Kyle contrasts the professional leadership of Speaker Mike Johnson with Hakeem Jeffries’ fiery (and unprintable) response to Florida redistricting, breaks down the high-stakes Iran nuclear talks, U.S. sanctions, and economic blockade, and stresses why expanding Republican majorities in the midterms is critical.

    Plus:

    • The SAVE Act for election integrity, why some GOP senators blocked it, and strong words from Senator John Kennedy
    • Shocking DOJ indictments against the Southern Poverty Law Center and Chuck Schumer’s spin
    • Inspiring interview with Focus on the Family counselor Rob Jackson on how to build healthy relationships with adult children
    • Dr. Ted Baehr of MovieGuide.org on creating successful films with a Christian worldview
    • Powerful Bible readings from Matthew 26 (Garden of Gethsemane) and President Trump reading 2 Chronicles 7: “If My people… I will heal their land.”

    A full-spectrum episode blending timely political analysis, cultural insight, and biblical truth.

    Listen now and stand on the promises of God!

  • Supreme Court Strikes Down Trump Tariffs: Setback or Smarter Path Ahead? Plus Iran Deadline Looms
    Feb 20 2026

    Join Bill Bunkley for a special edition of The Bill Bunkley Show—your daily briefing at the intersection of faith and life—broadcasting live from Tampa across Central Florida on Salem Radio and letstalkfaith.com.

    In this blockbuster episode (February 20, 2026), Bill dives deep into two massive developing stories dominating the news:

    1. The U.S. Supreme Court's stunning 6-3 ruling striking down President Trump's broad tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA). Hear the surprising lineup (Roberts, Sotomayor, Kagan, Jackson, Gorsuch, Barrett in the majority; Kavanaugh's strong dissent joined by Thomas and Alito), President Trump's passionate White House press conference response—calling out "disloyal" justices while vowing powerful alternatives—and his immediate executive order for a new 10% global tariff under Section 122. Bill breaks down the legal details, potential refunds of billions in collected duties, and why this may ultimately strengthen presidential trade authority rather than end it.
    2. Escalating tensions with Iran: President Trump warns of a 10-15 day window (potentially as soon as early March) for a deal on nuclear enrichment and ballistic missiles—or face consequences. With massive U.S. naval assets (including carriers) positioning in the region, Bill analyzes the timeline, possible pre-strike actions, and implications for national security.

    Plus, in hour two: Paul Assay from Focus on the Family's Plugged In shares practical wisdom from the Parents' Guide to Technology—tackling screen time, social media dangers, family tech rules, and avoiding hypocrisy in parenting. They also review the uplifting new film I Can Only Imagine 2, perfect for families seeking stories of reconciliation, faith, and overcoming struggles.

    Don't miss Bill's closing thoughts on local events like Ybor City's Fiesta Day and why supporting faith-friendly movies on opening weekend matters.

    Listen weekdays at 3 PM ET on letstalkfaith.com, FaithTalk Tampa, or your favorite podcast platform. Call in live: 877-943-9673.

    Jan 27 2026

    Today on The Bill Bunkley Show, listeners are in for a thoughtful and wide-ranging conversation covering some of the most meaningful and talked-about stories of the day. The program begins with an important reflection on Holocaust Remembrance Day, honoring the lives lost and reinforcing the responsibility to remember history and confront hatred wherever it appears. From there, attention shifts to Florida politics with the latest updates on the hospitalization of the Florida Senate President and the potential implications at the Capitol. First Lady Casey DeSantis speaks out about concerns surrounding arsenic reportedly found in candy, a story raising serious questions about consumer safety and public health. Weather also takes an unexpected turn, with the possibility of rare snow flurries across Central Florida capturing statewide attention. The show further highlights a noteworthy announcement from Congressman Vern Buchanan and examines national headlines involving Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem—benched, but not out. As always, Bill Bunkley provides insight, context, and commentary on the issues shaping Florida and the nation, with much more discussion throughout the show.
