Here's something that genuinely surprised me. Calcium supplements, the ones millions of people take for bone health, may not be doing much at all because bones are 90% collagen, not calcium. Without the collagen scaffold to attach to, calcium has nowhere to go. That's where today's sponsor comes in. After 30, our bodies produce 1-2% less collagen every single year. That's the protein that keeps our bones dense, our joints cushioned and our skin firm. By 60, most people like me have lost half of their collagen and it's nearly impossible to get it back through diet alone because it lives in the parts of the animal we usually don't eat, the bones, the cartilage and the tendons. Natapath Grass-fed collagen is a clean grass-fed type 1 and 3 collagen that dissolves completely in water or coffee. No taste, no clumping. Thousands of customers report less joint pain, stronger nails, younger looking skin, better sleep and even improved bone density scans.

Hard to believe that we're screaming into this week already. A lot of things going on in the world today, but we're going to take a deep dive on something that I think is very important. The connection between the open border and what Joe Biden was trying to do and now the efforts to thwart, stop, block, prevent fraud in these entitlement programs that are be using by people who call themselves refugees but they're really illegal aliens, right? It's a big issue. We saw it in Minnesota now. We see it in California. It's going to be in other states before we know it. New York, New Jersey, Illinois, probably with all the sanctuary state issues that are there. It hasn't been fully connected the way we're going to connect it for you today. The chairman of the House Oversight Committee, James Comer, he's the guy that figured out the Joe Biden, Hunter Biden grift, right? He documented it better than anyone. He's a guy that's dug into all sorts of the fraud that we're seeing. He's now in the lead in the point. He's working with J.D. Vance, President Trump's new fraud chief as the vice president. He's working with the Justice Department and its new assistant attorney general for fraud prevention to create knowledge of what's going on, to map the bad actors, to prosecute the bad actors, to close the loopholes and the bad practices that have allowed billions and tens of billions of dollars of money to be stolen from the American taxpayer. In every program you can imagine, from assisting autistic children to food programs for the hungry to hospice care, that's the big one in California that's a jaw dropper. And we're going to dive into that today with Chairman Comer. But that's going to be our primary focus today. I want you to get educated because this fraud is in an accident and it's tied into a larger democratic strategy to hijack the apportionment and redistricting representation of federal funds distribution, to create a pathway to people to get into position to vote as foreigners because it becomes citizens, and also to sustain sanctuary cities by allowing people to take more than the money they're entitled to, i.e. the fraud. So Chairman James Comer is going to kick us off on that conversation. You're going to get some big, big ideas and big news out of this today. One of the things I also want you to pay attention to, he recently sent a letter to the U.S. Census Bureau. Now, the Census Bureau admitted after the 2020 COVID affected, impacted census that it made some mathematical errors, it made some miscalculations. What James Comer is going to tell you is they've been doing investigations, here's what they found. All of the errors were in favor of Democrat states and all of the errors were against Republican states. He estimates four to five house seats were stolen from red states because of these mistakes. That's a very powerful, powerful allegation, a very powerful finding. And most importantly, it fits the larger thing about Democrats are trying to do. They're trying to find ways to gain political clout improperly through sanctuary cities and open borders and maybe fraudulent entitlement and welfare programs. And then, of course, maybe through cheating on the census or certainly bad math on the census, if we can call it that. All right, so Chairman James Comer, going to kick us off at the top of the show. Then in the middle block, we're going to go to that big scoop we had about 10 days ago. I think we're going to get more documents later this week. But remember what we told you, China gained access to multiple states, voter registration databases back in 2020. We were kept in the dark about it. Our intelligence communities didn't tell us. There's some evidence that they might not have fully briefed the president or the Congress. Gordon Chang, one of the best experts in the country when it comes to China, is going to weigh in on the significance of that, what it means for all of us and what we can do to batten down the hatches, tighten up the ship and make sure that the 2026 election has fewer intrusions than the foreign intrusions we saw in 2020. We're also asked Gordon about Ukraine, if we get a chance, that big scoop we had on