It's a Paul Revere moment, “RFK Junior is coming!” Ben is joined by author and journalist Emily Bass and UCSF Professor Eric Goosby, co-host of the Global Health Diplomats podcast to diagnose and propose solutions to the Trump Administration's assault on US public health. From the hollowing out of the CDC, to vaccine skepticism at the heart of the federal leadership, and savage, unconstitutional cuts to public health home and abroad, they delve into the broader ramifications of these attacks on scientific integrity, US democracy and security. They round upon what could be profoundly damaging political consequences, particularly for Republicans, if the health of their voters' children and elderly relatives is put directly at risk by this willful dismantling of US public health services. And in conclusion, Ben, Eric and Emily explore how to support the emerging regional health coalitions of states, cities and professional bodies to fill the gap. 00:00 Introduction and Guest Welcome 00:50 Recent Developments in Global Health 02:08 Legal Challenges and Public Health Implications 03:18 Impact on Democracy and Public Health 12:04 Interview with Eric Goosby 14:27 Concerns About CDC and Public Health Surveillance 19:36 Future of Public Health and Science 34:46 Potential Solutions and Local Efforts 39:09 Coalitions and Surveillance Systems 44:23 Challenges in Public Health Funding 48:24 The Role of Philanthropy in Public Health 50:37 Political Ramifications and Public Health 56:22 Vaccine Misinformation and Public Trust 58:27 Accountability in Public Health Leadership 01:04:33 COVID Variants and Vaccination Strategies 01:10:27 Final Thoughts and Reflections Emily's Substack: https://substack.com/@emilysbass Ben's Substack: https://substack.com/@benplumley1 Join the Conversation!

The infamous Prince Andrew BBC Newsnight interview—widely seen as a catastrophic PR disaster—came about through months of behind-the-scenes maneuvering. Emily Maitlis and producer Sam McAlister had been pursuing Andrew's team for an interview for years, sensing that his ties to Jeffrey Epstein would eventually demand answers. McAlister, known for her persistence, managed to gain the trust of Buckingham Palace courtiers and convinced them that a sit-down would provide Andrew with the chance to clear his name and demonstrate transparency. The Prince and his advisors, astonishingly confident in his ability to explain away damning allegations, ultimately agreed, believing this would be the definitive rebuttal to growing scrutiny over his relationship with Epstein and Virginia Giuffre.What followed, of course, was the exact opposite: a masterclass in self-destruction. Andrew infamously claimed he couldn't sweat, insisted a Pizza Express outing proved his innocence, and showed more sympathy for Epstein than for survivors. The decision to grant the interview—conceived as a reputational rescue mission—was the result of staggering arrogance and tone-deafness within the royal circle. Palace aides, who expected a controlled narrative, failed to recognize that Andrew's own words would expose him as evasive, entitled, and profoundly out of touch. Far from salvaging his image, the interview sealed his disgrace, forcing him to withdraw from royal duties and leaving the monarchy scrambling to contain the fallout.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-10974711/New-excruciating-details-Andrews-car-crash-Newsnight-interview-revealed.html

