Ali Bradley, senior immigration correspondent for NewsNation, joins Joe Pags to reveal a cartel-engineered tunnel discovered 55 feet beneath San Diego — 2,000 feet long with rail systems, lighting, and ventilation. The DOJ seized over a ton of cocaine worth $45 million and tied the operation directly to CJNG.

Plus: Tren de Aragua's quiet expansion across America, the coordinated agitators at Delaney Hall, and why a former Border Patrol chief says he cannot confidently tell Americans the border is secure.

Tucker Carlson went from must-watch America First monologues to defending radical Islam and calling Trump the potential Antichrist. Candace Owens went from conservative icon to what Dinesh D'Souza calls "a pied piper of pure idiocy." So what happened — and why does it matter for the movement right now? Dinesh D'Souza joins Joe Pags to trace Tucker's full "perverse progression" step by step: Netanyahu bad → Israel bad → Jews bad → Islam good → Sharia not so bad → Bin Laden not so bad → Hamas not so bad. Dinesh argues it all traces back to one thing — a primordial hatred — and explains why it's more dangerous than most conservatives realize. Then: the RINO problem inside Trump's own coalition, why Trump has a de jure majority but not a de facto one, the redistricting battle the left is crying about after doing it for decades, and why AI-drawn districts would deliver a massive Republican advantage.

Dr. Ben Carson — neurosurgeon, former Secretary of Housing and Urban Development, and one of the most consequential voices in American conservatism — sits down with Joe Pags for a conversation that pulls no punches. Carson says the Founding Fathers would be horrified by what's happening to this country right now. Not just the politics — the culture, the courts, the classrooms.

Carson also tackles the weaponization of the judicial system, the zero-sum class warfare being sold to working Americans, the truth about processed foods and Big Food's agenda, and why faith and family remain the last line of defense for this republic.

China didn't just support Iran. China armed them, funded them, and supplied real-time battlefield intelligence — and Americans paid with their lives. Gordon Chang, author of Plan Red, joins Joe Pags to lay out the evidence that China is not a bystander in the Middle East — they're a silent combatant.

The Nancy Guthrie investigation didn't just go cold; it was sabotaged from the inside. Former FBI agent Dan Brunner joins Joe Pags to reveal the disastrous decision made by FBI Headquarters that overruled the agents on the ground. By releasing the doorbell video too early, did the Bureau give the kidnapper the signal he needed to destroy evidence and vanish? In this episode: The Fatal Mistake: Why releasing the video "tipped off" the suspect and allowed him to dump distinctive evidence. Agents vs. HQ: Brunner reveals that case agents begged leadership not to release the footage—and were ignored. The "Tip" Flood: How the FBI buried themselves in tens of thousands of useless leads while the real bad guy escaped. Sleeper Cells Activated: Brunner shifts gears to warn about CJNG operations in places like Montana and the specific "retaliation playbook" cartels are using to target Americans on U.S. soil.
