Podcast appearances and mentions of Chuck Schumer

The clock is ticking until the federal government runs out of money and potentially shuts down—again. Now you might be thinking, "Didn't we do this? Like, a few months ago?" And yeah, we did. In March, the Senate approved a short-term spending bill with the support of 10 Democrats, including Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer. And if Republicans want to keep the government open, they'll need a lifeline from Democrats. But Democrats want something in return: an extension of Affordable Care Act tax credits that are due to expire at the end of the year. Will the two sides reach a deal? We asked Daniella Diaz, who covers Capitol Hill for NOTUS, a nonprofit D.C. journalism organization.And in headlines, Utah's governor reveals new details about the man suspected of killing Charlie Kirk, Trump eyes Memphis for his crime crackdown, and a federal judge says it appears the Trump administration is trying to pull a fast one on the courts with its latest deportations.Show Notes:Check out Daniella's reporting – www.notus.org/daniella-diazCall Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit zeteo.comOn this week's ‘We're Not Kidding' Mehdi sits down with an actual superhero. No, not the Incredible Hulk from Marvel's ‘The Avengers' —  he's a pretend super hero. The real-life superhero we're referring to this week is the award-winning Hollywood actor and activist Mark Ruffalo. For over two decades, Mark has been one of the most politically courageous actors in Hollywood, having spoken out against the fracking industry, US imperialism, Donald Trump, and the genocide in Gaza. The two talk about Mark's political evolution, from being raised in a household with three different religions to getting involved in the anti-war movement during the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. When discussing Trump's second term and rising fascism here in the US, Mark doesn't mince words when it comes to the tepid opposition from Democratic party leaders Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries. Mark says, before also launching into a scathing critique of the notoriously pro-Israel House Democrat Ritchie Torres.Finally, Mehdi asks Mark about his years-long advocacy for Palestine and the elaborate “propaganda machine” deployed by Israel and its allies, as Mark is no stranger to being attacked for his pro-Palestine views. Now almost two years into Israel's genocide in Gaza, Mark gets deeply emotional when discussing the human cost of the conflict.SUBSCRIBE TO ZETEO TO SUPPORT INDEPENDENT AND UNFILTERED JOURNALISM: https://zeteo.com/subscribeWATCH, LISTEN AND SUBSCRIBE TO ‘WE'RE NOT KIDDING' ON SUBSTACK: https://zeteo.com/s/were-not-kidding-with-mehdi-and-friendsFIND ZETEO:Twitter: https://twitter.com/zeteo_newsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/zeteonewsTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@zeteonewsFIND MEHDI:Substack: https://substack.com/@mehdirhasanTwitter: https://twitter.com/@mehdirhasanInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/@mehdirhasanTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mehdirhasanCREDITS:Hosted by: Mehdi HasanGuest Host: Mark RuffaloExecutive Producer: Kiran AlviSenior Producer and Editor: Frank CappelloMusic: Andy ClausenDesign: Alicia TatoneMix Engineer: Valentino RiveraTitle Animation: Ehsaan MesghaliSpecial Thanks: Khaleel Rahman

Play ball with the GOP or let the government shut down? It's a tug he'll have to figure out quickly.

The United States faces the threat of a government shutdown as Democrats and Republicans clash over health care. Democrats, including Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, demand an extension of Affordable Care Act tax credits to prevent steep premium hikes. Republicans, including Senate Majority Leader John Thune, accuse Democrats of manufacturing a fight with the Trump administration. President Donald Trump dismissed their demands, saying Democrats are “sick” and “at the end of the rope.” With funding set to run out on Sept. 30, a stopgap deal is possible, but both sides are digging in.

And we Dig Deep into where President Trump is considering deploying the National Guard next. Memphis, New Orleans, St. Louis, and Portland have been suggested due to their crime rates and possible ties to Antifa, but where would Trump's strategies to reduce crime see the most success? 32:30 Save 20% on Protovit.

The governor of Utah irresponsibly releases partial information about the Charlie Kirk shooter, even encouraging people to interpret it themselves. He then admits to praying that the shooter would be from another country or not one of "us". Donald Trump goes on Fox & Friends and proclaims, "he doesn't care about radicals on the right". Donald Trump grieves the loss of Charlie Kirk by dancing at Yankee Stadium. When asked how he is holding up Trump replied by bragging about the new White House ballroom.

