POLL: Who is better equipped to bring our astronauts home, Boeing or Glenn's dog, Uno?

Two astronauts who went up to the International Space Station for an eight-day mission are going to be stranded for another six months... thanks to the ineptitude of Boeing and NASA.

Astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams went up to the International Space Station aboard Boeing's newest spacecraft, the Starliner, in early June. The eight-day mission quickly became a nine-month mission as Boeing and NASA had one problem after the next over the past three months, which culminated with SpaceX being brought in to bail them out. In six months, SpaceX is set to launch a Crew Dragon spacecraft to retrieve the stranded astronauts.

This is more bad PR for Boeing coming after several high-profile malfunctions on commercial airliners, which have raised serious questions about the safety of Boeing's aircraft. This is also another glaring example of the government's ineptitude. Despite all of your taxpayer dollars, they are once again relying on a private company to bail them out.

So, what do you think? Can NASA retrieve the astronauts? Who is the most equipped to bring them home? Let us know what you think in the poll below:

How Harley-Davidson’s woke pivot betrays true American values

Modern progressives are attacking American greatness, one beloved brand at a time. But you are not powerless.

I once read an amazing analysis about the birth of modern America. It explained how veterans returned from World War II and how programs like the GI Bill opened new avenues and opportunities that hadn’t existed before.

As American soldiers returned home, many of them were battle-hardened warriors who had faced the worst of humanity. They fought for freedom and brought back skills that aren’t taught in any elementary school or university.

We learned to see American brands as icons for what we stood for, but we are now being conditioned to be 'unburdened.'

Veterans’ benefits made the American dream possible for over 13 million people. Some went to college, while others bought homes. Many started businesses, empowered by new skills in engineering, auto mechanics, and air mechanics — all fueled by a grit and determination reminiscent of the American pioneers.

A few years later, some of those men helped build the U.S. interstate highway system, which connected this new generation of American pioneers like never before. “Go West, young man” was replaced with “get your hands dirty,” “work for what you believe in,” “improve your community,” and “fix what is broken.”

Americans once took pride in maintaining their heritage. We valued American brands like John Deere, Tractor Supply, Ford, Chevrolet, Indian, and Harley-Davidson, and we actively protected their legacy. We worked on these products in the fields and in our home garages, building businesses to ensure they continued serving the American public. These weren’t just commodities. They were our livelihood. They plowed our fields, fed our families, and took our kids to school. They embodied the American spirit, symbolizing everything we were willing to fight and die for.

To the children of some of those returning veterans, how many of you learned about real American muscle while leaning over the front end of a 1965 Shelby GT, a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro, or a 1970 Chevy Chevelle, or learned about the internal combustion engine while Pop tore apart a 1941 Harley-Davidson Knucklehead?

How many of you assisted your dad in keeping the plowing season alive by repairing the family’s 1949 Model B John Deere tractor? How many trips to Tractor Supply did it take?

You no doubt bloodied a bunch of fingers. You sat in the garage, on the hood, or in the field and dumped about 10 gallons of sweat, but you did it proudly. You listened as Dad or Granddad patiently said, “There’s where the crankshaft is. That’s the water pump. That’s the alternator. That’s the fuel pump, and that’s the line that goes up to the carburetor.” He might have even let you pull on the throttle linkage so you could hear that baby sing.

There was no agenda here besides pure American greatness. American brands built our country. We relied and depended on them. We built businesses of our own from them, and we passed that legacy on to our children. It was their birthright, and it created modern America.

Harley’s woke surrender

This is a big part of the reason why today’s corporate “diversity, equity, and inclusion” craze is such a huge slap in the face. Woke politics have replaced the purity of the American brands that we grew up with. We depended on these products. We built income from them, and we supported our communities with their logos displayed proudly on barns and in garages. Those symbols are now being replaced by corporate boards who get their marching orders from people like Larry Fink at BlackRock.

Robby Starbuck has recently exposed multiple companies for this behavior: John Deere, Tractor Supply, and especially Harley-Davidson.

Can you think of a bigger slap in the face than the woke capitulation of Harley-Davidson? Harley is one of the brands that helped win World War II. The Harley-Davidson WLA carried American GIs to war against the Nazis. The WLA was brought back to the United States, and a new era of motorcycles was born after the veterans began chopping them up for civilians to use. The “chopper” was born.

Veterans returning from war from the 1940s through today have ridden Harleys as both a therapeutic mechanism to deal with what they saw on the battlefield and as an homage to experience the openness of American freedom. And that legacy has been taught and handed down to Harley-Davidson riders from father to son enthusiastically since 1903.

