Even Republican-controlled states dominated by conservative voters such as Tennessee have seen ballooning budgets despite the wishes of the public, explained Representative Monty Fritts in this interview with The New American magazine’s Alex Newman on Conversations That Matter. 



Fritts, who is also running for governor, blasted the political class for continuing to grow both spending and taxes. He also slammed new spending programs such as the “voucher” scheme that is now funneling taxpayer money to Islamic schools in Tennessee. 



One critical element of restoring honest government is bringing a faith-based, biblical perspective back into politics, Rep. Fritts said.  

Despite following every demand of the hospital and doctors to treat their son’s leukemia, the hospital and medical establishment STILL reported Shelly Boyce’s family to Child Protective Services because the boy did not look sick enough…. Seriously. 



In this explosive interview on Conversations That Matter with The New American magazine’s Alex Newman, Boyce and her attorney explain the nightmare they currently find themselves in. 



Unfortunately, this sort of abuse by the medical system is becoming more and more common nationwide, Newman warns.  

The success of Islamo-Socialist Zohran Mamdani’s candidacy for NYC mayor is a bad sign, showing a shifting of the Democrat Party into an all-out anti-American alliance seeking to destroy and conquer the United States, explained Congressman Randy Fine (R-FL) to The New American’s Alex Newman for Conversations That Matter. There can be no unity with such radicals, he said.



Congressman Fine has introduced multiple bills addressing the issue, including the Disqualifying Dual Loyalty Act, which would prohibit dual citizens from becoming congressmen, and the No Shari’a Act, to stop the application of Shari’a law where constitutional rights might be violated.



Pivoting to the government shutdown, Fine, serving Florida’s 6th congressional district, said the Democrats are holding out to protect the failure of Obama’s unconstitutional “Affordable Care Act” and provide healthcare for illegal immigrants. Republicans, he concluded, must fight to stop the national debt, or the country will collapse.

When Charlie Kirk gave his life for truth, he ignited a movement. In this powerful episode of Conversations That Matter, author, teacher, and apologist Alex McFarland—a close friend of Charlie’s—joins Alex Newman to reveal how Kirk’s legacy has created a once-in-a-generation moment for Christian patriots to reclaim the culture. McFarland challenges the church in America to rise up, teach the whole Word of God, and speak boldly on every issue—including politics—just as Charlie Kirk courageously did until the end.

Leftists are using the assassination of Charlie Kirk to push censorship and “hate speech” tyranny, explains educational researcher Lisa Logan to The New American’s Alex Newman on Conversations That Matter.



Artificial intelligence is being weaponized to rig algorithms to hunt down speech that challenges narratives to squelch the truth.



Furthermore, Logan connects significant dots between social-emotional learning peddled in government schools and the occult.

49 out of 50 state government “public” schools are knowingly adopting the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), which pushes “equity” and wokeness instead of the scientific method, explains John Droz, a physicist and the author of the Critically Thinking Substack, to The New American’s Alex Newman for Conversations That Matter. 



Ultimately, government schools are indoctrinating children by design to absorb radical, anti-American, anti-God ideologies. Parents must rescue their children from these institutions immediately. The fate of the nation depends on it. 

Democrats shut down the government because they refused to stop funding healthcare for illegal immigrants and cut unconstitutional spending, explains Texas Congressman Keith Self in an exclusive interview with The New American’s Alex Newman for Conversations That Matter. 



House Republicans have done their job, Rep. Self argued; now is the time for Democrats to negotiate and drop their “outrageous, egregious demands.”



Pivoting from the budget, Congressman Self also discussed H.R. 4730, which would fight revisionist and progressive history by restoring the Smithsonian and federally funded museums and parks to reflect America’s true heritage.



Additionally, in this must-see interview, Rep. Self condemned the growing use of abortion pills and the necessity of House Republicans to codify President Trump’s executive orders into law. 

Wyoming is leading the way on cleaning up elections systems and pushing back on the “green” energy scam despite a liberal governor and massive leftwing infiltration of the Republican Party, explained Secretary of State Chuck Gray in this interview with The New American magazine’s Alex Newman on Conversations That Matter. The changes include requiring proof of citizenship to vote, cleaning up the voter rolls, and more. 



