Week in Review 79
Wed Feb 04 2026
Is America finally turning the corner, or are we just seeing the calm before a different kind of storm? Today on Saving America, we’re breaking down a historic week: the largest murder rate drop in U.S. history is proving that law and order works, while the Pentagon takes a 'sledgehammer' to DEI contracts. But as the national debt ticks past $39 trillion at a staggering $71,800 per second, we have to ask—is the 'beautiful bill' enough? Plus, the Clintons face contempt charges over Epstein, and RFK Jr. flips the food pyramid on its head. It’s a packed episode you can’t afford to miss.
Thanks for joining me for this episode! I’m a Houston- based attorney, run an HR Consulting company called Claremont Management Group, and am a tenured professor at the University of St. Thomas. I’ve also written several non-fiction political commentary books: Bad Deal for America (2022) explores the Vegas-style corruption running rampant in Washington DC, while The Decline of America: 100 Years of Leadership Failures (2018) analyzes – and grades – the leadership qualities of the past 100 years of U.S. presidents. You can find my books on Amazon, and me on social media (Twitter @DSchein1, LinkedIn @DavidSchein, and Facebook, Instagram, & YouTube @AuthorDavidSchein). I’d love to hear from you!
As always, the opinions expressed in this podcast are mine and my guests’ and not the opinions of my university, my company, or the businesses with which I am connected.
