John Tammy: Red Staters Should Love Trump’s Pro-Growth Revival Of SALT Deduction
Ben Harnwell and John Tamney, the discussion focused on the state and local tax (SALT) deductions and how these affect different states and their tax structures. Tamney, editor of RealClearMarkets, emphasized that SALT deductions are particularly beneficial for blue states, where local taxes tend to be higher, such as in California and New York. Historically, people in these states could deduct local tax payments from their federal tax obligations. Tamney argued, “We want this deduction… to limit any way possible money flowing to Washington.”
Tamney explained that Republicans oppose these deductions because they believe red states, with lower taxes, end up subsidizing blue states. However, he challenged this perspective, noting that states like Texas and Florida, which have lower taxes, should favor limiting federal government power. By allowing SALT deductions, more wealth would remain in the hands of the people, particularly the wealthy, who can invest and create jobs.
Tamney also highlighted that the MAGA movement supports local governance and reducing the federal government’s influence. He explained, “We win not through envy, but through optimism,” reflecting the populist movement’s belief in entrepreneurialism and local control.
Marly Hornik Explains How YOU Can Prevent Fraud In National Election
Ben Harnwell and Marly Hornik, they addressed the ongoing challenges with election integrity, particularly issues surrounding the 2020 election. Hornik, representing United Sovereign Americans, highlighted a new election misconduct reporting tool aimed at simplifying the process for voters to report issues they observe at polling stations. Hornik emphasized that merely posting concerns on social media is ineffective: “No election official or attorney general is required to investigate a Facebook post.”
Their initiative allows citizens to report incidents through a formal process, ensuring that the necessary authorities receive official complaints. Hornik explained, “We’ve done the heavy lifting…all you have to do is go to uniteforfreedom.com, fill in your experience, and sign it.” This tool empowers voters to file complaints directly to their state’s election officials, attorneys general, and the Department of Justice.
Additionally, Hornik emphasized the importance of holding elections to congressional reliability standards, adding, “United Sovereign Americans can use your complaint to file a lawsuit…to prove this happened.” This approach aims to ensure that election officials are held accountable, and any improper certification is challenged through legal action.
Mesaros Celebrates “Huge [New] Precedent For Free Speech Rights Moving Forward In The 2024 Election”
Jolene Masaros discussed a significant legal victory for free speech rights stemming from a federal court case. She and five other Texans were sued under a controversial law for displaying Trump flags near a Biden campaign bus in 2020. After a two-and-a-half-week trial, the jury found them not guilty of causing emotional damage to the bus occupants, including White House officials and Democratic staffers. This ruling is seen as a pivotal moment for free speech, particularly as the 2024 election approaches. Masaros encouraged average Americans to unite in defending their free speech rights and shared her social media handles for those interested in following her activism. She also highlighted that footage of her with Steve Bannon was used as evidence in the trial, further emphasizing their innocence.

“The Biggest Threat Is Janet Yellen.”: Jim Rickards Counter Yellen’s Attack On President Trump
The discussion with Jim Rickards revolves around Janet Yellen’s recent speech at the 2024 U.S. Treasury conference, where she emphasized the importance of the rule of law for the stability of the American economy. The speaker critiques Yellen, arguing that her actions—specifically the confiscation of $300 billion in Russian assets—contradict her claims about upholding the rule of law. This act is portrayed as a major threat to the integrity of the U.S. Treasury securities market and as a catalyst for global shifts towards alternative currencies, particularly among BRICS nations.
The speaker suggests that Yellen’s approach contributes to rising gold prices and undermines trust in U.S. financial institutions. The conversation concludes with a call for the next presidential administration, presumably under Trump, to reinforce the rule of law and perhaps advocate for U.S. Treasury purchases of gold to bolster confidence in the dollar and the broader financial system.
Overall, the themes highlighted include the perceived hypocrisy in Yellen’s statements, the potential geopolitical consequences of U.S. actions regarding foreign assets, and a recommendation for a shift in policy to strengthen the dollar and restore trust in American financial practices.
Todd Bensman: The Biden Administration Loves This Mass Migration
In a recent conversation between Ben Harnwell and Todd Bensman, they discussed Bensman’s reporting on the Darien Gap, mainly focusing on how it has become a significant transit route for migrants and drug traffickers. Bensman highlighted the presence of the Gulf Clan, a powerful paramilitary group in Colombia that controls this area, facilitating both cocaine smuggling and the influx of migrants.
Bensman criticized the Biden administration for failing to provide adequate support to Panama, which has been pleading for assistance to manage the crisis. Despite promises of aid, the U.S. has offered only minimal financial support, prioritizing other international commitments over addressing the migrant flow through this critical passage.
Bensman’s observations underscore a broader critique of U.S. immigration policy, suggesting that current strategies may inadvertently bolster organized crime while compromising national security.
