A viral Minnesota campaign ad is striking a chord with voters, while an ugly Ohio political feud and a Republican senator’s election-night revenge fantasy expose the growing divisions inside the GOP. Mike speaks with Minnesota Secretary of State candidate Tad Jude about his message to restore trust in government, protect election integrity and bring back the state’s identity. He also takes aim at outgoing North Carolina Senator Thom Tillis for openly celebrating the prospect of a Republican defeat, questioning whether establishment Republicans care more about settling scores than winning. With Election Day approaching, Mike examines the candidates, controversies and political infighting that could shape the midterms.

Are Democrats pushing America toward the same chaos now unfolding in France? Mike examines the violent riots overseas, the Democrats defending them, and the growing threats to prosecute political opponents if the left regains power. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich joins the conversation to explain why he believes Republicans can defy the midterm predictions and why Trump’s policies could usher in a new era of American prosperity. Plus, Mike calls out Republicans rooting against their own party and argues that the fight for control of Congress could determine the country’s direction for years to come.

Do the riots across France signal the end French culture as we know it?  This is personal for Mark and Mike.

Mike takes aim at what he sees as the dangerous consequences of left-wing politics, from California’s proposed billionaire tax to the violent riots sweeping France. He slams mainstream media coverage that downplays the destruction as minor “scuffles” while questioning whether America could face similar unrest if Democrats regain power. Mike also highlights alarming threats from prominent Democrats to pursue political retribution against Trump administration allies, warning that conservatives have every reason to take those promises seriously. With the midterms approaching, he argues that the choice goes far beyond party politics: voters must decide whether America doubles down on the policies he believes are fueling chaos overseas or fights to protect the country’s future.

Mike and Mark kick off the week examining the riots in France, an incredible documentary “You Can See Everything” and enjoying a testy back-and-forth over the White House press secretary hiccup.

Mike breaks down the latest polling analysis suggesting Republicans could outperform expectations and potentially hold both the House and Senate, turning the predicted blue wave into a Democratic nightmare. He argues that gloomy polling could be designed to discourage conservative voters, warning Republicans that staying home could hand Democrats the victory they want.

With Election Day approaching, Mike is taking on Republicans who are threatening to sit out the midterms or vote third party because their preferred candidates lost. He challenges frustrated conservatives to look beyond their disagreements and consider what a Democratic victory could mean for the country, from immigration and border security to government overreach and the weaponization of federal agencies. Mike also examines new revelations about Jack Smith’s investigation into Trump supporters and a tense exchange involving Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed over alleged family ties to the Muslim Brotherhood. As frustration builds within the GOP, Mike asks whether conservatives will put principle into action at the ballot box—or risk handing Democrats the very victory they claim to oppose.

With the midterms just weeks away, Mike asks whether voters will choose common sense over what he sees as the radical extremes of today’s Democratic Party.
