On September 5, 2018, an anonymous Op Ed appeared in the New York Times entitled I am Part of the Resistance Inside the Trump Administration. Obviously that caused a stir, followed by the publication of a book by the same author called A Warning. Someone was yelling from the inside: Get away from this man as fast as you can. You get the drift. Ultimately the Anonymous author revealed himself to be Miles Taylor, a former chief of staff at the US. Department of Homeland Security. Having worked in the Bush administration as well, Taylor knew how things were supposed to work in the White House - and how they were not supposed to work. He followed up A Warning with another bestseller, Blowback, in which he described what would happen in a worst case scenario during a second Trump term. Most of them have already occurred. In today's interview, Taylor told me it's now “time to engage in some radical thinking.” He said we need a massive movement of non-violent resistance unlike anything America has ever seen. I've admired Taylor's writing, his courage, and his continued call to the American people to wake up before it's too late. If Paul Revere were alive today, he'd be called Miles Taylor.

Outrage isn't new, but the way it plays out in 2025 feels like a full-time industry. This week, it's Phillies fans brawling over a foul ball, a CEO swiping a signed hat at the US Open, Bruce Willis' family facing judgment in a Diane Sawyer interview, and American Eagle cashing in on controversy with its headline-grabbing campaign.Here's the problem: every headline slaps the same word on these stories—backlash. But backlash and blowback aren't the same thing. If you don't know the difference, you're missing the real story.In this episode, I break down:The Phillies “Ball Snatch” dad who turned a viral mess into a lesson in staying calm.The US Open “Hat Grab” CEO who folded fast—and why it saved his business.Bruce Willis' family's media strategy, turning online judgment into strategic storytelling.American Eagle's outrage marketing proves that some brands script backlash into their budget.Why the age of the public apology is over—and what leaders are doing instead.The September takeaway? Backlash reveals character. Blowback reveals strategy. And knowing which one you're seeing could be the difference between chaos and control.Want More Behind the Breakdown?

The definition of “blowback” is the negative repercussions affecting a country whose government has undertaken a usually clandestine intelligence operation in a foreign country. The situation in Gaza is the embodiment of this concept, and the focal point of the world's attention right now. Is the trigger for World War Three being slowly squeezed by the psychopaths in Washington DC & Tel Aviv? How will the mutual defense agreements of regional powers impact the size and scope of this potential war? The entanglements in the Middle East are strangely reminiscent of the leadup to the First World War, which will not come as much comfort to those paying attention. Financial blowback hits just as hard, maybe even harder. Was COVID not a clandestine intelligence operation? The amount of dollars created during the plandemic was staggering, even by psychopathic central banker standards.

Trump health rumors, media scrutiny, and what counts as news kick off the show before a wide-ranging interview with Miles Taylor—former DHS Chief of Staff and author of Blowback—about the April 2025 White House memo labeling him “treasonous,” the threats that followed, alleged blacklisting, and how executive power can be bent to punish speech. We discuss investigations vs. “fishing expeditions,” loyalty scorecards for companies, and why institutions cave—or don't. In the spiel, Mike reframes the immigration fight: policy trade-offs, public opinion, and what data actually say about enforcement. Plus, a critique of a viral CNN segment on a deportation case and how storytelling choices shape perceptions. *Please Note that Mike is on assignment, which is why his audio is not ideal* Come See Mike Pesca at Open Debate Produced by Corey Wara Production Coordinator Ashley Khan Email us at thegist@mikepesca.com To advertise on the show, contact ad-sales@libsyn.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/TheGist Subscribe to The Gist: https://subscribe.mikepesca.com/ Subscribe to The Gist Youtube Page: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4_bh0wHgk2YfpKf4rg40_g Subscribe to The Gist Instagram Page: GIST INSTAGRAM Follow The Gist List at: Pesca Profundities | Mike Pesca | Substack

Mike revisits an old worry: Trump's policies are built for payoffs far beyond his term—and that's a problem for a man who won't share credit. From tariffs to civil service purges, the risks linger. To set the stage, we go back to a 2018 interview with Miles Taylor, once “Anonymous,” whose warnings still resonate as he returns with his new book Blowback.

Rosenbaum talks with GOP political consultant David Barklage about the potential for consequences in 2026 for Missouri Republicans, particularly with a potential ballot item that would make it much more difficult to overturn voter-approved initiatives. And Rosenbaum also talks with STLPR's Sarah Kellogg about the potential for a constitutional amendment protecting paid sick leave for workers. Rosenbaum also talks with Democratic Sen. Patty Lewis of Kansas City about a potential redistricting special session.