It's Monday, August 25th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus 2 arrested in Illinois church arson Authorities in southern Illinois, responding to a call on July 24, have arrested two men in connection with the arson and vandalism of McKinney Chapel Freewill Baptist Church in the town of Marion, reports International Christian Concern. Damage estimates to the property are expected to exceed $300,000. Ethan Lam, arrested on July 30, and Chad Krueger, arrested on August 14, were both charged with place of worship arson and criminal damage to property.  Attacks on American churches throughout the nation appear to be more prevalent in recent years. Romans 1:29-30 says, “They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are … God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents.” Kamala Harris' disastrous appearance on CBS' Late Show Former Vice President Kamala Harris appeared on CBS's Late Show with Stephen Colbert last month promoting her new book entitled 107 Days, reports Newsbusters.org. It was a disaster. Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, tweeted, “Colbert lost CBS $40 million dollars a year because not enough people watched, so CBS canceled it. Kamala cost her donors $2 billion dollars in 107 days and she lost in an electoral landslide. America rejected both of them, so now they're blaming America. Look in the mirror!” Take a listen to Stephen Colbert who makes wildly inaccurate claims about the national American mood and Trump's second term.  It's followed by another characteristic “word salad” by Kamala Harris that doesn't make a lick of sense. Listen. COLBERT: “The national mood is so grim in many ways. And people are so shocked by the abuses and the abhorrent corruption …” HARRIS: “Yep.” COLBERT:  “and the violence against neighbors happening in the United States …” HARRIS: “Yeah. Understandable.” COLBERT:  “by our government …” HARRIS: “Yeah.” COLBERT: “and the free reign being given by Congress and the Supreme Court to this President, …” HARRIS: “Yeah.” COLBERT: “that just, less than a year ago, things were very joyful. There was, there was actually a lot of hope associated with your campaign, and there was a lot, there was a lot of promise that we might actually not only keep this absolute barbarian out of the White House …” HARRIS: “Yeah.” COLBERT: “but also we might actually make progress as, as a country with the type of people that we wanted to see in office, and a younger, more vital …” HARRIS: “Yeah.” COLBERT: “revived political consciousness in America. What do you think of when you look back at that, that time and that feeling?” HARRIS: “What I look back at is, as I said, how people realized the commonality and the collective strength and our collective love of our country. We love our country. And the thing about that experience is exactly what propels me to think about this moment and the future and not look back too much, which is: those same people, they're still here.” For the men of the late night comedy talk shows, the first half of 2025 was an instance of history repeating itself. According to a NewsBusters study, 99 percent of their political guests were on the Left, matching the result for the last six months of 2024. Black pastor rejoices that Black Entertainment suspended its Hip Hop awards show Pastor John Amanchukwu said that revival may be burgeoning in the black community, and that he believes interest is waning in what he described as the debauchery afflicting much of black pop culture in recent decades, reports The Christian Post. Amanchukwu, an author and preacher from North Carolina who wrote the 2022 book Eraced: Uncovering the Lies of Critical Race Theory and Abortion, also suggested the Left has done much to alienate many black men, a trend he claimed manifested during the 2024 presidential election. Amanchukwu, who was formerly a football player for North Carolina University, recently spoke out on his podcast in favor of the decision of Black Entertainment Television (BET) indefinitely suspending its Hip Hop Awards and Soul Train Awards after 38 years. The 2025 BET Awards in June saw a significant drop among the key 18-49 demographic, cratering by almost 50% from the 2024 ceremony, according to TV Ratings Guide. AMANCHUKWU: “BET suspending these award shows isn't a cultural tragedy. It's a long overdue mercy killing. “These ceremonies became annual worship services for filth, degrading women, and the men allowed the women to be exploited.” Proverbs 11:22 says, “Like a gold ring in a pig's snout is a beautiful woman without discretion.” AMANCHUKWU: “It glorified violence and celebrat[ed] ghetto dysfunction. That is the culture that they're trying to push upon blacks. “To see that these award shows are going away, that is a good sign for black America. It means that not enough minorities are tuning in because they have become disinterested. That is a good thing.” Purposeful vacation in Branson, Missouri this fall Want to take a purposeful family vacation to Branson, Missouri?

The man and barrel in the old logo represented "the old country store experience where folks would gather around and share stories." According to Cracker Barrel's own website, the man they eliminated from the logo is based on Uncle Herschel McCartney, the real uncle of Cracker Barrel founder Dan Evins.   Ken Blackwell with the Family Research Council wrote, “He wasn't a corporate mascot; he was family. His values inspired the restaurant's entire culture, and they even named a breakfast plate after him. Now, Cracker Barrel's corporate leadership has erased him. The logo has been stripped down into bland, soulless minimalism in the name of ‘modernization.' But let's be honest: this isn't modernization. It's the same tired playbook we've seen from Bud Light, Target, and Disney … sacrificing tradition to appease activists who never even eat there. And the result is always the same: go woke, go broke.” Shares of Cracker Barrel fell $4.22, or 7.2%, to $54.80 per share in Thursday trading, shedding $94 million in market value. The stock had dipped to a low of $50.27 earlier in the day, representing a loss of almost $200 million in its capitalization. However, it's not just about the logo redesign, but the new menu items and redecorated stores that eschew the chain's old-timey approach in favor of a more modern taste and look.  Some suggest that the woke changes are connected to the fact that the BlackRock Investment Firm holds 3,317,812 shares of Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, which represents 14.9% of the company's outstanding shares. This substantial stake indicates that BlackRock is indeed a major institutional investor in Cracker Barrel, though not necessarily a controlling one.

