What was it like to work inside Elon Musk's DOGE? The cost-cutting initiative promised transparency, but most of its actions have been shrouded in secrecy.For months, there were reports of software engineers and Trump loyalists entering agencies and accessing sensitive data. DOGE also helped the Trump administration lay off thousands of government workers. NPR reporters have been trying for months to get anyone from DOGE to talk on the record. Now, Sahil Lavingia, a former DOGE staffer assigned to the Department of Veteran Affairs, is speaking. Today, what drew Sahil to DOGE and what he learned about the inner workings, in a way we've never heard before.For more on DOGE and the federal workforce: - The last time we shrank the federal workforce - Can... we still trust the monthly jobs report? - Can the Federal Reserve stay independent?This episode was hosted by Kenny Malone and Bobby Allyn.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, President Trump is neither an isolationist nor an appeaser, unlike critics like Chatsworth Osborne Jr. (Tucker Carlson), who push confused ideologies. Trump transformed the Republican Party, but he and his supporters reject isolationism, which would mean yielding to Iran's terrorist regime that threatens the U.S. and its allies. Pacifist and unilateral disarmament policies, particularly opposing Israel's moves against Iran's nuclear program, are to be condemned. What is the isolationist's plan to deal with Iran? They don't have one. Also, Daily Wire's Ben Shapiro calls in to address criticisms from Isolationists claiming to represent the MAGA movement, who oppose U.S. involvement in Israel's conflict with Iran. These groups misrepresent MAGA, as Trump has consistently opposed the Iran nuclear deal (JCPOA), criticized Iran's ballistic missile program, and supported Israel and Saudi Arabia against Iranian aggression. Most Americans, especially Republicans, support Israel's actions against Iran. Later, WABC's Sid Rosenberg called in to express his strong support for Israel's military actions against Iran, crediting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's leadership and asserting that Trump gave the "green light" for the operation. Rosenberg recounted a conversation with Trump two months prior, where he suggested Iran needed to "feel pain," and now views Israel's strikes as a response to Iran's non-compliance with a 60-day deadline. The Trump-Netanyahu partnership is a historic "one-two punch" for the U.S. and Israel. Afterward, Ambassador Michael Leiter calls in with an update on Israel's strike on Iran. He reports that Israel has eliminated key IRGC leadership. The operation also destroyed much of Iran's military leadership, ground-to-air defenses, the Natanz uranium enrichment plant, and a nuclear fuel conversion center, significantly disrupting Iran's nuclear weapons program.

For the first time in two decades, the Democratic Party has found itself without a clear party leader or even an obvious frontrunner. Angry and adrift, politicians and voters are clashing over how to fight back. They're also grappling with an uncomfortable new reality: The places that shifted hardest away from Democrats last fall were the kinds of communities that formed the backbone of the Democratic coalition for years—working-class, nonwhite, and heavily immigrant areas of blue cities and states. Now the battle for the party's future and reckoning over its recent past is coming to a head in New York City, where support for Democrats has cratered among Latino and Asian voters. In one of the first big tests of the party's direction after Donald Trump's reelection, Democrats will choose between radically different options for mayor: a centrist former governor in his 60s who resigned in disgrace and a millennial democratic socialist whose rise in the polls has shocked the political establishment. This week on Reveal, we head to New York to talk to voters who abandoned Democrats in November and take you inside the bitter fight to win them back.

The Daily Beast's David Rothkopf joins Joanna Coles to unpack the chaos behind Israel's strike on Iran—and the confusion inside the the Trump administration's response. From Marco Rubio claiming America had nothing to do with Israel's attack, to Trump scrambling to take credit, Rothkopf lays out why nobody seems to know who approved what, or when. He explains why Trump's “deal guy” approach to foreign policy has failed everywhere from Gaza to Ukraine, and why Trump's inner circle of golf buddies and yes-men leaves America weaker and more isolated than ever. Rothkopf calls Trump “the most impotent president in living memory”—and warns that our enemies are laughing. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
On this episode of “Sara Gonzales Unfiltered,” Israel destroyed Iran's nuclear site yesterday with Operation Rising Lion. Now, the world is trying to navigate the fallout of this attack and decide how to respond. Could this conflict escalate into World War 3?

