Key Segments and Discussion Points

1. Minnesota Fraud Scandal & State Politics

With Rep. Pete Stauber (MN GOP)

• [03:15 to 15:19]
• Topic: A sweeping taxpayer fraud scandal in Minnesota, involving multiple state programs and lack of oversight under Governor Tim Walz.
• Key Issues:
  • Fraud estimates at $1.2–1.5 billion confirmed, potentially up to $8 billion (“biggest fraud story in the history of this nation”—[05:19], Pete Stauber).
  • Most notorious case: "Feeding Our Future" nonprofit—fake meal counts, false invoices, and kickbacks.
  • Whistleblowers (up to 1,000) repeatedly warned the Walz administration and state officials, to no avail.
  • Allegations that a significant portion of the fraud came from Minnesota's Somali community, with the initial fraud investigator being Somali himself ([10:02]).
  • Frustration with Attorney General Keith Ellison and lack of state/federal oversight.
  • Political context for 2026: Possible ouster of Gov. Walz and Rep. Ilhan Omar; potential for GOP resurgence due to public outrage.
• Notable Quotes:
  • “This is just the tip of the iceberg and... probably the biggest fraud story in the history of this nation.” — Pete Stauber [05:19]
  • “Minnesotans are not going to stand for it. We're great people... but we will not stand being taken advantage of.” — Pete Stauber [07:49]
  • “President Trump has now said we're going to investigate in our oversight committee.” — Pete Stauber [10:28]
  • “He let Minneapolis burn for three straight nights... lied to us and said he was in Tiananmen Square in 1989.” — Pete Stauber on Gov. Walz [12:53]

Tone: Outraged, urgent, framing the story as a catalyst for change in Minnesota politics.

2. US-Venezuela Tensions & Military Operations

With Mike Sorelli (Former Navy SEAL)

• [17:21 to 23:59]
• Topic: US intensifies military and counternarcotics presence near Venezuela after President Trump’s ultimatum to Maduro.
• Key Issues:
  • Trump gives Nicolas Maduro an ultimatum: resign immediately for safe passage, or face consequences.
  • Substantial US military assets, including USS Gerald R. Ford, deployed; recent lethal interdiction of drug-running vessels.
  • Special ops and interdiction missions are described as successful and necessary; “strike the target until it's down”—Mike Sorelli [19:42].
  • Danger of “mission creep” emphasized—importance of clear, limited objectives.
  • Sorelli doubts the need for ground intervention—prefers patient isolation and covert support for Venezuelan resistance.
• Notable Quotes:
  • “Strike a target until it's down... the right man is performing the job.” — Mike Sorelli [19:42]
  • “We need to display a little bit of that patience as we further isolate Maduro... Regime change will come, but we have to be patient.” — Mike Sorelli [21:41]
  • “We've got to assume that covert and clandestine operations are going on to support the resistance groups in Venezuela.” — Mike Sorelli [22:58]

Tone: Military expertise, hawkish but cautious, advocates for strength without overreach.

3. Economic Updates: Markets, Policy, and Children’s Investment Initiative

With Philip (Precious Metals Specialist) & Dan Geltrude (CPA)

• [26:01–30:02] (Philip Segment); [31:59–36:14] (Geltrude Segment)
• Topic 1: Crypto market collapse and gold’s stability, President Trump's new Fed chair pick, and Michael Dell’s $6.25B investment in “Trump accounts”.

• Notable Quotes:
  • “When liquidity tightens, the most speculative assets fall first... a canary in the coal mine for the broader economy.” — Philip [26:04]
  • “$6.4 billion for America’s children is absolutely massive. They will learn the power of compounded interest... give these kids the start that they need.” — Philip [28:51]
• Topic 2: Economy’s direction—record holiday sales, confidence in Trump’s economic policies, prospects for eliminating income tax.
  • Substantial online sales for Black Friday/Cyber Monday indicate recovery.
  • Dan Geltrude supports cautious optimism: “...We are in a state of repairing what's been done... it's getting better and it's going to get better. We just need a little time.” [33:26].
  • Skepticism about likelihood of no income tax (“a very tall order... not easy to take income tax out of our revenue equation at this point” — [35:41]).

Tone: Optimistic, pro-Trump, pragmatic when discussing policy implementation.

