Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

Things are heating up over Greenland… Local Danish broadcaster TV 2 said the Danish Armed Forces confirmed a new contingent of troops, described as "a substantial contribution," were headed to  Greenland’s main international airport Monday night…. with tensions escalating with President Donald Trump over control of the region.

Fired CNN host Don Lemon suggested some of the outrage after he followed a group of anti-ICE agitators who stormed into a St. Paul church came from "religious groups" who feel "entitled" due to …you ready for this….White supremacy….yes, Donnie is now playing the race card on his role in disrupting a church service on Sunday.

Only one out of nearly 20 Democrats who may run for president would say definitively that a man cannot become a woman, according to a new report from Axios.

SC GOP Chairman Drew McKissick joins to further clarify what is in the two competing bills the SC General Assembly is considering that would close political primaries in the state.

“Invasion?” Minneapolis Mayor, Ilhan Omar Escalate Rhetoric as ICE Crackdown Continues (Ep 639)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

What’s happening in Minneapolis right now is a warning sign for the rest of the country.

Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey is calling federal immigration enforcement an “invasion,” while Rep. Ilhan Omar compares ICE operations to conditions in Somalia — rhetoric that critics say is inflaming tensions instead of restoring order.

At the same time, federal agents are in Minnesota responding to massive fraud investigations and years of limited cooperation from local officials — raising serious questions about leadership, public safety, and the rule of law.

In today’s show:
• Why Minneapolis leaders are escalating language instead of de-escalating chaos
• The difference between federal enforcement and political theater
• How sanctuary policies push enforcement into the streets
• What this standoff means for law enforcement and public safety
• Updates from the South Carolina Statehouse, including closed primaries and DUI reform

🎧 Plus:
South Carolina Rep. Mike Burns joins us with an update on the growing battle over closing primaries, and Senate President Thomas Alexander outlines what to expect as the SC General Assembly kicks off the new session.

WEEKEND: SC Primaries| Open or Closed? | Evans Training Center Making a Difference(Ep 638)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

In today’s episode, we cover two powerful conversations shaping lives — and shaping South Carolina’s future.

First, I’m joined by Dave Crooks, Executive Director of Evans Training Center, a Christ-centered, long-term residential recovery ministry right here in the Upstate.

Evans Training Center operates a 40-week regeneration program for men battling addiction, built around biblical discipleship, accountability, community, and vocational training — all rooted in the hope and freedom found in Jesus Christ.

Dave shares his personal journey through addiction and redemption, and how that lived experience shapes his leadership today. We talk about:

• Why Evans focuses on regeneration, not just recovery

• What a typical day looks like for men in the program

• How faith plays a central role in lasting transformation

• Vocational training through Evans Industries and real-world job skills

• How families are restored and men step into purpose after graduation

• How churches, businesses, and the community can get involved

Then, we shift gears to South Carolina politics with Mike Burns, a Republican lawmaker from Tigerville and sponsor of legislation that would close South Carolina’s party primaries.

We break down:

• Why South Carolina’s open primary system is under scrutiny

• The difference between H.3310 and H.3643

• Whether independents are being shut out — or party integrity is being protected

• Why Republicans should choose Republican nominees

• What success looks like 5–10 years down the road

This episode is about restoration and responsibility — restoring lives through faith and discipleship, and restoring integrity to the political process.

Whether you’re concerned about addiction recovery, faith-based solutions, election integrity, or the future of South Carolina — this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.

Leavitt TORCHES Reporter Over Renee Good — “You’re a Left-Wing Activist!” (Must Listen) (Ep 637)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

 White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt had a fiery clash with a journalist during Thursday's press briefing, labeling him a "left-wing activist" over an exchange the two of them had over the killing of Renee Good. …I promise…you want to hear this!!!

A federal appeals court ruled Thursday that a lower court judge lacked authority in ordering the release of anti-Israel activist Mahmoud Khalil, siding with the Trump administration in a closely watched immigration case.

 

A state Senate panel advanced a proposal expanding a law originally passed to keep Confederate monuments in place.The bill introduced by Sen. Danny Verdin, R-Laurens, and co-sponsored by 29 other Republicans would extend the protections under a portion of state law, commonly called the Heritage Act, to all memorials on public property in South Carolina.

Lt Governor Pamela Evette joins us to respond to the continued attacks on ICE and the Trump administration’s efforts to enforce our immigration laws….

