In this episode of Ford News, Johnathan and Brian start by discussing the Mark Robinson scandal. The Lt. Governor of North Carolina, known for his extreme views, and way-out-of-the-mainstream musings, is alleged to have been into all sorts of kinky things and expressed them on a website called 'Nude Africa.' Normally, we here at Ford News would have no issue with Mr. Robinson's supposed love of things like Transgender Porn, but when he has been spewing hatred out of his mouth for years, the hypocrisy is overwhelming. Also, there's a possibility he slept with his wife's sister! By the way, he also referred to himself as a "Black Nazi," so that's fun!
In segment two, we take a trip out to Johnathan's neck of the woods in Omaha, NE to discuss the unique way that the state of Nebraska awards its electors. We discuss a scenario where the one elector representing the Omaha area, which is blue, could turn the election one way or another. The GOP is trying to rework the way Nebraska does this. No surprise here.
Finally, in the Ford Fact Check, Johnathan discusses the new vote-counting rules down in Georgia. What does it mean to hand-count votes?
Oh, and Johnathan makes some BOLD election predictions!

On this episode of Ford News, Brian and Johnathan start the show by catching the audience up on the Breaking News surrounding a possible assassination attempt on Donald Trump at a golf course in Palm Beach. Who is Ryan Wesley Routh? How did he manage to get so close to the former president with a long gun? There are still so many questions.
In segment two, the guys agree that Kamala Harris demolished Donald Trump in last week's debate. Harris was able to bait Trump into becoming unhinged. No, she wasn't wearing a listening device and no she wasn't given the questions beforehand.
This week's "Ford Fact Check" concentrates on the stupid, idiotic, story line that Haitian Immigrants are eating people's pets in Springfield, Ohio. MAGA gets more crazy as the days move on.

In this episode of Ford News, Johnathan and Brian start the show by discussing the disgraceful incident with Donald Trump, his campaign, and the folks at Arlington National Cemetary. We also remind you of all of the other times that Trump has been disrespectful to our troops and veterans.
In segment two, we welcome Tambrei Cash, who is running for congress out of the 9th District in Georgia. Tambrei has a great story. She was just a business owner and a mom to three who decided to jump into politics because she wants a better future for her kids.
This week's Ford Fact check has to focus on Kamala Harris and the "Fake News" that she was the Border Csar.

On this episode of Ford News, Johnathan and Brian discuss the momentum of the Harris-Walz campaign. We talk about the number of volunteers and the amount of money they have raised. Johnathan brings up the polls, and Brian doesn't want to hear any of it after the 2016 polling debacle.
In segment two, we reluctantly wheel out the amount of crap that RFK Jr. has spewed and been involved with. A bear. A whale. Jeffrey Epstein. And, we tell you how much his dropping out of the campaign and endorsing Donald Trump helps Trump (HINT - It Doesn't ).
This week's "Ford Fact Check" brings you the facts about illegal immigration and the bill that was going to make things tighter at the border was killed by Donald Trump himself.

On this episode of Ford News, Johnathan and Brian talk about the uneven news coverage of Vice President Harris and Governor Walz's rallies, compared to the airing of a full Donald Trump press conference where he lied over 120 times.
In the second segment, we talk about fake electors, again. This time it's Arizona where indictments may be closer to coming down as former Trump lawyer Jenna Ellis has decided to cooperate with the prosecution. And, MAGA is preparing to try the same shenanigans again if Trump loses. Keep your eyes open.
The "Ford Fact Check" focuses on Tim Walz's military career as MAGA has thrown out the term 'Stolen Valor.' It's all a bunch of hogwash as Tim Walz served this country honorably for 24 years.

