SPEAKER 03 :
Here’s something most investors miss. It’s not recklessness that costs people money. It’s being late. Big shifts start quietly in policy meetings and regulatory rooms long before they hit the headlines. Right now, the AI build-out is driving massive spending in energy, data, and infrastructure. There is a way to potentially benefit from that surge without betting on a single tech stock. To get the full breakdown, go to OxfordRetire.com. Again, that’s OxfordRetire.com.

SPEAKER 04 :
You know what’s fun about watching the Salem News Channel? Sometimes you’re going to hear or see a behind-the-scenes moment. And admittedly, I thought I was off the air. Unfortunately, we had a button pushed the wrong way, and I was frantically trying to get Tracy’s attention. Let me give you a little back story before we bring in Congressman Brandon Gill. We’re in North Texas. We’re the Salem News Channel studios in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. I’m here for a couple of days for a special event. And on the last break, I was trying to get Tracy’s attention. Our communication system failed early this morning. So what we call the talkback, which is really important. And unfortunately, I won’t bore you with all those details. Anyway, I was frantic. Tracy! Tracy! And I was trying to get her on this temporary system we have set up on this iPad. And unfortunately… The feed was left open, and I just got about 100 text messages of people laughing their butts off because you’re hearing me frantically screaming for Tracy. I hope that’s all I said. I mean, look, I’ve always maintained somebody on my team can end my career today by just not muting me. And that’s what happened today, unfortunately. So anyway, it was kind of funny, I think. People got a kick out of it. Text messages, Mike, it’s so funny to hear you bellowing when you’re not on the air. Well, look, you know, we get a little high pressure around here. It gets a little intense, especially when nothing works. And there’s all kinds of technical problems. I check in with Eric before the day starts, and Eric says, we got massive problems today. Now, that’s the way my day started. We got massive problems. So, hey, me yelling Tracy, Tracy, Tracy, you ought to hear her yell Mike, Mike, Mike. But that was kind of funny. So, look, if you’re missing out, you’re going to miss out if you don’t subscribe or download the Salem News Channel app, snc.tv, and you’ll get to check out all the behind-the-scenes shenanigans that occasionally happen because somebody forgot to push a button. And, you know, hey, that’s on me, you know. I could yell Tracy, Tracy, Tracy even if the light was on. All right. Now, Congressman Brandon Gill would never bellow at his staff. I’m told that this incumbent Republican representative from Texas’s 26th congressional district is calm, cool and collected unless he’s interrogating a hapless victim on the congressional floor. Let’s welcome Congressman Brandon Gill. It was an open mic moment, Brandon. I mean, you know, you know, you have you ever had one of those?
SPEAKER 02 :
are on all the time. But it does happen, you know. There’s no difference anymore between public and private life.
SPEAKER 04 :
There’s no line. There’s no more line between public and private anymore. It’s just what’s out there. And, you know, can I just get your take? Because you’re savvy in social media and digital space, and you’ve just become beloved by this country. I mean, I know your constituents love you in the 26th District, but the whole country has been watching the way you’ve carefully dissected some of the folks on the other side politically. But there is such a toxicity right now, isn’t there, in social media with some of these big, high-profile folks. And they’re fighting with each other. And Megyn Kelly’s fighting with Chris Cuomo. And Tucker goes off to – all this stuff is going on. And I maintain that it’s really all motivated – by the yearning for clicks and engagement because the clicks and the engagement lead to profitability. There’s a very solid business model when you’re getting a whole lot of views. And I think a lot of these social media influencers, Brendan, don’t care what they’re actually saying as long as people are watching them say it. Does that make sense?
SPEAKER 02 :
Yeah, you know, I certainly think that there’s a degree of that. You know, there’s two different things that I think of here. One is that we’ve got to be focused on defeating the left, especially in November. And that’s got to be the core objective for us, because no matter what Republican gets elected in the primaries, the Democrat is always going to be worse. With that said, I do think that it’s good that our side has internal debates about what our ideology truly is, that we can flesh that out. You know, I think we should do that in a dignified way, in a thoughtful way, certainly. But I do think that those debates are helpful. You know, you contrast that with the left, where you see Democrats, they have sort of a top-down ideological structure where whatever the party leaders say, the rest of the Democrats, all the way down the ticket, no matter how far down you go, follow in sort of a rank-and-file way. And I’m glad that we’re, I think, more deliberative and thoughtful than they are.
