American Ground Radio

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for September 12, 2025.

0:30 We discuss the man suspected of assassinating Charlie Kirk and the heart-wrenching situation that his father must have been in when he decided to turn in his son.

Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know.

• Police arrested a 22-year-old man in Utah for the murder of Charlie Kirk. Tyler Robinson was apparently turned in by a family member who said he had confessed to the murder.
• The wife of former Senator Bob Menendez has been sentenced to four years in jail. The former Democrat Senator from New Jersey was convicted of bribery.
• Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said he would shut down the government by the end of the month if Republicans don't give into Democrat demands on healthcare.

13:30 We dive into Washington D.C.’s long-standing crime problems—from the Marion Barry scandals to decades of political inaction and how President Trump's controversial decision to deploy the National Guard is changing things. We ask American Mamas Teri Netteriville if there is any political figure she's been impressed with for how they've reacted to Charlie Kirk's assassination. Teri points to Utah Governor Spencer Cox's measured, compassionate response.

23:00 We react to Nancy Pelosi's comments following the assassination of conservative leader Charlie Kirk. Have years of heated political rhetoric—from labeling Trump supporters as "fascists" to incidents like Maxine Waters' calls for assault and Kathy Griffin's infamous stunt—normalized hostility toward conservatives?

And we Dig Deep into where President Trump is considering deploying the National Guard next. Memphis, New Orleans, St. Louis, and Portland have been suggested due to their crime rates and possible ties to Antifa, but where would Trump's strategies to reduce crime see the most success?

33:30 If someone publicly celebrates Charlie Kirk’s assassination online, should that cost them their job? We discuss the balance between free speech and workplace responsibility.

Plus, it's Fake New Friday.

40:30 A Cincinnati sports arena has now banned a food vendor who made social media posts celebrating that conservative activist Charlie Kirk was assassinated. Is this more cancel culture? Or is this about more?

And we finish off with some words of wisdom about empathy that will make you say, "Whoa."
