Barry looks at the serious issues plaguing the country and the Garden State. We bring on New Jersey Assemblyman Michael Inganamort to figure out why the state is bleeding residents and crushing young people. Barry presses the Assemblyman on the ridiculous reality that the average age of a first-time homebuyer in NJ is 45 years old. The two rip into the Democrats' $60.7 billion budget that got rammed through Trenton with zero time for review, the massive property taxes driving people out, and why trade schools offer a much better path for students than top-down mandates.
The conversation heats up when Barry and Michael get into the Department of Homeland Security identifying 5,000 non-citizens registered to vote in New Jersey. Michael explains why this feels like a layup for the state to fix, though the Democrats seem busy using taxpayer dollars to fight deportations instead. We also talk about the upcoming midterms, why Justin Murphy needs a massive push against Cory Booker, and how a common-sense conservative agenda is the only way to stop the creep of democratic socialism.
To close out the show, Barry takes the mic for a fiery monologue calling out the left's constant claims that minorities are unable to figure out how to get a voter ID, labeling the entire argument as garbage. We look at the absurdity of protesters waving flags for Middle Eastern countries that would immediately throw them in jail, and why similarities and shared values hold nations together better than endless division. Barry wraps up with some strong opinions on H1-B visas, a moving story about an 80-year-old Vietnam veteran dealing with Agent Orange, and a heartfelt message to spend time with your mom while you still can.
