warning you're about to enter the arena and join the battle to save america with your host john parnell

good evening america welcome to battleground live this is the show where we kick ass and take names and lockhorns with the radical left.

We never quit.

We never surrender from C to Shining C and everybody in between.

Welcome, Patriots on this glorious Tuesday.

You know who we have on deck today?

We have a great American patriot named Steve

Friend, former FBI agent whistleblower. He's a bestselling author of a book called True Blue.

He's on deck a little bit later in the show. I'm super psyched to have him. He's a first

time guest. He's a first timer here on Battleground Live, and it is an honor to have him. He's a first time guest. He's a first timer here on Battleground Live, and it is an honor to

have them, folks in the live chat. I want you to give him a warm welcome when he comes on,

support everything that this guy does because he's a great American patriot. Folks, I've got to tell you,

so much going on today. And also, yeah,

it's a tough time to do a show, many of you all, just a couple of personal anecdotes before we

get into things. I saw, yeah, I am, it's been a crazy, crazy time. Obviously, with Thanksgiving

and Christmas, that makes it crazy. Right now, it looks like a

Christmas bomb went off in my house. And no, I know Commander Melanie is listening. That does not

mean the house is messy. It's not. But we're unpacking all of our Christmas stuff, and it's

everywhere. So it's out, but the decorations are not up.

We also have the elves on the shelves out, which causes a little bit of consternation in this

family because I love the elves. Commander Melanie does not. She sees the elves as like a weird

Christmas big brother type things where she does not want the elves flying back to Santa and telling Santa about the kids.