---

With Jim Pfaff (Conservative Caucus President)

• [39:11–44:19]
• Topic: Supreme Court allows Texas to implement new congressional redistricting ahead of 2026 midterms.
• Key Issues:
  • Supreme Court’s decision upholds Texas’ Republican-drawn map, expected to benefit the GOP; parallels drawn to Democrat redistricting in blue states.
  • Moves away from older, racially-driven gerrymandering toward “communities of interest.”
  • Pushback against independent commissions due to perceived susceptibility to bias.
  • Anticipates positive realignment for Republicans in Texas, Florida, Indiana, and more.
• Notable Quotes:
  • “The argument that it's somehow racist or racially based to do a politically focused map is absurd because for decades now we've had Democrat states doing that all the time.” — Jim Pfaff [40:19]
  • “This trend is actually positive. I don't think we want independent commissions drawing these maps... can be subject to worse problems.” — Jim Pfaff [41:23]

Tone: Strategic, combative, underscores fairness by “leveling the playing field.”

---

5. American Community Highlight: South Dakota Harvest

• [47:10–49:33]
• Topic: Neighbors complete farmer Randy Finesvold’s harvest after his sudden death.
  • Example of community, resilience, and American values.
  • 75+ volunteers, 12 combines, coordinated with 100 communities.

• [47:10–49:33]
• Question of the Day: “Why do you think it took nearly five years to arrest the D.C. pipe bomb suspect?”

Episode Flow & Tone

[Pete Stauber]

All right.

[Brian Glenn]

Welcome to america's Voice Live. I'm Brian Glenn filling in for the great Steve Gruber, who is at the White House gearing up for a potential executive order happening here soon. If it does, we'll dip into that and bring you live coverage. Today is Friday the 5th of December, in the year of our Lord 2025. Let's get to today's top stories. Always. Thank you for joining us. Right here on REAL America's Voice, President Trump demand Nicolas Maduro to step down, offering safe package only if he resigns immediately. Meanwhile, US Forces are ramping up counter drug operations in Venezuela. I'll ring a former Navy SEAL to discuss what we are seeing as the US Military mobilizes in that region. Also, the Democrat continued to push the narrative that the economy is heading for disaster. However, and recent sales for Black Friday show a different story. That along with the Trump accounts, hopefully no income tax. That's my favorite. I'd say the economy is repairing itself. More on that a little bit later. Well, later, the Supreme Court has allowed Texas to move forward with their redistricting efforts before the 2026 midterms. I'll discuss what this could mean for the year's elections. All the details coming your way today. But first, I want to start with what's been happening in Minnesota. We've heard that in the Oval Office. We've heard a little bit in the Cabinet as well. Things are definitely. Well, you've got to look out. Got to find out what's going on there in Minnesota. Joining me now is Pete Stauber. He's a congressman from Minnesota. Pete, thanks for coming on today's program. Lots happening in your state. But first, what is the very latest with this? What would be one of the biggest scandals in my opinion happening in that state as far as fleecing taxpayers of Minnesota, quite honestly could be about a billion dollars if I'm stand correct on that. But what's the very latest, Pete?

[Pete Stauber]

Brian, great to be with you. Listen, the state of Minnesota, the fraud that is taking place in the state of Minnesota Governor under Governor Walz and his administration is unconscionable. We believe right now we have about between 1.2 and 1.5 billion confirmed fraud. And the whistleblowers of There are about 1,000 whistleblowers in the state of Minnesota I'm hearing. And we figure it's going to be between 5 and 8 billion of fraud that's in Feeding our Future. The, the housing fraud and the autism fraud that's happening in Minnesota to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars. People are talking this is just the tip of the iceberg and it's going to I think it's going to probably be the biggest fraud story in the history of this nation. And it's directly under Governor Tim Walls, who's been just very, very disappointing in his lack of leadership in our great state.

[Brian Glenn]

Yeah. The scheme, totaling roughly $250 million, centers on this nonprofit called Feeding Our Future with partners with Minnesota and the Department of education and the U.S. department of Agriculture and all of this that provides meals to children. Did anybody see this coming? Has there been any type of conversations previous to this that could have warned lawmakers that this was going on?

[Pete Stauber]

Yeah, we have from the whistleblowers comments they were talking about. They let the Tim Walls and his administration know something's not right. When you go from a $2 million program to the next year 14 million and then five years later up to $400 million in fraud. And those whistleblowers in Minnesota, they have really helped us peel back the onion. And just look at the magnitude of fraud is unconscionable. As we peel back the onion and as a fraud committee in Minnesota peels back that onion, they're finding like literally millions of dollars of more fraud. And the fact is, Brian, the Secretary Rawlins, USDA secretary, asks for the roles for the SNAP program in Minnesota. And of course, Tim Walls and his administration will not provide those roles. There quite possibly could be SNAP fraud in Minnesota as well once we get information. But again, Tim Wallace has it's been a disaster. Minnesota needs to be rescued and we have to recover that great state because I want Minnesota, Brian, to be known as a great state for mining and timber and recreation and industry and and you name it, not fraud. And right now the, the state of Minnesota is, is, it's, it's unconscionable that we are on the news every day because of this, the magnitude of this fraud under this derelict Governor, unbelievable. We're not going to stand for, Minnesotans are not going to stand for it. We're great people. We give the shirt off our back to anybody, but we will not stand being taken advantage of. You know, just a couple of years ago, Brian, we had an $18 billion surplus. It's going to be turned into a $10 billion tax increase. And that is not right for Minnesota taxpayers and constituents across the great state of Minnesota.

