A new poll sparks outrage as nearly half of Democrats buy into a wild conspiracy about the Trump assassination attempt, raising serious questions about how far political thinking has drifted. Mike digs into the numbers and what they reveal about a growing disconnect from reality on the left. From viral social media takes to on-air reactions, the conversation turns to whether this mindset is driven by ignorance, ideology, or something darker. He also highlights how extreme narratives are bleeding into mainstream discourse—and what that means heading into the next election cycle. It’s a sharp look at how partisan thinking
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 05 :
This is turning into a pretty exciting week. There’s a lot of good news potentially coming from the states over the redistricting wars that are going on. Looks like the Virginia Supreme Court is poised to strike down the election that was held based on a lot of improprieties and the unconstitutionality of the way that ballot question was written. At least that’s the read that some of the legal experts have in the way the court denied an appeal yesterday. So that’s looking pretty good. In Florida, the panel put together the redistricting map, which would produce four additional Republican seats in the House of Representatives. That would wipe out what Virginia accomplished. if those two things come together, I wonder what Hakeem Jeffries is going to say about F-arounding and F-outing. Speaking of salty language, I did a little cursing today on social media. I shouldn’t do it. Once in a while, I think it works. Like bat-crap-crazy. When I say on the show bat-crap-crazy, you know what I mean. I don’t mean crap. And I retweeted somebody who pointed out that there’s a study out among Democrats and leftists asking people to answer the following question, whether it is true or untrue, that the Butler, Pennsylvania assassination attempt on President Trump’s life was orchestrated by Trump supporters to benefit him politically. Okay? Now, what do you think the answer is? This was a poll just released, conducted by the Manhattan Institute. Let me repeat the question. The Butler assassination attempt was orchestrated by Trump supporters to benefit him politically. The percentage of those who think it was definitely or probably true, you ready? 46%. 39% think it is definitely or probably untrue. Now, my friend Mark Davis always says Trump derangement makes people who are smart stupid. It turns people who are nice mean stupid. And it takes funny people and makes them unfunny. I reposted, if you follow me today on X, and I have a brand new banner up there. We’re promoting the Eminem podcast. We’re getting real excited around here about launching the Mark Davis, Mike Gallagher podcast exclusive content that we think is going to probably start Monday. But stay tuned for those details. And I can give you a pretty big heads up here. We’re going to drop it live on a TV platform at noon, and then it will be posted everywhere at 5 p.m. Eastern time every day. But on Twitter, on X today, I got a little spicy. And what I said was, another way to put it is, Democrats are bat bleep crazy. And I always think this. I always ponder this. I always go back to this fundamental question. Are they crazy or are they just evil? Which is it? Is it both? Is it a combination? Let me repeat the question a third time. The Butler assassination attempt was orchestrated by Trump supporters to benefit him politically. In other words, almost 50%… Of all Democrats and leftists, think that it’s probably true that the guy that shot Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, was set up by Trump supporters to make Trump look good. Now, you and I know how insane that is. You and I know how goofy and unhinged and unmoored from reality that is. I’m not even going to bother to even make the argument. If you made that argument with me, I’d say, yeah, right, now let’s talk about whether the moon is made out of Swiss cheese or whether I’m going to sprout monkey wings and fly home today after work. So my question back to you, and let’s just take a few minutes here in the Relief Factor studios. I’ve got something going on, too. If you notice my voice, I don’t know what’s up with me. I’ve had a weird, phlegmy cough for about a week. I’m pretty sure it’s allergies. My digestion’s been kind of off. Everything’s been kind of weird for me for like a week, week and a half. I’m not sleeping very good, but I feel pretty good. I don’t feel bad. But I’m noticing, I think, in my voice, I feel a little stuffed up. Get a little Vicks sinus spray here to clear the old sinus passages on my next break, and maybe that’ll help. Don’t do Afrin. Don’t do Afrin. You can get addicted to that stuff. Take it from me. I mean, I could honestly say I’ve never been an addict of anything, but then that’s not quite entirely true because many, many decades ago when I was a broadcaster and I had a big job and I was sick and I got stuffed up, I started taking Afrin. Before I know it, I couldn’t go half hour without squirting that stuff in my nose. And only until I broke a blood vessel in my nose and nearly bled out in the emergency room did I go cold turkey and get rid of it. So be careful with nasal sprays. if you’ve got allergy problems like I do. And I think that’s probably what I’m going through with some allergies. But anyway, enough about me. Let’s talk about me. 800-655-MIKE is my phone number. This is the Mike Gallagher Show. The text line is called the Mike Gallagher Show My Pillow Line. And I want you to answer a simple question for me. When you hear that nearly 50% of Democrats think… that Trump and his supporters are staging these assassination attempts. Real quick question.

