The Elite's Disdain for American Citizens
February 26, 2020 20:00 - 11 minutes - 10.8 MBPeople thought the Washington Post was channeling The Onion or The Babylon Bee when they saw the saw the outrageous op-ed headline, "It's Time to Give the Elites a Bigger Say in Choosing the President." At this point, the liberal/leftist Elites are no longer even trying to hide their contempt for the rest of us and desire to rule over all. In their paper of choice, they are saying you are not worthy to decide who should be president, but they are. And elitist Bloomberg thinks anyone can be a ...
Democrat/Media Hypocrisy on Secret Meeting with Iran
February 24, 2020 20:00 - 9 minutes - 8.4 MBA group of Democrat senators had a secret meeting in a foreign country with the foreign minister of Iran--the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism, who himself is a designated terrorist. And there is silence from the mainstream media. Yet just a few years ago, they and Democrats created an uproar when a group of Republican senators published an open letter to Iran re the Obama Iran deal. Yet another example of the hypocrisy of the Democratic party and the fake news media! You can also ...
The Two-Tiered Justice System in America
February 21, 2020 20:00 - 20 minutes - 18.9 MBSo many Americans were crushed and despondent when they heard the news that the Department of Justice was not going pursue criminal charges against corrupt senior FBI official Andrew McCabe. Many lost faith and confidence in the system of justice in this country, which they now see as a two-tiered justice system--one for the corrupt swamp who gets away with everything and the other for the rest of us. But I see there is a positive aspect into what happened in that it reveals what is going on ...
Trump Will Win Because Democrat Candidates are UNINSPIRING
February 19, 2020 20:00 - 15 minutes - 14.1 MBIn today's episode, I talk about the 2020 Presidential Campaign and how the Democrats are doing. They have a weak field of Democratic candidates and none of them are inspiring. They are also floundering in many areas, including technology. Because of their weak position, I expect the Democrats and the mainstream media to ramp up their attacks and pressure on President Trump because that's all they have left. Yet, when their largest value is POWER (the need to get power back at all costs), tha...

February 18, 2020 20:00 - 10 minutes - 9.39 MBThe Virginia Democrat's continual assault on the Second Amendment ramped up when the House of Delegates passed a broad gun control (aka people control) bill called HB 961.

Entire Roger Stone Case was Politically-Motivated by the Democrats/Deep State from Day One
February 17, 2020 15:00 - 15 minutes - 14.5 MBThe Democrats and mainstream media are saying the reduction of the completely outrageous sentencing recommendation of Roger Stone is political and blame Trump and Barr. But this is just another one of their many projections because the truth is the whole investigation, prosecution and sentencing of Roger Stone from the very start was politically-motivated by the Democrats and Deep State.

Personnel is Policy so Trump Should Fire People Who Undermine His Agenda
February 14, 2020 21:12 - 10 minutes - 9.25 MBIt is ridiculous that Vindman and Sondland are being treated as martyrs for being kicked out of the National Security Council when President Trump has every right to remove those around him who don't support his agenda--and they were actively working against it. In Washington, DC this is called, "Personnel is Policy." After all, would any Democrat/Liberal have wanted a staunch conservative working against President Obama in the White House? Drain the Swamp!

Media Ignore Attacks on MAGA by Unhinged Left
February 13, 2020 22:34 - 14 minutes - 12.9 MBWhy is the mainstream media silent on attacks by the Left on those who support President Trump? Such as in the recent example of a Trump hater plowing his vehicle into a Republican voter registration tent in Florida, barely missing the elderly people inside? Yet if the roles were reversed, we'd never hear the end of it in the media for days and weeks on end.

New Attempt to Stifle Constitutionalists in the Law Field
February 12, 2020 20:00 - 9 minutes - 8.66 MBA recent ethics proposed ethics rule shows a broader movement to stifle judges and lawyers who are Constitutionalists and conservatives by trying to ban them from joining the legal organization, The Federalist Society, which doesn't get involved in legal cases. Yet there is no ruling against joining the American Bar Association, which has a history of pushing the liberal/progressive agenda in court cases.