[Brian Glenn]

Yeah. And President Trump talked about your grace state of Minnesota in the cabinet room the other day talking about the land of 10,000 lakes or he said, however many lakes they have, it's a beautiful state. Now prosecutors say that the group submitted fake meal counts and invoices claiming to feed thousands of kids, ranking in millions in administrative fees and kickback. I mean, at the end of the day, you kind of start to think, you know, how many people could this directly impact? And I've also said this the other day on the morning show, Congressman, that maybe there might be a reason why people travel from Somalia that has an average year round temperature of 81 degrees, one of the warmest regions on our planet. And why would they go to such a cold state like Minnesota where your average high in January barely gets out of the single digits. Could there be some type of communication from Minnesota down to Somalia making this an incentive to travel to your state and set up a residency? I mean, what's your thoughts on that? Speculation. And then that's just my, I'm just spitballing here, but that's kind of what I'm trying to find, some type of correlation between why they are migrating from Somalia to Minnesota.

[Pete Stauber]

Well, it's interesting because the fraud investigator, the original fraud investigator is a Somalian investigator and he had said we have to face the truth that nearly all of this fraud is coming from our community. So again, taking advantage of our benefits in for the wrong reasons and then not having accountability or looking the other way. We know that the, the Health and Human services members in the great state of Minnesota were alerting the Walls administration and the attorney general that this is not right does not seem to be right. And they turned a blind eye. That's why President Trump has now said we're going to, we're going to investig in our oversight committee. USDA Secretary Rollins and others, Treasury Secretary, Secretary Bessett is looking at these areas on where this money was taken. Taken from. And you talked about the feeding our future. They said to the, to the, to the federal government that they were feeding 5,000 kids a week. They didn't feed one child, not one. And so it's, it's, this is just the tip of the iceberg. From the information we're. Brian. That this is just the tip of the iceberg. That's why we believe there could be between 5 and 8 billion dollars of fraud. Like every single day. The more investigations we have, the more fraud we find out. And that Tim Walls has let this happen. He has turned a blind eye and so is our Attorney General Keith Ellison. And unfortunately, Tim Walls is running for a third unprecedented term in Minnesota. A third term. And just like the American people fire November, Minnesotans are going to fire Tim Walls next November. We cannot handle him any longer.

[Brian Glenn]

Well, that was going to be my next question, of course, in the cabinet meeting, President Trump bringing up Ilhan Omar, your congresswoman from Minnesota, not having very friendly words to say about her, called her a few names. What's some of the feedback that you've got with your constituents, not only in your district, but maybe what you're hearing around the state, Are they ready to finally move beyond having her in office? Is there anybody challenging her coming up in 26? And fast forward to.

The governor race that's potentially going to happen. Could Republicans have a formidable candidate for that to challenge any Democrat? And I don't know if waltz is he termed out? I don't know if he'd run it again. But is it, can we get a Republican in office? What I'm saying, can we take this and build on it to talk about the fraud that's happened and maybe perhaps put a Republican back in office?

[Pete Stauber]

I do believe, first off, we don't have term limits for governor in Minnesota. So that's why it's unprecedented for a governor to run for a third term. But yes, we can, in fact take the governorship back. We have strong Republican candidates in Minnesota that have entered the race. And if you look at Tim Walls from start to finish, remember in the summer of love in 2020, he let Minneapolis burn for three straight nights. And then he lied to us and said he was in Tiananmen Square in 1989. And then he lied to a group of people stating that he carried weapons in war. And he lied to people when he said his children were because of in vitro, IVF rather. And that's not true. None of it was true. And so when we look at when we look at what he's done, what he he's damaged the reputation of Minnesota. And you asked about the constituents. I don't care if you're Republican or Democrat. I'm all over the state of Minnesota. They have had it with Tim Walls and his lack of responsibility and what he's done to the state of Minnesota. This fraud is just another example of he and his administration, the failed leadership. And Minnesota residents are starting to see this. You see, once he got on the national stage, we all knew it in Minnesota that the Twin Cities media was covering and shielding him. Once he became the second pick for Kamala Harris, vice presidential candidate, once he became that second pick, the national media exposed him. He had nowhere to hide. And all these things and much more are coming out right now from state workers, from investigations and from Democrats themselves.

