    There seems to be a strong play for the "MAGA mantle" in suggesting President Trump is no longer "America First." Stigall lays out as clearly as he ever has today as to why there's only one MAGA leader and it's not an "influencer," or podcast host or member of Congress. It's POTUS. Are Republicans going to hang tough on Obamacare subsidies or fight for real reform now that the issue is front and center? President Trump tells Republicans to go ahead and vote to release all the Epstein files while new critics have surfaced on an FBI coverup of the attempted assassination in Butler PA. Plus RFK comes out against the wind, the Secretary of AG lowers the boom on SNAP fraud, and more women are enlisting in the military than ever before. And the issue of affordability - how a new way of thinking about money is spreading across the states and why Kevin Freeman - author of "Pirate Money" thinks there's a new way around the dollar. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers the White House's growing anxiety over the economy, the nationwide crackdown on illegal migrant truck drivers, new DHS surges into sanctuary cities, the rise of openly socialist leadership on the West Coast, and escalating tensions with China in the Pacific. White House Softens Tariffs as Prices Rise: President Trump acknowledged that tariffs may be affecting consumers and announced lower rates on coffee, beef, bananas, and other staples. Prices have soared due to weather, crop disease, and global demand rather than tariffs alone. Bryan explains that the cuts signal the administration's concern that working families are still struggling and that midterm voters may blame the GOP if the economy does not improve soon. Families Fear the Cost of Children: A new American Family Survey found that seventy percent of Americans believe raising kids has become too expensive. Bryan warns that this trend threatens the nation's future and highlights the connection between economic strain and family planning decisions. Crackdown on Unsafe Migrant Truck Drivers: The White House pressured California to revoke seventeen thousand driver's licenses issued to migrants who often cannot read English or safely operate heavy trucks. Some judges in Washington blocked the rule on procedural grounds, creating legal limbo. Bryan notes that until courts rule, untrained foreign drivers will remain on American highways. DHS Surge Operations Expand: Federal officers have flooded Charlotte, North Carolina, where one in five residents is foreign born. The move mirrors earlier crackdowns in Chicago, Portland, Los Angeles, and Washington, where crime dropped after DHS deployments. Bryan says New Orleans is next. Catholic Bishops Clash with the White House: The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops accused the administration of racism and fearmongering. Border czar Tom Homan responded that securing the border saves lives and that the Church should focus on its own scandals. Socialists Rise in Seattle and Los Angeles: Seattle elected an openly socialist mayor who supports abolishing the police under a communist economic system. In Los Angeles, another socialist candidate is challenging Mayor Karen Bass. Bryan connects these victories to a wider ideological battle inside the Democratic Party, where figures like Obama and Clinton now embrace democratic socialism while voices like Bill Maher warn against it. Democrats Plan Supreme Court Expansion: Longtime strategist James Carville confirmed that the party intends to expand the Supreme Court to thirteen justices once Democrats regain the presidency and Congress. He expects the party to remove the filibuster for that purpose, declaring the fight against Trump a national emergency. GOP Infighting Grows: Trump attacked Representatives Marjorie Taylor Greene and Thomas Massie over comments about Epstein files and personal issues. Bryan urges conservatives to stop the internal battles as socialist movements gain ground nationwide. China Leverages Rare Earths and Military Power: Beijing is delaying rare earth shipments and failed to buy U.S. soybeans despite promises. A shortage of yttrium is emerging, although a U.S. company in Indiana will begin refining it next month. Meanwhile, China sent Coast Guard ships into Japanese waters and unveiled a new aircraft carrier, signaling rising tensions in the Pacific. Trump's Narco-Terror Operation Continues: Another drug boat was destroyed in the Pacific under Operation Southern Spear. Critics in the U.K. claim the strikes violate international law, though the White House says cartels qualify as narco-terrorists and legitimate targets. Britain's Leader Shifts Right on Immigration: Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced sweeping new restrictions, ending cash allowances for asylum seekers, requiring work, and imposing twenty-year waits for permanent residency. Bryan notes the political pressure building across Europe as voters demand tougher borders. Saudi Crown Prince to Visit Washington: The White House may sell F-35 fighter jets to Saudi Arabia, though U.S. intelligence fears technology theft and regional imbalance with Israel. Economic deals may also emerge as Riyadh seeks to follow through on earlier promises. Good News from Southeast Asia: Trump brokered a fresh ceasefire between Thailand and Cambodia after border clashes. Cambodia is moving closer to the United States, granting new access to a key naval base and pushing out Chinese crime networks.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Trump tariff cuts grocery prices, American Family Survey cost of children, migrant truck drivers CDL revocation, DHS Charlotte surge, Tom Homan Catholic bishops border, Seattle socialist mayor police abolition, Los Angeles socialist candidate Rae Huang, James Carville Supreme Court expansion, GOP infighting Epstein files, China rare earth yttrium shortage, Senkaku Islands China Coast Guard, Operation Southern Spear drug boats, UK asylum overhaul Starmer, Saudi Arabia F-35 visit, Cambodia Thailand ceasefire

