    The Uniparty Exposed: Why Both Democrats & Republicans Have Record Low Approval Ratings | WTP #153

    Sal Assante delivers a no-holds-barred breakdown of America’s broken political system. Both major parties are stuck with dangerously low approval ratings, and the reason is clear: the Uniparty. Whether it’s endless wars, a failing healthcare system tied to employment, or burying the Epstein files, both sides protect the same elite interests while ignoring the American people. With 45% of voters now identifying as independents, the public is waking up to the media demonization tactics and the illusion of choice between red and blue. Sal explores why trust in both parties is collapsing and what real political reform could look like. 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wethepatriots/videosFollow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Intro00:45 The State of Political Approval Ratings02:03 The Uniparty Concept and Its Implications04:47 Voter Sentiment and Party Policies07:33 Healthcare and Political Accountability10:24 The Need for New Political Solutions

    SPLC Indicted, Another Assassination Attempt & The American Empire's Decline | WTP #152

    Salvatore Assante delivers a hard-hitting solo breakdown of the biggest threats facing America right now. The Southern Poverty Law Center faces major indictment, with explosive claims that the organization has been propping up groups like the KKK for fundraising and influence. Meanwhile, the government pushes deeper economic interventions like the Spirit Airlines buyout, endless foreign wars rack up over $150 billion in Iran alone, and insider trading by politicians continues unchecked. Sal connects the dots: systemic corruption, two sets of rules for elites vs. citizens, rising assassination attempts, and the dangerous slide toward autocracy — all signaling the decline of the American empire. 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wethepatriotsFollow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Intro00:45 The State of Our Government: A Warning Sign06:42 Southern Poverty Law Center Indictment: A Deeper Look09:42 Government Intervention in Economics: The Spirit Airlines Buyout10:10 The Forever Wars: A Financial Burden16:11 The Rise of Autocracy: Lessons from History17:07 Assassination Attempts: A Disturbing Trend19:15 Two Sets of Rules: The Divide Between Leaders and Citizens24:05 Finding a Way Forward: The Path to Reform

    Entangling Alliances: The Hidden Cost of US Foreign Policy & Middle East Wars | WTP #151

    Salvatore Assante delivers a hard-hitting solo discussion on the dangerous history of U.S. foreign entanglements and their impact on American stability. From the Six Day War and Operation Cyclone to post-9/11 interventions, Libya, and the complex U.S.-Saudi and U.S.-Israel alliances, Sal examines how “wars of choice” and strategies like the Clean Break plan have drained resources, inflated energy prices, and pulled America into endless conflicts. He highlights the oil embargo that quadrupled energy costs, the double-edged nature of support for Israel, and why foreign alliances often come at a steep price for domestic priorities. Sal argues it’s time to reevaluate U.S. strategy, move away from overseas entanglements, and put America First by focusing on national stability over global policing. 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wethepatriotsFollow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Intro01:04 - Historical Alliances and Their Consequences04:12 - The Fallout of Post-9/11 Alliances06:32 - The Libya Intervention: A Case Study07:46 - The Complex US-Saudi Relationship09:29 - The Israel Alliance: A Double-Edged Sword15:52 - The Clean Break Strategy and Its Implications19:50 - The Cost of Foreign Entanglements22:47 - Domestic Issues vs. Foreign Entanglements

