@AndyFavor1 @DombroskiMike @David_LaTorre @Zigmanfreud @ScottPaterno Someday, God willing, there will be a formal “commission” established to fully evaluate the Penn State scandal - from beginning to end - with facts and objectivity. Until then, we have Graham Spanier’s In The Lions’ Den and Ziegler’s intrepid reporting.

I finally listened. Dr. Spanier, Gary Shultz and Tim Curly and Jerry Sandusky should be outraged that @ScottPaterno and @David_LaTorre are out there spewing misinformation. Sue should be at her lawyers office writing Scott out of the will. I just don’t get why there is not outrage against Scott and David. False sex abuse claims are not cute or noble. They destroy innocent lives and by pushing a con, Scott and David have forever tarnished the legacy of the great Joe Paterno. @JayPaterno @MaribethSchmidt @psufootball47 @psutruthville

@David_LaTorre listened to the whole thing. I see that @Zigmanfreud is the loon out in California. That loon does interviews with Bob Costas about the case! He also does interviews with Franco Harris, Graham Spanier, NCIS agent John Snedden (did an investigation of Spanier to renew his top secret security clearance), acquaintances of Sandusky accusers, wives of Sandusky accusers, all kinds of Penn State officials, Second Mile members and tons of other podcasters and talk show hosts. At an hour and ten minutes into episode three of his With the Benefit of Hindsight podcast series you can actually hear Ziegler and Scott arguing in a mistakenly recorded phone conversation: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/epi…

Thank you Kelley! A great moment for TFL! 🎉

This kid is gonna be a massive success at whatever he does in life!

@RealJamesWoods I really wish he would run for governor of PA. He’s the best we could hope for.

Is he some angel sent here in disguise?

Wishing all of our student-athletes, volunteers, supporters, and their families a bright holiday season and an energizing start to 2026. Thank you for showing up for each other. Here’s to more connection, growth, and good moments in the year ahead. ✨💙 #WeAre #TeammatesForLife

@RealCGriff The personification of “meeting the moment.”

Whatever happens next for this program. Whoever our head coach is. Wherever Terry Smith goes from here. I will always remember what he did to salvage this 2025 Penn State season. He brought energy and life to a team that was done in October. We should all be grateful for him.

@boblongsports Watching from Amelia Island, FL - thank you for such a GREAT broadcast! Go Explorers!

@RedWave_Press Megyn’s uncharacteristically incurious on this topic. She’s quite capable of (even known for) separating the wheat from the chaff.

Ben Shapiro to Megyn Kelly: “This is why, you know, I think you and I differ on our angle with regard to, for example, Candace Owens. I think that what Candace Owens is doing right now is evil. It is evil what she is doing right now, OK? And I say that, again—” Megyn Kelly: “I didn’t opine on whether it’s evil or not. But my position is: it’s really none of my business and—” Ben Shapiro: “Why is it-, but I have a question: why is it none of your business? I mean, you comment on these things for a living.” Megyn Kelly: “I’m not mother of the internet.” Ben Shapiro: “No, but if this were on the left and somebody were accusing Charlie Kirk of his wife having mu*dered him, I assume that you would be talking about it.”

@ScottPresler Shouldn’t only be up to you. What pathetic support from the GOP - up and down the ballot, in every race in every community. Disgraceful.

Thank you, Vice President Vance. I can say without hesitation & with resolve that I did everything within my power to positively impact the elections yesterday. Regroup. Strategize. Prepare for 2026.

TFL in the Big Apple!🍎Many supporters of #PSU Women’s Athletics were out in full force. We heard from alumni athlete Lauren Miller McHale and head coaches Kayla Treanor, Sarah Browne, Kristen Simpson & Carolyn Kieger. Hit us back if you’d like to host a TFL event in your city!🏙️

@Alex_Witkoff @naomirwolf He is absolutely one of the brightest stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️ of this administration! We are so lucky to have your dad representing and WINNING for the USA. Thank you for sharing him with us!