    Every time the Epstein story resurfaces, the same script plays out: politicians scream, narratives clash, and the core truth gets buried — kids were exploited, and adults with power were protected. These newly released Epstein emails aren't about elections. They're about behavior, complicity, and silence, and what happens when institutions value reputation more than justice. In this special episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski sits down with former FBI Behavioral Program Chief Robin Dreeke to examine the emails through the lens investigators actually use: motive, manipulation, credibility, and psychological patterning. Robin breaks down how predators like Jeffrey Epstein use written claims — including the inflammatory line that Donald Trump “knew about the girls” — as tools. Tools to control, to threaten, to deflect, and to bind powerful people to their silence. And he explains why “no evidence of participation” is not the same thing as “no ethical concern.” Tony and Robin dissect why the public doesn't trust the Department of Justice anymore — especially after years of sweetheart deals, sealed documents, withheld records, and a death that raised more questions than answers. They explore how secrecy becomes institutional muscle memory, not because of conspiracy, but because of bureaucratic fear. They also dive deep into the bipartisan push for the Epstein Files Transparency Act, a rare moment when Congress finally seems to agree on one thing: the American public deserves the truth. This episode is not about defending politicians. It's not about attacking them either. It's about right versus wrong, victims versus power, and the behavioral reality that institutions protected the wrong people for far too long. No spin. No political bait. Just the psychology behind the silence — and why these emails matter more than anyone wants to admit. #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #RobinDreeke #EpsteinEmails #EpsteinCase #DOJ #FBI #InstitutionalSecrecy #PsychologyOfPower #Accountability Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    For the first time in years, something unprecedented is happening: Congress — left and right — finally agrees on one thing. The public deserves the truth about Epstein, his network, and the adults who may have enabled him. And these new emails may be the spark that forces the dam to break. In this powerful episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski and former FBI Behavioral Analysis chief Robin Dreeke dissect the newly uncovered Epstein communications and the bipartisan push for full transparency. Tony asks the questions the public is asking: Why is DOJ still slow-walking Epstein files? Why are survivors being told “there's nothing more to release”? And why does every revelation feel like institutions protecting themselves instead of protecting the victims? Robin explains what a transparency-focused response would look like if the system truly cared about justice. Victim-centered, evidence-driven, politically neutral, and behaviorally grounded. He also breaks down the internal panic that happens inside agencies when Congress demands a 30-day document release — and the chaos that erupts behind the scenes. They explore: Why survivors fear the system is still hiding names How politics hijacks cases involving children What loopholes to watch for in the Transparency Act And why the public's distrust is not paranoia — it's earned This episode isn't speculation. It's accountability.

The language prohibits products like beverages, vapes, and gummies containing THC compounds derived from hemp. Those products were widely available and contribute to a nearly $30 billion industry. Among them is the Lac du Flambeau tribe that produces and sells hemp-derived products. The end of the government shutdown also means the clock is ticking for Native Americans receiving health insurance subsidized by the Affordable Care Act. Without action by Congress, insurance premiums for those people will jump significantly after the start of the New Year.