The release of thousands of emails from Jeffrey Epstein's personal account has detonated across politics and business. In the UK, Peter Mandelson — once a towering figure in Labour politics — was exposed as far closer to Epstein than he had admitted, referring to him as his “best pal” and even defending him after his conviction. The backlash was swift: Prime Minister Keir Starmer dismissed Mandelson from his ambassadorship, and his consultancy firm Global Counsel announced it would cut him out entirely, leaving his reputation and career in ruins.In the United States, Epstein's shadow now hangs over Congress. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is pushing to force the Department of Justice to release every Epstein file within 30 days, including FBI reports, plea deal records, and potentially even intelligence documents. The move could unearth years of hidden material, but it has both parties rattled, since Epstein's network spanned Democrats and Republicans alike. For survivors and the public, it represents the closest chance yet to break through the wall of secrecy that has long shielded Epstein's protectors.The most grotesque revelations come from the emails tying Ghislaine Maxwell even more tightly to Epstein. Beyond her role managing his properties and finances, the correspondence shows her planning fertility treatments with him — laying out procedures, timing, and logistics for having children together. This detail obliterates Maxwell's longstanding defense that she was distant from Epstein, revealing instead a relationship that was personal, operational, and intimate. Together, these headlines underscore that the Epstein story is still unraveling, and that every new leak peels back another layer of protection around the elite who enabled him.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

On this episode: Congress faces another high-stakes deadline as the fiscal year draws to a close, and divisions over how to fund the government are coming to a head. Senate and House leaders are weighing their options as Democrats insist on health care provisions and other amendments, Republicans navigate internal disagreements, and President Trump's influence continues to shape the standoff.  Burgess Everett, Congressional Bureau Chief for Semafor, joins the conversation to explain the shifting power dynamics between the House and Senate, how past shutdowns provide context for the current standoff, and what role party leaders like Mike Johnson and Chuck Schumer play in navigating these negotiations. The discussion explores the practical challenges of passing a continuing resolution, the vibes in Congress following Charlie Kirk's assassination, the political risks of a shutdown, and how the outcome could influence both parties heading into the next election cycle.Read Burgess' reporting: https://www.semafor.com/author/burgess-everett Here's what happens when the government shuts down: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xmshB6WbQO8 Learn more about the last government shutdown: https://ballotpedia.org/116th_United_States_Congress#Noteworthy_events Complete a brief 5 minute survey to review the show and share some feedback: https://forms.gle/zPxYSog5civyvEKX6 Sign up for our Newsletters: https://ballotpedia.org/Ballotpedia_Email_Updates Stream "On the Ballot" on Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

David Waldman is back to tell it like it is and was. Eee-Ew! The Jeffrey Epstein birthday book has been released, the Trump-Epstein birthday letter has been revealed, and it's real, it's bad, and it sure is icky, much like many of its participants. Donald was certain that we all agreed the issue killed itself in its cell and was long gone and buried by now, but apparently that isn't the case. The Trump Supreme Court lifted restrictions on roving patrols and racial profiling on immigration stops, but you better believe they weren't talking about people wearing lederhosen and alpine hats. The Supreme Court also allowed Trump to fire the FTC commissioner, which of course goes against precedent. It would go against precedent to shut the whole place down and walk away, but here we are. Gops take their tit for tat for tit with Dems to Defcon 2 on Monday. Chuck Schumer tells them they might rue the day that they go Defcon 1… RUE He tells ya! Want to know more about “Discharge Petition No. 9”? Discharge procedure in the House? The travails and tribulations of House Resolution 581? Don't ask me! David knows about all that stuff. One thing that David did not know is that Missouri Democrats are holding a sit-in to protest a special session to redraw their congressional map. Now we all do!

Six months ago, Senator Chuck Schumer persuaded his fellow Democrats to vote for a funding bill that President Trump and Elon Musk wanted. It averted a government shutdown. Some Democrats argued against funding a government acting in ways that betrayed their values. Schumer said he realized many colleagues would disagree with him, but he acted in courage and conviction. He doesn't think the government can be allowed to shut down, even if the party in power is acting in repugnant ways. Shut down the government, and you might shut down the courts, Schumer argued. And then what? In a few weeks, Democrats could face the same choice. Once again, there is a growing wave of anger at the way that the government is acting — including a president tweeting a photoshopped picture of him bombing the city of Chicago. Our guest leads the local Democratic party and will discuss the choices ahead.In studio:Avi Presberg, executive director of the Monroe County Democratic Committee

The Marc Cox Morning Show opens with Marc and Dan discussing Lara Trump's speech at the Missouri Right to Life banquet before 1,100 attendees, focused on fundraising to overturn Amendment 3 and the debate over initiative petition reform.