Most of the text messages are saying all of the above, that people on the left are evil and are stupid. If nearly 50% of Democrats believe that these assassination attempts on President Trump’s life is actually being orchestrated by Trump supporters, it’s either evil or it’s either stupidity or maybe a combination. Pennsylvania writes, Democrats are evil and so deranged that they believe what they say. They thrive on hate. South Carolina, Jason writes, left-leaning Democrats are absolutely both stupid, ignorant morons and certainly evil. Their ideology is evil. Did you see Brendan Gill interrogate a pro-abortion representative on Capitol Hill yesterday? I mean, you see this testimony and you would say, how could I ever vote for a political party that endorses abortion? I mean, I know it’s a decades-old debate, but what Brendan Gill, who’s been a frequent guest on our show, and he is a rising star of the Republican Party, a Texas representative, what he did with this abortion activist… who struggled to answer his simple questions about abortion procedures, this isn’t just, you know, political bickering. This is not even right-left. This is evil. Evil. And, of course, they want to secularize everything. That’s why I’m excited about this movie we’ve been telling you about called The Story of Everything. It’s a movie that Hollywood is never going to greenlight. The mainstream would rather you didn’t see it. It explores the staggering math of intelligent design. Look, we know there is a God. We know there is God. We know about intelligent design. The math is there. The science is clear. Well, this movie, The Story of Everything, featuring Dr. Stephen Meyer from the Discovery Institute, challenges the narrative that our kids have always gotten. Oh, we’re just an accident. Oh, it’s a fluke. It just happened, right? What if the science could tell a different story? Well, guess what? Beginning April the 30th, which I think is tomorrow. Gosh, April’s flying by. April 30th through May 6th, you can go to thestoryofeverything.film, get tickets. And find out all the details about where you can see this remarkable movie. It is a game changer in a profound way. Go to thestoryofeverything.film to find out where you can see it. It’s in 600 theaters all around the country. Just one week only. April 30th through May 6th. Thestoryofeverything.film. Thestoryofeverything.film. There’s Jim in Minneapolis wondering how the process goes when Trump supporters arrange a hit on President Trump. Hey, Jim. What?
SPEAKER 03 :
Good morning, Mike. Love your show. I couldn’t agree more with all of your textures. And you’re right. Evil walks among us. It’s mind-boggling. Here’s my question to the doubters. So did all of the mega Trump supporters, did they pull straws and short straws? The guy that gets to get murdered behind the president?
SPEAKER 05 :
Yeah. And they got to get somebody good. And they got to get somebody good. They got to get a guy who can shoot towards the president, not hit him in the brain, but just shoot him in the ear so that there’s some blood there. for the iconic, you know, video and history, but don’t kill him. I mean, they had to find a really, really good sharpshooter in that MAGA crowd, Jim.
SPEAKER 03 :
And Mike, they had to find someone who was willing to die for the cause to promote the scam.
