Former Border Patrol Agent Gary Brugman dedicated his life to serving America — first in the U.S. National Guard, then protecting the southern border.
But one night on duty changed everything. After a split-second decision, Brugman was charged, convicted, and sent to prison for doing his job.

He served his time — and years later, President Donald Trump pardoned him, restoring his honor but not erasing the pain.

In this powerful conversation with Joe Pags, Gary shares:
🇺🇸 How his faith and patriotism survived a wrongful conviction
⚖️ What really happened the night that changed his life
💥 Why the system punished the very people defending it
🙏 How Trump’s pardon gave him peace — not freedom, but vindication

It’s a story of loyalty, injustice, and redemption every American needs to hear.

🎙️ Listen now — and remember what courage looks like when the system gets it wrong.

What happens when a former TV news anchor joins the other side and starts a campaign to tell the truth? The left freaks out does everything it can to shut him up. They swatted him. They cancelled him on social media. They did everything they could to silence him. It didn’t work.