Hour 3 begins with Todd Piro's humorous take on New York tax hikes, tax migration, and lifestyle differences between New York, Florida, and Missouri. Then Marc and Dan host 2A Tuesday with Luis Valdes of Gun Owners of America, covering constitutional carry, teachers carrying in schools, Florida's gun and ammo tax holiday, and the repeal of discriminatory gun laws. The hour closes with a Buck Don't Give a ____ segment on RFK Jr.'s claims about healthcare incentives and pharmaceutical influence. Hour 4 brings in Eben Brown of Fox News Radio on the Supreme Court's 6–3 ruling lifting restrictions on immigration raids in Los Angeles and the federal trial of Ryan Wesley Routh, accused of attempting to assassinate Donald Trump. Ryan Wiggins joins the conversation to weigh in on government subsidies, rising health insurance premiums, and the broader impact of government intervention in healthcare, education, and housing.

Hour 2 features Hans von Spakovsky on constitutional issues and Supreme Court rulings, including immigration raids in Los Angeles and potential legal challenges for Big Pharma. Marc and Dan also talk with John Lamping about Missouri politics, Amendment 3, and initiative petition reform. The discussion covers recent tragic events, political commentary on Chuck Schumer's economic criticism and Democratic policies, plus local news from the Miss America pageant to a stolen food truck in St. Louis. The hour closes with In Other News.

