• America: Challenging Tyranny Inside and Out | The Rob Maness Show EP 627
    Jan 25 2026

    America’s Marxist-Islamist led insurgency is heating up in the frozen city of Minneapolis as Governor Walz, Attorney General Ellison, and Mayor Frey get DOJ subpoenas. We’re seeing mobs of Somali immigrants stalking ICE operations and accosting innocent citizens on the street, not to mention independent reporters like Nick Sortor being assaulted and robbed by them. The entire left wing financed network of Antifa-based terrorists is activated in Minneapolis indicated by the Black Lives Matter led incursion into a Southern Baptist Church service that none other than former CNN employee Don Lemon participated in as an active member of the group. There are indications that other large and small city’s cells are taking direct action in support of the Minnesota cells and that should be of heightened concern to all of us. Layered over all this domestic activity the Trump administration is aggressively implementing its national security strategy through high impact short military action revealing new types of weaponry while it is seeking peace in places like Gaza with its Board of Peace concept and reaching an agreement with NATO over Greenland, to the surprise of many of the old, failed, globalist cabal. My guest today is independent journalist Matt Tardio. As a Green Beret Matt Tardio lead several operations in Afghanistan that decimated ISIS-K without losing a single Green Beret. In addition to his time in the military fighting against terrorists around the world, Matt gained knowledge and experience as a Police Officer, he trained numerous SWAT Teams and Officers to respond to active shooter situations. Matt is also Host of Speak The Truth which you can find on youtube @speakthetruthactual.

  • Foreign and Domestic: Resetting America | The Rob Maness Show EP 627
    Jan 24 2026

    When places of worship are attacked simply because white people are the worshipers, society is at a place of great danger. That is where America is today domestically as we focus on policies that serve Americans first inwardly and outwardly at the world. What President Trump ran and won on, winning a historic second term, is working and the globalists around the world are upset. I say let them stew in their anger and watch us win. And we are. Peace is breaking out more around the world than is war as we see histories first Board of Peace be created by President Trump in Gaza, America’s economy come roaring back, and yes, even some liberal white women have been won over by the facts, escaping the propaganda narrative of the likes of CNN and others. President Trump is at Davos today, the beating heart of Globalism and I hope he puts a stake through that vampire’s heart. My guest today to discuss all this is Veteran TV News Producer, Host of The Analyst Substack, Former Diplomat, and Host of the Real American Sunrise Early Edition Jake Novak!

  • Iran on Fire: The People Rise Up, Implications for the West | The Rob Maness Show EP 626
    Jan 22 2026

    The lessons of the Iranian revolution have been learned in blood and death these past five decades. Every inch of Western society is touched by the Islamic government there as it tries to achieve supremacy throughout the Middle East using its proxies like Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis and even attempt to become a nuclear weapon state in order to threatened Europe and the United States. The scourge has been imported into our countries now and is becoming more powerful every day as they win elected office in places like New York City and Minneapolis. We cannot stand by and be passive as we watch another attempt to overthrow the Mullahs by the Iranian people once again. With the internet blackout continuing it is difficult to tell what is happening in Iran on the ground. The limited reports we are getting is that the protests are continuing but tens of thousands of unarmed protesters are being killed every night. My guest today is Juliana Taimoorazy, the founder the Iraqi Christian Relief Council organized to shine a light on the plight of Christians in her ancestral homeland and raise funds to deliver food, shelter and medicine to Iraq. Her own unique story as a refugee has made her a strong leader and an unshakable voice for Christians and other minorities in the Middle East today. Born and raised in Iran, she has direct contact with the Iranians in exile as well as connections with people inside the country, so we’re discussing the current political and humanitarian conditions in Iran. Taimoorazy has advised many U.S. based organizations and institutions, has consulted on developing policy and as a leading international advocate, is a two time Nobel Peace Prize nominee for advancing awareness of persecution of Christians and other minorities in the Middle East.

  • Greenland, Maritime Strategy, Maritime Superiority | The Rob Maness Show EP 625
    Jan 20 2026

    They’re all linked. Arctic sea routes are open and Greenland is highly vulnerable to exploitation from China and Russia. The strategic necessity for America to control all of Greenland and its surrounding seas is vital to our national interests more than ever before. This effort for America to acquire Greenland is nothing new so President Trump is not just dreaming up a weird idea, he’s acting on an existing idea to meet our defense needs in the modern world. But we won’t be successful if we can’t defend ourselves and our allies in the maritime domain. The maritime strategy underpinning the new National Security Strategy is chokepoint-focused and the effort to increase our domestic shipbuilding must be successful in order for us to achieve peace through strength and deter our main adversary, communist China. The new Trump class battleship will give America a renewed capability to control chokepoints that we really don’t have today but the key to long-term success is increasing our sealift capabilities. We cannot successfully defend the Pacific without it. No jets fly without fuel delivered by sealift and no sexy missiles like the Long-Range Anti-Ship Missile fly without those jets. Time is short as China has declared it will be ready for war in 2027. Pentagon press corps member Captain John Konrad is my guest today. He is the founder and CEO of gCaptain Maritime News and author of the book Fire On The Horizon. He is licensed to captain the world's largest ships and has sailed from ports around the world. John has built some of the world's most advanced ships and managed billion-dollar offshore construction projects in some of the world's harshest marine environments.

