President Trump took a weekend trip to Scotland to promote his latest golf course, with taxpayers footing the bill. However, this trip was met with protestors showing opposition to the administration's immigration policies, the war in Gaza, and his ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Eugene Robinson and Brendan Buck join The Weekend to discuss the optics of this trip as the country demands answers about Epstein. Plus, fired federal workers are spending the summer on Capitol Hill with their kids, forcing lawmakers to see the true cost of their cuts to government. Former USAID worker Kathleen Borgueta joins The Weekend to explain.

Earlier this year, the White House proposed a nearly 24% cut to NASA's 2026 fiscal year budget — the largest in the agency's history. The trims are largely aimed at the NASA's fundamental science research and would halt science that has already been partially paid for, like the Mars sample return and the Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope. Many scientists and policy experts are also worried that the reduced funding would cause a scientific brain drain. But within the last month, Congress has started to discuss appropriations packages that may not severely contract the budget after all. So, in this episode, Regina reports on the important hypotheticals: What programs might be affected? Are these cuts likely to happen? If so, when? Want to hear more stories about space and policy?

It's been a dramatic week after Republicans took a hatchet to public media that could devastate access to news in rural areas. Former president and CEO of National Public Radio Vivian Schiller joins The Weekend to discuss Congress' deep cuts to public broadcasting including PBS and NPR. Plus, Elon Musk might be out of Washington, but Republicans are still moving forward on DOGE cuts. Rep. Melanie Stansbury of New Mexico joins The Weekend to discuss. And, Donald Trump loves to promote conspiracies. He is leading his administration into spending taxpayer dollars to investigate these easily disproven assertions.

The Senate passed Trump’s cuts to PBS, NPR, and USAID. A new study found that many of Washington’s beaches are kind of gross. Obama says progressives need stop attacking men so much. // LongForm: GUEST: President of the National Border Patrol Council Paul Perez on President Trump's success at the border and what comes next. // Quick Hit: Democrat Congressman says his party didn’t demand the release of the Epstein list while Biden was president because they were too busy.

From staffing crises in national parks to energy dominance expansion across millions of acres of public land, here's what you need to know:FY26 Budget Breakdown: The House released its draft Interior-EPA spending bill, proposing deep cuts to conservation, environmental protection, and public lands. Including:$213M cut to the National Park Service, amid a 24% staffing loss23% EPA budget cut, gutting water, air, and environmental justice programsPublic Lands Open for Drilling: ConocoPhillips wants to expand its Willow Project with new test wells in the Western Arctic.

In this fiery and controversial political commentary, the speakers dive into what they call a week of major victories led by Donald Trump—from the defunding of California's high-speed rail project to the announced shutdowns of two major transgender clinics. They also celebrate a dramatic budget cut to USAID, blaming it for global instability, bioweapons risks, and terrorism funding. The episode paints Trump as a reformer taking on entrenched government programs and ideologies, while criticizing both political opponents and mainstream narratives.

In a powerful political shift, Congress has passed a $9.4 billion rescission package—its first in 25 years—targeting NPR, USAID, and unspent Biden-era funds. Conservatives hail it as a major win, alongside the closure of two major transgender clinics and efforts to defund California's high-speed rail. Fueled by Donald Trump's growing influence, this wave of reforms is seen by supporters as the beginning of a larger movement to dismantle bloated government programs and left-leaning institutions. Critics warn of culture war overreach, but the message from the right is clear: the reckoning has begun.

Former Missouri Senator Jim Talent slams NPR and PBS as taxpayer-funded left-wing propaganda outlets long overdue for defunding, praising recent rescission bills that cut $9 billion in wasteful spending, including foreign aid and questionable USAID programs. Talent stresses the need for disciplined federal spending to address the deficit and warns against misleading promises on Social Security. On the Epstein scandal, he acknowledges public suspicion around Epstein's death but urges caution on releasing names that could unjustly damage reputations, trusting the administration to have prosecuted all it could. He calls for balanced scrutiny, emphasizing both transparency and fairness.

Episode Summary:In this candid episode of The Fleet Success Show, RTA CEO Josh Turley and fleet industry veteran Marc Canton dive headfirst into a growing crisis facing government fleets: massive budget shortfalls. With some agencies facing $2-3 million in cuts, they explore the crossroads where leadership, fleet efficiency, and public service collide.Rather than simply trim the fat, Josh and Marc flip the script: budget cuts can be a golden opportunity to innovate, right-size, and lead with boldness. From leveraging debt financing to rethinking replacement backlogs and idle fleet utilization, this episode is a strategic playbook for fleet managers forced to do more with less. It's a masterclass in leading up, down, and across, all while protecting your team and your fleet's integrity.Whether you're managing a city fleet or consulting on fleet maintenance management software, this episode will leave you with tools to navigate fiscal storms while keeping your mission (public service) at the core. Key TakeawaysTwo options for deficits: Cut expenses or raise revenue, and the latter is politically toxic.Leadership mindset: Your first response cannot be “we can't.” Be an advisor, not a blocker.Debt financing & leasing: Underutilized lifelines for cash-strapped fleets.Right-sizing tactics: Everything from technician staffing to underutilized assets can yield savings.Consulting ROI: Outside expertise often identifies millions in savings by seeing what insiders can't.Storytelling = survival: Present options with consequences, not resistance. You're informing policy, not making it. Speaker BiosJosh TurleyCEO, RTA: The Fleet Success CompanyA third-generation leader, Josh has spent 20 years helping fleets succeed and the last decade redefining fleet management software through innovation, leadership, and culture.Marc CantonFleet Success Consultant, RTAWith nearly 30 years in the fleet industry, including two decades managing Fordham University's fleet, Marc brings practical, battle-tested strategies to municipal fleet management, specializing in resource efficiency and leadership development.