    4D Chess or Complete Embarrassment? | WTP #150

    Sal Assante delivers a sharp, no-holds-barred analysis of the controversial Iran ceasefire and its secret 10-point plan. Was Trump playing high-level “4D chess,” or did the U.S. just hand Iran a strategic victory? The episode breaks down the deal’s key points — uranium enrichment limits, sanctions relief, reparations, and asset releases — while exposing the critical blunder over the Strait of Hormuz. Iran now effectively controls one of the world’s most vital shipping lanes and is turning it into a profitable toll road. Sal examines U.S. military withdrawal signals, the failure to achieve core objectives, and the broader damage to American credibility in the Middle East. He also explores competing theories: Is this a clever exit strategy, an attempt to weaken the U.S.-Israel alliance, or simply another foreign policy disaster? With risks of renewed escalation in Lebanon and beyond, Sal warns of prolonged turmoil, economic fallout, and the dangers of endless wars of choice. 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Watch on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@wethepatriots/videosFollow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Intro00:33 – Trump: 4D Chess or Blunder?01:04 – The Secret 10-Point Ceasefire Plan02:01 – Strait of Hormuz Control & Shipping Implications03:02 – Reparations, Sanctions Relief & US Failures06:44 – “4D Chess” Theory vs. Strategic Exit09:10 – Future Risks: Lebanon, Escalation & US Credibility15:50 – Closing Thoughts & Advice for Patriots

    Iran War Economics: Oil Shock, Food Prices & US Ground Troops Looming | WTP #149

    The Middle East conflict escalates fast—and Americans are already paying the price at the pump and the grocery store. Sal Assante breaks down the latest strikes on Iran, potential closure of the Strait of Hormuz, and how this war is driving oil prices higher while pushing fertilizer and food costs through the roof. With inflation already squeezing working families, Sal examines the risk of U.S. ground troops, rising civilian casualties, and the troubling shift in American wartime standards that once avoided hitting civilian infrastructure. From Trump’s negotiation comments to domestic backlash, supply chain chaos, and long-term regime change risks, this episode connects the dots between foreign policy failures and your wallet. “We’re heading toward rationing and prolonged pain”—is this the cost of endless Middle East wars? 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wethepatriotsFollow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Intro00:44 - Iran's current state and recent military actions03:10 - Analysis of the Strait of Hormuz and economic impacts04:35 - Domestic inflation, rising fuel & fertilizer prices08:24 - Civilian casualties and implications for international law10:55 - Inflation trends and American economic struggles13:44 - Civilian targeting and war ethics14:12 - U.S. military's role and civilian casualties15:34 - Shift away from avoiding civilian harm and strategic consequences16:33 - Degradation of U.S. wartime standards and implications21:54 - Closing remarks and hopes for better news

    Robot Umpires Invade MLB: ABS Challenge System Debuts | WTP #148

    Baseball is back—and the game just got automated. Sal Assante breaks down MLB's controversial new Assisted Ball-Strike (ABS) Challenge System (powered by T-Mobile), which debuted on Opening Day 2026. Players can now challenge umpire ball/strike calls with real-time tech verification, giving teams limited challenges that carry over if successful. Is this a win for accuracy and strategy, or the beginning of the end for traditional umpiring and the human element? Sal explores umpire reactions, job impacts, upcoming CBA negotiations, salary issues, and how automation could reshape America's pastime. He also delivers a quick geopolitical update on the ongoing Iran conflict, including recent US-Israel strikes, troop movements, and escalating tensions. Sports meets world events in classic We The Patriots fashion. 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wethepatriotsFollow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Intro01:30 - Major changes in baseball: the Assisted Ball Strike System06:12 - Umpire reactions and adjustments15:11 - Upcoming CBA negotiations and automation20:21 - Iran tensions and troop movements

    Trump's Promises vs. Reality | WTP #147

    Sal Assante delivers a no-holds-barred interview-style deep dive into Trump's 2024 campaign promises—where they hit home and where they've crashed. Border security and mass deportations? Major strides with sharp drops in crossings, expanded detention, and National Guard deployments. But the Iran war? A "major failure" costing trillions, spiking fuel prices, and fueling inflation—far from "ending wars." National debt spirals toward crisis, military overspend balloons, Middle East entanglements escalate, and government weaponization/persecution lingers. Plus: Joe Kent's bombshell resignation as counterterrorism chief over the Iran push, highlighting elite pressures and broken anti-war vows. "US war costs exceed $8 trillion"—promises made, but the 'swamp' endures. 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Watch on YouTube: youtube.com/channel/UC0Z_Rt_SiPa_HGuyyNW5fLw/?themeRefresh=1Follow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Intro03:45 Evaluating Trump's Key Campaign Promises20:11 Resignation of Joe Kent and Its Implications31:11 Reflections on Trump's Administration and Future Outlook

