In a terrible week for Trump politically and legally, one that may prove to be the worst for him and his administration, something happened in the DC Federal Appellate Court, as his lawyers were deep-fried by a majority of the 10 judges, who now seemed on the verge of letting a major Criminal investigation of the Trump Administration, including AG Todd Blanche and 3rd Circuit Judge Emil Bove, go forward. Popok ties it all together on his latest hot take.

Send us Fan MailHave you thought about the difference between transparency and targeting in our election process? Do you know what it means to choose curiosity instead of falling into contempt? And what does contempt actually look like when it comes to a ballot initiative?In this episode, Alexis pulls these questions apart through a recent incident: a Facebook post that shared the names of citizens who signed a ballot initiative petition. Rather than reacting, she digs in to understand what happened and why it matters. She also walks through how a ballot measure makes it onto your November ballot, from citizen-led initiatives to legislative amendments and advisory questions.No one is saying it's easy to lean into curiosity.

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Executive Editor Natalie Orpett and Public Service Fellow Julia Curlee to talk through the week's big news in national security, including:"The Xi-Quel." This week, Chinese President Xi Jinping arrives in Washington for a three-day state visit—his first to the U.S. capital in more than a decade, and the second Trump-Xi summit of 2026 after the president's own trip to Beijing in May. The pageantry will be considerable: Trump plans to greet Xi personally at Joint Base Andrews, followed by a Rose Garden honor guard, a bilateral meeting, and a state dinner. But the substance is heavier than the ceremony. With a 90-day tariff truce set to expire on November 10, China's rare-earth export controls hanging over global supply chains, a pending $14 billion arms package for Taiwan, and questions about Beijing's economic lifeline to Iran, the two leaders face a crowded and contentious agenda. What can we actually expect from this summit? Is anyone anticipating a breakthrough—or just a managed continuation of what one analyst called a “managed stalemate”?"A Fjord in the Road." On Friday, President Trump announced that the United States, Denmark, and Greenland had reached an agreement giving Washington what he described as “permanent control over security, and all other needs” in Greenland—capping a year of tension in which Trump had repeatedly threatened to take the Arctic island by economic or even military force. Denmark and Greenland insist the deal respects Greenlandic sovereignty and territorial integrity even as it clears the way for a major expansion of the U.S. military footprint and bars adversaries like Russia and China from establishing bases or making “sensitive investments” there without U.S. approval. Does the deal really give Trump the “permanent control” he is touting? And how did a standoff that once looked like an existential crisis for a NATO ally end up here?"Contempt of Court." World leaders are gathering in New York this week for the annual high-level session of the UN General Assembly. In his speech before the body, President Trump reiterated a number of standard talking points, notably claiming to be a peacemaker even as he again threatened Iran with annihilation. But his administration may be planning something more dramatic: according to the Wall Street Journal and Reuters, the administration has drafted sanctions measures targeting the entire International Criminal Court—not just individual judges and prosecutors, as before—that could aim to cut the Hague-based tribunal off from the global financial system. The implications reach well beyond The Hague, raising hard questions about the weaponization of dollar dominance and the geoeconomic fallout for the banks, contractors, and allied governments that deal with the court. What is Washington trying to accomplish at Turtle Bay—and at what cost?In object lessons, Natalie, following in the footsteps of others before, has found a heartwarming use for AI, relatively speaking. Scott continues to nerd out over treaty law and the museums that love it. And Julia has a slightly less uplifting AI story—but one that could come with merch!To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

Mike takes aim at what he sees as a growing tolerance for political violence and hostility toward America on the left, using recent polling, media coverage and some startling examples to make his case. He also revisits the murder of a Mississippi woman and questions how the media framed the story, arguing that the rush to fit a racial narrative can obscure the actual facts of a case. Judge Judy’s blunt “love it or leave it” defense of America becomes a jumping-off point for a larger conversation about whether the country should apologize for its success or continue to embrace the capitalism, excellence and innovation that made it what it is. Mike then sits down with Pastor Michael Youssef to explore the intersection of progressive movements and Islamism, the war with Iran, and the forces Youssef believes are influencing America from behind the scenes.

