We are less than 24 hours away from a Chuck Schumer led government shutdown. When Chuck Schumer says phrases like "access to healthcare" what he really means is he wants taxpayer funded healthcare for illegal immigrants. Youtube settled with Donald Trump for $24.5 million after suspending his account following January 6th. John Solomon is here to unpack January 6th like never before. As more and more information is revealed and uncovered, the January 6th narrative seems to fall apart completely. Christopher Wray lied about political bias within the organization and Wray deployed 247 FBI agents in plain clothes to conduct "crowd control." The timeline and purpose of the pipe bombs planted at the DNC and RNC seems to be another false narrative John Solomon has uncovered. Were the bombs intended to create a violent narrative on Donald Trump supporters and the MAGA movement? Kash Patel is making good on his promise of transparency and accountability, fighting to regain the public's trust in the FBI. James Comey's indictment and charges are the same that John Mitchell went to prison for in the Watergate scandal, will we see James Comey behind bars?

September 28, 2025; 7am:  President Trump continues to attack those who are perceived to be his enemies. In his latest attack, the president has accused Christopher Wray, the former FBI Director, who he appointed to replace James Comey, of lying. In the last few days, he has called on Microsoft to fire executive Lisa Monaco, who previously served as President Biden's deputy attorney general and has been a regular target of Trump's rants. His Department of Justice has also gone on to fire prosecutors who refuse to take cases up against James Comey and Letitia James. Miles Taylor and Ankush Khardori join The Weekend to discuss the president's retribution campaign.For more, follow us on social media:Bluesky: @theweekendmsnbc.bsky.socialInstagram: @theweekendmsnbcTikTok: @theweekendmsnbcTo listen to this show and other MSNBC podcasts without ads, sign up for MSNBC Premium on Apple Podcasts.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Former FBI Director James Comey's indictment for providing false testimony to Congress and obstruction of justice promises accountability at last for at least some of his alleged criminal activity.  Hopefully, the present charges will shortly be augmented by others associated with Comey's leading role in the Obama administration's conspiracy to keep Donald Trump from winning the White House in 2016 – and to sabotage his first presidency when that gambit failed.   Another criminal probe seems in order regarding the conduct of Comey successor Christopher Wray in connection with the events of January 6th. Investigative reporter John Solomon just revealed that there were 274 undercover FBI agents in the crowd at the Capitol, reinforcing allegations that what occurred that day was an officially orchestrated “direct action” operation, not an insurrection. It's high time we get “just the facts ma'am” about FBI malfeasance. This is Frank Gaffney.

On this episode of the Chuck ToddCast, Chuck unpacks how Donald Trump's Department of Justice has become a political weapon, from targeting perceived enemies like James Comey to sweeping bribery cases under the rug, all while eroding public trust in law enforcement. He explores how Trump's strategy of framing his own criminal charges as political has worn down the public and set fire to the credibility of the legal system. Chuck also looks at the Democratic Party's internal strife over whether to embrace figures like Zohran Mamdani, the rising prospects of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and even murmurs of Lisa Murkowski eyeing a gubernatorial run. And beyond politics, he flags troubling signals in the economy—from surging Hamburger Helper sales to a slump in cardboard demand—that suggest things may not be as strong as the stock market makes them appear.Then, Dr. Michael Osterholm, one of the nation's foremost infectious disease experts, joins Chuck to confront the unsettling reality that Covid-19 was not “the big one.” From SARS and MERS as early warnings to the looming possibility of coronaviruses that are far more deadly than Covid, Osterholm argues that pandemics are inevitable—and the U.S. is dangerously unprepared. He discusses the political failures that prevented a serious after-action review, the collapse of government vaccine infrastructure, and why misinformation and anti-vaccine sentiment have left public health more vulnerable than ever.The conversation also looks forward: how mRNA technology could still be a game-changer, why developing respirators and updating building codes matter, and the urgent need for leadership with real bio-threat experience. Osterholm warns that everything from resurging childhood diseases to the rise of avian flu and the risk of bioterrorism are on the horizon, and he offers a sobering reminder—science is not fixed truth, it's the pursuit of truth. This episode is a wake-up call about what it will take to be ready for the next pandemic, which could be far worse than Covid-19.Finally, he answers listeners' questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment and previews an incredible weekend of sports. Got injured in an accident?

Former Attorney General Bill Barr says he doesn't believe Donald Trump has any connection to Jeffrey Epstein—something many conservatives argue has long been obvious. Meanwhile, a charge has been unexpectedly dropped against the alleged assassin of UnitedHealthCare CEO Luigi Mangione, raising serious legal concerns. But leading this hour is Senator Chuck Grassley confirming that the FBI, under the Biden administration and the direction of Merrick Garland and Christopher Wray, has actively investigated and targeted conservative groups. While that accusation isn't new, hearing it publicly from Grassley adds undeniable credibility—and has listeners questioning the political weaponization of federal agencies.

