It's slammer time for Bannon folks. With Congress voting to hold the former Trump Advisor and erstwhile style icon in criminal contempt, all eyes are on Justice for when they'll haul his ass into jail. Until then we're left to wonder if there'll be any punishment for any of these idiots including Donald Trump.

O que um exilado brasileiro em Paris nos anos 1970 e um apoiador de Bolsonaro em Orlando têm em comum? Para Teresa Cristina Schneider Marques (PUCRS), pós-doutoranda na UERJ com apoio da Faperj, ambos ajudam a entender por que o exílio deixou de significar isolamento e passou a ser estratégia política. Neste episódio, produzido em parceria com o Observatório da Extrema-Direita, David Magalhães (UFU / OED) e Guilherme Casarões (FIU / OED) recebem Teresa para discutir a transnacionalização do bolsonarismo, tema de sua pesquisa de campo recente na Flórida e de trabalhos como “Migrantes internacionais na extrema direita e as frentes de transnacionalização do bolsonarismo nos EUA”. A conversa percorre o voto da diáspora brasileira nos Estados Unidos, o papel das igrejas e das organizações de migrantes, a ofensiva de Eduardo Bolsonaro e Paulo Figueiredo junto ao governo Trump e os limites de um ativismo que pode sair pela culatra. No boletim de notícias, David Magalhães analisa as vitórias da AfD na Saxônia-Anhalt e em Mecklemburgo-Pomerânia Ocidental, a largada da corrida presidencial francesa com Marine Le Pen e Éric Zemmour, o acordo migratório entre Jordan Bardella e Nigel Farage e o improvável encontro entre Steve Bannon e Bernie Sanders, sintoma das fissuras dentro do trumpismo. Na abertura, David apresenta o NETEX, novo núcleo da UFU dedicado ao estudo da transnacionalização e do extremismo.

Trump Has Finally Lost the Plot: Jonathan Rauch & Peter Wehner on the Autumn of the American Patriarch