Finally, Senator Alex Padilla (D-Calif.) was forcefully removed from a press briefing held by DHS Secretary Kristi Noem for disrupting the conference.

America feels very different this weekend. While the president's planned military parade (that just happens to coincide with his birthday) will see tanks and armored vehicles rolling through Washington DC, federalized National Guard and US Marines have been deployed to Los Angeles over the objections of state and city electeds, many of us are reeling from seeing a sitting US Senator forced to the floor and cuffed for trying to ask a question, and dozens of protests are planned around the country to declare “No Kings”. It's. A. Lot. In this episode of Amicus Dahlia Lithwick is joined by Mark Joseph Stern to try to process some of the events of the last week, and to understand where the law stands on the key question of whether President Trump lawfully deployed troops quell anti-ICE raid protests in California that the administration is trying to claim are a “rebellion”.

Federal agents tackle and handcuff Senator Alex Padilla after he shouts a question at Kristi Noem at a public press conference. Trump continues to politicize the military, attacking his political enemies in a speech to troops at Fort Bragg and preparing for his North Korea-style birthday party. New polling shows that Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" is wildly unpopular—and increasingly vulnerable to Democratic attacks. Favreau and Nicolle Wallace, host of MSNBC's Deadline: White House and the new podcast series The Best People, discuss the latest from occupied LA, check in on the short-lived Trump-Elon feud, and try not to panic over RFK Jr.'s recent firings at the CDC. Then Lovett sits down with Zohran Mamdani to discuss his surging campaign for mayor of New York City.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Tommy and Ben discuss Israel's ongoing military assault on Iran–breaking down who and what got hit, why the timing was a surprise, and what the Trump administration knew ahead of time. They also talk about how the attacks could impact Iran's nuclear program and current regime, what retaliation could look like, and how Democrats should respond.
Israel launched strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities, killing at least three of Iran's top military leaders. We look at why Israel took these actions now, what Iran might do next, and how the conflict complicates President Trump's efforts to be a dealmaker and a peacekeeper. Also, the dramatic removal of a U.S. Senator from a Homeland Security press conference capped off a week of aggressive immigration moves by the Trump administration. How are Americans responding to Trump's shows of force?

Israel officially launched a precise attack on Iran, which led to the deaths of multiple high-ranking Iranian government officials. Glenn breaks down why Iran stands as a unique threat and why you can't make peace with a country whose religious ideology makes it clear that it wants a complete takeover. Why is Iran so desperate to have nuclear weapons? Glenn lays out how dangerous it is when Iran's unique view on war and death is coupled with nuclear weaponry. Glenn and Jason Buttrill discuss America's role in Israel's strike on Iran and President Trump's negotiation tactics. Lt. Col. (Ret.) Jonathan Conricus joins to discuss Israel's pre-emptive strike on Iran's nuclear program and what this means for Middle East relations. Glenn discusses the horrifying new assisted suicide bill about to pass in New York. Glenn reads through some backlash he received in a recent pro-Israel post. Glenn and Stu discuss the recent dramatic scene involving California Senator Alex Padilla (D), who was handcuffed and thrown to the ground after storming a press conference by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, Sen Alex Padilla barging into a Kristi Noem press conference shows a pattern of violent, lawless behavior by Democrats. Democrats reflect their violent base and their violent base represents Democrats. Padilla could have coordinated with Noem instead of causing this show. The Democrat Party is a Marxist party that represents Islamists, antisemites, Stalinists, and criminals. They've given up on the American citizens. Also, Representatives Elise Stefanik, Jim Jordan, Byron Donalds, and Nick Langworthy shined at a hearing on sanctuary states. They held Governors Kathy Hochul, JB Pritzker and Tim Walz to account. Later, a federal judge in San Francisco expressed skepticism about the constitutionality of President Trump's order to deploy National Guard troops to Los Angeles to quell anti-ICE riots. The president has clear authority to federalize and deploy the National Guard, supported by statutes and precedent. Afterward, Trump's stance is clear: Iran must never get nuclear weapons. His 77 million voters heard him loud and clear—not the so-called “MAGA leaders” pushing isolationism. That's not Trump; it's Koch, Soros, and Rand Paul's world, not his. He's Reagan—peace through strength, not Bernie Sanders or Noam Chomsky. The isolationists dodge Iran's threats, deny their nuclear ambitions, and blame Israel while ignoring the assassination attempt on Trump himself. Where's their plan? Let Iran aim nukes at us? Blackmail our allies? They've got no answers, just tired Marxist rehashes and attacks on our history. If Trump acts to protect us, support him, our military, and, yes, Israel. Don't smear him as abandoning MAGA—he's keeping his promise. In addition, On Power explains that in his 1792 essay, James Madison explores the concept of property rights, expanding the term beyond mere physical possessions to include personal rights and freedoms. Property encompasses everything a person values and has a right to, such as opinions, religious beliefs, personal safety, liberty, and the free use of their faculties. Madison argues that a just government must protect all forms of property—both tangible and intangible—impartially. Finally, in breaking news the Israeli Air Force has launched strikes on Iran, with explosions reported in Tehran. This was inevitable, Iran was never going to give up its nukes.