Ukraine. Then in the third block of the show, a woman who's taken yet another song to the top of the charts. Natasha Owens, a great country Christian music artist. She's a rock star in my notebook, but she's fearless. She didn't back down for her values. And when traditional Hollywood and traditional music world didn't want to rally around her music, she went around it. She went through Real America's Voice, my television network where I put my show on and I love all the great people there, Rob Sigg and the others. And she made songs that are rising up the charts bypassing the traditional media blockade for people who are conservative or Christian. We see it all the time. You just saw a basketball player fired by his team because he said his Christian values didn't agree with the LBGTQ month of celebration that the NBA is doing. It's in sports, it's in music, it's in movies in Hollywood, biases against conservatives. Natasha Owens has found a path to crush those biases, to be successful despite the blockades, the cancer culture. And we're going to talk to her about what were her secrets, what were her lessons learned. That'll be a fun one. Now tomorrow, we get a good chance to talk to the head of the Artemis Space Oversight in Congress. The chairman of the House subcommittee, the Overseas Space Exploration, is going to join us, I think, tomorrow, like Herodopoulos. And he's going to tell us why this mission around the moon, which is going to happen tomorrow, lift off. I'm really excited about why it's important, what are the benchmarks, what's different from the Apollo missions of 50 years ago. It's been a half century since the human got near the moon. In this case, we're going to swing around it and then come back, but eventually we're going to drop payloads on the moon and then we're going to start building a moon base for America. This is one of President Trump's top agenda items and it's becoming a reality tomorrow. April 1st, 2026, Artemis II is going to the moon. Now it's going to slingshot around it a couple times, orbit it and then come back just to make sure that all of our systems work. But eventually, it will lead to a lunar landing in the building of a lunar base. That's pretty exciting. We'll have all that tomorrow. Now, before we get to our first commercial break, and then the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, James Comer. A quick shout out to my new favorite online store. I got a mint after Christmas.

Joining me now to kick off the show, the man who has put together the entire playbook of how Democrats abused the open border, abused entitlement, and created a multi-billion dollar scandal here in America from Minnesota to California. And I'm sure it'll stretch to New York and many other places before we're done. He's the chairman of the House Oversight Committee, Chairman James Comer. So good to have you back on the show. Thanks for having me, John. Sir, I've been watching the work and I think you've put this together in a way that nobody else has. That there's a system that brought illegal aliens in, and they were lured to sanctuary cities with the promise of entitlement money. And then when the entitlement money wasn't enough, they looked the other way at fraud, and all of a sudden we have a big fraud scandal. Walk us through what you've just been able to uncover just in the last few weeks alone. Well, in Minnesota, obviously, I think most Americans have kept up with the massive amount of fraud in all the welfare programs. It's not just the, you know, the leering center, daycare centers and things like that. It's Medicaid. It's housing. It's food stamps. Every type of social program in Minnesota, we're seeing massive amounts of fraud, particularly amongst the Somali community in Minnesota. And they got here just the way that you mentioned. They came to a sanctuary state, Minnesota. They got them to become citizens and registered Democrats, and then active participants in the welfare programs. And that's how the business model works for the Democrats and a lot of the illegals in the state of Minnesota. More recently, we've moved our investigation to California, and we're zeroing in on hospice fraud, which of all the programs in the world, I think the one that has universal support is hospice, which of course, we need in our families, deacus, darpish, tons of need. And what we found is massive amounts of fraud, significantly more in California, just with hospice than what we've seen with everything in Minnesota. So we focused on Los Angeles County. And we found through a recent audit and then some interviews that 18% of the entire budget for hospice was built to Los Angeles County last year. One county in the United States, which is a big county, but it's so obvious that the fraud is there, yet Gavin Newsom, like his counterpart in Minnesota, Governor Tim Waltz, refused to do anything because you're going to see the same type of fraud where you had fraud surfers that were primarily focused on illegals and minority contracts and things like that. All important parts of the Democrat base, and that's why they chose to turn a blind eye. That's unbelievable. Two