“His intent is getting worse, but his capacity is diminishing. The next two years will be some kind of mad race to figure out which of these two things will prevail.” — Jonathan Rauch As the nights get shorter, we are drifting into the autumn of the patriarch. That, at least, is the view of two old friends of the show, Jonathan Rauch and Peter Wehner, who argued in The New York Times that Trump has finally lost the plot. So will this really go down as the fall that Trump failed? Rauch and Wehner note what's failed and what hasn't. MAGA's revolutionary project — the regime change, the campaign against the universities, the idea that America had become Flight 93 — was an attempt to rout liberals from the commanding heights of American culture. At first this conservative Leninism succeeded, with universities and law firms folding in the face of a bullying state. But then civil society reorganized, fought back on the streets and in the courts, and district judges mostly held the line. But while the atmosphere of fear has evaporated, Rauch notes, what Trump has won is the transformation of the American state into a patrimonial form of government. With the complicity of Congress, it's hard to untangle the state as personal property and as a family business. Wehner's ethical diagnosis is starker. Coining it as the autumn of the sociopath, he observes sociopathy fused with visible cognitive decline, an old fool with enormous power and fewer people willing to check him. Rather than Trump losing the plot, the plot has lost the doddering patriarch. Forget Venezuela and Cuba. The concluding series in this North American version of The Autumn of the Patriarch will be aired live from La Casa Blanca. Five Takeaways •       Losing the Plot. The New York Times piece is, Rauch says, consistent with his earlier Atlantic essay on fascism rather than a retreat from it: that piece argued Trump was a fascist type of leader who would probably fail, and this one says the failure has happened. The plot in question is the revolutionary one — the attempt by the people around Trump to rewire American culture from the White House. Wehner's account of the man is bleaker than the politics. There were guardrails in the first term, Kelly and Mattis among them, and there are far fewer now; what has changed is a fusion of sociopathic tendencies that were always there with a cognitive decline that is obvious to anyone watching. He would update García Márquez's title to the autumn of the sociopath. And the image that lands: a doddering old fool wandering out of meetings to opine about the ballroom and the White House grass — except that he is a doddering old fool with a tremendous amount of power, surrounded by advisers who in some cases want to go further than he does.•       The Part He Won. Rauch is careful not to declare victory: the article spends its first third on what succeeded, and the most important of those elements to Trump personally is patrimonialism — the organization of government in which the state is the personal property and family business of the leader. That is how he runs the presidency, the Justice Department, trade policy, the Pentagon and the architecture of Washington, with a great deal of complicity from Congress. Why did the Republicans fold? Three reasons, in Rauch's account: members who defied him were primaried and often beaten; they swim in a media and political environment where ninety per cent of the people they meet judge them by their fidelity to Trump; and they are physically afraid — death threats follow a social-media finger-point, and members of Congress are not wealthy people with round-the-clock security. The first crack in the patrimonial edifice, Rauch notes, came this week from Senator John Curtis of Utah, who called for an investigation into the president's son's wedding.•       Minneapolis. Both men treat the Minneapolis protests as the hinge. Before them, Wehner sensed powerlessness and despair among Trump's critics — a loss of human agency. Then people stood up, peacefully, in freezing temperatures, and ICE pulled out. You can prove the possible by the actual, he says, and Minneapolis was something actual. His caveat is unsparing about his countrymen: much of the rediscovery of virtue has been driven by economic pain — gas prices, grocery prices, interest rates, the Iran debacle. He describes a Trump voter he met in a McLean coffee shop who had voted for the man three times and now says he wouldn't again. But if the economy were growing at four per cent with inflation at one and a half, Wehner suspects many would not give a damn — and that, he says, is an indictment of who they are. Seventy-seven million people voted for a man who had incited an insurrection. As for the coming memory hole, he expects plenty of retrospective distancing; he cites Gerard Baker and Laura Ingraham as early examples.•       Civil Society Held. The most encouraging thread. The revolutionary project had a theorist — Patrick Deneen, whose 2023 book Regime Change argued that conservatives must not merely constrain the elites who run American society but replace them — and an architect in Christopher Rufo, plus Bannon, the Heritage Foundation and the Flight 93 conviction — Michael Anton's 2016 essay — that it was now or never. Universities and law firms submitted first, and Rauch thinks the law firms never needed to. Then it turned: lawsuits, reorganization, district court judges doing a remarkable job at some personal risk. What looked like a bulldozer in the first six months now looks like something people are much less frightened of. He is still renaming lakes and excluding networks from the press pool, but the momentum is gone. Their diagnosis of the error is structural: you cannot win a razor-thin margin and then remake a fundamentally non-revolutionary country in two years. Wehner adds the deeper irony — conservative Leninism is a contradiction in terms, since the conservative temperament is anti-revolutionary by definition. Meanwhile the MAGA coalition is cracking up: Shapiro against Levin against Kelly against Carlson, the acrobats going one way and the clowns the other.•       What They Got Wrong. Andrew asked both men what a decade of Trump has changed in them. Wehner has rethought his party and his faith — he remains a Christian but no longer calls himself an evangelical — while his conservatism, the Burke and Oakeshott kind, he still holds. Rauch's answer is more unsettling: what has not changed is his conviction that the founders got the system right, but he misjudged the character of the American people. It never occurred to him that a man who attempted an insurrection could be a viable candidate, let alone re-elected, and he quotes Roger Sherman's line at the Constitutional Convention that the people are poorly informed and easily misled. He also missed the distress signals — the people left behind economically and culturally, who were not a hundred per cent wrong about a cosmopolitan conspiracy of the Davos crowd — and pleads guilty to complacency, then and now, because he still doesn't know what the next agenda looks like. On party: he has been a functional Democrat since 2018, voting only for Democrats until the Republicans rejoin the camp of liberal democracy. And to A...

