Wear your Sunday best and hang out at the U.S. Capitol building for your chance to chat with a member of Congress. It's a realistic way to meet the people who owe their jobs to our tax dollars, as Andrea explains–based on her own experience–in this week's bonus show. But beware of the sociopathically ambitious, dead-inside Congressional staffers enabling Mitch McConnell, and, before him, Dianne Feinstein, to cling to power long after it was time to step down.  The rest of this week's bonus show, available in full to our Patreon, Substack, and YouTube members who power Gaslit Nation, is the recording of Monday's salon. The discussion includes Andrea meeting up with Tori Amos after her show on her tour for her new powerful album In Times of Dragons, with songs like "Shush" about MeToo thanking Courtney Love for being early warning the world about Harvey Weinstein; why the DNC may be running out of money and going into debt–even though blue wave elections have ripped through the country since Trump returned to power. And we also discuss how to tell fact from fiction in the disinformation war driven by Russia in its war on Ukraine and all democracies.  We look forward to bringing you important discussions in the coming weeks, including Casey Michel, a kleptocracy expert sanctioned by Russia and author of the new book the United States of Oligarchy: How America's Wealthiest Ally with Dictators, Weaken the U.S., and Destroy Democracy and Maya Wiley, President of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, the largest civil rights coalition in America, on how we expand the power of the vote–before it's too late.  Thank you to everyone who supports Gaslit Nation–we could not make this show without you.

THIS IS A PREVIEW PODCAST. NOT THE FULL REVIEW. Please check out the full podcast review on our Patreon Page by subscribing over at - https://www.patreon.com/NextBestPicture We recently reviewed Christopher Nolan's "The Dark Knight," a film that many feel should've been part of the Best Picture lineup in 2008. So, it only makes sense that, as Nolan is once again getting his revenge with another new film in theaters, we revisit the film that was widely seen as the one that took his masterpiece out of the lineup, and that's "The Reader," starring Kate Winslet, Ralph Fiennes, David Kross, Lena Olin & Bruno Ganz. Directed by Stephen Daldry and written by David Hare based on the novel "Der Vorleser" by Bernhard Schlink, this Holocaust drama has become the poster child for the term "Oscar bait" in the years since its release (and was widely seen as such then) as it saw Winslet in another awards magnet performance that the Academy finally decided to give her an Oscar for, produced and pushed by Harvey Weinstein at the height of his powers, the film has not aged well to say the least, certainly compared to the other films it beat out that Oscar season for major nominations including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Cinematography and Best Adapted Screenplay. What did we think of it? Please tune in as Nadia Dalimonte, Dan Bayer, Amy Kim, Will Mavity, and I talk about the film's screenplay, Winslet's performance, Daldry's direction, the score, the cinematography, its awards season run, and more in our SPOILER-FILLED review.

For close to 100 years if you were young and beautiful and talented the American Dream had a specific shape. You went to Los Angeles. You waited tables. You sent headshots. You hoped — you prayed — that someone powerful noticed you. A producer. An agent. A studio executive. In the darkest iterations it was someone like Harvey Weinstein: the man with a casting couch and a contract. Access to this dream depended on someone deciding whether you were worth making famous. It's no secret here's Carrie Fischer at George Lucas's tribute in a joke about something that was all too real, saying “I hope I slept with you to get the job because if not who the hell was that guy.”But the old ways are dying. The new American dream is stranger, more subversive, and depending on your perspective maybe more troubling, than the old one. In some versions it looks like this: a 50 foot woman played by a legitimate celebrity depicting an only fans star while terrorizing an urban area in revealing clothing.I kid you not. This same scene appears in two different hit shows featuring the DIY porn industry.No one exemplifies the new celebrity economy better than Sophie Rain. She grew up on food stamps, joined OnlyFans and made ninety-five million dollars. Not from a long standing career. Not with a record deal or a film franchise. Ninety-five million dollars, from her bedroom, talking directly to the people who believed they could gain a sliver of her personal attention. No power broker decided she was worth taking a risk on. It was just her, and the audience, and a platform that takes twenty cents on the dollar. And, yeah, I know we're talking about pornography here, but we are also talking about fame itself because technological adaptations that happen in that space eventually get adopted everywhere else, too. And something strange is happening on Only Fans.