    For a decade and a half, since President Obama's Pacific Pivot speech, there has been a rising tide in the conversation about the need to fix the US Navy's shortfall to meet the challenge of the People's Republic of China.Faced with systemic and cascading failures in everything from surface ship design to maintenance, and distractions as frivolous as Great Green Fleets at sea and as serious as the Islamic State ashore, navalists have been waiting for serious action on the waterfront to match the rising tide of the strategic situation.Rhetorically at least, the second Trump administration came in saying all the right things to give hope that, at last, we would turn into the wind.Are we?Returning to the Midrats Podcast is Chris Servello, CDR, USN (Ret.), cofounder of Provision Advisors PR Consultancy. SummaryIn this episode of Midrats, Mark, Sal, and Chris Servello discuss the current state of the U.S. Navy, focusing on leadership challenges, the importance of communication, and the need for innovation in naval strategy and technology. They explore the cultural issues within the Navy that hinder progress and the necessity for reform in acquisition processes. The conversation also touches on the role of allied navies and the importance of domestic shipbuilding capabilities in maintaining American sea power.TakeawaysThe Navy is at a critical juncture in reclaiming its sea power.Leadership changes are necessary to address the Navy's challenges.Communication with Congress and the public is vital for naval support.Cultural issues within the Navy contribute to a lack of innovation.The Navy must learn from allied navies and their practices.Acquisition processes need significant reform to be effective.Risk-taking and creativity are essential for naval success.Domestic shipbuilding capabilities must be prioritized over outsourcing.The current political climate affects national security discussions.The Navy's future depends on effective leadership and strategic planning.Chapters00:00: Introduction05:04: Reflections on Naval Strategy and Leadership09:51: Challenges in Navy Leadership and Administration14:47: Comparative Analysis of Military Services19:50: The Importance of Communication and Public Engagement24:51: Innovations in Naval Technology and Acquisition Reform30:07: Concluding Thoughts on Naval Future and Leadership32:18: Navigating Leadership Challenges in the Navy34:28: The State of American Sea Power36:42: Balancing Domestic and Foreign Shipbuilding40:52: The Future of Naval Strategy and Technology45:18: The Role of Congress in Naval Affairs48:32: Innovating Beyond Traditional Naval Constructs51:43: Cultural Barriers to Risk and Innovation56:40: Reviving Experimentation in Naval Programs01:00:07: Learning from Global Naval Practices

