Summary

We could talk about Steve Bannon and Oprah all day … or we can discuss the issues that matter. In this episode, we delve into all the good economic, security, and immigration news that Republicans could actually run on and promise to advance further, if only they were willing to punch through the fake news cycle and endless soap opera. Unfortunately, they are out to lunch. Whether it's ending aid for terrorist countries, stopping amnesty programs, or opening up the entire outer continental shelf to drilling, there is a lot of positive change taking place. But if a policy tree falls in a forest of soap operas, who knows? We also discuss the good news on health care everyone is ignoring and that Republicans are doing a lousy job of selling. The executive orders on health care will open up an opportunity to collapse Obamacare from within and foster a true competitive market for at least some portions of health care. We also announce the future of our “meet the candidates” segment we plan to inaugurate here so that you can be informed about the best choices for the midterm elections.

0:33.0	This is your host, Daniel Horowitz, here in icy central Maryland,
0:38.0	where the kids are actually off of school for a good reason.
0:41.0	So once again, you might hear noise in the background as the kids clamor to get in here and destroy all my radio stuff and all my cool equipment.
0:51.0	Not so cool, but for the kids it definitely is.
0:54.0	But anyway, yeah, it is pretty treacherous and icy out here.
0:58.0	So I certainly understand getting off of school for a half an inch of ice rather than a half an inch of snow.
