Hour 1
Special Guest Jonathan Emord
For the past 37 years, Jonathan W. Emord has litigated against the federal bureaucracy, winning over and over again. Ron Paul calls Jonathan “an expert in constitutional theory and history” and “an expert litigatorwith a long string of legal victories over the federal bureaucracy.” George Noory calls him “a Knight in Shining Armor” and “a warrior out to save our rights.” Congressmen Dan Burton and John Doolittle describe him as “an intellectual warrior for the rights and freedoms of people in America.” Jonathan has a unique, detailed knowledge of the federal bureaucracy, the deep state. He knows how to defeat it. Jonathan graduated from the University of Illinois 
(BA, political science and history, 1982) and DePaul University College of Law (JD, 1985). He served as an attorney in the Federal Communications Commission during the Reagan administration. A leading constitutional law and litigation expert, he is the author of five critically acclaimed books. He has won more cases against the Food and Drug Administration in federal court than any other attorney in American history, earning him the nickname “FDA Dragon Slayer.” He is a columnist for Townhall.com, PJ Media.com, Americangreatness.com, and the U.S.A. Today Magazine. He frequently appears on national radio and television programs. He is married to Sheryl Emord, and they have two children, twins Justice and Angelica. They reside in Clifton, Virginia.
Trump, Allies Eye Transition Process as GOP Hopes to Control House, Senate, and White House President-elect Donald Trump and his allies are beginning preparations for the transition process, with Republicans now securing a majority in the Senate and anticipating control over the House. Top figures like House Majority Leader Steve Scalise are optimistic about finalizing the House majority, with California as a key state for remaining undecided races. This political shift is expected to bring Republican-led reforms, particularly targeting justice system changes and potentially halting investigations into Trump. Early cabinet considerations include possible returns for Mike Pompeo as Defense Secretary and Ben Carson as HUD Secretary, while fresh names like North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum and Sen. Marco Rubio are in the mix for roles in energy and foreign affairs. Key figures, including RFK Jr., are considered for roles in health, focusing on FDA reform and ultra-processed foods. Meanwhile, Democratic leaders and public figures react to Trump’s victory, emphasizing resilience and a readiness to uphold federalism under new leadership.
With RFK Jr. Poised to Assume Key Role in Public Health, Kids Could Finally Have an Ally in Washington With a spot in the Trump administration, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. aimsto revamp U.S. public health policy through his “Make America Healthy Again” (MAHA) initiative, advocating for significant reductions in toxic environmental exposures affecting children. Kennedy highlights pervasive pollutants like glyphosate, pesticides, and high-fructose corn syrup, which he argues contribute to rising chronic disease rates among children. He promises to hold federal agencies accountable, specifically targeting the FDA, CDC, EPA, and others he believes prioritize corporate profits over public welfare. Kennedy has been vocal about investigating CDC vaccine safety data to address autism rates, advocating for enhanced transparency and comprehensive studies to validate vaccine safety claims. His vision aligns with Children’s Health Defense’s mission to protect children from environmental toxins. His supporters see his role as pivotal in reshaping public health to prioritize transparency and children’s safety over industry interests, fostering a paradigm shift in how public health challenges are addressed.
RFK Jr. Wants to Clear Out ‘Entire Departments’ in the FDA: ‘They Have to Go’ Robert F. Kennedy Jr., speaking after Donald Trump’s election, signaled his intent to target entrenched departments within the FDA, stating that some areas, particularly the nutrition division, are failing to protect public health and “have to go.” Kennedy argued that products like Froot Loops contain dozens of ingredients in the U.S. compared to only a few in Canada, showcasing what he considers regulatory failure. While he ruled out dismantling entire agencies without congressional approval, he affirmed his mission to eradicate corruption and restore scientific integrity in health agencies like the FDA and CDC. Kennedy shared that Trump tasked him with three priorities: eliminating corruption in health agencies, reinstating evidence-based science, and addressing chronic disease rates to “Make America Healthy Again.” Additionally, Kennedy hinted at further reformative steps, such as advising Trump on removing fluoride from drinking water, linking it to various health risks. His remarks underscore his commitment to significant restructuring within government health institutions.
