If you missed this weekend’s episode of “Huckabee” on TBN (or just want to see it again because there was much news and entertainment you couldn’t take it all in in one sitting), you can now watch the full episode online. I talked to Texas Rep. Pat Fallon about the stunning evidence of Biden family corruption that he’s seen, plus investigative journalist John Solomon, hilarious comic impressionist Rich Natole, TBN host Sheila Walsh and my amazing and inspiring musical guest, Becky Isaacs Bowman.

And here’s a clip I hope you’ll share far and wide: my monologue on the stunning betrayal of our longtime ally Taiwan by the Biden Administration.

Russia Update
That alleged “coup” against Vladimir Putin provided the news channels with a weekend of non-Trump news to obsess over, but it appears to have come to nothing. Yevgeny Prigozhin, the leader of the Wagner Group mercenaries who were threatening Moscow, struck a deal to return to Ukraine. Putin reportedly agreed to deploy the majority of Wagner troops to Africa instead of Russia or Ukraine. And Prigozhin allegedly received a promise that there would be no retribution against him, which I guess he actually believes. Let me be the first to say it: “Prigozhin did not commit suicide!”
This leaves the Biden State Department in a pickle since they were about to put sanctions on the Wagner Group’s gold business in Africa, but called that off because they didn’t want to be seen as assisting the violent thug Putin by sanctioning the violent thugs who were trying to topple him. That petered out so fast, it’s not clear which violent thugs they’ll be helping. Or maybe the conspiracy theorists are right, and this whole aborted coup was just a false flag scheme by Putin to (pick one) make himself look invincible, or trick the US into not sanctioning Wagner, or (make up your own here; it will probably make just as much sense as any other explanation for this.)
Blocking Biden
This morning, two GOP legislators introduced a bill to block President Biden from declaring a “climate emergency” as cover for instituting a lot of sweeping regulations and spending without Congressional approval.
The bill is aptly titled “The Real Emergencies Act.” Its co-sponsor, Texas Rep. August Pfluger, told the Daily Caller that the bill would “prevent the White House from distracting from real emergencies – like skyrocketing inflation and record-high energy costs – by declaring climate change a national emergency. Our legislation ensures that President Biden does not abuse the power of his office to pursue his anti-American energy agenda against the will of the American people.”
Of course, the problem will be getting it through the Senate and past a Biden veto. In the meantime, expect Democrats to run to CNN and MSNBC to cry that limiting their emergency powers to real emergencies is an “assault on our democracy.”