The sermon explores the aftermath of the Golden Calf incident, highlighting the gravity of idolatry and the people's stiff-necked resistance to God's presence. Drawing from Exodus, it examines Moses' intercession for the people, emphasizing that true salvation isn's merely atonement for sin, but a longing for unbroken communion with God. The message underscores the disastrous consequences of rejecting God's presence, contrasting the allure of earthly promises with the ultimate desire for eternal fellowship with Christ, urging listeners to seek Him above all else and to recognize that true heaven is found in His presence.

US Health Secretary Robert F Kennedy Junior was never going to be a conventional leader, having run independently for President as a vaccine skeptic and a talisman of the ascendant alternative health movement, which sees big pharma as corrupt and processed foods as poisonous. And last week RFK announced that he is cutting half a billion dollars in funding for MRNA vaccine research, the technology behind the Covid vaccine.  So, six months into the tenure of the most controversial health secretary in US history, Piers Morgan is joined by former evolutionary biology professor Brett Weinstein, physician scientist and former assistant secretary for health Brett Giroir and  Professor Dave Explains host Dave Farina to debate whether RFK is Making America Healthy Again - or quite the opposite.

Judge John Judge of Idaho firmly rejected Bryan Kohberger's latest legal maneuver to challenge the death penalty, dismissing his claim that Idaho's execution methods—specifically the firing squad—are unconstitutional. Kohberger's defense argued that the state's reintroduction of the firing squad as a backup method for executions constituted cruel and unusual punishment, thus violating the Eighth Amendment. However, Judge Judge ruled that since the firing squad hasn't actually been used in Idaho yet, and lethal injection remains the primary method, the argument was premature and speculative. He emphasized that Kohberger's execution method isn't an active issue at this stage of the proceedings.The ruling marks another significant setback for Kohberger's legal team, which has made several unsuccessful attempts to derail the state's pursuit of the death penalty. Kohberger faces four counts of first-degree murder in the brutal November 2022 stabbing deaths of four University of Idaho students. Prosecutors have made clear their intent to seek capital punishment, citing the heinous and calculated nature of the crime.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Idaho murders trial judge's damning one-word response to Bryan Kohberger's bid to dodge the firing squad | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