Keen On Democracy
Eight Profiles in Cowardice: Jacob Weisberg on Bezos, Bush & the Other Collaborators of the MAGA Age

Keen On Democracy

“Since Trump's second election we've been in a wave of cowardice, where people have decided — partly by observing what others like them are doing — that there's no viability to standing up on principle.” — Jacob Weisberg Michelle Goldberg devoted her Monday New York Times column to two new books shaming the elites who caved to Trump. Both of them have appeared on the show this week: Susan Neiman's Call It Evil on Monday, and now Jacob Weisberg's Profiles in Cowardice: A Study of Collaboration in the Trump Era. Reversing JFK's Pulitzer Prize-winning Profiles in Courage, Weisberg inducts eight powerful Americans who didn't stand up to Trump into his hall of shame. It's quite a list. Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, Wall Street's Stephen Schwarzman, big law's Brad Karp, Senator Mitch McConnell, Dartmouth College president Sian Beilock, Chief Justice John Roberts, media influencer Megyn Kelly, and — perhaps most controversially — former President George W. Bush. Rather than MAGA flunkeys, Weisberg wanted figures who had stood up to Trump in the first term and then folded in the second. People with, as he puts it, interior drama. Bezos gave up a $10 billion Pentagon contract rather than soften the Post, then he threw in the moral towel by going to Mar-a-Lago and paying Melania $40 million to make an Amazon documentary. What changed? According to Weisberg, Bezos was fearful that his space startup, Blue Origin, would lose out to SpaceX on government contracts. No, not exactly Eichmann. But nonetheless sad if true. Especially since Bezos has the billions to do whatever he wants. His eight and their ilk aren't monsters, Weisberg suggests. It's just that their fear, ambition and self-preservation are contagious, and such pathetic behaviour is herd-like. That's their soap operatic interior drama. The banality of cowardice. More grist for Susan Neiman's thesis about the nature of evil in the Trump epoch. Five Takeaways •       Not Kennedy's Book. The title is a departure point, not a homage — and Weisberg is quick to note the irony beneath it. JFK's Profiles in Courage was written at the height of the McCarthy era by a senator who was conspicuously uncourageous about McCarthy, ducking even the censure vote, and no better on civil rights; Weisberg's reading is that Kennedy wrote the book to give himself courage by studying senators who had sacrificed their careers for principle. (It won the only Pulitzer ever awarded to a president, with the help of a ghostwriter.) What he kept was the structure: eight representative figures, each standing in for a part of the problem. What he added was the inversion, and a working definition — not physical cowardice but moral cowardice, the rarer failure. His epigraph is Twain: why is physical courage so common, and moral courage so rare?•       Cowardice Is Contagious. The book's explanatory heart, and the reason it isn't a gallery of villains. Fear, greed and ambition motivate most people most of the time, Weisberg argues, and political behaviour is herd-like: people copy their peer groups. Courage is contagious — and so is cowardice. His cleanest illustration is the tech elite, who acted almost as one after January 6 to throw Trump off every platform and swear off donations to Republicans who voted against certification, and who now, again almost as one, think the opposite. Their defence is competitive necessity: standing up would hand an advantage to rivals. Andrew's challenge — the wildebeest crossing the river, where the first ones in are the brave ones, so shouldn't Andreessen get credit for jumping early? — got a firm no: a departure from your peer group that is entirely self-interested isn't courage. Since the second election, Weisberg says, we have been living through a wave of cowardice. Andrew's name for it: the banality of cowardice.•       Bezos and the Rocket. The book's most carefully argued chapter, and the one that explains the method. First-term Bezos meets Kennedy's definition of courage exactly: Trump pulled a $10 billion Pentagon contract because he didn't like the Washington Post's coverage, and Bezos didn't flinch. Second-term Bezos went to Mar-a-Lago and paid Melania $40 million for a documentary. What changed isn't character but priority. Weisberg traces the through line back to a high-school graduation speech about orbiting colonies: the thing closest to Bezos's heart is getting humans into space, a vision he calls more benign than Musk's — terrariums around Earth rather than cities on Mars — and one he may have built Amazon to fund. Between the terms, SpaceX pulled far ahead of Blue Origin, in a business almost wholly dependent on NASA and Pentagon contracts. To Andrew's Zhou Enlai objection — if the space vision pays off, won't history forgive the collaboration? — Weisberg's answer: nobody would respect him for sacrificing his children to his vision either. Some things you compromise; the social contract isn't one of them. Andrew's verdict: not exactly Eichmann, but sad if true — especially since Bezos has the billions to do whatever he wants.•       McConnell Went Home. The counterfactual at the centre of the book. After January 6, with the Senate about to vote on conviction, Mitch McConnell had decided Trump should be removed and barred from ever holding office again — he told people so — and Weisberg argues he could have delivered the ten additional Republican votes needed. Then he called a recess, went home to Kentucky, discovered Trump still commanded majority support inside the party, and changed his mind. Cowardice, Weisberg says, and fear — not of being beaten up but of losing his place in the world, which was the Republican Senate he had built into a machine. Bullying recurs across these lives: McConnell was bullied as a child, and so was Megyn Kelly, whose own memoir turns on a vow never to become a bully and always to stand up to them — which she did, magnificently, when Trump and Bannon set the dogs on her in 2015, before becoming, in Weisberg's account, more MAGA than MAGA and a considerable bully herself.•       The Case for Shame. Weisberg is careful about the charge he's making — he gives space to each subject's reasoning, on the grounds that none of us can be confident we'd choose better — but he is not neutral about the remedy. Shame, he argues, plays a constructive social function: a community asserting its values against someone who has deviated from them, with a salutary effect on everyone watching. Hence the inclusion of the sins of omission alongside the commissions: George W. Bush, who loathes Trump privately, watched PEPFAR dismantled and said nothing; Sian Beilock, whose Dartmouth took the Justice Department's free pass and declined to back Harvard — at the one college whose 1819 Supreme Court case established academic independence in the first place. And who would make a Profiles in Courage? Local people, he says: the Minneapolis neighbours who drove ICE out by peaceful protest, the lawyers who resigned rather than sign the deals, the people on his own small-town corner with honk-for-democracy signs. On RFK Jr., a candid pass — the theory of the case runs out. On 2028: not a return to normal, but something owed to the country, an apo...

