Episode #278 Inside New Mexico with Steve Pearce

Former New Mexico Congressman Steve Pearce and radio host Derek Underhill share perspectives with young New Mexicans Danielle Hernandez, & Denice Sanchez on the biggest local and national headlines every week!

Discussed in this week's show:

• Things kick off by exposing the Democrats’ sneaky push for open primaries. Steve warns it’s a power grab that could let Democrats hijack Republican nominations—handpicking weak candidates to rig the game. Could this bill spell the end of GOP control in New Mexico?

  
  

• Then Freshman Rep. Elaine Sena Cortez joins the show to talk about her fight for a bill protecting women’s sports from being forced to be shared with biological men. With a young athlete sharing her chilling story of a brain injury from playing against a biological male opponent, the stakes couldn’t be higher—yet the Democrat majority crushed it. What’s next for our daughters?

  
  

• Then! Senate Minority Leader William Sharer joins the show to reveal the legislative chaos in Santa Fe. From a doomed EV mandate that could kill local car dealerships to a progressive cash grab with sky-high minimum wages and corporate taxes, he’s sounding the alarm. With a budget up 73% under MLG, where’s the payoff—less crime, better roads, smarter kids? You don't want to miss what he has to say.

  
  

• The bombshells keep dropping as Steve Danielle tackle Deb Haaland’s bid for governor. Her oil-killing record as Interior Secretary could gut New Mexico’s economy—jobs lost, billions gone. Is she Kamala 2.0?

  
  

• And what’s with the AG’s stunt suing Trump and Musk over DOGE while ignoring real crime in our streets?

  
  

• Finally, Trump’s immigration crackdown heats up. Will our governor face jail for defiance? Steve says lawsuits, not cuffs, are coming—but he’s got no mercy for DOJ and FBI insiders leaking ICE raid plans to protect gangs. Tune in to unravel the corruption, the battles, and the future of our state!