governors who've absconded or certainly failed to follow their responsibilities, which is to protect those tax dollars. You gave an incredible number in the last few days about the number of criminal illegal aliens who were roaming the streets in the last year of Joe Biden's presidency. It's more than a half million, if I remember correctly. How does that happen? How do people with criminal records get in, stay here, and keep operating? Because they focus on sanctuary states. The states where their growth in their political agenda is based on getting those illegals to become registered voters, getting those illegals to help with their friends and families in that particular demographic to turn out the vote. You've got massive amounts of illegals in blue states with blue governors who all look in the mirror and see a future president of the United States, and they don't want to do anything about it. That's why they are getting their liberal base all jacked up over ICE. That's why they've shut the federal government down for 50 days because they don't want ICE to come in and apprehend the criminal illegals. They know the borders are already secured. They're hoping that we'll get a Democrat president in three years and they can reopen the border just like Joe Biden had it. But in the meantime, they don't want ICE to go in and apprehend the illegals because that hurts their business model of winning elections. Any doubt in your mind that the open border and the entitlement fraud are connected and that it's part of an electoral strategy for the Democratic party? 100%. A lot of people through the years have justified allowing illegals to come in for workers. I think we would all agree we have a shortage of workers. We have a shortage of blue color workers, people that put shingles on roofs, people that dig ditches, people that work in the DeBioca fields in my district of Kentucky. But at the end of the day, what the Democrats have done in the blue states is they've made it easier and more advantageous for those people to come to the state. We'll get you registered to vote. We'll get you a driver's license. We'll get you on welfare. Just continue to come in and turn out all your friends and family for the Democrat party. Sir, your work through the years has been heavily reliant on whistleblowers who came to you because they trusted you. They knew they could get the job, get the truth out through you and be protected, whether it's the Hunter Biden whistleblowers or now the whistleblowers in Minnesota. And now I understand you have one in California today. Treasury Secretary Besin floated the idea of maybe some sort of reward system for whistleblowers. They can get a percentage of the money that's recovered by the government. How important is that to have a vehicle to encourage incentivize and help whistleblowers who go through a lot often to get us the truth? It's crucial. I've been screaming at the top of my lungs for years to have a program like this. My hat's off to the Treasury Secretary for doing this and to President Trump for allowing the Treasury Secretary to do this. There has to be an incentive for these government employees to come forward because they get retaliated again. Now, if a government employee comes out and blows the whistle on a Republican, they get rewarded. But if they blow the whistle on a Democrat, they get punished. And what we need to do is incentivize state employees and federal employees to come forward and blow the whistle. And if what they blow the whistle on turns up to be true, then they need to be compensated. And I think that this is the beginning of something special. I don't think the average American understands the amount of their tax dollars that is lost to fraud every single day in the United States. Not just in Washington, D.C., but in all 50 states, especially the blue states run by blue governors who are pandering to their base that's addicted to welfare like a crack addict addicted to crack cocaine. Yeah. Any doubt in your mind that just solving this fraud, ending it, recovering it, can help bring the deficit down by a large amount? I think David Walker, the former comptroller, says he thinks it's about a half a trillion dollars a year. This could be a big savings for the taxpayer, right? Yeah. If we're having between two and three trillion dollars a year annual deficits, then a half trillion dollars in savings, that's worth a lot. You know, obviously Congress has got a tight end of belt and I don't see a lot of will for that, unfortunately, John. But I think every American is pushing their members of Congress to do something about fraud. If they're not, then they're in a district that's okay with fraud and they're not really that concerned about tax dollars because they probably don't work and pay a lot of tax dollars into the treasury. Those who work, and I think that's just about everybody that watches your show, John, they work hard and they pay taxes. They expect their tax dollars to be spent wisely. And if nothing else, not to be lost to fraud. And what we're seeing, especially in the blue states with the Democrat governors, is