Straight Shooter with Stephen A.

I'm trying to help.

That's all I'm trying to do.

I'm trying to prevent the Democratic Party from drifting into oblivion never to return.

Welcome to the latest edition of the straight shooter with Stephen A.

Coming at you as I love to do every Wednesday evening from 6 p.m. to 9 to 8 p.m. Eastern Standard Time over the airwaves

with Sirius XM, POTUS Radio Channel 124. Number to call up as always is 866 967-6-887. That's 866.

9676-887. That's simplified for you. It's 866. 96 Potus. I'm trying to help. I'm trying to help. Because if you don't know me by now, listen to me and allow me to remind you who I am. I'm a registered independent. I'm not fond of either side. There are some things that I'm conservative about.

There are some things I'm liberal about. I'm primarily fiscal about my money, taxes. I can't stand

states like New York, New Jersey, and California to take all your damn money and taxes. But I'm

relatively liberal. Live and let live.

That is me. And in my ideal world, what I want to do is to make sure that everybody can come

together, compromise, understanding we can't all have everything we want. You got to compromise.

You got to work together. And I want both parties to be competitive. So guess what? When they're going out there and whether it's the black community, it's the Hispanic community, it's the Jewish community, it's the white community. You got to sell us on your ideas. You can't just engage in demagoguery and vilifying the other side and get votes for yourself because you

scared to live in hell out of everybody else when it pertains to your competition.

What are your ideas for this country?

That's me.

That's where I stand.

And why is that relevant?

Because on this particular day, right now, as we stand here, okay, living in the world that we're living in October 1st, 2025, there's a government shutdown.

There's a government shutdown.

And the regular blather that you're always here, you're hearing yet again.