SPEAKER 05 :
Well, maybe, maybe, maybe, though. Maybe the theory is that that was the surprise at the end. You know, a lot of times they get the patsy, and the patsy doesn’t know he’s going to get killed at the end. All the John F. Kennedy conspiracy theorists have always said that Oswald didn’t know that Jack Ruby would kill him. But Oswald was very much in on it, along with the CIA and the Russians and Lyndon Johnson and the Secret Service agent who really secretly shot John Kennedy from the front seat of the car. I mean, we’re just obsessed with conspiracies. You know, what Candace and Alex and those guys do is just sort of a 2026 version of what we’ve been doing forever. Remember Michael Medved? Remember that guy? He had a conspiracy day, and all the people with the crazy conspiracies would call in, and he’d try to refute them. But, you know, to Jim’s point about evil being around us, I’m going to play something that’s very difficult for you to hear or see. I’m going to give you a warning. If you’ve got impressionable children, you may want to use a little discretion for the next five minutes. Yesterday there was a hearing on Capitol Hill about abortion protests. And a pro-abortion lady, I don’t know who her name is or what her title is, but a pro-abortion lady said, was being interrogated by Texas’ Congressman Brandon Gill. If you can give me a better example of a more brilliant interrogation than this, I’d love to know what it is. Because in one three-minute clip, Brandon Gill exposes for all the world to see the true horrors…
SPEAKER 06 :
abortion you’re an advocate for abortion for abortion policy what’s your favorite type of abortion I am an advocate for patients having access to the full realm of reproductive health care but do you have a preferred method of abortion that you that you like I do not Let me read through a couple different methods, and I want to get your take on how much you like these. The first type is called a suction abortion. This is when the cervix is dilated in a strong suction, 29 times the power of a household vacuum cleaner, tears the baby’s body apart and sucks it through the hose into a container. Do you prefer that method?
SPEAKER 01 :
I stand by my former testimony.
SPEAKER 06 :
That sounds kind of gross, doesn’t it? Sounds pretty gruesome. Do you agree? It does to me.
SPEAKER 01 :
I stand by how I answered your question fully and accurately.
SPEAKER 06 :
Okay, what about this one? This one is called dilation and curatage. After dilation of the cervix, a sharp looped knife is inserted into the uterus. The baby’s body is cut into pieces and extracted, often by suction. Do you prefer that method?
SPEAKER 01 :
What I believe we are here to talk about today is the FACE Act. We are not here to talk about the legality of abortion.
SPEAKER 06 :
I’m asking you, you’re a pro-abortion advocate. I’m asking if you prefer the deletion and curatage method.
SPEAKER 01 :
I am an access to reproductive health care advocate.
SPEAKER 06 :
You don’t want to talk about abortion itself. Why is that?
SPEAKER 01 :
I would prefer to talk about the reason that the committee called the hearing.
SPEAKER 06 :
Is it because it’s uncomfortable to talk about? It should be uncomfortable.
SPEAKER 01 :
I would prefer, if you would let me finish my statement, to talk about Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act, which is what I was asked to come here to talk about.
SPEAKER 06 :
We’re talking about what that access gets. How about this one? It’s called delation and evacuation. Forceps are inserted into the uterus, grabbing and twisting the baby’s body to dismember him or her. If the head is too large, it must be crushed in order to remove it. Do you prefer that method?
SPEAKER 01 :
I would prefer to talk about the reason the hearing was called and the basis of my expert testimony.
SPEAKER 06 :
It’s uncomfortable to hear this, isn’t it? It is. I think it is because it’s barbaric and evil. How about this one? It’s called the saline injection. It’s when a 20% salt solution is injected through the mother’s abdomen into the baby’s amniotic fluid. The baby’s skin is burned off. The baby ingests the solution and dies of salt poisoning, dehydration, and hemorrhaging of the brain. Do you prefer that method?
SPEAKER 01 :
I would prefer to talk about the subject of the hearing.
SPEAKER 06 :
This is the subject of the hearing. This is about protests outside of abortion clinics. I’m asking you about abortion.
SPEAKER 01 :
I stand by my prior testimony.
SPEAKER 06 :
I wouldn’t want to talk about this either if I were you, because it is barbaric and evil.
SPEAKER 05 :
Evil is what the Democrat Party embraces. That’s the party that you could vote for. And I know that’s difficult to listen to. Incidentally, that was a woman named Jessica Waters, a senior scholar at the American University School of Public Affairs, whose research focuses on reproductive rights.

