Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and Dr. Waymon Burke take you through this week’s biggest political stories including: — Why did President Donald Trump cave on immigration and what do Democrats really want? — How can Doug Jones keep his “moderate” label while co-sponsoring liberal bills on immigration? — Will Alabama politicians make a […]

I am convinced that the people who are upset that Gov. Kay Ivey is not spending almost $5.3 million dollars on an Amtrak investment in south Alabama have never taken an Amtrak in their lives. Yellowhammer News’s Jeff Poor nailed how absurd this entire idea is when he wrote that the previous Amtrak service to […]

1. No immigration plan vote coming on compromise immigration bill as we careen towards crisis; Trump blows it all up — The more conservative “Goodlatte bill” failed, the “compromise bill” was delayed until today and now postponed until next week which hands Democrats another victory on immigration. — Senator Jeff Sessions claimed separations were never their desired […]

The numbers do not lie: America is clearly starting to turn on the Special Counsel investigation by Robert Mueller. The IG report on the FBI cast more doubt on some of the players involved and the non-stop media coverage has Americans growing weary. U.S. Representative Mike Rogers (R-AL) told WVNN and Yellowhammer News that this […]

1. Make no mistake, President Donald Trump caved — After saying he couldn’t do anything, he then signed an executive order to end the separation of migrant families and said, “We are going to keep the families together,” but Democrats still want more from the president, he continues to hit Democrats. — Democrats aren’t going […]

1. Sen. Ted Cruz offers a bill to end the “child separation” crisis; Sen. Chuck Schumer rejects it to keep a campaign issue — Cruz’s reasonable bill would require illegal families stopped on the border stay together “absent aggravated criminal conduct or threat of harm to the children.” It would also bring in new judges […]

Senator Doug Jones’ views on immigration seem to line up more with California Senator Kamala Harris than they do with Alabama voters. He has endorsed Harris’ long-shot attempt to end “child separation” at the border as a standalone bill. He has also taken to Twitter to publicly blame President Trump for the entire problem: Yes, […]

1. Looks like the Trump plan on the border is paying off — Maria Covernali who helps illegals enter the U.S. is now telling people that coming to America is a bad idea, “What I’m trying to do is like, telling them, telling the people, don’t go because they’re going to take away your kids,” she […]

Americans have been told for decades that we need to have a complete and total separation of religion and government, including ignoring your religious beliefs during policy making when it comes to abortion and gay marriage. But when “children are being ripped away from their parents” at the border, the American media and Democrats have […]

1. The media is lying to us about border policy, they know they are lying to us, and they don’t care — No, we are no separating “asylum” seekers as policy, it’s just not true, they are separating EVERYONE who gets caught entering illegally. — Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen makes this crystal clear:”This misreporting by Members, press & […]

Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and Dr. Waymon Burke take you through this week’s biggest political stories including: — Who comes out looking best from President Donald Trump’s trip to Singapore? — The debate between Gov. Kay Ivey and Mayor Walt Maddox is never happening, so can we stop talking about it? — How […]

All of Governor Kay Ivey’s Republican primary opponents wanted the governor to participate in a debate, but it did not matter. Now, two weeks into the general election, Democrat candidate Walt Maddox has had two separate news cycles where he asked for a debate. It is not happening. Ivey can be as coy about this […]

1. Report that has multiple instances of bias, declares there was no bias — just really terrible job performance –Somehow a report that included texts from FBI agents, attorneys, and even a redacted attorney talking about being part of the “resistance”, was found by the IG to have “no bias” . Still, they will train their agents […]

In Republican primaries, we’re seeing the argument about who loves Trump the most taking center-stage. With Congressman Mark Sanford in South Carolina it mattered, but with Congressman Mo Brooks in North Alabama it did not, and with Congresswoman Martha Roby’s primary in the Wiregrass it is shaping up to be a race between a Republican […]

1. President Trump declares North Korea is no longer a nuclear threat; anger at this is odd — Trump has offered up some, probably premature, words, tweeting that North Korea was “no longer a Nuclear Threat from North Korea”, also saying “everybody can now feel much safer”, but there are no concrete plans yet. — 54 percent […]

We get it: It is STILL Trump's party

The media loves to tell Republicans that President Donald Trump is the leader of their party. Everyone already knows this and 90 percent of Republicans agree with most of what Trump is doing. The argument, apparently, is that everyone hates Trump and Republicans will have to begrudgingly wear the Trump anchor around their neck. It […]

1. As the media criticizes Trump for dealing with Kim Jong Un, Trump tells Sean Hannity his strong rhetoric led to the summit — After spending last year telling us about how Trump’s reckless behavior will get us all killed, now Trump is being too nice. — When asked about this on “Hannity” last night, he […]

Depending on who you watched or listened to this morning, the meeting between President Donald Trump and North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un is either the greatest diplomatic feat of all time or a massive failure that will empower a madman. The reality is much simpler: We have no idea what is going to happen […]

1. The unlikely meeting of President Donald Trump and North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un finally happens — After the meet and great and photos, Trump tells Kim Jong Un, “We will solve it”— an agreement to denuclearize is in its infancy. — As the people who screamed about Trump’s bellicose “fire and fury” comments now […]

Alabama already has “bingo”, horse racing, greyhound racing, and according to The New York Times, we are ready for more gambling any second now. Maybe it will be a lottery — both candidates for governor support a vote on that. Maybe it will be sports gaming, because there will probably be some folks yelling “Roll […]

1. Trump responds to Canadian leader’s denouncement with anger, American media pouts, and American consumer will pay — The G7 summit ends with Trump telling the other nations “ultimate goal was eliminating all trade duties and subsidies”, they don’t like that, they want to be able to place them with no push-back. — John McCain […]

Radio talk show host Dale Jackson and Dr. Waymon Burke take you through this week’s biggest political stories including: — What were the biggest surprises from Tuesday’s special election? — Who is poised to win the run-offs for Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General? — What did State Representative Ed Henry do to end up getting […]

If you are an Alabama Democrat running for governor you have to argue the state needs gambling and/or the lottery, and more ObamaCare (in the form of a massive Medicaid expansion). All two of these things are a part of Walt Maddox’s campaign for governor and they led his former Democrat failed candidates to massive […]

1. State Representative Ed Henry is arrested for Medicare fraud — Henry was indicted and charged with 6 14 counts including planning to defraud Medicare and pay kickbacks to a physician in Montgomery. — He was arrested, charged, released, and he has released this statement saying he did nothing illegal. 2. Tuscaloosa Mayor Walt Maddox is […]