Picking up in Malachi 1:6 through 2:9, God confronts the priests and His people with a piercing question: If I am a Father, where is My honor? Instead of bringing God the firstfruits of their lives, the people were bringing defective, blind, and lame animals to the altar—handing God their scraps while keeping the best for themselves.In this convicting message, we unpack the truth that when God gets our leftovers, He doesn't have our heart. Whether it's squeezing God into the final five minutes of a packed schedule, giving Him leftover pocket change after our non-essentials, or coasting on past spiritual achievements, we often treat God's table with contempt. Looking through the lens of 1 Peter 2:9, believers today are called a "royal priesthood". How we honor God's name with our time, attention, and resources directly shows a watching world what Jesus is truly worth.Key Takeaways:The Pink Glitter Candle: A personal story about regifting an unwanted White Elephant gift to save money for food and movies—illustrating how easily we hoard our best for ourselves and hand God our scraps.Scraps Over Firstfruits: Exploring how screen time, tight schedules, and leftover budgets creep into daily life, and why a sacrifice that costs us nothing fails to honor God.The Royal Priesthood: Understanding our identity as priests in Christ who represent God to the world—and asking whether our daily lives demonstrate that His name is precious or worthless.The "Governor" Test: Applying Malachi's challenge: If we offered our boss, spouse, or government the same leftover energy and minimum effort we give God, would they accept it?Primary Scripture: Malachi 1:6–2:9 Supporting Passages: Genesis 4:3–5, Deuteronomy 15:19–21, 1 Peter 2:9
What does it actually mean to be strong?In this episode of Inspire Change with Gunter, Gunter Swoboda explores the difference between combativeness and genuine strength, examining how men can learn to equate winning, dominance and confrontation with being strong. The episode looks at five values that patriarchal systems can hand men: territory, hierarchy, acquisition, competition and combativeness. While competition and assertiveness can have constructive roles, they can become damaging when they are disconnected from cooperation, respect and emotional awareness.Gunter examines what happens when the drive to compete becomes a drive to win at all costs—and how that mindset can show up not only in obvious conflict, but in everyday conversations, relationships and disagreements.At the center of the discussion is an important distinction:Being assertive is not the same as being aggressive.Assertiveness allows a person to communicate their needs, boundaries and perspective while still respecting the other person.Aggression, by contrast, can turn communication into a contest in which the objective becomes defeating or overpowering someone else.The episode also explores reactive versus responsive communication.When we react, we often allow emotion, ego or the desire to win to determine what happens next. Responsive communication creates something different: space and choice. That brief pause can allow us to decide how we actually want to communicate rather than simply responding to the emotional intensity of the moment.Gunter also discusses the damaging role of contempt in relationships. When disagreement becomes personal, dismissive or degrading, the conflict is no longer simply about the issue being discussed. The relationship itself begins to suffer.The alternative isn't weakness.It is a different understanding of strength.True strength doesn't require winning every argument.It can mean being able to hold your position while remaining open to another person's perspective. It can mean setting a boundary without attacking someone. It can mean disagreeing without turning the other person into an enemy.Gunter offers practical ways to begin developing this kind of assertiveness and emotional intelligence, including learning to recognize reactive patterns and deliberately creating space before responding.The goal isn't to eliminate competition or disagreement.It's to develop a healthier relationship with them.Because when combativeness becomes disconnected from cooperation, competition can become toxic. But when competition is paired with respect, collaboration and self-awareness, it can become a vehicle for growth rather than domination.And ultimately, practicing assertiveness is not something we master overnight.As Gunter puts it: “Practicing assertiveness is like building a muscle.”The more intentionally we practice it, the more natural it becomes.Key TopicsThe five values patriarchy hands men: territory, hierarchy, acquisition, competition and combativenessThe difference between being combative and being strongHow combativeness manifests in everyday life and relationshipsThe relationship between combativeness, insecurity and ego needsThe impact of contempt on relationshipsReactive versus responsive communicationThe difference between assertiveness and aggressionCreating space and choice before respondingRespectful communication during disagreementPractical approaches to developing assertivenessBuilding emotional intelligence through practiceUsing communication to strengthen relationships and personal growthTakeawaysCombativeness can mask insecurity and ego needs.True strength is assertiveness, not aggression or winning.Contempt can be deeply damaging to relationships.Responsive communication creates space and choice rather than immediate reaction.Disagreement does not have to become combat.Assertiveness allows people to communicate clearly while maintaining respect.Practicing new communication patterns can strengthen emotional intelligence and relationships.Competition can be healthier when it remains connected to cooperation.Chapter HighlightsIntroduction: Combativeness vs. StrengthHow Combativeness Damages RelationshipsThe Distinction Between Assertiveness and AggressionReactive vs. Responsive CommunicationHandling Disagreements with Respect and UnderstandingConclusion: Redefining Strength Through RespectGratitudeWe want to extend a huge thank you to our listeners in Denver and Boulder who brought Colorado to #6 on the Top 10 USA listeners list.

