Congressional Budget Showdown & ICE Funding Debate
Discussed: 02:25–09:45 (Key quote 03:29, 04:49, 06:37, 08:15)
-
Host Grant Stinchfield launches into the looming threat of a government shutdown due to disputes over DHS funding.
- Frames Democrats as obstructionists, accusing them of grandstanding by threatening to defund ICE (Immigrations, Customs Enforcement)—while pointing out ICE remains funded even in a shutdown.
- Points to overlooked impacts: TSA, Coast Guard, and FEMA will be affected, not ICE.
- Quote (03:29):
- President Trump: “We always have to protect our law enforcement. Very important. They've done a great job. Remember, they've taken out hundreds of thousands of criminals out of our country.”
-
Senator Chuck Schumer's clip is played, vowing no Democratic votes to fund ICE without "strong, meaningful reforms."
-
Grant's Rebuke:
- “Rein in the man. Defund them. What are you talking about? ICE again will be funded even if you do and did walk out of Washington, turn your backs on the American people.” (04:23)
- Notes even CNN and mainstream media concede the Democrats' stance is largely political grandstanding. (04:49)
-
Brian Glenn (Chief White House Correspondent) is brought on (05:27):
- Blames both parties, noting both have left town and won’t return until February 23rd, drawing attention to the 60,000 TSA workers, 20,000 FEMA employees, and Coast Guard left in limbo.
- Suggests Democrats believe their anti-ICE stance will energize voters in the midterms, although both he and Stinchfield express skepticism about its viability.
- Quote (06:37):
- “This cannot play well in the elections because, look, you've got two weeks and you let these TSA workers go, go another government shutdown for another two weeks. … This is Schumer shutdown 3.0 on this, without a doubt.”
- Both lambaste lawmakers for leaving for a climate conference in Munich during the crisis.
The Nancy Guthrie Case – FBI/Local Feud & Developments
Discussed: 09:50–17:15; Updated 12:41–15:26
-
Host revisits his early reporting on inter-agency tensions in the Nancy Guthrie investigation. FBI wanted forensic evidence processed at Quantico; the local sheriff insisted on a Florida lab, escalating into a public feud.
- The host observes the case has “come to … almost a halt” with no suspects or leads.
-
On Cartel/Nation-State Theories:
- President Trump: “It's somebody either do what they were doing very well or they were rank amateurs. Either way, it's not a good situation.” (11:34)
-
FBI Involvement:
- Caroline Levitt (12:03): “The FBI … has been on the ground … and we are offering the full resources and weight of the federal government to help local authorities bringing this case to an end, to bring Nancy Guthrie home.”
-
Field Correspondent Kevin Posobiec (live from Tucson, AZ, 12:41):
- Reports bomb squad and SWAT activity, hinting at a possible suspect being brought in.
- Reveals local law enforcement's internal strife and sheriff's checkered history, with the case still very much in flux (13:59).
- Describes normalcy at the Guthrie residence, illustrating “business as usual” despite the ongoing investigation.
-
Surveillance Video Details:
- Explains the recovery of footage due to a technical quirk—the perpetrator removed the camera, preserving the cache that has aided the investigation (15:26).
Trump’s Climate Agenda Rollback
Discussed: 17:15–25:14 (Key quotes: 18:42, 21:47, 24:44)
-
Climate Policy Rollbacks Spark Media Backlash:
- Trump administration eliminates federal authority to regulate climate under the EPA, including reversing Obama-era auto stop-start mandates and withdrawing from the 1992 Rio Earth Summit Treaty.
-
Mark Morano (Climate Depot publisher, 18:42):
- Declares this a “monumental” bureaucratic rollback, promising lower car costs and an end to “the almost universally despised start stop feature”—seen as a useless “accounting trick.”
- Quote (18:42):
- “These were all regulations imposed during the Obama administration on the issue of auto stop start…literally just an accounting trick…does nothing.”
-
On Regulatory Overreach:
- Asserts climate change became a pretext for “unelected mid-level bureaucrats at the EPA [to] regulate every aspect of the US Economy … without a consent or vote of Congress.”
