    Rick Wilson's The Enemies List
    Trump's Private Property + The Crypt-Keeper

    Rick Wilson's The Enemies List

    PART I The guy who is eternally on the Enemies List, the 45th and 47th president -- aka Vladdy's Boy, aka Don the Con, aka F*ckboi Von Clownface -- is getting an extra special mention this week. Every week, there are a million reasons to nominate Trump the Chump, but this week, Trump revealed his pathetic nature for all of MAGA to bear witness. First, let us tee this up. Virginia Guiffre -- who was a survivor of Epstein, Maxwell, Prince Andrew, and others -- was critical to getting justice for the hundreds of victims. In a clip that went viral on Tuesday, Trump told reporters that he *knew* who Virginia Guiffre was, that she'd worked as a spa attendant at Mar-a-Lago, and that Epstein had "stolen" her from him. What Trump is really saying is that Guiffre was property, he was aware that she was being trafficked, and groomed/raped by sexual predators. He didn't care about Guiffre, only his ego, and that Epstein had gotten one over on him.  Trump is no stranger to who or what Epstein was -- he joked that Epstein "liked girls on the younger side" and that, in Trump's 50th birthday card to Epstein, they shared a "wonderful secret." Distractions are still being volleyed against the wall -- but Trump knows he's hiding who he is and, this time, he can't outrun it.   PART II Emil Bove -- who looks like a part-time crypt-keeper -- was confirmed to the federal bench this week, and it's plain as day that Trump will put Bove onto the Supreme Court bench. The Senate was aware that Bove had lied to them and was involved in several DOJ cover-ups, and yet they ran his nomination up the chain. The fact that one president will have seated four of the Supreme Court justices should raise the question: Is this really what's best for America? Bove is a particular corrupt flavor -- there's a MOB lawyer vibe to this guy. (Shut up, John Thune, no one wants to hear you wimper your phony "hope" for what you *think* he will do.) There's nothing the Senate won't do for Trump now. .

    In episode 59 of the MOPP we sit down with live high-stakes NLH cash-game player Vlastimil Pustina for an honest, wide-ranging conversation about the emotional and mental evolution required to thrive in high-stakes poker. Vlastimil opens up about his transformation from a carefree, party-fueled lifestyle to one grounded in self-awareness, intentional routines, and inner work. We explore how poker can act as a mirror for self-discovery, uncovering the roles of fear, perfectionism, and overstimulation in sabotaging performance. The discussion dives into the power of mindfulness, the importance of emotional regulation, and how understanding one's inner critic and managing dopamine are critical for sustained growth. They also examine the differences between online and live play, how ADHD can be a strength when understood properly, and why recovery routines and setting boundaries are essential for long-term success. Whether you're looking to move up in stakes, improve your mindset, or simply reconnect with the love of the game, this episode offers a deeply human look at poker as a path to self-mastery.

    Today's Headlines: President Trump is throwing distractions at the Epstein scandal, including threatening the Washington Commanders' stadium plans unless they revert to the "Redskins," and releasing 240,000 sealed FBI files on MLK Jr.'s assassination—despite opposition from King's family. Meanwhile, Speaker Mike Johnson has delayed a vote on releasing Epstein-related DOJ files until after summer recess. Trump also banned Wall Street Journal reporters from his Scotland trip, revived “Russiagate” claims with help from DNI Tulsi Gabbard, and posted AI memes of Obama being arrested—all while still being a convicted felon. On the economy, new tariffs are pushing up Walmart prices on essentials like coffee and kitchenware, while Amazon is hiking prices on hundreds of goods even after promising not to. DHS is expanding immigrant detention to military bases in New Jersey, Indiana, and even doubling capacity at Guantanamo. The EPA is slashing jobs at its science research office to save $750 million. Former officer Brett Hankison was sentenced to nearly 3 years in prison for excessive force in the Breonna Taylor raid—despite DOJ recommending no jail time. Lastly, the Pentagon is pulling all 700 Marines from Los Angeles after Trump's militarized response fizzled out.
