    Is Law Enforcement the Bad Guy Now? | Ten Minutes of Truth EP 55

    New Yorkers are in disagreement with law enforcement, creating a divide in the city, according to Barrett and Baxa. The controversy is centered around street vendors, raising questions about **social justice** and who the city sides with when it comes to **crime**. Is **politics** influencing the perception of **police** in **nyc** and **new york news**? Is **community support** being misguided?   OUR INFORMATION:   Email: BARRETTandBAXA@gmail.com   Web: BARRETTandBAXA.com   X: x.com/barrettandbaxa   Facebook: facebook.com/@barrettandbaxa   TikTok: tiktok.com/@barrettandbaxa   YouTube: YouTube.com/@BarrettAndBaxa   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/31003vWk3WIiLQY9hTg8e3?si=nTZEEEJoRimIEE33ENuR9Q   Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/barrett-and-baxa/id1802508169?i=1000714314948   Our Rockn’ Music: https://www.ricomonaco.com   #ILLEGALSTREETVENDORS #CANALSTREET #NYC #IMMIGRATIONCRISIS #COUNTERFEITGOODS #LAWANDORDER #ICERAIDS #FREEPRESS #STREETFILMING #BARRETTAND BAXA     street vendors, Canal Street NYC, counterfeits luxury bags, sidewalk obstruction NYC, migrant vendors New York, ICE raid New York, law enforcement NYC, filming in public NYC, cultural assimilation USA, free speech street photography, Democrat city law enforcement double standard, Barrett & Baxa podcast

    WHITE HOUSE DEMOLITION OR MEDIA DECEPTION? THE REAL STORY | Ten Minutes of Truth EP 54

    When Trump’s ballroom wrecking ball hit the headlines, the media on the left crumbled — again. In this episode of 10 Minutes of Truth, Barrett & Baxa expose the selective outrage, hypocrisy, and media spin surrounding the so-called “White House demolition.” From MSNBC’s meltdown to viral TikToks mocking the coverage, we dissect how journalists twist the narrative to keep their audience angry and addicted.   We also break down why the same people who cheered tearing down statues now scream about protecting history, and how corporate donors like Comcast, Amazon, and Apple fund the very projects their journalists claim to oppose. If you’re tired of media manipulation and double standards, this one’s a master class in spotting the spin before it hits you.   WATCH THIS EPISODE AND YOU’LL NEVER LOOK AT “MEDIA OUTRAGE” THE SAME WAY AGAIN. WE PULL BACK THE CURTAIN ON THE WHITE HOUSE BALLROOM CONTROVERSY — AND THE DOUBLE STANDARDS THAT DEFINE THE MODERN PRESS.   👉 Subscribe, share, and comment on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Rumble.   👉 Join the conversation: Has President Trump gone too far?

    Stop Playing Nice: How Conservative Politicians Smack Down the Press | Ten Minutes of Truth EP 53

    Unlock the power of conservative media push-back: in this episode, we expose how conservative politicians are finally standing up to mainstream journalists — and how that shift is rewriting the media playbook.   You’ll see how figures like JD Vance and Lindsey Graham are bulldozing through old-school interview formats, calling out anchors like George Stephanopoulos and Kristen Welker, and flipping the narrative on biased questioning. Keywords: conservative media, push-back, mainstream journalism, Trump effect.   We break down the tactics: cutting off the questioner, calling out ratings, referencing the network you’re on — all part of a new strategy for conservative politicians. We examine how this “Trump effect” has trained Republicans to stop playing nice with the press, and how that might reshape the next election. Keywords: press bias, media strategy, Republican politics, interview showdown.   If you want to understand how media-politician dynamics are changing, and why the next cycle might look very different from the last, this episode gives you a front-row seat.     👉 Subscribe, share, and comment on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and Rumble.   👉 Join the conversation: Will these aggressive tactics work for the new brand of conservative?   👉 Stay tuned for upcoming subscriber-only exclusives.   OUR INFORMATION:   Email: BARRETTandBAXA@gmail.com   Web: BARRETTandBAXA.com   X: x.com/barrettandbaxa   Facebook: facebook.com/@barrettandbaxa   TikTok: tiktok.com/@barrettandbaxa   YouTube: YouTube.com/@barrettandbaxa   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/31003vWk3WIiLQY9hTg8e3?si=nTZEEEJoRimIEE33ENuR9Q   Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/barrett-and-baxa/id1802508169?i=1000714314948   Our Kickin’ Music: https://www.ricomonaco.com     Keywords: political commentary, media criticism, future of conservative politics, government oversight.     #MediaSmackdown #ConservativePushBack #MainstreamMediaCritique #JDVance #LindseyGraham #TrumpEffect #PressBias #PoliticalCommentary #BarrettBaxaMedia   media push-back, conservative politicians vs journalists, mainstream media criticism, JD Vance interview, Lindsey Graham clip, George Stephanopoulos confrontation, Kristen Welker Meet the Press, Trump effect politics, Republican media strategy, press bias shutdown, interview showdown, political media tactics, future of conservative party

    King Trump the Party Pooper, Kenny Loggins and 7 Million Questions | Ten Minutes of Truth EP 52

    In this wild 10 Minutes of Truth, Steve and Bob dig into the internet’s latest fever dream — an AI-generated “Trump Top Gun” video that has even Kenny Loggins fired up. The guys debate whether Trump reposting it was juvenile or just Trump being Trump. Then, they tackle the questionable “7 million” figure behind the so-called No Kings protests and the media’s new obsession with crowd size.   Finally, the episode dives into disturbing examples of public figures crossing the line — from a Chicago teacher’s gun gesture to Don Lemon’s unhinged comments.