    For the first time in years, something unprecedented is happening: Congress — left and right — finally agrees on one thing. The public deserves the truth about Epstein, his network, and the adults who may have enabled him. And these new emails may be the spark that forces the dam to break. In this powerful episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski and former FBI Behavioral Analysis chief Robin Dreeke dissect the newly uncovered Epstein communications and the bipartisan push for full transparency. Tony asks the questions the public is asking: Why is DOJ still slow-walking Epstein files? Why are survivors being told “there's nothing more to release”? And why does every revelation feel like institutions protecting themselves instead of protecting the victims? Robin explains what a transparency-focused response would look like if the system truly cared about justice. Victim-centered, evidence-driven, politically neutral, and behaviorally grounded. He also breaks down the internal panic that happens inside agencies when Congress demands a 30-day document release — and the chaos that erupts behind the scenes. They explore: Why survivors fear the system is still hiding names How politics hijacks cases involving children What loopholes to watch for in the Transparency Act And why the public's distrust is not paranoia — it's earned This episode isn't speculation. It's accountability. If the Epstein Files Transparency Act passes, the public might finally see what's been buried for decades — and who helped bury it. #HiddenKillers #EpsteinFiles #TransparencyAct #TonyBrueski #RobinDreeke #EpsteinCase #InstitutionalAccountability #ChildProtection #TrueCrimePodcast #GovernmentOversight Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Every time the Epstein story resurfaces, the same script plays out: politicians scream, narratives clash, and the core truth gets buried — kids were exploited, and adults with power were protected. These newly released Epstein emails aren't about elections. They're about behavior, complicity, and silence, and what happens when institutions value reputation more than justice. In this special episode of Hidden Killers, Tony Brueski sits down with former FBI Behavioral Program Chief Robin Dreeke to examine the emails through the lens investigators actually use: motive, manipulation, credibility, and psychological patterning. Robin breaks down how predators like Jeffrey Epstein use written claims — including the inflammatory line that Donald Trump “knew about the girls” — as tools. Tools to control, to threaten, to deflect, and to bind powerful people to their silence. And he explains why “no evidence of participation” is not the same thing as “no ethical concern.” Tony and Robin dissect why the public doesn't trust the Department of Justice anymore — especially after years of sweetheart deals, sealed documents, withheld records, and a death that raised more questions than answers. They explore how secrecy becomes institutional muscle memory, not because of conspiracy, but because of bureaucratic fear. They also dive deep into the bipartisan push for the Epstein Files Transparency Act, a rare moment when Congress finally seems to agree on one thing: the American public deserves the truth. This episode is not about defending politicians. It's not about attacking them either. It's about right versus wrong, victims versus power, and the behavioral reality that institutions protected the wrong people for far too long. No spin. No political bait. Just the psychology behind the silence — and why these emails matter more than anyone wants to admit. #HiddenKillers #TonyBrueski #RobinDreeke #EpsteinEmails #EpsteinCase #DOJ #FBI #InstitutionalSecrecy #PsychologyOfPower #Accountability Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    In this powerful episode of The MisFitNation, host Rich LaMonica welcomes Dr. Eugene Lipov — physician, researcher, and the world's leading expert on using Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB) to treat post-traumatic stress. Dr. Lipov pioneered the use of SGB for trauma recovery in 2006, adapting a decades-old FDA-approved procedure into a breakthrough therapy for PTSD. He later developed the Dual Sympathetic Reset (DSR) protocol, which has helped thousands experience rapid and life-changing relief. Motivated by his own family's experience with trauma, Dr. Lipov is also a global advocate for redefining PTSD as Post-Traumatic Stress Injury (PTSI) — a term that removes stigma and reflects the biological nature of the condition. His work has been featured in The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, Fox National News, NBC, and numerous medical journals. He has testified before Congress, worked with military organizations worldwide, and continues to push trauma treatment into a new era of science-backed innovation.

    In this Veterans Day–recorded episode of Golf and Politics, Matt and Rob welcome back their very first guest — former Congressman Bob Ney — for a brutally honest deep dive into Congress, shutdown politics, fiscal chaos, and the future of American governance. Before the politics, the guys honor the veterans in their lives and share personal stories that set the tone for an episode rooted in gratitude and perspective. Then they get into the big questions:     • Why does the government keep shutting down?     • Does “fiscal responsibility” mean anything anymore?     • Could Congress ever pass a real budget again?     • How have primaries, social media, and Trump reshaped incentives in Washington?     • Is Chuck Schumer stronger or weaker after this shutdown showdown?     • What happens when one party centralizes power — and the other eventually gets it back? Bob Ney brings decades of insider perspective — from the Contract with America to balancing the budget in the 1990s to the Patriot Act fight — and breaks down how Congress lost its power and how it could regain it.

