Tonight I talk to the amazing Salena Zito - she is an incredible reporter and her new book, BUTLER, is out today. We cover what happened the day that President Trump was shot, just a few short feet away from Salena and her daughter. Salena and President Trump have a terrific friendship, and what she witnessed that day and those that followed, she believes, changed the course of the election.  A little bit about the book: Butler, The Untold Story of the Near Assassination of Donald Trump and the Fight for America's Heartland: "Salena Zito…. She understands you people and me better than we do.” -- President Donald J. TrumpFrom the acclaimed journalist standing only a few feet away from the stage when the gunshots began is this gripping first-hand account of the near assassination of Donald Trump – and the inside story of Trump’s heartland-fueled victory.    That day in Butler, had the wind gusted less, had Trump’s head turned in a slightly different direction, or had the adrenaline-fueled heart of the shooter beat slower, America would have been plunged into chaos, possibly even civil war. As a local reporter with deep ties to the area, Salena Zito had been invited by the president to interview him at the Butler Farm Show Grounds. She was standing only four feet away from the presidential podium when the bullets started to fly. A campaign staffer tackled her to the ground. Throughout it all, Salena never stopped reporting. She spoke by phone to Trump several times in the immediate aftermath and was granted access to community members, rally participants, family members and local law enforcement officials. “I rarely look away from the crowd,” Trump told her in one of several of those conversations. “Had I not done that in that moment, well, we would not be talking today, would we?” Known for her on-the-ground reporting on populism and rural America, Salena zooms out to tell the fascinating story of the battle for America’s heartland and the issues that actually motivate voters. To understand how and why Trump won the 2024 election, you have to understand places like Butler. Big cities like Los Angeles, New York and D.C. don’t decide who wins election cycles, but people in places like Butler, Pennsylvania sure do. President Trump gave the author extraordinary access for this book, including to his top aides, to his running mate JD Vance, to billionaire supporter Elon Musk, and even his security detail.There are moments that define America. The late afternoon hours of July 13, 2024 was one of them. This book is a narrative of that fateful day, the people of the heartland and the untold story of how the president found his way back into the heart of the electorate. https://a.co/d/94Bbk5K @LyndaMick @The Rogue Recap @ZitoSalena https://a.co/d/94Bbk5KSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, we discuss the woman who red-lined the House bill and created the mess we find ourselves in now. We have a bunch of woke nonsense where there should be common-sense solutions. So much opportunity blocked by RINO leadership and feckless followers. And let's remember the lady in question is this Parliamentarian, who, I might add, is not an elected official. We will also delve into some big stories this week regarding COVID and HC scandals, that never even got a second look, and last but not least, the invasion of Muslim radicals in Western democracies.    @LyndaMick @TheRogueRecapSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, we do our best to recount the many movements we have suffered through over the past 5 years. At the start of COVID, the shutdowns and lockdowns were killing small businesses and entrepreneurs. Then we had the George Floyd riots, which led to the BLM riots, which led to the equality riots, now the Free Palestine riots, and the we support Iran riots. How is any normal person trying to raise a family and pay their mortgage supposed to keep up with these paid protestors who have nothing better to do, quite literally nothing. Well, finally some accountability is at our doorstep. And what happens when people look at not just the rioters but their funders, the riots stops. Funny  how that works.    @LyndaMick @TheRogueRecapSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The time for smoothing things over is done. It's time to say what's happening and leave the CYA where it belongs: in the trash. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What happens when everyone is afraid to talk about the truth happening to Western Democracies everywhere? They are being overtaken by illegal immigrant invasions, who want no part of assimilation, only control and destruction. Iran may have had the nuclear weapon, but the followers of that radical thinking are everywhere.   Subscribe now!  @LyndaMick @TheRogueRecap  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Who would have thought that in one episode we could cover lying media hosts, more subway murders and attacks, and a senile POTUS who signed his troubles his away....or did he? Well, it appears we can.    @LyndaMick @TheRogueRecapSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, we touch briefly on the events in the Middle East, and then come back to our troubles here at home with liberal senators and governors, just making up the rules as they go.      @LyndaMick @TheRogueRecapSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We are fighting abroad, we are fighting at home, and we are a hot mess.     @LyndaMick @TheRogueRecapSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's been great chatting with this terrific audience, so I thought I would bring on my first guest. My friend and colleague, Eric Eggers. Wicked smart and very funny. We go over the wokeness of media, the madness of rioters, and the craziness in the world.      @LyndaMick @TheRogueRecapSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The LA Riots have created a civil uprising that mirrors the 2020 riots, and we are seeing it spread all over the nation. Where do our rights end and lawlessness begin? We discuss it in this episode.    @LyndaMick @TheRogueRecapSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