they're losing a massive amount of fraud for the sole purpose of political gain to keep the welfare community happy with the Democrat party and to keep the illegal fraudsters happy with the Democrat party. So you recently sent, just last late last week, it was a letter to the Census Bureau. Now the Census Bureau just has one job, that's to get the count right of the number of Americans we have on our soil. You have found a lot of errors. You found a lot of concerns about the performance. Tell us what you've learned and what you're hoping to gain from this next investigation. Let's take away what President Trump talks about with respect to the census and a lot of reports about what they talk about, not counting illegals. Let's just take that off the table. The basic count was miscounted grossly in the last census to the tune of costing the Republicans anywhere from four to five congressional seats. Now we've got a one vote majority in the House of Representatives. If we had a five vote majority where we didn't have to worry that much about Thomas Massey, then we would have probably been able to pass the whole lot more of President Trump's agenda. But the fact that we lost because the Census Bureau was biased. If you go back to when the census was taken the last time, it was during COVID. No one knocked on anybody's doors because of COVID. So they ended up estimating. They overestimated the Democrat areas, which are the urban rundown communities across America, and they undercounted all the suburban areas, which are the Republican fast growing areas with all the cranes. Florida should have gotten another member of Congress. Texas should have gotten a member of Congress. California, Rhode Island, New York, they should have lost more than what they lost. So this was a census that really messed up and it aired to the side of Democrats and against Republicans. And I hope that that mistake is not made again. And that's why we're trying to stay on this census much earlier to make sure that they're focused on counting and counting correctly. You know, the whole issue of whether you count illegals or not, that's a whole another issue. What we're focusing on, what I'm focusing on, is making sure we get an accurate count because that will be a significant improvement whether or not we count the illegals or not. Just get an accurate count. We didn't have that the last time and it was off by a lot. Gosh, that is just stunning. When you look at it, five or six congressional seats, immense, a big difference. One last thing, J.D. Vance, the Justice Department has a new fraud prosecution at the assistant attorney general level. You've got some new partners in this fight. How's that collaboration going? It's going great. J.D. Vance understands business. He's a finance guy. He can crunch numbers. That's a problem that the Democrats have had. You've heard me say on your show many times, John. Most of the Democrats I know in Washington are financially illiterate. They don't even understand if they're being defrauded to begin with. It's really, frankly, not a concern for the Democrats. J.D. Vance is the right guy and I'm excited. Hey, folks. Don't go anywhere. When we come back, Gordon Chang, one of the preeminent national security experts in the country, particularly when it comes to China, will weigh in on all the issues that we just uncovered about China election meddling right after these messages. Welcome back, America. I'm here in Great Vine, Texas at the CPAC 2026 convention. Yep, the conservative political action convention. The crowd has been amazing. It's been gathered around the Real American Boys Studio all day. Lots of great folks here. Lots of great conversations. In the everyday media, there are two topics that don't get enough coverage, particularly given the current risk to the world. One of those is China. We're very lucky to be joined by one of the country's premier experts on China, Gordon Chang. And then Nigeria. There is a persecution of Christians going on of epic proportions in a country that used to once be incredibly, incredibly friendly to Christians. Today, there is a holy war going on and many, many people are being killed just because of who they believe in. Joining me is Frank Utu, right? And Kyle Apps. And you do an amazing work for the group called Acquipping the Persecute. We're going to turn to that in a second. Thank you very much. Let me get started with China because we've had a lot of news recently with China starting with the summit. It got moved to May. President Trump is going to have an interesting conversation with President Xi. Today, there was evidence that a Chinese national was involved in an attack on a military base in Florida. We know that China was having conversations about hypersonic missiles. Does the president go right out trying to say, hey, you're trying to harm our boys, our women? He should. You know, we know on March 1st that drone that killed six American service members into eight, that drone was 100 percent, well, maybe 99.99 percent. First of all, a Chinese shell, but also the components inside virtually every Iranian drone is Chinese. And