In this episode, Jenny Beth Martin is joined by Myron Ebell of the Competitive Enterprise Institute to discuss the Trump administration’s decision to withdraw the EPA’s 2007 endangerment finding — the legal foundation that has allowed federal regulation of greenhouse gas emissions under the Clean Air Act.

The endangerment finding, issued after the Supreme Court’s ruling in Massachusetts v. EPA, opened the door for sweeping climate regulations affecting vehicles, power plants, manufacturing, and energy production across the country. Now, the administration is attempting to reverse that determination — a move that could significantly reshape energy policy, vehicle standards, and federal regulatory authority.

In this episode you'll learn:

• What the EPA’s endangerment finding is and why it matters
• How greenhouse gases became regulated under the Clean Air Act
• The connection between federal fuel economy rules and rising vehicle costs
• The impact of California’s EV mandate and the Clean Air Act waiver
• What the “major questions doctrine” means for climate regulation
• Why legal challenges are already underway — and what happens next
• How this decision could affect energy prices, economic growth, and consumer choice

Myron Ebell also shares his decades-long involvement in the climate and energy debate, from opposing the Kyoto Protocol to challenging cap-and-trade proposals and the Paris Climate Agreement. He explains the legal and economic arguments behind the rollback and outlines what to expect as the case moves through the federal courts.

This is a deep dive into the legal, economic, and constitutional fight over climate regulation — and what it means for America’s energy future.

The SAVE America Act has passed the U.S. House and now heads to the Senate — and with it has come a wave of misinformation, fear-based talking points, and outright falsehoods.

In this episode, Jenny Beth addresses the five biggest myths surrounding the SAVE America Act and explains what the legislation actually does.

The bill requires:
• Documentary proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote
• Photo ID to cast a ballot in federal elections

Opponents claim the bill is unnecessary, unconstitutional, discriminatory, or impossible to implement. In this episode, Jenny Beth breaks down those claims one by one and explains:

• Why existing federal law does not currently require documentary proof of citizenship
• Why voter ID is not a “modern-day poll tax”
• How the bill addresses name discrepancies for married women
• Why Congress has constitutional authority over federal election standards
• Why implementing citizenship verification is both practical and urgent

At its core, the question is simple: Should American elections be decided only by American citizens?

The SAVE America Act reinforces what most Americans already believe — that election integrity strengthens voter confidence and preserves our constitutional republic.

📞 Take Action:
Call your U.S. Senators and urge them to bring the SAVE America Act to the floor for debate and vote YES.

In this episode, Jenny Beth Martin sits down with Rachel Bovard, VP of Programs at the Conservative Partnership Institute, to break down the real procedural path for passing the SAVE America Act in the United States Senate.

This is the essential guide to passing the SAVE America Act in the Senate.

Rachel explains how the Senate’s existing rules — including the talking filibuster — can be used to force debate and potentially pass election integrity legislation without eliminating the legislative filibuster.

If you’ve heard claims that this strategy would “nuke” the filibuster or create procedural chaos, this conversation addresses those arguments directly and explains what the rules actually allow.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• The difference between invoking cloture (60 votes) and breaking a filibuster through exhaustion
• How the privileged motion to proceed allows the SAVE America Act to bypass an initial 60-vote hurdle
• What live quorum calls are — and why they matter
• Why the talking filibuster does not eliminate the filibuster
• How Senate Republicans could force Democrats to debate voter ID and proof of citizenship
• Why discipline and strategic voting are critical to the process
• How negotiation can emerge from extended floor debate
• Why this strategy could strengthen — not weaken — the Senate

Why This Matters

The SAVE America Act focuses on ensuring that only American citizens vote in American elections and that voters show identification before casting a ballot.

Poll after poll shows overwhelming public support for these principles. The question is not whether Americans support election integrity — it’s whether the Senate will use its own rules to allow real debate.

This episode gives you the strategy, the mechanics, and the political stakes surrounding the SAVE America Act — and what grassroots activists can do to encourage action.

In today’s episode, I’m joined by Hon. TW Shannon, former Speaker of the Oklahoma House of Representatives and candidate for Oklahoma Lieutenant Governor.

TW shares his personal story of growing up in a faith-filled family, becoming one of the most conservative Speakers in Oklahoma history, and serving as a senior advisor to President Trump. He explains why he believes the future of Oklahoma — and America — depends on three foundational principles: Christianity, capitalism, and the Constitution.