The hysteria over AI in political circles is clearly a Chinese op which is why Bernie Sanders is promoting a conference with Chinese AI 'safety experts' and is now rallying with Bannon against AI. Hillary Clinton has now joined in, urging an AI deal with China. Let's be clear, an AI deal with China (or any deal with China) is as worthless as the old nuke deals with the USSR were.

The Chuck ToddCast: Meet the Press

The Chuck ToddCast: Meet the Press

With the fall campaign officially underway after Labor Day, Chuck Todd lays out three scenarios for November and assigns odds to each. A blue mirage (15%) — Democrats still take the House but net only two Senate seats, saved by Republican money from tech and crypto, because you can't buy a new national mood but you can absolutely save individual candidates. A blue wave (50%), the 2006 comparison, where individual races start behaving like one national election and Democrats win everything reasonable. And a blue tsunami (30-35%), where Texas and Florida governorships come into play, independents break hard, and MAGA voters stay home. What separates a wave from a tsunami, Todd argues, is whether corruption breaks through as a voting issue — and data centers may be the most tangible way in. The problem for Democrats remains what it's been all year: they're as unpopular as Republicans, they don't have an obvious agenda, and releasing one risks dividing the party — though not releasing one carries its own risk. He also flags the Missouri map being tossed by the state supreme court, notes the redistricting chaos Republicans started, previews a GOP midterm convention that's purely a base-turnout exercise many candidates may skip, and closes on John Fetterman. The Wall Street Journal report — sourced to more than a dozen former staffers and colleagues plus internal texts — details skipped committee hearings, blown-off constituent meetings, and reluctance to attend police funerals. Fetterman calls it a smear job from disgruntled staffers. His question isn't about the reporting: it's whether Fetterman is still a Democrat come January 2027, and which side of the aisle he and Lisa Murkowski end up sitting on. He also weighs in on week one in college football. Then, Bruce Mehlman — founding partner of the bipartisan Mehlman Consulting and the man behind the quarterly slide decks that circulate through half of official Washington — joins the Chuck Toddcast to assess a bifurcated economy and the bills coming due. Millennials are wealthier than their parents were at this age but far more stressed, housing is inflated by a supply shortage, and the central question hanging over everything is whether AI pays off before the investment bill comes due. Mehlman notes the dot-com bubble produced real productivity gains and still burst, and the harder worry isn't the bust itself but whether it arrives at a moment when government can't respond. The back half turns to how business is bracing for a Democratic Congress. Mehlman says the business community knows the pendulum always swings, and an epic wave of oversight is coming — complicated by an OLC position that executive privilege extends to anyone who speaks with Trump, meaning everything gets litigated to the Supreme Court while companies weigh the risk of contempt. On Trump's pay-to-play demands, he argues there are usually paths to alignment without selling your soul, and notes wealthy individuals now carry more political punching power than corporations do. He's especially sharp on data centers, where polling shows tech, AI, and social media all deeply underwater and the backlash is "where Bannon meets Bernie" — the perception being that AI benefits only billionaires and shareholders. His prediction: the House flips and the Senate lands 50-50 — with Michigan the most interesting race on the board, because an El-Sayed win keeps DSA energy alive and makes AOC the 2028 frontrunner. Finally, Chuck hops into the ToddCast Time Machine to revisit Gerald Ford’s decision to pardon Richard Nixon and why the conventional wisdom of it being the right decision… is wrong.

