Harry talks to veteran reporter Chris Whipple to get the inside scoop on his bombshell account of the Trump White House's inner workings.

They cover Wiles's sharp criticisms of administration officials and her admissions of serious wrongdoing by the president, including misleading the public on the Epstein files.

On this episode: President Trump addresses the nation and announces a sweeping blockade of all sanctioned oil tankers entering and leaving Venezuela, escalating tensions and sending shockwaves through global markets. We break down what the blockade actually means, how it could be enforced, and why the administration moved thousands of troops and nearly a dozen warships — including an aircraft carrier — into the region. We analyze Venezuela's furious response, the legal questions surrounding blockades as acts of war, the impact on oil prices, and what experts say a long-term blockade could trigger for both migration and inflation.Then we turn to Dan Bongino, who announced he is stepping down as FBI Deputy Director in January. We cover his statement, Trump's reaction, the internal tensions surrounding the Epstein memo, Bongino's clashes with Attorney General Pam Bondi, his obsession with the January 6 pipe bomb case, and the speculation that he may return to broadcasting. We also look at how his departure fits into the broader turnover inside the administration.Finally, we dive into the explosive Vanity Fair / Susie Wiles story. The reporter, Chris Whipple, doubled down and revealed that every interview — including candid remarks about Trump — was recorded, even as Wiles called the article a “disingenuously framed hit piece” that stripped out context. We lay out what Wiles actually said, how the administration pushed back, and why this story is causing such a political and media firestorm.#Venezuela #DanBongino #SusieWilesGet more AoA and become a member to get exclusive access to perks:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOfx0OFE-uMTmJXGPpP7elQ/joinGet Erin C's book here: https://amzn.to/3ITDoO7Get Merch here - https://bit.ly/AnthonyMerchSubscribe to the Anthony On Air Podcast here:Facebook - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirFBYouTube - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirYTApple Podcast - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirAppleSpotify - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirSpotTwitter - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirTwitterInstagram - https://bit.ly/AntOnAirInstaTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@anthonyonairpodDiscord - https://discord.gg/78V469aV22

Chris Whipple joins Joanna Coles as his explosive Susie Wiles profile sends shockwaves through Trump's White House.

Why did Susie Wiles agree to this level of access? How are people inside the Trump administration reacting to these revelations?

Russian journalist in exile Mikhail Zygar traces an information system so sealed even Gorbachev couldn't get the facts in The Dark Side of the Earth: Russia's Short-Lived Victory Over Totalitarianism. He draws a straight psychological line from late-Soviet overload to our current tech-firehose, arguing humans don't change much; institutions do (and the Soviet Union didn't have many worthy of the name). Plus: a quote-counting tour through Chris Whipple's Vanity Fair Susie Wiles interviews: "an alcoholic's personality," "conspiracy theorist," "ketamine user," "right-wing absolute zealot."

Alternating between the Biden/Harris/Walz and the Trump/Vance camps, Whipple draws on his unique access to exclusive sources on both sides, including Jen O'Malley Dillon, Susie Wiles and Ron Klain.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

FAN MAIL--We would love YOUR feedback--Send us a Text MessageThe wildest presidential campaign in modern American history deserves analysis that's as gripping as the events themselves. Today we're diving into two books that attempt to make sense of the chaos: "Fight" by Jonathan Allen and Amy Parnes, and "Uncharted" by Chris Whipple.From Biden's disastrous CNN debate where he appeared "ghostly white" and froze mid-sentence before 51 million viewers, to the frantic 107-day Harris campaign that followed, these accounts promise a behind-the-scenes look at a political earthquake. But which one delivers the goods?While Whipple's "Uncharted" offers valuable insider access through Biden's former chief of staff Ron Klain, it ultimately reads like an extended op-ed with a clear liberal tilt. The real revelation comes from "Fight," where Allen and Parnes weave a narrative that's both balanced and brutally honest. They take us inside shocking moments like Kevin McCarthy's White House tour with Biden, where the Republican leader walked away thinking, "This guy has literally lost his mind." We see Harris's team lamenting, "There's no effing future in our message," as they struggled to differentiate from Biden while remaining shackled to his policies. And we witness Trump's strategic mastery, from his McDonald's stunt to his Silicon Valley alliances.Key Points from the Episode:• Comparing two major books on the 2024 election: "Uncharted" by Chris Whipple and "Fight" by Jonathan Allen and Amy Parnes• "Uncharted" provides insider access to Biden's team but suffers from liberal bias and feels like an extended op-ed• "Fight" delivers raw, balanced storytelling that respects readers' intelligence without picking sides• Biden's debate disaster revealed his severe cognitive decline, with his chief of staff thinking "This is a disaster" as Biden froze on stage• Harris's campaign struggled to establish independence from Biden, with advisors lamenting "There's no effing future in our message"• Kevin McCarthy's White House tour with Biden revealed the president's confusion, leading McCarthy to think "This guy has literally lost his mind"• Trump's campaign effectively connected with voters on economic issues while Democrats focused on abstract concepts• "Fight" emerges as the superior book for understanding the 2024 election through its comprehensive and fair-minded analysisOther resources: Want to leave a review?