Alexandra Hudson explains that civility isn’t about being polite—it’s about recognizing the inherent dignity of others, even in deep disagreement. She shares how true civility requires moral courage: the willingness to engage in hard conversations, challenge what’s wrong, and still see opponents as equals, while rebuilding trust and connection in the fractured, polarized culture. She calls each of us to make an impact for Christ right where we are, by treating one another with respect. SUPPORT REFOCUS! GIVE HERE!

Because we're all humans who see the world from our unique perspective, it is inevitable that we will experience conflict in all of our relationships. As we increase our emotional maturity we are able to lean into these conflicts to create connection rather than contention. But what does it look and sound like? That's what we're talking about on this podcast. I have lots of examples for you to understand where you are in your journey to stronger emotional maturity, and be sure to check out the show notes below for more podcasts that will grow your capacity and skills for having more emotionally mature conflict.

The survivors said the unanimous committee vote sent a clear message that wealth and influence should not place anyone beyond congressional scrutiny, and they urged lawmakers to keep following the Epstein evidence wherever it leads. The contempt recommendation marked a major escalation in the committee's fight with Black, who had previously appeared for a voluntary transcribed interview but refused to answer questions about NDAs, later skipped a scheduled September 3 deposition and did not produce all of the agreements demanded by the committee. Black has denied wrongdoing and denied knowing about Epstein's criminal conduct, while his attorneys have argued that the subpoenas are unlawful, overbroad and intrusive.The survivors' statement also came as Oversight Chairman James Comer introduced the Survivor's Voice Protection Act, legislation designed to prevent NDAs from silencing survivors of sexual abuse and to require certain trusted adults to report suspected grooming of minors. Comer said the bill grew directly out of the committee's Epstein investigation and what lawmakers had learned about powerful men using confidentiality agreements to suppress allegations. The committee said it had already conducted 19 depositions and transcribed interviews, released about 65,000 pages of documents and obtained Epstein-related bank records. The broader message from survivors was that the Black contempt fight should not be treated as an isolated dispute, but as part of a larger effort to force transparency from people who moved within Epstein's network and to break through legal agreements that may have kept relevant information hidden.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Epstein survivors praise House panel over Leon Black contempt vote | Jeffrey Epstein | The Guardian

Congress escalated its confrontation with Leon Black on September 16, 2026, when the House voted by unanimous consent to hold the billionaire former Apollo CEO in criminal contempt of Congress for refusing to comply with subpoenas tied to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. The House Oversight Committee had demanded that Black produce nondisclosure agreements in his possession, including any that referenced Epstein or Ghislaine Maxwell, and sit for a sworn deposition. Black had earlier walked out of a voluntary interview after refusing to answer questions about NDAs, then sued the committee rather than comply with the subpoenas. Black has said he knew nothing about Epstein's sexual abuse and has argued that Congress is overreaching and lacks a valid legislative purpose for seeking such sweeping private records. His attorneys also contend the committee is demanding information that does not exist and is trying to pry into NDAs unrelated to Epstein.At the same time, Oversight Chairman James Comer introduced the Survivor's Voice Protection Act, legislation aimed directly at the use of NDAs in sexual-abuse cases. The bill would void confidentiality provisions that prevent survivors from speaking about abuse and would also allow other people with relevant information to disclose facts about that abuse. The move came after reporting that some Epstein accusers had signed confidential settlements with associates of Epstein whom they had also accused of misconduct. Comer said the investigation had shown how powerful men could use NDAs to silence survivors, making Black's refusal to produce his agreements part of a larger congressional fight over secrecy in the Epstein network. The contempt vote now allows House Speaker Mike Johnson to send a criminal referral to the Justice Department, while Black's lawsuit against the committee continues separately in federal court.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Congress Battles Jeffrey Epstein Patron Leon Black Over NDAs - Business Insider

