Donald Trump promised to expose Jeffrey Epstein's secrets but now he's backing away, and the conspiracy crowd that once adored him is asking some serious questions.

The Trump White House is in full-blown panic mode tonight, with the ghost of Jeffrey Epstein weighing down heavily on the beleaguered president who has just had his worst week since taking office. The Wall Street Journal just released articles revealing shocking new information about the true nature of Trump's relationship with pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, and it easy to see why Trump wants ‘everything Epstein' to just stop immediately. But this fire has only just started to burn, and when it's done, the Trump presidency may or may not be in smouldering cinders. That's the memo.“Curse not the king, no not in thy thought; and curse not the rich in thy bedchamber: for a bird of the air shall carry the voice, and that which hath wings shall tell the matter.” Ecclesiastes 10:20 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, on Monday's program we asked a simple question, “why is Donald Trump seeking to cover up information about Jeffrey Epstein?” On today's program we have, if not the answer, certainly an answer. Donald Trump was very close with Jeffrey Epstein, so close that he wound up taking 7 flights on the ‘Lolita Express'. Is Jeffrey Epstein actually dead? He sure is, and he died in jail while awaiting a ‘tell-all' trial that had the elites in a frenzy. Trump released no information about Epstein after his death was reported in 2019. Now Trump is again president 6 years later, and the ghost of Epstein is towering over Trump, and threatening to crush him. Will this all blow over by the next news cycle? Will a war be suddenly declared to divert your attention? Can Trump weather ‘Hurricane Epstein'? All this and much more on this edition of the Prophecy News Podcast.

Happy 4th of July! In today's classic episode of 'Will Cain Country,' Will shares a deep conversation with his good friend, former 'Fox & Friends Weekend' co-host, and current Secretary of Defense, Pete Hegseth. Yes, the same Pete Hegseth who Jon Stewart called one of the most sexually attractive men in news. From laughs to serious ground, Will and Pete cover the launch of the Texas Stock Exchange, but the centerpiece of the discussion is Pete's book, The War on Warriors. He argues that the U.S. military, once America's most meritocratic institution, is being hollowed out by DEI mandates, CRT dogma, and political careerism. Pete shares raw, real stories from active-duty service members and calls out leadership by name, including General Mark Milley. They close with the big questions: Can Trump fix this in a second term? Should we bring back the draft? And what's the greatest threat to America today? (Spoiler: it's not China.) Do you think we have some of those answers today? This is a conversation that hits hard and shows why President Donald Trump tapped Pete as Secretary of Defense.

Today, Morgan, Martha, Les, and Jess examine the escalating tensions in the Middle East. Israel has launched a renewed offensive in Gaza amid mounting international pressure to end hostilities and allow humanitarian aid into the territory. Meanwhile, the murder of two young Israeli embassy employees has shocked the world and further underscored the volatility on multiple fronts.As Hamas remains active and Hezbollah and Houthi forces continue attacks—each backed by Iran—the Trump administration navigates complex terrain. With U.S.-Iran nuclear talks ongoing, and intelligence of a potential Israeli strike on Iranian facilities, questions loom: Will the administration's posture embolden or restrain Israeli action? Can Trump's hardline stance on Iran deliver results—or ignite broader conflict? And as Gaza remains in crisis and the region teeters, is Washington's strategy up to the challenge?Check out the answers to these questions and more in this episode of Fault Lines.Follow our experts on Twitter: @morganlroach@marthamillerdc@NotTVJessJones@lestermunsonLike what we're doing here?

In back-to-back explosive monologues, Tara delivers a raw, unfiltered breakdown of two urgent crises facing America: the escalating trade war with China and the looming U.S. economic meltdown. She reads word-for-word from a New York Post editorial exposing how Trump's tariff strategy forced shocking admissions from Chinese officials—including their role in the fentanyl epidemic—and critiques the Biden administration's weak follow-through. Tara then turns her focus to Washington's reckless spending, calling out both parties for pushing the national debt toward $47 trillion while the Federal Reserve quietly props up the economy with stealth bond buys. With passion and precision, she asks the hard questions: Can we really trust China? Can Trump save the economy again? And is America running out of time?

