11-10-26 Part One - Data Centers, Credit Cards and Amnesty
2026/11/10
In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, the White House doubles down after President Trump angers his base by floating an illegal alien deal with Democrats. The White House wouldn't rule out working with Democrats despite Trump's '60 Minutes' interview drawing a conservative backlash. President Trump, in his first sit-down interview since sweeping GOP midterm losses, opened the door to the possibility of considering amnesty. Also Democratic mayors mitigate tax revenue in their counties offsetting data centers, some implementing a moratorium on AI / Dems are in "capping mode" putting 10% caps on credit cards / and how credit card companies and other lenders mitigate risk for those who have to default on the loan.

11-10-26 Part Two - John Thune Faces GOP Heat
2026/11/10
In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, Republicans are turning their wrath on Senate Majority Leader John Thune as they attempt to cope with their massive midterm defeats. A growing number of GOP members are now pushing for Senate Republicans to delay their leadership election this week, so they have more time to examine what went wrong. On Monday, Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson sent a letter to Conference Chair Tom Cotton demanding that Tuesday’s election be delayed until caucus members can hear from those seeking the top job in the upcoming minority. His letter was signed by North Carolina Sen. Ted Budd, Florida Sen. Rick Scott, Utah Sen. Mike Lee, and Louisiana Sen. John Kennedy. Also the MAGA message begins to fade / the House of Representatives is barreling toward a vote on impeaching Secretary of War Pete Hegseth this week, and several GOP lawmakers think it could very well pass / and further discussion on Elizabeth Warren and other Senate Democrats wanting to cap credit card interest rates at 10%.

2026/11/09

11-05-26 Part One - The Election Autopsy
2026/11/05
In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, we begin by recognizing the accomplishments of President Trump in his two terms in office, particularly in the second term by fixing all the Biden administration had destroyed. Some of his ideas and efforts never materialized, but his war efforts and international relations are unprecedented. As the GOP suffered a massive blow last night, we discuss what happened and how Republicans can galvanize their coalition moving forward. Also how the economy and affordability impacted Americans during Trump's second term / how the GOP can rebound in the next two years / populist economics split the Republican party / recovering from the blue wave and how to move the party forward / legalizing marijuana now that Texas is blue / an op-ed by Jim Garrity on the President's obsession with minutia and White House aesthetics / and the tribal effect on the President's base.

11-05-26 Part Two - Trump's Delusional Comments
2026/11/05
In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, we wrap up our election autopsy by observing President Trump's delusional statements coming off the mid term losses. The "sore loser" comments reflect an attitude that have concerned us as he has served the office and how it has effected his voter base. We recognize it's part of his unique personality that has been somewhat enjoyable and greatly appreciate all of his effective actions, yet wincing at some of the comments made out of frustration or anger. Our wish is for the President to maintain his dignity and not be demonized for an off-beat narrative. Also the political idolatry of past Presidents / audio from comedian Jim Breuer being willfully ignorant / and how our listeners respond and cope with the mid term losses.

11-04-26 Part One - A Blue Tsunami Blankets the Nation
2026/11/04
In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, as we break down election results, our greatest concerns have come true en masse. Democrats have seized the House majority and will control the lower chamber of Congress for the final two years of President Trump's term. An unprecedented blue wave saw Democrats pull off stunning upsets in both battleground House districts and areas considered safe red seats. The GOP suffered major losses in four key groups: Hispanic voters, young voters, independents and rural Americans. Final numbers will be tallied in the next few days / control of the Senate is expected to shift to the DNC, following major victories including Troy Jackson's defeat of longtime Republican Sen. Susan Collins in Maine and James Talarico's win over Ken Paxton in Texas / President Trump stressed Tuesday night that he plans to use the "power of veto" to block Democrat-backed legislation / and once seated, Democrats will waste no time in attempting to undo all that President Trump has accomplished.

11-04-26 Part Two - Our Appreciation of a Great President
2026/11/04
In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, as the DNC now begins to gain control of the House and Senate, we look back at the legacy of Donald Trump as President of the United States. From the long list of accomplishments his Administration has achieved since his first term, along with his decisions out of personal respect for the office that go un-noticed, we express our appreciation to a man who was not a politician but a "builder" who, in his own unique way, began to re-build a nation that was in shambles. Now in his last two years to complete what he began, we support his careful decisions to galvanize his accomplishments to now "Keep America Great Again". President Donald J. Trump IS the Republican Party. May God continue to bless him, his administration and every patriot who loves our great nation.

11-03-26 Part Two - Democratic Tribalism
2026/11/03
In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, the guys discuss the structure of leadership in this country, and how as a tribe of people, key leadership is vital to surival. As people cast their vote today, it symbolises how they feel as putting a voice to their opinion. It's more than just a "thumbs up or down" for the candidate of their choosing.