    Iran War Week 3: Strikes on Iran, Fuel Prices Spike, Bitcoin & Free Speech Crackdown | WTP #146

    The Iran conflict rages into its third week—no end in sight. Sal Assante delivers raw updates: US-Israel strikes hammer Iranian missile sites, nuclear facilities like Natanz, internal security, and Tehran itself, with reports of massive civilian displacement (3.2M+ fleeing), school casualties, and regime resilience under new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei vowing to choke the Strait of Hormuz. Domestically: Skyrocketing fuel prices/inflation crush Americans, government ramps up censorship on war coverage and independent reporting, Epstein files stay buried amid propaganda. Crypto twist—Bitcoin surges ~7% to ~$71K+ as a hedge amid turmoil, defying expectations as gold stalls and stocks dip. "The machine" drives endless war regardless of promises—civilian costs mount, free speech threatened. Mobilize, dissent, stay vocal. 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0Z_Rt_SiPa_HGuyyNW5fLwFollow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Intro00:31 - Analysis of Iran's missile stockpile and US military outlook01:05 - Domestic fallout, including economic impacts and government censorship03:20 - Challenges faced by US military strategy and the unintended consequences08:55 - Political shifts and military engagement under Trump's administration09:25 - Casualty reports and the escalation of violence, including civilian casualties17:01 - Non-transparent government actions and dismantling public trust17:54 - Parallels with past US wars and propaganda manipulation18:16 - Reflection on political promises versus reality in leadership21:37 - Why Bitcoin no longer correlates with global turmoil as it once did25:13 - Closing remarks: urging listeners to stay informed and vocal

    Conspiracies Of The 21st Century | WTP #144

    Tensions explode—Sal Assante breaks down the massive U.S.-Israel joint strikes on Iran that killed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, targeting nuclear sites, missile launchers, and leadership in a bold regime change bid after failed nuclear talks. Retaliation rains: Iran hits U.S. bases (3 American troops dead), Israel, and Gulf targets, sparking fears of wider war. Sal dissects media propaganda justifying escalation, Israel's heavy influence on U.S. policy, economic fallout (oil shocks, markets rattled), and echoes of Wesley Clark's "7 countries in 5 years" plan ending with Iran. "Propaganda is used to justify war"—vote out the warmongers before it's World War III rampant again. Geopolitics, military budgets, and hidden strategies exposed. 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wethepatriots/videosFollow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Intro00:55 The Escalation of Conflict: Iran and the U.S.08:07 The Role of Israel in U.S. Foreign Policy15:31 The Consequences of Regime Change in Iran

    Conspiracies Of The 21st Century | WTP #144

    Once "crazy conspiracies" are now undeniable facts—Sal Assante exposes how dismissed theories became reality. Food industry manipulation of dietary guidelines fuels obesity crises; Epstein scandal's elite ties (powerful names in 2026 releases) shield pedophiles over victims. COVID lab leak gains traction amid debated origins; Iraq's fake WMDs justified endless war; NSA's mass surveillance (Snowden-proven, ongoing FISA fights) erodes privacy in a "surveillance economy." "We are the product"—government protects itself, not us. Time for real accountability and transparency to rebuild trust. 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wethepatriotsFollow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Introduction to Conspiracy Theories02:03 The Impact of the Food Industry08:28 The Jeffrey Epstein Scandal13:04 The COVID-19 Pandemic20:12 Iraq WMD Intelligence25:26 NSA's Global Mass Surveillance

    Epstein Files drop: Trump's Transparency Fail, Protected Elites & Super Bowl disaster | WTP #143