Van Jones: Need to Look at Social Media Regulation, They’re Big and Musk Has a Lot of Power During CNN’s election coverage, commentator Van Jones emphasized thegrowing need for regulations on social media platforms due to their size and the concentration of influence by figures like Elon Musk. Jones highlighted Musk’s ownership of X (formerly Twitter) and his ability to make substantial political donations as structural issues that grant him unprecedented influence in American politics and media. While acknowledging Musk’s achievements in areas like Neuralink and Tesla, Jones argued that one individual should not wield such power over social media, where his control spans a significant share of global digital communication. He also pointed out how Supreme Court rulings have allowed large sums of money to flow into the political system, further complicating the issue by creating an environment where money and media control reinforce each other. Jones suggests that countries with healthier regulatory frameworks might impose stricter controls on media monopolies and political donations to prevent such concentrated power, yet, he notes, this conversation has yet to gain momentum in the U.S.
DOJ Moving to Wind Down Trump Criminal Cases Before He Takes Office Following Donald Trump’s re-election, the Justice Department (DOJ) is reportedly considering winding down the federal criminal cases against him in light of the long-standing policy that a sitting president cannot be prosecuted. DOJ officials, faced with the complexities and delays inherent in the legal proceedings for cases like the January 6th election interference and classified documents matters, are re-evaluating their approach. Special counsel Jack Smith had previously pursued these cases aggressively, but with Trump set to return to office, officials see little point in continuing to litigate them, especially as appeals could extend to the Supreme Court. The DOJ’s position is influenced by a 2000 memo that cites impeachment as the primary recourse for addressing presidential misconduct, thus making Trump’s legal consequences unlikely during his term. Trump’s legal team aims to dismiss pending charges and erase convictions in state-level cases as well. Commentators argue that Trump’s election victory serves as a shield against prosecution, raising questions about accountability within the American legal and political systems. This development has sparked mixed reactions, with Trump supporters viewing it as a mandate and critics expressing dismay over the implications for justice.
FDA Poses Ban on Sex Drive Hormone and Green Tea Amino Acid The FDA’s Pharmacy Compounding Advisory Committee (PCAC) has voted to ban the compounding of several peptides, includingkisspeptin-10, known for its role in reproductive health, and L-theanine, a green tea amino acid linked to stress reduction, cognition, and sleep improvement. These decisions reflect FDA’s demands for clinical-level evidence to justify compounding, a standard often unattainable for natural substances. Critics argue that FDA’s approach unfairly favors pharmaceutical interests, positioning non-patentable compounds as unsafe due to a supposed lack of evidence rather than actual health concerns. By excluding industry representatives from substantial discussions, PCAC maintains a heavily one-sided stance, asserting hypothetical risks such as ingredient purity issues that advocates say can be addressed with quality controls. The committee will reconvene to review additional peptides, but consumer advocates and health freedom proponents call this an effort to limit access to essential, natural health treatments. The FDA’s stance has prompted backlash, with advocacy groups urging Congress to protect consumer access to these widely used compounds as a matter of personal health choice and medical freedom.
Hour 2
Lead Poisoning Costs World’s Children 765 Million IQ Points a Year: Study A recent global study reveals that low-level lead exposure in children worldwide is estimated to reduce collective IQ by around 765 million points annually. Published in the Lancet Planetary Health, the study links lead exposure, primarily from sources such as leaded gasoline, contaminated water, and household dust, to irreversible neurological damage. Researchers report that children in low- and middle-income countries are particularly vulnerable, as these regions often lack strict regulations and lead abatement measures. While developed countries have made strides in reducing exposure, legacy sources of lead remain, continuing to impact child health. The World Health Organization underscores that no level of lead is considered safe for children, with even minimal exposure linked to cognitive impairment, behavioral issues, and delayed development. Experts urge immediate global action, including stricter regulations and public health interventions, to mitigate these effects, protect future generations, and reduce the burden of lead-related neurodevelopmental deficits.
Study Claims Potential Links Between Pesticide Use and Prostate Cancer A recent study published in CANCER, a journal by the American Cancer Society,suggests a connection between certain pesticides and increased rates of prostate cancer in the U.S. Analyzing pesticide use data from 1997-2006 and prostate cancer outcomes from 2011-2020, researchers identified 22 pesticides consistently linked to prostate cancer incidence, with four also associated with mortality from the disease. The herbicides trifluralin, cloransulam-methyl, and diflufenzopyr, along with the insecticide thiamethoxam, showed the strongest ties to both the onset and fatal outcomes of prostate cancer. Lead researcher Dr. Simon John Christoph Soerensen from Stanford University emphasizes the role of environmental factors in regional cancer patterns across the U.S. Although the study is U.S.-based, similar concerns are noted globally; for example, Indian researchers have highlighted how certain widely-used pesticides in India may elevate risks for prostate and other cancers. This growing body of evidence underscores the need for awareness among farmers and policymakers regarding the health risks of pesticide exposure and calls for re-evaluation of pesticide regulations to mitigate cancer risks.