The Strange Case of Rob, Michele and Nick Reiner Episode 393 – It came as a shock when Rob and Michele Reiner were murdered late last year. Now, their son Nick, accused of the murders, is trying to fund his defense using money in a trust fund provided by his parents. More SML Planning Minute Podcast Episodes Transcript of Podcast Episode 393 Hello, this is Bill Rainaldi, with another edition of Security Mutual's SML Planning Minute. In today's episode: the strange case of Rob, Michele & Nick Reiner. World-famous movie director Rob Reiner and his wife Michele were both stabbed to death in their home in the early hours of December 14, 2025. Their son, Nick, was arrested soon afterward and charged with first-degree murder. No conviction has occurred, and Nick Reiner is entitled to the presumption of innocence while proceedings occur. Nick had gotten into a heated argument with his parents the previous evening, during a party at the home of Conan O’Brien, a well-known television talk show host.[1] Upon his arrest, Nick hired a well-known defense attorney named Alan Jackson, who had previously represented Kevin Spacey and Harvey Weinstein, but Jackson eventually withdrew from the case. Jackson at first refused to specifically state why he withdrew, but it is believed that money was a main issue.[2] Reiner is currently represented by Los Angeles County Public Defender Kimberly Greene, but according to a petition filed on his behalf, Jackson is willing to come back to assist with the case. Reiner would like to rehire Jackson, but he needs to find a way to pay him.[3] Nick apparently has no current source of income, but he does have a trust fund, set up by his parents, which is estimated to be at least $1.5 million. Through his attorney, Nick is petitioning the court for access to the trust fund to help finance his defense.[4] In other words, he would like to use some of the money his parents gave him to help defend himself against the murder charges. The terms of the trust are specific: half of the funds were supposed to be distributed when he reached age 30 in 2023, with the other half to be distributed when he turns 35. The 2023 distribution apparently did not happen.[5] As for the second payment, due in 2028, the outcome is in doubt. If convicted, Nick would likely be prohibited from collecting it due to California's “slayer statute.”[6] Most U.S. states have a slayer statute. This type of law first gained attention in 1989 when the Menendez brothers were accused of killing their parents in Beverly Hills, CA. The brothers were convicted of murder and prohibited from collecting their inheritance from their parents' estate. In California, the statute states that someone who murders someone else cannot inherit assets or gain any financial profit as a result. The burden of proof varies, with some states requiring a criminal conviction to void a disposition, and other states requiring only civil liability.[7] In Nick's case, if the statute is ruled applicable, it would result in Nick being treated as if he had predeceased his parents.[8] A big part of the issue is the unmade trust distribution from 2023, which was scheduled before the crime was committed. The trustee apparently denied the payment due to Nick's history of substance abuse, and his alleged inability to manage the trust assets on his own.[9] [10] For his part, Nick's attorney classifies this as a subjective opinion, which, in his view, is not a valid reason to hold back the money.[11] But things get even more complicated from there. Nick's side has also argued that the assets in question are not assets of his deceased parents' estate, but assets of a trust that had already been funded before the crimes occurred. The argument is that once the assets went into the trust, they were no longer part of Rob and Michele Reiner's estates. [12] Then there's the issue of legal competence. The counterargument offered by Nick's lawyer is that the trustee has the authorization to make payments to a fiduciary, so competency shouldn't be relevant.[13] Reiner asserted in a court filing that his two siblings, Jake and Romy Reiner, had agreed at first to pay legal fees to retain Alan Jackson, but later changed their minds.[14] Their role in any future trial or litigation remains to be seen. Of course, Nick Reiner is presumed innocent until proven guilty. For now, his trust attorneys claim that by blocking access to what they characterize as his own funds, the trustee is effectively punishing him before he is convicted.[15] There’s still a lot to be determined here.

