The White House Correspondents' Dinner last weekend became the site of the third failed attempt to assassinate President Donald Trump. “I remember the feeling was very similar to when it was clear that the House had been invaded on January 6, 2021,” Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., who was in attendance, tells The Intercept Briefing. “Everybody was afraid that somebody had come in with an AR-15 or something like that.”This week on the podcast, host Akela Lacy speaks to Raskin about his experience at the dinner and later being asked by CNN's Dana Bash about whether he's thinking twice about his “heated rhetoric” toward Trump. “It was curious that, in the wake of this terrible episode, that she would try to equate the way that Democrats talk and the way that President Trump talks,” says Raskin. “He calls people crazy, insane. He calls people evil, wicked. He will buttonhole reporters and tell them that they're stupid, they're ugly. ... But we try to keep it at the level of policies and their actions.” Some examples, which Raskin discusses, is his forthcoming investigation into Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner's role in the administration and conflicts of interest, and his fight in Congress to stop the reauthorization of warrantless surveillance on Americans.After this latest assassination attempt on Trump's life, claims that it was staged flooded the internet, from comments section to social media posts to videos of influencers dissecting alleged evidence.“We are so conditioned to distrust what we are being told by authorities that people immediately began concocting conspiracy theories about it even before we even knew what had happened. Whether it was a shooting or just dishes breaking,” says journalist Mike Rothschild. He's the author of “The Storm is Upon Us,” the first complete book on the QAnon conspiracy movement, and more recently, a 200-year history of conspiracy theories called “Jewish Space Lasers.”Rothschild joins Lacy to unpack the growing world of conspiracy theories that question whether the multiple assassination attempts against Trump were staged. They also dive into other conspiracy theories currently capturing the public imagination, such as the dead and missing scientists and a wildfire in Georgia. “This is one of our more fun and disturbing interviews,” says Lacy.For more, listen to the full conversation of The Intercept Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you listen.Keep our investigations free and fearless at theintercept.com/join.

Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling strikes down racial gerrymandering, giving Republicans 12 new seats. Obama tweets fury as Democrats lose Louisiana's "snake district." Team debates if midterms even matter now. GOP celebrates while Dems scramble for strategy in massive power shift.
Public polls are showing that Democrats now have the advantage over Republicans on the economy, a milestone. Strikingly, Politico reports that a newly-leaked memo from a GOP-aligned group actually confirms the same thing. The memo warns that the group's internal polling and research “show that for the first time, Democrats are more trusted on the economy and inflation.” It also warns that Republicans are in serious danger of losing the Senate, and strongly urges Republicans to overhaul their economic messaging in a big way. That is an absolute fiasco for Trump: It's his economy that is putting the GOP in such grave danger. Indeed, this comes as inflation just spiked again. We talked to New Republic staff writer Monica Potts, who's been doing good reporting on how ordinary Americans are experiencing the economy. We discuss why the GOP midterm panic is such a damning indictment of Trump, why Democrats leading on the issue is a sea change, and how they can seize control over our economic debates in a more ambitious way.

Both Stone and Comey were charged with similar crimes of lying under oath.

Should President Trump wear a bulletproof vest, considering all the threats against him lately? Yesterday, Democrats pressed Secretary of War Pete Hegseth about accusations of insider trading and secret deals, but there's no solid proof behind these claims. Hegseth stood by the administration's decision to go to war with Iran over concerns about nuclear weapons. Mark takes your calls! Mark interviews Fox News legal analyst Greg Jarrett. Greg and Mark debate the bizarre story about James Comey and some seashells, and how it might tie into talk of an indictment. Greg thinks Comey has a habit of acting like there's trouble around Trump when there really isn't. He also suggests that rumors about Comey's indictment could be linked to his book sales. Greg points out that the First Amendment doesn't protect threats against the President, which could make things interesting for Comey in court.

