Title: Deciphering the True Jobs Numbers
Topic: Lying Politicians
Discussed by Chris Talgo
with Heartland Institute (www.Heartland.org)
The US economy created 818,000 fewer jobs between April 2023 to
March 2024 then previously reported. How can the Bureau of Labor Statistics be
off by 30% for 12 months? Was someone using “invented math”?
Chris Talgo is the Editorial Director for the Heartland Institute and a research fellow for Heartland's
Socialism Research Center. Today, Chris discusses the US Bureau of Labor and Statistics’ massive error in their latest employment numbers report.

Questions/Issues Discussed:
What types of jobs were created between April 2023 to March 2024? Chris Talgo explains that most “new” jobs were part-time jobs people were forced to get due to inflation and the tanking economy. In addition, seniors who are retired are now working part-time just to make ends meet because their Social Security checks aren’t cutting it anymore.
Is the rapidly rising number of immigrant workers as compared to the lower birth rate of US-born citizens a major concern for the future of our nation? How many “new” jobs went to illegal immigrants?
Why is the Democrat Party ignoring the warning signs? Chris believes it all boils down to Dems wanting “cheap labor” and buying votes.
The pathetic jobs report is not the only troubling economic signal to emerge in recent months. There have been reports of a number of corporate bankruptcies, as well. How many of those bankruptcies are small businesses, which employee millions of people?
Do US consumers have the same disposable income as compared to a few years ago?
Does government spending fuel inflation? Chris discusses recent laws (since 2021) that have increased the national debt by a massive amount, causing the government to print more money, resulting in the increase in inflation.
Over the past three-and-a-half years, have the American people been gaslit by the government and the MSM concerning the true state of the US economy?

Title: Stop the Free Pass for Politicians to Lie

with Robert H Knight (www.RobertHKnight.com)
Why is the Left so hell-bent on attacking President Donald Trump? His actions and words are no different than others before and after him.

Title: The New Truth in Politics
Topic: Lying Politicians
Discussed by John Horvat
with Return to Order www.ReturnToOrder.org
Part 1 of 2
The new way of being a politician cares little for rules, procedures, and standards.
In today’s new political world, there is no truth but rather each has his or her own “truth.”
John Horvat is the author of “Return to Order”. Today John offers a stern warning: Do NOT underestimate Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.
Questions/Issues Discussed:
Does Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s rashness enthuse the left? Does her radicalism fascinate the center? Does her outlandishness enflame the right?
Most voters seek out for entertainment and stimulation that is instant, effortless, and without consequences. What is wrong with this mentality? “Politics is not entertainment,” John says.
Did the media give Obama a pass on his past?
Has reporting become news-entertainment that distorts reality providing “fake news” that plays to the frenzy of the moment? Example: The Catholic boy with the MAGA hat…
Does AOC present a spectacle that is sensational, shallow, and even bizarre, with proposals that are on the edge of absurdity? Must they be just crazy enough to incite Conservative outcry, yet just credible enough to excite Liberal commentary?
Does the media give the left “free unearned publicity”?

with Return to Order www.ReturnToOrder.org
Questions/Issues Discussed:
In today’s surreal political atmosphere, is yesterday’s news too quickly
forgotten?
Are too many accepting the socialistic proposals AOC and others are advocating?
Free college. Free medical care. Jobs for everyone – unless you don’t want to
work, then that’s okay, too.
Is AOC’s proposal the “Wrong Model for the Future”?
Can the future of our children and grandchildren be based on the political
circus playing before our eyes and ears today?

Title: Should Politicians Tell the Truth?
Topic: Lying Politicians
Discussed by Dr. Don Boys
with Common Sense News for Today (www.cstnews.com)
Part 1 of 2
It’s difficult to know when a politician is lying. However, if his or her lips are moving it is a good indication of that possibility. It’s time for all government officials to experience repercussions, and not rewards, for lying. It’s time for accountability, and that means holding their feet to the fire.
Dr. Don Boys is a former member of the Indiana House of Representatives. He wrote columns for USA Today for eight years and has authored seventeen books and hundreds of columns and articles.
Questions/Issues Discussed:
Listen as Dr. Boys explains what Roman bridge builders did after their construction was complete… It’s a little nuts!
How often do children and teens lie? How often do adults lie? Are there studies to back up this information?

Questions/Issues Discussed:
Are average citizens allowed to lie to federal officials?
The courts have ruled that political speech is to be deciphered true or false by
the voter. Should this be reversed?
Should politicians/candidates for office be allowed to sue an opponent or any
person who spreads lies about them?
Should there be a new law across the land: Any politician who lies goes to
prison?
Is it past time politicians take responsibility for their own actions?
Was George Washington’s confession of cutting down the cherry tree an
embellishment by an author?

Title: Politicians. Elections. Lies. And Votes.
Topic: Lying Politicians
Discussed by Kenneth Blackwell
with Family Research Council (www.FRC.org)
Will the next presidential election be won by a lie? Better Question: How
many presidential elections have been won by the side that told the biggest and
most lies? Kenneth Blackwell says, “Political operatives are more interested in
creating a compelling narrative than they are in advancing the truth.” Mr.
Blackwell continues with this thought by explaining how the left is pushing God
out and lies in.
Why are politicians allowed to lie? Yes, this is an actual law! Politicians can
lie to us and the public just accepts the lie as truth – even when they know
it’s a lie! Kenneth Blackwell recently wrote an opinion piece for The American
Civil Rights Union (The ACRU). Kenneth believes that the police-bashing by the
left is conducive to chaos; they are just fueling the flames. “They are not
calling for peaceful demonstrations…they are talking about inflicting physical
pain on individuals!” And why not? Their lies get them more ratings and shares
on social media!
But, wait! It gets better! Listen in as host Terry Lowry reads some of the crazy
statements made by environmentalists in 1970 about what the state of the earth
should be today! The Bible warns us, “When the righteous are in authority, the
people rejoice; but when a wicked man rules, the people groan.” (Proverbs 29:2)