we also know those supersonic anti-ship cruise missiles fired at the Abraham link. Those were Chinese, 100 percent. Wow. They're literally part of the war. They're fighting us. Well, they're an enemy combatant, John. And, you know, it was not appropriate for President Trump to go there in the middle of a war. If the war is not done by May 14th, the announced state for the summit, then he's got to push it again. That makes sense. That makes a lot of sense. Amanda? Can you guys hear me? We can. Okay, good. All right, Gordon, I wanted to ask you about the FCC announcement this week about foreign manufactured routers. Obviously, the concern is, I think China is probably the number one concern when it comes to any type of malware or something infecting our grid, infecting our technological system. Is it a smart move? Is it too cautious? What do you think? John, could you? I didn't quite catch that. Yes. So what Amanda said is the FCC this week moved to ban some of the Chinese technology. The routers. Yeah. How important is that and how severe is that threat? How pervasive is that threat? It's really important because when you have the Chinese in your network backbone, it means that they can filter information and it could very well mean that they could manipulate that background as well, which is an even greater threat. So I'm glad that the FCC, Brendan Carr, Chairman, has moved to get China out of our routers. And we also need to get them out of our rural networks. That is a rule, but it's also a rule which is being delayed because it takes some time to do that. But we don't have very much more time left, Amanda. That's a really extraordinary vulnerability we allowed to grow for a long time in our networks. We have evidence now that China makes the precursors that kills people who take China on this country. We have evidence that they were complicit today in an attack on a military base that they provided military gear to our enemy in Iran. Over the last few weeks, we've been developing evidence here at Just The News that the intelligence community has known that China won access large numbers of voter registration databases. That happened in Great Britain. It was a national crisis in 24. Here, the intelligence community kept quiet. How significant is that of an escalation of Chinese behavior, starting to hack our voter databases, put themselves in a position to influence or change an election outcome? Essentially, the Chinese voted in 2020 and they had the only vote in China. But it's not only just being in our networks. We know that China, and this is New York Times reporting, that 2020 was involving sending out text messages that were intended to disrupt the Trump campaign. And they had a very active social media campaign for the main platforms, Twitter, now X, Facebook. And so it's really important to get them out of that because otherwise, we just might as well have secret links with the next president. That's right. Yeah, he'll get elected. Chinese that. Yeah, that's amazing. Right. I'm Adam. Gordon. Yeah, absolutely. Thank you, John. Gordon, this makes me think of the myriad items that China is allowed to do to us and we are not allowed to do to them. And it makes me think of the organized protests and the riots that take place here that are organized. We see that they have Chinese backing. Would would that ever fly in China? Would we be able to do that? And what should we do in response? Sorry, John, could you? Yeah, so Amanda was talking about all the things that China's allowed to do on our soil to destabilize us. The collaboration with the Singham network and fomenting violence and protests on our street. We don't do any of that against them right now. What should be the consequence for Chinese intervention on that? Well, there's a number of things that we can do because we know they need access to our markets. We have all sorts of things that they absolutely determine on. And although we overhide cars in the train tracks, President Trump has not used many of our cards against China. Xi Jinping has used all of his cards, one that he hasn't used as pharmaceuticals. So they're just picked from the menu. But clearly, you know, with China involved in all of these things, including killing Americans with fentanyl, I mean, the consequences absolutely have to be severe. Otherwise, the Chinese will feel they can just do it again and again and again. Very tragic. We have for too long been an excuse maker for China. I think we're finally have someone who doesn't make excuses anymore. The question is, what's that path to escalation? What do you expect to be the biggest thing President Trump can potentially achieve with Beijing in the summit? I imagine it must be trade. And I expect that what they'll do is they will extend the one year trade truce that was negotiated last October in South Korea. But you know, we have so many issues of disagreement and concern and worse with the Chinese. So it's going to be a very contentious summit because Xi Jinping, I believe, sees a closing window of opportunity. He thinks he's got to move against us fast. And he realizes that President Trump