Taking Back Right Ground

🎙️ NEW EPISODE — Mining the Media
What if the narratives we hear every day didn’t start where we think they did?

In this episode, we sit down with intelligence analyst Lance Fairchok, who traces the historical roots of “white supremacy” from before the Civil War through Reconstruction and into the modern era.

We discuss the role of the Ku Klux Klan during Reconstruction, and how messaging, influence, and media tactics have evolved over time—carrying forward into institutions like the Southern Poverty Law Center.

With nearly 40 years of experience at the highest levels of military and civilian intelligence, Lance breaks down how narratives are shaped, sustained, and used to influence public perception.

This isn’t just history… it’s about understanding the power behind the message.

Let me ask you a simple question:

If you need an ID to board a plane…
why not to vote?

Most Americans support voter ID laws—yet they keep getting blocked.

Why?

We tackle that—and connect it to the mass migration out of blue states—in our latest Mining the Media episode.

🎙 NEW EPISODE — MINING THE MEDIA

“Liar, Liar: Washington’s Dangerous Game With America’s Security”

What happens when politicians campaign one way… and govern another?

In this episode, G.K. and I dig into:

• The Round River FBI operation and questions about a possible Deep State effort to derail investigations tied to the Biden family
• The four counterintelligence probes targeting President Trump
• The escalating fight in Washington over funding the Department of Homeland Security
• Why some Republicans—like John Thune—are facing growing criticism from conservatives

As commentator Steve Deace once said:

“Some politicians wear our jerseys but score touchdowns for the other side.”

Let’s just say… we didn’t pull any punches in this one.

NEW EPISODE — Mining the Media

What happens in Iran doesn’t stay in Iran.

Intel analyst Lance Fairchok joins us to explain how a weakening Iranian regime and the failure of Chinese weapons systems could have major geopolitical consequences for China’s ambitions to become the world’s dominant power.

We also discuss what the guys call President Trump’s five-dimensional geopolitical chessboard and the third-order effects now rippling across the world stage.

Commanding the Heights: Leadership Lessons from Army ATC

You’re going to want to buckle your seat belts and cinch those straps a little tighter.

The guys kick things off with G.K.’s mental hors d’oeuvres from the brane buffet — starting with the real fight in Ukraine: minerals, money, and the geopolitical power plays nobody in corporate media wants to talk about.

They move on to a story you probably didn’t hear outside conservative outlets: the U.S. House voting overwhelmingly for a resolution denouncing the horrors of socialism — including 86 Democrats breaking ranks to join Republicans.

Lastly, Dave launches into a righteous rant cutting through the nonsensical media squabble between Tucker Carlson and various conservative pundits, exposing the real issue at the heart of the divide — and the only real solution to the mess we’re in.

Buckle up, folks. This episode pulls no punches.

After weeks of migraines, Dave is BACK — caffeinated, aggravated, and ready to mine some truth.

Today’s MTM episode covers everything from foster youth reform to NASA’s latest mission… and then Dave lights up the mic with a biblically grounded, blistering comparison between Trump’s government-shutdown rebuke and Jesus calling the Pharisees a “brood of vipers.”

Plus:

• DEI wrecking FAA hiring
• 3,000 qualified controllers rejected
• NASA’s ESCAPADE launch
• Cadillac entering Formula One
• And the perfect outro song to match the madness of politics

This one is pure MTM — organic, fiery, and swinging like a jazz solo.

✨ In a world that often feels dark, I’m reminded that each of us has the ability to live with courage, integrity, and hope. That’s really what it means to be all good people.

In our latest podcast episode, G.K. and I talk about why violence exists (all the way back to Cain and Abel in Genesis 4) and why light still wins over darkness.