This Day in Legal History: A. Lincoln Admitted to BarOn September 9, 1836, Abraham Lincoln was licensed to practice law by the Illinois Supreme Court, setting in motion a legal and political career that would ultimately reshape American history. At the time, Lincoln was a 27-year-old former store clerk and self-taught frontier intellectual, with no formal legal education. Instead, like many aspiring attorneys of the era, Lincoln "read law" by apprenticing under established lawyers and studying foundational legal texts such as Blackstone's Commentaries and Chitty's Pleadings. His relentless self-education and growing reputation for honesty earned him the nickname “Honest Abe,” long before he entered the national spotlight.Shortly after being admitted to the bar, Lincoln moved to Springfield, Illinois, where he set up a law practice. His first lawsuit came less than a month later, on October 5, 1836, marking the beginning of a legal career that would span over two decades. Lincoln took on a wide variety of cases—ranging from debt collection and land disputes to criminal defense and railroad litigation—and traveled extensively on the Illinois Eighth Judicial Circuit.His courtroom demeanor was marked by clarity, logic, and moral conviction, attributes that would later define his presidency. Practicing law not only gave Lincoln financial stability but also honed the rhetorical and analytical skills that would serve him in legislative debates and national addresses. His legal work with the Illinois Central Railroad and other corporate clients exposed him to the country's economic transformation, deepening his understanding of commerce, labor, and the law's role in shaping society.Lincoln's rise from rural obscurity to respected attorney mirrored the American ideal of self-made success, and his legal background profoundly shaped his political philosophy. It was as a lawyer and legislator that he began to articulate his opposition to slavery's expansion, using constitutional and moral arguments that would later guide his presidency and the Union's legal stance during the Civil War.His legal reasoning and insistence on the rule of law would ultimately be central to the Emancipation Proclamation, his wartime governance, and the framework for reconstructing the nation. The law gave Lincoln the tools to interpret and preserve the Constitution, even amid its greatest crisis.Lincoln's admission to the bar on this day in 1836 was not just a personal milestone—it was a foundational step toward the presidency and toward a redefinition of American liberty and union that would endure for generations.Events ripple in time like waves on a pond, and Lincoln's admission to the bar in 1836 is one such stone cast into history. Had he not secured that license—had he not taught himself law from borrowed books and legal treatises—it is likely he never would have risen to national prominence or attained the presidency. Without Lincoln's leadership in 1860, the United States may well have fractured permanently into separate nations, altering the course of the Civil War and leaving a divided continent in its wake. That division would have profoundly reshaped global affairs in the 20th century. Not to put too fine a point on it, but the fact that there was a United States powerful and unified enough to confront the Nazi war machine in 1941 traces, in part, to a frontier shop clerk's grit, discipline, and determination to study Blackstone's Commentaries by candlelight.A Florida state appeals judge who sided with Donald Trump in a high-profile defamation case against the Pulitzer Prize Board has been confirmed to the federal bench. On Monday, the U.S. Senate voted 50–43 along party lines to approve Judge Ed Artau's nomination to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida. Artau is now the sixth Trump judicial nominee to be confirmed during the president's second term.Artau joined a panel earlier this year that allowed Trump's lawsuit to proceed after the Pulitzer Board declined to rescind a 2018 award given to The New York Times and The Washington Post for their reporting on Russian interference in the 2016 election. In a concurring opinion, Artau criticized the reporting as “now-debunked” and echoed calls to revisit New York Times v. Sullivan, the Supreme Court precedent that has long protected journalists from most defamation claims by public figures.The timing of Artau's nomination has drawn scrutiny from Senate Democrats, who argue it raises ethical concerns. Artau reportedly began conversations about a possible federal appointment just days after Trump's 2024 victory and interviewed with the White House shortly after issuing his opinion in the Pulitzer case. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer called the confirmation a “blatant” example of quid pro quo, while others questioned Artau's impartiality.In response, Artau defended his conduct during his Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, stating that ambition for higher office alone doesn't disqualify a judge from ruling on politically sensitive cases and that he holds no personal bias requiring recusal.Florida judge who ruled for Trump in Pulitzer case confirmed to federal bench | ReutersAfter 21 years, one of legal academia's most influential blogs is shutting down. The TaxProf Blog, launched in 2004 by Pepperdine Law Dean Paul Caron, will cease publication by the end of September following the closure of its longtime host platform, Typepad. Caron said he isn't interested in rebuilding the site on a new platform, though he hopes to preserve the blog's extensive archive of nearly 56,000 posts.Initially focused on tax law, the blog evolved into a central hub for news and commentary on law schools, covering accreditation, rankings, faculty hiring, admissions trends, and more. It maintained its relevance even as other law professor blogs declined in the wake of Twitter's rise. Caron's regular posts made the site a must-read in the legal education world, often mixing in personal reflections and occasional commentary on religion.The closure also casts uncertainty over the broader Law Professor Blog Network, which includes around 60 niche academic blogs also hosted on Typepad. At least one, ImmigrationProf Blog, has already begun