Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin has been opposed to supporting Biden’s Build Back Better bill for a while, but he has now caved. Sen. Manchin and other Democrats have even said in the past that the last thing you want to do in a recession is increase taxes. Why did Joe Manchin flip flop on this?

The American economy shrank for the second consecutive quarter which meets the criteria for a technically recession. Mike shares a montage with you showing Democrats claiming that we are living in a good economy & that we’re not in a recession. They are clearly denying reality & trying to change the definition of words to fit their narrative.

Did you see how quickly the shooter at the Dallas airport was taken out by police? There is a viral video showing a 16 year old guy punching & grappling with a NYPD cop. This thug was released the next day thanks to the Democrats’ bail reform laws. Also, Matt Gaetz went viral with his video claiming that women at pro-choice protests are ugly. Mike & Mark shares their views on this moment of owning the libs. What should the GOP look like moving forward to ensure we have political victories?

There is a lot of blame that goes around for crises that America suffers through. The Sackler family gets blamed for the opioid crisis. Mortgage lenders get blamed for the financial crisis of 2007-2008. Why do we not see the same blame being placed upon the pharmaceutical companies for some of the vaccines not doing what Democrats promised they should do? At the end of the day, we all need to have personal responsibility & take ownership of our decisions. Also, Former White House Covid response coordinator Dr. Deborah Birx said she knew that Covid vaccines were not going to protect against infection” in a stunning admission.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis calls out Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker for sending his family to Florida as they got to escape the Covid lockdown & mandates in Illinois. It is wild how many Democrats spend so much time in Florida which is not governed the way they claim is best.

Turning Point USA had their Student Action Summit event in Tampa, Florida this past weekend where thousands of young conservatives come to hear speakers, network, and meet like-minded people. Charlie Kirk is the President & Founder of Turning Point USA. Charlie joins Mike for an interview to discuss what this Student Action Summit event is all about, his new book, & so much more. Charlie’s new book, College Scam, is out this week.

Joe Biden contracting Covid is a pretty big deal as the country struggles with several crises. The White House appears to be downplaying how important all the details are of Biden’s diagnosis. Don’t the American people deserve transparency?

Lee Zeldin is a Congressman from New York & he is a Gubernatorial candidate. Rep. Zeldin was speaking at a campaign event outside when some crazed man tried to walk up to him and stab him. Lee Zeldin joins Mike to discuss what exactly happened & why incidents like these are precisely why he should be elected Governor of New York.

Fox New anchor Bret Baier pointed out that the timing of Joe Biden contracting Covid is peculiar because this comes as Democrats are trying to reinstate Covid mandates again. Look at San Diego as an example. Sen. Rand Paul points out that the Covid mandates coming back would make zero sense. Also, Mike shares how Ivana Trump was reportedly pretty afraid of Covid before she passed away. We can’t let fear run our lives.

President Joe Biden has tested positive for Covid-19 and is experiencing mild symptoms. What is your reaction to this news? What do you make of it?

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said that the more pain we feel at the gas pump, the more benefits we will feel for those who have access to electric vehicles. This exchange is truly mind blowing.

Mike shares a story about a Duane Reade located in Manhattan, NY where a shoplifter steals items from the store every single day. An employee of the store went out and tried to stop the shoplifter and you won’t believe what happened next. Also, NYC Mayor Eric Adams is at least acknowledging that we are currently not doing a great job of locking up criminals who consistently commit crimes.

Mike shares how some listeners were not happy with the Fox News montage where Trump supporters said they’d rather support DeSantis in 2024. However, that montage does not reflect the views of The Mike Gallagher Show. We’re just sharing what is out there with the public. Also, Donald Trump and Mike Pence endorsed opposing candidates for the Arizona GOP primary. How interesting is that?

Mike talks to a caller who shares her journey as to why she left the Democrat party. It is always encouraging to hear someone say that they are a ‘Former Democrat’. We need more of this!

Former President Trump’s ex-wife, Ivana Trump, sadly passed away. Donald Trump wrote heartfelt messages in her honor on Truth Social & through emails. Democrats in the media found a way to attack Trump even for this messaging about his ex-wife’s death. How disgusting is that?
