Summary

Mark Koernke hosted the afternoon Intelligence Report on June 5, 2007, featuring an extended interview with Paul Toppi of the patriotic rock band Poker Face. The discussion covered the band's three politically charged albums, their grassroots approach to music distribution outside the corporate music industry, and their upcoming performances. Koernke and Toppi explored themes including the role of music as a tool for awakening Americans to constitutional principles, the suppression of patriotic messaging by mainstream media and record labels, illegal immigration policy, hemp-based fuel alternatives, the Security and Prosperity Partnership creating a de facto North American union, and the satanic agenda of global elites. The conversation emphasized self-sufficiency, preparedness, and resistance to what they characterized as socialist consolidation of power.
