An Unlikely Alliance: RFK Jr. Speaks

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.

From cats running on treadmills to monkey’s gambling, these are just some of the shocking ways the government is wasting YOUR money. Dr. Phil takes a hard-hitting look at the outrageous and often ludicrous spending of your tax dollars by our government. With national debt exceeding $34 trillion, the government's spending habits seem more reckless than ever, including $2.7 million on cats running on treadmills and $1.8 million on monkeys gambling. These examples are just a few of the questionable expenditures adding up to trillions of dollars, money that comes directly from the pockets of everyday Americans like you—small business owners, government employees, and hardworking citizens. Dr. Phil is joined by Tareka, a small business owner who says she needs money from the government to continue, but can’t get it, and Venisi, a three-time combat veteran who says that despite his service to the country he could not secure a loan for his small business. Also weighing in is Dr. Monica Crowley, Ph.D., former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for Public Affairs, who warns against social programs and small business spending as a threat to the nation's future, and Adam Andrzejewsk, a government watchdog who say the government needs to be held accountable for every penny it spends. Additionally, we hear from Ginger, a military spouse forced to rely on food banks during the government shutdown, and Calvin, a long-time government employee burdened by inefficient mandated purchasing practices. Together with audience guests who bring diverse perspectives, they debate a critical problem impacting us all.

Part 2: Dr. Phil goes to the Arizona and Texas borders looking for solutions. We are just a few days away from the 2024 election and there’s one topic that’s got everyone from Washington to Main Street talking…the border crisis. Both sides agree that work needs to be done to secure our southern border. Dr. Phil first heads to Arizona to find out why there is a super-highway for illegal crossings down there. It’s been nicknamed the "Smuggler's Highway" …right on Interstate 10, which runs through California and Arizona. It’s become the most popular route for smugglers from Mexico. But Sheriff’s deputies in Pinal County, say it isn’t just cartels smuggling migrants…it’s American teenagers. Right in the thick of it all, Sheriff Mark Lamb says the drugs and people being trafficked through this "highway" are ending up in cities all across America. In fiscal year 2023 alone, Arizona had more than 775,000 illegal border crossers. That's a whole lot of people slipping through the cracks. Sheriff Lamb tells Dr. Phil how he attempts to wrangle this situation. Plus Cochise County Sheriff Mark Dannels tells Dr. Phil that in the last 31 months, there have been 500 to 600 pursuits coming through his rural county. Dr. Phil talks to the Vice President of the Border Agent Council, Art Del Cueto, who says the media is not reporting much about Arizona’s border issues. Art says he has solutions if anyone would listen. And we head to Eagle Pass Texas where Dr. Phil spoke to several people working on the frontlines. He asked them THE hard questions that you won’t see anywhere else. And US Southern Border Expert, Jason Jones says human trafficking at the border is the largest US intelligence failure since 9-11.