In addition, we look at two of his most creepy errand boys, Lindsay Graham and Rudy Giuliani and wonder what sort of kompromat Trump possesses that they could stomach their roles in his defense. Rudy has gone even more batshit insane and was put in charge of Trump's entire legal strategy while Lindsay Graham is driving around Washington in his windowless van looking to lure people in with promises of candy if they only throw out those legal ballots.

This week, we light a candle for lost legends and torch a few bad takes. In Follow Up, Molly White reminds us that giving a damn still matters—despite the rising tide of apathy (and flaming robotaxis in downtown L.A.). Protesters across the country chant “No Kings!” while Elon does his best impression of a bootlicker groveling back to Trump. Meanwhile, we take a moment to reflect on 2025's greatest hits: riots, rollbacks, and rampant idiocy.In the news, Uber decides buses are cool again—but shittier and more expensive. The UK jumps into the robotaxi game while Tesla, shockingly, misses another launch date. French Tesla fans are suing over the brand's fashy vibes, Google is ghosting employees via buyout, and Meta's trying to buy its way to artificial godhood. Oh, and Trump's launching an AI chatbot. What could go wrong? Elsewhere, China turns off AI so kids can cheat the old-fashioned way, Disney and Universal are gunning for Midjourney, and Shopify goes stablecoin with Coinbase and Stripe.Media Candy's popping off: Foundation returns, Strange New Worlds prepares for its final warp, and Spaceballs is back—with the original cast! Meanwhile, we review Mythfits, Princess of Power, and the slow striptease that is David Zaslav's credibility. On the gadget front: forget your canned air—go full vacuum-blower-keyboard-cleaner madness. And in The Dark Side with Dave, stormtroopers vlog, AI kills joy, and we race the beam in retro game land. Finally, we say goodbye to a few greats—Sly Stone, Brian Wilson, Ananda Lewis, Douglas McCarthy, and Apple legend Bill Atkinson.

Joanna Coles is joined by Russian and American Journalist M. Gessen, whose reporting from both Putin's Russia and Trump's America has made them a singular voice on creeping autocracy. Gessen explains why Americans' faith in endless progress is misplaced—and how Trump, like Putin before him, overwhelms the system by attacking everything, everywhere, all at once: courts, media, universities, even law firms. They argue that the biggest danger isn't sudden collapse, but slow adaptation—that Americans are already getting used to living in a crumbling democracy. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Joanna Coles unpacks global chaos colliding with American absurdity: a California senator thrown to the ground, Israel striking Iran, and the man in charge of U.S. diplomacy? Trump's golf buddy Steve Witkoff. Who else to make sense of this than Michael Wolff, the chronicler of Trump's chaos. Wolff dives into Trump's racist tirade after the arrest of Senator Padilla, and how Gavin Newsom accidentally became the face of Democratic leadership—thanks to Trump himself. Plus, Wolff paints a jaw-dropping picture of Trump's “phone monologues,” Witkoff's terrifying Middle East power grab, and why American politics now runs on height, hair, and real estate credentials.

