VOTE COUNTING IN CALIFORNIA; THE LONGEST IN THE WORLD? - #954
Michael Savage takes aim at California's slow vote-counting process, arguing that the state's weeks-long election tabulation has become a symbol of deeper political dysfunction. Comparing California to places like Florida, Germany, India, and Argentina, Savage questions why one of America's largest and most technologically advanced states takes so long to produce final results. He also reflects on his appearance on Gavin Newsom's podcast, where he says he pressed the governor directly on the issue and received what he describes as a vague "word salad" response. From there, Savage broadens the argument into a larger critique of California's political leadership, taxes, population loss, and the exodus of residents and wealth to states like Florida, Texas, and Nevada.

Gold Surpasses US Treasuries as Top Asset for Central Banks
Savage speaks with Shannon Davis, CEO of American Alternative Assets, about retirement savings trapped inside a collapsing debt system. They discuss why gold and silver remain outside the printing presses, the pressure from America's $39 trillion debt, and how rising bond rates hit regular families through mortgages, credit cards, car loans, and inflation. Davis explains why retirement accounts may not be truly diversified if everything is still tied to the dollar, and Savage warns about runaway spending, currency revaluation, and the dangers of trusting banks with your financial future. Learn why physical precious metals offer control, privacy, and peace of mind in an age of debt, inflation, and digital uncertainty.

RIOTS ARE NOT PROTESTS; ARREST THEM ALL, NOW! - #953
Savage argues that the unrest outside ICE facilities should not be treated as legitimate protest, but as riots and insurrection. He traces American protest movements from the Boston Tea Party to civil rights, Vietnam, Occupy Wall Street, Black Lives Matter, and modern anti-Trump demonstrations, contrasting lawful dissent with what he sees as organized intimidation and political agitation. Savage calls for the arrest and deportation of non-citizens involved, warns that birthright citizenship and activist legal groups are weakening the country, and frames the moment as a test of whether America will remain a nation of laws.

TRUMP'S SCORECARD - #952
Savage evaluates President Trump's record through a self-styled "Trump scorecard," grading key campaign promises, successes, or unfinished business. He offers concern about the war with Iran, the growing national debt, the failure to abolish the IRS, unresolved conflicts in Ukraine, unreleased Epstein and JFK files, the lack of a Fort Knox audit, and what he sees as a failure to hold officials accountable for past scandals. At the same time, he credits Trump with creating DOGE, exposing an estimated $300 billion in government waste, and securing the border without additional spending.

TULSI GABBARD - FORCED OUT AS INTEL CHIEF? - #951
Tulsi Gabbard resigned as director of national intelligence, citing her husband's rare bone cancer diagnosis. But sources claimed that Gabbard was forced to resign as the intel chief. Gabbard's non-interventionist foreign policy views frequently clashed with President Trump's military strikes on Iran. Gabbard, a veteran and current Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Army Reserve, spoke with Savage about her political evolution from Democrat to Republican. Learn how Gabbard and her parents have been longtime listeners of the Savage Nation; even calling into the show! Then, listen as they discuss their shared connection to Hawaii and indigenous culture.

IRAN, TAIWAN & AI: The New World Order! With Lt. Col. Robert Maginnis - #950
Michael Savage interviews retired Army Lt. Col. Robert Maginnis about China, Taiwan, Iran, and his book The New AI Cold War: Liberty vs. Tyranny in the Age of Machine Empires. McGinnis says the Trump–Xi summit produced pomp but few substantive outcomes, possibly favoring Xi. He argues AI was central given the executives traveling with Trump. They discuss Taiwan as strategically vital due to geography, allied credibility, and semiconductor dominance, and unpack Xi's "Thucydides trap" warning. Turning to Iran, Maginnis frames a "fork" between tolerating Tehran's nuclear progress or seizing and dismantling dispersed facilities, a difficult ground operation with uncertain intelligence. The conversation closes on AI's sweeping military and societal impact, China's open model strategy, and potential theological implications.

The Cuban Question: Did Trump Trade Sphere-of-Influence with China? - #949
Savage speculates that President Trump may have discussed a sphere-of-influence understanding with China: U.S. freedom of action in Cuba in exchange for Chinese leeway over Taiwan. He argues Cuba has been devastated by decades of military-backed communist dictatorship, leaving people desperate for medicine and food, and warns the U.S. must avoid an economic collapse that could trigger another Mariel-style migrant crisis. He suggests the U.S. appears to be moving toward a Venezuela-style playbook of removing Cuba's leadership, then working with friendlier leaders to rebuild the economy, revive tourism, and spark massive investment. He contrasts this with the Taiwan risk, mentions rumors of moving Taiwan's chip industry to Arizona, and concludes Americans mainly care about pocketbook issues—gas, bread, and inflation.

THE ROARING 20'S ARE BACK! WHEN WILL THE BUBBLE BURST? - #948
Savage explains how the U.S. feels like a replay of the Roaring '20s—corruption, excess, and a looming crash—citing national debt surpassing GDP and high gas prices in California. He compares HBO's "Boardwalk Empire" to today's "gangster capitalism" and then shares how Napoleon III serves as a cautionary tale about prosperity undone by war costs. Savage says he's alarmed by pressure on President Trump from pro-war talkers and the military-industrial complex to escalate the war in Iran, warning this could draw in Russia and China. He then reads from Mao's "Little Red Book" where Mao calls "democratic socialism" a road to communism. He concludes by condemning Bernie Sanders and the Communist Party while calling for divine help for America.