SPEAKER 04 :
Amen, and well put, because we need to be deliberate, we need to be thoughtful, and we just have to understand that some of this stuff that you’re seeing online, remember, it’s being driven by people who, you know, whether you agree with them or disagree or love them or hate them, they all have one thing in common. They’re just trying to get, they want to get clicks. They want to monetize their platform, and I just hope and pray that the majority of people on our side are doing so in a responsible way. Let me also… get your take on this big announcement today that the former Prince Andrew was arrested over the release of the Epstein files. You know, Axios this morning writes a big piece about how Republicans are getting crushed in scores of state and local races. There’s clearly there seems to be a Republican voter malaise. I don’t know if you agree with that or not. I know you saw it in Texas. We’ve seen it in Louisiana, places where traditionally you would think Republicans would soar. It feels like Republicans are staying home in these special elections and these statewide races. Can I get the Congressman Brandon Gill takeaway on the claim that Republicans are sort of apathetic right now and are staying home? Do Democrats have momentum, Congressman?
SPEAKER 02 :
You know, I don’t think it’s that Republicans are apathetic, but I do think that Democrats are particularly fired up. I mean, you have a massive media complex put together with the fact that Democrats are in the opposition right now. We’re in power. They don’t like what the president is doing. All of the great things that President Trump is doing, the Democrats are opposed to. So they are fired up. And that’s a reality that I think we have to confront in a straightforward way. Remember, all of these elections that we’ve seen recently have been off-cycle elections where people are paying less attention. You know, voters tend to be during those, you know, they’re worried about getting their kids to school and what’s going on for dinner. You know, most voters are not as plugged in on a day-to-day basis as, you know, sort of the politicos are. So whenever you have Democrats fired up, they tend to turn out at a higher rate. I don’t think that that necessarily translates well. into the midterms, at least not to the degree that we’ve seen recently. You know, I think our job needs to be to fire up our base, to do the things we said we were going to do, to give Republican voters a reason to go out to the polls in November. That’s not just saying that we’re better than Democrats. That’s saying that we can actually continue the Trump agenda. We can actually deliver on the things that we ran on last cycle. If we do that, I think we can fire up Republican voters and we’ll be just fine. But, you know, that’s a job that’s up to us right now.
SPEAKER 04 :
We have to get the message out. And President Trump is doing that. I know he’s campaigning, I think, this week in Georgia. He’s going to do a big, big swing throughout the country. Because, look, I had somebody call and say, well, Republicans are staying home because of the economy. The economy? Are you kidding me? I mean, have you looked at the Dow? Have you looked at the stock market? Have you looked at inflation? Have you looked at the – Every single measurable number, Congressman, shows that the Trump economy is booming. The tariffs did not result in the catastrophic outcome that a lot of the doomsayers said is going to happen. But maybe the Democrats are trying to successfully pull the wool off over people’s eyes and make people think that the economy is tanking under Republican leadership.
SPEAKER 02 :
Oh, of course. I mean, Democrats are going to do whatever they can to tell the American people that things are worse now than they were four years ago, even though we all know that that’s not true. I mean, inflation averaged 5% under Joe Biden. It reached a peak of about 9%. And within just a year, President Trump got it down to sub 3%. I mean, that alone is a major win for the economy and for working class families in the country that makes life substantively better on a very tangible level. You add that to the fact that markets are booming, that jobs are being created in the United States, that the president is bringing manufacturing back into the United States to actually so we can make things again domestically. I mean, all of these are things that I think the American people can see, they can feel. And, you know, the last thing I’ll say is we passed a massive tax cut bill. last summer that had tax cuts. We repealed large portions of the Green New Deal, all kinds of great conservative policies. And those are going to start kicking in and you’re going to start really feeling them this year. So I think that voters have a lot to look forward to over the next several months between now and November.