[Brian Glenn]

Yeah, it's unbelievable how at the end of the day, they all kind of expose themselves because you can only hide for so long. Congressman, I appreciate your time today. How can people keep up with you on social media and all the things that are happening in Minnesota?

[Pete Stauber]

You can rep. PETE Stauber, I'm on X and Facebook and what have you. But just appreciate Brian having me on. And again, we're going to rescue Minnesota. Minnesota is going to lead the nation once we remove walls next November in that election.

[Brian Glenn]

All right. Sounds good to me. Stay warm up there in the frozen Minnesota. Appreciate it.

[Mike Sorelli]

I will.

[Brian Glenn]

All right. Certainly a big story that unfolded right in front of us. All right, coming up after the break, I'll bring on a former Navy SEAL to discuss what we are seeing in the Caribbean in the Eastern Pacific as a conflict between Venezuela and the United States continues. More details straight ahead right here on this very special edition of America's Voices live. We'll be right back.

[Brian Glenn]

All right. Welcome in. Brian Glenn filling in for the great Steve Gruber who is at the White House on standby if what was scheduled to be a 3 o' clock executive order, if that opens up to the press, perhaps our very own Steve Gruber will be in there right now. I just got word that they're still at the Kennedy center. As President Trump was dealing with the big FIFA drawing, all the countries get to draw the different brackets and stuff. Very exciting news there. So we'll, we'll keep an eye on that, make sure it opens up when. Late November, President Trump delivered a direction ultimatum to Venezuela's Nicolas Madero demanding the embattled socialist leader either step down immediately or face. Well, we'll find out. According to reports, the warning came as a tense phone call in which the White House offered a safe package for Maduro and his wife and Flores and some of their son. But not only did they dictator agree to resign on the spot, that's only if he agreed to design on the spot. The pressure comes as the Trump administration continues to a significant military buildup in the Caribbean, positioning advanced US Assets including USS Gerald R. Ford near the Venezuelan waters. In the meantime, US Forces intensifying counternarcotics operations. Love the boat strikes, by the way, which on Thursday, the military destroyed another suspected drug running vessel in the eastern Pacific, killing four men. The Pentagon labeled, quote, narco terrorists. I call them the same thing. Officials say the boat belonged to a designated terrorist organization and was moving illegal drugs along a well known trafficking corridor. Joining me now to unpack all of this is former Navy SEAL Mike Surreal. Mike, thank you so much for joining us. You know, it's been, I've been in the Oval and I've been in the cabinet meetings where this topic has come up and the media loves to talk about. Well, was the secondary shot necessary? You hit the boat, you found out two guys were still alive you took them out, too. I don't think that's a bad thing. I think when you. When it comes to fighting narco terrorists, you do it at any. At any measure. But what's your take on what's going on right now? It seems like we are winning the war on stopping these boats coming to the US with these drugs, are we not?

[Mike Sorelli]

We absolutely are. Brian, let me address your first point 1. I served directly for Admiral Mitch Bradley. He's been doing this, the entire global war on terror, these type of strikes. You strike a target until it's down. He is sitting around a group of JAGS lawyers who are advising him on the rules of war. So he is well within his right. And I think the Democratic lawmakers underestimated his experience and that the right man is performing the job. So you are right. It is working. We're seeing a surge of narco boats coming out of Venezuela. Why is that a surge? Because it's a sign of desperation whenever you want to make somebody desperate hit their profit line. And that's what's happening. But this is leading to further isolation of Maduro in Venezuela. We're seeing Moscow and Beijing pull back because this is within the Western Hemisphere and it wouldn't be good optics for them to continue to support and fund Maduro. Here's my fear, though, and this is what I'll say. We keep hearing about a surge of troops because this is maritime interdiction with special operations in the lead with Marine and naval assets supporting them. And again, that is working. But if you surge troops, make sure that they are tight objectives with very clear measurables so that we avoid mission creep like you saw in the Gulf War when we took down Iraq. So we've got to be very careful there and make sure that we are not overreaching. What the intent here is that President Trump is trying to effectively.

Implement regime change.

[Brian Glenn]

Yeah. And that's kind of what it appears to be. And of course, the next question that I'm going to ask you, and I hear it a lot in these Cabinet meetings or the last one I was in, and of course, I hear in the Oval Office a lot in the briefing room, is, would we strike on land? Would we send either troops or weapons onto land to take out these narco terrorists? Do you see that being a possibility?

[Mike Sorelli]

So I think the question is, could we? We absolutely could. With a Marine Expeditionary Unit staged forward, they have the capability, both aerial and with the support of the Navy, to conduct littoral invasions and grab terrain. They are absolutely capable of doing that. Is there a reason to do it? I don't think so. What we're doing in terms of that isolation of Maduro and Venezuela is working. You know, the east often has a long term view on things and they're patient. We need to display a little bit of that patience as we further isolate Maduro's, we take his funding away. I mean we're diplomatically, geographically, financially isolating him. Regime change will come, but we have to be patient and let these operations have that intended effect. And when it comes to the American people, sometimes we're not so patient with that.

