Pags: The Left Isn't Hiding It Anymore + Daniel Turner on America's Nuclear Future - July 27 Hr 3 Jul 28, 2026

Show notes

Pags breaks down a series of jaw-dropping moments that he says prove today's Democrats aren't even trying to hide their agenda anymore. From Democratic Socialists openly pushing socialism on national television to Chuck Schumer declaring the SAVE Act "dead on arrival," Pags asks how far the left is willing to go. He reacts as Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth declares the southern border has been virtually shut down, calls out Sen. Jon Ossoff for an awkward defense of Mark Kelly, and exposes newly surfaced deleted social media posts from Darializa Avila Chevalier praising Marxism and communist leaders. Then Daniel Turner, founder of Power the Future, joins the show to explain why America's energy future may depend on a nuclear renaissance. What do President Trump's new executive orders really do? Why has the U.S. fallen behind on nuclear energy? Is the technology finally safe enough to power America's AI revolution? Turner answers those questions and explains why nuclear power could be the key to America's economic and national security future.

Has Iran’s military truly been decimated? How depleted are America’s weapons stockpiles?
