On the Thursday, June 25, 2026 edition of The Bill Bunkley Show, host Bill Bunkley delivers his signature mix of faith, history, conservative insight, and current events as America counts down to the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. The episode opens with lively discussion of 4th of July plans, including Bill’s personal deliberations about traveling to Washington D.C. for the massive America 250 celebrations on the National Mall, complete with state booths, fireworks viewed from the Iwo Jima Memorial, and practical Metro and hotel strategies to navigate the crowds.

Bill then breaks down major Supreme Court victories for President Trump and the Second Amendment: rulings affirming the President’s authority to end Temporary Protected Status (TPS), clarifying asylum eligibility for those who have not yet entered U.S. soil, and striking down Hawaii’s restrictive concealed carry rules on private property. He follows with an in-depth, engaging interview with historian and author Brady J. Kritzer on his new book The National Road: George Washington and America’s First Highway West, exploring Washington’s visionary push for east-west infrastructure, the engineering challenges of the Appalachian Mountains, political battles over funding, the Whiskey Rebellion, and the cultural impact of this pioneering federal highway project that shaped early American expansion.

In the second hour, Bill examines John Morgan’s launch of the new “Common Ground” political party in Florida (with members called “Grounders”), the surge in independent voters frustrated with gridlock in both major parties, and reflections on pocketbook issues driving politics. He also analyzes recent New York elections showing socialist gains, a caller discussion on grassroots left-wing organizing (highlighting Karlyn Borosenko’s insights), Charlie Crist’s comments on keeping the Tampa Bay Rays in St. Petersburg, and a preview of the USA vs. Turkey soccer match. The show blends patriotic nostalgia, historical depth, sharp political analysis, and listener interaction in classic Bill Bunkley style.