You don’t have a weight problem. You’ve got a body that’s in survival mode. No medication, crash diet, or app is going to fix that. Hey, look, the GLP-1 drugs are exploding in popularity, and for some they’re a useful tool, but they don’t address why your body started storing fat in the first place. At Ph.D. Weight Loss, they treat unwanted weight as a symptom, a signal that your metabolism, hormones, and stress response need attention. When those get corrected, the weight comes off naturally and it stays off. They’re not just helping you lose weight. They’re helping you increase health span and extend longevity. I lost 53 pounds on the program and I kept it off. Right now, call PHD Weight Loss. Mention my G. We’ll get you two free weeks in the program and they’ll pay for your food.

Never give up. Never surrender. Fight, fight, fight. Because we got a battle on our hands. Big time. I can’t wait to share with you. You know, some of these folks, this Lee Zeldin, kind of a low-key guy out of the Northeast. He’s the EPA administrator. Where do you hear the back and forth he had with that kooky woman with the purple hair from Connecticut? What is she? How old is she? How old is Rosa DeLauroa? Be nice to know how old you are when you decide to stop dyeing your hair purple. It’s just a statement, you know. Look, that’s a choice, I suppose. I’ve got to work on my hair a little bit. My hair’s been too spiky lately. Somebody pointed out on social media the other night that my hair is spiky. I don’t want to have spiky hair, but my barber kind of likes to spike it up there in the front. Anyway! I’m going to share this back and forth between Lee Zeldin and Rora DeLauro. She’s 83 years old, and she wants to attack him without even knowing any of the facts. He’s doing a great job as the administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency. I also want you to be aware of what movies are out there that can really make a difference in your kids’ lives. Mom, Dad… Think about every science documentary, every textbook, every streaming special your kids ever saw. They all tell the same story. We’re here by accident, you know? Universe is random. There’s no God. Are you kidding? God? But what if the science, through a movie, told a different story? This movie, The Story of Everything, blew my mind. And this is a movie Hollywood would never in a million years touch. The mainstream media wouldn’t want you to see it. But what it does is explores the staggering math of intelligent design. You look at the precise laws of physics required for life to exist, the probability of an accident disappears. We talked to Dr. Stephen Meyer a week or two ago about this movie. He’s featured in the movie. He’s from the Discovery Institute. The movie challenges the one-sided story with hard science and undeniable logic. It’s called The Story of Everything. One week only in over 600 theaters worldwide. From April 30th through May 6th, go to thestoryofeverything.film to order tickets. The unusual website, thestoryofeverything.film, thestoryofeverything.film. You will love it. It starts April the 30th. All right, here’s the EPA administrator. Boy, is this good. Going toe-to-toe with the one and only Congresswoman Rosa DeLauro from Connecticut.
SPEAKER 07 :
When climate change is flooding our streets, poisoning our air, driving up health care and disaster cuts, how can the EPA justify abandoning that duty to protect Americans, to appease polluters under the false flag of economic growth?
SPEAKER 08 :
Following the law, Section 202 of the Clean Air Act, where does it say anything about fighting global climate change? Loper Bright, Supreme Court case, you familiar with it?
SPEAKER 07 :
No, maybe others are. I’m not, but let me ask.
SPEAKER 08 :
But that’s really important. As a member of Congress, Loper Bright says that we, as an agency, don’t have the authority to get creative.
SPEAKER 07 :
If Section 202 of the Clean Air Act… No, but you don’t have, excuse me, you do not have the right to say climate change does not exist, that it’s a hoax, and that’s where this administration is coming from.
SPEAKER 08 :
I understand you’re upset that you don’t know what Loper Bright is. Do you know what the major policies doctrine is? I’m upset because… Do you know what the major policies doctrine is? You’re a member of Congress. You should know.
SPEAKER 07 :
Well, you have moved from someone who defended the environment to all of a sudden… I’m very defensive about not knowing the two biggest landmark Supreme Court cases of the last year with regards to your question. You are very defensive about changing your policy and your positions with regard to the environment.