Miles Taylor is a national security expert who works in Washington, DC as editor of the recently launched newsletter TREASON on Substack and as spokesperson for www.EndPresidentialRevenge.org. Taylor previously served as chief of staff at the US Department of Homeland Security, where he published a bombshell “Anonymous” essay in The New York Times, blowing the whistle on presidential misconduct. He later published the #1 national bestseller A Warning, revealed himself to be the author, and launched a campaign of ex-officials to oppose Donald Trump's reelection. He's worked as an advisor in the George W. Bush administration, on Capitol Hill, as a CNN contributor, and is the cofounder of a DC-based charter school and multiple democracy-reform groups. Taylor is also the author of The New York Times best-selling book Blowback and the host of the iHeartRadio podcast “The Whistleblowers.” Miles became the target of Trump in an April executive order. He joins me for a frank discussion of what these past few months have been like for him and his family, how he's fighting against it, and the overall importance of whistleblowing in holding politicians and government officials accountable.

Hour 1 of the Thursday Bob Rose Show, with an in-depth look at a new book on the Oklanhoma City federal building bombing, the FBI, and manhunts for unknown possible assailants. Plus the morning's biggest stories for 7-31-25.
Newt talks with Margaret Roberts about her new book, “Blowback: The Untold Story of the FBI and the Oklahoma City Bombing.” Roberts who is the former news director of America's Most Wanted, reexamines the Oklahoma City bombing, challenging the lone wolf terrorism narrative with evidence suggesting a neo-Nazi plot and FBI involvement. Roberts reveals her investigative journey, including exclusive interviews with co-conspirator Terry Nichols, who alleges Timothy McVeigh was an undercover federal operative. Her book explores the FBI’s PATCON program, suggesting the bombing was a sting operation gone wrong. Roberts calls for transparency and the release of FBI documents to uncover the truth.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
What if everything Americans knew about the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing was wrong? On this episode of "The Federalist Radio Hour," Margaret Roberts, an award-winning journalist and former news director of America's Most Wanted, joins Federalist Senior Elections Correspondent Matt Kittle to explain how the FBI not only failed to prevent the OKC attack, but also covered up key evidence suggesting suspect Timothy McVeigh did not act alone.You can find Roberts' book Blowback: The Untold Story of the FBI and the Oklahoma City Bombing here.If you care about combating the corrupt media that continue to inflict devastating damage, please give a gift to help The Federalist do the real journalism America needs.
On this episode of the podcast, investigative journalist and former “America's Most Wanted” news director Margaret Roberts joins Amanda Head to unravel explosive details surrounding the Oklahoma City bombing. Roberts spotlights disturbing gaps in the FBI's investigation — particularly the mysterious disappearance of “John Doe Number Two,” a man seen with Timothy McVeigh whose identity remains unresolved. Even more shocking: Roberts raises the possibility that the elusive figure may have been a federal asset.The duo discuss the suspicious murder of Kenneth Trentadue — brother of Jesse Trentadue — and how his death might tie into a broader government cover-up. Roberts' new book, “Blowback” digs deep into these connections and what they reveal about the state of modern journalism and government transparency.You can learn more or buy a copy of this great new book at: BlowbackBook.com.

JoJo Siwa keeps making headlines. Last time it was because of her showmance with her “Celebrity Big Brother UK” castmate, Chris Hughes. This time it's because of her version of the Kim Carnes classic, “Bette Davis Eyes.” As per usual, JoJo leans into the autotune big time, and she's getting roasted for it. Then we've got all the drama between former flames Zach Bryan and Brianna “Chickenfry” LaPaglia. They had a messy breakup after Zach let Brianna (and the rest of the world) know they were over on Instagram! Looks like Zach's stirring up more sh*t over their relationship, and Chickenfry's clapping back - with receipts. And finally, we'll fill you in on everything we know about Pete Davidson's baby announcement. Looks like Petey-boy's BDE is about to stand for Big Dad Energy.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Congress approves a historic $9.4 billion rollback—the first in a generation—targeting NPR, USAID, and unused Biden-era funds, signaling a sharp turn toward America First budgeting. The cuts come alongside the closure of two major transgender clinics and renewed attacks on California's stalled high-speed rail. Backed by Trump and celebrated by conservative commentators, the moves are hailed as the beginning of a deep state dismantling. Critics argue the cuts are symbolic, but the right sees them as proof that a new political era is taking shape.
Maureen Comey, a federal prosecutor and daughter of former FBI Director James Comey, was recently removed from her position following a series of high-profile prosecutorial failures, most notably her handling of the Sean “Diddy” Combs case and the ongoing fallout from the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. In the Diddy case, despite mounting public allegations, corroborating testimony, and a sprawling federal investigation, Comey failed to secure a conviction on key charges—prompting criticism from within the DOJ and from the public, who viewed it as yet another instance of the wealthy and powerful skirting justice. Her role in the Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell matters had already drawn skepticism, particularly over the slow pace of disclosures and missing evidence. Combined, these failures painted a picture of a prosecutor either unwilling or unable to push cases against elite defendants across the finish line.Comey's dismissal is being viewed by many as symbolic of a broader institutional failure. For years, she was positioned as a central figure in prosecutions that promised accountability for Epstein's network of enablers, yet few meaningful outcomes followed. The fact that she is now gone—without fanfare, without accountability, and without explanation—only fuels suspicions that her presence was more about containment than prosecution. Her firing doesn't feel like justice—it feels like an after-the-fact cleanup, a quiet reshuffling meant to relieve pressure while continuing to protect the same circles that have evaded consequences all along.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:DOJ fires Maurene Comey, daughter of James Comey and a prosecutor in Sean Combs' and Ghislaine Maxwell's cases