    The long-awaited Epstein files drop—over 3.5 million pages released under the Transparency Act Trump signed—but Sal Assante calls it a massive letdown: heavy redactions, selective disclosures, and zero real accountability for the powerful. "This is not what we voted for"—disillusionment grows as the documents seem to shield elites (including awkward Trump mentions) rather than expose pedophilia networks and deliver justice for victims. Public trust in government hits rock bottom amid systemic corruption—no arrests, no term limits, no change. Sal pivots to cultural rot with the Super Bowl halftime show (Bad Bunny's performance drawing Trump's fury as a "slap in the face to our country" for not resonating with core American audiences). From political deception to entertainment disconnect, it's time to demand real reform and come out of the shadows. 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wethepatriotsFollow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Intro00:50 The Epstein Files: A Controversial Release11:26 The Fallout of the Super Bowl Halftime Show

    Gambling Epidemic: Online Betting Destroying Young Men, Sports Integrity & Our Culture | WTP #142

    The house is always winning—and America is losing big. Sal Assante sounds the alarm on the explosive surge in online gambling since legalization, with nearly half of men 18-49 holding sportsbook accounts and 10% of young men (18-30) showing problem gambling signs—triple the national average. Pervasive ads bombard us, turning sports into a rigged casino where integrity crumbles under fixed-point scandals and youth swap investing for bets. Gambling addiction skyrockets, fueling financial ruin, mental health crises, and societal decay—young men hit hardest by debt, depression, and lost futures. Prediction markets add ethical nightmares, blurring lines in politics and beyond. "It's a disaster"—Sal calls for outright bans or strict regulations to save sports, culture, and the next generation before it's too late. 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wethepatriotsFollow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Intro04:32 The Impact on Society and Sports09:13 The Call for Change in Gambling Laws

    Snowed In & Fired Up: ICE Shootings, Sanctuary Chaos & Inflated Asset Bubble | WTP #141

    Back after brutal New Jersey snowstorms derailed the schedule—Sal Assante returns with no-holds-barred takes on America's boiling crises. Recent deadly ICE encounters and shootings during immigration protests (like the tragedies in Minneapolis) expose the dangers of sanctuary cities clashing with federal enforcement, where political agendas turn streets into battlegrounds. Epstein files? Still buried despite promises—DOJ drags its feet on full release, fueling cover-up suspicions. International flashpoints rage on with Ukraine/Russia tensions, Trump's renewed Greenland push for strategic dominance, and bloated military budgets draining resources. Economically, asset prices are wildly inflated—homes out of reach, markets detached from reality—demanding urgent corrections before the bubble bursts. "Stay informed, do what you can"—patriots, awareness is the first step to action. 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wethepatriotsFollow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Intro01:49 Discussion on Recent Shootings and Immigration Issues11:36 Sanctuary Cities and Federal Law13:36 Political Maneuvering and the Epstein Files15:56 International Relations and Military Budget Concerns18:41 Economic Outlook and Asset Prices22:41 Conclusion and Future Insights

    An Over-Taxed America | WTP #140

    Taxes never stop bleeding us dry—Sal Assante dives deep into the rigged U.S. taxation nightmare, breaking down W-2 employees getting hit before payday vs. 1099 contractors slammed with self-employment double-dips on Social Security and Medicare. "The government already takes its cut" at every layer—payroll, income, multiple hits on the same dollar—crushing middle-income patriots while entitlements and spending balloon unchecked. Many Americans don't even realize how over-taxed they are, with no real benefits to show for it. Sal pushes bold reform: a simple flat tax rate, letting you control your own withholdings—"I think Americans could figure it out." We're extremely over-taxed—time to simplify, slash the burden, and demand fairness before the system collapses under its own weight. 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wethepatriots/Follow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Intro00:45 Understanding W-2 vs. 1099 Taxation03:55 The Complexity of Multiple Tax Types08:01 The Burden of Over-Taxation10:26 Proposed Solutions for Tax Reform