Justin Baldoni hadn't said a public word in almost two years. Then last week he propped up a phone, sat down next to his wife Emily, and posted a video to his own Instagram — no publicist, no People magazine. I told NBC News the most strategic thing about the video is how unstrategic it looked, and in this episode I show you the receipts.I walk through every move the way I teach my own clients: the owned-channel play (stop fighting Meta's algorithm — bring the crisis to your channel), the optics of the couch and the army-green T-shirt, the family deployment (why Emily delivered the hardest lines, and why Blake Lively's version of that move — deploying Taylor Swift — backfired), the one-word message of gratitude, and the timing window that opened the moment the Taylor Swift wedding coverage cooled. Then my partner Muck Rack and I ran the numbers: 623 articles in four days, 60.7% positive sentiment, only 7.2% negative, and a word cloud that finally puts Justin Baldoni's name in the center of the story instead of Blake Lively's.You'll also hear the other side of the NBC 'Heartfelt or Creepy' headline — the crisis consultant (a onetime Harvey Weinstein rep) who called the video creepy and pointless — and why I disagree: Baldoni is in reputation repair, he needs to be hireable again, and in this game you need to have the last word.Chapters:0:00 No publicist, no People magazine — the whole move2:40 Two years of Baldoni v.

More To The Story: Last month, the Supreme Court issued a number of landmark opinions involving transgender rights, campaign finance, executive power, and immigration. Those decisions were issued in the traditional way many of us recognize: pages and pages of arguments and citations, with each justice on the record voting yea or nay. But over the last decade, the court—led by Chief Justice John Roberts—has increasingly relied on a fast-track way of making decisions that was once rarely used. It's known as the shadow docket. Few reporters have done more to shine light on the shadow docket than New York Times investigative journalist Jodi Kantor. Along with her colleague Adam Liptak, Kantor recently published a number of previously undisclosed memos detailing the shadow docket's unprecedented expansion under the Roberts court. On this week's More To The Story, Kantor talks to host Al Letson about what's driving the Roberts court to bypass the traditional ways of issuing decisions and how that's affecting public trust in the court. Plus, Kantor looks back at her Pulitzer Prize–winning reporting on sexual abuse allegations against Harvey Weinstein that helped set off the #metoo movement and argues that obituaries for the movement almost 10 years later are dead wrong.Producer: Josh Sanburn | Editor: Kara McGuirk-Allison | Theme music: Fernando Arruda and Jim Briggs | Copy editor: Nikki Frick | Digital producer: Artis Curiskis | Intern: Joni Binder | Deputy executive producer: Taki Telonidis | Executive producer: Brett Myers | Executive editor: James West | Host: Al LetsonRead: This Is All John Roberts' Fault (Mother Jones)Listen: Why Conservatives Are Trying to Kill the Voting Rights Act (More To The Story)Read: The Inside Story of Five Days That Remade the Supreme Court (The New York Times)Read: She Said: Breaking the Sexual Harassment Story That Helped Ignite a Movement (Penguin Books)Read: How to Start: Discovering Your Life's Work (Little Brown and Company) Donate today at Revealnews.org/more Subscribe to our weekly newsletter at Revealnews.org/weekly Follow us on Instagram and Bluesky Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

Lindsey Fifield handed the New York Times five witnesses, diary entries, screenshots and emails documenting Graham Platner's abuse — and the Times called only the two who knew nothing, then told readers it "could not corroborate" her story. A Times MeToo reporter who helped break Harvey Weinstein went on CNN to insist Platner's accusations weren't "classic MeToo," and columnist Charles Blow defended him with a "two separate rule books" excuse the day the story broke.

Thursday, July 2nd, 2026 - McConnell's Secret Heart Attack, DSA Beats Dems in CO, Trump's Qatari Plane Takes Flight