looking for a new publishing home.Reactions across the legal academy reflected the impact of the blog's departure. One law school dean likened it to daily sports reporting for legal education—a constant, trusted source of updates and debate.Groundbreaking law blog calls it quits after 21 years | ReutersThe U.S. Supreme Court has sided with the Trump administration in a contentious immigration case, allowing federal agents to resume aggressive raids in Southern California. The Court granted a request from the Justice Department to lift a lower court order that had restricted immigration stops based on race, language, or occupation—factors critics argue are being used to disproportionately target Latino communities. The ruling, delivered in a brief, unsigned order with no explanation, permits the raids to continue while a broader legal challenge proceeds.The case stems from a July order by U.S. District Judge Maame Frimpong, who found that the administration's actions likely violated the Fourth Amendment by enabling racially discriminatory stops without reasonable suspicion. Her injunction applied across much of Southern California, but is now paused by the Supreme Court's decision.Justice Sonia Sotomayor, joined by the Court's other two liberals, issued a sharp dissent, warning that the decision effectively declares all Latinos "fair game to be seized at any time," regardless of citizenship. She described the raids as racially motivated and unconstitutional.California Governor Gavin Newsom and civil rights groups echoed those concerns. Newsom accused the Court of legitimizing racial profiling and called Trump's enforcement actions a form of "racial terror." The ACLU, representing plaintiffs in the case, including U.S. citizens, denounced the raids as part of a broader “racist deportation scheme.”The Trump administration, meanwhile, hailed the decision as a major legal victory. Attorney General Pam Bondi framed it as a rejection of “judicial micromanagement,” and Justice Brett Kavanaugh, writing separately, argued that while ethnicity alone cannot justify a stop, it may be used in combination with other factors.This ruling adds to a series of recent Supreme Court decisions backing Trump's immigration agenda, including policies that limit asylum protections and revoke humanitarian legal statuses. In Los Angeles, the raids and the use of military personnel in response to protests have escalated tensions between the federal government and local authorities.US Supreme Court backs Trump on aggressive immigration raids | ReutersA federal appeals court has upheld an $83.3 million jury verdict against Donald Trump for defaming writer E. Jean Carroll, rejecting his claims of presidential immunity. The 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals found the damages appropriate given the severity and persistence of Trump's conduct, which it called “remarkably high” in terms of reprehensibility. The ruling noted that Trump's attacks on Carroll grew more extreme as the trial neared, contributing to reputational and emotional harm.The lawsuit stemmed from Trump's repeated public denials of Carroll's allegation that he sexually assaulted her in the 1990s. In 2019, Trump claimed Carroll was “not my type” and said she fabricated the story to sell books—comments he echoed again in 2022, prompting a second defamation suit. A jury in 2023 had already found Trump liable for sexual abuse and defamation in an earlier case, awarding Carroll $5 million. That verdict was also upheld.Trump's legal team argued that his 2019 comments were made in his official capacity as president and should be shielded by presidential immunity. The court disagreed, citing a lack of legal basis to extend immunity in this context. Trump also objected to limits placed on his testimony during trial, but the appeals court upheld the trial judge's rulings as appropriate.The $83.3 million award includes $18.3 million in compensatory damages and $65 million in punitive damages. Carroll's legal team expressed hope that the appeals process would soon conclude. Trump, meanwhile, framed the ruling as part of what he calls “Liberal Lawfare” amid multiple ongoing legal battles.Trump fails to overturn E. Jean Carroll's $83 million verdict | ReutersMy column for Bloomberg this week takes aim at the so-called "Taylor Swift Tax" in Rhode Island—an annual surtax on non-primary residences valued over $1 million. While the headline-grabbing nickname guarantees media coverage, the underlying policy is flawed, both economically and politically.Rhode Island isn't alone—Montana, Cape Cod, and Los Angeles have all attempted to capture revenue from wealthy property owners through targeted taxes on high-end real estate. But these narrowly tailored levies often distort markets, suppress transactions, and encourage avoidance rather than compliance. LA's mansion tax, for example, dramatically underperformed because property owners simply didn't sell.The appeal of taxing second homes is clear: they're luxury assets often owned by out-of-staters with little political influence. But that lack of local connection also makes them an unreliable revenue base. It's relatively easy to sell, reclassify, or relocate a vacation property, particularly for the affluent. And when policies hinge on fuzzy concepts like "primary residence," they invite loopholes and enforcement challenges—especially when properties are held by LLCs or trusts.Rhode Island's new tax could drive potential buyers to nearby Connecticut, undermining its own housing market and revenue goals. If states want to tax wealth effectively, they must resist headline-chasing and instead build durable, scalable policies: regular reassessments, vacancy levies, and infrastructure-based cost recovery. These methods avoid the pitfalls of ambiguous residency tests and create more predictable revenue streams.And because discretionary wealth is mobile, real solutions will require cooperation—harmonized assessments, multistate compacts, and shared reporting. But more fundamentally, states looking for progressive revenue should aim higher—toward income and wealth taxes—rather than tinkering at the margins with weekend homes.Rhode Island Should Shake Off ‘Taylor Swift Tax' on Second Homes This is a public episode.

