The media twisted the story, but today, we set the record straight. Jeff Briggs called out the absurdity of ‘furries’ in schools, and for that, he was smeared as a racist. His message was simple: schools should focus on education, not indulging delusions. But the left, desperate to control the narrative, seized on his gorilla suit protest to drown out the real issue—our kids’ classrooms are becoming ideological battlegrounds.
We are also breaking down Rochester’s city council race, exposing the myth of income inequality, and asking: how much more affordable housing do we really need? Plus, what comes after DEI, and why are thousands marching against Trump and Musk?
The truth is under attack, but we are not backing down. Listen now. #talkradio

Deception thrives in the spaces where truth is inconvenient. When corporations quietly rebrand instead of reform, when media manipulates instead of reports, and when institutions silence instead of serve, the result is not progress—it is control. The conversation you are told to have is rarely the one that matters.
This week, we cut through the noise. Presidents’ Day—a celebration of leadership—now drowns under consumerism and historical revisionism. Random Acts of Kindness Day—meant to encourage goodwill—is a fleeting distraction from the engineered division ripping communities apart.
Meanwhile, corporate America is not abandoning DEI; it is disguising it. The so-called death of diversity initiatives is nothing but a calculated pivot to shield from legal scrutiny while maintaining ideological strongholds. And when a school board walks out instead of listening, when parents are demonized for daring to question explicit materials in classrooms, it is clear who is running the show—and it is not the people.
The battle is not left versus right—it is truth versus manipulation. Join me, Peter Vazquez, as we expose the deceit and demand accountability.
For nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest, nor is anything secret that will not be known and come to light. – Luke 8:17  #talkradio

Governor Hochul wants to ban student cellphones while crime rises, illegal crossings hit record highs, and Americans struggle with inflation. Meanwhile, President Trump is taking real action—200 executive orders in 48 hours to restore free speech, secure the border, and unleash American energy.
He is ending government censorship, enforcing immigration laws, revoking radical gender policies, and cutting regulations to restore energy independence. While Hochul pushes distractions, Trump is reversing the damage of weak leadership and putting America first.
New Yorkers deserve real leadership—not political theater. Who is working for We the People—the one banning phones or the one securing borders and restoring freedom? #talkradio

On the Next Steps Show, we expose a chilling threat to free speech and national security. Shen Yun performers and U.S. lawmakers face bomb threats, sparking a State Department condemnation. Is the CCP behind it? What does this mean for U.S. sovereignty? The Hon. Leeshai Lemish joins us to break it all down.
In Monroe County, the DA has launched an investigation into the Irondequoit town supervisor over misconduct allegations. The drama is unfolding faster than a bad reality show, and the consequences could be just as messy. It is time for him to resign!
We also take a look at the legacy of our 16th President Abraham Lincoln—America’s tallest president and the original master of mic-drop speeches. From his Gettysburg Address to his little-known wrestling career, Lincoln’s impact still looms large.
