The J.J. Carrell Show EP75 Everything That is Wrong with America in One Halftime Show

EXECUTIVE BRIEF: We Need a Leader! America sits at a crossroads right now, and the truth stares us square in the face. Weak men in high places have sold out our borders, our families, our faith, and our future for thirty pieces of silver and a pat on the back from globalist elites. Churches are full of nice guys who won’t say the hard things, politicians promise everything and deliver nothing, and too many fathers have checked out while the culture trains our boys to be soft and compliant. We don’t need another polished suit reading teleprompters. We need a man with steel in his spine, a Bible in his hand, and a willingness to call evil what it is. A leader who understands that freedom isn’t free, that righteousness exalts a nation, and that compromise with wickedness only invites more wickedness. The hour is late. Our enemies foreign and domestic smell blood. If American men don’t rise up, reclaim their God-given roles as protectors, providers, and priests of their households, then we hand the keys to the Marxists, the perverts, and the tyrants who hate everything we hold dear. God has always raised up men in dark times, Moses, Gideon, David. The question isn’t whether He can do it again. The question is whether enough of us will answer the call, get on our knees, then get off our knees and stand. We need a leader, yes, but that leader starts with you and me deciding today that silence is no longer an option.

EXECUTIVE BRIEF: Is It Too Late? Brothers and sisters, right now America feels like it’s finally rubbing the sleep from its eyes after years of being lulled into complacency. The veil is tearing, and more everyday people are seeing the raw evil that’s been operating in plain sight, from corrupted institutions pushing moral decay to shadowy forces undermining our families, our faith, and our freedoms. We’ve watched as progressive agendas have infiltrated schools, media, and even some churches, twisting truth into lies and celebrating what God calls abomination. But praise the Lord, a growing number of Americans, especially younger ones turning back to biblical foundations, are rejecting this darkness. They’re recognizing the spiritual battle raging around us, where good is called evil and evil good, just as Scripture warned. This awakening isn’t coming from politicians or pundits alone; it’s a grassroots stirring, a response to the blatant attacks on life, liberty, and the pursuit of godliness. We’ve seen the fruit of turning away from God: skyrocketing crime in cities, the assault on parental rights, the normalization of perversion, and leaders who mock Christian values while protecting the wicked. Yet in the midst of this, there’s real hope. People are hungry for truth again. They’re questioning the narrative they’ve been fed, seeking solid ground in God’s Word instead of the shifting sands of cultural relativism. Is it too late to turn this ship around? No, not while there’s breath in our lungs and the Holy Spirit moving. History shows revivals often come in the darkest hours, when God’s people humble themselves, pray, and repent. We’re not defeated yet; we’re being called to stand. The question isn’t whether evil is real, it’s whether we’ll answer the call to fight it with faith, courage, and uncompromised truth. America can still return to her Christian roots, but it starts with each of us refusing to stay silent or asleep any longer.

EXECUTIVE BRIEF: Is Justice Coming? Brothers and sisters in Christ, we’ve been watching this Epstein nightmare unfold for years, and now in early 2026 the Department of Justice has dumped millions more pages of documents, including fresh details that tie this monster directly to foreign intelligence operations. Recent releases show emails from 2011 where Epstein’s associates floated plans to chase billions in frozen Libyan assets, even name-dropping former MI6 and Mossad operatives ready to help recover what they called stolen funds. That’s no coincidence. Epstein wasn’t just some lone pervert running a trafficking ring on his private island. Evidence keeps pointing to him as a key player in a web that involved U.S. intelligence, the CIA, and Israel’s Mossad. Reports from credible investigations highlight how he brokered backchannel deals for Israel, hosted intelligence officers in his properties, and maintained close ties with figures like former Prime Minister Ehud Barak, who stayed at Epstein’s New York place multiple times. From an American conservative Christian viewpoint, this stinks of deep-state corruption that protects the powerful while sacrificing the innocent. Victims, many young girls exploited and abused, deserve real accountability, not more redactions or excuses about privacy for the elite. The so-called transparency act pushed through last year forced this release, yet thousands of pages got pulled back after victims complained about unredacted info exposing them further. Where’s the justice for those girls? We’ve seen names of politicians, billionaires, and foreign leaders pop up again and again, but real prosecutions remain scarce. If Epstein was indeed an asset for Mossad or the CIA, using blackmail to influence policy and protect certain interests, then we’re staring at a betrayal of our sovereignty and our moral foundation. As believers, we know truth eventually comes to light because God is not mocked. But we can’t sit idle while evil hides in high places. The question remains: is justice finally coming, or will the powerful once again skate free? Keep praying, stay vigilant, because our republic and our children’s future depend on exposing this darkness.