What has Harley-Davidson done with that legacy? Here are just a few of the things that Starbuck exposed:

  • Harley-Davidson openly supports the Equality Act, which would allow men into girls' bathrooms, sports, and locker rooms.
  • The company funded an all-ages Pride event that featured a "rage room" next to drag queen story time.
  • 1,800 employees were required to attend a virtual training course on how to become “LGBTQ+ allies.”
  • The woke CEO, Jochen Zeitz, signed the CEO Action for Diversity and Inclusion Pledge.
  • The company made February and March "months of inclusion" because, apparently, Pride Month isn’t enough.
  • The company hosted multiple woke United Way trainings.
  • Harley-Davidson sent some employees to a “white male only” woke diversity training program.
  • To top it off, the company is openly working to have fewer white suppliers, dealers, and employees.

And the list goes on.

What globalists want ... and fear

The purpose of modern cultural Marxism and progressivism is to destroy what was once great by attacking everything that made it great back in the beginning. You have to be “unburdened by what has been,” as Kamala Harris says, in order to open the door to “the fundamental transformation of America," to quote Barack Obama.

Twenty-first-century fascists are doing this, one beloved brand at a time, and we’re seeing it happen in real time. Woodrow Wilson once said, "The use of a university is to make young gentlemen as unlike their fathers as possible.” We’ve been seeing that from academia for decades. By and large, universities are lost.

Teach your kids that getting their hands dirty is a good thing. Something fought, bled, and sweat for has meaningful value. It’s part of who we are as Americans.

But that wasn’t enough. Progressives then turned their sights on our children in grade school. But that wasn’t enough either. They’re now going after the heart of the American entrepreneurial spirit and the beloved brands that made us who we are today. We were brought up to love them. We learned to see them as icons for what we stood for, but we are now being conditioned to be “unburdened.”

Reconnect your children to the basics of what makes American products so great. “American made” is more than just a slogan. It represents the weary men and women working in factories in small towns across Middle America. It’s the dad teaching his kids to change their own tires and oil. It’s the multiple trips to the local parts store and the thrill of victory as the family tractor roars back to life.

Teach your kids that getting their hands dirty is a good thing. Something fought, bled, and sweat for has meaningful value. It’s part of who we are as Americans. It benefits the family. It supports the community. It spreads that beloved American brand all over the country — and the world.

That connection goes all the way to the top of the corporate boardroom. That connection is what the globalists fear the most. Your passion has the power to destroy every coercive motive they can ever dream up. It is the same passion that fueled the American pioneer. It carried our soldiers into war against the Nazis and then drove them to catapult this country into the modern era.

That passion is why they’ll ultimately lose.

Unburden your families from the unburdening. Teach them the history of what made this country great. If a corporation tries to pervert a beloved American brand, show your kids what made them beloved to begin with.

Explain how the Harley-Davidson engine noise was specifically designed to be iconic, how the crankshaft has only one pin, and how the arrangement of the cylinders makes the pistons fire unevenly. No other motorcycle sounds the same. Why? Because it’s a friggin’ Harley! It’s part of Harley's story, and that is why American companies are so beloved to us. Sure, they sell quality products, but we fall in love with their story.

Reconnect these great American brands with their incredible stories. Get some oil, grease, and brake dust on your hands, and take pride when your kids ultimately cover their faces in it while trying to help you. Passion drives change, and it is your passion that scares these tyrants the most.

3 SHOCKINGLY corrupt FBI practices that will make your jaw drop

Ralf-Finn Hestoft / Contributor | Getty Images

The FBI's 2025 budget is $11.8 billion, and what do we have to show for it?

Former President Trump was nearly assassinated over a month ago, and we still haven't learned anything new about the shooter or his motives. What is the FBI doing with all the money it spends besides arresting reporters and listening to our phone calls? Recently, Glenn had former FBI agent and whistleblower Steve Friend on his show to discuss what exactlythe FBI is up to, and — spoiler alert — it's nothing like how they are portrayed in the movies. In fact, according to Friend, it's a whole lot less like Jodie Foster and a whole lot more like the DMV with guns and badges.

So what IS the FBI up to?

Letting threats slip through their watch

The FBI spends its time hunting down the worst criminal minds in America, kicking down their doors and slapping them in irons, right? That's what they're supposed to be doing... at least on TV. As it turns out, that is not the case when it came to Thomas Crooks, the would-be Trump assassin. Apparently, he wasn't even on the FBI's radar, yet we're supposed to believe that he gave off no signs, no indication that he was liable to do something extreme right up until he pulled the trigger.

