You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for March 17, 2026.

In this episode, we dig into a growing concern that should have every taxpayer asking questions: who’s really watching the money—and what happens when no one is?

We start with the latest investigation from citizen journalist Nick Shirley, who’s now turning his attention to California after exposing major fraud in Minnesota. This time, the focus is on taxpayer-funded healthcare—and the findings are raising serious red flags. We’re talking about empty offices posing as medical providers, millions in questionable billing, and a system that may be far easier to game than anyone wants to admit.

From there, we head to Capitol Hill, where the debate over the SAVE Act is heating up. Should proving citizenship be required to vote? Supporters say it’s common sense. Opponents say it’s suppression. We break down what’s really in the bill—and why the fight over it is just getting started.

We also cover major developments overseas, including escalating tensions with Iran after a high-level figure tied to the regime is taken out. What does this mean for U.S. strategy moving forward—and how should America respond?

Back at home, Attorney General Pam Bondi is facing tough questions over the Epstein files. After all the anticipation, did the release actually deliver accountability—or just more frustration?

Then we turn to a critical but often misunderstood issue: qualified immunity. With the Supreme Court now taking a closer look, we explain what it is, why it matters, and how it could reshape the balance between protecting law enforcement and holding officials accountable.

Plus American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson get personal—talking about friendships, social media, and whether political differences are tearing relationships apart in real life.

And in our Digging Deep segment, we examine claims about election integrity, alleged vote-buying schemes, and the ongoing debate over trust in the system.

We also highlight the ongoing work of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), which continues arresting and deporting individuals convicted of serious crimes across the country. As political battles rage in Washington over funding and enforcement, we take a closer look at what ICE is actually doing on the ground—and why that conversation is so contentious.

Finally, we end on a high note with Team USA in the World Baseball Classic, where pitcher Paul Skenes reminds us what it means to represent something bigger than yourself.

It’s a packed episode covering fraud, freedom, accountability, and the values that hold it all together.