Today's Headlines: Mitch McConnell has apparently been on death's door for three weeks and nobody thought to mention it — Punchbowl News reported yesterday that he was found unconscious after likely suffering a heart attack, with EMS dispatch audio referencing CPR in progress for a cardiac arrest, while his office has been telling us he's "working closely with staff," which is one way to describe being in a hospital after cardiac arrest. Harvey Weinstein is also in Bellevue Hospital with heart failure as a complication of pneumonia after being rushed from Rikers, awaiting his September sentencing for sexual assault. America's 250th birthday celebration is upon us, with Trump promising the world's longest fireworks show starting at 10:30pm, plus a speech he's calling a rally that he promised to deliver even if it's 107 degrees, so happy birthday to us. Trump also took his Qatari hand-me-down plane on its inaugural flight to North Dakota for the Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library opening, where he compared himself to Teddy Roosevelt without quoting him once, interacted with an AI version of Roosevelt, floated giving himself the Medal of Honor for "taking on Russia Russia Russia," and bragged about winning the Iran war. Meanwhile, Former CIA Director John Brennan is suing the DOJ to prevent them from destroying evidence related to Trump's revenge investigations into him, which is the correct move and the only language Trump can read. Democratic panic is setting in after DSA candidate Melat Kiros, 29, beat 29-year incumbent Diana DeGette in Colorado's congressional primary — with Colorado's attorney general Phil Weiser also beating establishment favorite Michael Bennet in the governor's primary. And the Trump administration lifted its restrictions on Claude Fable 5 and Mythos, which it banned weeks ago for cybersecurity concerns, while simultaneously asking OpenAI to restrict its new GPT-5.6 Sol model for national security vetting, because the administration's relationship with AI safety is whatever is most convenient at any given moment.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to have back on the show once again: Satanic ritual abuse, sex trafficking, and Harvey Weinstein survivor and whistleblower, acclaimed actress, model, artist and painter, and a brilliant woman who has risked her life to shine a light on the darkness of her life and the lives of other victims and survivors: Paz de la Huerta Here's a little bit about Paz if you are new here, missed her first 2 episodes or need a little recap on her testimony: From the tender age of five, the little girl who adored fairy tales and painted dollhouses as imagined safe havens was plunged into a nightmare of incest, control, jealousy, and betrayal. Her father's abuse began early, fueled by alcohol and twisted into something grotesque and ritualistic. Her mother's envy festered into trafficking, spying through connected apartments rented to Miramax, and the systematic theft of Paz's earnings. A jealous sister, a complicit godmother, and a web of handlers turned every potential refuge into a trap. Yet even then, Paz's spirit refused to be extinguished. She painted interiors and safe spaces as a child, her art becoming the first language of her soul. She danced. She sang. She dreamed of freedom.That same fierce light propelled her onto the screen. At just 14, Paz launched a career that would captivate audiences worldwide. Her performances blended classic Hollywood siren allure with profound depth - beauty and talent weaponized against her by those who saw only dollar signs.But behind the spotlight lay horrors that would break most souls. In 2010, at a Golden Globes afterparty for Blue Valentine, Harvey Weinstein—the very producer connected to her early world—forced his way into her Greenwich Street apartment and raped her, repeating the violent assault weeks later. Her own mother trafficked her to Weinstein, spied on her, and stole millions while living lavishly. Her family paid off lawyers, doctors, and studios to silence her. They wanted her dead, institutionalized, or erased.In 2017, as the #MeToo movement ignited, Paz bravely spoke to The New York Times and Vanity Fair, exposing Weinstein's assaults. Though her case was not part of his conviction, her testimony fueled the global reckoning. They gaslit her in the media for years. But Paz remembered everything.Five years ago, after her father's final brutal rapes in a cheap Madrid hotel, Paz escaped. With the help of the powerful plant medicine iboga, she pieced together her shattered memories and reclaimed her mind. Her art became her salvation and her voice. Her work is not mere expression; it is testimony, rebirth, and prophecy. She continues acting, modeling, and directing, pouring her truth into every frame and canvas.Today, Paz is a walking miracle, a renaissance woman, and a courageous survivor advocate. She dreams of building orphanages, protecting vulnerable children and animals, and helping fellow survivors reclaim their power through art, animals, and truth.Paz has declared: “I've been through hell, but I've remembered everything. We are all angels. These exploiters are Satanists, and I deserve justice.”She is no perpetual victim. She is the siren who survived the storm. The angel who refused to fall. The light that no amount of darkness could extinguish. From the shattered streets of her childhood to the heights of Hollywood and back through the valley of death, Paz has forged unbreakable wings from truth, art, and unyielding courage.Her voice echoes eternally—not in bitterness, but in righteous fire. She calls every survivor to speak, every witness to stand, every soul to remember that even the most broken spirit can rise, reclaim its power, and inspire millions.Paz is living proof that hell cannot claim the pure of heart. Because when one angel rises, the whole world remembers how to fight for the light.DONATE TO PAZ'S GOFUNDME: https://www.gofundme.com/f/justice-for-paz-fundraiser-for-spanish-criminal-lawyers-andPAZ'S ART: -Interview Magazine Feature: www.https://interviewmagazine.com/art/how-paz-de-la-huerta-found-peace-in-her-surrealists-paintingsCONNECT WITH PAZ:TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@paz.de.la.huertaIG: https://www.instagram.com/thefugitive1984/CONNECT W/ EMMA:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@imaginationpodcastofficialEMAIL: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comSubstack: https://emmakatherine.substack.com/BUY ME A COFFEE: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/theimaginationVENMO: @emmapreneurCASHAPP: $EmmaKatherine1204All links: https://direct.me/theimaginationpodcastSupport the show

