SEASON 4 EPISODE 23: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: Here we go again. Trump is talking about his own mortality or career mortality or heaven or all of the above… AGAIN at the same time he’s talking about declaring insurrections and jailing more political opponents, like Mayor Johnson and Governor Pritzker and any one of a dozen judges including at least one he appointed – not prosecuting them, just jailing them - and, as if it could GET any worse, he specifically segued from the issue of wanting to prove to God that he’s been good to how great all those weapons are at his naval base. The missiles are flying, hallelujah, hallelujah. Plus he's written: “Chicago Mayor should be in jail for failing to protect Ice Officers! Governor Pritzker also." Look, you and I know it should be TRUMP in jail because he’s not only broken laws, he’s nearly COLLECTED THE COMPLETE SET of broken laws. But the process of convincing Trump that he's not crazy, that his predictions are coming true, that Portland is ablaze, is how Stephen Miller and the others manipulate him into eroding American democracy a little more every damn day. And this has worked since at least 2016 and I was told about it by Ed Rollins in 2017. It's the Trump personal feedback loop. And when the interruptors in that loop get in the way, they get bought out and destroyed. CNN first, The Washington Post, and now CBS News and the "B" stands for "Bari Weiss" who once told The Federalist Society that it was ok if it didn't believe her and her wife's marriage was legal because they all shared what really mattered: a desire for lower taxes. Let me expand upon the death of CBS News and her disastrous debut at its helm by retelling the story of the miniature version enacted at the CBS flagship station in LA when I worked there in 1991: The Mystery Of The Broken Number 3 CBS Pencils. B-Block (37:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: What is wrong with these dweeb MAGAs? Ken Paxton can't keep his pants on, every other day there's some new story causing his wife to again decide to divorce him, and he's just announced "undercover operations" against leftists. Hey, Pal, if you did anything BESIDES undercover operations you wouldn't be dismissed as a sex pest. Poor Derrick Van Orden continues his descent: now he's yelling at people for not learning how the Senate votes the way he learned about it in the 4th Grade (all of what he learned was wrong). And the Bad Bunny Super Bowl blowback reaches Marjorie Taylor Greene who demands a law making English the official language which is going to be trouble for her since she doesn't speak it. C-Block (45:00) THURSDAYS WITH THURBER: It's one of those weeks, plus my back is gone, one of my eyes is fighting me: it's time to bring back the first Thurber story I ever read aloud to an audience, the oddly soothing "A Box To Hide In."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As the Supreme Court opens its new term, it hears a case that could reshape how federal candidates challenge state election laws. At issue: is whether states can accept mail-in ballots up to 14 days after Election Day, and whether federal candidates have standing to challenge those rules.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: 3:05pm- According to documents discovered by FBI Director Kash Patel, former Special Counsel Jack Smith tracked the private communications of several Republican Senators and Congressmembers as part of his investigation into the January 6th riots at the U.S. Capitol. Brooke Singman of Fox News writes that Smith's “Arctic Frost” team tracked the phone calls of Lindsey Graham (SC), Marsha Blackburn (TN), Ron Johnson (WI), Josh Hawley (MO), Tommy Tuberville (AL), and others. In response to the revelation, President Donald Trump referred to Smith as a “sleazebag” and a “bad guy” who tried to ruin people's lives. 3:15pm- The ladies of The View hypothesized that the Trump Administration's National Guard utilization to crackdown on violent crime in cities like Washington D.C., Los Angeles, Memphis, and Chicago is really a ploy to cancel future elections. What? 3:40pm- The morning show won't play clips of Rich on Fox News—so we will! Plus, Matt goes to Seattle. Why did everyone there have a lumberjack beard? 3:50pm- Pork Roll or Taylor Ham…or Neither? During a recent interview, Mikie Sherrill—the Democratic nominee for Governor of New Jersey—declared that “nobody wants pork roll” and that it is “gross.” 3:55pm- Ever wonder about the history of Taylor Ham/Pork Roll? In 1906 the Pure Food and Drug Act was enacted. One of its main purposes was to prevent misleading or inaccurate labeling of food products. After the law took effect, federal regulators determined that John Taylor's “prepared ham” product didn't meet the legal definition of "ham" because: 1. It wasn't made exclusively from the hind leg of a pig (as true ham must be), and 2. It contained added sugar, spices, and preservatives, making it more of a processed pork roll than a traditional cured ham.

