But that doesn't stop Democrats.

A lively discussion, so good in fact, that David returns on Wednesday to wrap up his legitimate concerns.

Today on Armed American Radio Daily Defense, a criminal border crosser illegal alien living in America for far longer than he should have been allowed, petitioned an Ohio court for his gun possession charges to be dropped. Judge rules no...case can proceed. Illegal aliens have no 2A rights. Pretty simple really. The case, USA vs. Carlos Restrepo will proceed to trial in January of 2025. Should illegal criminal invaders who lie on ATF Form 4473 be able to petition the court for 2A rights? Hell no. We live in crazy world but that's about to change with the incoming Trump administration, we do believe!

The meltdown of the left as a result and indications that these legacy media outlets are gradually acknowledging their own self-inflicted demise were also discussed. The LA Times owner’s decision to fire the entire editorial board and its subsequent shift towards actual objective news reporting, while distancing itself from opinion pieces masquerading as news, was mentioned. This move may draw inspiration from Jeff Bezos’ approach at the Washington Post.

None are top picks for Mark or David, and together we break down the good, the bad, and the ugly of each of the three. The legacy media failures were also discussed in detail and how the breakdown of failed media will impact the Trump administration. Will the media be relevant moving into the future post-election after so many lies and bias were obvious? Will media ever be trusted again on any level by voters? The consensus on AAR is NO.