Chuck Schumer is dealing with internal blowback from some Democrats as key midterm battles heat up. Meanwhile, the Iran war hits the 60-day mark with Americans still feeling the pain at the pump, inflation continues to climb, and Congress heads out for recess without taking action on the War Powers Resolution. Playbook's Adam Wren and Megan Messerly break down party tensions, the economic pressure, and what it all could mean heading into the midterms.
This episode is presented by Create A Video – After the former Maine Governor dropped out of the Democrat primary for US Senate, the nomination will go a nepo rich kid with a Nazi tattoo, praised Hamas, amplified a neo-Nazi Holocaust denier, said women bear responsibility for being raped if they drink, and trained with a socialist gun club. This is what the Democrats prefer in their primaries and it appears there is no off-ramp for a party that is captured by the oppresser-oppressed mindset.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-pete-kaliner-show--6946691/support.Subscribe to the podcast All the links to Pete's Prep are free!Get exclusive content here!Media Bias Check: GroundNews promo code!Advertising and Booking inquiries: Pete@ThePeteKalinerShow.com
Many of Colorado's Democratic lawmakers came into this legislative session determined to push back against the Trump administration, especially on the president's aggressive immigration enforcement tactics. They introduced proposals to ban state and local law enforcement from concealing their identity in most situations and to allow Coloradans to sue federal agents who violate their rights. But not all Democrats are on board with these ideas — worried they may harm legitimate law enforcement efforts and fail to keep the community safer. And the legislation raises big questions about the limits of state authority when it comes to how federal immigration agents behave within Colorado's borders.CPR's Bente Birkeland, The Colorado Sun's Taylor Dolven and The Denver Post's Seth Klamann discuss the different bills, the potential legal challenges and the politics surrounding this issue, at a time when the stakes feel like they couldn't be higher. Catch up on the latest coverage: The Denver Post: Judge again blocks Gov. Jared Polis from directing state officials to comply with an ICE subpoena The Denver Post: Federal judge criticizes ICE agents at Denver hearing for not knowing about earlier order limiting arrests The Colorado Sun: Colorado lawmakers reject bill that would have required police to intervene when ICE agents use excessive force The Denver Post: Thousands of immigrants in Colorado were arrested and deported during Trump's first year The Colorado Sun: As some Democratic governors lead on ICE pushback, Jared Polis is taking a hands-off approach The Colorado Sun: Democratic lawmakers plan package of bills to further regulate federal immigration enforcement in Colorado Denverite: What we saw from inside ICE's raid at Aurora's Edge apartments Purplish is produced by CPR News and the Capitol News Alliance, a collaboration between KUNC News, Colorado Public Radio, Rocky Mountain PBS, and The Colorado Sun, and shared with Rocky Mountain Community Radio and other news organizations across the state.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, the global and especially American situation is very dark, grave, and worsening daily. Europe has fallen to a jihadi Islamist crusade while unprecedented antisemitism targets Jews walking the streets in the U.S. while every synagogue spends fortunes on security. The Democrat Party no longer offers support to Jews, as it has been taken over and devoured by Islamists and Marxists who are welcome there. Also, the Supreme Court issued a major decision upholding that the Voting Rights Act of 1965 was never intended to allow creation of congressional districts based on race; it aimed instead to end race-based segregation in the South. The ruling reaffirms that districts cannot be drawn with racial intent to discriminate or guarantee outcomes, requiring actual evidence of intent to block minorities' opportunity to elect candidates of their choice rather than mere allegations. Democrats have misused the Act to advance their party by creating race-conscious districts, treating certain racial groups as reliable voters and fearing losses in majority-white areas, contrary to the Act's original colorblind aim. Later, Rep Byron Donalds calls in and reports that Gov Ron DeSantis submitted a new congressional map, which the legislature passed and the governor plans to sign. This is a strong reflection of the Florida's political framework. He also explains that the Democrat Party are a bunch of limousine liberals. They love everything being handed to them, but they do not have an appreciation for the market system and for free enterprise. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

What happens when the leader of the free world decides the best place for diplomacy is a late-night, ALL-CAPS social media spiral? Stephanie Miller breaks down the White House's new "press-first, logic-later" strategy and finding the dark humor in the high-stakes chaos. She also wades into the absolute absurdity of James Comey's "seashell indictment"—a legal saga so bizarre it makes the last decade of politics look like a calm day at the beach. She then pulls back the curtain on the Supreme Court's recent hits to the Voting Rights Act and discusses why expanding the bench isn't just a progressive pipe dream anymore—it's a survival tactic for racial equality and a necessary check on a MAGA majority that has clearly traded their robes for jerseys.

