TRP - Season 4 - Episode 15 - Part 1 Facts are facts – Releasing Prisoners? – It’s in the Numbers – Mid Terms - The Trump Effect

9/27/2022
There is a lot going on that many of us need to know. Some of it is downright frightening and has the potential to do great harm to our country. Your vote matters in November. It doesn't matter what your party registration is, what matters is whether you love America and want to leave it better or you are willing to stand by and watch it be slowly destroyed.

TRP - Season 4 - Episode 14 - Unlawful Behavior – More harm than good - Quiet Quitting - Is the USA sustainable as a world power?

9/20/2022
At what point do we, the people, say "enough is enough"? Between outright lies, distortions, and wild exaggerations from our President we do not know what to believe. Half of the country's electricity needs will be from solar in 2022 -2023. Only a fool would make such a statement. Climate change caused by who? Indeed not we, the people, when up to 50% of all carbon emissions are caused by the lifestyle of the rich and famous. The common man paying part of the college debt for other people's children? What is the logical reason for making us pay for other people's choices and their debt? And on and on. Every policy decision comes directly from the agenda of the radical left and he names conservatives as domestic terrorists. The man that was elected to unite us is a fraud, a liar, and possibly even a traitor that sold access to fund his family's lifestyle. Time will tell, and with luck, history will record it.

TRP - Season 4 - Episode 13 - We Say “Never Forget” - Crazy CA – Mid Term Election –Missed Opportunity – A Tribute to Life

9/15/2022
Short memory? I hope not. California does it again, the midterm elections, a missed opportunity and a tribute to life. Life shouldn't be complicated, however many people have a way of making it that way. Often it is our self-centered habits that keep us from doing unto others... Al I know is we make life a lot harder by judging others and never looking in our mirror for the root cause of our problems.

TRP - Season 4 - Episode 10 - Come on man; Who elected this guy. Twitter; Green Jobs

8/6/2022
Sometimes in life, we shake our heads and wonder, "WTH happened here?" This episode deals with a few of those. From the POTUS to the facts about how "green manufacturers" are addressing the opportunity of producing solutions. It is all a shame and a giant scam as was Covid-19 and the constant stream of lies that we, the ignorant sheep, were buying. The lies continue into expanded areas of life and we remain ignorant. And worse yet, we do it willfully.

TRP Season 4 - Episode 8 - Is all lost; Patriot or not; The Great EV Debate; Moving away from God

7/18/2022
Self-reflection seems to be an excellent place to start when the dark clouds are darkest. Where does the responsibility lie when things appear to be headed in the wrong direction? TRP believes it is We, the People, that share the burden. How? By making a difference one person at a time. We will know how the country feels about the direction in November 2022.

TRP - Season 4 - Episode 6 - Facts - Perspectives - The Evil Among Us

6/30/2022
There are so many areas where the MSM in the USA either distorts or hides the truth from the American people, it is often difficult to decide which area to cover. There is no doubt in the mind of TRP that we, the people, may have made a fatal mistake when we elected Joe Biden to be the president and for democrats to control the agenda of both houses of Congress. When Kamala Harris is the tie-breaker, even the densest among us should realize we made a big mistake. Then again, when one decides with their emotions instead of their brain, this results.

TRP - Season 4 - Episode 5 - Is the End Near - How America will Collapse by 2025 Part 1

6/24/2022
We presented episode 5 in two parts because of its length and the nature of the content. TRP believes in thoughtful reasoning to enhance the nature of the content, which is taken directly from an article written by Professor Alfred McCoy that was published in 2010 on Salon.com.

TRP - Season 4 - Episode 4 - More Covid Lies; Tweedism; The Totalitarian State- Random Thoughts

6/22/2022
WOW! That's a mouthful! As I mentioned in the opening to this episode, sometimes I find facts that so disturb me that I take a while to digest them before I can actually repeat them. As I often say, "It is what it is", and that in and of itself it is disturbing because we often feel powerless to change what we see. We CAN change the diaper though when it becomes full of you know what.

TRP - Season 4 - Episode 3 - Mental Health, The Promise to Lower Drug Prices, PCP’s, Slave Cities, +

6/6/2022
In Episode 3, we will present small bites of several topics including mental health, lower drug prices, PCPs, Slave Cities of the USA, and more. Keeping up with the madness often requires taking a deep breath and exhaling slowly. Sometimes we all need to stop and think before we react. With the recent violence in our country, it appears we have arrived at one of those times.

TRP - Season 4 - Episode 2 - Student Debt; The 5th of May; Some things to think about

5/19/2022
As I continue to read and hear about the policies and plans of President Biden, they seem to make less sense with each new perverted idea. Now we are being told that using tax dollars from every taxpayer to eliminate student debt is a good idea and the right thing to do. TRP disagrees. TRP believes that if you buy it or break it, you own it. A little tutorial on Cinco De Mayo, and a few issues that affect us all.

TRP - Season 4 - Episode 1 - Deception - Lies - Mistrust

5/6/2022
There comes a time when we must say, "enough is enough". In the mind of TRP, that time comes when we cast our ballot for our US Representatives, and US Senators every two years, and when on the ballot, the POTUS. The make-up of the 2021-2022 Congress has proven with every action that WE, THE PEOPLE, are not what they are representing. It is the radical left and anti-American forces that they bow down to. Allowing poor domestic and foreign policy to continue will only make us complicit in the amount of long-term damage they will do. TRP encourages every American that may legally vote to pray and contemplate what their vision for the USA is and vote accordingly.

TRP - Season 3 - Episode 20 - Where do you stand?

4/29/2022
There comes a time in everyone's life when they have to take a stand. Whether it be a difficult life decision, or dealing with a spouse or child. It is time for those of us that love the USA to take a stand to preserve our Republic before the left destroys it. From indoctrinating our children to preying on the ignorant and weak the time is now to make a commitment to "do the right thing", swallow our petty differences and only select those that commit to following the instructions in our Constitution. There is no excuse for treating anyone differently regardless of their life circumstance or status. American means American. Neither wealth nor power matters.

Season 3 - Episode 18 - A Change of Pace - Corruption - Incompetence

4/10/2022
In a rare twist, this episode starts with a forwarded email message I received from a long-time friend. A message that I am convinced as many Americans as possible should hear. Chapters 2 & 3 reverts to addressing the absence of doing the right thing by those elected to do precisely that. I suspect whoever is "in charge" will face many of the same issues from a strictly partisan view and that is a sad commentary on the state of the state.

Season 3 - Episode 17 – The Lies and Control Continue

4/2/2022
At what point do we say, "just tell the truth"? Politicians have subjected the American people to lie after lie. We often forget that these individuals are our elected representatives! These are the people we sent to Washington to represent us, while most of them represent their own political and economic interests, or worse yet, the agenda or interests of someone or something else. In Episode 17, we look at the biggest lie yet. We pledge to continue exposing our listeners to facts, not solely our opinions.
