Background

Patriot.TV was founded in 2021 and is based in Venice, Florida. Its parent company, Conservative Broadcast Media & Journalism, Inc., lists a Georgia address and has publicly traded shares. JD Rucker became President and COO in mid-2025, and the network has said it expanded its lineup and audience under his leadership. Its programming includes The Wayne Dupree Show, Drew Berquist's show, Wayne Allyn Root's 'WAR Zone', The Schaftlein Report, and The JD Rucker Show. It also distributes content through The Gateway Pundit and Rumble. CBMJ acquired 'The Conservative Playbook' and launched a related podcast aimed at midterm voters and activists. In February 2026, host Mark Schaftlein said on air that the Trump administration needed a 'course correction' to avoid big midterm losses, which shows the criticism that does appear is from inside the movement. The network describes itself as 'America's fastest-growing conservative news outlet,' but that is a self-description and its audience size was not independently verified for this profile. Its content is commentary and opinion-driven, so readers should treat it as advocacy-oriented media rather than traditional straight news reporting.