The host continues to discuss what he calls a "historic day," alleging that a whistleblower has exposed a conspiracy involving Democratic leaders, the FBI, and the DOJ. He claims Adam Schiff, Eric Swalwell, and James Comey committed felonies by leaking classified information to tarnish Donald Trump. The host also implicates Bill Barr and Christopher Wray in covering up these alleged crimes. He further alleges that Hillary Clinton's campaign hired contractors to fake Russian hacking to create the "Russia hoax" as a cover-up for her own misconduct. The host concludes by saying that a "war for the future of this nation" is underway and that the truth is now circulating widely, making it "too late" for those involved to stop the exposure of their alleged wrongdoing

In this explosive episode of Taking It Back, hosts Adel Nero and Zak "RedPill78" Paine dive headfirst into a week of bombshell revelations. The show kicks off with outrage over the Federal Reserve's $3.1 billion construction project, a price tag now under Trump's direct scrutiny. Zak and Adel question whether Fed Chair Jerome Powell may face legal consequences and explore the deeper agenda behind Trump's unexpected visit to the site. From there, the conversation shifts to the latest declassifications by Tulsi Gabbard, including criminal referrals against Barack Obama and key players behind Russiagate. The duo analyzes how these revelations signal the start of long-awaited accountability, with treason charges looming over the Obama-era intelligence community. They also connect these dots to the ongoing Epstein saga, highlighting subpoenas issued to the Clintons and exposing links to the Clinton Global Initiative. From Hillary Clinton's email thumb drives to whispers of Christopher Wray playing a sleeper role, this episode is packed with speculation, hard-hitting analysis, and big-picture context. Whether you believe justice is finally being served or still have doubts, this one will keep you thinking long after it ends.

Symbolically, the closure speaks volumes. Victor Davis Hanson walks us through the troubling legacy left behind at the FBI HQ on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “ Robert Mueller, a former FBI director, was the head of the Special Counsel's Office. Remember that? And he had the dream team—the all-stars, a hunter/killer team—with the Left. He was almost giddy about that they were gonna get Donald Trump on Russian collusion.  “ That same office then gave us Christopher Wray. Why was he spying on parents at school board meetings? Why was he spying on what they called ‘radical-traditional Catholics'? Why did they go after abortion protesters, but not in the same way people who were protesting pro-life?” 0:00 Kash Patel Shuts Down the J.

In January, Sherronna Bishop appeared as a guest on “America Can We Talk,” hosted by Debbie Georgatos. During the interview, she claimed that Merrick Garland and Christopher Wray joined a meeting she and others had with Mesa County Commissioners to discuss election fraud and Tina Peters. However, this meeting was open to the public, and not once during the entire hour-and-a-half call were Garland or Wray ever mentioned—not once. So why is Sherronna making these claims? If they are true, where is the evidence, and why wasn't it brought up during her testimonies? Next up, Sheriff Richard Mack, founder of CSPOA, joins the show to discuss what a constitutional sheriff is and the importance of the 10th Amendment. Later, the economy takes the hot seat—or more specifically, the massive sell-off the economy is currently experiencing following Trump's “Liberation Day.” Is this what Trump intended all along? We've got the scoop. All this and more on today's Untamed!

Christopher Wray claims he didn't want to raid Mar-a-Lago, and that the FBI did not have biases.  Visit the Howie Carr Radio Network website to access columns, podcasts, and other exclusive content.

Last week, we examined the deeply worrying prospect of Kash Patel, FBI director. This week, that possibility became even more worrisome with respect to the future of the FBI, all sparked by current director Christopher Wray's announcement of his intention to step down. To kick off this week's show, Dahlia Lithwick is joined by Slate senior writer Mark Joseph Stern, who explains why Wray's decision is very bad news for the law and the rule of law.  Next, the planet: Last summer, we tried to absorb the sheer scale of the shift in the constitutional landscape following a run of cases at the end of the last term that gave the courts the power to reshape the administrative state from the bench, and to impede the tools of the environmental protection trade at a time when the climate is in crisis. But the news cycle moved on and the global climate alarm got snoozed again. That alarm was surely ringing again at One, First Street this week, when a case that could reshape the nation's biggest environmental law was argued at the Supreme Court.  Seven County Infrastructure Coalition v. Eagle County, Colorado comes to the court as a dispute over how much review is due to a railroad plan that will carry waxy, crude oil through environmentally sensitive areas, and send said waxy crude on its way to already polluted and health blighted gulf communities. Sam Sankar of Earth Justice was on hand to explain how this weedy case paints a very clear picture of the Supreme Court conservative majority's fondness for grabbing cases that are vehicles for achieving their preferred policy outcomes, but then finding themselves in a bit of a pickle when its time to craft a new test for an old problem.   Want more Amicus?