SPEAKER 04 :
You know, we’re visiting, of course, Congressman Brandon Gill, early voting underway. President Trump has endorsed you enthusiastically. I’m just I’ve been so impressed with your steady hand and your voice of clarity. I also noticed that, you know, you’ve been aware of the Sharia Free Caucus that has been declared an anti-Muslim hate group by CARE. which is laughable on the surface and on the merits. But this week we’ve been talking about a lot of these issues. I share with my audience how it’s been revealed that in New York City, for example, they’re now doing the morning call to prayer blasted over loudspeakers as early as 5 in the morning in New York City. And, of course, people are up in arms about that. But, of course, there’s always the fear, well, if we resist this, we’re going to be called anti-Muslim, we’re going to be called bigots. You’ve got these things that are happening around our country, and a lot of people are saying, we’ve got to stand up. How do you balance that? How do you respect, for example, a Muslim’s right to pray and a right to worship as they see fit with a community that doesn’t, for example, appreciate a call to prayer being blared over loudspeakers at 5 in the morning?
SPEAKER 02 :
Right. Well, first of all, CARE, which you referenced earlier, is a terrorist organization that has no place in the United States. That is an anti-Western civilization hate group, and I could care less what they think about me or any other Republican. They have no business being in our country. With that said, you know, I think, you know, they’re going to attack Republicans and conservatives who want to preserve our country and preserve our culture and all the things that make our country great and make it the envy of the world. And, you know, we can respond by trying to be politically correct and we can stick our noses in the air and we can say, you know, we believe in, you know, idiotic multiculturalism where we can invite people into the country who hate us and hate our values and want to destroy our country Or we can be strong and bold and we can say, I’m going to defend this country so that my kids and my grandchildren inherit the same incredible opportunities that I got to experience in America. And they will not if we allow this Islamic invasion to continue. The reality is that we in the West, in the United States in particular, have very different values than the islamic world and they are fundamentally incompatible with different conceptions of freedom of speech different conceptions of freedom of religion different conceptions of the separation of church and state and if we allow these alien values to come into our country and fundamentally change not only our cultural fabric but our governing framework we’re going to destroy not only america but all of western civilization You know, you can ask yourself very simply, is there a single Western country that has become better off by becoming more Islamic in modern history? And the answer is no. Every single country in the West in modern history that has become more Islamic is worse off for it. Freedom gets eroded. The country’s cultures get subverted. And the quality of life of the people there lessens. So that’s something that we have to be very clear about and be very bold about because it is our job, particularly as elected officials, to stand up and defend our people.
SPEAKER 04 :
You know, last week Secretary of State Marco Rubio gave a brilliant speech at the Munich Security Council about American sovereignty, about independence, about all these fundamental issues. Were you as impressed as everybody else over Marco Rubio’s speech?
SPEAKER 02 :
Oh, I certainly was. I thought it was brilliant. And he’s exactly right that mass migration from anywhere, particularly the Islamic world, but really anywhere, does destabilize the United States. You know, again, the point of immigration is to benefit the American people. There’s no other purpose for it to exist. And whenever you have millions of people coming into the country illegally in particular, that doesn’t benefit our people. That reduces working class wages. It erodes our social cohesion, creates all kinds of social and crime problems that we now have to deal with. And I’m glad that we have an administration who can say that openly and in a straightforward way. And by the way, he’s saying what all the American people recognize to be an obvious truth. And that’s something that, you know, for too often we’ve had elected officials who would back away from clear and straightforward truths. And I’m glad that we have an administration with some moral clarity here.
SPEAKER 04 :

From the wild world of D.C. politics to America’s culture clash, brace yourself for the reality check you’ve been waiting for. The one and only Mike Gallagher.
