Donald Trump just named William Pulte as acting Director of National Intelligence, replacing the outgoing Tulsi Gabbard. Pulte is best known for abusing his administration position to ransack the mortages of Trump's enemies for fake pretexts to get them prosecuted and jailed. In today's episode, University of Michigan law professor Leah Litman argues that the office of DNI could be put to even more nefarious and “terrifying” use. Indeed, GOP Senate Majority Leader John Thune suggested it may produce a “weaponized” DNI, a striking admission of serious danger ahead. Senator Tom Cotton curtly refused to share his opinion of the choice. And other GOP Senators said Pulte is unqualified for the job. Given the DNI's power, these objections reveal visible consternation. Indeed, MAGA figures fully expect Pulte to be turned loose on the left. Litman discusses what a “weaponized” national security state under Pulte could look like and ponders whether the rule of law will survive this presidency. Looking for More from the DSR Network?

Today on America in the MorningTexas Primary Results Texas voters have made their choice in several primary runoff elections that could shift the balance of power in Congress in November, and it was also another case of a President Trump endorsement that put a candidate over the top.  Correspondent Clayton Neville reports a longtime GOP Senator is accepting a rare defeat.   Washington State Tank Implosion A search and recovery operation is underway in Longview, Washington following an implosion of a tank involving hazardous chemicals at a pulp and paper mill that has left multiple people dead and injured and nine people unaccounted for.  As correspondent Lisa Dwyer reports, this is now the second hazardous materials incident on the West Coast in less than a week.  South Carolina & Alabama Redistricting News Two states made news regarding redistricting and their upcoming primary elections.  Correspondent Marcela Sanchez reports that the GOP in South Carolina backed down on their plans to redraw their maps that would have split up Democrat Jim Clyburn's district, and a court has ruled against Alabama's plan to carve out new districts what would have helped Republicans.   SCOTUS Rules Against Meta The Supreme Court has ruled against Meta in a case involving social media addiction.  Correspondent Ed Donahue explains.   Union Rideshares You can now look for the union label when you hail a ride in Massachusetts.  Ride share drivers in the Bay State have organized in what labor leaders are calling a big victory for union recognition.  Correspondent Jennifer King reports.   Paxton's Big Victory They say everything is bigger in Texas, and that includes the GOP US Senate primary runoff election between incumbent Senator John Cornyn and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, which became the most expensive US Senate primary race in American history with nearly $130 million dollars spent, and a lot of it on attack ads.  It's expected even more will be spent in the November election battle between Paxton and Democrat James Talarico.  Correspondent Clayton Neville is in Dallas and has a recap of the Texas primary.   Trump's Cabinet Meeting A cabinet meeting scheduled to be held at Camp David involving President Trump and his administration to discuss Iran will instead be held at the White House today.  Progress toward reaching a deal has been murky, with the US striking targets near the Strait of Hormuz, and Iran demanding billions of dollars in frozen assets be unfrozen.  Correspondent Ed Donahue reports on the ongoing negotiations.   Latest On Southern California Toxic Tank Some evacuations have been lifted but potential danger still exists in a toxic chemical situation in Southern California.  Jim Roope reports from Los Angeles that the incident just 6 miles from Disneyland is going to take a while to clean up.   GOP Says No To South Carolina Map Changes The Republican-led South Carolina state Senate voted Tuesday against advancing a new congressional map, ending the redistricting effort in the state for now and in defiance of President Trump.  Lisa Dwyer reports that the move will not eliminate a majority-Black Democrat district represented by longtime Congressman James Clyburn.

