Friday, May 8, 2026
Many Americans are uneasy with mass deportation while Democrats push identity politics, the Trump economy just shattered expectations with 115,000 new jobs added in April, and Virginia Democrats got smacked down by the courts after a redistricting scheme backfired spectacularly. Mike breaks down the growing debate inside the GOP over immigration, why Trump’s economic message may be stronger than ever heading into the midterms, and how the Virginia Supreme Court handed Republicans a major political victory. Plus, Larry O’Connor joins the show to talk media hypocrisy, Trump loyalty tests, and whether whispers of “amnesty” could spark a civil war inside the conservative movement.