- Emphasizes the legal importance of reversing the EPA’s “CO2 endangerment finding” to hamstring future Democratic administrations.
- Quote (21:47):
- “This was the legal justification for all of the net zero green New Deal climate agenda imposed on America. … So what they did is use this, which was authorized by the Supreme Court…able to justify anything and everything.”
-
Gavin Newsom at Munich Conference:
- Newsom contends Trump’s climate rollbacks are “temporary,” promising California remains a “stable and reliable partner" on climate issues. Morano counters the changes aim for “permanence” (24:44).
Los Angeles Mayoral Race: The Progressive “Spoiler”
Discussed: 27:42–35:33
-
Host attacks Democratic candidate Nithya Raman, presenting her progressive proposals (seizing private housing, jail closures without alternatives, renewable energy by 2035, unarmed policing, decriminalizing drugs, noncitizen voting).
-
Critics (e.g., Spencer Pratt) blast Raman as a “lunatic activist” and flip-flopper, referencing her prior calls to “defund the police”.
-
Jennifer Horn (Morning Answer host, 29:48):
- Illustrates the mechanics: DSA-endorsed Raman is entering to syphon votes and take down more moderate challengers, possibly ensuring a two-Democrat runoff.
- Warns of her history as “urban planner/activist” and calls her “dangerous because she knows how to lie and people don't know enough about her.”
- Quote (31:56):
- “So Nithya Rahman is seen as a spoiler in this race, but she also has a really bad reputation, Grant. … Very, very liberal … looking to say whatever she thinks it'll take to get elected.”
-
Homelessness Spending in LA:
- Reports only 10% of a $418 million homelessness budget actually went to housing; highlights astronomical costs of programs like Inside Safe ($86,000+ per homeless person/year).
Body Language Analysis: Nancy Guthrie Suspect & More
Discussed: 38:00–45:54
- Grant brings on Greg Hartley (Body Language Analyst, 38:00):
- Hartley breaks down security footage of the suspect—emphasizes evidence of prior reconnaissance and possible teamwork (multiple suspects, possible spotter).
- Quote (39:15):
- “The person here is showing … The only thing that makes me wonder if this person knows her is they seem to be okay with their face being exposed after they start doing this. Could indicate they're not very smart. Could indicate they're under some kind of substance. There's all kinds of things that could indicate.”
- Discusses signs of stress and unconscious behaviors in a possibly innocent man previously detained (blink rate, dropped gestures during awkward questions).
- Assesses Jennifer Newsom (CA First Lady) at a Planned Parenthood event, reading her body language as stressed and uncomfortable.
COVID Vaccine, Cancer Spike & “Shield”
Discussed: 47:53–52:52
- Host links rising colorectal cancer rates in young people to COVID vaccines, introduces Dr. James Thorpe (Wellness Company).
- Dr. Thorpe (48:45):
- Claims mass “explosive” increases in certain cancers are “now irrefutable,” citing large studies in Italy and Korea.
- Recommends testing spike protein antibody levels and promotes supplements (notably “SHIELD” and “Ultimate Spike Detox”) marketed by The Wellness Company as preventative actions.
- Quote (48:45):
- “COVID 19 vaccines caused a massive increase in cancer, explosive cancers…This is now irrefutable. … Both of these studies show…anywhere from 4 to 8 fold increase in these cancers.”
- Pushes product lines as necessary defenses alongside “not smoking, weight loss, exercise, diet.”
- Host concludes with a direct call to action: “If you took the vaccine, get on the Spike Detox, get on SHIELD and take control of your life back.” (51:44)
Quick Hits & Memorable Moments
-
45:54–47:53:
- Grant teases a Don Lemon court appearance; highlights protesters with purple sex toys as odd, tongue-in-cheek symbolism.

- “A purple monster is what we call that. Why sex toys? What does that have to do anything? Oh, I know why. Maybe because all of them are real. Richard Noggins.”
-