is close to midterms. So they're going to really press the advantage. And one more thing, we see some very belligerent Chinese activity in the South China Sea. Right now against the Philippines this very hour. Yeah, no, it's scary stuff. Man, I want to just slip in one thing real quickly with Gordon. And now I want to turn to Nigeria, which is just as an important issue. When you look at the last four months of achievements in foreign policy by President Trump, Venezuela, Al-Famah, Iran severely disabled, Cuba maybe about to fall, China could very well have an energy crisis and need us to get bailed out. How much leverage does that give the President? Well, that certainly gives the President more leverage. And now, of course, the Chinese, they have that very large strategic petroleum reserve, perhaps 1.2 billion barrels, which, if that's true, has 140 days of import cover. Plus, they can buy a lot of stuff from the Russians. But nonetheless, it's one more knock on an already fragile Chinese economy. So that's why it's important. It may not be big in itself, but it's the proverbial straw on the camel's back. It's funny how much the dynamics change in a very short period of time. Trump has a lot more cards to play than he did a while ago. And I'm sorry, I didn't want to cut in on you there. All good. No, important conversation. I know that you wanted to switch over to you too, the gentleman from Nigeria. You too, I'll start with you. I think that a lot of Americans, they see what's happening in Nigeria and they don't necessarily grasp the horror that is taking place there. How bad has it gotten? Nigeria has become a failed state. It's corrupt from the presidential administration down to local politics. We need to have more eyes, more attention on it. And that's what the U.S. government has done when Trump enacted this country of particular concern, a designation from the United States International Religious Freedom. And now they have to respond to that accusation or that designation and now we'll see what happens. But it's gotten bad. It's probably one of the worst countries to be a Christian in the world. Yeah, it's really scary. Frank, someone here is a group like equipping the person, like, oh, this is a job for you. But for you, this is personal. Your own home community is right in the center of all of this persecution and killing, right? Correct. So my community of Yerota and the entirety of the middle belt of Nigeria is the center of gravity of the killings by the Islamists in Nigeria. Today, 70% of the killings of Christians anywhere in the world because of their fate is committed in Nigeria. 70%. An average of 35 Christians are killed every day in Nigeria because of their fate. And this has been going on for the past 12 years. So the case in Nigeria is a slow motion genocide. Unfortunately, the world is not quite aware of it. Maybe primarily because of the fact that we are from a forgotten corner of the world. And again, because of the fact that the people killing the Christians in Nigeria are not the Jews. Because if they were the Jews, they could have made the news. But the Islamists are responsible for killing Christians in Nigeria. And today, by the latest global terrorism index released two days ago, Nigeria is placed as the fourth most terrorized country in the whole world. The fourth most terrorized country in the whole world. And Nigeria is housing the fifth largest terrorist organizations in the world. Only in Nigeria we have the Boko Haram, which is operating in the northeast. And the Iswap, which is operating in the northeast and the northwest. Then you have the Ansaru, which is operating in the northwest and the middle belt. And then you have the Lakurawa, which is operating in the middle belt and the south-south. And then you have the most dangerous, the most vicious, the most evil of all these terrorist organizations. It is known as the militia. That is a militia that was designated by the bill that was recently passed in the Congress, recently introduced in the Congress by Representative Riley Mo and Representative Chris Smith. We had a man on the show talking about it. Correct. So that was a bill where they designated this particular group, the Fulani Edni Militia, as a global terrorist organization. That Edni Militia is more dangerous than even Hamas and Hezbollah. Unfortunately, the world is not aware because it is happening in Nigeria. Frank, for believers in Nigeria, are they at a place or do they feel like they're at a place where they could rise up if they had proper support from other nations? And if so, what do they need? Can believers rise up if they had proper support in Nigeria to resist this movement? Yeah, I mean, they can. The evidence is Trump, first time when he had Buhari, the former president in the office, he accused, he confronted him, said, what's happening in Nigeria? Here they're killing our Christian. That's got to stop. I was in Nigeria the next day in the governor's office of his state. And he says, all hell's breaking loose because of what your president said yesterday. And Christmas, December 25th, last year, was the best day