Joe Oltmann Untamed | Guest Will Tanner | America: On The Brink | 01.26.26

America is at a breaking point. Today’s show dives into the escalating chaos surrounding ICE operations in Minneapolis, where federal agents are being openly tracked, doxed, and obstructed by organized mobs operating through “rapid response” Signal groups. What’s happening on the streets isn’t spontaneous protest, it's coordinated interference fueled by sanctuary policies that force ICE into direct confrontation while state and city leaders refuse to cooperate. The result is clear violence, destruction, and lives lost, all while the media obscures the deeper truth behind the unrest.

We’re joined by Will Tanner, co-founder of The American Tribune and a leading analyst of Rhodesia and Old World collapse, to draw chilling historical parallels. From elite betrayal and demographic shifts to the erosion of national identity and meritocracy, Tanner explains how great nations fall and why America is flashing the same warning signs. This is a sobering conversation about hierarchy, borders, cultural cohesion, and whether the republic still has the will to defend itself before decline becomes irreversible.

Federal warnings, Trump administration demands to Minnesota leadership, continued assaults on ICE agents, and the spread of radical agitation beyond Minneapolis into places like Colorado. With vehicles destroyed, agents attacked, and officials fanning the flames, the question becomes unavoidable where does America go from here? Today’s episode confronts that question head-on. Patrick is sitting in for Joe, with Tommy Carrigan co-hosting, as they break down what’s next for a nation that feels truly under siege.
