The Anchormen Show Episode 83 - State of Play w/ Pearson Sharp

The Anchormen ask the heavy questions:  Is RFK Jr. a big enough threat to Big Pharma that they want him dead? Is Jasmine Crocket’s senatorial bid in Texas really just a Republican Op?  Is Syria proof that ISIS effectively won?  Has Minneapolis become ‘Mogadishu West’? Did Putin overplay his hand with Trump at the Alaska Summit, or did the pair actually make a deal that’s playing out with Zelenskyy’s demise?

Terry Schilling, President of the American Principles Project and father of seven with another on the way, joins “The Anchormen” to deliver blunt, practical parenting wisdom. He explains why marrying young can be an advantage, how to navigate today’s economic pressures, and why he believes America’s “dad-less” culture fuels so many of our social crises. Schilling also tackles the nation’s affordability problem and lays out APP’s mission to make the family the most powerful, best-represented special-interest group in Washington, D.C.

California State Senate candidate Bishop Art Hodges explores the intersection of church and politics. Rooted in Jesus’ prayer, “Thy will be done on Earth as in Heaven,” Hodges argues that political engagement and public service are Christian virtues. He believes pastors have avoided political issues for fear of dividing their congregations—but says that must end, because America’s political landscape has shifted from Right vs. Left to Right vs. Wrong. With people of faith often withdrawing from the ‘unsavoriness’ of politics, only 25% of evangelical Christians vote in California. Hodges lays out his plan to mobilize this demographic and rescue the Golden State from darkness and bankruptcy under decades of one-party rule.

Political analyst Herbert Esmahan takes The Anchormen Podcast on a geo-political journey across Latin America as socialist regimes desperately cling to power. Esmahan has seen first hand how President Nayib Bukele completely transformed El Salvador from the murder capital of the world… to a place that can now serve as a model for its Latin American neighbors. Esmahan believes God has given El Salvador a second chance at peace & prosperity to send a message to the rest of the world: no matter how bad your situation is in life, there’s always hope for redemption.

“Students for Life” founder & President, Kristan Hawkins exposes the lies of the feminist movement, that tells women they’re not strong enough to experience the miracle of childbirth and still achieve their career aspirations. She says society convinces young women that in order to succeed they need to kill an innocent life, and abortion is “the responsible thing to do” when facing circumstantial challenges. Hawkins says the Pro-life movement is the movement of empowerment. But where does the Pro-life movement head in post-Roe America? With the proliferation of chemical abortions, Newsom’s “abortion tourism”, and states like Virginia forging extreme abortion protections; Hawkins believes ending abortion isn’t just about making it illegal… it’s about making it unthinkable.

Freedom Angels founders Denise Aguilar and Tara Thorton describe how they (a former gang member and a former liberal) came together under the common mission to protect children in California against state leadership hell-bent on doing irreparable damage to them.  In this episode the Freedom Angels warn the rest of the nation about Governor Gavin Newsom who wants to be President more than anything on the planet and will stop at nothing in that pursuit. Newsom used isolation and fear tactics to force the mRNA vaccine on the public, created a sanctuary state to sterilize and mutilate children, strip parental rights, and put Californians in peril for his own political aspirations. Now, Newsom’s massive gerrymandering scheme aims to steal 5 congressional seats in California with next week’s special election. The Freedom Angels have a plan to fight back against California’s disastrous leadership starting at the local level.