The pop superstar, still riding off his Forget Tomorrow World Tour which wrapped in February, has been back on festival stages across Europe, and the fan reaction has gone viral for its overwhelmingly negative tone. After his July 17 performance at Electric Castle in Romania—his first-ever show in the country—angry concertgoers complained en masse, posting on TikTok and Instagram that Timberlake barely sang, coming on stage 45 minutes late, letting his backing track handle most of the vocals, and repeatedly shoving the mic out to the crowd instead of performing his hits himself. “When you pay for a concert but get a mute singer” became the running joke. Fox News reports that clips from the set were flooded with comments like "This performance could've been an email" and "I want my money back and I didn't even go," with a few even calling for refunds. The backlash only intensified after similar footage emerged from his Lollapalooza Paris set, with Cosmopolitan highlighting fans' disappointment and noting untamed complaints littering his Instagram posts.Timberlake has not publicly addressed the controversy. Instead, his touring machine rolled on. On July 27, he played the Olympic Stadium in Baku, Azerbaijan, as part of his JT Live 2025 global tour, with another stop upcoming at ITU Stadium in Istanbul, Turkey, on July 30, according to posts from his official channels and corroborating coverage from the concert circuit. However, his Baku appearance drew further scrutiny, with Zartonk Media critiquing the show as part of a celebrity wave whitewashing Azerbaijan's ongoing human rights record—a reminder of how international bookings can come with loaded political baggage. Fans and commentators alike are closely watching to see if this spate of festival appearances is damaging his reputation in a lasting way.Beyond the stage, Timberlake is reportedly facing a business crunch. A widely shared Instagram reel alleged several of his side ventures are posting significant losses, specifically calling out his beverage brand, though direct financial figures have not been independently confirmed. The long shadow of his 2024 DWI arrest lingers too: Fox News reminds readers that his tour nearly derailed after the incident, in which Timberlake pleaded guilty to a lesser charge and made a court-mandated public apology and drunk-driving PSA.Social media, meanwhile, continues to roast him with memes and disappointment, making this week perhaps his toughest stretch of publicity in recent years. While Timberlake's next steps—both business and musical—are uncertain, the current wave of negative headlines seems likely to have some biographical significance if fan sentiment and professional setbacks persist.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