SPEAKER 08 :
You want me to tell you what the two biggest Supreme Court cases are of the last few years?
SPEAKER 07 :
This is what I want you to tell me.
SPEAKER 08 :
Michigan versus EPA?
SPEAKER 07 :
Whoa.
SPEAKER 08 :
West Virginia versus EPA?
SPEAKER 07 :
You know, you’re here because you need money from us. So halt for the second and wait for the questions and answer the questions.
SPEAKER 08 :
Well, I answered your question.
SPEAKER 07 :
Oh, you didn’t.
SPEAKER 08 :
And you didn’t like my answer because you don’t know what Loperbrite is. Because you don’t know what the major policies doctrine is. Because you’re asking me about Section 202 of the Clean Air Act, and you don’t read it. You don’t know what it says.
SPEAKER 07 :
Listen, and what you want to do is to deny… No, I actually read the law.
SPEAKER 08 :
I do my homework. Really? You’re just somebody who likes to have the microphone on. You know what I have to do? I read the law. I read the Supreme Court cases.
SPEAKER 07 :
I don’t have to listen to this.
SPEAKER 08 :
And I would say… No, what you do for your constituents is actually read statutes.
SPEAKER 07 :
This budget is at real risk. Read your Supreme Court. This is the Appropriations Committee. You’re coming here.
SPEAKER 08 :
You care about science. Now you’re threatening to defund it. Oh, my God. No, you don’t fund science. Because you don’t know what Loperbrae is. Because you don’t know what the major policies doctrine is. Your message to our folks at the EPA is that you want to defund us.
SPEAKER 07 :
I don’t have to listen to this BS.
SPEAKER 08 :
BS? You think I made up these cases? Yeah, I think you have made up a whole lot of… I made up Loperbright. I made up West Virginia versus EPA. I made up Michigan versus EPA.
SPEAKER 07 :
You’re ready. Whoa. Whoa is right. What are you doing? Why are you helping the looters?
SPEAKER 05 :
How great is… He reduced her to a tub of purple jello. Now, look, as Michael Goodwin over at the New York Post writes… She’s often an embarrassment to the state of Connecticut and even more sober-minded Democrats with her nuttiness. But she really outdid herself there, didn’t she? I don’t have to listen to this. It’s like arguing with some little old lady over at the Piggly Wiggly over in the kumquats department.

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. 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. SecretAccount29.com.

SPEAKER 04 :
Breaking now on the Mike Gallagher Show.
SPEAKER 05 :
The court has struck down Louisiana’s second majority black congressional district. This is a big, big story, and let me tell you why. What this ruling means, this has to do with the highly anticipated Voting Rights Act Section 2 ruling in Louisiana. It could actually mean a pickup of 12 Republican seats in Congress and a loss of 12 Democrat seats. That’s how big this could be. That could be what a massive, massive swing this could achieve. It changes everything. In fact, some are saying that the entire power dynamic in the United States is about to shift. Now, here’s a real good question. Can they get their act together like Florida’s trying to do in time for the midterms? Will Republicans have the spine to get it done before the midterms? I mean, thank goodness John Thune isn’t tasked with turning this battleship around. If the Republican leadership in every one of these states impacted has the courage and the integrity to act, I mean, hey, Georgia, you willing to step up? I got a very chilling conversation with a friend of mine, very good friend of mine, who has a very dim view of Charlie Kirk because of what Charlie Kirk believes about the Voting Rights Act. And what this person doesn’t know, and this particular individual is not especially engaged in actual facts or issues, the Voting Rights Act… has been used to commit race-based discrimination. There was certainly nothing wrong with the Voting Rights Act in its original form. But over the years, Democrats have used the Voting Rights Act to try to engage in discriminating based on race. And today was a 6-3 ruling. The only three justices who voted against this common sense ruling are the left-wingers, Kagan, Sotomayor, Jackson, they see nothing wrong with obvious left-wing racism. So big, big decision, huge news. Finally, this is something, by the way, Charlie Kirk was arguing for years, that the Voting Rights Act has been used to unfairly gerrymander congressional districts so the Democrats could try to retain power. Well, it is a stunning defeat. for the Democrat machine today, thanks to the United States Supreme Court. I want to also pick up where we left off with this goofy Rosa DeLora. You know, we can laugh at her. We can joke about her purple hair and crazy old lady embarrassing Connecticut, and she does. But there’s a very serious undercurrent to that testimony that took place yesterday with Lee Zeldin. Let me share this exchange about a glass of weed killer that she was holding as a prop. Michael Goodwin, the great Michael Goodwin over at the New York Post noticed this and wrote about it. First, here’s this really, really nasty statement.