SPEAKER 04 :
I saw a headline this morning on Fox News saying, what will the impact of Andrew’s arrest be for the royal family? I want to know what the impact is going to be for the United States of America. I got an email today. Our email address is mike at mikeonline.com. If you ever want to shoot us a note, you can always reach us on the MyPillow text line, which is 800-655-MIKE. Or you can call us at 800-655-MIKE, which is my preferred method of communication. This is a caller-driven show, and I love calls from Americans every single day. I live for it. I really do. I appreciate your voice. I appreciate your perspective, even when you disagree with me. I may get a little feisty with you, but I love hearing from people from all walks of life call this show. And the email I got from Allen in Pittsburgh says, the MAGA Republicans are still waiting for arrests. No arrests. Comey, Schiff, Clinton, Obama. Fraud in Minnesota. No arrest of high-powered officials. Epstein, no arrest. You know, there’s a word that we use a lot around here, and that’s accountability. Today, Axios has a big article about the lackadaisical, the malaise, the apathy of Georgia officials Alabama, Texas, Florida, just Republican voters across the country. The way Axios puts it, Republicans are getting crushed in scores of state and local races. Why is that? Why are Republicans staying home? Well, Marjorie Taylor Greene thinks she knows. And, you know, she wound up, she’s leaving Congress over her ire over a lack of accountability. She ripped the administration today for failing to make any arrests associated with the Epstein scandal as cops arrested the King’s brother. I mean, Marjorie Taylor Greene… wrote, the UK has arrested Andrew because of the Epstein files. Over here, we have zero Epstein-related arrests and investigations since the release. Look, I don’t know if it’s fair to connect those dots or not. I’m interested in how you feel. I’m interested in your explanation. Nobody yet has given me a substantive, and I’ve reason for Republicans staying home. The other day, Brian Kilmeade on Fox News Channel said, hey, Democrats have a lot of momentum right now. You can’t, the numbers don’t lie. And a lot of people were, you know, ready to, you know, lambaste him for saying that. According to Axios, Republican internal polling is showing a real downturn in support of Republican candidates. Since the start of the year, Republicans have suffered double-digit drop-offs from Trump’s 2024 performance in state legislative elections in Virginia, New York City, Minnesota, southeastern Connecticut. Now those are all blue cities and blue areas. Senate Republicans, and some Republicans, Axios says, caution against reading too much into state and local elections. arguing they don’t often reflect national trends. Do you think that’s true? Do you think that’s correct? Or do you believe that the failure of the Trump administration to initiate arrests, i.e. accountability, Is it play here? And look, you’ve got to appreciate the old adage, perception is reality. The reality may be there’s nobody to arrest. I don’t know. I know a lot of people in this audience seem to be a lot more well-versed in the Epstein files than I am. I saw the other day that if you stack the Epstein files that have been released from the bottom up, It would be as tall as the Empire State Building. That’s how many millions of documents have been released regarding this despicable creep, Jeffrey Epstein. A creep who had a lot of connections. He had connections, man. He had Harvard, politics, Democrats, Republicans, Clinton. The Clintons. Pictures of, you know, there’s Donald Trump. And the truth of Trump is one of the most delicious ironies of all. He’s the guy who was the Epstein whistleblower. Trump was the guy that kicked him out of his club, and Trump was the guy who evidently called the Palm Beach Police Department and said, glad you got him. And that’s why Epstein hated Trump. That’s why Epstein was plotted and scheming to try to stop Trump from being elected. So, look, it’s a real headache, but I want to turn to you, and I’m back home and familiar. Not home anymore. It used to be my home here in North Texas. Love the area. Love the people. I’ve gotten to hang out with my buddy Mark Davis, and he and I are doing an event later tonight together, a private event featuring Donald Trump Jr. and some movers and shakers and some… great folks who are going to be part of this event for a lunch and a dinner thing. It’s good to be here. And I just wonder, I turn to you, as I always do, to find out why you think Republicans are staying home. Why are Republicans not motivated to make, pardon me, damn sure that these lunatics on the left aren’t going to get in control again? Have you seen their power roster? You know Kamala’s in the lead still right now? They had some weird survey that got released this week. Kamala versus Trump in 2028. Now, I’m reading that like I had a stroke. Trump isn’t running again. He can’t run in 2028, contrary to Steve Bannon’s insistence that he can and he will. I don’t know how that works unless we rewrite the Constitution. But ultimately, here’s what I do know. Republicans are staying home in these local elections. Why? Is it Epstein or is it something else? Let’s find out. I want to put your voice front and center here on the Mike Gallagher Show. 800-655-MIKE. One call, one number does it all. You can call or text us on the MyPillow text line or call us. 800-655-6453.

You go to ReliefFactor.com, ReliefFactor.com, or call 800-4-RELIEF. 800, the number 4 relief, for the one and only Relief Factor. There’s breaking news that we need to share with you. Some new polling from Insider Advantage. Trump’s approval rating today exceeds his election victory margin. Right now, Trump, according to Insider Advantage, has a 50% approval rating. 46% disapproval, 4% undecided. So why are Republicans staying home? Why aren’t Republicans showing up enthusiastically to vote? What do you think is really going on here? 800-655-MIKE. Scott is in the North Texas area, 660 AM KSKY territory. How you doing, Scott?
SPEAKER 09 :
I’m good. I’m good. They’re staying home because the Republicans have no guts. And Blackthune, they’re just all rhinos, man. They got to go. That’s why Paxton’s going to beat Cornyn here, but then the Cornyn voters are going to get mad and not vote for Paxton. So then you’re going to have that crazy Crockett in there.