We've been interviewing candidates running against Ritchie Torres in NY's 15th district for about a year now, and today we've collected the final infinity stone in the set. Jose Vega is perhaps best known for viral videos in which he confronts politicians and journalists about their commitment to war and lack of ideological courage, but now he's running to unseat the House's most unabashed Zionist Representative from the Bronx. As the left considers the best strategy to unseat Torres, should they consider the young upstart who has no qualms being maximally adversarial to Democrats over the left-establisment pick Michael Blake, who we interviewed last week? Is running on the Democratic ballot line a strategic win given it granted him access to the debates? What did he make of some subtle antipathy from Blake during last week's interview, and what is he hearing from Bronx residents on the ground? Also, what's the deal with Lyndon Larouche?

Iran is expected to submit a revised peace proposal soon, sources say, and President Trump and Russian President Vladimir discussed the Iran ceasefire and other topics in a 90-minute phone call. The President told reporters Putin said he'd “like to be involved” in helping settle the issue of Iranian nuclear enrichment. Meanwhile, on Capitol Hill, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth sparred with Democrats on the House Armed Services Committee in his first testimony since the war began, describing lawmakers who criticize the effort as “the biggest adversary.” Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Executive Editor Natalie Orpett and Contributing Editors Ariane Tabatabai and Joel Braunold, to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including:“The Art of the Heel.” As it approaches the 60-day mark, the war of Iran appears to have entered the “war of attrition” stage. The Strait of Hormuz remains closed by both Iran and the United States, as each side waits to see if the other will capitulate first. President Trump recently called off peace talks in Islamabad, in part because of purported internal disarray on the part of Iran—a perhaps unsurprising consequence of a two-month campaign of regime change. Meanwhile, the White House appears to have successfully pushed for and and then extended a ceasefire in the related theater of Lebanon, but it is already under strain from ongoing Israeli strikes and Hezbollah's ensuing refusal to disarm. What should we make of this new equilibrium? And does it suggest that there is any way out of the current morass in the near future?“Royally Falked.” King Charles is in the United States this week for the first state visit by a British monarch since Queen Elizabeth in 2007. But the Trump administration's latest round of antics toward the United Kingdom and other NATO allies may overshadow the trip. Over the weekend, Reuters reported that an internal Pentagon email suggested that the administration should explore withdrawing U.S. recognition of British control over the Falkland Islands and suspending Spain from NATO due to their refusal to join U.S.-Israeli combat operations against Iran. Other consequences may yet be in the offing. How seriously should we take these threats from the Pentagon? And how close are we to a permanent rupture in the United States's preeminent alliance?“Ballroom Blitz.” On Saturday night, President Trump was the target of a third assassination attempt since the 2024 campaign. This time, a California teacher plotted to target Trump and his senior advisers at the annual White House Correspondents' Association Dinner. In response, the administration quickly blamed Democrats for the heated, sometimes violent rhetoric they use in criticizing Trump and focused its attention on pressuring a federal court to end a civil case challenging the construction of the new White House ballroom, citing security concerns. What were some of our thoughts about this past weekend's events?In object lessons, Ari is taking control of the narrative with Split Fiction for the Switch 2. Natalie is taking herself out for a treat to Boulangerie Saint Georges near Eastern Market. Scott is taking a break from his own podcast to appreciate Iran: The Latest from The Telegraph.

Coast Guard Bases Losing Power Due to Shutdown. Fed's Powell Refuses to Leave. Voting Rights Act Slammed by SCOTUS. Mills Suspends Senate Campaign in Maine. Navy FB Player Lives the Dream with Steelers. The rain has cleared and we can see what the Iran war actually cost. In this solo episode, Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the brutal arithmetic: $25 billion spent. 13 American soldiers killed. Hundreds wounded. Oil at $125 a barrel and gas at $4.30 a gallon — up 27 cents in a week. The Strait of Hormuz still not secured. The Iranian regime still in power. The enriched uranium still unaccounted for. After yesterday's testimony from Secretary Hegseth and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs Caine, the spin is gone — and the Pentagon wants $1.5 trillion more. Paul lays out why working Americans are paying the price for a war their leaders can't honestly defend. Paul also takes apart Trump's state dinner for King Charles — 10 American billionaires, six Fox News hosts, zero Democrats — and calls out Trump, Hegseth, and Vance for siding with Putin while Zelensky and Macron call it like it is. There's hope in the mix too: a powerful breakdown of Heidenreich's path from the Naval Academy to a Marine Corps commission to the NFL draft, the kind of leadership that gives this country a future.