As the world grapples with crisis after crisis, youth involvement in social change is critical. A generation more aware of the world than any other needs to step up to create a shift, whether it's related to the environment, social justice or economic inequality. However, many of them lack the training and direction needed to create real impact. How can this gap be bridged? Kuldeep Dantewadia, co-founder of Reap Benefit, a social enterprise that empowers youth, speaks to All Indians Matter. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On Episode 989 of Hittin' Season, powered by WHYY, John Stolnis of The Good Phight recaps Wednesday night's awful loss to the Red Sox and tries to get to the bottom of Jesus Luzardo's struggles. Also, Cristopher Sanchez is now a bona fide ace, John goes inside the numbers on what makes him so special. And what are the latest Trade Rumors surrounding the Phils? John breaks down all the latest. Could the Phils move Ranger Suarez or Luzardo this summer? Show Notes: Disastrous loss in the finale Phillies blow a 5-0 lead, HRs from Schwarber, Harper, Castellanos & Stott, Realmuto It's the Phils' first loss in a game they homered five or more times since June 10, 2019. They haven't won three in a row since June 18-20. Blame Realmuto & Luzardo, who had a no-hitter going into the 5th, gives us 6 in the 5th after walking in two runs then serving up a grand slam FELL APART WHILE PITCHING FROM THE STRETCH AGAIN Thomson said they have to keep digging and working on what's wrong with Luzardo, specifically in the stretch Since June 11, opponents have hit .192/.252/.253 with 37 strikeouts and eight walks when there is no one on base against Luzardo. With runners on base, those numbers jump to .339/.443/.576, 16 strikeouts and 11 walks. (Gelb) Gelb says he went back to his old mechanics last night, but it still didn't work Jesus Luzardo says he is working day and night to fix his issues and he says they need to be fixed. He says teams are hitting him hard when he is pitching out of the stretch. He says it is not on JT Realmuto losing that foul ball pop-up. He says he and other Phillies lost it as well. Manager Rob Thomson says Jesus Luzardo lost his concentration. Phillies now 3-8 in Luzardo's last 11 starts They've now given Luzardo 3-0, 4-1 and 5-0 leads in July only to have him lose all 3 of them. He posted a 2.15 ERA in his first 11 starts. He allowed 20 runs in his next two. He made significant mechanical changes when pitching from the stretch, and it's resulted in only a 4.79 ERA over his last nine starts. UNLESS LUZARDO FIGURES THIS OUT, THEIR ENTIRE OFF-SEASON WILL HAVE BEEN A COMPLETE AND UTTER FAILURE The good news is this is a mechanical issue… which would indicate to me it CAN be fixed… but can they fix it in time? PITCH TIPPING: The Red Sox are renowned for doing this. Two pitches later, Story doubled home a run. THIS WAS NOT A STRONG ROB THOMSON GAME Luzardo should have been pulled after the second straight bases loaded walk, but got Jordan Romano up too late… after the game, Thomson admitted that was a mistake Pinch-ran Weston Wilson for Kyle Schwarber in the 10th after Schwarber's RBI single… Wilson, who is not fast… thrown out trying to steal 2nd to end the 10th With Wilson already used, Max Kepler had to face a lefty reliever and watched a called strike three to end the game in the 11th, instead of having Wilson available to pinch hit Rob Thomson on the 5th inning tonight: Said they have to keep digging and working on what's wrong with Luzardo, specifically in the stretch Harper's home run was the 350th of his career Bryce Harper tonight became the youngest of the 8 active players to reach 350 career home runs joining Giancarlo Stanton, Mike Trout, Paul Goldschmidt, Manny Machado, Freddie Freeman, Nolan Arenado, Aaron Judge. Kyle Schwarber's 34 HR are the 3rd-most through 102 games in Phillies franchise history, behind only Ryan Howard in 2006 and Mike Schmidt in 1979 -- both had 36. Cristopher Sanchez is a TRUE ACE: https://www.thegoodphight.com/2025/7/23/24472912/cristopher-sanchez-is-a-real-bona-fide-cy-young-contender WHEELER & SANCHEZ This gives the Phillies a leg-up in the postseason No one can match what the Phillies can do in the playoffs STARK ON SCHWARBER Says he believes Schwarber will be back here 4 years, $100 million is the number… how is he going to have a better deal four years AFTER the first free agent contract??? TRADE DEADLINE LATEST: Jayson Stark on 975 the Fanatic w/ Mikey Miss: Dombrowski wants to use his biggest chips to trade for a big time power bullpen arm controllable beyond this year, Duran, Bautista, no on Miller or Clase If he gets one, it's a right-handed platoon bat that falls into his lap Bullpen arm is more important than a bat Jeff Passan: The Phillies have quietly built up one of the best farm systems in baseball, and president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski's history of trading prospects for impact talent is unmatched. Still, with the Phillies entering a transition phase over the next few years, they aren't likely to sacrifice all of their depth. That complicates their tack at this deadline, because they are among the few teams with the need and capacity to acquire a pitcher of Clase's talent. Same goes for Cade Smith, another Guardian, and the Twins' two frontline relievers, Jhoan Duran and Griffin Jax. Getting David Robertson for $6 million certainly helps matters and serves as insurance against objectionable demands on high-end relief pitchers. And yet adding Robertson plus a high-octane relief arm alongside Orion Kerkering and Matt Strahm gives the Phillies a representative back end. If they can also add a right-handed-hitting outfielder with power -- Adolis Garcia is in the mix, and Luis Robert Jr. would play, too -- it will be a successful deadline for a team whose starting pitching is good enough to carry it deep into October. Ruben Amaro & Jim Salisbury on Phillies Show Very interesting stuff on the show from Amaro (doesn't think they'll be able to get a lock down closer), Aiden Miller might be more untouchable than Painter, and the clubhouse talking about Eugenio Suarez (Salisbury). @JohnnyPhisher: Phillies need a RHH OF @Buster_ESPN: A surprise name has emerged in the starting pitcher market: Dylan Cease, who will be eligible for free agency at year's end. Perception of other teams is that the Padres are intent on making a push for the playoffs, and would use Cease to help fill other roster needs. Mets, AL East teams, Cubs among teams that have talked about him. COULD THE PHILLIES DO SOMETHING SIMILAR WITH RANGER SUAREZ OR JESUS LUZARDO? Jo Adell started slow, but on May 6 he hit a 9th inning HR in a blowout that got things going for him. Since then (67 gms) he has a .907 OPS (top 20 in MLB) with 19 HR (T-6th), and his .563 SLG is higher than any Phillies player. An interesting name: Dane Myers. Plays center field for the Marlins. The right-handed 29 year is wailing on lefties: .324/.385/.493, .878 OPS, 2 HRs, 13 RBIs in 78 PAs, 6 doubles. Would be a platoon guy. The Phillies and Padres are two of the many teams that have expressed interest in Steven Kwan, reports Jon Heyman of The New York Post. Both National League contenders are known to be looking for a left field upgrade.