Alex Traiman, CEO of Jewish News Syndicate, calls in live from Israel to discuss Israel's ongoing war with Hamas and the challenges facing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Traiman discusses how Hamas's hostage-taking strategy has given the group leverage, eroded global support for Israel, and fueled propaganda that even sways Jewish communities. He argues that criticism of Netanyahu is often a proxy for anti-Israel or anti-Semitic sentiment, while Rosenberg defended Netanyahu's difficult position. Traiman highlights how U.S. Democrats, including Chuck Schumer and Hillary Clinton, have pressured Netanyahu to step down, contrasting that with Donald Trump's steadfast support. He rejects claims that Israel is committing genocide, pointing to efforts to limit civilian casualties despite the war's toll, and stressed that if Israel intended genocide, the death toll would be far higher. They also examined Israeli politics, noting opposition figures like Yair Lapid but suggesting Netanyahu still has strong chances in the next election despite coalition challenges. Finally, Traiman discusses U.S. Senator Marco Rubio's move to block visas for Palestinian Authority officials, framing the PA as a terrorist-supporting entity unworthy of statehood recognition.

It was a packed show full of rage and shenanigans and the DC crowd LOVED IT!  This episode unpacks the arguments in Medina v Planned Parenthood South Atlantic, a case that could upend Medicaid beneficiaries ability to enforce their rights under the public benefit program all because conservatives hate abortion. We get into the history of efforts to kick Planned Parenthood out of the Medicaid program, the bad faith arguments made by conservatives to the Court as they try to do so again, and how a bad decision in the case could impact way more than access to abortion. Recorded LIVE at the Black Cat in DC, we gotta give a huge shout out and special thanks to the Black Cat crew for making the space for our loud asses AND for everyone who showed up!

(Aug 29, 2025) Sen. Chuck Schumer says the ROTC program at Clarkson University in Potsdam will not shut down, a reversal of a previous Army announcement; a volunteer who works with children who have been abused shares why the work is valuable to him; NY-21's Elise Stefanik addressed concerns that ICE recruitment would take away from local police hires; we tag along with Emily Russell for a trail run in the Mediterranean; and, a preview of the Northern Current Music Festival in Saranac Lake.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 8: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: Donald Trump might as well have shot those kids in Minneapolis himself yesterday. Trump sends the WRONG guns in the WRONG hands to the WRONG places pursuing the WRONG criminals. You want to be tough on crime, Trump? Deploy the National Guard to the headquarters of the gun-manufacturing companies and arrest the monsters who make their money from the child-murdering business. Murdering children during their thoughts and prayers. And have ICE round up the politician prostitutes who take the gun money to protect a lie about what the second amendment really means. These are the criminals. Trump is the criminal. Trump is soft on crime, especially on the most prevalent, heart-rending crime of our century, school shootings. You want to push back against Trump as he militarizes this country? As he makes it The United Police States of America? You want to make something good happen in the wake of these latest children that we as a nation have sacrificed on our mindless altar of worship to guns? You want these to be the last? You have to say it; you have to SAY the truth: Trump might as well have shot them himself. Democrats are strangling themselves by listening to consultants and strategists who insist they cannot push back on Trump's deployment of troops in big cities because polling shows Trump's only policy that gets approval (53%) is his new stance on "crime." And yet the biggest political event of the week was a man who simply stood up and concisely and with controlled rage told the truth: Trump is crazy, Trump is trying to provoke violence, Trump's enablers will be prosecuted (or betrayed by him), and the media is bothsidesing us to death. His name is Governor J.B. Pritzker of Illinois and his comments may have been the true headline of this week. Also, bookkeeping news: the fine folks at iHeart and I have agreed to continue this podcast through at least the midterms. And a further announcement on a wider footprint is coming. B-Block (27:33) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: This may be the best edition of this, ever. Could this be the craziest thing (out of the 50,000 crazy things) Stephen Miller has said? Is he the first person to use the phrase "pool hall" in 60 years? Oh here we go: my ex is back in the news and stuck with the worst headline I've ever read: "RFK Jr's Digital Lover." And Candace Owens is being sued for defamation by the President and 1st Lady of France and she wants Trump to declare them "foreign invaders" and is amazed he won't because she's just not bright. C-Block (44:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Do people like Owens believe the crap they spout? I actually have 45 years' experience dealing with the phenomenon of the product subsuming the salesman. I met Rush Limbaugh when he was just a baseball guy and 30 years ago he stood at my desk at ESPN dreaming of doing SportsCenter. I knew Hannity when he said "why do people get worked up about this? It's just TV?" And then the link is established. The more they believe, the more money they make.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Aaron McIntire dives into the White House meeting between President Trump, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, and European leaders to discuss Russia peace talks. Trump also announced a movement to eliminate mail-in ballots and voting machines, citing fraud concerns. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer shares three keys for Democrats in the 2026 midterms. Attorney General Pam Bondi targets sanctuary jurisdictions, and the Trump administration ends taxpayer-funded gender transition surgeries. A Minneapolis mayoral candidate's rally sparks controversy, and a Rhode Island Assistant AG's arrest highlights Democrat missteps. McIntire reflects on soaring Catholic conversions, Democrat-leaning names, Chris Pratt's take on Trump derangement syndrome, and a heated reparations debate. Finally, he grapples with analyzing Russia, balancing Putin's gestures of humility with his KGB past and propaganda concerns.   The AM Update, Aaron McIntire, Trump-Zelensky meeting, Ukraine peace talks, Vladimir Putin, European leaders, mail-in ballots, voting machines, Chuck Schumer, 2026 midterms, Pam Bondi, sanctuary jurisdictions, gender transition surgeries, Catholic conversions, Democrat names, Chris Pratt, Trump derangement syndrome, reparations debate, Russia analysis, Vladimir Putin propaganda