The Author Events Series presents Jodi Kantor | How to Start Join Jodi Kantor and Michael Solomonov for a discussion of the question: how, in these challenging times, can anyone discover and begin their life's work? Jodi Kantor's groundbreaking reporting has toppled media magnates, sparked reform worldwide, and foretold many of the unsettling changes we see in the workplace today. But before all of this, Kantor was kicked off her college newspaper. Society expects perfection, but Kantor knows those first professional steps are often rocky. She also knows that young people are facing new and frightening terrain, with political upheaval, skyrocketing costs of living, and the unknowns of AI. Kantor casts aside platitudes and false hope to offer tangible help. Work is how we spend much of our time. It's our engine of progress: how cancer therapies are invented, political campaigns won, thrilling art created and matched with an audience. Instead of letting cynicism take over, Kantor identifies two principles to help young people discover their life's work: craft and need. By pairing the two, they can navigate tough, sensitive choices: how to think about money. How much risk to take on. When to buck what others are saying. Powerful and provocative, How to Start is a statement of faith for young people as they make their way through uncertain times, offering wisdom, strategy, and a set of aspirations to launch their careers and last their whole lives. Jodi Kantor is a New York Times investigative reporter who has revealed hidden truths about power, technology, gender, law, and employment. In 2017, she and Megan Twohey exposed Harvey Weinstein's treatment of women, setting off the worldwide #Metoo reckoning. They were awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Public Service and co-authored She Said, a book taking readers inside their investigation, also made into a film. Recently, she has been working to illuminate one of our most secretive and critical institutions, the Supreme Court. Kantor lives in Brooklyn, NY, with her husband Ron Lieber and their two children. She began her journalism career by dropping out of law school, and she speaks at campuses across the country about finding work of meaning. As chef of the trailblazing restaurant Zahav, and co-owner of CookNSolo Restaurants with his twenty-year business partner Steve Cook, Michael Solomonov has redefined Israeli cuisine in the U.S. and beyond. With five James Beard Awards, including Zahav's ''Outstanding Restaurant'' accolade in 2019, he is celebrated for honoring Israel's diverse culinary traditions through innovative flavors and vibrant settings. Solomonov's Philadelphia-based group includes beloved concepts like Dizengoff, Goldie, K'Far and Laser Wolf, with recent expansions in New York and Miami's 1 Hotel South Beach. Through his acclaimed cookbooks and the launch of Zahav Restaurant Recipe Hummus at Whole Foods, he continue to share his signature approach to Israeli flavors with a nationwide audience. Outside of the restaurants, you can often find Michael with Steve at Pho 75 in South Philly, working out the kinks in their Israeli village.  Because you love Author Events, please make a donation when you register for this event to ensure that this series continues to inspire Philadelphians. Books will be available for purchase at the library on event night! All tickets are non-refundable. (recorded 5/19/2026)

Greg Kelly Reports | June 16, 2026 - The episode opens with sharp criticism of progressive cultural politics, arguing that Democratic opposition to Trump is tied to a broader defense of radical gender ideology, the sexualization of children, and values the show presents as fundamentally anti-American. - A major focus is the pending Iran memorandum of understanding, with the show defending a short, simple deal structure that centers on removing enriched uranium, blocking nuclear weapons, ending terror funding, reopening the Strait of Hormuz, and allowing Iran back into the global economy under inspection. - Gavin Newsom is portrayed as politically desperate, using public complaints about federal scrutiny to cast himself as a victim while the episode raises new questions about his wife's nonprofit finances, her past Harvey Weinstein claims, and the couple's broader credibility. - The show highlights J.D.