It's Tuesday, May 19th, A.D. 2026. 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 Kevin Swanson and Timothy Reed Another British preacher arrested in London Another British pastor has been arrested for preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ on the streets of London.   Pastor Steve Maile was singing, preaching the Good News, and calling on Muslims to be saved when he was arrested by the police.  Pastor Steve told Fox News Digital, "It's called inciting religious hatred — which is false. … The cross of Christ is a message of hope, love, mercy, and reconciliation to a fallen world. ... How could that be hate?" Not much has changed since the Prophet Amos spoke these words: “They hate the one who rebukes in the gate, and they abhor the one who speaks uprightly.” (Amos 5:10) Three Christian pastors killed in Manipur, India The Manipur, Indian Baptist Convention is condemning the death of friend and pastor Reverend Dr. Vumthang Sitlhou, who was shot and killed along with Pastors Lhouvum and Paogoulen in an ambush which took place on May 13th. Manipur State is located in Northeast India in a mostly hilly area, where the percentage of Christians has risen from 19% in 1960 to 41% in 2011, equaling the percentage of Hindus which dropped from 62% to 41%. The Baptist group noted “This senseless violence is a grave attack on humanity, peace, and religious harmony. The tragic loss of such devoted leaders who dedicated their lives to serving God, the Church, and society, is not only a loss to the Christian community, but also to the people of Manipur as a whole.”   The Worldview received pictures of the scene from Christians who witnessed the killings. The Baptist Convention is pleading with the government of India to “seriously look into the matter to conduct an immediate and impartial investigation, and ensure that the perpetrators are identified and brought to justice without delay.” Send a 2-sentence letter to Indian Ambassador Vinay Kwatra, asking that he hold the killers accountable. Send it to: Embassy of India, 2107 Massachusetts Avenue, NW, Washington, DC 20008. Or you can email him: psamb.washington@mea.gov.in Ebola virus outbreak claims 80 lives in Uganda Another Ebola virus outbreak has surfaced in Congo, Africa. So far, 80 people died this time. At least two cases of Ebola have been detected in Kampala, Uganda as well, according to the World Health Organization. That's the worst outbreak since 2020. Those who contract the Ebola virus have a 50% chance of dying. Right-wing Vox Party makes gains in Spain The far-right, nationalist Vox Party gained some ground in Spain's election over the weekend.  The conservative party will be forced to build a ruling coalition with the Nationalists to establish a new government for that European nation. At last count, 15 European nations have experienced a surge in anti-immigrant nationalism. However, that's not necessarily a return to Christian values or pro-life values. Death tolls in the U.S.-Iran War and Russ-Ukrainian War Here's an updated list of death tolls for recent wars. * 3,000 deaths in Lebanon as reported by the BBC. * 1,700 Iranian citizens are reported to have been killed in the recent US-Israeli war on Iran. * Thirteen U.S. military personnel also gave up their lives in this war.   * While estimates vary for the Russian-Ukrainian War, the best estimates we can find are 16,000 Ukrainian civilians and about 400 Russian civilians have been killed in that war. Worse yet, anywhere from hundreds of thousands to 3,000,000 Russian and Ukrainian soldiers have given up their lives in this conflict.  Jeremiah 25:32-33 speaks of God giving nations over to the devastation of war: “Thus says the Lord of hosts: “Behold, disaster shall go forth from nation to nation, and a great whirlwind shall be raised up from the farthest parts of the Earth. And, at that day, the slain of the Lord shall be from one end of the Earth even to the other end of the Earth.” Two teens killed three at Islamic Center in San Diego On May 18th, two teenagers killed three adults at the Islamic Center of San Diego including two staff members and a security guard, reports Fox News. San Diego Police Chief Scott Wahl said that the two suspects involved in the shooting, ages 17 and 19, are both dead from self-inflicted gunshot wounds. He also added these additional details. WAHL: “At about 11:43am, we received a call of an active shooter at the Islamic Center. Within four minutes, officers arrived on scene and observed immediately three deceased, what appeared to be deceased, victims out in front. They immediately began to deploy with an active shooter response into the mosque and adjacent school.” Wahl said the security guard “played a pivotal role” in preventing the attack from becoming even worse. GOP Senator Bill Cassidy lost primary in Louisiana Louisiana Republican Senator Bill Cassidy was ousted in Saturday's primary election. The longtime senator came in with a dismal 25% support.  He had served as a Congressman for six years and a Senator for 11 years. Cassidy was known for both his reluctance to support the Trump agenda and challenging Robert F. Kennedy Jr. during his confirmation to be Health and Human Services Secretary.   Plus, Cassidy was one of seven GOP senators to vote to convict President Trump in his second impeachment trial on February 13, 2021 after he had already finished his first term. The vote was 57-43. Louisiana Republicans will now pick between Congresswoman Julia Letlow, whom Trump endorsed, and State Treasurer John Fleming in the upcoming run-off since neither one secure 50-plus percent of the vote. New acting FDA Commissioner worked as Planned Parenthood attorney The new Acting Commissioner for the Food and Drug Administration, Kyle Diamantas, previously worked as an attorney for Planned Parenthood. Now he says he regrets taking on the role. Diamantas told Live Action that he was assigned a case for Planned Parenthood, and, despite his opposition to abortion, he took the case. However, he later regretted his decision and asked to be recused. Diamantas also confirmed that a review of the Abortion Kill Pill is a top priority for the department. Deficits and cost of living in America are up And finally, the U.S. Office of Budget and Management is estimating a national deficit of $2 trillion for this fiscal year. That's up 15% from Fiscal Year 2025 — the last year for which the Biden administration was responsible.   The Core Producer Price Index for this country has topped 5.2% —on a steady increase since last summer. The Producer Price Index stood at 2% in January of 2024, before the 2024 elections.  Food prices are up 32% since 2020. That's an annualized whopping 4.7% per year — a pinch on the average middle class family.