I am so proud of my father, Steve Witkoff, and Jared Kushner for their roles in this historic peace deal — securing the release of 20 hostages today after more than two years in captivity. My father is the most compassionate and incredible person I know. Over the past year, he has crisscrossed the world, comforting and fighting for the hostage families — growing to love them as his own. Guided by the memory of my late brother Andrew, who left this world far too soon, he’s been driven to ensure that as few families as possible ever endure such unimaginable loss. This moment also reflects the phenomenal leadership of President Donald J. Trump — whose doctrine of peace through strength continues to deliver results.

@bungarsargon @NewsNation Congrats on your first show! Watched and loved every minute!

So excited for the first episode of my new show @NewsNation! I hope you’ll join us—we have some amazing guests lined up. There will be high quality debate, as well as an editorial from me on what we learned about America this week. Tune in to “Batya!” SATURDAY at 4PM & 11PM EST

@mitchellvii This is exactly what Trump should have said today instead of calling him a no talent with poor ratings.

Let's be very clear. Jimmy Kimmel was not canceled because he criticized Charlie Kirk. We already knew he didn't like Charlie Kirk. He wasn't even canceled because he applauded Charlie Kirk's assassination. He was canceled because he lied and said that Charlie Kirk's shooter was MAGA and that the MAGA movement was trying to cover it up. This was a massive defamation suit waiting to happen and ABC was trying to cut it off at the pass. Add to that the fact they probably were looking for an excuse to get out of Kimmel's contract anyway and you see what's really happening here.

@KeenanPeachy @TPUSA Brilliant idea.

All the Charlie Kirk videos responding to questions should be clipped, categorized by topic, made searchable and the database made available on the @TPUSA website and also in an app for students. He left an incredible encyclopedia of how to deal with the left and how to address all our various social and cultural issues. I personally would like this to help make better arguments. I wonder if @DataRepublican could help.

@nicksortor Harangue is such a perfect description!!

🚨 RFK JR just WENT OFF on Dem Sen. Tina Smith for her lies SMITH: You blamed the Annunciation School Shooting on anti-depressants RFK: "You're MAKING STUFF UP! You don't want to talk, you want to harangue and have partisan politics. I want to actually SOLVE these problems!"

@JillianMichaels I feel like you read my mind. Perfectly stated. Thank you.

You’re absolutely right that vaccines have saved millions of lives and represent one of the greatest achievements in modern medicine. That fact should never be dismissed or minimized. At the same time, I wonder why it’s so hard to hold both ideas in our heads at once—that vaccines have done immense good and that it’s not unreasonable to scrutinize aspects of how they’re administered today. For example, why can’t we have a real conversation about the necessity of a Hepatitis B shot at birth for a healthy newborn? Or about whether the CDC schedule, which has grown more aggressive over the years, might deserve re-evaluation? Or about the safety of adjuvants like aluminum when injected into infants with developing immune systems? It also seems fair to point out that most pre-licensing trials don’t use truly inert placebo controls, and very few track long-term safety outcomes. That’s not conspiracy—it’s just acknowledging a limitation in the data. So the question I keep coming back to is: if we can recognize the undeniable success of vaccines historically, why is it treated as dangerous or taboo to raise legitimate questions about how we use them today? Why does skepticism around specific policies or practices get conflated with being “anti-vaccine,” when in reality it’s about making sure the science is as strong and transparent as possible?

@matt_vanswol .@MegynKellyShow is my daily go-to first and foremost. I supplement with @PBDsPodcast - really love @patrickbetdavid! Just added @bennyjohnson. Then, @joerogan and @TuckerCarlson only when I see particular guests that are of interest.

I am searching for a conservative podcast I can listen to on my commute each morning. Does anyone have recommendations of who I should listen to, or perhaps more importantly… …who I definitely should not listen to?

@matt_vanswol The pink hat march.

Out of curiosity… What was the moment that you personally began to see liberals go off the deep end?

@joeroganhq .@patrickbetdavid and @MegynKellyShow 💯 Still warming up to @VinceCoglianese …

Apart from Joe Rogan, which other podcaster or show host do you think people should be watching?

@ScottJenningsKY Be safe. You are a national treasure!

Quick update: not much has happened since my last updates. Skies are quiet & we are waiting to see if Iranian drones actually reach Israel. Don't think I am getting out of Israel today! But will continue to report on what I see and hear.
