Episode 131 — America Last: How The DC Establishment Sold Idaho Out & how Denny Lavé is Gonna Fix It
Show notes
With a new war in Iran, 15 Americans dead, the national debt breaching $39 trillion, and an AI-driven jobs crisis looming — who's fighting for everyday Idahoans in Washington?
In this special edition of The Backlash, host David J. Riley sits down with Denny Lavé, a blue-collar Idaho businessman, author, and political outsider challenging 18-year incumbent Senator Jim Risch in the May 19th Republican primary.
They cover it all: Risch's record on Ukraine and foreign wars, his ties to Lockheed Martin and defense contractors, allegations of using taxpayer-funded mailers as campaign materials, the SAVE Act stalling in the Senate, mass deportations, the surveillance state and FISA renewal, insider trading by members of Congress, Citizens United, Big Pharma's grip on healthcare pricing, and what an America First foreign policy actually looks like.
Denny shares his remarkable personal story — from a broken home, to a monastery in France, to building a successful business across the American West and raising six sons in Idaho.