Independent investigative journalism, broadcasting, trouble-making and muckraking with Brad Friedman of BradBlog.com

Today's episode uncovers a sweeping look at the deep state, election integrity, and corruption at the highest levels. From Wisconsin's voter rolls and noncitizens illegally voting, to declassified CIA intel on Biden family dealings in Ukraine, we examine how federal agencies have allegedly targeted Republicans while protecting Democrats. Hear shocking accounts of child neglect, school board censorship, and the infiltration of criminal networks, including gang and cartel threats against Americans. We break down the decades-long political battles, intelligence manipulations, and systemic failures shaping national security, law enforcement, and the very fabric of democracy. This episode is a comprehensive deep dive into the forces operating behind the scenes and the fight to hold them accountable.

A Waukesha County judge has ordered Wisconsin's elections commission to verify citizenship before accepting voter registrations, sparking a high-stakes battle over election integrity. In this episode, we dive into the fight to keep noncitizens off the voter rolls, examine how millions of illegally issued Social Security numbers may be used to register voters, and explore the partisan battles blocking transparency. We also discuss the broader implications for red and purple states, absentee ballot abuse, and the shadow networks that could influence elections. From federal oversight to local resistance, this is the story of the fight to protect the vote and ensure every ballot counts.

From noncitizens on voter rolls to the weaponization of the FBI and CIA, this episode dives deep into the tangled web of election controversies, political surveillance, and intelligence cover-ups. We explore Wisconsin's voter roll audit, declassified intel on the Biden family's Ukraine dealings, and the growing concern over illegal immigrants and security threats in major U.S. cities. Along the way, hear shocking accounts of child neglect, cartel warnings against Americans abroad, and the ongoing battle to hold political elites accountable. This is a no-holds-barred look at the challenges facing law enforcement, national security, and the future of American democracy.

In this episode of The Tudor Dixon Podcast, Tudor sits down with New York Republican Assemblyman Jake Blumencranz to examine the growing influence of socialism in New York City politics. They take a close look at the controversial campaign of Zohran Mamdani—his positions on sex work, public safety, and the role of government—and what his rise signals for the city’s future. Tudor and Jake also unpack how Democrats are drifting away from their base, the messaging challenges facing Republicans, and why crime and safety remain defining issues for New Yorkers heading into the next election.

Today we'll cover what election results we have from around the state. Looks like the news is mixed at best. Then in hour two we'll visit with Greg Sarber, who writes for his own substack at "Seward's Folly" and also for the Alaska Watchman. We'll talk about his latest piece on journalism and free speech.

On this special Hot Takes only episode, Donna and Orlando sit down for a much needed discussion about some of the hottest headlines in the city. A routine post‑show photo shouldn't become a campaign endorsement—and since it did, they had to talk about the cost. Together, they take a candid look at how a political mailer misused their image, why consent and context matter, and what journalistic neutrality protects for the whole community.Next, they dig into attendance and accountability in Lansing after a Detroit lawmaker missed the vast majority of session days. And finally, they walk listeners through a “protect the vote” petition circulating at store entrances. Although it comes with a friendly pitch, its confusing details and requirements function as voter suppression. Tune in for a conversation on ethics in media, community safety, voter rights, and what it takes to build trust one honest act at a time.For more episodes of Authentically Detroit, click here!Support the showFollow us on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.

Eric Trump joins Todd to talk about his new book Under Siege and what it's really like inside the nonstop barrage against his family. Todd also addresses an allegation from yesterday's interview and corrects the record on a misquote about Charlie Kirk, then lays out a rapid-fire list of the most persistent myths about Trump and conservatives—from “34 felonies” to “very fine people.” It's a candid look at media narratives, character attacks, and why context matters. If you've wondered how the Trumps keep pushing forward—and what Eric thinks must happen next for America—this conversation delivers clarity, urgency, and plenty to chew on. Plus: how to get the book and where to catch the full interview and transcript.

