America First: Monroe Doctrine, Olympic Gold, and Bold Patriotism

Stay connected with us at americangroundradio.com, on Facebook, and Instagram.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Stephen Parr and Louis R. Avallone. This is the full show for February 23, 2026.

We start with the federal judge blocking Special Counsel Jack Smith’s report on President Donald Trump. What does the ruling actually say about due process, prosecutorial power, and the limits of special counsels?

Plus, the American Mamas join us as we celebrate Olympic hockey gold and the pride that comes with seeing Team USA stand on top of the podium. Moments like this matter so much culturally — and the patriotism is palpable.

Then we zoom out: Trump’s rising popularity and what it says about where the country is headed — including renewed conversation around the Monroe Doctrine and putting America’s interests first.

And we Dig Deep into the perception gap around marijuana. As legalization expands and the left pushes it as a safe alternative to alcohol, what are we learning about its real effects — particularly when it comes to mental health?

Courtrooms. Foreign policy. Gold medals. Cultural shifts.
It’s all about America — and where we’re headed next.

May your pursuit of happiness bring you joy!
