A Washington, D.C.-based sports radio host was fired on Saturday following comments he made about a female TV reporter who was covering the Washington Commanders. Don Geronimo, whose real name is Michael Sorce, made the comments toward WUSA9 reporter Sharla McBride. The remarks led to the Commanders barring iHeartMedia – the parent company of WBIG Radio – from the team’s training camp facilities in Ashburn, Virginia, on Friday. "Hey look, Barbie's here. Hi, Barbie girl," Geronimo shouted toward McBride while on air on Thursday. "I'm guessing she's a cheerleader." Geronimo was with co-host Crash Young when the remarks were made....

Chris Plante and his “THE RIGHT SQUAD” are the most interesting, informative and funny group of talking heads in the world! It’s a big claim. But it’s true! The show airs weekdays on Newsmax at 9:00 PM. This is the link to past shows and can serve as a link for you to use to watch future shows either live or after they're taped. Thanks!

Hello to all WMAL Fans! I hope you're all doing well. As many of you know, The Planteman has a new show on NEWSMAX weeknights at 8:00 PM. If any of you have watched it, please comment and/or critique below. The show was working out some 'kinks' the other day - audio and cadence - but we'd like to see what you like or don't like. I heard from Chris last night, who said that the show "is a work in progress, and progress was made today." All the best to everyone -- and I will definitely inform the group...

I was restricted by Facebook for 30 days because I posted on a WMAL group page that "I love Chris Plante's accent of Joseph Goebbels. I could hear it for hours!" They removed my comment and restricted my account. FROM WMAL: "In hour 2, Chris talks to show super-fan Silvie in Waldorf who was sent to Facebook jail for naming an impression that she enjoys hearing Chris perform, and they discuss information dominance and the left. Also, Chris loves a story about Lesbians and Trans people, because now if you're a lesbian who won't sleep with men you're an anti...

A ‘conservative’ radio station caves to the mob. I am no stranger to cancel culture — or what we know more commonly (and accurately, in my opinion) as censorship. When I was one of a handful of conservatives on a liberal college campus, my peers on the left reported me to our resident advisor for “creating an unsafe environment” and demanded the administration step in to cancel speaker events I hosted through the College Republicans. They later would ask the university to revoke my degree. Throughout my six years as a political journalist and commentator, left-wing activists have tried every...

Dan Bongino has what he describes as a pretty rough case of Covid. He was double vaccinated due to his cancer. He doesn't believe the vaccine helped much, credits monoclonal antibodies for recovery so far. This is the 2nd host in a row this morning on WMAL to announce they have Covid. Chris Plante who precedes Bongino on WMAL also announced he has Covid but described his case as mild.

DC Police Founder and Board Chair Don Blake discusses the project and its importance with WMAL's Barbara Britt.

I met up with The Planteman, Chris Plante, last weekend and he’s extremely busy with his weekly morning show, which has expanded to several US markets over the years and is heard all over the world via the Internet as well as the WMAL website. Some of the countries he’s heard at in real time are Sweden, Norway, Italy, Israel, Australia and many more. We chatted for a while and he was very appreciative of all of the support that the hardcore WMAL listeners have given him over the years, as well as Freepers who were a constant force at...

WMAL is the #1 radio station in the DC market for the first time in decades! Take a look at the Nielsen radio ratings for April 2020! (And many in media have said in the past that a conservative news talk station would NEVER make it in a city and region like Washington, DC!) Congratulations to WMAL -- Mary Walter, Vince Cogliniese, Larry O'Connor, Chris Plante, Rush Limbaugh, Mark Levin, Ben Shapiro, John Batchelor.

The annual WMAL Free Speech Forum was held last night at the Birchmere in Alexandria, VA. WMAL's Larry O'Connor, Vince Coglaniese and Mary Walter were there, but the stars of the show were Mark Levin and Chris Plante. I cannot begin to tell you how much they complement each other -- their comedic cadence and timing is spectacular. I sat about 10 feet away from Levin and he was just plain AMAZING! They chronologically analyzed Democrats, the media, Never Trumpers and everything in between. They were funny throughout. It was brilliant. Enclosed please find a short Facebook video of the...

As many of you already know, CNN’s Chris Cuomo erupted at a man who apparently called him “Fredo,” in a video that went viral Monday night. The encounter between Cuomo and the man happened at a Shelter Island bar on Sunday. “Punk-ass bitches from the right call me Fredo,” Cuomo told the man. “My name is Chris Cuomo. I’m an anchor on CNN. Fredo is from The Godfather. They use it as an Italian aspersion. Any of you Italian?” he continued. “It’s an insult to your f****** people. It’s like the N-word for us.” They went back and forth, and...

On The Chris Plante Show today on WMAL Radio, sub Chris Stigall took a call from Victor of Silver Spring, longtime WMAL listener, who gave an acronym for SQUAD: Socialist Queens Unmasking All Democrats. Brilliant, no?

Smith in middays. The AMer will continue to carry the Washington Redskins, along with its FM sister.

Hold onto your hats. At last, we are on the verge of getting to the bottom of the weaponization of the nation’s top law enforcement and spy agencies to spy on political opponents, and it is far bigger than obtaining bogus FISA Court warrants to spy on Carter Page. Barack Obama’s minions have been spying on his political opponents since before his 2012 re-election, and the entire Russiagate hoax was an effort to cover-up that ongoing spying. As I have stated before, the best sources for understanding the unfolding of the biggest political scandal in American history are DC super-lawyers...