Graham Plattner is running for Senate in Maine. He's not a career politician. He's not a household name. He's a newcomer, and he's coming in with the kind of video that's designed to break through the noise. It's everything you'd expect from someone trying to signal that they're different — kettlebell lifting, scuba diving, oyster farming, military gear. This is Fetterman-core, and I mean that in the pre-stroke, media-savvy, meme-friendly way. It's intentionally loud, intentionally masculine, and intentionally designed to get people talking.But this isn't just a vibe campaign. Plattner's already built a real team. He's working with the same media shop that did ads for Zohran Mamdani in New York and helped elect Fetterman in Pennsylvania. These aren't DCCC types. They're insurgent operatives with a history of getting attention — and winning. That tells me Plattner's not just here to make a point. He's running to win. And in a state like Maine, where ideological boundaries don't map neatly onto party lines, he might actually have a shot.Democratic leadership, though, has other plans. Chuck Schumer and his operation would clearly prefer Janet Mills. She's the sitting governor, she's 77 years old, and she'd walk into the race with a national fundraising network already behind her. But that's exactly the kind of candidate a guy like Plattner is built to run against. If she enters, it turns this race into a referendum on the Democratic establishment. And it gives Susan Collins exactly what she wants: two Democrats locked in a bitter primary while she gears up for a calm general election campaign.Maine is weird politically. I don't mean that as an insult — I mean it's unpredictable in a way that defies national modeling. This is a state that elects independents, splits tickets, and shrugs at coastal assumptions. A candidate like Plattner, who's running a progressive but culturally savvy campaign, could actually catch fire. He's already signaling that he's not going to run from the Second Amendment — which would make him a unicorn among progressives — and he seems to get that guns, culture, and economic populism all intersect here in a way that's not neat or clean.It's early, and most people outside the state probably haven't even heard of him. But he's getting coverage. And he's trying to frame himself as the guy who will show up everywhere — from left-wing podcasts to centrist fundraisers to gun ranges in rural districts. If he pulls it off, it won't just be a Maine story. It'll be a signal that Democrats are still capable of producing candidates who can speak across class and cultural lines without watering down the message. We'll see if he holds up under pressure.Trump, Zelensky, and the Shape of a Ukraine DealTrump's pushing a peace summit with Russia and Ukraine, and the location that's gained traction is Budapest. That's not a random choice. Budapest is where Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons in exchange for guarantees that turned out to be meaningless. Putin invaded anyway. So now, years later, trying to broker a peace deal in that same city feels almost poetic — or cynical, depending on how you look at it. Macron wants Geneva. Putin wants Moscow. Orbán, who runs Hungary, is offering Budapest as neutral turf. That offer seems to be sticking.The terms of the talks are shifting. Zelensky isn't being required to agree to a ceasefire before negotiations begin — which is a major departure from the Biden administration's stance. Trump's team seems to believe that real movement can happen only if you start talking now, without preconditions. That's risky. But it's also more flexible. The Russians are now suggesting they might accept something like NATO-style security guarantees for Ukraine — just without the name “NATO.” That's a big shift. If they're serious, it opens up a lane for something that looks like independence and protection without triggering all-out war.Zelensky, for his part, is in a bind. His approval rating has dropped. His party just lost ground. The economy is on life support. And the longer the war goes on, the harder it is to keep Ukrainians fully on board with total resistance. That's not a moral failing — it's exhaustion. What Ukraine wants now, more than anything, is certainty. If they're going to give up territory — and no one's saying that out loud, but everyone's thinking it — then they want to know they'll never have to fight this war again. That's where the Article 5-style guarantees come in.Trump's envoy, Steve Witkoff, is reportedly testing those waters. And Marco Rubio said the quiet part out loud — that if Ukraine can get real security commitments in exchange for ending the war, it's worth exploring. This isn't the “bleed Russia dry” strategy the Biden administration backed. That was about regime change through attrition. This is something else. It's about containment, closure, and trying to make sure the region doesn't explode again five years down the line.No one's pretending this is clean. Crimea isn't coming back. Parts of the Donbas are going to remain contested forever. But if a deal gets Ukraine real protection, even without NATO branding, and gets Russia out of the areas it's willing to surrender, that's movement. And right now, movement is the only thing that separates this from another decade of trench warfare and broken promises. Whether it holds is anyone's guess. But it's on the table now — and for the first time in a long time, that actually matters.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:04:42 - Maine Midterms00:18:08 - Update00:19:04 - Trilateral Meetin00:30:04 - DC Fed Takeover00:33:24 - Epstein Files00:36:00 - Interview with Alex Epstein01:34:40 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