  Republican members of Congress are sitting in a precarious position this morning, especially those who've gone against President Trump. And now, another GOP Senator is out of his own primary thanks to the President's backing of one of his primary challengers. Inside Sources shares updates on Louisiana Senator Bill Cassidy and Kentucky Representative Thomas Massie. 

Ralph speaks to Dr. Marina Nord of the V-Dem Institute about this year's V-Dem Democracy Report and how the Trump Administration is dismantling democracy in the US. Then, Ralph welcomes Dr. Ralph Estes to discuss corporations' shady accounting practices.Dr. Marina Nord is a postdoctoral research fellow at the V-Dem Institute. She is co-author of V-Dem's Democracy Report 2026: “Unraveling The Democratic Era?”.Only six countries during the 21st century have registered larger one-year drops on the aggregate Liberal Democracy Index [than the United States] —and all of them are coups. If you look at the last almost 250 years (so for which we have data going back to 1789), there were only thirty-five instances of more rapid dismantling of democracy—almost all of them were either military coups or international interventions.Dr. Marina NordWe do not measure [Trump's] words. We measure how institutions function de facto. And what is a lot more important for us is not only what he says, but how other institutions (checks and balances) function to constrain him. And one of the things that we see, for example, is that Congress is not constraining him in any way. And this is very, very serious, because if you have a President who violates the law, who violates the Constitution, you should have the judiciary who stand up, the Supreme Court who should stand up to protect the Constitution. You should have the Congress who is not allowed to [abdicate power to the executive]. And this is something that is very, very concerning, a lot more concerning than what Trump is saying. What I find a lot more concerning is that there are no checks and balances to constrain him.Dr. Marina NordWhen looking at the data, we also looked at the countries who managed to stop autocrats similar to Trump. And we tried to analyze which factors contributed to stopping democratic backsliding and turning it around. So research shows that, of course, there is no single recipe, but there are several combinations of factors that may help. One of them is: use whatever institutional safeguards that you still have in the United States…The second thing that we know that still works quite well is robust societal action. And by that we mean not only demonstrations similar to the No Kings protests, but sustained protests, mass pro-democracy protests…And then, of course, one of the things that still should be a possibility to turn things around is the midterm elections.Dr. Marina NordDr. Ralph Estes is Emeritus professor of business and accounting at American University in Washington, D.C., co-founder and vice president of The Center for Advancement of Public Policy, and Emeritus Trustee at the Institute for Policy Studies. He is the author of several books, including Tyranny of the Bottom Line: Why Corporations Make Good People Do Bad Things and Fight the Corpocracy, Take Back Democracy: A Mad As Hell Guide for the 99%.The public has no way of fairly evaluating a corporation except through the press, what it sees in corporate press releases and their claims about being, for example, environmentally responsible and very favorable to customers. And there are no measures on that. Corporation doesn't give us any. Corporation produces a set of financial statements. You won't know how relevant those financial statements are to you and me. They're not relevant at all… In terms of social performance, there's nothing in the corporate reports, the formal reports, that is reliable. Again, you're stuck with what the corporation claims or what the politicians who are lobbying for contributions will admit corporations do… But this is a problem. If the corporation doesn't report it, if the citizens don't know about it, the politicians can try to do something, but they have to start from scratch.Dr. Ralph EstesNews 5/15/26* We begin this week with a bombshell story from Latin America. This week, El País broke what they are calling “Hondurasgate,” an expose centering on leaked audio recordings of conversations between President Donald Trump, Argentinian President Javier Milei and former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández – who was convicted and sentenced to 45 years in prison on drug trafficking charges in the U.S. but pardoned by Trump last year. In these leaked recordings, the three current and