Super Bowl Halftime Show and the Latino Vote
February 11, 2020 20:00 - 12 minutes - 11.8 MBThe Super Bowl halftime show showcased the amazing music and dancing of Jennifer Lopez and Shakira--and the power of the Latino vote. Even though I don't like it when stars insert their politics into entertainment, it is encouraging to find that the Latino community in America has greatly benefited from the policies of the Trump administration in many ways. As shown by the powerful performance during the halftime shows, the Latino vote is not to be ignored. You can also watch this episode he...

Best SOTU Ever, but Democrats showed they are the Party of Death and Destruction
February 08, 2020 02:42 - 18 minutes - 17.1 MBPresident Trump's State of the Union address was the best I have ever heard. He spoke of so many wonderful accomplishments and positive things for our country. The stories of his guests were very inspiring and moving. But who didn't move were the Democrats, mostly sitting on their hands the whole time and refusing to acknowledge the good things President Trump was talking about. They were an embarrassment and their actions showed themselves to be the Party of Death and Destruction, while the ...
What Happened with the Iowa Caucus?
February 07, 2020 00:09 - 7 minutes - 6.81 MBThe Democrat's Iowa Caucus is a mess with low voter turnout and no clear winner. What happened? And what of Bloomberg massively pouring money into the race. In this episode, I discuss all of this and contrast it with the winning President Trump is doing.

The Road to Tyranny Starts with Gun Control
February 05, 2020 20:00 - 9 minutes - 8.45 MBThe recent International Holocaust Remembrance Day is a reminder that the road to tyranny, oppression and genocide starts with gun control and confiscation. Examples of this abound in the 20th century from communism/socialism, fascism and totalitarianism which led to over 70 million deaths. For those who think this can't happen again, an investigative group has filmed paid organizers working for the Bernie Sanders campaign extolling communism, the Soviet Union, gulags, re-education camps for ...

Special Coverage of Virginia #2A Gun Rights Rally in Richmond
January 22, 2020 19:04 - 22 minutes - 20.9 MBHaving lived, gone to college and worked in Virginia, and as a firm believer in the Second Amendment of the US Constitution, I had made plans a while ago to attend the gun rights rally in Richmond, VA to stand with others in the defense of our civil rights. Then the liberal mainstream media began their sensational fear-mongering about this peaceful rally (which has been held for years). Compounded to this was Virginia Governor Ralph Northam cowardly declaring a State of Emergency which banned...
Five Reasons NOT to Attend the Women's March

Fighting Terrorism with Concealed Carry
January 16, 2020 21:00 - 7 minutes - 7.21 MBConcealed-carry laws are a proven strategy that strengthens law-abiding citizens’ ability to carry concealed weapons and dramatically increases the risk of failure of terrorists or political attackers like Antifa. The attackers will have no way to predict who or how many private gun owners are in the crowd and ready to respond with deadly self-defense. In this episode, I make the case for concealed carry to stop terrorists. Watch this episode on Gayle's YouTube Channel: https://youtu.be/nxJM...
When Iran Targeted a DC Restaurant
January 15, 2020 21:00 - 6 minutes - 6.11 MBThe threat from Iran to our homeland is not new. In 2011, Iran plotted to commit a terrorist bombing attack to kill an ambassador at a high-end restaurant in Washington, DC where many politicians and celebrities dine. Fortunately the plot was thwarted, but former Defense Secretary Gen. Mattis considered it an act of war on American soil. Standing outside this restaurant in the Georgetown area of DC, I tell the story of the plot and its implications. More Links/Reference: https://gayletrotter...
Feminists, headscarves and the rights of Iranian women
January 14, 2020 21:00 - 6 minutes - 5.91 MBI don't understand how liberal feminists, who lecture Americans about women's rights and empowering women, go to misogynist Iran and voluntarily wear a headscarf when the women of Iran are trying to take their headscarves off to defend their rights. Western feminists and groups like the National Organization of Women are AWOL when it comes to showing support and defending the rights of women in countries like Iran. Especially if these western feminists are diplomats who are supposed to repres...

January 12, 2020 06:42 - 17 minutes - 16.4 MBThe Democrats have taken over the state legislature and have made big plans to highly restrict the rights of gun owners.
