Helen Raleigh joins Kim to explain her work with Young America for Freedom educating high schoolers on the dangers of socialism. Raleigh has been engaging in educational presentations geared towards high school students, aiming to provide a more critical perspective on socialism. These informative sessions, which are organized by Young America for Freedom, mark her second consecutive year of involvement. Within these presentations, Raleigh emphasizes a key point: socialism has a singular form, characterized by extensive government control over production and distribution, a view that holds true even in the context of Nazi socialism. Another fundamental aspect Raleigh underscores is the historical track record of socialism, which she contends invariably culminates in failure and catastrophe. Her dedication to raising awareness about the perils of socialism stems from her personal experiences growing up in China, where she witnessed firsthand the impact of this ideology on society. Listen to the full interview in the first hour.

Interview with Cynthia Hughes

Cynthia Hughes with the Patriot Freedom Project joins Kim to discuss the actions of El Paso GOP Vice Chair, Todd Watkins, who recently dispatched a letter to multiple officials, seeking their signatures to advocate on behalf of individuals who have faced incarceration in connection to their involvement in the events of January 6th. Watkins contends that the imprisonment of these individuals is unjust and warrants immediate attention. However, Representative Ken Buck, known for his staunch conservative stance, vehemently rejected the letter, asserting that it was excessively biased and founded on misinformation. Listen to the full interview in the first hour.

Interview with Trent Loos

In Boulder County, a project was unveiled last year with the aim of employing goat and cattle grazing to reduce the threat of wildfires. For Loos, a farmer with a longstanding commitment to emphasizing the significance of livestock, this development carries a touch of irony, as he and others in the farming community have advocated for the value of livestock in wildfire mitigation for decades.

Meanwhile, in certain rural areas, there is growing interest in enhancing rural broadband infrastructure, even when existing internet access is already operational. This has raised concerns among some residents about the potential misuse of such initiatives to infringe upon property rights, posing questions about the balance between improving connectivity and safeguarding property ownership.
