Join Bill Bunkley on The Bill Bunkley Show for a faith-informed look at today's headlines and heart moments. Broadcasting live from sunny Tampa, Bill reflects on America's blessings while the nation grapples with a deadly winter monster storm that's claimed lives, left millions in the dark, and canceled thousands of flights. He shares a relatable personal tale of losing his smartphone in Tallahassee – a reminder of how fragile our modern lives can be – and urges listeners to back up their data and count everyday mercies.
Weather & Gratitude: From record Tampa warmth to plunging cold and frost warnings, Bill contrasts Florida's fortune with the nationwide ice apocalypse (over 20+ deaths reported, widespread power outages from Texas to New England), calling for prayer and aid for those suffering.
Border Tensions & Law Enforcement: Deep dive into the fatal Minneapolis shooting of armed protester Alex Preddy during ICE operations, with caller insights on open borders, paid agitators, media bias, and support for federal agents under siege.
Middle East Milestone: Celebration as Israel recovers the remains of the last October 7 hostage (police officer Ran Gvili) from a Gaza cemetery – closing a painful chapter and potentially unlocking the next phase against Hamas. Plus, updates on the USS Abraham Lincoln's positioning, rising ops against Hezbollah, and looming decisive action against Iran.
Cuba on the Brink: President Trump's push for regime change in Cuba by year's end, as the communist government's fragility grows post-Venezuela fallout – a hopeful note for freedom-loving Floridians and Cuban-Americans.
Local Love & Listener Voices: Birthday shoutouts to executive producer Yumiko and Hillsborough County's 192nd anniversary, plus engaging calls on faith, politics, and staying vigilant.

The Briefing: Counting Blessings Amid Chaos – Monster Storm, Lost Phones, Border Battles & Middle East Breakthroughs

Join Bill Bunkley for a special edition of The Bill Bunkley Show—your daily briefing at the intersection of faith and life—broadcasting live from Tampa across Central Florida on Salem Radio and letstalkfaith.com.

In this blockbuster episode (February 20, 2026), Bill dives deep into two massive developing stories dominating the news:
The U.S. Supreme Court's stunning 6-3 ruling striking down President Trump's broad tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). Hear the surprising lineup (Roberts, Sotomayor, Kagan, Jackson, Gorsuch, Barrett in the majority; Kavanaugh's strong dissent joined by Thomas and Alito), President Trump's passionate White House press conference response—calling out "disloyal" justices while vowing powerful alternatives—and his immediate executive order for a new 10% global tariff under Section 122. Bill breaks down the legal details, potential refunds of billions in collected duties, and why this may ultimately strengthen presidential trade authority rather than end it.
Escalating tensions with Iran: President Trump warns of a 10-15 day window (potentially as soon as early March) for a deal on nuclear enrichment and ballistic missiles—or face consequences. With massive U.S. naval assets (including carriers) positioning in the region, Bill analyzes the timeline, possible pre-strike actions, and implications for national security.

Plus, in hour two: Paul Assay from Focus on the Family's Plugged In shares practical wisdom from the Parents' Guide to Technology—tackling screen time, social media dangers, family tech rules, and avoiding hypocrisy in parenting. They also review the uplifting new film I Can Only Imagine 2, perfect for families seeking stories of reconciliation, faith, and overcoming struggles.

Don't miss Bill's closing thoughts on local events like Ybor City's Fiesta Day and why supporting faith-friendly movies on opening weekend matters.

Listen weekdays at 3 PM ET on letstalkfaith.com, FaithTalk Tampa, or your favorite podcast platform. Call in live: 877-943-9673.

Supreme Court Strikes Down Trump Tariffs: Setback or Smarter Path Ahead? Plus Iran Deadline Looms

In today's must-watch episode, we dive into a bombshell international scandal as former Prince Andrew (now Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor), long-associated with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, has been arrested in the UK on suspicion of misconduct in public office following fresh revelations from newly released Epstein files—sparking global headlines and renewed calls for accountability among the powerful. Shifting to Sunshine State developments, the Florida House has overwhelmingly passed a proposed constitutional amendment (HJR 203) that would dramatically expand and eventually phase out non-school property taxes for homesteaded properties, starting with significant exemption increases and aiming for full relief by 2037, delivering major potential tax savings to homeowners amid ongoing debates over local funding impacts. Meanwhile, the Florida Cabinet is set to consider deeding valuable state land—22 acres of non-conservation property—to support a new Tampa Bay Rays stadium deal at Hillsborough College's Dale Mabry campus, advancing talks for a massive $2.3 billion ballpark and mixed-use project that could reshape Tampa's sports landscape. Adding to the local intrigue, a proposed multi-berth cruise port terminal in Manatee County near the sensitive Terra Ceia Aquatic Preserve draws fierce opposition, including from State Senator Jim Boyd, who has voiced strong concerns over environmental harm to pristine coastlines, drawing hundreds to rallies and highlighting tensions between economic development and conservation. Join us as we break down these stories, their implications for Florida residents, and much more in this packed show!

Shocking Royal Arrest, Florida Tax Relief Win, Rays Stadium Land Deal & Manatee Port Battle – Today's Explosive Show!

Broadcasting live from the heart of Florida's Capitol in Tallahassee, today's episode dives deep into the biggest stories shaping the Sunshine State and beyond. Host Bill spotlights former Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn, who is gearing up for a high-profile comeback bid to reclaim the mayor's office in 2027 after raising millions through his PAC and calling it the "worst-kept secret" in Tampa politics. We break down the bold Florida Legislature push to rename Palm Beach International Airport as "President Donald J. Trump International Airport," with bills advancing in the House and Senate amid debates over costs, trademarks, and symbolism. Plus, heated discussions on new legislation that would prohibit public employers and contractors from mandating preferred gender pronouns in the workplace, protecting employees' conscience-based objections while banning forced gender identity trainings. And in national news with Florida ties, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg takes the stand in a groundbreaking Los Angeles courtroom trial, facing allegations that Instagram and other platforms were deliberately designed to addict and harm children, exacerbating mental health crises like depression and suicidal thoughts. Packed with analysis, guest insights from Buckhorn himself, and much more on the day's top headlines—don't miss this can't-miss live edition!