Bruce Mehlman — founding partner of the bipartisan Mehlman Consulting and the man behind the quarterly slide decks that circulate through half of official Washington — joins the Chuck Toddcast to assess a bifurcated economy and the bills coming due. Millennials are wealthier than their parents were at this age but far more stressed, housing is inflated by a supply shortage, and the central question hanging over everything is whether AI pays off before the investment bill comes due. Mehlman notes the dot-com bubble produced real productivity gains and still burst, and the harder worry isn't the bust itself but whether it arrives at a moment when government can't respond: the national debt has doubled from $20 trillion to $40 trillion in a decade, the Social Security and Medicare trusts run dry in 2032, and there's no political courage to touch any of it — because in a system where bipartisanship reads as betrayal, nothing gets done. His modest starting point: a 3% tax increase paired with a 3% spending cut. The back half turns to how business is bracing for a Democratic Congress. Mehlman says the business community knows the pendulum always swings, and an epic wave of oversight is coming — complicated by an OLC position that executive privilege extends to anyone who speaks with Trump, meaning everything gets litigated to the Supreme Court while companies weigh the risk of contempt.

He's especially sharp on data centers, where polling shows tech, AI, and social media all deeply underwater and the backlash is "where Bannon meets Bernie" — the perception being that AI benefits only billionaires and shareholders. The fix is making local benefits visible, and finding a communicator who isn't a CEO, since tech executives are now viewed as villains. His prediction: the House flips and the Senate lands 50-50 — with Michigan the most interesting race on the board, because an El-Sayed win keeps DSA energy alive and makes AOC the 2028 frontrunner.

In this podcast, Michael Stiefel spoke to Tracy Bannon about the role of artificial intelligence in software and the attendant risks in the areas of security, software development, and society at large. While it might be reasonable to assume a certain amount of trust within a software ecosystem, the risks escalate when the boundary between two software ecosystems is crossed. Bannon emphasized that the discovery and exploitation of software vulnerabilities by AI is not a new issue, but it is just part of the evolution of cybersecurity threats. The discussion then continued to highlight that the traditional software development process was designed for humans. What the SDLC looks like in a world of agentic development has yet to be determined. Among the many challenges is testing an agent that is non-deterministic and whose behavior changes as it is tested, and reinitializing the test environment at the appropriate time. The use of AI agents has imposed a tremendous cognitive load on software professionals because they must review the massive amount of code and documents that an AI agent can generate. For both software professionals, and the public at large, the overreliance on artificial intelligence is leading to diminishing human skills, especially in complex domains. The question is - are we outsourcing our intelligence to automated models?

On Monday morning's War Room, Navarro's complaint was that Jeanine Pirro has not fired John Crabb, the Justice Department prosecutor who handled both cases. Bannon pushed back, because he likes Pirro. Hawk's observation is that Crabb remains employed in good standing, which says something about how much pull Navarro actually has. Then there is the older footage. Navarro sat with Ari Melber on MSNBC and described the Green Bay Sweep, the plan to keep Trump in office after the 2020 election, on camera and unprompted. That interview became part of the basis for the committee's subpoenas to him. Hawk's throughline: put a microphone in front of these men and they will describe what they did, every single time.