SPEAKER 04 :
You’ve got a mess in Texas, there’s no doubt, and she could just sail in. I don’t think so, but goofier things have happened. But here’s what I don’t understand. Help me understand this thinking. All right, so there’s a lot of rhinos, a lot of Republicans who are gutless wonders, and I don’t disagree with you. Why does staying home and handing victory after victory to Democrats, why is that the answer to that problem?
SPEAKER 09 :
Why do you have Democratic voters? I mean, who in their right mind would vote for a Democrat?
SPEAKER 04 :
I don’t know. I know. I know. I get it. But we’re giving them the keys to the kingdom if we don’t get off our duffs and show up for these special elections. We’ve got a big primary. You know, Joey Hudson the other day said something to me. I thought it was like he was talking a different language. He said, well, you’re all talking about November. What about June? I said, what do you mean June? He goes, yeah, the primary. Look, primary elections are going to be here in states like South Carolina. Are South Carolinians going to stay home? Are you going to get loony leftists elected because you’re mad about, I don’t know, rhinos, lack of guts, whatever it may be? It’s like it doesn’t equate. Two plus two equals five in this equation. And I’m not fully understanding it. Hey, good to talk to you. I appreciate it very much. Larry’s in Louisiana, 23 past the hour. Hey, Larry, welcome aboard. You’re on the Mike Gallagher Show. Hi. Thank you.
SPEAKER 10 :
I’m from Utah. Yes, sir. And I am one of the Republicans. I will not vote for another Republican until I see some accountability. And I’m not alone in thinking that. What you just said, are we going to hand it over to the Democrats? Yes. The Democrats already control it. We have the majority. The Republicans don’t know how to like winners. There’s too many of them that just are only thinking about themselves. They aren’t thinking about the people that put them in office. I am not going to vote for a Republican only because there is an R by their name. They have to earn my vote. Celeste Malloy is one of the do-nothing Republicans. House of Representative Republicans, that she comes home and says, well, yeah, I voted for the feds. You know, I’m not interested in that.
SPEAKER 04 :
Yeah. I’m retired. But, Larry, pardon me for interrupting, but let me ask you something, Larry. Let me try to understand something. And, listen, I hear what you’re saying over and over every day. A lot of people express your frustration, your disappointment, your anger, really, at the Republican Party today. But let’s acknowledge something. What you’re saying is you’re going to protest. You’re protesting the lack of action, the lack of accountability by staying home and having the lunatics run the asylum. Go ahead.
SPEAKER 10 :
The lunatics are running the asylum anyway. So you don’t think it will get worse? No. Oh, it will. It’s going to have to get much worse before something happens. We keep sending these same Republicans. This is twice we have given them a president that loves America and the majority in the House and Senate, and they have done absolutely nothing with it. I’m retired and my biggest bill is taxes. And I see all this tax money being wasted and no one. Oh, the bottom feeders are going to jail. But I’m talking about the people at the top that know this is going on. I’m talking about the Clintons.
SPEAKER 04 :
And they just aren’t going to get my vote. And on the subject of taxes, I know you’re aware that under President Trump’s leadership, Americans are going to get a record historic tax refund this year. He’s fighting hard to try to help working class Americans. And I just have to ask you in closing, because this is important to me. I want to know, I want to ask you, you support this guy. You voted for him undoubtedly three times, right? Yeah. Let me finish. Let me finish. Do you know what you’re staying home is going to do to him in November? Do you know what they’re going to try to do to destroy his entire legacy? Oh, yes, I do.
SPEAKER 10 :
But I will not vote for the do nothing. President Trump did the tax breaks. All by himself. Right. And then had to convince the Republicans.
SPEAKER 04 :
Right. Right. But Larry, I got it. I get it. But Larry, why do you but why do you want to punish President Trump? I’m not. I’m not. Well, you are. No, I’m not. Oh, sure you are. Because if enough people feel the way you do, Larry, and again, don’t get me wrong, I respect and hear every word you’re saying. You’re going to stay home in November. The Democrats are going to take control of the House and the Senate, and then they’re going to destroy Trump’s agenda. You’re going to watch them break apart and dismantle everything that you voted for. Yep. You’re okay with that?