A Department of Justice employee, Shawn Charles Dunn, was arrested in Washington, D.C. after drunkenly throwing a Subway sandwich at a federal officer. The incident, caught on video, sparked exaggerated reactions from officials like the Attorney General Pam Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel, who framed it as a serious attack and even tied it to the “deep state.”  Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger mock the overblown response, noting that the case was initially charged as a felony before a judge downgraded it, and comparing it humorously to national security scandals. The discussion then broadens to concerns that the Trump administration is using such incidents to justify heavier federal crackdowns in D.C., raising fears of expanding authoritarian control. Plus segments on TikTok hiring an ex-IDF soldier as the platform's new censorship czar, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer's imaginary friends he consults with to determine policy and MSNBC hosts Joe Scarborough and Chris Matthews coming out in support of Donald Trump's crackdown on crime in DC. Also featuring James Li and Stef Zamorano!

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Show (08/14/2025): 3:05pm- Earlier this week, President Donald Trump announced a 30-day federal takeover of Washington D.C.'s police department—while simultaneously deploying 800 National Guard troops—to fight violent crime in the nation's capital. At the White House press briefing, Trump announced Attorney General Pam Bondi will oversee the federal takeover—while Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth will provide military support “if needed.” Additionally, the administration will assign 120 F.B.I. agents to conduct nighttime patrols throughout Washington D.C.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four Thursday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Yes, DC is Dangerous Trump’s declaration that crime is “out of control” and his plan to deploy federal resources in Washington, D.C. has sparked fierce debate, with Democrats downplaying the issue and conservative voices pushing back. Clay and Buck dissect the Democratic response, particularly Chuck Schumer’s claim that Trump is using crime as a distraction from the Epstein case. They argue this narrative is politically desperate and disconnected from reality. Polling data from the Washington Post reveals that 91% of D.C. residents believe crime is a problem, with 51% calling it extremely serious, reinforcing Trump’s position and exposing a rift between political elites and everyday Americans. Commentary from figures like Joe Scarborough and S.E. Cupp—typically aligned with the left—acknowledges the severity of urban crime and criticizes the Democratic strategy of relying on charts and statistics to dismiss public fear. The show highlights how Trump’s tough-on-crime stance resonates with voters, especially in lower-income and minority communities disproportionately affected by violence. Subway Guy Gets Fired A viral incident involving a Department of Justice employee assaulting a police officer with a Subway sandwich becomes symbolic of the broader cultural clash over law enforcement. The assailant was charged with felony assault, and Attorney General Pam Bondi emphasized that such behavior will not be tolerated under the Trump administration. The hosts argue this marks a shift toward restoring respect for law enforcement and public safety. The hour also explores urban crime disparities, comparing affluent areas like Northwest D.C. and Georgetown to high-crime zones like Southeast D.C. and parts of Houston. The discussion underscores how liberal elites, often shielded by private security, remain insulated from the violence impacting working-class neighborhoods. Buck Gets "Served" A spirited debate over Buck Sexton’s claim that he can serve a tennis ball at 100 mph. Professional tennis legends Andy Roddick and John Isner weigh in, casting doubt on the claim and sparking playful banter about technique, athleticism, and tennis attire. Lara Travis, Clay’s wife, joins the conversation via talkback, laying out the terms of the bet and rooting for Buck to defy the odds. The segment draws comparisons to amateur sports challenges and includes reflections on training for the NFL Combine, highlighting the difference between raw power and refined skill. AK Gov. Mike Dunleavy Clay and Buck discuss the geopolitical significance of Alaska, emphasizing its proximity to Russia and its strategic military assets, including missile intercepts and the largest Coast Guard presence in the U.S. Alaska Governor Mike Dunleavy joins the show to provide insight into the summit’s logistics, security measures, and the potential for Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to join future peace talks. The governor praises Trump’s leadership and expresses optimism that the summit could mark a historic turning point in resolving the war in Ukraine.