The conversation moved to a court ruling about installing a ballroom in the White House, with participants questioning whether such renovations require Congressional approval and noting perceived partisan enforcement. They discussed which chambers must pass measures for such changes and how political alignment influences enforcement. Participants discussed the Smithsonian director's social-media remarks conflicting with Senate testimony and the potential for contempt proceedings. They referenced past enforcement against figures like Navarro and Bannon and explored how cases reach higher courts and why the judicial process is intentionally slow to avoid unintended consequences. The hosts noted a deal to keep the government open until December and discussed historical norms for funding timetables across administrations. They contrasted Clinton-era positions with current politics and argued that MAGA policies stimulate job growth and tax revenues through increased wages and consumer spending.

CannCon and Chris Paul dig into a brewing Senate standoff over the Attorney General nomination, with President Trump publicly torching two Republican senators for blocking his pick and a wild theory floating around about why the Senate might be sticking around for recess longer than usual. They also unpack a clever Bannon idea for forcing the Senate's hand using a Cabinet reshuffle, plus a genuinely interesting sidebar on whether you actually need a law degree to be Attorney General at all. From there it is more Fauci fallout, a memorable Bernie Moreno soundbite, and a deep cut DEFCON research clip on election machine vulnerabilities that CannCon has been citing for years. They wrap with some skepticism about staged political debates and a truly bizarre WNBA highlight. A little bit of everything today.

Wolff conducted extensive interviews with Epstein and remained in contact with him while gathering material about Donald Trump, becoming both a chronicler of Epstein's world and, at times, an adviser on how Epstein might navigate mounting media scrutiny. Bannon's relationship appears to have gone even further, with the two men regularly exchanging political advice, arranging travel and discussing international contacts. Bannon also recorded hours of interviews with Epstein for a proposed documentary and privately described the project as media training aimed at pushing back against the trafficking allegations and rebuilding Epstein's reputation.

CannCon and Ghost kick things off with some meta commentary on media tribalism after a mainstream host's fact-check of Brian's own reporting went viral, then pivot into the real headline: President Trump's mysterious Thursday night address, widely rumored to focus on election integrity. They dig into a leaked story about a new White House task force digging through classified documents, debate whether both Georgia senators could be declared illegitimate on stage, and manage expectations for just how big the announcement will actually be. The back half is a Ghost special: a deep dive into Mossad director David Barnea, a resurfaced Bannon clip, and years of Ghost's own research suggesting a former Iranian president may have been an intelligence asset the entire time, tied together with last night's Devolution Power Hour discussion. Buckle up for a wild ride.

Ukraine is Turning Crimea into a Russian POW Camp. So Why is Nigel Farage Winning in the UK?!

Ten years after the Kremlin helped tip the very close Brexit vote, Nigel Farage is shockingly leading UK polls. The Putin fanboy, bankrolled by a crypto-king in Thailand tied to Putin's propaganda machine, is making false promises like Donald Trump in the 2024 election. Farage and his billionaire backers want to install a Kremlin Trojan horse to dismantle the rule of law, enrich themselves and the transnational pedo-trade, and wage war on marginalized communities. The waves of hate violence plaguing the UK right now will only get worse.  Like Keir Starmer's time as Prime Minister, Putin is a dead man walking. While his puppets try to break the West, Ukraine is turning Crimea into the world's largest Russian prisoner-of-war camp. Supply lines are being cut, and Russians are fleeing the peninsula. Joining Gaslit Nation with a special message from Ukrainians and to discuss his recent trip to Ukraine is American veteran Ken Harbaugh, along with Russian mafia-expert and Gaslit Nation wing-woman extraordinaire, Olga Lautman, of the Trump Tyranny Tracker.

