Defending American Principles – an Interview with Senator Ted Harvey – Episode 273

Blunt Force Truth

Senator Ted Harvey, a leader in the Conservative movement and a founding member of the Committee to Defend the President, brings his extensive experience within the political sphere to discuss the shameful trend in which Representatives in Congress are failing to stand up for America. Congress is usually fighting against the American people. Democrats seem to be suffering from a psychosis now, and Republicans have lost their backbone in defending the policies that will put Americans first. Constituents need to stand up and vote these representative out of office. They consider who in Congress is actually a Conservative based on their records, calling out those who only masquerade as such. The conversation turns to the impending vote on DACA and the influence of lobbyists like the Chamber of Congress. Senator Harvey talks about the work of the Committee to Defend the President, a political action committee that stands up against the false narratives about President Trump being pushed by George Soros and the mainstream media. On the podcast, Chuck and Mark also cover the debt ceiling and what the federal government’s actual powers are. They talk about government shutdowns and the offer they made during the Obama administration to pay the wages of the National Park Service employees at the WWII Memorial. Mark and Chuck wanted to keep the monument open while the President ordered it closed.