    The future of AI may be decided in backyards. Data Centers—the sprawling facilities designed to support the massive computing required to train and run AI models—are being built across the country. One estimate sees more than $1 trillion dollars in capital spending on data centers in the next four years. And they use electricity—a lot of it. While data centers can bring construction jobs,  tax revenue, and economic development to their communities, they also bring complaints about power and water usage, noise pollution, and architectural blight.Debates are raging from town halls to the halls of Congress. Yes, politicians want the US to lead the world in AI, but elected officials, particularly local ones, are hearing from constituents concerned about data centers, including the potential to raise electric bills. The decisions being made right now in places like Northern Virginia, Umatilla, Oregon, and Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin, will determine whether AI infrastructure is scaled quickly, or whether a backlash slows it down. If done right, data centers can bring world-class tech capabilities, lower electricity prices, energy abundance, and local tax revenue. Done poorly, we see working class Americans paying more for power, the electric grid struggling, and the potential for the American public to turn sour on data canters en masse.So what do people need to know about data centers to make informed decisions? What really is the impact of data centers on water and electricity? What should policymakers in Washington do, if anything, about these debates? And are there ways to balance legitimate local concerns without hamstringing a strategic imperative?Evan is joined by Asad Ramzanali, Director of Artificial Intelligence & Technology Policy at the Vanderbilt Policy Accelerator.

    Newt talks with IRS special agents Gary Shapley and Joseph Ziegler about their new book, “The Whistleblowers vs. The Big Guy: Two Special Agents, the Biden Crime Family, and a Corrupt Bureaucracy.” They describe the testimony they gave before Congress about political interference and obstruction in the Hunter Biden criminal case, revealing how the IRS, FBI, and DOJ failed to act independently. Despite overwhelming evidence, they faced retaliation and isolation for exposing corruption. Their investigation led to Hunter Biden's federal conviction, but President Joe Biden later pardoned his son and issued blanket pardons to other family members. Shapley and Ziegler's experiences are detailed in their new book, profits of which will support future whistleblowers. They emphasize the importance of treating all taxpayers equally and ensuring no preferential treatment in investigations. Their actions highlight the potential for citizens to influence government and address corruption, embodying the American tradition of truth and justice.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Rep. Seth Moulton (D–Mass.) is not one to shy away from criticism of his own party. He made waves in the past when he insisted that the Democrats' approach to dialogue on transgender issues was stifling. Moulton has also been vocal about the need for generational change in an aging Washington.  This time, the Massachusetts congressman is speaking out about the deal that ended the longest government shutdown in history. And how Senate Democrats missed an opportunity to extend the Affordable Care Act subsidies “If Republicans were somehow gaining advantage here, if the polling was shifting in their favor, if they had done well in the elections last week, then I might say,'Okay, I get it. It doesn't seem like this strategy is working, so let's give up,'” says Moulton. “But Schumer has just snatched defeat from the jaws of victory.” Moulton is a veteran who served four tours in Iraq as a Marine Corps infantry officer. He's also challenging Massachusetts Senator Ed Markey for his seat in the 2026 midterms, facing competition from Rep. Joe Kennedy III in the process.  “Senator Markey is a good guy,” says Moulton. “He served the country for half a century. I mean, he's been in office longer than I've been alive. He and I agree on many of the issues. He says the right things, he has great press releases, but how much has he actually gotten done?” In this week's episode of The Conversation, Moulton talks with POLITICO's Dasha Burns about how Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is failing his party, why age needs to be a major consideration for lawmakers and how Senate Democrats could have done more to guarantee access to affordable healthcare. Plus, POLITICO's Senior Congressional editor Mike DeBonis joins Dasha to discuss how the shutdown finally came to an end, which party ended up better off afterwards and how this event may shape Congress in the year to come. CORRECTION: An earlier version of this podcast misstated that former Rep. Joe Kennedy III is running against Sen. Ed Markey in  2026. Kennedy ran against Markey in 2020 but has not announced plans to run against Markey in 2026.