[Brian Glenn]

Yeah. And I know that the people of Venezuela are probably, I would think, supportive of what's going on. Not only do they don't want to see drugs go into another country, but then they also see this very evil dictator, if I can use lack of a better terms. So what is next? We got about a minute and a half left. How long do you think this goes on for? And what's the next step in terms of what we do? And then what do you think the people of Venezuela does?

[Mike Sorelli]

So the surgeon troop in the correct troops, troops to the task that's at hand. Maritime interdiction in the assets is important because what you'll see them do is with this surge of narco boats, they're going to mix up routes or what you call lanes, Trinidad Tobago, Dominican Republic, Haiti, they're going to try to find every maritime lane to make it through our forces. So that is the justification for the surge in the right set of troops and the assets. But is the likelihood that Maduro is going to step down? Probably not. I mean, we remember back to Panama with individuals like this, they're so confident, so arrogant in their power that they won't step down. That is where the regime changed from within. And we've got to assume that covert and clandestine operations are going on to support the resistance groups in Venezuela and support them to take down Maduro internally. That would be, in my view, if I was president for a day, the ultimate objective I would be trying to achieve without putting forces on the ground.

[Brian Glenn]

Yeah. Mike Sorelli, thank you so much for joining us on this Friday. Hope you have a fantastic weekend. Thanks for your insight on all of this. We appreciate it.

All right.

[Brian Glenn]

Welcome back to America's Voice Live. I am Brian Glenn. Steve Gruber is at the White House. He's posted up in case President Trump opens up that 3 o', clock, which, which now, you know, a little bit after 3 o', clock, the executive orders will dip into that if it happens. So if you watch the markets, you probably know that crypto took a recent hit. Now, however, gold has remained above $4,000. Mark Rav's very own Bo Davidson spoke with a precious metals specialist earlier this week. Take a look.

[Ryan Reynolds]

First off, Philip, what's going on with crypto right now?

[Philip (Precious Metals Specialist)]

It has been an interesting couple of months to say the least. We've seen nearly a billion dollars in leveraged crypt wiped out in 24 hours. We saw a small recovery today, but that was on top of $19 billion liquidation cascade that hit early October. Bitcoin at the moment is down almost 10% year to date. The lower tier altcoins, the bottom half of the top 100, they're down roughly 70% for the year so far. In my mind, this isn't a random sell off. This is the unwinding of hidden leverage that's built up when everything was rallying and doing very well. And I think traders are finally admitting that they don't know how much leverage is really in the financial system because exchanges don't disclose this data. What we do know, though, is about $4.6 billion has been abandoned from the bitcoin market over the last week or so. Put it simply, when liquidity tightens, the most speculative assets fall first. So I think what we're seeing in the crypto markets could be the canary in the coal mine for broader economy.

[Ryan Reynolds]

Philip, you know, President Trump has said he's chosen his next Fed chair. How does that change the situation currently?

[Philip (Precious Metals Specialist)]

Look, normally a new Fed chair is sort of glossed over by financial markets, but today I think it's much more important than, than it would be. Interest costs on the national debt are over $2 trillion a year. So the stakes are very, very high. The President clearly understands this and that's why I think this appointment matters so much. Well, off Fed chair support lower interest rates to relieve the debt burden. Are they going to prioritize inflation control and raise rates at the cost of slowing the economy? Investors at the moment are trading off two realities. They know that Washington cannot afford higher rates, but at the same time, the Fed can't really justify very big rate cuts without risking another inflation flare up. So I think until we have clarity and the policy direction becomes clear, I expect to see a little bit more volatility in every corner of the financial sector.

[Ryan Reynolds]

And Philip, finally just to touch on the announcement that was made right before we came on air here, which is with regard to the Trump accounts and Michael Dell's huge investment, I believe it's $6.25 billion, which will be $250 to 25 million kids who are in kind of lower income areas. This is a huge private investment from a very well known wealthy man. Do you think we're going to see more private investment like this? And is this a really good sign of things to come during this administration for the future of children learning the concept of compound interest and what that can do for them in terms of what they say is educating a new.

[Philip (Precious Metals Specialist)]

Generation of capitalists, the answer is absolutely yes. And this is just another sign of how President Trump has attracted a ton of investment. This specifically, though, $6.4 billion for America's children is absolutely massive. They will learn the power of compounded interest. As you say, $250 over an 18 year period will be tens of thousands of dollars and it could give these kids the start that they need. As we know, it's become much more difficult for middle class and working class Americans to just make ends meet. To give children a leg up in this climate, I think is huge. And like I said, it's just a sign of how President Trump does business. Really encouraging. And obviously kudos to Michael Dell and his wife. It's a huge charitable donation and it's to the most important thing, our children. I mean, it's incredible.

