Tue, 06 May 2025
In this episode, I lay out how we can help push President Trump’s agenda through the massive backlash it’s facing from “the Swamp”. Plus, a major revelation about what went down with COVID.

Who is Ed Martin and why is his nomination important?
Adam Schiff, in his capacity as a Democrat senator now, quite unfortunately, is, let me pull up, gentlemen, will you put this up on screen? Here's Adam Schiff, April 1st, has placed a hold on Ed Martin's nomination to be the D.C. U.S. attorney. CBS is referring to this as a controversial choice. President Trump's controversial choice to be the top federal prosecutor in Washington, D.C.
Ed Martin faces an uncertain future as a Senate Democrat plans to put an indefinite hold on his nomination. Martin, a stop-the-steal advocate, okay, that tells you something, and a former defense attorney who represented Capitol riot defendants, that would be January 6th people, is Mr. Trump's nominee to be the U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia.
And Senator Adam Schiff, a first term Democrat from California, plans to hold his nomination amid a growing number of controversial statements and decisions made by Martin. OK, so Adam Schiff is starting the blockade. But he is not alone. As of today, I have learned that it is Tom Tillis, Republican senator of North Carolina.
who is doing the most among Republicans to block the advancement of Ed Martin, to stop him from moving forward. Now Tillis is not doing this in a public way. Tillis is doing this in a snake-like, behind-the-scenes way. Tillis is using procedural efforts behind the scenes to run out the clock on Ed Martin to prevent him from becoming the Senate-confirmed U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia.
That's what's happening right now. Now, I've noticed that there are conservatives who've been in his comments lately on social media telling Tillis, confirm Ed Martin, and I encourage you to join in that effort today. Get in touch with Tom Tillis, especially if you are a North Carolina resident.
Make that phone call to his Senate office and let him know that you are watching and you want Ed Martin to be confirmed to this role. Ed Martin is a patriot.
if you're the kind of person like me who wants accountability for the people who break laws in this country who've committed uh violations of the law under the prior administration and you want to hold them accountable you need a u.s attorney who stands ready to do that when ed martin arrived at the dc u.s attorney's office just as the acting u.s attorney it instantly caused chaos among the deep state entities that were working in that office he began firing prosecutors who were
terrorizing January 6th defendants. Prosecutors who are working in that office who disagree with his focus on going after street crime and holding criminals accountable began quitting the office. That's instantly a massive improvement. Ed Martin has also done things like sent a letter to Chuck Schumer.
You remember Chuck Schumer, of course, the leader of the Democrats in the Senate, demanding that he account for his threats against United States Supreme Court justices while standing on the steps of the United States Supreme Court. Ed Martin has asked for an explanation from Chuck Schumer for that. Not a small deal when a U.S. attorney sends a request, explain yourself.
