E14: Team Academy for Veterans w Special Guest Lukas Lovett

 

E14 Introduction

Hello listeners and thank you for tuning into The American Pulse. There are few things more American than service to our country. We would have no nation without our soldiers, past and present and we would have no nation without the fighting spirit that is America. It is as vital to our history and our future as our love of freedom, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Yet, so many of the young people that have gallantly served our great nation are forgotten once they have served their purpose. This seems strange to me. The very people (men and women) who have been trained to be mentally and physically their toughest are then left to drift. And this drift without clear direction or mission leads more often than we know, to depression, suicide, and homelessness.

Whenever an important phase in life is complete (like military service) and a new one has not yet begun, it is often experienced as a dark night of the Soul. A death of identity and purpose. And you need good people to help shine the light as it can often be difficult to find it on your own.

My guest today saw all this and created something with veterans in mind. Let’s go chat with him about these things.Enjoy the interview.

E14 Final Thoughts

E13: TPUSA and Courage

 

E13 Introduction

Of all the virtues that Americans possess, I would have to say that my two favorites are love of freedom and courage. I absolutely love courageous people and I always have. I have learned so much and fortified my own courageous path by those that have shown me the way. Courage begets courage, as the saying goes.

As Americans, whether we regularly voice it or not, are expected by the world, to be wayshowers on the paths of both freedom and courage for those traits are interrelated.

It is where the left and right in our country differ. The left has been fused with a Collectivist mindset. A Marxist expression where asserting your own values and principles is seen as threatening to the hive mind of the now radical left. Everything is seen as an existential threat to the Woke mindset- a disagreement, an assertion of independence and sovereignty, and certainly any act of courage is viewed as selfish and foreign to those that conform to the collectivist narrative that is handed to them and constantly reinforced.

It is a bit ironic that one of the gifts that the far left has given libertarians and conservatives these past few years is the gift of activating our courage and convictions. For example, there was no way we were going to just go along with the insane transgender ideology (pretending that biological men are women) or go along with putting authorities over parents in the care of children. Nope. We will never go along with that. Ever. Many of us libertarians just want to be left alone but we have not been left alone. So now everyone has to deal with an awakened conservative base. It’s a beautiful thing, in my eyes. A true Hero’s Journey for all of us.

Yet, it requires people standing and modeling courage, like my guest today. A young woman who exemplifies living a courageous life. Enjoy the interview.

Rachel Anderson Bio

My guest today is Rachel Anderson. Rachel is an courageous American, a Conservative, and a field rep for Turning Point USA. Here is my interview with Rachel Anderson.

AP13 Final Thoughts

I hope you enjoyed that conversation as much as I did. Our Lincoln Day dinner is this Saturday and I think it is all sold out. If you are wanting to join us at this awesome event, go get one of the last tickets at KCGOP.org. And if you are going, make sure you come find me and say hi.

And go support TPUSA! I can think of no better national cause than Charlie Kirk‘s visionary organization.Thank you listeners and we’ll see you next week on The American Pulse.

 

 

E12: The People’s Mayor with Special Guest Rachel Savage

 

E12 Introduction

Today, we have a great American story. A local hero who has stepped up to run for mayor of Seattle. A job most everyone else is afraid to raise their hands for. One of the things I have noticed about people that are making a difference right now is that they have, without exception, great courage.

I see it with the new grassroots leadership here at the King County GOP and I see it in my guest today.

For It takes courage to stand against the conformist herd. It takes courage to speak up and express your values when others don’t seem to share them all. And it takes courage if you are going to live your life to your Divine potential.

My guest today exemplifies all this and more. A woman who has taken her own path to truth, service, and leading by example. Enjoy the interview.

Rachel Savage Bio

My guest today is Seattle mayoral candidate Rachel Savage. Rachel is in many ways, an everyday courageous American. A mother, a successful entrepreneur, and a lifelong citizen of Seattle and the PNW. Here is my interview with Rachel Savage.

E10: Praying for Bob Ferguson

 

E10 Introduction

Hello listeners and thank you for tuning into The American Pulse. How are you all holding up? It seems we are living in truly historic times and it feels like we are just seeing the tip of the iceberg, so far. Are you sensing the same thing?

We have a great guest today, a woman who offered a great perspective to me off air and I asked her to record something with me so we could share it all with you. Before we get to it, I wanted to share a few memes with you to tee it up.

RFK Jr has cancelled the CDC’s flu shot campaign saying “If you get the flu shot, you will probably avoid the flu, but it makes you 4.4 times more likely to get another illness because the shot damages your immune system.”

From RFK Jr. “Five states-Texas, Utah, Kansas, Mississippi, and Louisiana –suing Pfizer for knowing and concealing the vaccine causing myocarditis, pericarditis, failed pregnancies, and deaths. That is 10 percent of US States. The tide is turning

Fromm the vile Texan who says “The US Treasury can’t track $4.7 trillion in payments. Medicare sent $2.7 trillion overseas to people that weren’t eligible. Pentagon lost track $2.5 trillion dollars. Social Security sends $100 billion a year to people with no identity. Dept of Education spends $50 billion a year to make your kids transgender.” Aho!

And on a smaller scale, I saw DOGE just cancelled a 16-year monthly payment of $11,000 to Michelle Obama for “White House Garden Maintenance.” I didn’t realize Michelle was still such a valuable member of the White House groundcrew. Oh wait, the garden was removed in 2017. Oh man. What a sham DC is.

And speaking of shammy gov’t entities, From C3, “So it turns out that just about everyone in DC is funneling taxpayer dollars to their spouses NGO or non-profit or firm… in which Elon Musk simply replies “yes”.

Let‘s get to our sponsor and our guest, an American with a unique background and real wisdom for all of us in these rapidly shifting times we live in.

Amber Cantu Bio

My guest today is Amber Cantu. Amber is a mother, a Christian, and the 6th generation granddaughter of Chief Seattle. Today, we catch up with American Amber Cantu. Enjoy the interview.
