You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for January 6, 2026. 

0:30 Texas Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett is under fire after unleashing profanity-laced attacks on the U.S. Supreme Court following its decision to allow Texas to temporarily use its Republican-drawn congressional map. The Court issued a procedural stay—not a ruling on the merits—so Texas elections can move forward while redistricting lawsuits continue. Crockett’s outburst isn’t legal criticism but political theater, especially ironic for someone claiming sharp legal credentials while running for U.S. Senate. 

9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know.

13:00 New White House data shows President Trump spoke more than 2.57 million transcribed words last year and spent roughly 74% of his public time directly answering press questions, reinforcing claims he’s the most accessible president in U.S. history. Trump is dominating the bandwidth, bypassing legacy media and delivering his message straight to the public—even while sparring with hostile reporters. This constant engagement has blunted fake news narratives and weakened deep-state leaks that plagued his first term. 

16:00 American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson dig into whether social skills and personal responsibility are being sacrificed as elite colleges expand disability accommodations. The conversation points to reports claiming up to 38% of students at top universities identify as disabled, raising concerns about loopholes, academic advantages, and a growing culture of victimhood. The Mamas contrast today’s mindset with the pride and resilience of the Greatest Generation, arguing that hardship once built character, not special treatment. They warn that intelligence without ethics—and incentives to game the system—creates long-term consequences for society.

23:00 Joe Biden is set to receive the largest presidential pension in U.S. history—about $417,000 a year, paid by taxpayers. All while Americans rely on modest Social Security checks and delay retirement because of inflation and rising costs. Longevity in government, not merit or performance, is what drives massive pensions and perks in Washington. 

27:00 Seattle and its new socialist leadership moved to stop prosecuting drug possession and public drug use, diverting offenders into social services instead of jail. The policy mirrors a failed 2021 experiment that coincided with nearly 2,000 overdose deaths in Seattle over two years. Abandoning law and order doesn’t reduce poverty or addiction, but accelerates crime, death, and urban decay—especially hurting working-class communities. Just another example of socialism ignoring recent history and real-world consequences in major U.S. cities.

32:30 We break down the Democrat hypocrisy over Venezuela. Democrats publicly demanded Nicolas Maduro’s removal for years and even backed multimillion-dollar bounties on his arrest. But once President Trump ordered decisive military action to capture Maduro, critics on the left suddenly condemned the operation as unlawful or politically motivated. Senator John Fetterman is a rare Democrat acknowledging the reality of the situation.

36:00 111 officers died in the line of duty in 2025, the lowest number in more than 80 years. According to the National Law Enforcement Officers Memorial Fund, that total represents a 25% drop from 2024 and a dramatic decline from the peak in 2021. Stronger leadership, better policing practices, and a renewed emphasis on officer safety and wellness under the Trump administration drastically reduced the number of deaths. Law and order can directly impact crime, officer safety, and public respect for police.

39:30 And we reflect on January 6 with new revelations that challenge the long-standing narrative, including reports of FBI plainclothes agents in the crowd and withheld video evidence. Many January 6 defendants had their constitutional rights violated when exculpatory footage was not turned over to defense attorneys. We also revisit President Trump’s request to deploy the National Guard and Nancy Pelosi’s refusal to authorize it. Taken together, the official January 6 story is unraveling as more facts emerge.
