You’re listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for November 11, 2026. 

We open with the White House sending a message to Democrats before they take control of Congress in January. White House counsel Will Scharf has written to incoming Oversight Committee Chairman Robert Garcia, warning that congressional investigations must serve a legitimate legislative purpose. We walk through the Supreme Court’s Trump v. Mazars decision, the difference between constitutional oversight and political revenge, and why Garcia’s own “gay and petty” explanation for targeting Kristi Noem, Kimberly Guilfoyle, and Pam Bondi raised eyebrows. We also ask why no one is investigating fraud in Minneapolis or Los Angeles.

Then it’s the Top 3 things you need to know. First, the House Oversight Committee’s final Epstein report, which names no new big-name suspects but recommends DOJ scrutiny of Philip Levine, Frederic Fekkai, and Leslie Groff, and finds no evidence implicating Donald Trump. Second, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has been moved to military housing amid reports of Iranian assassination plots. Third, Democrat Scott Colom has won the Mississippi Senate race over Cindy Hyde-Smith, lifting Democrats to 55 Senate seats, with Alaska still undecided. We also react to Joe Biden saying his disastrous 2024 debate performance wasn’t consequential, and to the 24 days that passed before he stepped aside.

On American Mamas, Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson answer a listener question: is there a cost to not hosting gatherings? They talk about the lost art of hosting, what kids learn from watching their parents entertain, and why we need to “normalize the village” again.

Then we turn to John Cornyn’s call to rebuild the Republican Party after what he calls a cataclysmic midterm, his primary loss to Ken Paxton, and what the party should be built around. We close that conversation with the Declaration of Independence.

In Digging Deep, we look at the more than a thousand bills Texas Democrats have pre-filed ahead of next year’s session. They include gun restrictions, a repeal of the abortion ban, election changes like same-day registration and automatic vote by mail, and a handful of religious-observance proposals. We compare what Democrats said on the campaign trail with what they’re actually filing.

Next, we take on New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s Community Opportunity to Purchase Act and ask whether a housing shortage can be solved by discouraging the people who build and maintain housing. Our Bright Spot this Veterans Day week is Scouting America’s new Military Service and Veterans merit badge. We talk about what scouts have to do to earn it and why responsibilities matter as much as rights.

In Say What, we react to Congressman-elect Adam Hamawy’s CNN comments about Iran. We wrap up with a Moment of Whoa: two California deep-sea fishermen pulled a cruise ship pianist from the ocean after nine hours in the water.
