The J.J. Carrell Show – EP68 If You Give a Communist an Inch…
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.

BORDER TRUTH – Does Minnesota Represent America?
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.

The J.J. Carrell Show – EP67 America Has a Mental Illness Crisis
EXECUTIVE BRIEF: Calling This a Crisis… Look, we’ve got a full-blown mental illness epidemic tearing through this country, and pretending it’s just stress or modern life won’t cut it anymore. Recent numbers show over 60 million adults dealing with some form of mental illness each year, that’s roughly one in four people walking around with anxiety, depression, or worse. Youth are hit especially hard, with major depressive episodes still affecting a big chunk of kids 12 to 17, even if some stats dipped a little lately. Suicide thoughts haunt millions, attempts climb, and overdoses keep claiming lives like it’s nothing. From a conservative Christian standpoint, this didn’t happen overnight. We’ve kicked God out of schools, homes, and public life for decades, replaced absolute truth with feelings and relativism, and now we’re shocked when people feel lost and hopeless. Social media feeds endless comparison and despair, families are fractured by divorce and absent fathers, chemicals in food and water mess with brains, and big pharma pushes pills that mask symptoms without fixing root causes. The left wants to blame guns or climate or capitalism, but the real culprit is a godless culture that tells people they’re accidents in a meaningless universe. Without Christ at the center, no wonder minds unravel. We’ve turned from biblical wisdom, personal responsibility, and strong communities built on faith, and the fallout is this crisis. It’s not just medical, it’s spiritual warfare playing out in real time. We need to call it what it is, a rejection of God’s design leading to widespread brokenness.
