The Pete Kaliner Show

While admittedly not quite as important as canceling Mr. Potato Head, the US Senate passed a $1.9 trillion "COVID relief" bill that represents the largest expansion of the American welfare state since President Lyndon Johnson's Great Society. As predicted, the Democrats are running as far left as fast as they can now they have control of the House, Senate, and Presidency.

I joined KC O'Dea on his morning show in Raleigh & Greensboro on Friday - to discuss his plans for re-entry to America. Will he need a Joe Biden T-shirt? Will he have to undergo the COVID butt swab? Plus, the flip-flopping NC Democratic Senators who chose loyalty to the Governor over kids' education.

I joined Mark Starling on his morning show on WWNC in Asheville on Wednesday to discuss the NC Senate's failed attempt to override the Governor's veto of that school re-opening bill. In doing so, we put on a master class in professional segueing. Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/petekalinershow See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I joined Joe Catenacci on his radio show on Wilmington's Big Talker Tuesday morning to discuss BBQ, the NC Senate's failure to override Gov.

No, North Carolina's 11th District is not gerrymandered to ensure Republicans win. It's just that a lot of Republican voters live in the area surrounding far-left Asheville. But the constant accusation of "gerrymandering" sounds a lot like the constant accusation of "Nazi"... which sounds a lot like the storyline in the Alfred Hitchcock episode titled "Revenge." Also, the City of Asheville starts its reparations initiative. The City also wants to state app...

After months of inaction and weeks of blocking similar efforts, NC Gov. Cooper's administration realizes it CAN make schools follow safety guidelines as they re-open! Also, another lawsuit by leftists gets settled and the Democratic administration agrees to turn 3,500 prisoners loose over the next 6 months. This includes violent offenders as well as peaceful offenders. Plus, leftists are SUPER excited about Jasmine Beach-Ferrara announcing her candidacy fo...

NC Democratic Senator Ben Clark cosponsored legislation to force school districts to offer in-person instruction. The Democratic Governor vetoed that bill. The state Senate attempted to override the veto, but Sen. Clark was absent. His absence resulted in the failure of the override vote. So, the Republican leader of the Senate says they'll try a re-vote... on a day when it's more convenient to Sen. Clark. Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/petekali...

The North Carolina Senate fails to override Gov. Roy Cooper's veto of the school re-opening bill - after one of the Democratic sponsors of the bill goes AWOL and another changes his vote because Cooper asked him to. NC writer & longtime journalist Rick Henderson joins me to discuss.

After waiting nine days, NC Governor Roy Cooper issued a veto late on Friday -- blocking a bill that would've forced school districts to offer an option of in-person instruction. The teachers union celebrated the move, although polling shows about 3 out of 4 North Carolinians want schools re-opened. Plus, we're marking a special anniversary today!

I joined KC O'Dea on his morning show in Raleigh & Greensboro to discuss NC Gov. Roy Cooper's easing of restrictions on bars (after his lawyers performed so poorly in court trying to defend it).