for Christians in Nigeria ever in the last 20 years. Sorry. Because when Trump sent missiles in, the terrorists started to shy away flee. So we know when Trump speaks, when the US speaks, things happen. Gordon, we've got about a minute left. This has been a vexing problem. We have a problem of killing Christians in Syria. Difficult thing there because we're trying to keep the Middle East calm. And then you've got this incredible onslaught in Nigeria, in a country that used to be Western friendly, wealthy and friendly to Christians. What are the best policy prescriptions that President Trump and his team have right now? Yeah, it's as described, President Trump has to use force because, you know, it's unfortunate, but there is no other way to stop the persecution of Christians. We have tried everything up to the use of force and it's only failed and the terrorists have gotten worse and worse over time. All right, folks, a courageous entertainer, someone who said, I won't bow my knee to cancer culture. To the woke left, I'm going to make my music the way God and I intended. And I'll bypass the traditional media. Natasha Owens, I call her a rock star. She's not, she's a Christian and a country star, but she's a rock star in my book because of the courage she showed in confronting cancer culture. She'll wrap up our show right after these messages. All right, folks, welcome back. I'm here at CPAC. My next guest needs no introduction. Her music has filled halls with extraordinary inspiration, with celebration of America. But most importantly, when I think of Natasha Owens, I think of this thing, stand your ground. So many people in the cultural space yielded the ground to the left for a long time. They were told it's a way to save your career. It's a way to go along and get along. And all we did was let the culture slide. Natasha never did that. And she has proven time it again. She could take her music to number one. We're lucky to be joined by her right now. Natasha, great to have you on the show. Thank you so much for having me. And congratulations on everything. I mean, you're so happy. Time to look around. You got another number one song. It's amazing. What's the biggest lesson? There's so many people in the entertainment industry, they're afraid of their label and they're afraid of their audience. They're afraid of the social media trolls. And they back down. You proven leaning in is a better strategy, isn't it? It is. People are so hungry for truth. Yeah. And they want somebody that's courageous and that has backbone and that can give a voice back to them. And so people respect that when you don't know who you are and you waiver. Yeah, no, you're right. You don't feel authentic to people. Yeah. You do a lot of your writing of your own songs. You do a lot of telling a story to the American people. And I think of the young people in this generation that grew up in schools and their teacher told us we're a racist, misogynist, troubled, bad society. And that's all that was fed to them. And then they get to meet one of your songs and they get to celebrate the people that you celebrate. What's the key? What's the key inspiration when you sit down and say, I'm going to write something right now. I'm doing something. Well, you know, I, there's a topic that always comes up that I think that needs true. That's something that's being censored. We're not allowed to talk about it. So let's give a song to the people to be able to sing about it. Right. And so that's usually the first motivation. But then to see how people are thanking me, not only the stand out, but giving them the words to fight back in this culture war that they never would have had the opportunity to say, they feel like that they're a part of this movement. Yeah, no, you've invited them in. You said to me during the break that you feel like this helps people get their voice back or give them their voice. That seemed to be a big problem. The five years before Donald Trump won, there was so much censorship in this country was almost unrecognizable. Do you feel it's easing a little bit that we're winning a little bit of that free speech, that free expression back on one side? Yes. Because they're a little bit more afraid and more reserved, but they're still playing the games for a song of mine or anyone's to get to the number one spot. It's conservative movement takes so much more effort. Yeah, that's right. Because we're not allowed to advertise. We're not allowed to buy our way to the top. It's just people hitting if they can see the music, they'll censor it. That's the key. If they can get to it and buy it. So it means the world to us for the support. But just know that it's five times harder for us than anybody else. It shouldn't be that way. It shouldn't. And it was not that way for a long time. I mean, the last 20 years, it just has gotten worse and worse. What's been the biggest lesson you've learned? I mean, taking on the music industry, taking on a left that hates your values, your spirituality, what's been the biggest lesson on this journey? My goodness, I guess just not you have to have thick skin, right? Yeah, that's