[Ryan Reynolds]

Yeah, And I think one thing that's so cool about it, Philip, is I have a very young child. He's under two. And just the concept of investing in the notion of family, the nuclear family unit, is something we haven't heard about in a long time. The incentive is now is for the family. And I think that that's a really great thing that he's doing.

[Brian Glenn]

Yeah, I think that is absolutely awesome. And I know that our own Steve Gruber was in the Roosevelt Room whenever Michael Dell and his wife made that announcement. Announcement. That $6 billion announcement is incredible. All right. Well, text the word America to the number 989-898 today to claim your free information kit on gold Once again. That's America to 989-898. Now, coming up after the break, the Democrats continue to say, wait a minute, the economy is heading towards disaster. However, Black Friday sales and Cyber Monday sales say otherwise. And on top of that, President Trump recently wrote out the Trump accounts that touted the idea of no income tax. More on this coming up on abl. Stick around.

[iHeart Podcast Announcer]

[Brian Glenn]

All right. Welcome back to American Voice live. Steve Gruber is at the White House. We'll get to him if something was to break there. Okay. The Democrats continue to push the narrative that the economy is headed for disaster. Now, however, Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales show a completely different story. The United States saw a record sales for Black Friday and Cyber Monday with more than $11.8 billion in online sales alone. On top of that, Monday, the President Trump rolled out what's called Trump accounts as ensuring American children have a jump on investing to secure their future. And he received a $6.25 billion investment from Mike O' Dell and his wife for the cause. Great stuff there. President Trump also touted the idea of no income tax, an idea that most Americans like me would love, without a doubt. Despite what the Democrats say, the economy is repairing itself. In four years, a failed Biden economy, even gas prices have continued to drop, with an average this morning of $2.75 a gallon. Here to discuss that, and a whole lot more. As the founder of Geltrude and Company, America's accountant, Dan Geltrude. Hey, was there anything I said that was not true in that open. I mean, look, we've all seen gas prices go down. We've seen a lot of the economy rebound. Record sales on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. What say you?

[Dan Geltrude]

Well, to answer your question there, Brian, you were, you were right on point. So what people have to understand is right now, we are in a state of repairing what's been done. Now people are impatient. They want things to get better right away. But of course, that's not how it works. Remember this, when you're deep in a hole, you stop, stop digging. So those are the first steps that President Trump had to take. We had to stop digging the hole. Now the question becomes we need some time for his policies to take hold in order to be able to climb out of the hole. So I know there's a lot of people out there that are feeling the pain, but all we could say right now is it's getting better and it's going to get better. We just need a little time.

[Brian Glenn]

Yeah, I agree. I agree. A lot of these changes that he's done with the tariffs, bringing manufacturing back to the U.S. that takes time. But does it say that the consumer confidence of people are willing to go out and buy gifts at record amounts that they believe and they trust that Trump has a better plan for the economy and they put a lot of trust in him. Hence the consumer confidence.

[Dan Geltrude]

Well, yes. I mean, the numbers don't lie. People are clearly spending money. We have to go behind the curtain a little bit because we do see personal debt for Americans rising to the highest levels ever, like with credit cards. And we have to be really concerned right now because we haven't gotten the interest rates down as low as President Trump would like them to be. But of course, that's another story. So either way, when people are spending, whether it's out of their savings account or their earnings or whether they're taking on debt, they're going to do that if they believe that things are going to improve. So, yes, the numbers do indicate that there is confidence in what lies ahead.

[Brian Glenn]

Okay, last question. We got about 30 seconds. Real quickly, no income tax, obviously it's pretty popular amongst the people. But is that very realistic that we can actually get Congress, the Senate to vote that and pass that and put it into law?

[Dan Geltrude]

I think that would be a very tall order for President Trump to be able to pull that off. Is it popular? Do people want it? Absolutely. But let's not forget the level of debt this country has. So it would not be easy to take income tax out of our revenue equation at this point.

[Brian Glenn]

Yeah, I agree. Dan, thank you so much for joining us. I hope you have a fantastic weekend and we look forward to hearing a little bit more about this as we this Trump economy goes on.

[Dan Geltrude]

Thanks, Brian.