When President Trump slapped sky-high tariffs on goods from China, exporters rerouted ships elsewhere. Now that those tariffs are on pause, shipping costs aren't magically coming down — the cargo is spread all over the world. In this episode, we explain this unintended effect of Trump's inconsistent trade policy.

A bunch of cars were probably overturned too. Thursday's Diddy Trial. Who is the iconic rapper and their wife that was at a freak off? Aaron Rodgers is married. Who knew? Harry and Meghan THINK they're going back to the Royal Life. And Meghan is allegedly going to start opening restaurants and hotels as her new grift. Titan: The OceanGate Submersible Disaster documentary dropped on Netflix. Our big takeaway: Stockton Rush was a major a-hole. A new Bonerline full of complaints. Maz picks up on the first ring!

In the early hours of Friday morning, Israel pulled off a historic strike on Iran. As I record these lines, Iran is reporting a “massive explosion” in Isfahan, in a province that is home to several nuclear facilities. In Israel, where Shabbat has begun, the government has ordered all synagogues to shut down—and for citizens to remain close to bomb shelters as they brace for a retaliatory strike. It is hard to overstate the magnitude of this operation. Israel has taken out much of Iran's military leadership and some of its top nuclear scientists and hit nuclear facilities across the country. And it is still going. Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to do whatever it takes in order to prevent a nuclear holocaust. Meanwhile, the X account for Iran's military has threatened that “our response will be lethal.” And the country's supreme leader, Ali Khamenei, has tweeted: “The Zionist regime has prepared for itself a bitter, painful fate, which it will definitely see.” Donald Trump, for his part, is using this as an opening to push Iran into a nuclear deal. This is a historic juncture for the region—not just for the state of Israel, but for the West. So last night, just as the news of these attacks broke, I sat down with former Israeli ambassador to the U.S. Michael Oren and former Israeli prime minister Naftali Bennett to discuss all of it: the strikes, what they accomplished, how Israel defied conventional wisdom and seemed to pull off the impossible, what we can expect in the days ahead, and—perhaps most importantly to many of our listeners—whether or not America is supporting Israel in its efforts.

On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast: The Trump regime arrests a sitting U.S. Senator in a shocking display of authoritarian overreach at a DHS press conference. Trump torpedoes his own immigration policy, lies about the situation in Los Angeles, and unleashes tanks in D.C. for a grotesque military spectacle. Meanwhile, California Governor Gavin Newsom continues to lead the charge against Trump's escalating abuses of power. We break down the collapse of Trump's poll numbers, his latest surrender in the trade war, the GOP's humiliating congressional hearings, and more from another chaotic week under an unraveling regime.

On Saturday, Trump would like nothing more than images from Los Angeles of tear gas and balaclava-clad anarchists throwing bottles at Marines to complement video of himself in the stands at his military parade, saluting the troops amid a field of flags. That's part of the reason why he chose LA to federalize the Guard—home to numerous adversaries who willingly take his bait. And while tanks are going to roll through DC, wrecking its streets for the big birthday boy, Israel is going after Iran like it went after Hezbollah. Meanwhile, Kristi Noem handled the Padilla incident like a little fascist, and it only just occurred to Trump how the deportations will affect farms and hotels. Plus, a "Les Miz" correction, a 'Godfather' goof, and fighting words over The Beach Boys v. Lou Reed. Tom Nichols joins Tim Miller for the weekend pod. show notes Why Trump deployed troops to LA Tom's late night piece on Israel's attack on Iran Tom's "Silence of the Generals" piece The baptism scene in The Godfather Tim's playlist
Across the country, demonstrators are preparing for a weekend of protests against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations, Donald Trump's planned June 14 military parade, and Trump himself.Ground zero for these demonstrations is likely to be Los Angeles, where heavily armed ICE agents have carried out raids at churches, graduations, parking lots, and scores of other gathering spots recently.“ The level of armament that these guys are wearing is out of a GI Joe movie,” said Salvador G. Sarmiento, the campaign director and lawyer for the 70-member National Day Laborer Organizing Network. “It seems like the federal police is just driving around willy-nilly — dressed up as a goon squad — picking up people that they see on a street corner.” “The federal government [is] violently taking people from their work sites in military fashion,” added Jonah Valdez, reporter for The Intercept.This week on The Intercept Briefing, Sarmiento and Valdez joined host Jordan Uhl to discuss the wave of ICE operations sweeping Los Angeles that have sparked a week of protests and the militarized response from law enforcement.As people head to the streets again this weekend, protesters should be informed about their constitutional rights and safety options.

