September 9 – Culture of Crime, Biden’s Pardons, Zohran’s Homestretch & Senate Showdown

On today’s 10 Minute Drill:

-Culture of Crime: North Carolina rocked by the Irina Zarutska tragedy and the shocking case of Decarlos Brown, a repeat offender released 14 times. Meanwhile, Biden’s mass pardons—signed by autopen just days before leaving office—are raising new alarms after violent criminals slipped through without proper vetting.

-Zohran Mamdani’s Homestretch: From his defense of taxing New York’s top earners to a brutal grocery store interview, Zohran faces mounting pressure in the final stretch.

-Democrats & Your Electric Bills: Why Senate Democrats think they can spin rising utility costs into a political win—and why voters aren’t buying it.

-Independent Climate Report: Stanford’s Steven Koonin delivers findings the Left doesn’t want debated: no significant long-term U.S. trends in extreme weather, benefits of CO₂ for agriculture, and warnings about costly “climate emergency” policies. Senate Blockade: John Thune signals a rules change as Democrats continue their unprecedented blockade of Biden’s nominees—leaving critical posts, including U.N. Ambassador, unfilled. 

-Justice Barrett Speaks: A rare interview exposes CBS bias and highlights the growing tension between media and the Court.

Plus: Trump spotted at the U.S. Open signing hats, and the NFL’s big return.

Listen now for your daily breakdown of politics, media spin, and culture in just 10 minutes.