Gray, a former legislator, warned that a “troika” of insider forces including the fake media are trying to stop these common-sense reforms. But even in the face of establishment pushback, the victories keep coming. The Wyoming Secretary of State also mentioned that he had just returned from a meeting at the White House as his counterparts in other states work with the White House to rein in these abuses and protect the integrity of elections.  

State legislatures can move faster than Congress can, and now is the time for all states to create and strengthen their Freedom Caucuses to protect individual liberties, explains Louisiana State Representative Beryl Amedee to Alex Newman on Conversations That Matter for The New American. 



Freedom Caucuses are coalitions of legislators who are committed to limited government, the U.S. Constitution, and safeguarding liberty. Currently, only thirteen states have Freedom Caucuses. This network must expand to all 50 states. 



Now more than ever, states must reclaim their sovereignty from Deep State forces in Washington, D.C., and globalists abroad. Establishing Freedom Caucuses is a significant step to that end. 

Bonnie Wallace, a Texas mother and activist, was sued for urging her County Commission to remove disgusting sexual books intended to groom and harm children in libraries.



Upon hearing about the materials, she couldn’t believe it. But after doing research and discovering the heinous imagery in the books firsthand, she had to take action, Wallace explained to Alex Newman for The New American’s Conversations That Matter.



Now, she has been on a crusade to clean up America’s libraries and has traveled the nation on a mission. “Let me tell you, I have been in over 1,000 libraries, and I am sad to say that I have not found one clean library. Not one,” Wallace revealed.



Parents and concerned citizens MUST get involved and protect children before it is too late.

The leftist weaponization of law enforcement and the justice system is still ongoing despite President Trump’s efforts to rein it in, warned his longtime attorney Christian Bobb in this interview with The New American magazine’s Alex Newman on Conversations That Matter. 



Bobb, who is herself still being criminally prosecuted by lawless officials in Arizona, called for strong action to hold those responsible accountable for their actions. She is confident that Trump will be able to reverse the trend and get America back on the right path. 



Bobb was Trump’s attorney at Mar-a-Lago when the FBI raided his home. Her new book Defiant: Inside the Mar-a-Lago Raid and the Left’s Ongoing Lawfare gives the definitive account of one of the most significant political scandals in U.S. history. 

Restoring marriage amid the devastating attack coming against it is essential to saving the nation and civilization, explained North Carolina judge turned Southern Evangelical Seminary President Phil Ginn in this interview on Conversations That Matter with The New American magazine’s Alex Newman.  



Ginn, whose seminary is hosting a marriage conference in October to defend the institution, pointed out that the biblical understanding of marriage has largely been lost. The Bible says marriage is a representation of the relationship between Christ and the church, which offers clear insight into how it should run. 



Judge Ginn believes the crumbling of marriage is a symptom of the broader collapse of culture. But it is not too late to turn it around. He believes that saving marriages could be part of a larger revival that might transform America once again. 

As more information comes out about the devastating effects of the Covid injections, more and more people around the world are seeking to find unvaxxed blood for transfusions. Now there is an option. Dr. Clinton Ohlers, vice president of Safe Blood, joined Alex Newman on Conversations That Matter for The New American to discuss how his organization is helping match unvaxxed donors with those in need. 



The effort began when scientists and medical professionals began examining vaxxed blood under a microscope. “They saw in every case they looked at, the vaxxed blood was affected,” Ohlers said.



The predictions that there would be health problems with those who receive donations of vaxxed blood were correct, he added. Among other examples, Dr. Ohlers cited multiple babies who received blood transfusions from vaxxed donors and then died from myocarditis and other issues related to contaminated blood. 



To meet the growing demand for pure blood, Safe Blood is now working across the United States and internationally to pair blood transfusion recipients in need with unvaxxed donors whose blood has not been contaminated with the mRNA injections. Now, Big Pharma is fighting back. But the demand keeps growing. 

It is time for Congress to rein in and audit the Federal Reserve as it continues to undermine the U.S. dollar and usurp new powers, explained U.S. Congressman Warren Davidson on Conversations That Matter with The New American magazine Senior Editor Alex Newman.



Davidson, who has sponsored and co-sponsored multiple bills targeting the Fed, warned that the dollar’s position as the global reserve currency is under threat. He also explained that Congress must know what is going on, as the Fed cannot be unaccountable.



Rep. Davidson is working on numerous other important pieces of legislation, he explained. Among those he discusses in this interview: Excluding illegal immigrants from the Census to ensure proper congressional representation, ending immunity from liability for vaccine manufacturers, repealing the “PREP Act,” and commissioning research on Trump Derangement Syndrome.