For today's episode, Lawfare Senior Editor and General Counsel Scott R. Anderson sat down with three leading legal experts on domestic military deployments: William Banks of Syracuse University College of Law, Laura Dickinson of the George Washington University Law School, and Chris Mirasola of the University of Houston Law Center. They discussed the legality of the Trump administration's decision to deploy U.S. troops on the streets of Los Angeles, where the state of California's legal challenge is likely to head, the Trump administration's broader ambitions to involve the military in immigration enforcement, and what it all may mean for the domestic use of the military elsewhere moving forward.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

While Andrew Jackson dismantled the Second Bank of the United States by withdrawing federal funds and vetoing its recharter, the Federal Reserve is a far more complex and entrenched institution, created by the Federal Reserve Act of 1913 with a perpetual charter. Potential Steps Trump Could Take Trump could work with Congressional allies to draft a bill transferring key Fed functions (e.g., monetary policy, bank supervision) to the Treasury. This might involve creating a new Treasury division or empowering the Treasury Secretary to oversee interest rates and money supply. Frame the Narrative: Like Jackson, Trump could rally public support by portraying the Fed as an elitist institution that prioritizes Wall Street over Main Street. He could argue that placing monetary policy under the Treasury ensures democratic accountability. Leverage Political Capital: With Republican control of Congress, Trump could prioritize this agenda, using budget negotiations or debt ceiling talks to pressure lawmakers. However, he'd need to overcome resistance from moderates and filibuster threats in the Senate. Historical Precedent: Before the Fed, the Treasury managed some banking functions (e.g., under the Independent Treasury System post-1836). Trump could cite this as a viable model, though it was abandoned due to inefficiencies. Executive Actions to Increase Treasury Influence: Trump could nominate a Treasury Secretary and Fed governors who support closer alignment between the two entities. While the Fed chair cannot be fired mid-term without cause, Trump could appoint a like-minded chair when the current term ends (e.g., Jerome Powell's term as chair expires in 2026). Trump could issue orders directing the Treasury to study or assume certain Fed roles (e.g., payment systems or debt management). While symbolic, such moves could signal intent and pressure Congress. Treasury-Fed Coordination: Trump could push for formal agreements (e.g., a revised Treasury-Fed Accord, like the 1951 agreement) to give the Treasury more say in monetary policy, short of full control.
Join Tom Bilyeu and his co-host Drew as they tackle hot-button issues—from national protests and government response to the growing concerns of political polarization and economic instability. As the headlines scream about cities on fire and rumors of civil war swirl, Tom and Drew challenge each other's perspectives, debating how much of our current climate is real versus media-fueled overdramatization. They'll share their unique “inside the car vs. drone's-eye view” approach to understanding how local experiences and national trends collide. In this episode, they break down the waves of protest in LA, the government's response, and the political strategies at play—especially in the context of Trump's and Newsom's public standoff. Plus, they don't shy away from the hard questions: Are we witnessing the early signs of a larger societal unraveling? How do personal freedoms, law and order, and economic distress fit into the bigger picture? And what can history—and thinkers like Ray Dalio—teach us about what might come next?