former heads of state discuss the creation of a “channel of spreading fake news with the intention of misinforming and destabilizing” Leftist governments in the region, including those of Gustavo Petro in Colombia and Claudia Sheinbaum in Mexico. According to this report, the leaks reveal the involvement of another world leader – Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu – in the decision to pardon Hernández. El País writes the leaks prove the pardoning of Hernández was “not a gesture of clemency, but the down payment of a broader agreement.” Expect more damning information to come out as more recordings are unearthed, even if so far the American media has largely blacked out this stunning story.* At the same time the Trump administration is seeking to subtly undermine governments like Mexico's, they are executing considerably less subtle covert operations there as well. On March 28th, an explosion blew up the car of alleged narco Francisco Beltran just outside Mexico City. CNN now reports that, while “Mexican authorities have maintained extreme secrecy around the explosion,” multiple sources confirm that this was “a targeted assassination,” carried out by the CIA. Not only that, this operation is reportedly just one of several assassinations carried out by the CIA against rank-and-file cartel members on foreign soil which began last year. Troublingly, CNN notes these operations could be illegal under Mexican law, which prohibits foreign agents from participating in law enforcement operations without the express permission of the federal government. Omar Garcia Harfuch, Mexico's Secretary of Security released a statement indicating that the Mexican government has not granted any such permission, writing “The Government of Mexico categorically rejects any version that seeks to normalize, justify, or suggest the existence of lethal, covert, or unilateral operations by foreign agencies on national territory.”* One ironic aspect of the joint right-wing destabilization effort and CIA covert operations campaign both currently underway in Mexico is the fact that the Sheinbaum government has affected a stunning reduction in murders throughout the country. According to Mexico Solidarity Media, the daily average of intentional homicides has been reduced by 40% between the beginning of the Sheinbaum administration in October 2024 and April 30, 2026, with that last month hitting the lowest level in over a decade – comparable in fact to the United States. We can only hope that Sheinbaum is able to stay the course and continue to drive down the murder rate while simultaneously avoiding the destabilization campaigns being waged against her government.* In Colombia, another state targeted in the Hondurasgate plot, Ivan Cepeda continues to consolidate progressive forces in that country ahead of the presidential election, aiming for a first round victory. This week, Luis Gilberto Murillo, a center-left presidential candidate, dropped out and endorsed Cepeda. While Murillo never rose very high in the polls, he has held high positions in the Colombian government – including Minister of Environment and governor of the department of Choco as well as Colombia's ambassador to the United States and later foreign minister under Gustavo Petro.Colombia One notes that this is the second such withdrawal in recent weeks, with Senator Clara López doing the same, indicating a serious intention among the progressive forces in Colombia to stave off a second round of the presidential election, which could see the right-wing consolidate against Cepeda in a way they have thus far been unable to do ahead of the first round.* Meanwhile, El Salvador's Nayib Bukele, a standard bearer for the Latin American Right and a close ally of President Trump, is mired in a new scandal involving his dealings with the MS-13 gang and his ensuing attempts to silence the press. According to PBS, last month the Salvadoran outlet El Faro, in conjunction with PBS FRONTLINE released a documentary titled The Deal: Trump, Bukele & the Gangs of El Salvador, which “uncovered evidence that Bukele's administration had offered privileges to gang leaders in prison in exchange for a reduction in homicides and voter support in territories the gangs controlled.” Now, in retaliation for publishing this story, Bukele has reportedly “frozen the personal assets of two of [El Faro's] shareholders,” including editor-in-chief Carlos Dada who said in a press conference that “These are not fiscal measures…They are political measures trying to silence us.” This article notes that the facts presented in The Deal are particularly damning to Bukele, because of his public claims that he “would never negotiate with gangs” because it would grant them legitimacy. Just as it is ironic that the Trump administration is seeking to destabilize the Mexican government while it dramatically reduces murders, so too is it ironic that it is seeking to bolster the Bukele regime even as it carries out secretive deals with the very gangs the U.S. claims to be fighting.