Title: Double Standard Politicians
Topic: Lying Politicians
Discussed by Phil Kerpen
with American Commitment (AmericanCommitment.org)
I absolutely,
categorically refuse to do what I impose on you….or so says our elected
officials in WDC. Phil Kerpen, with America Commitment,
is mad. One of the biggest issues with Obamacare is the fact that our elected
officials in WDC have opted themselves and their staff members out of the
insurance mandate which they have imposed on the rest of the American people.
How did they get around the law? Well, that’s why Phil is here today, to explain
it in laymen’s terms.
First, both the House and the Senate claimed to have less than 50 employees – 45
each, to be exact. FACT: The House has 435 members. FACT: The Senate has 100
members.
As Phil puts it: “They were cheating the American public. They were
committing fraud by filing false documents.” So, only 90 elected officials
or staff members should have signed up under the “small business exemption”.
The actual number was over 13,700.
For those thinking, “Oh, that’s ok. Each elected official has its own
office, with its own employees, and its own payroll.” Nope. Wrong. What’s
even more shocking is that when the signed declarations were actually able to be
viewed (only after litigation and a judge’s order) all the names of the
participants were blacked out! There are efforts in place to get the original
documents with all signatures, but they’ve hit some brick walls. Listen in as
Phil explains how the whole system works and more about the signed declarations.
Spoiler Alert: Rand Paul voted NO – against obtaining a
subpoena for the signatures! Phil reveals what Rand Paul’s office said as to why he voted no! You will not believe it!

Title: Too Many Politicians Can Only Win by Lying!
Topic: Lying Politicians
Discussed by Joe Messina
with Joe Messina (www.TheRealSide.com)
A recent national Rasmussen poll revealed that 43% of Democrats believe that
the President of the United States should have the right to ignore federal court
rulings if they are standing in his way. Furthermore, long ago the courts ruled
that politicians are allowed to lie to voters in order to get votes or approval
for projects. They can lie. No questions asked. No wonder our current situation
is in dire straits!
Joe Messina a fellow radio journalist from the land of fruits and nuts –
California! But, don’t worry – he’s a good guy! He says, “Conservatives want
people to be responsible for their own lives. When do we start holding those we
elect responsible for our country?” We cannot allow our elected officials to
continue to lie and lie and lie, hoping they will start telling the truth! We
need to send them a message, loud and clear. Pride comes before the fall, after
all…
The only way we’ll acquire a change is by voting them out! It’s time we really
get down to the dirty work. It’s time to really inform the voters of the truth
in the issues – the real truth. It’s time to get more people registered to vote,
and then commit to get them to the polls to vote.

Title: VA Secretary is just Another Pinocchio
Topic: Lying Politicians
Discussed by Cody McGregor
with Concerned Veterans for America (www.cv4a.org)
Robert McDonald, the
VA Secretary of the United States, has been caught lying. Again. No big
surprise, considering the record of the current administration.
Cody McGregor is the Texas Director of Concerned Veterans
for America. He also fought to defend our country and others as a sniper on
the Afghanistan/Pakistan border after 9/11.
Cody discusses the recent proclamation by McDonald that 60 VA employees had
recently been fired for manipulating patient wait time data. However, according
to a weekly report the VA provides to the House Veterans Affairs Committee each
week (as of Feb. 5, 2015) – only seven employees have actually been fired for
this offense.
In addition to this big lie, McDonald also claimed he was in the Special Forces.
Listen in as Cody McGregor discusses these scandals and what Concerned Veterans
for America wants for veterans in the future. This is not a partisan issue. We
need elected officials on both sides of the fence to stand up for Vets
everywhere.
You can support the Concerned Veterans for America
and their fight for better healthcare for the people who sacrificed so much to
protect our freedoms [here].

Title: When is Lying Okay?
Topic: Lying Politicians
Discussed by Sam Kazman
with Competitive Enterprise Institute www.cei.org
Jonathan Gruber. Oh, Jonathan
Gruber. How has the world turned without your wonderful presence? How have we
survived this long without your all-knowing amazing gift?
Satire, folks. Pure, sarcasm.
The American people are not stupid. Well, some are – but not the awesome people
who listen to the What’s UP Radio Program! We know What’s UP! And we certainly
know when we are being lied to.
Obama’s good friend Mr. Gruber has been paid upwards of $4
MILLION over the last decade to sell Obamacare to the very people
who were footing the bill. In fact, The Washington Times even reported
that “Gruber got a $300,000 paycheck from the Department of Health and Human
Services to sing the praises of the health care scheme”.
Lying is never ok. Ever. Politicians have been given a free pass to
lie to us – the American people. No strings attached. No
consequences. No fines. They can lie about anything and everything and it’s up
to us to determine what is true and what is false.
There are a lot people in this world with ulterior motives and politicians seem
to be the worst. This is true for not only Obamacare, but illegal immigration,
increase in minimum wage, global warming. And it’s not only the Democrats –
Republicans are just as guilty! The difference is that
the Democrats use OUR money and the Republicans use THEIRS.
Listen in as Sam Kazman, with the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI),
discusses whether or not people (politician or not) should be required to
testify under oath before Congress. CEI is currently pursuing litigation in the
Supreme Court concerning Obamacare and Gruber is actually a huge asset to their
case – not in favor of him, though, obviously! Because Gruber lied!
