On Monday, July 19, 2021, Kim Monson examines two threats to liberty: a deceptive ballot initiative disguised as education funding, and the growing political divisions that threaten American unity. Musician and activist Reggie Carr, founder of I’m a Trumpster, shares his vision for bridging the divide through music.

The LEAP Initiative: Following the Money

Start listening at 0:43 – Hour 1

Kim Monson opens with an urgent warning about the Learning Enrichment and Academic Progress (LEAP) program, a proposed ballot initiative that would raise marijuana taxes ostensibly for children’s education. Research by Patty Kurgan reveals that the initiative would create an unelected, unaccountable authority controlling all funding decisions.

The authority would answer to neither voters, the legislature, nor the Department of Education. Kim points to Tony Lewis as one beneficiary who aims to create a parallel education system. She urges listeners to examine the endorsement page at leap4co.com and contact supporters to reconsider their backing. A Republican fundraiser in Cherry Hills the following evening planned to raise money for LEAP, with presenting sponsors at $10,000 and tickets at $250.

Bridging Political Divides Through Music

Start listening at 14:54 – Hour 1

Reggie Carr explains his evolution from I’m a Trumpster to a broader unity movement. After his business partner Johnny returned to Atlanta, Carr developed IMA United, a music project bringing together artists from across the political spectrum. His experience with intellectual property theft in China awakened him to international trade issues that Trump addressed.

Carr’s approach uses music to bypass media filters and reach youth and ethnic communities. He emphasizes that conversations at Trump rallies focused on God, country, and shared values rather than the divisive narratives portrayed in mainstream media. The project brings together liberals, independents, Democrats, and Republicans in the studio, creating dialogue where arguments would fail.

“See, you can’t have a conversation when you’re arguing. So you have to check, not checkers. So when you get people of all affiliations involved, it’s more harmony.”

Parental Rights Under Assault

Start listening at 51:55 – Hour 1

Kim highlights a lawsuit filed by four parents against the District of Columbia over laws allowing children as young as 11 to receive vaccines without parental consent. The Children’s Health Defense and Parental Rights Foundation argue the law strips constitutional protections and bypasses the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act of 1986.

The discussion examines the FDA’s ongoing failure to fully approve any COVID-19 vaccine while the government pushes vaccination on minors. Kim and Producer Steve connect this to broader concerns about government overreach, including reports of the Biden administration monitoring text messages for vaccine-related content.

Texas Democrats and COVID Theatrics

Start listening at 37:27 – Hour 1

Kim and Producer Steve discuss the Texas Democrats who fled to Washington D.C. on a chartered plane without masks, only to have four test positive for COVID-19 after meeting with Vice President Kamala Harris. The incident forced Harris to make an unscheduled trip to Walter Reed, raising questions about the effectiveness of vaccines and the administration’s credibility on COVID messaging.