Finally, and you could tell Justice Thomas has been waiting for this moment for 30 years, the Supreme Court ruled that gerrymandering districts just for black people is racist. Republicans could gain 12 seats from this decision, but more importantly, it leads us away from being a racist society.

Democrats and Republicans on one of the House committees that oversees the Medicare program had strong words about high hospital pricing at a hearing on Capitol Hill this week, but it remains unclear whether the reality will match their rhetoric when it comes to reining in those prices. Meanwhile, some good health policy news: A study found the 988 suicide prevention hotline reduced suicides significantly in its first two years of operation. Shefali Luthra of The 19th, Rachel Roubein of The Washington Post, and Joanne Kenen of the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and Politico Magazine join KFF Health News' Julie Rovner to discuss these stories and more. Plus, for “extra credit,” the panelists share their favorite health policy stories of the week that they think you should read, too. Julie Rovner: The New York Times' “While Advising Kennedy, Top Aide Had More Than $25 Million Stake in Wellness Company,” by Christina Jewett and Benjamin Mueller. Joanne Kenen: ProPublica's “Unfounded Health Concerns Are Powering a Solar Backlash,” by Anna Clark. Rachel Roubein: KFF Health News' “Big Companies Position Themselves for Payday from $50B Federal Rural Health Fund,” by Sarah Jane Tribble. Shefali Luthra: The Atlantic and KFF Health News' “A ‘Barbaric' Problem in American Hospitals Is Only Getting Bigger,” by Elisabeth Rosenthal.
Secretary of War Pete Hegseth walked into a combative hearing and didn’t back down. Instead of absorbing attacks from Democrat lawmakers, he went on offense, calling out rhetoric he says weakens America on the world stage. In a tense back-and-forth, Hegseth made it clear: projecting doubt about U.S. strength only empowers our enemies. But the bigger moment? He exposed what he framed as a troubling mindset—members of Congress more focused on tearing down America than standing up for it. We break down the sharpest exchanges and what this clash reveals about the fight over America’s future.

Donald Trump has survived another assassination attempt from an alleged deranged progressive. Thankfully, Cole Allen was never able to get a clear shot at the president, but the allegation that another radical leftist managed to smuggle a long gun into the event site should alarm everyone. Despite multiple assassination attempts against Trump's life and the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk, progressives have only intensified their rhetoric, including open calls for violence. Democrats are not interested in turning down the temperature or abandoning political violence; they are only disappointed that the “lone wolves” they inspired have been unsuccessful. Progressives see political violence as their birthright and will not stop deploying it unless they are stopped with immediate and severe consequences.

Josh is joined by Shannon Bray, a Libertarian candidate for Senate in North Carolina and author of Liberty Unleashed, for a wide-ranging conversation about taxes, Social Security, education, war, and why so many voters feel politically homeless. Shannon explains how he went from government work and frustration with both major parties to running for office as a Libertarian. The conversation digs into: Why a consumption tax gives people more control than hidden taxes Why Social Security feels like a broken contract How schools fail to teach basic financial literacy Why Shannon's military background changed the way he thinks about war They also talk about the two-party illusion, independents walking away from Republicans and Democrats, and how libertarians can start conversations without watering down the message.

When President Trump sent troops into Iran, he did so without a green light from Congress. Now he faces a deadline on May 1 to either end the war in Iran or secure official approval from Congress. That timeline is laid out under the War Powers Resolution, a law that allows presidents to start wars without congressional approval. Democrats in Congress have tried and failed to pass multiple resolutions to halt the war. Meanwhile, the war is losing support from Republican lawmakers, who have not proposed a vote to approve it. We talk about the war in Iran, lawmakers' efforts to stop it so far, and whether the Trump administration is feeling any pressure from the 60-day deadline. Guests: Harold Hongju Koh, professor of international law, Yale Law School; legal advisor to the U.S. Department of State from 2009-2013 Mark DeSaulnier, U.S. Congressman representing California's 10th district (the East Bay) Robert Jimison, congressional reporter covering foreign policy, defense and national security issues, The New York Times Elisa Ewers, senior fellow, Council on Foreign Relations Learn more about your ad choices.
