You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for April 27, 2026. 

We open with the story that dominated the weekend — another assassination attempt on President Trump, this time at the White House Correspondents' Dinner in Washington D.C. A man traveled by train from California, breached security carrying a shotgun, a handgun, and two knives, shot a Secret Service agent in a bulletproof vest, and was taken down before reaching the ballroom. We cover what was in his written statement, why the reasons he gave sound almost indistinguishable from the Democratic Party platform, and why President Trump walked back into that ballroom afterward — because we don't let evil win and we don't let one man take the night from everyone else.

Then our American Mama Teri Netterville joins us to talk about the assassination attempt, the pattern of political violence that has now produced three close calls, and the direct line between inflammatory rhetoric from media figures and unhinged actors who take it literally. We dig into left-wing influencer Hassan Piker — the number one influencer on the American left, who has called for the murder of Rick Scott and whose content is so violent that Democrat candidates are still campaigning with him anyway. We also cover Jimmy Kimmel's comment that Melania Trump has a glow like an expectant widow — made days before an armed man tried to make that prophecy come true — and Melania's powerful response demanding ABC take a stand. We ask the question nobody in big media wants to answer — when does rhetoric become incitement?

We Dig Deep into the 60 Minutes interview between President Trump and anchor Nora O'Donnell — specifically the moment that's going viral for all the right reasons. O'Donnell read from the alleged assassin's written statement calling Trump a pedophile and rapist, Trump pushed back firmly, and O'Donnell responded with what we call one of the most brazen acts of media gaslighting in recent memory — saying, oh, you think he was referring to you? We break down exactly why that response is not journalism, it's abuse — and why the media's pattern of floating smears, getting called out, and then pretending they had no idea what they were implying is a form of institutional dishonesty that the American people deserve better than.

We also dig into the congressional redistricting battle playing out simultaneously in Texas, Florida, Virginia, and California — because what looks like separate legal fights is actually one coordinated war over who controls the House before a single vote is cast this November. The Supreme Court upheld Texas's new Republican-drawn maps today, potentially adding five Republican seats. Florida's Governor DeSantis is advancing new maps that could flip four Democrat seats. Virginia's Democrat-drawn maps designed to create a 10-1 advantage are tied up in court and the state Supreme Court sounded skeptical today. We explain who actually started this fight — it wasn't Texas — and why the most important redistricting Supreme Court case of the decade is coming this summer out of Louisiana.

We also spend some time on the wine. After the shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, 147 of 186 bottles of $796-a-bottle wine went missing. We debate whether this is theft, entitlement, or a reasonable response to a near-death experience — and we do not fully agree.

For our Bright Spot, Senator Mike Lee of Utah has introduced the Ending Discrimination in Government Contracting Act — legislation that would require federal contracts to be awarded based on the competency, cost-effectiveness, and track record of the business rather than the skin color or gender of the owner. We explain why Chief Justice Roberts was right that the only way to stop racial discrimination is to stop discriminating on the basis of race — and why this bill is exactly that principle applied to the way your tax dollars are spent.

And we close with 96-year-old Barbara Collins, who loves gardening but whose knees don't cooperate anymore. Fortunately, her granddaughter's 150-pound Newfoundland sheepdog Chewy lives next door — and when Barbara points to a spot in the garden, Chewy digs. May your pursuit of happiness bring you joy.