* In a wholly different part of the world, the centrist Labour Party government of Keir Starmer in the UK is teetering on the brink of collapse. Starmer's popularity has been declining precipitously ever since he entered office, but the crisis of confidence from within his own party accelerated after the disastrous results of the May 7th local elections. Now, according to CNN, over 100 members of his party in Parliament are calling for him to resign, but the only way to trigger a leadership challenge is for at least 81 Labour MPs to coalesce around a single challenger – and as yet, none have crossed that threshold. Starmer himself has refused to stand down, challenging any other claimants to come forward. Health Secretary Wes Streeting has come the closest to openly challenging Starmer, even resigning his post in the government but stopping short of formally announcing a leadership challenge, the BBC reports. For now, Starmer continues to cling to power but each day could be his last at No. 10.* Turning to American foreign policy news, this week the Senate voted down yet another War Powers Resolution on Iran – the seventh such attempt since the war began in late February. What is notable about this resolution is that it won the support of the most GOP Senators yet – Rand Paul of Kentucky, Susan Collins of Maine and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska – yet still failed by a margin of 50-49 because Democratic Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania crossed party lines to vote against the resolution. This from CBS. Even with Fetterman's disloyalty, this vote is significant for the number of Republicans who broke ranks, perhaps indicating a growing unease with the war and particularly its impact on the price of consumer goods, beginning with gasoline and cascading from there.* In more congressional news, Southern states are scrambling to act in the wake of the Callais decision. In South Carolina and Mississippi, state officials have rejected attempts to call special sessions to redraw congressional maps before this year's midterms. But, NPR reports Alabama is moving towards a new map that, like Louisiana, will likely include just one single largely Black, Democratic-leaning congressional district. However, even though some of these states are holding off on redrawing these districts today, it does not mean those districts will be safe tomorrow. And in Tennessee, where the legislature is moving ahead with a plan to do away with the state's majority Black 9th congressional district in a special session – resulting in a revolt by Democrats in the legislature – the Republicans are retaliating by stripping all Democrats from their standing committee seats for “creating disorder,” per StateAffairs.com. Expect this process to get more contentious, and plain uglier, as it grinds ahead.* Next, a story in Fortune highlights the cost of data center construction. According to this story, the nearly 50,000 permanent residents of the California ski resort town of Lake Tahoe – which regularly attracts 25 to 28 million visitors annually – will soon be disconnected from their traditional power source, NV Energy. NV supplies the power to Liberty Utilities, which services the area directly, and NV has informed Liberty that it will stop providing power after May 2027. That power will instead be redirected to data centers, leaving Liberty Utilities less than a year to find another power source. This story notes that “Northern Nevada has become one of the fastest-growing data-center corridors in the country,” with Google, Apple, and Microsoft all having built or planning to build facilities in the area. Gallingly, just last fall NV Energy's director of business development said the company was “eager to serve the new industrial load” but that it would not “impact [their] existing customer base.” This is a troubling preview of what may come as data center expansion continues unchecked.