I'm joined by my authoritative bald-headed friend Josh Martin and Taylor Dahlin (aka Rondi Arradondi) for an examination of the wildest, weirdest Minneapolis DFL convention in recent memory. Omar Fateh is your DFL endorsed candidate for mayor. This convention hit so hard that the most normal thing to happen all day was Scott Graham (congressional district 5 DFL chair) getting kicked out of for allegedly calling a Jewish arena worker a "Nazi" after Graham attempted to smuggle food into the arena. Electronic balloting difficulties, delay tactics, and a mind-numbing series of speeches from 20 park board hopefuls took the convention to the 11th hour before everything fell into place for mayoral challenger Omar Fateh and a slate of progressive, union-backed park board candidates. Helping things along was a disastrous strategic decision from Mayor Frey's campaign to pull all their delegates in a last ditch attempt to deny quorum (or simply cast a cloud over the legitimacy of the proceedings). This tactical decision devastated the chances of a bunch of park board candidates who are Frey's ostensible allies -- because his campaign pulled their delegates from the convention, all of the remaining park board endorsement votes went against the Frey faction. One of the DFL endorsed candidates for park board, Jason Garcia, joins us in this episode.Watch: https://youtube.com/wedgeliveJoin the conversation: https://bsky.app/profile/wedge.liveSupport the show: https://patreon.com/wedgeliveWedge LIVE theme song by Anthony Kasper x LaFontsee

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: 6:05pm- Jimmy Failla—Host of “Fox News Saturday with Jimmy Failla” & “Fox Across America”—joins The Rich Zeoli Show. Jimmy reacts to the viral Coldplay Kiss Cam video, Stephen Colbert's late-night show being canceled by CBS, and attending his high school reunion over the weekend. Failla will be performing at SoulJoel's in Montgomery County, PA on August 9th. You can find information about tickets here: https://radio.foxnews.com/fox-news-talk/fox-across-america-with-jimmy-failla/. 6:30pm- A kiss cam moment during Coldplay's concert in Boston has gone viral—for all the wrong reasons. The clip features a man and woman immediately distancing themselves from one another and hiding their faces the moment they're placed on the big screen. The band's frontman, Chris Martin, joked that they must be “having an affair.” Turns out, they were! The couple was identified as Astronomer CEO Andy Byron and the company's head of H.R. Kristin Cabot. Did the video blow up because it was funny—or because it captured everything people hate about corporate H.R. hypocrisy?

I'm speaking today with Yevhen Lyr, author of the novels, The God of the Steps (Євген Лір «Степовий бог») and The Flood. On June 6, 2023, the Kakhovka Dam in Russian-occupied Ukraine was destroyed, unleashing catastrophic flooding in Kherson and surrounding regions. It is widely believed to have been a deliberate act of ecocide by Russian forces. The Flood was inspired, provoked event by that act of barbarism and is a is a literary tapestry woven from real testimonies, documentary journalism, and fictional connectors. It centres on the aftermath of the destruction of the Kakhovka Dam — an event that devastated parts of southern Ukraine and submerged Kherson in water and grief. The story follows a newcomer to the city, “the Clock smith,” who listens to and collects the stories of soldiers, volunteers, survivors, and locals. ----------LINKS:https://x.com/lyryevhenhttps://store.ukrainer.net/en/product/book-flood/https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/235824462-the-flood----------Yevhen Lyr Discusses 'The Flood': A Novel Inspired by Ukraine's TragedyIn this episode, we speak with Yevhen Lyr, author of 'The Flood,' a novel inspired by the catastrophic flooding following the destruction of the Kakhovka Dam in Russian-occupied Ukraine on June 6, 2023. We discuss the real-life testimonies, documentary journalism, and fictional elements that make up his work. Yevhen Lyr shares his personal connection to Southern Ukraine, his experiences as a volunteer and soldier, and the importance of bearing witness through literature. The narrative follows a clocksmith who collects stories from those affected by the disaster. We also touch on the challenges of translating the novel into Ukrainian, the media's response to the dam's destruction, and the vital role of culture in countering Russian propaganda.----------CHAPTERS:00:00 Introduction to Yevhen Lyr and His Novel 'The Flood'00:08 Background of the Kakhovka Dam Destruction01:52 Yevhen Lyr's Personal Connection to Ukraine04:48 The Challenges of Translating 'The Flood'05:52 Bearing Witness to Man-Made Disasters15:37 The Artistic and Cultural Losses21:04 The Symbolism in 'The Flood'39:56 The Role of Ukrainian Writers in Countering Propaganda45:42 Promoting 'The Flood' and Future Plans----------SUPPORT THE CHANNEL:https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtainhttps://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain----------TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND:Save Ukrainehttps://www.saveukraineua.org/Superhumans - Hospital for war traumashttps://superhumans.com/en/UNBROKEN - Treatment.