Anson Mount (Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, Hell on Wheels) joins us this week for a grounded and honest conversation about fatherhood, patience, and finding perspective. Anson talks a lot about Strange New Worlds… getting into the responsibility he feels playing Captain Pike and the surprising fan backlash against casting in the series. We also talk about advice for new dads, embracing the moment instead of chasing the outcome, and whether or not he'd want his kids to go into acting. Thank you to our sponsors:
A newly released Department of Justice memo has confirmed that no additional prosecutions will be pursued in connection with the Jeffrey Epstein case, beyond those already charged. The memo concludes that after years of investigation, there is insufficient evidence to bring charges against any new individuals linked to Epstein's criminal activities. The announcement has drawn strong reactions from across the political spectrum, particularly from individuals and groups who have long believed that the case involved a wider network of co-conspirators.Within political circles, including those surrounding former President Donald Trump, there is an awareness that the DOJ's decision may provoke backlash among constituents who expected further accountability. Some advisers have reportedly expressed concern that the decision could be perceived as a failure to fully uncover the extent of Epstein's network. The Justice Department has stood by the findings, emphasizing the legal limits of the available evidence, even as public frustration persists over unanswered questions and the lack of broader criminal charges.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Trump Conspiracists Furious at Justice Department Over Epstein MemoBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The announcement has drawn strong reactions from across the political spectrum, particularly from individuals and groups who have long believed that the case involved a wider network of co-conspirators.Within political circles, including those surrounding former President Donald Trump, there is an awareness that the DOJ's decision may provoke backlash among constituents who expected further accountability. Some advisers have reportedly expressed concern that the decision could be perceived as a failure to fully uncover the extent of Epstein's network. The Justice Department has stood by the findings, emphasizing the legal limits of the available evidence, even as public frustration persists over unanswered questions and the lack of broader criminal charges.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Trump Conspiracists Furious at Justice Department Over Epstein MemoBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

It was a busy news weekend so it's a pretty jam-packed show today. First Emma and Sam take in the latest Trump administration spin on the blowback from their self-imposed tariff disaster. After that, they're joined by The Nation's legal analyst and justice correspondent Elie Mystal who breaks down some of the overarching legal issues that have emerged in Trump's first 100 days. Elie also has a new book out, “Bad Law: Ten Popular Laws That Are Ruining America" which is available here: https://thenewpress.org/books/bad-law/ Also check out Elie's writing in The Nation: In a Normal World, Harvard's Lawsuit Against Trump Would Be a Slam Dunk: https://www.thenation.com/authors/elie-mystal/ Did the Supreme Court Just Grow a Spine? https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/did-the-supreme-court-just-grow-a-spine/ After that, Sam and Emma react to the news that Rep. Gerry Connolly is stepping down as ranking member of the House Oversight Committee due to his worsening health. Basically at this point there's no good reason that the party shouldn't back AOC to replace him. In the Fun Half, Sam, Emma and Matt react to "Mr. Wonderful" attacking AOC by saying she's against the American dream because she's rallying tens of thousands of people against oligarchs. Then, Republican congressman Mike Lawler gets shouted out by a room full of his constituents over his acquiescence to Donald Trump. Meanwhile, Illinois governor J.B. Pritzker is in New Hampshire (gee, I wonder why) where he gave a fiery speech where he calls for mass protests against the Trump administration, saying that Republicans "must not know peace."

After that, we'll get into all the rumors swirling around Sydney Sweeney and her newly called-off engagement. (And how her “Anyone but You” co-star, Glen Powell, might factor in!)