EXECUTIVE BRIEF: Are We Ready For God? Brothers and sisters, we stand at a crossroads that no politician, no policy, no election can fix alone. America is bleeding – from open borders that mock our sovereignty, from cultural rot that attacks the family and mocks biblical truth, from leaders who serve themselves instead of the people and the Almighty. We’ve seen the fruit of turning our backs on God: division, lawlessness, economic strain, moral confusion. Yet the real question isn’t just whether America can be saved. It’s whether we as individuals, as believers, as patriots are ready to stand before the Lord when He calls us to account. Only God can save America. History proves it. When nations repent and return to Him, He raises up deliverance. When they harden their hearts, judgment follows. Look around. The signs are clear. We’ve chased pleasure, power, and self over righteousness. We’ve allowed evil to flourish under the guise of tolerance. But God is not mocked. He is sovereign, merciful, and just. The question for each of us is simple and piercing: Are we ready for God? Have we truly surrendered our lives to Christ? Are we living in obedience, prayer, and readiness for whatever comes – be it revival or refining fire? This isn’t about fear. It’s about faithfulness. Preparedness isn’t just stocking shelves (though wisdom calls for that too). It’s about having our lamps trimmed, our hearts right, our trust firmly in the One who holds tomorrow. If America turns back to God, He can heal our land. If not, His will stands regardless. The time to prepare spiritually is now. Seek Him while He may be found. Repent. Pray without ceasing. Teach your children the truth. Stand firm in the faith. Because when the storms hit hardest, only those anchored in Christ will endure.

Why does the Left always side with the criminals? Have you ever asked that simple question? The Left, which encompasses the media and the Democrats with a sprinkle of gutless RINOs, are driving the narrative that ICE Officers and Border Patrol Agents are monsters and the poor migrants are the victims.

EXECUTIVE BRIEF: Look at What America Has Become We used to be a nation that feared God and honored the simple truths laid out in Scripture. Now look around. Our leaders celebrate every kind of depravity while mocking the faithful. Children are taught confusion in schools instead of righteousness. The innocent are slaughtered in the womb by the millions, and society calls it healthcare. Men dress as women, demand access to our daughters’ bathrooms, and the courts back them up. Drug overdoses kill more of our young people every year than wars used to, yet the border stays wide open so the poison keeps flowing. Churches water down the Gospel to fill seats, pastors chase relevance instead of holiness, and too many Christians sit silent while evil advances. This isn’t just politics. It’s spiritual rot. When a culture turns its back on the Creator, rejects His design for marriage, family, and life itself, judgment follows. Romans 1 spells it out plain: God gives people over to their vile passions when they refuse to honor Him. We’re living in that handover right now. The economy staggers under debt we never should have piled up, crime spikes in once-safe cities, and trust in institutions is gone because those institutions serve the lie instead of the truth. America isn’t just declining, brother, it’s being dismantled from within by people who hate what this country once stood for. The price is coming due, and it’s going to hurt every one of us who still love this land and the Lord who blessed it. Wake up before it’s too late.

EXECUTIVE BRIEF: Will We Ever Get That Inch Back? Look, we’re staring down the barrel of a national debt that’s blown past 38 trillion dollars, and the politicians in Washington act like it’s just another Tuesday. As of early 2026, the total gross debt sits around 38.5 to 38.6 trillion according to Treasury numbers and reports from the Joint Economic Committee, with interest payments alone eating up over a trillion a year soon enough. That’s money your kids and grandkids will be forced to cough up through higher taxes or slashed services, all while the government keeps spending like there’s no tomorrow. This didn’t happen overnight. Decades of reckless deficits from both parties, endless wars, bloated entitlements, and pork-barrel projects have piled up this mountain. Now interest costs are exploding, crowding out real priorities like border security, defense, and basic infrastructure. The debt-to-GDP ratio is north of 120 percent in places, and warnings from fiscal watchdogs say we’re on track for some kind of crisis if we don’t change course fast, maybe inflation spikes, higher rates crushing families, or worse. From a conservative Christian view, this is moral failure wrapped in fiscal insanity. Scripture calls us to be good stewards, not to burden future generations with debt we refuse to control. Proverbs warns about borrowing and sloth, yet here we are, letting bureaucrats and special interests run the tab. The question isn’t if we’ll pay, but how much pain comes with it. Will we ever claw back even an inch of sanity, or keep pretending the bill never comes due? Time’s short, and excuses are running thin.

EXECUTIVE BRIEF: Will We Ever Get That Inch Back? We all know the old saying twisted here for a reason: give a communist an inch and they take a mile, every single time. Look at history, brothers and sisters, from the Bolsheviks grabbing power after small concessions to the slow creep of socialism right here in our backyard. Today in 2026 we see the same pattern playing out again. Small policy wins for the left turn into massive overreach, whether it’s open borders letting in who knows what threats, or cultural pushes that erode our Christian foundations bit by bit. The pattern is clear. Start with “compassionate” immigration tweaks and end up with sanctuary cities shielding criminals while American communities suffer. Give ground on education and suddenly our kids get bombarded with ideologies that mock God and family. Yield on economic controls and watch freedom vanish under layers of regulations and wealth redistribution schemes. The Chinese Communist Party looms large too, infiltrating our agriculture, tech, and even pushing their electric vehicles to undercut our industries while their spies operate with impunity. We conservatives, rooted in biblical truth and love for this republic, have watched these incremental grabs for years. Each time we compromise thinking it’s just one small step, the other side pockets it and demands more. The question staring us in the face is whether we can claw any of that ground back before it’s gone for good. Scripture warns us about unequally yoked partnerships and standing firm against evil schemes. We’ve got to stop pretending dialogue with those who hate our way of life will fix anything. The communists don’t negotiate in good faith, they advance. Time to recognize the spiritual battle here and act like it matters eternally.

Does the state of Minnesota represent America and ground zero for the insane or is America still a nation of law and order? This is a huge question that needs an answer. The answer, which is difficult to truly ascertain, would give us the true direction of the country. Are we a nation of strong law and order or have we devolved into a nation ruled by chaos and emotions.