* Finally, in a story that proves once again that corporate greed knows no limits, the Lever is out with a new report on a class-action lawsuit by consumers against “private equity-backed bowling giant Bowlero.” According to the Lever, the suit accuses Bowlero of executing a “‘multi-year anticompetitive scheme to consolidate bowling centers,' which has led to skyrocketing bowling prices, deteriorating lanes, and ‘the veritable destruction of the decades-old pastime of bowling in America.'” The numbers back up this narrative. Bowlero, which had just six locations in 2012, has exploded to 350 today. The company is said to control roughly 35 percent of U.S. bowling revenue – and 95% of all lanes in some markets – as well as acquiring the Professional Bowling Association itself. As with any monopoly, once it had cornered the market Bowlero proceeded to jack up prices, even using AI to do so algorithmically. In a sense, this is a story we have all heard too many times to be surprised, but we can still be shocked by the base greed of corporate executives, even in something as seemingly anodyne as the bowling industry.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Sen. John Braun and Sen. Jeff Wilson challenge the $14.4 billion Interstate Bridge Replacement project, arguing light rail should be postponed until Clark County voters approve operational funding. The Republican senators criticize decision-makers for prioritizing light rail over bridge construction, noting costs have doubled since 2022 and questioning federal transit grants, voter approval, and financial liabilities. They propose building a "light rail ready" bridge first, adding vehicle capacity, and respecting Clark County's three previous votes against light rail taxation. https://www.clarkcountytoday.com/opinion/opinion-delaying-light-rail-offers-best-hope-for-new-bridge/ #Interstatebridge #LightRail #ClarkCounty #Transportation #IBR #WashingtonPolitics #BridgeReplacement #PublicTransit #TaxpayerRights #Opinion

What does it take for a leader to be so disastrous that their own party calls for their resignation on live television? In this explosive episode of Life Points with Ronda, we dissect the complete and utter humiliation of DHS Secretary Kristi Noem during her 5-hour Senate hearing—a political trainwreck that exposed a stunning lack of character, competence, and compassion.   We go far beyond the headlines and into the jaw-dropping moments that reveal who this person truly is. From the chilling story of how she shot her 14-month-old puppy, Cricket, in a gravel pit, to her refusal to apologize for calling two dead American citizens “domestic terrorists.” We expose the shocking cronyism behind a $220 million ad campaign and the hypocrisy of using a $70 million luxury jet with a private bedroom while 100,000 DHS employees worked without pay.   This is not just a political critique; it is an investigation into the anatomy of a failed leader. We break down the key moments, the damning quotes, and the bipartisan horror that unfolded as one of America's most powerful officials demonstrated a breathtaking ignorance of the law and a chilling disregard for human life.   In this episode, we dissect: •The Republican Takedown: The moment a GOP Senator called for her resignation, live on air. •The Gravel Pit: The story of Cricket the puppy and what it reveals about her character. •The Minneapolis Killings: The two dead Americans she slandered and has never apologized for. •The Luxury Jet & The Crony Contracts: The shocking waste and corruption on her watch. •The Habeas Corpus Gaffe: The moment she proved she does not understand the U.S. Constitution.   •The ICE Threat: Her refusal to rule out using ICE agents at polling places.   TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains frank discussions of animal cruelty, human casualties, and intense political gaslighting that may be deeply disturbing to some listeners. Please take care of your mental and emotional health first. If you are ready to see what happens when character fails on the national stage, this episode is a must-listen. The truth matters.   #KristiNoem #NoemHumiliation #CricketTheDog #SenateHearing #Politics #Corruption #LifePointsWithRonda #NoemResign #GOP #BreakingNews

A longtime Lowell High School math teacher in San Francisco has been placed on indefinite leave after parents reported sexist and fat‑shaming questions on ninth‑grade Algebra quizzes, including problems about the cost of a date based on a girl’s weight and a scenario titled “Mr. Chan vs. The Fat Kid.” The district says it’s actively investigating, while some students described the teacher’s style as misguided “dad jokes,” and others say similar content appeared in past classes. Sen. Tim Sheehy helped Capitol Police forcibly remove anti‑war protester Brian McGinnis from a Senate hearing after McGinnis interrupted proceedings and struggled with officers. McGinnis later claimed his arm was broken, while police accused him of violently resisting arrest and charged him with multiple offenses.