[Brian Glenn]

[Brian Glenn]

Hi, welcome back. Well, after some deliberation, the Supreme Court of the United States has allowed Texas to go ahead with this redistricting map. That's a good thing. A lower court injunction previously had the fate of this new congressional map in limbo since it argued that the map was drawn exclusively in favor of Republicans and considered face, you know, factors like race. But with the Supreme Court's ruling, the map now can be implemented into further elections, notable the upcoming 2026 midterms. Joining me now to talk about that and a whole lot more is president of the Conservative Caucus, Jim Pfaff. Jim, we were talking right before we came on that this, I mean, this is, it's surprising. But then it's not because it seems like so much has will come out of the Supreme Court in favor of the trouble. I think the 20th victory that he's had there. But what does that mean to Texas and where some people have to perhaps now run again? And maybe what would you could be predominantly Republican districts and they may not win if they're a Democrat. Yeah.

[Jim Pfaff]

Well, I mean, when you have this amount of change, obviously it shakes things up. Indiana's House and I'm here in Indiana right now, they have a map where they are going to radically transform those districts. It's going to shake a lot up as well. They're going to lose two Democrat seats. But what, you know, the interesting thing about this is that you look at Democrat states, I mean, the argument that it's somehow racist or racially based to do a politically focused map is absurd because for decades now we've had Democrat states doing that all the time. And you know, the thing that it does is it's finally Republicans deciding that they are going to counter one of the key things that Democrats have been doing to put, try to keep them from having any effect on the national stage. And that is drawing districts in a way.

That might be politically beneficial for one party or the other. Democrat. Like I say, Democrats have been doing that forever. But the other interesting thing about this map is it actually, instead of being racially based, it actually brings in a more effectively a principle that should be for balance maps, which is communities of interest. You know, you've got these snake lines that run through various states and they're often done. They were done to create racial districts often, but they've also been done for political purposes. And you have people in rural parts of states going into metropolitan parts of the states. This is particularly so in Illinois. This map actually fixes some of those problems that did exist in Texas. It was actually gerrymandered in the wrong way, so to speak. So this trend is actually positive. I don't think we want independent commissions drawing these maps because those independent commissions can be subject to worse problems than just asking the politicians to do it. So actually I think this is a very healthy thing. It's certainly beneficial for Republicans. And there's more to come. We got Florida to come. If Indiana passes this map, that, that, that's going to make a difference too. And I actually think it's a positive realignment.

[Brian Glenn]

Yeah. What about the response from California? And I know Gavin Newsom was, was, you know, told Greg Abbott, if you do this, then we're going to do this. I mean, what do you see California holding strong with their redistricting efforts?

[Jim Pfaff]

Oh, I would suppose so, yeah. Against their Constitution. They did pass a popularly elected constitutional amendment to go to an independent commission. Again, I don't, I'm not a big fan of independent commissions, but that is the process that they had. And frankly, Texas looks like the pristine one here because Gavin Newsom and his crowd have decided to thwart what they had already put into place during Arnold Schwarzenegger's administration. But again, we need to recognize that states have to make sure that their states are represented positively. And if Democrats are going to decide to gerrymander their states, then Republican oriented states need to do the same thing. It's absolutely fair. If they're going to do their process, then, you know, the Republicans need to do the same. They've been weak on it. Up to this point and I'm glad to see we've changed it.

[Brian Glenn]

Yeah, I am too, Jim. It should be very interesting as we move ahead to the 2026 midterms and the fallout of this and maybe how many people just decide to get out of politics altogether knowing that they're snake like districts, they're not able to win. Jim, thank you so much. I hope you have a great holiday going into the next couple of weeks into Christmas. Thank you so much for joining us.

[Jim Pfaff]

Thanks so much. Good to see you.

[Brian Glenn]

Good to see you. All right. Good stuff there. All right. Well, there's a lot of politicians who should be, let's just be honest, getting some coal in their stockings for Christmas.

So for every $5,000 you purchase between now and December 22nd, the Birch Gold Group will send you one ounce.

An ounce of silver. That's pretty cool. Which is up to over 60% this year. See, smart people diversify and have a hedge. That's why I encourage you right now to buy gold from the Birch Gold Group. With the rate cuts from the feds in 2026, the dollar will be worthless. And what happens to AI bubble burst? That's another conversation. Diversify.