The House Oversight Committee voted unanimously, 41-0, to recommend that billionaire financier Leon Black be held in contempt of Congress for refusing to fully comply with subpoenas issued as part of its Jeffrey Epstein investigation. Chairman James Comer said Black's testimony was important because of his long relationship with Epstein during the period when Epstein was engaged in sex trafficking. Black had previously appeared voluntarily for a transcribed interview, but that session ended after lawmakers said he refused to answer questions about nondisclosure agreements. The committee later subpoenaed him for both testimony and all NDAs to which he was a party. According to Comer, Black ultimately produced only one NDA and then failed to appear for a scheduled September 3 deposition. The contempt recommendation now moves to the full House, which would have to decide whether to formally hold him in contempt.Black has fought the subpoenas in federal court, arguing that they exceed the committee's lawful authority and improperly seek private information unrelated to any legitimate legislative purpose. His lawyers also argued that producing the NDAs could expose women who had negotiated confidentiality and had no public connection to Epstein, while accusing Comer and ranking Democrat Robert Garcia of abusing congressional power. Black has denied wrongdoing, denied knowing about Epstein's criminal conduct and said he regrets ever doing business with him. The committee, however, pointed to the roughly $170 million Black paid Epstein for tax and estate-planning services between 2013 and 2017 and to repeated appearances of Black's name in Epstein-related records. More than a dozen Epstein survivors had also urged Black to comply, arguing that the NDAs could shed light on his relationship with Epstein and others in Epstein's orbit.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:House panel recommends Leon Black be held in contempt over Epstein inquiry subpoenas | House of Representatives | The Guardian

Utah Gov. Spencer Cox joins POLITICO's Jonathan Martin at Salt Lake City's Red Iguana for a wide-ranging conversation about his new book, “Off Ramp: How to Be a Peacemaker in an Age of Contempt,” and the forces driving America's political divide. The Republican governor discusses political violence, social media's role in fueling polarization, his relationship with President Trump and why he says he is not running for president. He also weighs in on the Republican Party's future, immigration reform and what it will take to rebuild trust and community in American life.
Popok, in breaking news, reports on the Missouri Supreme Court outfoxing Missouri's Sec of State by finding him in Contempt, which forced him to admit, before being sanctioned, that he will fold and use the Missouri court-ordered 2022 congressional map and not the MAGA-driven, Trump-demanded 2025 proposed map that gave the Republicans a 7-1 advantage. Where the Democrats need every vote they can find to get House control, the Missouri Supreme Court's use of its contempt power to ensure voters are hard is remarkable.

Missouri's redistricting battle took another turn Thursday as the U.S. Supreme Court halted a federal order allowing the state to use a Republican-backed 2025 congressional map, meaning the 2022 map will be used in the November election. Meanwhile, Secretary of State Denny Hoskins faced a contempt hearing before the Missouri Supreme Court over his handling of the competing orders. STLPR politics correspondent Jason Rosenbaum explains the twists and turns of the court proceedings.
Donald Trump unleashed a barrage of angry, unhinged threats over the last few days. He posted a map of all of North America—including Canada and Mexico—under conquest by the United States. He angrily threatened to cut off all U.S. sales of Canadian aerospace company Bombardier, even though it employs many U.S. workers and its supply chains are deeply entangled in U.S. communities. He crossed out the “Mexico” in New Mexico and replaced it with “America.” And he snarled that gas prices will drop below $2 after we “WIN” against Iran, even though he simply cannot get it to do his bidding right now. In all these cases, Trump is threatening things that are never, ever going to happen. The calculation that his voters will be satisfied by this—even as he's failing them so badly across the board—reveals his seething contempt for them with great clarity. We talked to Salon's Amanda Marcotte, who writes well about MAGA psychology. We discuss why Trump genuinely thinks this stuff will sate MAGA, how this reveals his profoundly dim view of his supporters, why it was a catastrophe that the media overinterpreted 2024, and what it means that the culture has moved well beyond Trump and MAGA.

Your influence is shown by the new things people can do after they meet you. The bogus program that builds influencers is a problem. True thought leaders and change makers are rare. Tapping out on the Tate brother's branding habits. Fake influencers and fetishes go together. Laura Loomer also has influence. When human connections are based on false perceptions, there's an audience but no capacity. They envy builders. Loyalty is forged by doing something hard. Penn State is running what? Ohio State and Chy-nah. Penetrating the ranks and doing evil. We don't need no litigation. The firings are moving along nicely. Always follow the money. Give them rope and find where they're tethered. Typically, gossip is their product. Pete is feeling the heat because he's purging the system. President Trump is having trouble with universities. Rutgers U. trains DSA protesters. Who are they really? Influence is not the size of the crowd, but how many actually work. Most people don't identify these problems. Sacrificing Scrunchie. Influence groups can only operate where trust exists. Hate and guilt consumes them. In the contempt economy, fear is an influencer too.