Independent investigative journalism, broadcasting, trouble-making and muckraking with Brad Friedman of BradBlog.com

Today's episode dives into a shocking series of revelations exposing systemic corruption, illegal surveillance, and threats to national security. From Jack Smith's Arctic Frost operation illegally spying on Republican senators and 92 GOP-linked organizations, to whistleblower reports on Chinese absentee ballot fraud, we examine how deep state actors manipulated evidence, targeted political leaders, and obstructed justice. We also cover violent crime and law enforcement failures in Chicago, including assassination attempts on ICE agents by Latin Kings gang members and alleged coordination with local authorities, revealing a breakdown of law and order in Democrat-controlled cities. From political intrigue to national security crises, this episode exposes the urgent need for accountability, transparency, and reform across government agencies. A must-listen for anyone tracking corruption, election integrity, and the threats facing America today.

In this week's episode of China Insider, Miles Yu discusses the accelerating trend of financial flight, and whether the CCP can stem the flow of China's wealthy elite from leaving the country. Next, Miles reviews Japan's Liberal Democratic Party leadership election, the upcoming election for Prime Minister, and China's response to the current slate of candidates and desired outcomes. Finally, Miles comments on the recent purge of Liu Jianchao from China's International Department, and Xi Jinping's efforts to concentrate the CCP's foreign affairs and diplomatic dialogue under a more centralized authority. China Insider is a weekly podcast project from Hudson Institute's China Center, hosted by China Center Director and Senior Fellow, Dr. Miles Yu, who provides weekly news that mainstream American outlets often miss, as well as in-depth commentary and analysis on the China challenge and the free world's future.

A-BLOCK (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: TRUMP SUDDENLY SPECULATES ABOUT LIFE WITHOUT HIM: From anybody else it would be trivia. From Trump this is startling. Buried in an ordinary narcissistic flight: "It'll be very unfair in the future when they (Republicans) don't have Trump to fight for them." That quote, might be the biggest headline Trump has made this year and it sailed RIGHT past the American news media yesterday. What in the HELL did he mean by that and more importantly why did he suddenly acknowledge there is an end, maybe soon? After being MIA for five days – no live public viewing of him, just one video that according to White House time stamps took more than two hours to produce even though it only required him to try to speak for a minute-ten… he EMERGED with what was, even for him, such an utterly bizarre and especially vulnerable admission. He was out of view for FIVE DAYS. FIVE. From that bizarre “please clap” speech before the Generals at Quantico on Tuesday – the Pete Hegseth International Day of Military Hair Care Symposium and Product Sampling – through yesterday morning when he managed to stagger out of the White House, blast a series of non sequitirs at the press pool, and then go to another military celebration for which we have the money even in the middle of his shutdown of the government. Nobody asked: HOW have you been, WHERE have you been, WHAT are they treating you for, WHAT does that "when they don't have (you) to fight for them" quote mean? Because again, as in the week he went MIA at the beginning of LAST month, nobody had a clue what would take a man with compulsive talking disease and an ego so large it has own it zip code, from appearing in front of crowds and cameras for FIVE DAYS. And THEN Trump went in front of the Navy and said he warned about Osama Bin Laden last year, and told Pete Hegseth about it a year before 9/11, and claimed he was president in 2016 but they fixed the 2016 election, but they ran it again and he "got 250." What. In The Hell. Is Wrong. With Trump’s Health? B-Block (27:44) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: A $1 Trump coin? Ten cents per chin? Ian Miles Cheong doesn't think they'll eat his face. Noem and Lewandowski think they'll find undocumented immigrants attending the Super Bowl. And Kristi really has to go to the toilet. THIS IS OFFICIAL BUSINESS! C-Block (38:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Well, here we are. Fifty years ago Tuesday night, at 11:15 PM, I did my first broadcast on an actual radio station with advertisers and listeners. I was 16 and it's not bad for 16 and for the fact that my much older colleagues at WVBR-FM did a superb job of hazing me. And yes, that first broadcast is still extant, as you'll hear.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

PREVIEW: Historic Election of Takaichi Sanae as LDP Leader and Presumed Next Prime Minister of JapanGuest: Scott Harold John Batchelor's conversation with Scott Harold focuses on the newly elected head of the LDP (Liberal Democratic Party) in Japan, Takaichi Sanae, who is presumed to be the next prime minister. Ms. Takaichi's political background is that of a conservative LDP member and an acolyte of the late Japanese Prime Minister Abe Shinzo. Her victory was attributed to two main factors. First, she was the most conservative candidate at a time when the LDP was worried about losing conservative votes to another party that sought to emulate parts of the MAGA ideology. The party viewed her as the best candidate to retrieve those votes. Second, while her competitor was the younger, more liberal son of a former prime minister, LDP voters and legislative members were ultimately "more comfortable voting for an older conservative woman." Additionally, a major scandal involving derogatory remarks posted by her competitor's supporters helped drive down his support late in the race. This is a historic election as Ms. Takaichi will be the first female Japanese prime minister. She has described herself as an emulator of Margaret Thatcher and emphasizes boosting the Japanese economy with substantial spending, including on defense, to enhance the US-Japan alliance.