Donald Trump just claimed in an interview that the events in Minnesota suggest that ICE needs to use a “softer touch.” He also struggled to create the impression that he's been working constructively with local officials there. While all this is just spin, it reveals an awareness that these events have put him in a politically weak position. Indeed, this comes as Trump's plans for vast migrant prison camps are hitting angry opposition in unlikely places: In a deep red, partly rural county in Virginia; among Republican officials in other states; and even in Mississippi, where a GOP Senator has come out against a planned camp there. We talked to Brian Beutler, who's been arguing on his excellent “Off Message” Substack that Dems need to take charge of debates like these. We dig into the surprisingly robust backlash against Trump on immigration, why the prison camps present a big opportunity for Democrats, and why they must abandon the idea that Trump's 2024 win showed a big cultural shift against immigrants.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

Germany holds the world's second biggest national gold reserves after the US, of which approximately €164bn (£122bn) worth – 1,236 tonnes – is stored in New York. Emanuel Mönch, a leading economist and former head of research at Germany's federal bank, the Bundesbank, called for the gold to be brought home, saying it was too “risky” for it to be kept in the US under the current administration.  “In the interest of greater strategic independence from the US, the Bundesbank would therefore be well advised to consider repatriating the gold.” Source: zerohedge.com Trump Suggests He Can Send $2,000 Tariff Rebate Checks Without Congress  Bessent has also suggested the $2,000 benefit might not take the form of direct cash disbursements.  the Treasury secretary said while he had not yet finalized details with Trump, the “dividend could come in lots of forms,” such as through tax reductions already under consideration—including exemptions for tips, overtime pay, and Social Security benefits, among other deductions.

1. Allegations of Government Surveillance ("Arctic Frost") Senator Cruz claims the Biden administration, via Special Counsel Jack Smith and Judge James Boasberg, conducted surveillance on nine Republican Senators (20% of the GOP in the Senate). The operation allegedly involved 197 subpoenas targeting over 430 Republican individuals and entities, including Turning Point USA and the Republican Attorneys General Association. Cruz asserts that his own phone records were subpoenaed, but AT&T refused to comply, citing constitutional protections. He compares the operation to Watergate, calling it “Joe Biden’s Watergate,” and accuses Judge Boasberg of partisan abuse of power, calling for his impeachment. 2. Government Shutdown The podcast talks about the ongoing government shutdown as the “Schumer shutdown”, blaming Democrats for refusing to fund essential services. Cruz and Ferguson argue that Democrats are intentionally prolonging the shutdown to hurt Americans and blame Republicans, especially Donald Trump. They claim Democrats are withholding food stamps, military pay, and other services to create public pressure. Cruz emphasizes that Republicans have voted multiple times to reopen the government, but Democrats have blocked it. 3. Bill Gates’ Shift on Climate Change The hosts discuss a reported shift in Bill Gates’ stance on climate change, quoting him as saying the “doomsday view of climate change is wrong.” Gates allegedly suggests that while climate change is serious, it is not the most pressing global issue compared to poverty and disease. Cruz uses this to criticize climate alarmism and the policies of the Democratic Party, arguing that radical climate policies have harmed the environment and economy.

1. DOJ Subpoenas and Alleged Political Surveillance Senator Cruz reveals that Jack Smith, Special Counsel under the Biden DOJ, subpoenaed his phone records as part of an investigation into events surrounding January 6th. Cruz was not initially listed among the nine Republican senators whose records were obtained because his phone provider, AT&T, refused to comply with the subpoena, citing constitutional protections under the Speech and Debate Clause. The DOJ reportedly obtained records from Verizon for other senators, including Marsha Blackburn, Ron Johnson, Josh Hawley, and Lindsey Graham. Cruz and Ferguson characterize the subpoenas as a politically motivated fishing expedition, lacking criminal justification. 2. Concerns Over Abuse of Power Cruz argues this represents a dangerous precedent of the executive branch spying on legislative members. He calls for hearings and investigations to uncover who authorized the subpoenas and to prevent future abuses. The operation is referred to as “Arctic Frost”, which Cruz likens to a modern-day Watergate. 3. Meeting with Donald Trump at the White House Cruz recounts a lunch with Trump and other Republican senators, where Trump showcased renovations to the Rose Garden and plans for a new ballroom. The upgrades are privately funded, not taxpayer-funded, yet have drawn criticism from Democrats. Trump also distributed personalized gifts (e.g., challenge coins, golf towels, M&Ms) and joked about naming a room the “Monica Lewinsky Room.” 4. Government Shutdown Cruz discusses the ongoing government shutdown, blaming Democrats for refusing to vote to reopen. He notes that only three Democrats have supported reopening efforts, despite impacts on TSA agents and air traffic controllers. He predicts that retiring Democrats may eventually break ranks to end the shutdown.