[Brian Glenn]

All right. Welcome back to avl. Steve Gruber is at the White House. I am filling in for today for him. So we'll cut over there if he's got something up. All right. What makes America wonderful? We do it every day. Hopefully it puts a smile on your face. It puts a smile on my face. Today's story comes from us from South Dakota, where a community rallied together to finish the harvest of a farmer who tragically passed away. Now, Randy Finesvold was a beloved figure in his community but unfortunately passed away this September due to a crash near his home. He was at the age of 43. Now, after giving his family some time to grieve, Randy's neighbors rallied, examined the deceased farmers remaining harvest, including soil, beans, canola and more than 1,000 acres of corn. An affair that would require a lot of hands on deck there. Implementing the strategy on divide and Conquer, roughly 75 volunteers, 12 combines and additional help from more than 100 communities work together to harvest about 1400 acres of corn in just a matter of days. Giving a helping hand, it's always nice gesture, but the effort shown by Randy Feingfold's friends remind us of what makes America so wonderful. So here's the question of the day. Why do you think it took nearly five years to arrest the D.C. pipe bomb suspect? We'll go to the answer here. Greg Quinn says they were too busy locking up grandmas. I can't argue with that. Katherine says because it was all a setup. Perhaps Brett dropping in last administration intentionally ignored the evidence. That is true. I would agree with you on that. Mike says why they couldn't just be bothered to. They were too Busy completing the J6 setup. A lot of theories on that. Scott dropping in. Incompetence is a hell of a thing. Tommy Biden's FBI was looking with their eyes closed. They didn't want to find him. They thought they had some Kind of connection with him in the first place. Now, this is. This is interesting. On this, they had a suspect, they thought it was a female that perhaps worked for the department that got dismissed. Now this other guy comes up, Brian Cole, age 30. We'll find out how that falls in. Look, I want to go straight to Eric Bolling, spend a few minutes with him. Eric.

[Eric Bolling]

Yeah, I'm here. I'm here, my man.

[Brian Glenn]

I'm here.

[Eric Bolling]

We're checking out the lighting, Brian. We're looking at our life. They got the spotlights in here like it's basketball stadium because we have Sheriff Blam with us, who be at the top of the hour right after we do.

[Brian Glenn]

Oh, I love Sheriff.

[Eric Bolling]

Hey, this is really cool to see you, brother. Usually I. I think I saw you making a snow angel this morning. And I said, the guys. Well, if we're gonna. Brian's coming on 4 o'. Clock. He's better be like, I don't know, maybe a snow devil. Because it's four o'. Clock.

[Pete Stauber]

I don't know.

[Eric Bolling]

Maybe.

[Brian Glenn]

Yeah. Well, I don't. You know, it reminds me back in the days when I did morning television. And Eric, I gotta be honest with you, and I'll be very transparent with our audience, I almost got fired just about every time I went out because they said, hey, go do something fun. Show us some energy. It's the morning show and you're allowed to do that. So today I tapped into my inner morning show anchor, our field reporter. And Terrence Bates said, hey, I dare you to go do a snow angel. And I looked around, I legitimately looked for Secret Service and said, oh, I don't. I think we're probably good to go. And so there you have it. And, yeah, the thing that they don't.

[Eric Bolling]

Want to do is tell Brian Glenn or Eric Bolling to go do something crazy on television, because they just might.

[Brian Glenn]

Yeah.

[Eric Bolling]

You know what they say, you know, be careful what you wish for, because I think you probably get something. Something nuts. Now, now, did you do it on the White House lawn?

[Brian Glenn]

I did it right there. Well, I did right there in the. In front of the west wing. The grass is in front of the west wing, which.

[Eric Bolling]

Oh, yeah, yeah, I know.

[Brian Glenn]

Yeah, I know.

[Eric Bolling]

That grass ass over there, the one by the portico.

[Brian Glenn]

Or.

[Eric Bolling]

Or over by the actual lawn in front of the White House.

[Brian Glenn]

The one by the portico.

[Eric Bolling]

Yeah.

[Brian Glenn]

Well. You. Okay, well, yeah, yeah, it was good stuff. It was fun.

[Eric Bolling]

Secret Service didn't give you a hard time because they usually lock that thing down or that I forgot It's Brian freaking Glenn from Real America's Voice. They're not Secret Service. Ain't messing with Brian Glenn. I got that.

[Brian Glenn]

No, I don't know about that. Hey, what do we have coming up on the show today? I know you mentioned Sheriff, Sheriff Mark Lamb.

[Pete Stauber]

He.

[Eric Bolling]

Yes, sir. Yeah, we got Sheriff Mark Lamb and then the B block. We have Andrew Colvitt from TP usa, CEO of the Charlie Kirk show and all things Charlie Kirk and TP usa. We're going to talk a little bit about the Amfest, a big, big event happening in later, a couple of weeks from now.

[Brian Glenn]

And I know that you've been watching crypto and bitcoin. I know that's been kind of going up and down a little bit. What's the latest on that?

[Eric Bolling]

Oh, you're gonna have me tell you exactly what the latest this is because that is giving everyone. Ajita89,295 head down to 80,000, you know, 127, 80,000 back up to 94 and back down to 89.

So put our seat belts on for the week. I love seeing Brian. This is, this is cool.

[Brian Glenn]

I heard you had diamond hands though. You have diamond hands though.
