Ricochet is the best place on the internet to discuss the issues of the day, either through commenting on posts or writing your own for our active and dynamic community in a fully moderated environment. In addition, the Ricochet Audio Network offers over 40 original podcasts with new episodes released every day.
This episode covers several topics including the investigation into the attempted assassination of President Trump, domestic violence in the Olympics, and the National Association of Black Journalists.
Sara discusses the failures of the Secret Service and FBI in protecting the president and highlights the need for accountability. She also addresses the issue of transgender athletes competing in women’s sports and the importance of questioning the prevailing narratives.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu made it clear this week that America’s alliance with Israel doesn’t only matter in the Middle East. Standing up for Israel is also vital for our own national security.
But at the core of Israel’s struggle with Hamas and our common confrontation with Iran is the defense of Western Civilization. That’s what’s at stake if Israel is abandoned or defeated. And the painful reverberations would be felt here too.
The West is under siege. From the relentless surge of migrants from all over the world coming to the U.S. border to China, Russia, and Iran trying to befriend and exploit the countries throughout our hemisphere, the threat closes in more every day.
And if we’re ever going to see major progress in pushing back the illegal invasion of our nation or booting the Chinese, Russians, and Iranians out of the region, it’s going to take a lot of cooperation among the few leaders who actually want to preserve our borders, sovereignty, and freedom.
A fraction of an inch and a split second were the differences between a minor injury and a fatal wound Saturday when President Trump survived an assassin’s bullet at his rally in Pennsylvania.
Sara has attended many Trump rallies and thanks God that both Trump and America were spared from the horrific intentions of the gunman. She says there is no question that Trump is alive thanks to divine intervention.
Nearly two weeks after President Biden’s cognitive decline was exposed for the world to see on the debate stage, his political future remains in doubt.
But as prominent Democrats publicly state that they respect whatever decision Biden makes, don’t believe it for a moment. Like vultures circling an animal carcass, they are waiting for Biden’s political or literal demise to pursue their own insatiable ambitions.
From Kamala Harris to Gretchen Whitmer to Gavin Newsom and more, they’re trying to shove Biden out with a smile on their faces.
If you have listened to any pundit or podcaster on the left over the last couple of days, you may believe that America has just become a monarchy and Trump was crowned king by the Supreme Court. In a dramatic speech, President Biden appeared very worried and breathlessly explained how this decision would pave the way for totalitarianism in America.
Is that really true?
For too long, your child’s educational quality has been determined by which Democrat money laundering scheme (teacher’s union) is planted near your home. Parents were forced to comply with woke, incompetent educators or pay for a private education that could cost tens of thousands of dollars a year. For wealthy families, this wasn’t a problem. The same wasn’t true for middle-class Americans.
This was until the School Choice revolution. Parents saw what their children were learning during the COVID pandemic and said this simply wasn’t good enough. Republican politicians saw this energy and quickly capitalized to take the governor’s mansion in Virginia and school boards across the country. Education matters to parents and they are willing to vote, organize, and raise funds to give their children the best education possible.
A 12-year-old girl is dead. She was raped and murdered by two illegal aliens who were waved into the U.S. under President Biden’s intentional open borders policies.
What if that was your daughter? Can you even imagine the pain of losing them and knowing what horrors she endured during her final hours on earth – and knowing it was easily preventable?
That’s what a mother in Texas is dealing with today, and, sadly, she’s far from alone. Stories of illegal aliens attacking, killing, and sexually assaulting women are making headlines in Georgia, Maryland, New York City, and in countless other communities around America. And none of it had to happen.
Even with a week of prep, sleep, and who knows what else, President Biden is no match for Donald Trump in a debate. But add in two anti-Trump moderators from CNN and the deck may be stacked against Trump.
Will Jake Tapper and Dana Bash spend their time asking Trump about accepting election results and January 6th? Will they interrupt Trump and inject themselves into the conversation to save Biden if he starts drifting off?
It’s been less than three years since Joe Biden’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan. Terrorists have flooded back into the country to train, and the next 9/11 may be much closer than most of us realize.
And to no one’s surprise, women and girls in Afghanistan are facing severe repression from the Taliban. But their cries are met with a cold silence in the Biden White House.
Sara traveled to Afghanistan repeatedly during the war, reported on all different aspects of the war and Afghan culture, and she worked feverishly to rescue friends during those final chaotic days before the U.S. left Kabul in August 2021. In fact, she is still trying to rescue Afghan allies from the clutches of the Taliban.
National security leftists deliberately lied about Hunter Biden’s laptop being Russian disinformation. Now we have clear proof it was a lie and it’s time for those deep state actors to face some consequences.
Less than a month before the very close 2020 presidential election, the New York Post reported that Hunter Biden left a laptop at a Delaware computer repair business and that laptop revealed all sorts of personal and professional malfeasance – from videos of Hunter’s drug use and prostitutes to detailed explanations of family business dealings.
Your kids are being sold a lie. And you need to protect them from the “gender ideology cult” before it’s too late.
From the shows they stream to their school curriculum and from social media to their own doctors, kids going through a difficult and awkward time in life are repeatedly sold the lie that if they don’t feel comfortable in their own bodies – during puberty – that the problem is they’re really a boy instead of a girl or vice versa and transitioning to the opposite sex will somehow solve their problems.
We’re not at war with Communist China, but Communist China is at war with us. It’s been waging a chemical war against our people for years. And it’s winning.
More than 100,000 Americans are dying from drug overdoses every year, and the real number is likely much higher than the one we get from the government. It also doesn’t include lives saved from emergency doses of Narcan.
Today, Sara welcomes Derek Maltz to discuss how this problem keeps getting worse and Joe Biden’s open border makes this chemical warfare easier than ever for China to wage.
Maltz served with the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) for 28 years and also spent 10 years as the Special Agent in Charge of the Justice Department’s Special Operations Division. No one advocates more fiercely or tirelessly for the families ripped apart by these poisons flooding our streets than Derek Maltz.
Joe Biden doesn’t care about you, your family, or your security. And he proved it again this week.
Three years after reversing dozens of Trump policies that had successfully secured our border, and after saying there was nothing he could do on his own to tighten border security, President Biden issued an executive order that he says will rein in the chaos.
He lied.
Sara is back from El Salvador, where she attended the inauguration of a president who dramatically improved the lives of his people within just a few years. Can that be done in the U.S. too?
Nayib Bukele was elected in 2019 and inherited one of the most crime-ridden nations on earth. The country was overrun by ruthless gangs who drove the homicide rate into the stratosphere.
The Democrats are in a full-blown “freakout” over President Biden’s constantly dismal polls. Even with President Trump stuck in a courthouse for weeks on end, President Biden still trails in all of the swing states.
But the left has much more to fear than just low poll numbers. As Trump’s rally in the Bronx proved last week, Americans of all races and ethnicities are disgusted with the Biden record. Even though many of them never voted for Trump before, they are now. Democrats are terrified and they should be.