On this episode of Ford News, Johnathan, and Brian start by talking about the amazing news of four hostages freed from Russian prisons and brought back home. Paul Whelan, Evan Gershkovich, Alsu Kurmasheva, and Vladimir Kara-Murza landed back at Joint Base Andrews, greeted by President Biden and Vice President Harris. It was a joyous occasion that was months in the making. The amazing turn of events is another example of Joe Biden being one of the most successful presidents in recent history.
Segment two brings us to talk about the widespread support for Kamala Harris as she has secured the Democratic Party's nomination. There have been multiple Zoom calls with thousands of supporters that have raised millions and millions of dollars. She has garnered support from all corners of the US from a multitude of segments of the US population. It has been surprising, but refreshing.
The "Ford Fact Check" focuses on the false narrative that the Democratic Party pulled off a "coup" to replace President Bide on the ticket with Kamala Harris. It's a bunch of bull hockey!

On this episode of "Ford News," Johnathan and Brian are blown away by the enthusiasm that Vice President Kamala Harris is fueling a week into her run as the presumptive Democratic nominee. The money is pouring in. The volunteers are signing up. The KHive has even taken over The Villages in Florida.
While Kamala has riled up the Dems, J.D. Vance has thrown a wet towel on the Trump campaign. Diet Mountain Dew Boy brings the word weird to a whole new level. His misogynistic ways are not going over well with women or men, and his shots at childless women have not exactly gone over well, even with the likes of Trey Gowdy.
This week, Johnathan's "Ford Fact Check" focuses on the complete lie that crime is up under Joe Biden. That's not true!
We also want to shout out some great congressional candidates in Florida:
Whitney Fox, running in the FL-13th
Jennifer Adams, running in the FL-7th

On this episode of the Ford News Podcast, Johnathan and Brian react to President Biden stepping out of the 2024 campaign.
We discuss Joe Biden's legacy as a transitional president, cleaning up the mess that Donald Trump made, and guiding the country through a pandemic.
Now that Joe Biden has bowed out of the 2024 campaign, all eyes are on Vice President Kamala Harris, who is now the presumptive nominee for the Democratic Party.
The guys discuss the process that led to Joe Biden stepping out and discuss the overwhelming show of support for Kamala Harris as she takes the reigns of the campaign.
This episode's "Ford Fact Check" talks about the background and experience of Kamala Harris as voters learn more about the party's presumptive nominee. -
This edition of Ford News centers on the assassination attempt on Donald Trump. Johnathan and Brian review what happened on Saturday in western Pennsylvania.
They talk about the shooter, Thomas Crooks, and the investigation into this tragic incident, where one man lost his life, and two others, aside from the former president, were injured.

On this lucky number 13 episode of Ford News, Johnathan and Brian start the show by pointing oiut the double standard of the the media for calling on Joe Biden to step aside for being old, but almost no one is calling on Donald Trump to step aside for being a felon, or inspiring an insurrection or stealing top secret documents, or being a sexual assaulter or the one million other things that he has done. It's assenine that the media continues to push this "Biden is too old" arguement without also saying "Trump is too guilty" argument.
In Segment Two, the guys do a deep dive on Donald Trump's probably involvement with the dirtier side of the Jeffrey Epstein debacle. Trumps name appears in several legal documents that were just released. He was accuded of allegedly taking part in watching underage girls perform sexual acts on each other, before allegedly jumping into the fray himself. It's utterly disgusting and again, the media is mostly quiet on this stuff.
Segment Three brings us to the Ford Fact Check with Johnathan goes through President Biden's neurological exam that was done in February and reveals the findings. Were there any signs of neurological issues? Heres a hint: NO!

In Segment Two Jonathan talks about the TikTok debates he's been diving into in the wee hours of the morning, "educating" the MAGA folks about several issues from the NY Penal Code to inflation to the war in Ukraine and more. Believe it or not, the MAGA folks seem to be under-educated.
Segment Three brings us to the "Ford Fact Check." This week, Johnathan lays out a plethora of data about how undocumented workers contribute to the US economy. We talk about President Biden introducing border legislation on his first day in office, and debunk the thought process that liberals just want open borders.
