I Posted a Prayer Photo… Then Got Death Threats | Jordan Sarmiento | DSH #1841

In this episode of The Digital Social Hour, Jordan Sarmiento, founder of America First Healthcare, opens up about losing his music career during COVID, nearly dying in the hospital, getting hit with a $100,000 medical bill, and how that experience led him to build one of the fastest-growing conservative-aligned healthcare companies in the country. Jordan shares what it was like getting canceled in Los Angeles for wearing a MAGA hat, being kicked out of restaurants during vaccine mandates, and watching the political divide explode in real time. He also breaks down his recent trip to Israel, the backlash he faced just for posting a photo praying in Shiloh, and why he believes the MAGA movement is being divided from within. 🎯 What You’ll Learn • 💰 How Jordan scaled to 25,000 clients in 2 years • 🏥 What really happens inside the healthcare billing system • 🚫 What it’s like being canceled for political beliefs • 🧠 How propaganda shapes both the left and the right • 🇮🇱 The Israel debate dividing the MAGA movement • 📊 Why foreign aid is more complicated than headlines suggest • ⚖️ The real meaning of “America First” Chapters (With Timestamps) 0:00 — Backlash for posting a prayer photo in Israel 0:25 — Meeting Alex Hormozi & scaling mindset 4:28 — 25,000 clients in 2 years (America First Healthcare growth) 9:46 — Losing money in crypto & sports cards 12:58 — COVID, mandates & getting canceled in LA 21:24 — Hospitalized, near ventilator, $100K medical bill 27:43 — Launching America First Healthcare 30:53 — Can you be America First and pro-Israel? 39:07 — Media propaganda & division on the right 56:47 — Is America becoming a third-world country? 🎙️ APPLY OR CONNECT 👉 Interested in being a guest?
