Today’s episode discusses President Trump’s latest immigration-related executive orders and the Ninth Circuit Court’s ruling on birthright citizenship.The Morning Edition is a reader-supported publication.
Read this article and you don't know whether to laugh or cry, "CNN hosts claim Trump administration's 'new' definitions of male and female aren't used by 'most scientists'", https://www.foxnews.com/person/h/alexander-hall. Here is a person who bases their world view on the word of "scientists", and of course "scientists" never get anything wrong, right? I mean when they say it's going to rain starting in 20 minutes, it rains in 20 minutes, right? COVID was the flu most dangerous to elderly with medical complications but we should keep our children out of school, that made sense, right? Scientific thinking changes as new "discovers" emerge but the old idea was right, right? The tragedy is, this in the product of decades of public school education driven by a humanistic philosophy. The stupidest thing of all is calling Trump's male and female definitions "new" when they are as old as creation, but the CNN host would not know anything about that I'm sure.
Another stay of an EO, "Federal judge orders Trump admin to comply with previous order to lift foreign aid freeze", https://www.foxnews.com/person/b/bradford-betz, this one by a Biden appointed judge based on his not likely the rational for the freeze, "come up with a new, post-hoc rationalization for the en masse suspension". This is nothing more than a judge dictating how the President should do his job. If there is a good place to stop adhering to these blatant judicial rulings I think this is it and I hope the administration agrees, continue with appeal and "legal resolution" but I for one would not lift the freeze in the interim, not until or unless the judge gives a respectable legal basis for his ruling.
You have got to love this, "Stephen Miller calls out WH press for ignoring Biden's decline, gives 'civics lesson' on presidential power", https://www.foxnews.com/person/k/lindsay-kornick. This is the exact opposite of my defense of Musk which is "legally ignorant common sense" (a consultant who is doing nothing but point out spending issues), and answering the "question" with clear constitutional language. Not only that, his delivery of "your practically begging me for this civics lesson" should get a standing ovation. His answer is worth a hundred of my posts.
Love love love this President. He cares about us and there is action in the words he speaks. His cabinet have all been approved to set out and undergo the Enormous task set ahead of them to make our country more attainable and livable again. God Bless President Trump and VP Vance. You both are so courageous and I for one support you😀😃🇺🇸 Cheryl Sunderland, WA
Mike, I hadn't realized there was a transcript to the Podcast. That is quite sufficient in place of the closed caption if that doesn't come to be. Thank you again!
Saw this article, "Federal judge blocks Trump admin deportation of 8 foreign nationals" on FOX and you can almost buy into it until you also read the subheading, "Attorneys for the asylum seekers slam Trump proclamation as 'unlawful'. This is the very essence of the "she said, he said" accusation. How do you verify these illegals story about "potential harm" if they are returned home? How do you trust their story when they are being represented by lawyers who have blatantly spoken their bias about a lawful EO? The Judge has put the onus on the Justice Dept. to provide more "details", whatever that means. What evidence have the illegals provided to substantiate their claim, or is the judge biased as well? This is a slippery slope that every illegal can claim if allowed. I'll make an assumption here and say that they came across the southern border since that's the major route, and given that say, deport them to Mexico "where they came from". US law is upheld and they are not in danger.
I like the new podcast format. Once a day or a couple times per week would be great. Just enough headlines to start your day without the fluff of cable news. Simple and direct, just like the newsletter.
I saw this article tonight, "‘No sane country would stand for this’: Lawmakers launch effort to withdraw US from UN", https://www.foxnews.com/person/s/diana-stancy, and I can't say that I agree with this proposal. Even the way they justify it is questionable. The UN has no obligation to support President Trump's political agenda or the interests of the US (as a nation) for that matter so their argument is flawed from the start. Also, when you say "interests of the US" you're placing one country over others which is OK for the "country" but not an International Body. I think a more correct phrasing is "what the US stands for" which is in stark contrast to much of the world and the UN in particular. That being said, the US has an important veto role to play in UN policy and that should not be given up without considerable thought which these politicians have clearly not done. The position that I have advocated several times in Edition posts is we should not house the UN on our soil and reduce our support to the level of other countries while ensuring that our funds are not used for programs we do not support. The latter suggestion is new and could be difficult to implement without Inspector General oversight that I have recommended in another post for all government aid and grant funding. If that suggestion was followed all UN funding would be contingent on their agreeing to "open books" with respect to US dollars, no agreement, no dollars.
Every generation has the chance to pursue both 𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐲 and 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐞𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬. In our time, President Donald J. Trump and his well-chosen appointees have stepped into that role. His executive actions should be tested and evaluated on their merits. They are great for America and could shape the future of Israel and the Middle East.
Ambassador Huckabee, thank you for your dedication and service to the State of Arkansas and our nation. When the time is right, do you plan to continue 𝑇ℎ𝑒 𝑀𝑜𝑟𝑛𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝐸𝑑𝑖𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 from Israel?
Such great news! Your newsletter and prayer requests make great daily reading! It helps me to focus on reality rather than the garbage that so often is on cable TV.
I don’t think most of us would have a problem with a child born in the United States automatically becoming a US citizen if one of their parents had made the attempt to become a citizen first. This running to the United States while you’re pregnant wife or girlfriend can have a baby so they have a right to stay in. The country should not be allowed. Furthermore, all people crossing the border need to have legal papers, and there should be some conditions on coming into the country. For instance, once you’re in the United States, you have six months to find a job and legally file the correct papers and pay taxes. You are not to be able to collect social services money for any reason if you’re sick, or if you’re too darn lazy, you need to go back to your own country.
The Supreme Court needs to rule on birthright citizenship. The 14th Amendment was intended to confer rights of citizenship to freed slaves after the Civil War. It was never intended to grant citizenship to the children of foreign nationals.
U.S. Supreme Court needs to step up on so many issues. Sad to say I'm very disappointed with the current Judges leaving our nation in turmoil over so many different issues. We have one who cannot even define what a woman is.
Since the rule of law obviously means nothing to our “Leaders”; why should they demand that we follow it?! The majority of them are HYPOCRITES, and President Trump is totally justified in ushering them out the door forever!! E. M. S.

We requested Action and now we see Action every day. Amen
Will the Podcast have closed captioning? Or does that make it more difficult?

There is a transcript of every podcast that is available: https://govmikehuckabee.substack.com/p/episode-1
We will look into closed captioning.
Mike, thank you so much for this information. I appreciate it!
Your voice changed, Governor!
I like the audio format; it comes across easy for me, and I can listen to it while reading something else,, to save time.

Mark, we have always had a team of writers in addition to Gov. Huckabee. We will continue the newsletter. - Team Huck

That is really good to hear! Thank you!

Really a very complex issue and the vast numbers and the precedent(s) that's set for the future.
Keeping track of all of this will be a mess. Right now hearings are years behind.
And then there is the Boom-A-Rang effect, put them out and ......what! Back again!?

Listen in the car on the way to from work is nice.
Great!