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: 6:05pm- House Passes $900 Billion Defense Bill, Defunding Transgender Procedures for Military Minors. Mary Margaret Olohan of The Daily Wire writes: “The House of Representatives has approved its annual defense bill, which includes language banning taxpayer funding for transgender procedures that may result in the sterilization of children. This year's National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) passed the House of Representatives Wednesday by a 281 to 140 vote, authorizing almost $900 billion in spending. Two hundred Republicans and 81 Democrats voted for the NDAA, and 124 Democrats and 16 Republicans voted against it. Section 708 of the NDAA states that ‘medical interventions for the treatment of gender dysphoria that could result in sterilization may not be provided to a child under the age of 18.'” You can read the full article here: https://www.dailywire.com/news/house-passes-900-billion-defense-bill-defunding-transgender-procedures-for-military-minors 6:10pm- On Thursday, White House National Security Communications Advisor John Kirby told the press: “our investigation was unable to corroborate any of the reports about the mysterious drone sightings.” 6:15pm- Senator Marco Rubio—who has been nominated to serve as Secretary of State for the incoming Trump Administration—met with DNI Director nominee Tulsi Gabbard on Capitol Hill. 6:20pm- Christopher Wray has informed colleagues that he plans to step down from his position as FBI Director.

Hegseth, a decorated combat veteran, posted photos of his acceptance letter from the academy in a now-viral post. The 44-year-old said he chose not to attend the academy after he was accepted.” ProPublica ultimately decided not to run the report.

John Fetterman announced he would be supporting Rep. Elise Stefanik's appointment to serve as United Nations Ambassador.

Within the 80-page motion filed last week to dismiss Donald Trump's New York criminal case, there's a long list of grievances laid out by his legal team. MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord underscore some of the substantive arguments as to why a sitting president might find a pending case constricting, reasoning that there are aspects that could interfere with effective functioning of the presidency. But they also illuminate how these merits are buried deep within pages of hyperbole of alleged unfairness to the president-elect, prompting Andrew to ask, in terms of the facts, “Where's the beef?” Then they turn to some analysis of a letter written by incoming Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley, which calls out current FBI Director Christopher Wray with a personal vote of no confidence. Want to listen to this show without ads? Sign up for MSNBC Premium on Apple Podcasts. This week, you'll find a Premium episode from Andrew and Mary highlighting the national security apparatus and why Trump's nominees for these top posts matter.

Christopher Wray leaks of resigning on or before Trump's inauguration because he doesn't want to be fired. Chuck Grassly sends a statement to FBI Director Wray about 7 years too late. Sean Spicer joins the show to talk Pete Hegseth and Joni Ernst, as well as a Biden and his Syria comments. Continuing the Syria talk and how its connected to other U.S. threats, Stephen Yates joins to break it all down. And one of Trump's nominations getting attention is RFK Jr., Jennifer Galardi explains why we should love the choice.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Over the weekend, president-elect Donald Trump nominated a little-known, largely inexperienced civil servant to an enormous role in his upcoming administration – Kash Patel as FBI director. Firing current FBI director Christopher Wray, who has 2 years left in his 10 year term, would itself be an alarming break in norms. Atlantic staff writer Elaina Plott Calabro, profiled Kash Patel in August, chartint his rise to power, starting at the very beginning of his legal career. She explains how he came to loathe the media, and love Trump.Further reading:"The Man Who Will Do Anything For Trump," by Elaina Plott Calabro"What the FBI Has Done, and Kash Patel Could Do," by Jon Allsop On the Media is supported by listeners like you.

In person together at 30 Rock, veteran prosecutors Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord use their combined expertise in FBI and Justice Department standards to lay plain how far outside the norm the incoming president is aiming, by flouting a congressionally mandated 10-year appointment of an FBI Director and naming loyalist Kash Patel to replace Christopher Wray. Then, they take a beat to reflect on President Biden's unexpected pardon of his son Hunter and remind listeners of several active January 6th civil cases brought against Donald Trump  that may provide the only litigation of his actions after the 2020 election. Also, on Monday, Trump's brief was due in New York as to why his case should be dismissed based on the immunity of a sitting president. At the time of this recording, it had not yet hit the docket, but Andrew and Mary review the stakes and Judge Merchan's denial of delaying the filing.Want to listen to this show without ads?

