We kick off with a warm recount of Thanksgiving celebrations with my kids, Charlie and Bean, and the simple joys of sharing a meal together. This week also marked the launch of our podcast, which has already garnered over a hundred downloads, a testament to the support from our listeners despite minimal promotion.
We delve into the political landscape, discussing significant events such as Matt Gaetz withdrawing his name for Attorney General, Pam Bondi stepping in, and Kash Patel being tapped to head the FBI.

On a local level, we explore the impact of immigration policies on South Texas, particularly in Eagle Pass, and the challenges faced by border communities. Our guest, George Antuna, former city manager of Eagle Pass, shares insights into the political shifts in South Texas and the strain on local resources due to increased immigration.

In this episode, we dive into the political landscape on Inauguration Day, as Donald J. Trump is sworn in as the 47th President of the United States. I share my excitement about the end of the previous administration and the potential for a new era under Trump. We also touch on the global impact of the Trump presidency, including talks with Greenland and the Panama Canal.
Shifting focus to state and local issues, I discuss the disappointing start of the 89th Texas legislative session and the challenges faced in electing the Speaker of the Texas House. I emphasize the need for more grassroots efforts to push for TEXIT, the movement for Texas independence, and encourage listeners to get involved.
We then welcome Aaron Valdez, a local businessman and mayoral candidate for Eagle Pass, to the studio. Aaron shares his background, his vision for the city, and his plans to address key issues such as security, infrastructure, and job creation. We discuss the importance of local involvement in politics and the impact of city policies on the community.
Throughout the episode, we highlight the importance of supporting local businesses and initiatives, including the Texas Nationalist Movement and the benefits of becoming a member or making a donation. I also share a personal story about reconnecting with an old friend, Wayne, and the joy of rekindling that friendship.
Finally, I encourage listeners to engage with the podcast through social media, support the show through donations, and stay tuned for upcoming episodes and developments, including potential live shows on Rumble.

Tonight, we tackle a range of topics, from the exhaustion of daily life to the intricacies of political machinations. Despite being tired, I share my thoughts on the relentless pace of life and the challenges of keeping up with current events.
In this episode, I reflect on the recent show with Ashley Colwell, a relationship expert, and discuss upcoming interviews with guests like Jack Kammer, a social worker focusing on men's mental health. We also explore the cultural differences between New York and Texas, particularly the surprising February warmth in Eagle Pass, Texas.
We delve into the controversial topic of USAID's involvement in political matters, including its alleged role in the impeachment of President Trump. This segment highlights the complexities of government funding and media influence, raising questions about transparency and accountability.
Additionally, I share insights into the Texas Nationalist Movement and the concept of Texit, advocating for Texas' independence and self-governance. We discuss the potential economic benefits of an independent Texas, emphasizing the state's robust economy and the promise of increased prosperity for its citizens.
Join me as we navigate these topics and more, offering a candid perspective on the issues that matter. Don't forget to visit our website, www.joerussiello.com, for more information and to support the show.

In this episode, we dive into a wide range of topics, starting with a heartfelt birthday shoutout to my sister, Laura. We then delve into the political landscape, discussing the recent election of Donald J. Trump as President-elect and the impact of his leadership on America's global standing. We explore the media's reaction to his cabinet picks and the positive changes already seen in the stock market and international relations, despite Trump not yet being inaugurated.
We also address domestic issues, emphasizing the need for focus on national interests and border security. I share my support for mass deportations and the importance of pardoning those involved in the January 6th events. The conversation shifts to the political dynamics in the House and Senate, highlighting the necessity of maintaining pressure on elected representatives to fulfill campaign promises.
In a lighter segment, I reflect on a recent conversation with George Antuna, a political expert from Texas, and the fun of having him as our first in-studio guest. We discuss the potential of having him as a regular co-host and the benefits of having a second chair for dynamic discussions.
Looking ahead, I introduce Ruben Ortega Landa, a friend and colleague, who joins us for a conversation about his insights into politics, his rising TikTok fame, and the challenges of navigating social media. We touch on the cultural fascination with criminals and the impact of social media on public perception.
Throughout the episode, we explore the complexities of political discourse, the importance of local engagement, and the potential for future podcasting endeavors. Join us for a candid and engaging discussion on the current state of affairs and the road ahead.