Tony asks the questions the public is asking: Why is DOJ still slow-walking Epstein files? Why are survivors being told “there's nothing more to release”? And why does every revelation feel like institutions protecting themselves instead of protecting the victims? Robin explains what a transparency-focused response would look like if the system truly cared about justice. Victim-centered, evidence-driven, politically neutral, and behaviorally grounded. He also breaks down the internal panic that happens inside agencies when Congress demands a 30-day document release — and the chaos that erupts behind the scenes. They explore: Why survivors fear the system is still hiding names How politics hijacks cases involving children What loopholes to watch for in the Transparency Act And why the public's distrust is not paranoia — it's earned This episode isn't speculation. It's accountability. If the Epstein Files Transparency Act passes, the public might finally see what's been buried for decades — and who helped bury it. #HiddenKillers #EpsteinFiles #TransparencyAct #TonyBrueski #RobinDreeke #EpsteinCase #InstitutionalAccountability #ChildProtection #TrueCrimePodcast #GovernmentOversight Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Bombshell allegations emerge that Queen Elizabeth knew Andrew brought prostitutes to Buckingham Palace for years but did nothing—as a Church of England vicar questions if she had a "blind spot" for her favorite son. Andrew spends his final Royal Lodge days "ranting to himself" while Sarah Ferguson drowns her fears in a purpose-built bar called The Doghouse, talking about "dark forces" targeting them. The disgraced royal must now bow to his own daughters and faces demands from Congress while making outrageous staffing demands before his Sandringham exile. Sarah reportedly considers selling Diana's private letters as a "secret weapon." Meanwhile, Poppygate erupts as Meghan attends a Kardashian party without a remembrance poppy while Harry wears one, sparking fury. William reveals Charles denied his request to scale back duties during "the hardest year" and feels betrayed by the Beckham knighthood timing that stole his Earthshot thunder.

    The Democrats who voted to reopen the government earlier this week have stirred up turmoil within their party, with many on the left viewing it as a betrayal for failing to extend COVID era Affordable Care Act subsidies. Republicans, meanwhile, are up in arms over a last-minute inclusion to the funding package, which would allow senators who allegedly had their phones tapped to sue the federal government for hundreds of thousands of dollars. FOX News Digital Congressional Correspondent Liz Elkind joins the Rundown to unpack the drama on Capitol Hill, and what to look out for as the government gets back to business. Later, Philip Diehl joins to discuss the future of the penny, after the mint officially ceased its production earlier this week. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

    The obscure pool of money the US used to bail out Argentina

    Last month, during the longest government shutdown in U.S. history, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced that the United States had offered to functionally loan Argentina $20 billion. Despite the sums involved, this bailout required no authorization from Congress, because of the loan's source: an obscure pool of money called the Exchange Stabilization Fund. The ESF is essentially the Treasury Department's private slush fund. Its history goes all the way back to the Great Depression. But, in the 90 years since its creation, it has only been used one time at this scale to bailout an emerging economy: Mexico, in 1995. That case study contains some helpful lessons that can be used to make sense of Bessent's recent move. Will this new credit line to Argentina work out as well as it did the last time we tried it? Or will Argentina's economic troubles hamstring the Exchange Stabilization Fund forever?Pre-order the Planet Money book and get a free gift. /  Subscribe to Planet Money+Listen free: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, the NPR app or anywhere you get podcasts.Facebook / Instagram / TikTok / Our weekly Newsletter.This episode was hosted by Keith Romer and Erika Beras.

    On Friday's Mark Levin Show, in Chapter 1 of Liberty and Tyranny: A Conservative Manifesto it emphasizes that the conservative commitment to ordered liberty is rooted in the Founders' principles, such as the social contract and civil society, which foster harmony of interests through accumulated human experience and reasoning for the betterment of individuals and society. There are so-called podcasters on the right who reject this. We can't allow the Tucker Carlson's or Megyn Kelly's to hand America to the left. We need to hold firm to our principles, understanding of the American founding, and decades of discussed values, without falling into traps set by these detractors. Also, a federal judge in Alexandria, Virginia suggested she might dismiss charges against James Comey for lying to Congress and Letitia James for bank fraud, citing skepticism over the legitimacy of interim U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan's appointment by AG Pam Bondi. Bondi ​has ​full ​authority ​to ​appoint ​anyone ​who ​meets ​the ​U.S. ​attorney ​qualifications. ​This is pathetic, the left has destroyed our judicial system. Later, the Democrats are potentially poised for another government shutdown opportunity in January, targeting airline services, TSA, FAA, and military funding to inflict pain on Americans again. These routine continuing resolutions might become quarterly battles because of the Democrats. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
