Live from the Heart of America—I’m Steve Gruber—ready to fight for you from the Foxhole of Freedom—giving you better analysis and insight than anyone else—shining a spotlight into the darkness of the political/media industrial complex swamp—and delivering— the relentless pursuit of truth!
Here are the 3 Big Things you need to know to start today—
Number One— A synthetic human embryo has been created in a lab—without an egg or sperm—Wow! What could possibly go wrong with that?
Number Two— Adam Schiff is let off the hook by 20 Republicans—for lying year after year about Russian Collusion and the Steele Dossier and more—what a bunch of weasels—
Number Three— Newsflash—Steve Gruber is too liberal! Steve Gruber is a Rino!
I hear this kind of non-sense pretty much every day—if I don’t take the exact position demanded by some ideologues then I am branded as a Rino and as part of the problem—can you imagine that?
I am too liberal!
Well, if that’s true my friends we have some very serious problems in this country—because that means those of us on the right—and yes I still believe I am on the right because I am— but if I’m too liberal, we stand very little chance of ever winning another election at any level—
If I’m the problem we won’t elect a dog catcher if that continues to the be mindset of those on the hard right—
You see, I was canceled this week from a radio station I have been on for years—and it was because, I am too liberal.
That is what a couple of the listeners said they heard some clown say on the air— However this same clown happens to be the program director—so he made the very poor choice to silence me as we are heading into another critical election year—I have by far the biggest statewide network with over 30 affiliates and winning important races is critical—therefore having loud common sense voices is critical—but the thought police don’t care about that apparently—if you don’t adhere to their stringent orthodoxy—they will cancel you—just like any good little liberal would do!
So now you’re wondering, what were my thought crimes that got me cancelled by a guy who is often screaming about cancel culture and how terrible it is? And yes, that is the height of hypocrisy—but I digress.
Anyway—I recently railed against Michigan Republicans for wasting their time and mine by introducing a Constitutional Carry Bill—and IT IS a complete waste of time because Democrats control the House, Senate and Governor’s Mansion—this is an utterly futile effort and will go exactly nowhere—it is virtue signaling to the 2ndAmendment crowd and its pointless—
I also am not a fan of Constitutional Carry—because I think it’s fine for people to get trained to use guns properly—I was and I believe having a gun is an incredible responsibility—and extra training can never hurt—
I don’t openly oppose Constitutional Carry, I am just not a fan—and for that I got called an anti-gun guy—really? Me, anti gun—which of course is completely absurd—you would know that if you bothered to find out—
My next crime?
I suggested that Peter Meijer—a former one term Congressman who voted to impeach Donald Trump—might be about the only choice Republicans have to win the Senate seat being vacated by Debbie Stabenow—
Other than the completely foolish vote to impeach Trump—which I said at the time it was—and it didn’t get any better with time—besides that Meijer has a lot to offer—
First of all—his name—Meijer Supermarkets were started in Michigan—they are now in something like 20 states—so here—Peter Meijer is a name everybody knows to start with—
The Meijer name also comes with a pile of cash—and let’s be honest—being able to self-fund is a very important piece of the puzzle when you understand how much money these seats take—this could easily be a $10 million dollar race—
Meijer is also more centric—or if you wish—he might be a borderline Rino—which, like it or not gives him a better chance in a purple state to actually win a statewide race—and that’s better than the alternative—
The hard core conservative candidates got clobbered in Michigan in 2022—so if you want to put the far-left Democrat Elissa Slotkin out to pasture—you’d better find someone who can attract votes from the middle—
Meijer is also a veteran—and that is also a positive from where I stand—
I was also accused of not supporting the new Republican Chair in Michigan—Kristina Karamo—and that simply is not the case either—but when you’re dealing with cancel culture on the left or the right—facts simply do not matter—
I’ve said many times that the Michigan GOP is in tatters—you know why? Because it is—and I’ve also been clear that is not the new Chairs fault—BUT I am not sure she can fix the problem—party chairs have one job—raising money and that is going to be a daunting task—
So there is the list of my crimes—for that I have been called a Rino, a liberal, a Democrat, someone who is bought and paid for, someone who is being bullied by Democrats and cave in on these issues—
So how angry were the thought police? Well like I said, for supporting training and a background check before getting a concealed handgun—and pointing to someone who might actually be able to win a US Senate seat for the Republicans—and pointing out how damaged the GOP is in my state—I was banished from a small talk station in Northern Michigan—
Here is the problem with Rino’s by the way—You can’t win with them—because they are going to do some dumb things—BUT you can’t win without them because—again—like it or not you need those votes—
Democrats have always been the party of lockstep and do not get out of line—
Republicans have always been a party that has discussions—a party that has different ideas—and rarely a consensus—
So whether you like it or not—I am going to say things you don’t agree with sometimes—and that’s ok—you’re entitled to be wrong from time to time—BUT we cannot lower ourselves to acting like run of the mill Democrats—and the cancel culture warriors who despise free speech and open dialogue—
As I keep telling you—we need more free speech—more ideas—more conversations—NOT less—
If you think calling your fellow voters names and trying to silence them—you are part of the problem—and me personally I am working to win elections and be part of the solution that saves this great country—
If you don’t like that—well, I don’t care!
Now let’s talk about other items dividing us—
