Welcome to the American EMPIRE | Guest: Steve Friend | 1/5/26

Steve discusses the United States' actions in Venezuela, why they're marks of an empire, and why (in this case) that's a good thing. Then Steve unveils his top 10 predictions for 2026, from extraterrestrial contact to geopolitical influence-swaps. In Hour Two, FBI whistleblower Steve Friend joins the show to share the latest in his attempts to get his job back and what went wrong. Finally the team tries to figure out how things could be going (seemingly) so wrong at the DOJ.
