The American Psychological Association Created “White Allies” To Fight Antiracism

In a shocking expose, a leading mental health organization is pushing divisive and radical ideologies on its members, leaving many questioning the true purpose of their work. This episode delves into the disturbing practices of the American Psychological Association, where professionals are being taught to use cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavioral therapy to advance DEI and combat racism. But is this really what mental health professionals should be focusing on? The speaker is joined by Adam Gillette, President of Accuracy in Media, who shares his organization's findings on the APA's annual conference. The conference featured a rally-like atmosphere where attendees were encouraged to use language that promotes anti-racism and anti-colonialism. Adam explains how this kind of language is not only divisive but also damaging to mental health professionals and their patients. He also highlights the alarming lack of focus on actual mental health issues and the emphasis on promoting DEI and anti-racism instead. The conversation touches on the worrying trend of DEI being pushed in various institutions, including schools, universities, and even the Department of Justice. Adam shares his concerns about the impact of this ideology on society and the need for conservatives to fight back. He also discusses the importance of holding institutions accountable and the need for states to enact laws that prohibit the promotion of identity politics in education. If you're concerned about the state of our mental health system and the ideologies being pushed on our children, tune in to this episode to hear the full conversation and learn more about the disturbing practices of the American Psychological Association.

MD Holds Special Session On Redistricting

Maryland delegate Nic Kipke joins the program to discuss the recent special session called by Governor Wes Moore and the Democrats. The focus of the session is redistricting, a contentious issue that has long plagued Maryland politics. Kipke expresses his disappointment in the partisan gerrymander that he believes silences the minority party's voice and undermines democracy. Kipke explains that Maryland has been at the forefront of gerrymandering, with efforts to eliminate free elections and rig districts for partisan advantage. He criticizes the current special session, convened during the summer tourist season, as an unnecessary move that burdens the state. The proposed redistricting plans, Kipke argues, aim to completely silence the Republican minority, which he finds immoral and detrimental to the state's democratic process. The discussion touches on the implications of such partisan politics for Maryland's representation in national affairs. Kipke highlights that having a Republican voice in Congress could benefit the state, especially when Republicans hold power in Washington, DC. He also brings up past instances where partisan actions have backfired, citing examples from other states. Despite the bleak outlook, Kipke remains hopeful that the Senate will act with integrity and establish an independent commission for redistricting, as opposed to passing partisan maps. He urges Marylanders to engage in the upcoming election, emphasizing the importance of voting and holding leaders accountable.

Spain's Border Invasion Is America's Wake Up Call

In a surprising and alarming event, on July 30th, 60,000 Arab Moroccan Muslims swarmed into the Spanish exclave of Ceuta, dramatically altering its demographic landscape. This border invasion raises significant geopolitical concerns, particularly as Spain, under the leadership of leftist President Pedro Sanchez, has been advocating for open borders and recently announced plans for amnesty for millions of illegal immigrants within its borders. The incident has prompted reactions from other European leaders, such as Italy’s Giorgia Meloni, who is considering withdrawing from the Schengen Agreement's reciprocity with Spain. This event underscores the potential consequences of leftist governance and open-border policies, highlighting the risks of outsourcing national sovereignty to transnational entities. The situation in Ceuta serves as a stark warning for the United States, illustrating what could unfold if similar policies are adopted here. It emphasizes the urgent need to consider the implications of open borders and the importance of maintaining national sovereignty.

First U.S. Refueling Aircraft Arrive At Air Base In Bulgaria To Support Middle East Operations

SOFIA, Bulgaria (AP) — The first two U.S. military aircraft intended to provide support for operations in the Middle East arrived Friday at an air base in southeastern Bulgaria, drawing a complaint from Iran as Bulgarian residents have also been protesting the deployment. The Trump administration has faced pushback from some European allies over the use of air bases in support of its war with Iran. But lawmakers in Bulgaria — a member of NATO and the European Union — voted earlier in July to allow the deployment of up to eight U.S. KC-135 refueling aircraft, as well as 250 personnel with personal weapons and ammunition and airfield equipment, at Bezmer Air Base. Under a 2006 U.S.-Bulgaria defense agreement, the Bezmer facility, about 260 kilometers (160 miles) southeast of the capital, Sofia, is a joint-use facility. Any new use of the base requires parliamentary approval. The deployment, requested by the U.S. Embassy in Bulgaria, is authorized until Oct. 1, 2026. U.S. President Donald Trump thanked Bulgarian Prime Minister Rumen Radev in a Truth Social post for allowing the deployment “despite Iran’s threats.” On Thursday, Bulgarian Foreign Minister Velislava Petrova assured her Iranian counterpart, Abbas Araghchi, that the deployment “in no way means a change in Bulgaria’s approach toward Iran." The two countries are important trade partners. A Bulgarian Foreign Ministry statement quoted Petrova as saying “it was out of the question" that any direct military actions linked to the conflict in the Middle East would be carried out from Bulgarian territory. The statement did not indicate what Araghchi said. But the Bulgarian state news agency, BTA, said Araghchi protested to Petrova over Bulgaria’s support for U.S. military operations against Iran during a telephone conversation initiated by the Bulgarian side. The report cited a report from Iran's state-run IRNA news agency. Residents of the village of Bezmer and nearby settlements, including the regional capital Yambol, have staged peaceful protests in recent days against the deployment of the U.S. aircraft. Government officials visited the region to address people’s fears, assuring them that the deployment is solely for logistical missions involving in-flight refueling outside Bulgarian airspace.

Trump Says Iran Not To Blame For Minnesota Cyber Attacks

CAMP DAVID, Maryland, July 31 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump at Camp David told reporters that he does not think Iran is behind a cyberattack on Minnesota water systems, despite U.S. officials reportedly suspecting otherwise. "We heard in Minnesota there was a cyberattack, and they blame it on Iran. I don't think so," Trump said during a cabinet meeting. "I think I blame it on Minnesota because they're grossly incompetent," Trump said, calling out Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, a Democrat. Trump's claim is at odds with a memo cited by Wired on Thursday which said that the Minnesota Fusion Center, a state-level intelligence-sharing entity, found that the hacks were “aligned” with an allegedly Iran-linked cybersabotage campaign. The New York Times, which cited unnamed U.S. and state officials, said Thursday that investigators believed the hacks were probably the work of Tehran.

Trump Issues Warning About Illegal Immigration

President Donald Trump has used his Cabinet meeting at the Camp David retreat in Maryland to discuss his usual talking points about the economy, the border, Iran and immigration. Trump referred Friday to the recent surge of migrants into a tiny territory of Spain and said the same thing is going to happen to the U.S. if Republicans don’t get elected in the midterms. Trump began Friday's meeting by saying, “It’s Camp David, and this room is a very, very special room.” The White House spent the morning highlighting that the meeting was the first televised Cabinet meeting at the storied presidential retreat, which was established in 1942 during Franklin Roosevelt's presidency. While addressing illegal immigration concerns, Trump mentioned the recent migrant invasion in Spain, saying: "That SAME THING is gonna happen to us if Republicans don't get elected except WORSE."
