Maryland Is Collapsing - A Marine’s Fight To Save It

A wife who couldn't open a laundromat because the state made it impossible. Now Chris Burnett is running for Congress in one of the toughest districts in the country — Maryland's 6th — against two opponents worth hundreds of millions of dollars. David Rutherford sits down with Burnett to break down what's actually happening in Maryland: a $1.5 billion state deficit, 25,000 federal jobs lost to DOGE, an economy built entirely on government dependency, and a regulatory environment that kills small business before it starts. Burnett lays out his "innovation corridor" plan — aligning federal highway funds with data center development, small modular nuclear reactors, AI and quantum research, and advanced manufacturing along the I-270 to I-68 corridor. They also go deep on Iran. Burnett spent his career watching Iranian proxies operate across the Middle East. His take: this military action is 47 years overdue, no boots on the ground, degrade the IRGC, open the Strait of Hormuz, and let the Iranian people determine their own future. ✅ Sponsors: ☕️ Black Rifle Coffee: https://www.blackriflecoffee.com/ 🍊 Revival Nutrition: https://revivalnutrition.com/collections/rutherford Use promo code DAVID for 20% off 🏫 Get coaching by David Rutherford: https://www.froglogicinstitute.com/ 📕 Get David's novel, The Poet Warrior: https://www.ballastbooks.com/ballast-bookstore/the-poet-warrior 📰 Sign up for David's newsletter for free coaching tips, updates, and more: https://davidrutherfordletter.substack.com/ 🎧 Listen To The Podcast: ➡️ Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-david-rutherford-show/id1807090449 ➡️ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4p4wYEiUmm0PD79D5GZAV4?si=l-rPJBJORPi9IGB1eE3_pw ➡️ iHeart Radio: https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-the-david-rutherford-show-271920338?cmp=ios_share&sc=ios_social_share&pr=false&autoplay=true 📲 Follow us on