This conversation covers limited government, border security, tax reform, welfare reform, school choice, tribal sovereignty, economic growth, and the fight against DEI and woke policies.

Key Topics Discussed

• TW Shannon’s background and conservative values
• Serving in the Trump administration and advancing America First policies
• Why the Constitution protects rights granted by our Creator
• Equal opportunity vs. equal outcomes
• Reforming welfare with work requirements
• Cutting taxes and limiting government growth
• Expanding school choice and improving education accountability
• Ending DEI and affirmative action policies in Oklahoma
• Immigration enforcement and border security
• Working with Oklahoma’s 39 federally recognized tribes
• Promoting Oklahoma as a destination for business, tourism, and families

Why This Conversation Matters

Oklahoma is one of the most conservative states in the country, yet it still faces challenges — including government growth, education reform, and the strain of illegal immigration.

TW outlines how a constitutional conservative approach rooted in faith, free markets, and limited government can expand opportunity, strengthen families, and keep Oklahoma moving forward.

Episode Overview

In this episode of The Jenny Beth Show, Jenny Beth Martin sits down with Congressman Pete Stauber (MN-8) to discuss the massive fraud scandal unfolding in Minnesota — a scandal that could total anywhere from $9 billion to as much as $30 billion in alleged abuse of taxpayer funds.

From Medicaid fraud and SNAP benefit irregularities to daycare centers that never operated and feeding programs that allegedly didn’t serve the children they claimed, this investigation is raising serious concerns about oversight, accountability, and leadership at both the state and federal levels.

Congressman Stauber explains how whistleblowers inside Minnesota’s government first sounded the alarm, what role independent journalists played in exposing the scope of the fraud, and how Congress is working to restore integrity to public programs.

Topics Covered

• How Minnesota’s fraud scandal was first uncovered
• Whistleblower reports from state agencies
• Allegations involving Medicaid, SNAP, and childcare programs
• The “Feeding Our Future” controversy
• Claims of missing oversight and failed accountability measures
• TSA reports of large cash transfers leaving the state
• Congressional efforts to investigate and reform oversight systems
• Broader concerns about fraud in other states
• The role of independent journalists in exposing abuse
• The importance of restoring public trust in government programs

Why This Matters

Taxpayer dollars are intended to serve vulnerable Americans — including children, seniors, and families in need. When fraud is allowed to flourish, it undermines public trust, weakens critical services, and damages confidence in government institutions.

This episode examines what went wrong, who is being held accountable, and what reforms may be necessary to prevent similar failures in the future.

Securing the Border & Stopping China | Dr. Dawn Buckingham, Texas Land Commissioner

In this episode, Jenny Beth Martin sits down with Dr. Dawn Buckingham, Texas Land Commissioner, to discuss how Texas is using its constitutional authority, land management powers, and mineral resources to strengthen border security, protect American sovereignty, and fund public education.

Dr. Buckingham oversees 13 million acres of Texas public land and the mineral rights that support the Permanent School Fund — one of the largest sovereign wealth funds in the United States. She explains how oil, gas, and rare earth mineral development on Texas land help finance schools, veterans programs, and disaster recovery efforts without raising taxes.

The conversation also explores Texas’ aggressive action to secure the southern border during the Biden administration, including:

• Declaring disputed islands in the Rio Grande as Texas territory to eliminate cartel safe havens
• Purchasing strategic border property to accelerate border wall construction
• Enhancing surveillance to detect cartel tunnels
• Supporting Border Patrol and maintaining operational control of state lands

Dr. Buckingham also details how Texas intervened to prevent Chinese nationals from acquiring strategic land near critical infrastructure and military bases, protecting the state’s energy grid and national security.

In addition, she shares updates on the historic preservation and transformation of the Alamo — including the creation of a world-class museum, education center, and restoration efforts designed to protect the Shrine of Texas Liberty for future generations.

Topics Covered:

• Border security and cartel enforcement efforts
• Rare earth minerals and reducing reliance on China
• Oil and gas production on Texas public lands
• Protecting strategic land from foreign adversaries
• The Permanent School Fund and funding public education
• Veterans homes, cemeteries, and land programs
• Disaster recovery and flood mitigation
• The Alamo restoration project
• Leadership principles for elected officials

Texas has long stood at the center of the fight for sovereignty, energy independence, and constitutional governance. In this conversation, Dr. Buckingham explains why what happens in Texas doesn’t just impact Texans — it shapes the future of the entire country.