In this episode, Mosh sits down with Chris Whipple, author of the new book ⁠Uncharted: How Trump Beat Biden, Harris, and the Odds in the Wildest Campaign in History⁠ for a behind-the-scenes look at the tight-lipped four years of the Biden Administration. Whipple interviewed several former White House staffers–including Biden's former Chief of Staff, Ron Klain–about Biden's decline before and during his presidency, and what he calls a “fog of delusion and denial” in the President's inner circle leading into the 2024 campaign.  He takes us inside Camp David for the prep before his disastrous June 27 debate, and the chaos in the Democratic party during the three weeks after the debate until Biden's decision to drop out. It's also a story of personalities in Washington: the complicated relationship between Biden and Barack Obama, why Kamala Harris' loyalty may have contributed to her failed campaign, and why President Trump's Chief of Staff, Susie Wiles, might have a better handle on him than anyone who held the role in his first term.

From September 16, 2020: What is the proper relationship between the CIA director and the president? How should directors handle arguably illegal orders?

They couldn’t—or wouldn’t—tell Biden it was time to go. Journalist Chris Whipple reveals the human drama behind the political failure, captured in his must-read book Uncharted.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: 6:05pm- In a post to Truth Social, President Donald Trump announced that he has “authorized a 90 day pause” on heightened reciprocal tariffs—with a much lower 10% universal tariff going into effect instead. China, however, will be charged with a 125% tariff. Trump insisted that China's “days of ripping off the USA, and other countries, is no longer sustainable or acceptable.” 6:15pm- Will Democrats give President Trump credit for getting tough on China? In 2005 Senator Chuck Schumer advocated for a 27% reciprocal tariff on Chinese imports—noting that their unfair trade practices prevent American goods from being sold in the Chinese market. Similarly, in 1996 Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi called the “U.S.-China trade relationship…a job loser for the United States.” 6:30pm- In their new book, “Fight: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House,” Amie Parnes and Jonathan Allen document then-President Joe Biden's behind the scenes struggles leading into the 2024 presidential race. Chris Whipple's “Uncharted: How Trump Beat Biden, Harris, and the Odds in the Wildest Campaign in History” lays out a similar narrative. If Biden was cognitively struggling, why was he propped up by the Democrat Party for so long—and why wasn't the public made aware?

He's also a filmmaker who has produced documentaries for Discovery and Showtime.The Fight Of His Life opens on the fraught transition during which Trump would not concede, nor allow for a peaceful passing of critical information to the new administration. However, Chris spoke with a heroic Trump insider who quietly and boldly provided the incumbent administration with the tools they would need to safely lead our country.Chris calls his book, "a political thriller in three acts" and it quickly moves into detailing the challenges immediately faced by Biden: A deadly pandemic, a plummeting economy, an unresolved 20-year war, and the aftermath of an attack on the Capitol that polarized the country. The crises continued in waves… The fallout from the Dobbs decision, raging inflation, and Putin's unprovoked invasion of Ukraine.Remarkable access to White House insiders including Chief of Staff Ron Klain, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, and CIA Director William Burns allowed Chris to learn and explore internal power struggles and back-room compromises.Chris reflects with us on Biden's accomplishments, from Covid relief to rescuing the economy, to an infrastructure bill, to the Inflation Reduction Act, and preparing NATO for the invasion of Ukraine. He also speaks frankly about the troubled withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan and he offers his views on what Biden should do next and which achievements he should proudly proclaim from the campaign trail. We talk about the mysterious pull of Trump, the future of the Republican Party and the mixed reviews on Kamala Harris, whom Biden has called “A work in progress.” Plus, Fritz and Weezy are recommending Once Upon a Time Time In Northern Ireland on PBS and Prime and The Last Movie Stars on Max and Prime.Path Points of InterestChris WhippleThe Fight of His Life by Chris Whipple (paperback)Simon & Schuster Author PageChris Whipple on X/TwitterChris Whipple on FacebookOnce Upon A Time In Northern IrelandSay Nothing: A True Story of Murder and Memory in Northern Ireland by Patrick Radden KeefeThe Last Movie Stars - Streaming

So far, the presidency of Joe Biden has seen some big legislative successes, but a disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan. With a new Republican House majority determined to block his agenda, what's next for the Biden presidency?

We have just ended Biden's first two years as president, and it's a great time to reflect back on the wild national security ride we've had. In fact, Chris Whipple has just done that by publishing his book, “The Fight of His Life: Inside Joe Biden's White House,” a deeply reported book that contains many interviews with Biden's inner circle.Lawfare publisher David Priess spoke with Chris about the transition from Trump to Biden, Biden's decision to pull out of Afghanistan, Russia's invasion of Ukraine, the Biden administration's strategy of releasing intelligence before the invasion to try to both preempt the invasion and prepare European allies for what would come afterward, and much more.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare.