SPEAKER 10 :
I am, because I will not… No, I’m not okay with it, but I am not going to vote for these do-nothing Republicans again.
SPEAKER 04 :
All right, I got it. This is the frustration that people feel, and it’s frustrating to me, because on the one hand, Larry understands how he’s going to help sabotage… Unintentionally, I get it. He’s going to help sabotage Trump’s agenda, but ultimately… The frustration that you just heard is real, and I’m sure not going to ignore it. Appreciate your call, Larry.
SPEAKER 06 :
In his new movie, The Dragon’s Prophecy, Dinesh D’Souza brings the new Middle East into focus with a message of perseverance, faith, and a shared global destiny.
SPEAKER 01 :
Could the fate of the world, of humanity itself, be somehow tied to this place?
SPEAKER 05 :
At long last, we have peace in the Middle East. Israel and Christians are coming together in a way they have never been before since the Book of Acts.
SPEAKER 06 :
But is this the end of Hamas and radical Islam? What does the Bible say?
SPEAKER 05 :
We have to become fighters in the spirit for God. We don’t accept what the enemy wants to do with our culture. We don’t accept what he wants to do with the nation. If we keep fighting, we win.
SPEAKER 06 :
Powerful, prophetic, a must-see movie based on Jonathan Cahn’s international bestseller. The Dragon’s Prophecy combines history and scripture with faith, justice, and renewal. The Dragon’s Prophecy, a new film by Dinesh D’Souza. Now available on Amazon, YouTube, and iTunes.
SPEAKER 1 :
And God.
SPEAKER 04 :
In all the years I’ve done this for a living, it’s a joy to get to tell you about great companies that love the country, that appreciate patriotism, and that make a difference in people’s lives. And when I first learned about American Independence Gold, something that’s different about these guys, well, there’s a lot of things that are different about them. They’re a veteran-owned company. They stand strong for patriots. And there’s a lot of things that they offer that the other guys just don’t. And here to help explain some of that is the Director of Operations for American Independence Gold, David Harper, who joins us here on the Mike Gallagher Show. David, it’s great to see you, and I appreciate you joining us. I want to get into all the reasons that our audience should be adding physical gold and silver to their portfolio. But can I brag on American Independence Gold for just a moment? You sure can.
SPEAKER 06 :
Thanks for having us.
SPEAKER 04 :
You bet. You bet. I love the fact that every purchase supports Tunnel to Towers. And this is an organization that Americans have just absolutely embraced forever. Of course, they help injured and fallen heroes and their families. But that’s one of the many aspects of what makes American Independence Gold. I’ve got to believe that you being a part of the American Independence Gold family, that’s very special for you, too, that this is a company that really cares about America’s veterans.
SPEAKER 01 :
Absolutely. One of our founders performed three tours in Afghanistan and Iraq. We’re very proud of him. And especially being chosen out of, I think, 50 applicants of gold companies, Tunnel to Towers chose us to represent them as a proud partner and sponsor.
SPEAKER 04 :
Wow. Wow. And I’m going to get into, for our audience, all the reasons that it makes sense to contact American Independence Gold. I mean, gold represents freedom. Silver has been hitting crazy record highs. I’ll tell you about the way you can get a free mercury dime and register for a free gold bar giveaway. But, David, I just wanted to start our conversation today. by reminding this audience of why your company is special. The idea that if you decide to invest in gold and silver and reach out to American Independence Gold, know that a portion of the purchase is going to support our brave men and women who’ve lost so much and sacrificed so much. And to get a mortgage-free home, this is for first responders as well, So God bless you, David, for what you do and for the way your company does an outreach to veterans. It means a lot to the Mike Gallagher Show audience. Now let’s get down to the nuts and bolts of why it’s so important to add physical gold and silver to a retirement portfolio. My financial guy, the reason I invested with American Independence Gold is because I know how important it is, how crucial it is, especially in today’s economic climate. Can you talk to somebody in our audience who might sort of be on the fence and not recognize why it’s so important to add physical gold and silver to their portfolio?
SPEAKER 01 :
Right. Great question. Thank you for that. We have a lot of individuals and retirees and investors that approach our organization not knowing anything about the industry. And we take more of a question-based approach to this because it’s not for everyone. There’s a lot of geopolitical economic uncertainty where folks need a helping hand and someone they can lean on that’ll be there every month where they get a phone call, whether gold or silver is up or down. And there’s a lot to the process where we’re not just talking about gold and silver. We want to get to know our clients. What’s keeping them up at night? Where have they been? Where do they think we’re headed? What’s their biggest inspiration behind looking into gold and silver?