Senate Flip-Flop Saves Trump War Powers — And the “Men Get Pregnant?” Moment Goes Viral (Ep 636)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

Senate Republicans just shut down a bipartisan effort to curb President Trump’s war powers authority — after key GOP senators reversed course and leadership used a rare Senate procedure to effectively nullify the resolution. One week the vote had momentum… the next week it’s buried. That’s Washington.

Plus, a viral moment from a Senate abortion hearing: Sen. Josh Hawley asked a simple question — “Can men get pregnant?” — and the witness repeatedly avoided giving a direct answer. If policymakers can’t acknowledge basic biology, what does that mean for women’s health, medical truth, and public trust?

And in Minnesota, another clip is exploding online: federal law enforcement agents were heckled, cursed at, and pressured to leave a Mexican restaurant in St. Paul. Protest is one thing — public intimidation is another.

“Which Is It, Tim?” Walz Flip-Flop Sparks Backlash as Minnesota Tensions Rise (Ep 635)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

Minnesota politics is looking like pure whiplash. Gov. Tim Walz is getting hammered after praising the state’s top fraud prosecutor on the way out… just a week after he suggested that same prosecutor should be fired. Meanwhile, anti-ICE agitators are back on video blocking roads with vehicles—even after last week’s deadly incident involving Renee Nicole Good.

Plus: President Trump is openly warning Tehran as Iran’s regime crackdown turns more brutal, and the U.S. Supreme Court hears a major case on transgender athletes in girls’ sports—and even with a conservative court, it’s not a guaranteed win for women’s sports.

Trump: ‘We’re Screwed’ If SCOTUS Kills Tariffs | Violence Erupts in Minneapolis (Ep 634)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

President Trump is sounding the alarm as the U.S. Supreme Court prepares to rule — possibly as early as this week — on whether his emergency tariff authority is constitutional. Trump warns that if the Court rules against the administration, the U.S. could be forced to repay hundreds of billions of dollars, triggering economic chaos and unraveling key trade leverage.

In today’s show, we break down what’s at stake in the looming Supreme Court decision, how tariff revenue factors into Trump’s economic strategy, and why even some Republicans are raising concerns about inflation and refunds if the tariffs are struck down.

We also cover a growing legal and political feud after Senator Mark Kelly sues the Department of Defense and War Secretary Pete Hegseth over disciplinary action tied to Kelly’s public call for service members to refuse “illegal orders.”

Meanwhile, chaos continues in Minneapolis. Conservative journalist Nick Sortor says his vehicle was surrounded by anti-ICE protesters, windows smashed, and his escape blocked as tensions boil over in the city following recent immigration enforcement actions.

Plus — South Carolina lawmakers return to Columbia this week. State Rep. John McCravy joins us with a preview of legislative priorities, infrastructure reform, budget pressures, growth management, and what Republicans are focusing on heading into an election-year session.

This episode covers:
• Supreme Court tariff ruling and economic fallout
• Trump’s warning on repayment and inflation
• Sen. Mark Kelly vs. the Pentagon
• Protest violence and media double standards in Minneapolis
• South Carolina legislative priorities for 2026

DHS Releases Chilling Video: What Really Happened Before the ICE Shooting? (Ep 633)

Just the Truth Podcast with Joey Hudson

New video released by the Department of Homeland Security is changing the conversation surrounding the fatal ICE shooting in Minneapolis — and raising serious questions about what led up to the confrontation.

In today’s show, we break down newly released DHS footage showing Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents being stalked, blocked, and disrupted for several minutes before the deadly encounter involving Renee Nicole Good. The video contradicts early media narratives and sheds new light on the escalating tensions surrounding federal immigration enforcement in Minnesota.

We also examine how the Trump administration is pushing back against legacy media coverage, announcing the arrest of hundreds of violent criminal illegal aliens in what officials call the largest immigration enforcement operation ever conducted in Minneapolis. ICE confirms those arrested include individuals convicted of murder, rape, sodomy, and crimes against children.

Plus — we turn overseas to Iran, where human rights organizations warn more than 500 people have been slaughtered by the regime amid a nationwide anti-government uprising. Former military leaders are calling the crackdown a state-sponsored massacre as arrests and executions accelerate.

This episode looks at:
• New DHS video evidence from Minneapolis
• ICE enforcement escalation and violent criminal arrests
• Media credibility and narrative shaping
• Federal vs. local authority on immigration
• Iran’s brutal crackdown on protesters
