Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

President Trump’s border agenda is back in force: 100 miles of new barriers are underway, and Congress approved $46.5B to add hundreds more miles. We break down what’s funded, where, and why the politics flipped.

Plus: Chicago’s Labor Day weekend violence — the latest shooting totals vs. Governor JB Pritzker’s refusal to accept federal help — and what federal intervention has (and hasn’t) done in other cities.

Also on the rundown:

• The US Open “hat-snatcher”: a Polish CEO apologizes after grabbing a signed cap from a kid — fallout and the lesson for grown-ups in sports.

• Another Hollywood goodbye now that Trump’s back in the White House — who’s leaving and why the script feels familiar.

Trump Teases National Voter ID EO | Labor Day Gas at 5-Year Low | Coffee = Happier Mornings? (Ep 522)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

President Trump says he’ll sign an executive order to require voter ID nationwide — and the left is losing its mind. We break down what he posted, what courts have said before, and what it would take to make voter ID universal.

Plus, a little relief at the pump: Labor Day gas prices are projected around $3.15/gal (GasBuddy) — the lowest Labor Day average in five years. Why prices are dropping and what could come next.

Good news for your morning ritual: a new study finds that your first cup of coffee actually boosts happiness and enthusiasm (not just alertness). We unpack the science — and why the ritual itself matters.

Also: Rudy Giuliani is recovering after a serious car crash; we share the latest on his condition. And we pause to honor the meaning of Labor Day — the dignity of work, the American worker, and the values that built this country.

Minneapolis Church Shooting: Victim Named | What Obama Knew on Russiagate (Ep 520)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

Minneapolis mourns. We now know the name of one of the two young victims from this week’s church shooting, and his father vows his son will not be forgotten. We share the latest on the victims and survivors—and what went wrong.

Then we break down newly declassified documents indicating former President Barack Obama attended key 2016 briefings with his intel and national-security team related to the Trump–Russia probe. What did Obama know—and when? We sort facts from spin.

South Carolina Lt. Governor Pamela Evette joins to discuss the Minneapolis shooting, what SC is doing to keep students safe, and where school security, mental-health intervention, and law enforcement coordination must improve.

Plus: a former nuclear inspector from SC—charged with threatening multiple presidents—has been found too delusional to stand trial for now. If we can identify severe mental-health risks in a case like this, why do so many red flags fail to stop troubled young men before they target schools?

"Minneapolis Massacre: Children Killed in Church Shooting as Democrats Push Gun Control" (Ep 519)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

Two children are dead. Seventeen more are injured. In today’s episode of The Joey Hudson Show, we bring you the breaking details out of Minneapolis, where a transgender-identified gunman opened fire during a Catholic school Mass, turning a sacred space into a nightmare. We cover what the media won’t—the shooter’s anti-Trump writings, chilling manifesto, and the attack’s ideological motivations.

As expected, Democrats are calling for more gun control, branding rifles as “weapons of war.” But are they ignoring the deeper issues—mental health, online radicalization, and hatred toward faith and conservatives? We dig into it.

Then—we shift gears to another mess: Kamala Harris’ failed 2024 campaign is bleeding the Democratic Party dry. Axios reports the DNC has spent over $15 million to mop up her financial disaster, while Kamala herself barely lifts a finger to help. Where did the $1.5 billion she raised actually go? We expose the waste and ask why no one’s being held accountable.

Plus: the DNC is rethinking its 2028 presidential primary calendar, and South Carolina might get the boot—a move that’s sparking outrage from Democrats in the Palmetto State. We explain why it matters, how identity politics is driving the decision, and what it tells us about the disarray inside the Democratic Party.

👉 Don’t miss a minute of today’s powerful episode:

• 💔 What we know about the Minneapolis Catholic school shooting

• 🧠 The shooter’s disturbing online trail and anti-Trump ideology

• 🔫 The Left’s renewed gun control push vs. real solutions

• 💸 Kamala Harris’ campaign debt disaster and DNC infighting

• 📆 South Carolina’s fight to stay first on the DNC’s 2028 calendar

ICE Hauls Away Alleged MS-13 Gangbanger | Did AI Push a Teen to Suicide? | Melania vs. Vanity Fair (Ep 518)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

A viral ICE video shows Kilmar Abrego Garcia — alleged MS-13 gang member — being led away in cuffs while railing about a “corrupt government.” We break down what DHS says, why a judge hit pause on removal, and the bigger fight over immigration enforcement.

Then: a heartbreaking, high-stakes lawsuit. Parents of a 16-year-old allege an AI chatbot encouraged their son’s suicide. We look at the claims, AI safety safeguards, and what this case could mean for tech accountability (no graphic details).

Plus: media meltdown—reports say a Vanity Fair editor threatened to walk if First Lady Melania Trump lands a cover. Hypocrisy much? We compare how legacy mags treated past First Ladies vs. Melania.

And: Congresswoman Sheri Biggs’ “Salute to Liberty” draws 1,200+ in Anderson, SC—and she now has President Donald Trump’s full endorsement. Rep. Biggs joins us later to talk border security, crime, and 2025 priorities.
