We will shine a spotlight on the gripping stories of individuals caught in the crossfire of anger-fueled situations that have left lasting scars on their lives and delve into the minds of individuals who staunchly believe that their anger is a justified response to perceived injustices and frustrations. Tonight, compelling stories of anger that have led to death threats, CPS threats, and losing jobs. A bakery owner dealing with demanding, unruly customers, a bus driver of 15 years dealing with students who won’t follow the rules and record her curse-filled rant, a woman trying to cope with uncontrollable anger after having a child.

America is facing a silent AND growing epidemic: the Adderall crisis. The use of this stimulant (and its generics) has exploded from 35.5 million prescriptions in 2019 to 45 million in 2022. But these numbers only scratch the surface. The DEA warns we're on the brink of our next drug crisis. America is facing a silent AND growing epidemic: the Adderall crisis. The use of this stimulant (and its generics), known by street names like A-Train, Addy, Amps, Christmas Trees, Co-Pilots, Lid Poppers, Smarties, Study Buddies, and Study Skittles has exploded from 35.5 million prescriptions in 2019 to 45 million in 2022. But these numbers only scratch the surface. A dangerous black market has emerged, flooding streets with counterfeit pills indistinguishable from the real thing. Users, often unaware, risk their lives with every dose. Even legitimate prescriptions carry significant dangers. The DEA warns we're on the brink of our next drug crisis. With 5-6 million Americans using Adderall without proper diagnosis and one in four teens in some schools abusing prescription stimulants, we're watching a new generation spiral into un-prescribed/unneeded use and addiction.

The US faces alarming challenges with the Chinese Communist Party, including China's purchase of US land near military sites, growing control over agriculture, and harassment of some American citizens. Notably, over 80% of our medications' active ingredients are imported, largely from China, threatening national security. When it comes to the Chinese Communist Party – the United States could be singing an alarming new tune, "Oh say can you CCP... we’re in trouble?" Tonight we’re breaking down China’s disturbing purchase of US land near key military installations, the CCP’s quietly growing dominance over our agriculture and food supply chain and the harassment of some American citizens on US soil. It doesn’t stop there. We’ll also examine how our prescription medications are closely linked to China. Did you know that more than 80% of the active pharmaceutical ingredients used in our medications are imported, with a significant portion coming from China? That dependence poses a serious risk to our health and national security.  

Sexually explicit books available in public school libraries and teachers allowing students to secretly change their pronouns is becoming more and more common around the country. Many parents are now speaking out saying administrators have a woke agenda and are preying on our children. Imagine you’re in your child’s public-school library and find what appears to be sexually explicit pictures in books. Or imagine your child is secretly changing their pronouns at school with the encouragement of their teacher. This is happening around the country more and more, there are complaints, there are lawsuits, there are school board fights. Some parents might find it acceptable, but many are now speaking out saying administrators have a woke agenda and are preying on our children at a time when they are at their most vulnerable, while their brains are still developing. We’ll hear from a mom who won a lawsuit against her daughter’s school district for secretly transitioning her. We will also hear from guests on both sides of the debate of whether or not sexually explicit books should be allowed in school libraries and classrooms.  

With his execution halted, will Robert Roberson finally have a chance at justice as new evidence, legislative allies, and a growing public outcry push for a retrial? Robert Roberson, who was set to be executed on October 17, 2024, for the 2002 death of his 2-year-old daughter Nikki, was granted a last-minute stay by the Texas Supreme Court. This unexpected reprieve followed a subpoena from Texas lawmakers requesting Roberson’s testimony before the House Criminal Justice Committee. Roberson’s conviction heavily relied on the now-disputed "shaken baby syndrome" diagnosis, but new evidence suggests Nikki’s death may have resulted from natural causes, like pneumonia. Both the Texas Board of Pardons and Paroles and the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals previously declined to intervene, and the Supreme Court’s decision has sparked debate over the balance of power between Texas’s legislative and judicial branches.  The case has drawn national attention, bolstered by support from Dr. Phil, who testified before the Texas Legislature on Roberson’s behalf. The debate has also reignited scrutiny of forensic evidence standards and Texas’s 2013 "junk science" law as lawmakers and courts reconsider Roberson’s fate.  Dr. Phil speaks with Terre, a 2003 juror from Roberson’s trial who now believes in his innocence, stating she wasn’t presented with all the evidence. Roberson’s attorney, Gretchen Sween, insists that, despite opposition from the Attorney General’s office, he deserves a new trial. In support, Representatives Joe Moody (D), Lacey Hull (R), and Brian Harrison (R) have joined forces in a bipartisan coalition advocating for clemency and a retrial. Former Los Angeles prosecutor and news anchor Loni Coombs argues that if the Attorney General is confident in Roberson’s guilt, they should welcome a retrial to resolve lingering doubts once and for all.