President Biden pardons his son Hunter—a move he'd once promised not to make—and the backlash is immediate. Republicans are calling it a political favor, while some Democrats argue it undermines trust in the justice system. Meanwhile, Trump promises to replace FBI Director Christopher Wray with Kash Patel, a loyalist known for wanting to prosecute Trump's enemies (including journalists), even as his pick for Defense Secretary, Pete Hegseth, faces new allegations of workplace misconduct—and a scathing email from his own mother. Plus, Bernie Sanders finds surprising common ground with Elon Musk, and Cheryl Hines posts a Black Friday thirst trap.

Civil litigation in Georgia revealed that operatives hired by allies of Donald Trump illegally accessed and copied critical election software following the 2020 election. This wasn't just an isolated incident but a multi-state effort that spread to places like Pennsylvania, Colorado, and beyond. The stolen software, which is responsible for recording and counting votes, was shared across states, compromising election systems in key swing states. Despite the severity of these actions, which posed significant threats to the integrity of future elections, federal authorities—specifically the DOJ and FBI—failed to act. Even after being alerted about these breaches for years, both agencies took no meaningful steps to investigate or halt the illicit activity. This inaction mirrors their failure to prevent the events of January 6, 2021, raising serious concerns about their commitment to protecting the electoral process and our very democracy.  Election security experts, including Susan Greenhalgh from Free Speech for People, have been sounding the alarm for years, urging the government to take action. They argue that this breach, coupled with the failure of federal authorities to intervene, poses a real threat to the future of U.S. democracy. Without accountability and a thorough investigation into the stolen software, it's impossible to ensure the integrity of upcoming elections. The lack of response from federal agencies raises questions about their willingness to protect election systems from both internal and external threats.  This breach should not be ignored. It's time for a full investigation and immediate action to safeguard our elections. Greenhalgh joins Gaslit Nation in this urgent interview, before a live-audience of listeners, to discuss a skeptic's guide to why Vice President Kamala Harris must call for a recount in key states in the 2024 election, before it's too late.  To amplify this urgent call-to-action:  SHARE THIS SOCIAL MEDIA POST: Listen to @gaslitnation's urgent interview w/Susan Greenhalgh of Free Speech for People.

SERIES 3 EPISODE 72: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN: A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: Hours after the Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee ask the FBI for its report on the Attorney General Matt Gaetz Underage Sex Scandal, an extraordinary Gaetz Sex Diagram leaks. It's the Venmo records of the Venmo payments by Gaetz and others to the women in question, and there are more crossing lines and different routes than the map of the London Subway system. And it underscores anew why the Democrats must never compromise nor collaborate with Trump or Republicans who defend him. To hell with Jared Polis, who decided to suck up to Sideshow Bob Kennedy about vaccines, or Hakeem Jeffries, who declared the nomination of these gangsters like Gaetz and Hegseth as "distractions." Throw punches. Eat faces. Metaphorically drive the metaphorical Trump Train off the metaphorical track as often as possible. And most of all, never become Joe Quisling Scarborough or his wife, Marshal Petain Brzezinski. I can state with some assurance that this time, finally, he has ended his career. Morning shows the world over always see their ratings grow as it gets later (more people are awake). The average growth from 6 AM to 7 AM is around 20% On Monday, Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski saw their 7 AM ratings DROP by 17 percent compared to their 6 AM ratings.  On Tuesday, ratings for the WHOLE show were down ANOTHER eleven percent from Monday. Scarborough is now on the path we at MSNBC used to call “A Rita Cosby.” On Monday, the debut Rita Cosby Live and Direct has the highest ratings on the network. On Tuesday, it's down a typical 10 percent from the debut. By Wednesday HALF the audience is gone. On Thursday, it's a re-broadcast of “Rita Cosby Live and Direct.” On Friday it's “What was the name of that show we used to have that Rita Cosby was on?” Joe and Mika are done, and they are going to hit every stair on the way down. And for those of us for the whom the headline is "You somehow BELIEVED Scarborough was being sincere?" we are going to enjoy every thud. B-Block (23:45) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Matt Gaetz gets dunked on about 18-year old laws, JD Vance directs his misogyny against Steve Bannon's woman CFO and has to eat it, and Marjorie Taylor Greene has actually invited a transgendered woman somewhere to meet her - Greene - in the bathroom and beat the crap out of her (Greene). C-Block (34:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Because my schadenfreude diet hasn't started yet let me tell you the whole Joe Scarborough story. This scumbag finally ran out of other people to try to sabotage and instead destroyed himself. In my days before I escaped MSNBC it amazed me he ever got on the air: he spent 90% of his time and 99% of his energy on trying to sabotage Maddow and me and others. And so he goes from "Joey Scars" to "Joe Scared-Bro."    See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