Mark McCloskey and his wife, Patricia, almost lost everything for simply defending their lives and St. Louis home from the mob. But they fought back, won, and are now helping fellow patriots who are experiencing the weaponization of justice, explains Mark McCloskey in an exclusive interview with Alex Newman for The New American’s Conversations That Matter.



In 2020, during the height of the Black Lives Matter riots, Mark and Patricia McCloskey saw an angry group of rioters coming towards their neighborhood. After the mob tore down an iron gate and poured onto their street, the couple armed themselves and stood outside their property, warning the trespassers to leave. 



Despite never firing a shot or leaving their property, the couple became the victims of a media whirlwind, garnering tens of millions of views on TV and social media. The McCloskeys were charged with the unlawful use of a weapon, a class E felony, and Mark had his law license temporarily suspended. The couple later received a pardon from Missouri Governor Mike Parson. 



After making it through the media haze and lawfare, Mark McCloskey is now working with long-time personal friend of Donald Trump, Peter Ticktin, to help January 6 prisoners get justice. 

The official narrative surrounding child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged suicide in prison is implausible and deeply flawed, argued journalist Martin Gottesfeld who spent time in the very same prison that held Epstein. 



Speaking to The New American magazine Senior Editor Alex Newman on Conversations That Matter, Gottesfeld said the story about the security camera malfunction was extremely unlikely. Whenever there is a failure, the prison gets locked down, he said. 



“It’s just too strange,” he said. “And I was in that [Special Housing Unit] SHU.”

Child abusers and rapists in Texas can offend with impunity and not even face law enforcement, with thousands of accused offenders being allowed back into the classroom without so much as a criminal investigation, explained OpenRecords.org spokesman Russell Fish in this explosive interview on Conversations That Matter with The New American magazine’s Alex Newman.



The reason for this is that Texas law gives schools the option of reporting teachers to law enforcement or the teacher credentialing agency. As such, over 90 percent of teachers accused of raping and sexually abusing children have been allowed back into the class. Less than one in ten has been removed from the class. None have been prosecuted. 



Lawmakers tried to fix the “loophole” this year as awareness spread. But incredibly, one legislator was able to make sure the provision stayed in place. Now, outraged citizens and leaders are asking Gov. Abbott to include this in the agenda for the legislature’s upcoming special session, Fish said.  

The so-called “green energy” movement is actually a scam to redistribute wealth socialist-style, explains State Representative Jim Shaw (R-OK) to The New American’s Alex Newman. 



Actually, many “green energy” companies are propped up through government subsidies and tax incentives and operate with zero operating costs, Shaw explained at G. Edward Griffin’s Red Pill Expo, where he spoke out about the scheme at length. 



The solution to the problem is local action, he concluded, encouraging engaged citizens to consider running for local office instead of simply complaining about issues on social media. 

Major victories to protect children from LGBT grooming in Canadian schools are happening thanks to the hard work of activists, explained Action 4 Canada founder and chief Tanya Gaw on this episode of Conversations That Matter with The New American magazine’s Alex Newman. 



Gaw, a Christian patriot who leads thousands of activists across Canada, celebrated recent developments in Alberta. Just a couple of years ago, there was a major win in Saskatchewan, too. And with hard work, other provinces (and American states) could see similar victories. 



But of course, Gaw’s wins have not come without price. She is currently being sued by a “drag queen” who targets children. But even in all of it, she is celebrating that the truth is coming out.

Many Americans falsely believe political corruption is just about money and power, but it is actually about achieving a global system at odds with the U.S. Constitution and biblical principles, explained former Michigan GOP chair Kristina Karamo in an exclusive interview with The New American’s Alex Newman on Conversations That Matter. The wake-up call for Americans is realizing that many Republicans serve as controlled opposition. Some of those operatives may even be among you, she warned. 



But the answer to the crisis is not apathy, according to Karamo, who ran for secretary of state in Michigan and won the Republican primary in 2022. Rather, Christians and constitutionalists must double down, taking over the Republican Party apparatus to avoid elevating candidates who have a “schizophrenic relationship with the Constitution.” This requires a highly educated, moral, and devoted population that will commit to serving locally. The Bible has the answers required, said Karamo, who hosts the Karamo report podcast and has a masters’ degree in apologetics.