Gathering intelligence without your consent

Imaging the scene: the FBI is engaged in a stakeout. Several serious and competent agents huddle in a blacked-out van full of advanced monitoring equipment, listening to the nefarious phone call of some radical terrorist with a thick foreign accent. A compelling scene, but again, pure televised fiction. Instead, the FBI is busy listening to your phone calls and other "private" communications. According to findings by the FISA Court of Review in 2019, the FBI collects and uses information "incidentally" collected from innocent, non-suspect Americans. How this practice ever started is beyond reckoning, as it clearly violates the Fourth Amendment, not to mention common sense.

Empowering would-be-terrorists

If the FBI isn't stopping or investigating terrorists and other bad guys, what are they doing with all our tax money? According to FBI whistleblower Steve Friend, the FBI finds radical individuals in foreign nations who may have bad intentions, but with no means of carrying them out. Then, they encourage these individuals to carry out these bad intentions and even supply their plans, which include bringing them to America from foreign countries. Once the would-be-terrorist has been convinced to make an attack, the FBI jumps in, slaps handcuffs on them, and uses this "success" as justification to ask for more money from Congress. They groom terrorists for profit at the taxpayer dime.

10 CRAZIEST quotes from the DNC's opening night

MANDEL NGAN / Contributor | Getty Images

Last night, Monday, August 19th, was the opening night of the 2024 Democratic National Convention.

The event made headlines for the violent, anti-semitic protests that were held outside the convention center, but what went on inside was just as crazy. Glenn covered the event live on X and pointed out many of the insane things being touted by the Democratic party. Here are the 10 CRAZIEST quotes from the opening night of the DNC:

“We’ve had one of the most extraordinary four years of progress ever, period." —President Biden

Tom Williams / Contributor | Getty Images

This was one of those moments where they accidentally said the quiet part out loud. Biden is correct: we have made great progress—progress towards turning America into a progressive, totalitarian hellscape.

"[Chicago is the] greatest fricken city in the world." — Mayor Brandon Johnson

Chicago Tribune / Contributor | Getty Images

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson made this cringe-worthy and highly controversial comment during his opening speech early in the convention. In case his rousing speech inspired you to move to the Windy City, it's important to point out that Chicago has consistently ranked among the worst-run cities in America.

"America, I gave my best to you." — President Biden

Robert Gauthier / Contributor | Getty Images

It is hard to say if this one was a flat-out lie, or if the country's current state really was Biden's best. It's sad either way.

“The decision overturning 'Roe v. Wade,' that you heard earlier tonight, the United States Supreme Court majority wrote the following: 'Women are not without electrical, are not, not allowed, are not without electoral or political power.'” — President Biden

The Washington Post / Contributor | Getty Images

It wouldn't be a Biden speech without some gaffe. In that sense he didn't disappoint.

“During the pandemic, Kamala and I helped states and cities get their schools back open.” — President Biden

Robert Gauthier / Contributor | Getty Images

This is yet another example of the Democrats trying to rewrite history. In 2020, Biden and Kamala ran on keeping schools closed and keeping your children in masks and isolated far longer than was necessary.

"Families building better lives, parents stretching to afford childcare, young people struggling to pay their rent, they’re all asking us to keep going." — Hillary Clinton

Tom Williams / Contributor | Getty Images

Hillary Clinton was invited to speak at the DNC to give her support for Kamala. In typical Clinton fashion, she made the above, out-of-touch comment, as anyone who is actually struggling financially is begging for the current economic situation to stop.

"Donald Trump said, and I quote, 'There are very fine people on both sides.'" — President Biden

Robert Gauthier / Contributor | Getty Images

Biden also took the opportunity to spread long-disproved lies about former President Trump during his speech. Biden, along with dozens of mainstream media minions over the years, claimed that Trump called the neo-Nazis and white nationalists present at the Charlottesville rally in 2017 "very fine people," which is taking the quoteway out of context and excluding the part of the speech where Trump explicitly condemns the neo-Nazis and white nationalists.

"On the other side of that glass ceiling is Kamala Harris raising her hand and taking the oath of office as our 47th President of the United States." — Hillary Clinton

Tom Williams / Contributor | Getty Images

It doesn't matter if you believe in the glass ceiling or not. Is Kamala Harris really the person women want to represent the first female president?

“Donald Trump would be able to weaponize the Department of Justice to go after his political opponents! He could even turn the FBI into his own personal police force!” —Michigan Senator Mallory McMorrow

Chip Somodevilla / Staff | Getty Images

Accusing their opponents of the crimes they are guilty of themselves is a common occurrence within the Democrat party...

“We are going to build a darker, hipper, sneaker-wearing labor movement.” — Union Boss April Verrett

Bill Clark / Contributor | Getty Images

This cringe-worthy line came across as trying to "relate to the youths," and coming woefully short.