  • A Dirty Secret: The Weaponization of Government Against Americans Continues | The Rob Maness Show EP 623
    Jan 16 2026

    From weaponizationwatch.com: Dr. Ron Elfenbein is a Maryland emergency room physician who became a national voice during the COVID-19 pandemic, running multiple testing and monoclonal antibody treatment centers in partnership with the Maryland Department of Health and U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. He was recognized for his service with citations from the Maryland Governor, Maryland General Assembly, and the Maryland State Medical Society. Despite this record, he was indicted in April 2022 on healthcare fraud charges—an action that occurred before prosecutors had reviewed any patient charts. Dr. Elfenbein endured a three-week trial in 2023 and was initially convicted. Months later, Chief Judge James Bredar issued a 93-page opinion completely acquitting him, finding that “no reasonable jury” could have found guilt because the coding decisions at issue were legally permissible and supported by expert testimony. The judge also granted a new trial in the alternative, criticizing the government’s evidence as “atmospheric,” lacking factual and regulatory foundation. In 2025, the Fourth Circuit reversed the acquittal, placing Dr. Elfenbein back in jeopardy and facing a second trial. His counsel argues that the original prosecution was politically motivated—launched shortly after Dr. Elfenbein publicly criticized the Biden Administration’s decision to halt monoclonal antibody treatments. Letters from former Maryland Governor Robert Ehrlich describe Dr. Elfenbein as a man of integrity, a community pillar, and someone who was blindsided by an indictment that devastated his family, career, and finances. Dr. Elfenbein is now seeking intervention to end what he and his supporters call a clear case of lawfare—an unnecessary, unjust, and harmful continuation of a prosecution that the trial judge already found was legally unsupported.

  • The Center of the Storm | The Rob Maness Show EP 622
    Jan 15 2026

    And it seems North Carolina is at the center of that storm of activity in our country these days. The special operations forces that so professionally completed the Venezuela operation to capture its illegitimate and narco- terror cartel leader make their home there. The state continues to a focus on how disaster recovery operations need to improve after the lackluster performance in the Hurricane Helene response and recovery in the western part of the state. A pro-ISIS terrorist attack was prevented just before the New Year and now we find that the state has issued illegal commercial driver’s licenses at a very high rate. Coupled with recent anti-ICE protests and the discovery of potentially vast fraud operations and nationally highlighted violent crimes in the state, things aren’t slowing down. My guest today is Adam Smith, the founder and CEO of Savage Freedoms, a family man, a US Army Green Beret veteran, and he is running for Congress in North Carolina’s 11th District to address the issues the establishment politicians don’t have the stomach for.

  • Trump Doctrine Looks a Lot Like America’s Original Foreign Policy | The Rob Maness Show EP 621
    Jan 14 2026

    That’s right, Our original Presidents didn’t go around looking for democracies to create using military force in endless, but they didn’t hesitate to use those forces to protect our interests abroad and especially in the western hemisphere. President Jefferson used the Navy and Marines to protect American shipping against the Barbary pirates in North Africa and the Monroe Doctrine was developed to challenge foreign actors in our own hemisphere. President Trump appears to be following a similar path and I voted for that! The recent attack on Venezuela and capture of its Cartel leader Maduro, enforcing sanctions by capturing Ghost Fleet oil tankers on the high seas, and putting tyrants like the Iran Ayatollah on notice we will act if necessary, have all changed the geo-political environment. We are setting aside the broken globalist approach and re-engaging with the world as America, the strongest power in the world, and most importantly, acting on our national interests. The latest approach to acquire Greenland is a great example of the new approach as it is making all sides re-think how they interact with us. My guest today is a leading member of the New Pentagon Press corps that was rolled out last year. CDM Press President and CEO L. Todd Wood is wit us and he has been reporting on Secretary Hegseths US tour and all of the action we’ve been seeing lately. A former Special Operations pilot, As CEO of CDM Press, he’s on a mission to report the truth, as America’s free press should be to protect our way of life.

  • We Need America First Governors | The Rob Maness Show EP 620
    Jan 8 2026

    Friends you’ve heard me say it many times, the critical fight for our country is at the state level as much as it is at the federal. We need governors who will put their states first and support America Forst policy. That is the only pathway to resolving the divide in our country today, fight for our citizens, and not the corporations, leftist and globalists organizations, or our allies. Our governments are about serving us by defending us, protecting individual rights, and ensuring our prosperity. That is the bottom line and the first step is to defend America’s culture, the culture created by our ancestors that first created the country and making sure that all who are allowed to immigrate here are required to know, understand, and assimilate into that culture. It is time for our voices to be heard again in government at every level, and that we get the priority, not some group from overseas. The people that sent men to the moon first, that has lifted more people out of poverty than any in history, don’t need to be pushed out of job markets and opportunities in favor of people from other countries. My guest today is Casey Putsch. Casey is an automotive entrepreneur, designer, and philanthropist who is a Republican candidate in the 2026 Ohio gubernatorial election. Known to his over 350,000 YouTube subscribers as "Casey the Car Guy," he officially entered the primary race in December 2025 as an "America First" challenger to Vivek Ramaswamy.