The e-mails, which date back to October of 2015, show that Bannon, who was then the vice-president of Cambridge Analytica, an American firm largely owned by the U.S. hedge-fund billionaire Robert Mercer, was in the loop on discussions taking place at the time between his company and the leaders of Leave.EU, a far-right nationalist organization. The following month, Leave.EU publicly launched a campaign aimed at convincing British voters to support a referendum in favor of exiting the European Union. The U.K. narrowly voted for the so-called Brexit in June, 2016. The tumultuous fallout has roiled the U.K. ever since" https://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/new-evidence-emerges-of-steve-bannon-and-cambridge-analyticas-role-in-brexit Farage confronted over 5 million GBP gift from crypto king https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btQJsxgnON0 Frozen by the challenges of power: how Starmer turned triumph into tragedy https://www.theguardian.com/politics/ng-interactive/2026/jun/22/frozen-by-the-challenges-of-power-how-starmer-turned-triumph-into-tragedy Charity to shut months after marking 40th birthday https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cj6g7xl6k6eo U.S. Special Counsel Mueller filing shows Manafort drafted Ukraine op-ed despite gag order https://www.reuters.com/article/world/us-special-counsel-mueller-filing-shows-manafort-drafted-ukraine-op-ed-despite-idUSKBN1E3017/ Reform UK's former Wales leader jailed for taking bribes for pro-Russia speeches https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/nov/21/nathan-gill-former-reform-uk-wales-leader-jailed-bribes-pro-russia-statements-mep Ukrainian Author of Manafort Op-ed Says He Sought Input to Avoid Errors  https://www.voanews.com/a/ukrainian-author-manafort-oped-says-he-sought-input-to-avoid-errors/4157176.html When is the next UK general election? https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cvg0dzrw5rno Nigel Farage's £9m Donor Profits From Putin Propaganda Platform While Holding MoD Stake https://bylinetimes.com/2025/12/16/nigel-farages-9m-donor-profits-from-putin-propaganda-platform-while-holding-mod-stake/ UK voters "taxed" 4-percent over Brexit costs since 2016 vote https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2026-06-23/eu-looks-forward-as-brussels-marks-brexit-anniversary EVENTS AT GASLIT NATION: Gaslit Nation Salons take place Mondays 4pm ET over Zoom and are recorded and shared on Patreon.com/Gaslit and GaslitNation.Substack.com for our community New!

Episode 114 opens with a War Room clash: Rabbi Wallachie acknowledges that US and Israeli interests are diverging, but Ghost steps in to correct his claim that Hezbollah is simply the Iranian army, walking through its actual origins as a resistance movement. From there, Ghost breaks down a heated Bannon segment where Wallachie denies any Greater Israel expansion plan, a claim Ghost dismantles using Ben Gavir's own statements about expelling Lebanese civilians. At the G7 in France, Trump publicly criticizes Israel's conduct in Lebanon, suggests Syria's Jelani take over the Hezbollah fight, and reveals he was angry about the Beirut strike hours before the Iran deal was finalized. Ghost digs into the Strait of Hormuz numbers discrepancy between CENTCOM's leaked count and Bloomberg's tracker data, and explains why Trump is withholding the full 14 point memorandum until Friday. Putin and Trump's hour long birthday call gets coverage alongside Lukashenko's bombshell claim that the Vatican and Naftali Bennett deceived Putin into pulling back from Kyiv in 2022. The episode closes with Israel's political fallout: Lapid calling Netanyahu's handling an absolute failure, Smotrich and Katz refusing to be bound by the deal, and American Jewish leaders demanding the text be made public.

In one of the most explosive episodes of Two Mikes, investigative journalist and former War Room insider Jack Maxey joins Dr. Michael Scheuer, Colonel Mike, and Freedom First Network founder Jeff Dornik for a wide-ranging discussion on Steve Bannon, the We Build The Wall controversy, Miles Guo, presidential pardons, intelligence agencies, and the corruption they believe continues to shape American politics. Maxey shares firsthand stories from inside the Bannon orbit, discusses the fallout from the We Build The Wall case, and offers his perspective on why many of America's most powerful institutions appear unwilling to investigate politically connected figures. The conversation expands into Hunter Biden's laptop, federal law enforcement, intelligence community failures, censorship, China, AI infrastructure, surveillance, and whether elections alone can solve the deeper problems facing the United States.
