Israel’s Prime Minister Addresses U.S. Congress

Date: July 25, 2024 Host: Dalton Windsor MP3 | Order

On Wednesday, Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel’s Prime Minister, addressed a joint session of the U.S. Congress.  While the speech emphasized long-standing and close ties between the U.S. and Israel, it also exposed the divisions in American society that have been stirred by the war in Israel.  

For example, some Democratic lawmakers boycotted the address, while protestors outside the Capitol condemned the war and the resulting humanitarian crisis.  Some protestors spray painted marble statues and replaced American flags with Palestinian ones.

Nonetheless, Netanyahu presented a nearly hour long speech, interrupted by frequent applause.  Crosstalk presents this speech, which highlighted the shared interest in Israel’s fight against Hamas terrorists and other armed groups backed by Iran.

The Current Political Landscape

Date: July 24, 2024 Host: Jim Schneider ​Guest: Robert Knight MP3 | Order

Robert Knight is a former Los Angeles Times news editor and columnist for the Washington Times as well as other publications.  Robert has had senior positions in a number of pro-family organizations.  He’s also written several books including, The Coming Communist Wave: What Happens if the Left Captures All Three Branches of Government,  Liberty on the Brink and Crooked: What Really Happened in the 2020 Election and How to Stop the Fraud.

It seems lately that the news cycle has been spinning faster and faster.  There was Biden’s COVID diagnosis which turned out to be mild.  Then after saying he wouldn’t drop out of the presidential race, he did which brought record-breaking contributions to the war chest of VP Kamala Harris.  There was intense grilling of the Secret Service resulting in the resignation of Director Kimberly Cheatle and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave a very stirring and well received message before a joint session of Congress.    

In addition to discussing these matters, Robert also brought his perspective on what we can expect when President Biden speaks tonight, how vulnerable he sees our nation, the U.S. posture toward Israel, illegal aliens and voting laws, his greatest concern as we head closer to the election and much more.

Biden Steps Aside…What’s Next?

Date: July 22, 2024 Host: Jim Schneider ​Guest: Mat Staver MP3 | Order

Mat Staver is founder & chairman of Liberty Counsel.  Mat is a constitutional attorney with three landmark cases before the U.S. Supreme Court.  He’s an author and the host of the radio broadcasts Faith & Freedom and Freedom’s Call.

Yesterday, President Biden succumbed to pressure from within his own party to withdraw from receiving the Democratic nomination for president.  

As early as November of last year, while debating during his own run for president, then candidate Vivek Ramaswamy asked the Democrats to, “End this farce that Joe Biden is going to be your nominee.  We know he’s not even the president of the United States.  He’s a puppet for the managerial class.”

Jim then communicated his thoughts when he described things this way.  He said “…a coup was launched within his own party to pull the rug from underneath him (Biden).”

Given Biden’s cognitive condition and decline, Mat communicated that the president was a puppet of people who have been moving the strings of a man they knew wasn’t competent to run the U.S.  As a result, he made a fool of us both domestically and internationally.  In fact, he believes it looked like elder abuse.

Why hasn’t President Biden addressed the nation on TV about his stepping down from the Democratic nomination?  There hasn’t even been a press conference.  This is  especially troubling given the fact that we’re told his COVID symptoms are minor.

So where exactly is President Joe Biden?  Since we don’t know, who’s running America?  If he’s not competent/capable of running for president, how can he be capable of being the president right now?  In other words, should he immediately resign and step down?  How might our enemies be looking at this?  What does this mean for Vice-President Kamala Harris and the upcoming Democratic National Convention?  Is she part of the cover-up?  Get the answers to these and other related questions on this important edition of Crosstalk.