Now that President Donald Trump has gotten exactly what he wanted, and signed his major domestic tax and policy agenda into law, what should Democrats do now? Poll after poll has shown the legislation is wildly unpopular, but also that voters don't know a ton about it. The legislation is projected to strip millions of people of health care and food assistance over the next decade. And for Democrats, tying Republicans to the law's most unpopular provisions will be imperative to their hopes of regaining power in Congress in next year's midterm elections. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries joins us to talk about how Democrats plan to respond, both to Trump's big beautiful disaster of a law and to the onslaught of attacks from the Trump administration more broadly.And in headlines: Texas officials said they've confirmed more than 100 deaths from Friday's devastating floods, Trump announced new 25 percent tariffs on Japan and South Korea, and immigration officers staged another massive show of force in Los Angeles.Show Notes:Call 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

Dozens of peaceful protesters, including disabled people in wheelchairs, were arrested last Wednesday in Washington, DC, while protesting President Trump's massive spending and tax bill, which will dramatically slash taxes, restructure the student loan and debt system, and make devastating cuts to vital, popular programs like Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). With Vice President JD Vance casting the tie-breaking vote, Senate Republicans voted Tuesday to advance Donald Trump's so-called One Big Beautiful Bill, which will now go back to the House of Representatives for final approval. In this urgent episode of Working People, we speak with Lorraine Chavez and Chrstine Rodriguez, who were among the dozens arrested for their peaceful act of civil disobedience on June 25, about what's in this bill, what it will mean for working people, and how working people are fighting back.  Editor's Note (7/1/25): Before the US Senate voted to advance President Trump's spending and tax bill, the provision to bar states from issuing new regulations on artificial intelligence for 10 years was removed from the legislation. Guests:  Lorraine Chavez is an educator, researcher, and community leader based in Chicago.

This leads to an examination of the mainstream media's coverage of the public incidents that seemingly showcased Biden's mental decline and the monumental effect his infamous debate with Donald Trump had on the American political landscape (18:39). After the break, Larry and Alex talk about the role family members like Jill and Hunter played in the cover-up and examine the differences in how Trump's current term is reported on versus his previous administration (25:55). They end the pod by discussing the political implications of Tucker Carlson's viral takedown of Ted Cruz and whether or not the U.S. is heading into a war with Iran (47:33).

In this week's midweek podcast, we share the next installment of WNYC's Dead End: The Rise and Fall of 'Gold Bar' Bob Menendez. Yesterday, the former senator began an 11-year prison sentence. In this episode, Nancy Solomon takes a look at a relationship that spanned a key chapter in Bob Menendez's political downfall. Nadine Arslanian was a stay at home mom in Englewood cliffs, New Jersey. Within weeks of meeting the Senator, she was arranging off-the-books meetings with Egyptian generals. And what started as a rebound romance turned into the centerpiece of an international bribery case. On the Media is supported by listeners like you.