    Maduro Captured, Minnesota Corruption, and Tax Strikes | WTP #139

    Shockwaves from Trump's lightning strike: Sal Assante dissects the bombshell capture of Maduro in Venezuela's chaos, labeling it a "war of aggression" that reeks of impulsive regime change without Congress's nod—echoing history's failed interventions. From the resurfaced Greenland controversy spotlighting Trump's wild strategic plays, to exposing deep fraud in Minnesota's government spending that's fueling public rage, Sal rallies on the brewing tax strike sentiment: "We are stuck footing the bill" for endless elite blunders. Patriots, this is the wake-up call for new political thinking—end the overreach before it bankrupts freedom. 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Tune in on Spotify: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0Z_Rt_SiPa_HGuyyNW5fLwFollow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Intro00:40 Trump's Bold Move in Venezuela09:28 The Greenland Controversy13:13 Fraud in Minnesota16:57 The Call for a Tax Strike24:07 Reflections on American Policy

From Disney "massacring the original idea" with endless remakes killing entertainment culture, to Trump's ongoing disruption of the Republican Party ("Trump breaks the Republican Party"), Sal revisits the raw truths that defined the show. Dive into the remote work debate ("remote work is, in most cases, ridiculous"), the chilling socialist grocery store push in New York City signaling government overreach, and a fierce defense of the Second Amendment against gun control threats.

    2A Under Siege: How Gun Control Disarms Patriots and Invites Tyranny | WTP #137

    The Second Amendment isn't just about guns—it's the ultimate shield for the First, and Sal Assante lays it bare in this hard-hitting episode. From historical infringements that crippled law-abiding citizens to modern gun control laws creating helpless "gun-free" zones where crime explodes, Sal exposes how government overreach strips your right to self-defense while leaving tyrants unchecked. "The Second Amendment protects the First Amendment"—and without an armed citizenry, freedom dies. We should be exercising our rights, because protecting our Republic comes with a cost: the willingness to bear arms against threats foreign, domestic, and bureaucratic. Wake up, patriots—disarmament is the road to serfdom. 🔗 Useful Links:Follow on Substack: https://wethepatriots.substack.com/Watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@wethepatriotsFollow Sal on Social Media:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/salassante?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==X.com: @Sal_assante4Timestamps:00:00 Intro00:50 The Importance of the Second Amendment01:14 Introduction to the Second Amendment03:56 The Importance of the Second Amendment07:11 Historical Infringements on the Second Amendment10:39 The Impact of Gun Control Laws12:55 Defending Against Tyranny and Ensuring Safety

    America's Baby Crisis: Low Fertility, Abortion's Toll, and Immigration Overload | WTP #136

    America's future is vanishing—one birth at a time. Sal Assante exposes the brutal truth behind plummeting U.S. fertility rates, stuck below replacement level since 1971 amid skyrocketing costs, delayed marriages, and a culture that punishes families. From the staggering impact of 65-67 million abortions to economic strains crushing young couples ("things cost so much"), Sal breaks down how low births threaten Social Security, healthcare, and national sustainability. Plus: Does mass immigration mask the crisis while reshaping our cultural fabric? It's time for bold policy fixes and cultural resets to reclaim family-first America. Fertility rates are so low—why?

    Job Apocalypse: Tech Layoffs, Epstein Cover-Ups, and Ceasefire Lies | WTP #135

    As 2025's holiday cheer fades, Sal Assante unleashes on America's economic nightmare—brutal job market stats and tech sector bloodbaths that Wall Street's fake boom can't hide. From Trump's eyebrow-raising sit-down with Mamdani signaling shady alliances, to fresh Epstein files screaming cover-up amid Venezuela's military saber-rattling, Sal demands transparency before the elite bury it all. Wrapping with Gaza and Ukraine's fragile ceasefires crumbling under violations from all sides, he questions if U.S. war machine spending is fueling endless chaos. No sugarcoating: We're in a "big problem," patriots—time to release the files and reclaim our future. Alarming layoffs: Tech hits hardest as stocks lie about recovery.