SPEAKER 08 :
exchange from this nasty lady is that your question i’d say don’t if that if your cup was filled with glyphosate i’m telling you as the administrator of epa don’t drink it thank you so much for agreeing to what we need i don’t know what the question was you you’re holding up a cup saying glyphosate you know don’t drink it don’t inject it
SPEAKER 07 :
Maybe you should try doing that. Excuse me. How about that?
SPEAKER 05 :
Maybe you should try killing yourself by drinking a glass of weed killer. Now, Michael Goodwin writes, in almost any other era, that hostile exchange would have been an instant embarrassment on Capitol Hill. But at a time when political violence is becoming frighteningly common and widely accepted, DeLauro’s nasty suggestion that Lee Zeldin, drink a glass of weed killer, marked just another day in the trenches. I mean, this really is the Democrats’ mantra today. It’s why they’re going to lose in the midterms, I think. Their newest phrase, when they rage at us, go kill yourself. Michael writes, dripping with bitterness, the 83-year-old blue-haired Deloro is often an embarrassment to Connecticut and more sober-minded Democrats with her nutty bluster. She outdid herself yesterday. Certainly wasn’t interested in Zeldin’s factual and workmanlike testimony. I don’t have to listen to this BS, she raged. But the truth is the timing of her outburst is particularly awful given the attempted assassination of President Trump and members of his cabinet Saturday night. Her push for Lee Zeldin to drink a glass of weed killer illustrates how numb so many Democrats are to political violence, especially when Trump and Republicans are the target, as they always are. Either they don’t realize how crazy they sound or they don’t care. Call in the president, a Nazi, a dictator, a king, a pedophile, a rapist. All these buzzwords indicate that many people think they have the license to say almost anything that comes to mind. Now, Trump, of course, is no shrinking violet. But he has the unhappy distinction of having been the target of three would-be assassins that we know of. Iranian state television flashed an image from an assassin’s attempt to kill Trump in Pennsylvania. Noting Trump was wounded, the Iranian broadcast added, this time it will not miss the target. Now look, this is where we are. The phrase Trump derangement syndrome started almost as a joke. But a decade later, the crazy rage shows no sign of running out of steam. Much as Hanoi Jane Fonda turned her protest against Vietnam into treasonous conduct, too many Americans are crossing a line in how they oppose Trump. It’s like they believe they’re in a TV game show where the winner is the contestant who can say the most hateful, awful things about him. This is what the Democrats have done with their party. We’re loathing the president is a minimum requirement for membership. There is no, look, party leaders in the progressive wing, they’re going to have to come to terms with this. There remain policy differences, of course, but the specifics of what Dems stand for is less important than their gut feelings about Trump, the Republican Party, and his supporters. They’ve made him public enemy number one. And it’s not coincidental to the rising tide of violence. The idea that there’s a connection between overheated rhetoric and political violence was a universal view for a very long time. But these days, any Democrat who urges his party to tone it down risks being seen as too weak on Trump. There’s no political gold in that, Michael Goodwin writes. And so the hate and violence will go on. And on. We’re going to post that article in its entirety from Michael Goodwin of the New York Post on my website, MikeOnline.com. Check it out. Go to MikeOnline.com. You’ll see the entire article by the great Michael Goodwin.

It 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. SecretAccount29.com.
