From association health plans to modest regulatory relief, the GOP offers small steps while insurance companies keep cashing checks. Meanwhile, Democrats push exactly what Obamacare was designed to deliver all along: Medicare for All. In this episode, Chris breaks down why the ACA was built to fail, how expiring subsidies are being used as leverage, and why calling healthcare a “human right” opens a Pandora’s box that the U.S. system—unlike Europe’s—simply isn’t built to handle.

The company took a staggering $19.5 billion write-down tied to its EV business, one of the largest impairments in auto industry history. That’s not a win. That’s proof that we were lied to — and we paid for it.In this episode, we break down: • Why Ford’s EV retreat isn’t a business failure — it’s a government failure • How subsidies, loan guarantees, and mandates wasted billions in taxpayer money • Why Americans never wanted forced EV adoption in the first place • How CEOs folded to Washington instead of standing up for shareholders • Why “regulatory changes” really mean Americans aren’t being coerced anymore • How the EV fantasy mirrors past government disasters like the Chevy Volt And why state-run capitalism never works — not in autos, not anywhere!

Chris breaks down why he doesn't buy the official stories, how universities and city leaders dodge accountability, and why the refusal to confront ideology, immigration failures, and public safety is pushing societies to the breaking point. At some point, pretending everything is fine isn’t compassion—it’s negligence.

Instead, it became something else entirely — a reminder of how far our political culture has fallen, and how easily anger is weaponized for applause.In this episode, we break down: • Why the President’s statement crossed a line no leader should cross • How tragedy was turned into political red meat • Why true leadership demands restraint — especially in moments of grief • How faith, forgiveness, and humility are being replaced by outrage and cruelty • Why no political disagreement justifies dehumanizing the dead And how this was a profound missed opportunity to bring a fractured country together!

Big surprise—after massive gains, some AI stocks have run far ahead. But here’s the real takeaway: rotation shouldn’t be a headline event. It should be a constant discipline.Chris explains why trimming winners, taking profits, and rebalancing oversized positions isn’t bearish—it’s smart risk management. AI has driven markets and remains a powerful long-term theme, but no one truly knows which companies will dominate years from now. Admitting what you don’t know is what protects capital.Like Mr. Miyagi tending a bonsai tree—cut here, snip there—prudent investors regularly rebalance, redeploy profits, and look for quality companies that are temporarily out of favor. This isn’t market timing. It’s proper portfolio management, asset allocation, and risk control—the kind that’s served investors well for decades.