SPEAKER 04 :
You know, there are some real world examples of how your clients have benefited from this very unique education first approach. It’s another thing I really appreciate about American Independence Gold. You just don’t want to sell gold or silver. You’re not just trying to make a transaction. Give us some real world examples of how some of your clients have benefited from this unique sort of education first approach.
SPEAKER 01 :
Well, we could look at the numbers and the performance over the last year, year and a half of gold and silver. Most of our clients, I would say we focus a higher majority in silver versus gold. Silver with the components and the industrial uses from microchip technology to now AI technology.
SPEAKER 04 :
We’re visiting with David Harper. He’s the director of operations for American Independence Gold, one of our great partners here at the Mike Gallagher Show. I had a listener tell me last week that they were reaching out to you guys, but they were worried about the security, how safe and secure it is if they’re going to order physical gold or silver. How does that work? Can you walk us through how you guys make sure that a shipment, that a delivery is going to be safe?
SPEAKER 01 :
sure so we have wholesalers around the world in different mints that we work with once the metals are in the process of being shipped out they’re assigned in an actual tracking number that gets texted and emailed and a phone call to the client to let them know when their metals should arrive someone direct or indirect over the age of 18 should be at the house to sign for the actual delivery and we ask that Once the delivery is performed, that they inspect the box to make sure that everything is accounted for because an inventory sheet will be included in that package. And, of course, it’s insured for any lost or damaged items.
SPEAKER 04 :
You know, I had to be educated, and when I first invested, I wanted to know some of the basics. So do me a favor. Let’s start at the basics. What are the most popular gold and silver products that you recommend? For somebody who might be a beginner, who might be investing and adding gold and silver or silver to their portfolio, take us to the kind of square one, and what would you tell a beginner?
SPEAKER 01 :
Do not think of this as a day trade. This is an alternative asset that we recommend at least three to five years. Of course, every month we’re in touch with our clients. When you are purchasing a product, it’s very important to have a serial number assigned to that product. So when our clients are looking at gold and silver bars, we always recommend what’s called a Valcambi silver or gold bar. And that’s produced from a Swiss mint. It’s been around since the 1960s. It looks like a Hershey’s bar. Little pieces can be chipped off if for physical delivery they want to. That’s not a Valcambi bar. That’s a standard gold bar. But yes, it looks like a chocolate bar where it could be chipped off in little pieces used for bartering for goods and services or for potential sale back either to our firm. Of course, we’d love the first right or option to purchase it back because of our buyback commitment. But there would probably be a lot less questioning as far as the authenticity and the purity of it coming from the Swiss mint, along with a serial number and packaged and sealed.
SPEAKER 04 :
Look, this show is blessed with a lot of great sponsors, and I like to showcase some of our sponsors, especially when there’s a company with a great mission like what you guys offer. And again, the fact that one of your founders was a veteran and You support Tunnel to Towers.

SPEAKER 03 :
promo code mike g here’s something most people don’t know when warren buffett was just 13 years old he didn’t put his money into a savings account while other kids were earning next to nothing at local banks buffett put 114 into a little known investment today that 114 would be worth over 15 million dollars and it wasn’t a risky trade it wasn’t even insider knowledge It was an account that’s been around since 1888, and over the last 25 years, it’s averaged 29% a year. That’s what happens when your money is allowed to compound. Compare that to today’s savings accounts, paying less than half a percent while inflation quietly eats away at your buying power. Buffett understood early, banks are great businesses, just not for savers. If you’d like to see what some investors call the 29% account, go now to secretaccount29.com. That’s secretaccount29.com. Here’s something most people miss. Investors don’t usually lose money because they’re reckless. They lose money because they hear about opportunities after the biggest players have already positioned themselves. Major shifts often start quietly in policy meetings, regulatory changes, and capital planning long before they make headlines. Right now, AI isn’t just a technology story. It’s an energy story, a data story, an infrastructure story. And when government and major corporations move in the same direction, the biggest beneficiaries are often the financing and infrastructure channels behind the scenes. There’s one opportunity built around that idea, designed to benefit from the AI build-out without trying to guess which company becomes the next superstar.