A federal judge is temporarily putting a hold on Trump's plans to deploy any National Guard units, including troops from California and Texas, to Oregon.  U.S. District Judge Karin Immergut, appointed during Trump's first term, granted the temporary restraining order. Her first order on Saturday prevented Oregon National Guard troops from descending on Portland.  She was not having any end runs around her order on Sunday either, telling Trump's team, "How could bringing in federalized National Guard from California not be in direct contravention of the TRO I issued yesterday?” Meanwhile, Trump is sending Texas National Guard troops to Illinois.  Governor JB Pritzker issued a statement reading:“We must now start calling this what it is: Trump's Invasion. It started with federal agents, it will soon include deploying federalized members of the Illinois National Guard against our wishes, and it will now involve sending in another state's military troops. ​I call on Governor Abbott to immediately withdraw any support for this decision and refuse to coordinate. There is no reason a President should send military troops into a sovereign state without their knowledge, consent, or cooperation. ​ “The brave men and women who serve in our national guards must not be used as political props. This is a moment where every American must speak up and help stop this madness."We will talk about it with iHeart TV and radio political analyst Gary Dietrich.  Karen Dawn, of Dawn Watch, will stop by to talk about animals.  The Mark Thompson Show 10/6/25Patreon subscribers are the backbone of the show!

In today's edition of Words of Grace, Pastor Benjamin Winslett turns our attention to the Great Commission — the lasting instruction Jesus gave His disciples before ascending into heaven. Each gospel record closes with a similar theme: the crucifixion, the resurrection, the commission, and the ascension. Though salvation is entirely the Lord's work, it is … Continue reading "The Importance of Making Disciples"

Dr. Jerome Corsi covers breaking developments in Wisconsin, where a judge has ordered the state's Election Commission to verify the citizenship of registered voters and new applicants — a major win for election integrity and a direct challenge to the Democrats' “Motor Voter” strategy. Dr. Corsi examines:

Syria is holding its first parliamentary elections since the fall of Bashar al-Assad last December -- but the vast majority of the population can't vote and the president is choosing many of the candidates. Also, can the US-led peace plan for Gaza work? We'll hear about the key negotiations due to begin in Cairo and ask whether it's feasible to expect Hamas to disarm. And a bigger question: when does anti-Zionism equate to anti-Semitism? Plus a legendary guitar goes on display in a shop in London.Picture: Voting begins for representatives of Syria's new parliament in Damascus on October 5, 2025. Credit: REUTERS/Khalil Ashawi)

SEASON 4 EPISODE 21: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) COULD TRUMP PASS A SANITY TEST? Warning: this is a PARTIAL RE-RUN. If you heard Thursday's episode, don't bother. But I got such a great response to re-reading and annotating and updating my July 2016 piece for Vanity Fair Magazine on this topic that I wanted to post this as a stand-alone segment in case you skipped it and had time to listen now. The Thursday news-of-the-day stuff has gotten slightly outdated so I've stripped it off. As you know, I don't make a habit of re-posting episodes and I'm not going to start. Again: if you listened to the whole thing Thursday, this is NOT going to be new to you. Don't listen - unless you're trying to memorize it. SO... COULD TRUMP PASS A SANITY TEST? I have grown old talking about Trump's sanity. As I wrote then: short answer? Probably not. This is a layman using professional tools: an actual kind of "triage" test used by working psychology professionals to assess if somebody is injured, tripping, or psychopathic. I had an active therapist walk through the examination and assign the points per topic. It's an important time to review what we knew - or should have known - nine long years ago. Because he was unwell then, too. B-Block (24:31) PART TWO OF "CAN TRUMP PASS A SANITY TEST": We conclude the annotated 2016 piece on Trump's already provable mental distress with the disturbing reality that takes us back to where we began on Thursday with Representative Madeleine Dean's lament: "The president is unwell." C-Block (45:00) THIS IS JUST THE SIGN-OFF: Honestly, there is no reason to listen to this. It's just the credits.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