important, right? Death threats. It's a spiritual warfare. This is not between left and right or Democrats and Republicans. This is between good and evil. Yeah. And you have to know that my God is bigger and that he will protect me and just do not be afraid. Do not be afraid. Faith is so important, not only to your songs, but just the way you conduct yourself. When I watch you on stage or I hear one of your songs, there's just a voice of God flowing through you. What do you do to keep you? You're on a road. You're chugging at 100 miles an hour, seven days a week. How do you keep connected with your faith when you're that busy? Well, you know, like I said, there's a spiritual warfare that comes with this. And I have to fight my battle every day on my knees. Yeah. And if prayer is not a part of my foundation, then it just makes me so much weaker. Right? It's God that gives me that strength. Yeah. Every day. That's amazing thing. You have a lot coming down the pike. You've had an incredible start to this year. What's the next big project that you got coming down that's going to get everyone excited? Well, now it is America's 250th anniversary. So we are on the 250 tour and I was asked to write the song for America and for that tour. Wow. So we're about to launch America 250. I love it. We've also got a Charlie Kirk song that we're putting out in September. It's going to be really a good tribute and sentimental to him. It's pretty awesome. It's such an amazing moment for our generation to celebrate this country and to reverse some of the false narratives that have been out there for the last few years. And you're doing that as you've been on the tour for a little now. What's the biggest surprise when you get out in the field, you meet someone, you have a moment or two that says this is what America's all about? My goodness. 98% of this country loves freedom, loves God, and loves everything that we are fighting for. And to see people like-minded in unity and singing maybe a song that I wrote and they've got tears streaming down their face. With all the sacrifice, with all the fighting, it's worth it. That moment. It's worth the sacrifice of what we're doing, what we're trying to do. Stunning. It's amazing. All right, before we let you go, there is a lot of young people. They're coming up on YouTube. They're trying to get their voice. They're trying to break into the industry. They probably are more conservative than they've been allowed to be in their circle of sphere. What's the best advice we have for some young budding artists out there who wants to break through but doesn't want to lose the authenticity of who they are and where they come from? They cannot forget with all the pressure what they're doing, who they are, and why they're here. You just stay true to yourself, right? This is a grassroots movement to where you don't have to go to a record label and get their attention. They will follow you if you can put out good content and make it go viral and they will follow you. And now with Rav Music- Yeah? Isn't that amazing? They're offering opportunities for artists like us to have a chance to get our music out there. So just stay strong, get a YouTube channel, a website, and put out as much content as you can. This extraordinary family that is the Rav family, all that they do to support, they really care about those who want to tell the truth, that want to express faith, that want to give inspiration to a new generation of children. It's really remarkable. All right, I was coming in here, someone heard you around the show, and they asked me to ask you this question. What's on your playlist? Tonight, we're going to do Trump One, Somali Waltz, and The Boss. Wow, The Boss, I like that. All the new songs. Does The Boss like The Boss? The Boss does not like it. So, Bruce Greenstein, we received an email from my team or tonight team where they did not like the song and they let us know with very four-letter words that they didn't like it. Wow. It's classy, huh? That makes me smile. Our response back was, anytime you want us to do a duet, you just let me know. All right, folks, that wraps up our Tuesday edition of John Solomon Reports. The podcast from Justin News, a big thank you to Chairman James Comer, the House Oversight Committee, some pretty amazing stuff on the census and welfare fraud, entitlement fraud, what's going to happen in California. Great briefing there. Gordon Chang, well, we're up to speed on China now. We know their nefarious intentions better than ever. Thanks to his great briefing. And, of course, Natasha Owens, who's both an inspiration and a model to young artists who want to bypass the woke Hollywood, the woke music industry, and get their music the way they intended it to get out to the American people. She did it through RAV and through Truth Social and other places. She's creating a model. She's blazing a path for independent artists and showing you can be successful doing that. Another guy has done that, Dean Cain, Superman, right? He's coming up tomorrow. I think you'll enjoy that conversation as well. Until then, God bless you and have a great night.
