The Elliot Omanson Show

This week, Elliot shares one of the most surreal experiences of his life: starting the week inside Mar-a-Lago as a guest of Glenn Beck, and ending it in New York City surrounded by left-wing influencers, LGBTQ leaders, intelligence officials, and cultural activists. Two worlds that never mix — and Elliot walked straight through both. At Mar-a-Lago, Elliot attended the American Journey Experience fundraiser and was invited into Gle...

We’re proud to feature Rocky Malloy on this week’s Murphy’s Market Minute. Rocky is a former U.S. Merchant Marine Commander whose life was transformed after a series of extraordinary, near-death experiences led him to faith. Today, he leads the National School Chaplain Association, bringing chaplaincy, hope, and spiritual support to students across the U.S. and around the world. Rocky is joining us in Kansas City this week—and he’l...

Markets tumbled this week, with all three major indices sliding sharply. The last—and largest—of the Magnificent 7, Nvidia, reported very strong earnings Wednesday after the bell, beating both revenue and profit expectations. Stocks initially opened higher on the news, but sentiment reversed quickly after the September employment report. The U.S. economy added 119,000 jobs, more than double the forecast of 50,000, and initial jobl...

Senator John Fetterman and Bill Maher just said what most politicians won’t: the far-left’s politics of division are creating resentment, hostility, and tribalism. In this quick breakdown, Elliot Omanson explains why group-based politics inevitably backfires — and why Fetterman’s comments are less “courage” and more basic human psychology. Fetterman described the far-left as “the most poisonous,” while Maher echoed similar frustra...

Zohran Mamdani was just elected mayor of New York City — and we think it marks the culmination of everything wrong with the Democrat Party. In this week’s episode, we break down what Mamdani’s win really means for NYC: rent freezes, “free housing,” government-run grocery stores, higher taxes, and a complete misunderstanding of what freedom actually is. We get into FDR’s forgotten “Second Bill of Rights,” how the left twists the id...

November is off to a sluggish start for stocks, with all three major indices finishing the first week of the month in the red. If October was the party, then November has been the hangover. Market sentiment has been weighed down by several factors: ongoing concerns about a potential government shutdown, limited fresh economic data, and renewed uncertainty about whether the Fed will deliver another rate cut in December. According ...

It’s been a strong week for markets, with all three major U.S. indexes on pace to finish up more than 1%. The rally has been fueled by a solid start to Q3 earnings season, where roughly 84% of companies have beaten Wall Street expectations so far — a sign of continued corporate resilience despite macro uncertainty. Tesla (TSLA) was the first of the “Magnificent 7” to report, missing earnings by nearly 10% but posting record revenu...

This week’s episode breaks down one of the most ridiculous outrage cycles yet — the “No Kings” protests and the media’s obsession with Trump’s White House ballroom. We look at how the outrage machine keeps spinning: AI-generated clips, performative protests, and constant double standards that define today’s politics. Elliot even shares his new op-ed, “The Hypocrisy Presidency: When Outrage Only Runs One Way,” calling out how both ...

Stock markets reached new all-time highs earlier this week but declined sharply today following China’s announcement of new restrictions on the export of rare earth materials and related technologies. In response, President Trump threatened a significant increase in tariffs on Chinese products. Currently, tariffs on Chinese imports stand at 30% under the existing trade truce between the U.S. and China. This sudden escalation in tr...

Trevor Lawrence memes, Chiefs heartbreak, and the truth about America’s healthcare fight. Trevor Lawrence was caught picking his nose on the sidelines just minutes before driving down the field on the Chiefs’ defense — capping it off with a game-winning touchdown rush after tripping twice. Then we pivot to politics. The government shutdown drags on, largely over disagreements about healthcare spending. The left wants to reinstate...

The stock market continues its strong run in 2025, with all major indices reaching new all-time highs this week. Year-to-date, the S&P 500 is nearly 15%, while the Nasdaq 100 has gained 18%. The federal government’s fiscal year ended Tuesday night without a budget agreement, triggering a government shutdown on Wednesday. Historically, shutdowns have had minimal lasting impact on markets, with stocks often rising slightly durin...

Charlie Kirk’s death sent shockwaves through the nation — and exposed just how far media narratives and hate-fueled echo chambers have gone. In this episode of The Elliot Omanson Show, we break down the media spin, the rise of political violence, and why so many are being radicalized instead of reasoned with.

We also explore how Charlie’s message continues to spark faith, strength, and resilience in a generation starving for truth.

Ukrainian immigrant Iryna Zarutska was brutally murdered in a New York subway by a man with 14 prior arrests — and the media barely reacted. Elliot Omanson and Nathaniel Vossman break down what happened, why it ignited public outrage, and what it reveals about America’s collapsing justice system. They also react to viral clips from Rosie O’Donnell, Don Lemon, and Jasmine Crockett — exploring how cultural chaos, soft-on-crime polici...

Trump was trending this weekend for an odd reason: conspiracies about his health — with some even claiming he was dead. Those rumors collapsed on Tuesday when Trump held a press conference from the Oval Office. The irony? Many of the same voices questioning Trump’s health are the ones who insisted Biden was fit to serve as president. Rosie O’Donnell was forced to issue an “apology” after falsely labeling the Minneapolis Catholic s...

Trump has fired Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, sparking questions about the Fed’s future and U.S. economic policy. We also cover Cracker Barrel’s failed rebrand and why the company returned to its original logo, along with reflections on the tragic Minneapolis Catholic school shooting that occurred yesterday. This episode delivers direct, unfiltered takes on the week’s most important stories—where politics, business, and cult...

The NFL has gone FULL woke — from male cheerleaders to end-zone slogans — and fans are fed up. With the NFL season just around the corner, excitement is building. Sundays mean food, beer, and football — both real and fantasy. But while fans gear up, the NFL continues to evolve into a woke league. Recently, the Vikings made headlines for including male cheerleaders in traditionally female roles — but they weren’t the first. The LA...

Violent crime in Washington, DC is near 30-year lows — but stubbornly high homicide rates keep it among the most dangerous U.S. cities. Is President Trump right or wrong to call in the National Guard? The media says no, but we’re not so sure.

Trump also made waves by pushing for a new U.S. Census — unusual outside the 10-year cycle — and seeking to exclude illegal immigrants from the count. Supporters call it common sense, critic...