President Donald Trump has signed a sweeping executive order aimed at compelling pharmaceutical companies to lower drug prices to match those in other countries. At a press conference, Trump emphasized the need for fairness, stating that Americans should not be paying significantly more than patients abroad. The order sets a 30-day timeline for drugmakers to meet specific price targets, with a promise of further action if substantial progress isn't made within six months. The pharmaceutical industry is pushing back, arguing that importing foreign pricing models could undermine innovation and limit patient access. Trade groups warn the move could jeopardize future investment in American health care. As the administration prepares to implement the plan, the question remains: Can Trump successfully drive down drug prices, or will the challenge prove too great? Learn more about your ad choices.

Aaron Maté joins Judge Andrew Napolitano to dissect Donald Trump's claim that he could swiftly end the Ukraine war through negotiations with Russia. The conversation covers Russia's unyielding demands, U.S. co-belligerence, NATO expansion, and Trump's mixed signals on diplomacy. They also touch on Trump's recent firings within his national security team and how “tough guy” tactics might sabotage serious peace talks with Russia, Iran, and others. Can Trump choose between diplomacy and hawkish posturing—or does trying to do both doom any hope of peace?

Ex-financier Mark Carney led Canada's Liberal Party to a nearly 30-point comeback in the polls to win the federal election.

When day 100 came,  he reversed course in interviews, saying that his supporters knew those comments were made in jest.

On this episode we hear from two people with vastly different perspectives: President Biden's former economic advisor Jared Bernstein, and American Compass Executive Director Oren Cass, whose thinking on these issues have influenced a number of younger Republican politicians such as Tom Cotton, Josh Hawley and most importantly, Vice President J.D.

Hosts Renato Mariotti and Asha Rangappa are joined by NYU Professor Rachel Barkow to talk about the eroding institutional checks on executive power, and ask: Can Trump fire anyone at will? Subscribe to our Patreon here, where paid members will get access to exclusive portions of this show: patreon.com/reallyamericanmedia Asha, a Yale University National Security Law professor and former FBI special agent, and Renato, a former federal prosecutor, analyze just how far Trump has gone to undermine the independence of executive agencies. Rachel Barkow, author of Justice Abandoned: How the Supreme Court Ignored the Constitution and Enabled Mass Incarceration, breaks down the Supreme Court's pivotal role in defining the limits of executive power—and explores the historical precedents that Trump's “Unitary Executive Theory” is threatening to undo.  Rachel walks us through the story of Humphrey's Executor v. United States, a seminal 1935 Supreme Court case that affirmed Congress's authority to restrict the President's power to remove certain agency officials. Barkow also discusses how the modern Supreme Court could change these longstanding precedents, and lead to a cascade of global consequences. But it's not just about what's happening in Washington—the trio decodes how these transformations might impact average Americans, industries, and financial institutions. And we'll tackle the broader human implications and moral considerations of these power plays.  Be sure to join us next week, as Asha and Renato continue to bring clarity to the complex issues that can't be boiled down to simple sound bites, right here on It's Complicated.

Donald Trump admitted he wants to "un-unite" Russia and China, in a reverse of the divide-and-conquer strategy used by Nixon and Kissinger in the 1970s. Can Trump do it? Ben Norton explains why the United States sees China as the main threat to its global imperial dominance.

Matt explains the history of the “unitary executive theory” and the Federalist Society-backed movement to give the President more power than an actual king.  Then: Rutgers Law professor Katie Eyer studies, teaches, and litigates the law of anti-discrimination with a specialty in LGBTQ rights. She joins to discuss the current state of the law in the shadow of the Supreme Court's forthcoming decision in U.S. v. Skrmetti and the wake of Donald Trump's recent anti-trans executive orders. Which, if any, of these orders should we actually be concerned about? What does it mean that the fight for trans lives is now becoming a federal issue?  Can Trump really just instruct the federal government to ignore the Supreme Court's extension of employment protections to LGBTQ employees in Bostock v. Clayton County? Professor Eyer takes up these questions and many more as we find reasons both for concern and for hope. “Ensuring Accountability for All Agencies,” (2/18/25) “Interrogating the Historical Basis for a Unitary Executive,” Daniel D.