Starting is hard when it requires taking a step into a future that's so unpredictable. For young people entering the workforce today, that challenge is even greater. First the pandemic disrupted their education and early careers, and now artificial intelligence is reshaping industries almost as fast as they can enter them. When Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times journalist Jodi Kantor was invited to deliver a commencement speech at her alma mater, Columbia University, she knew graduates weren't looking for easy answers or inspirational clichés. Best known for breaking the Harvey Weinstein story, Kantor has spent years reporting on power, work, technology and social change. That speech became a book about finding meaningful work and building a life shaped by your own choices and ambitions. It's called How to Start: Discovering Your Life's Work.

What happens when a lifelong atheist starts investigating the possibility of an afterlife?After losing her father in 2015, Liz Entin began searching for evidence—not faith, not religion, but evidence—that consciousness might survive death. What started as a skeptical inquiry led her down a path that challenged many of her assumptions about reality, consciousness, and what happens when we die.In this episode, Daniel and Liz explore the nature of consciousness, near-death experiences, the relationship between science and spirituality, whether the brain creates consciousness or receives it, and the possibility that our individual lives are connected to something much larger than we can currently understand.They also tackle questions surrounding God, religion, evidence, faith, the limits of human understanding, and why two people can sometimes be describing the same mystery while using completely different language.Liz's bio:Liz began examining if there was evidence of an afterlife and anything paranormal in 2015 following the passing of her father. While she still considers herself skeptical and an atheist, (although she's a cultural Jew), the evidence really blew her away. She is the author of two books in the WTF Just Happened? series: Book One - WTF Just Happened?!: A sciencey-skeptic explores grief, healing, and evidence of an afterlife and Book Two WTF Just Happened?!: A sciencey skeptic investigates even more evidence of an afterlife and fights for justice with her dead dog. She is host of a podcast, WTF Just Happened?!: All about the afterlife. No woo. She also runs “Science and Spirituality” private events, where an intimate group of you and your friends can learn more about the science behind an afterlife and get readings from highly evidential mediums who have been tested by scientists. Fun fact that has nothing to do with the afterlife - she has a chihuahua Peanut who is famous for chasing and scaring Harvey Weinstein. She splits her time between New York and LA.

A Manhattan jury split nine-to-three in favor of acquittal, yet Harvey Weinstein still walked out of court without a verdict. In this episode of The Valley Current®, Jack Russo breaks down the 2026 Weinstein mistrial and the legal architecture that allowed one fractured jury room to halt one of the most watched prosecutions in America. Why does a single juror hold the power to stop the state? Why do "middle evidence" cases so often unravel, even under intense public pressure? And how have Supreme Court rulings, media saturation, and the modern CSI effect fundamentally changed what juries now demand before convicting someone? From celebrity criminal trials to Silicon Valley trade secret wars, this episode explores how reasonable doubt, unanimity, and evidentiary rules can quietly decide billion-dollar and life-altering cases long before a verdict is ever reached.

There are currently just under a million young people in this age range dubbed NEETs because they are not in education, employment or training. Anita Rani speaks to former Labour Home Secretary Baroness Smith, now Minister for Skills, as well as Minister for Women and Equalities. A BBC investigation looks at on the global expansion of the manosphere and the social media algorithms which are driving young men towards increasingly extreme views on gender, relationships and masculinity. BBC Global Disinformation reporter Jacqui Wakefield examines the rise of two of the most influential manosphere figures in Latin American and Africa – El Temach in Mexico and, Andrew Kibe in Kenya. She joins Anita to tell her what it was like spending time with these influencers and about the women living with the real-life consequences of their influence.

Hope you're having a great week — or at least a better week than certain senators and congressmen who thought it would be okay to run against Trump and smear his supporters.Did you see Thomas Massie — the Kentucky congressman who lost his primary after slamming Trump? In his concession speech he said he was unable to reach his opponent because he “was in Tel Aviv.” Running against Trump is part of the democratic process and should be welcomed — using slurs against your opponent is not. The world is turning very dark, very antisemitic. We are here to expose and explain it all.On this week's podcast we bring you the latest about these and other issues — including what they're NOT telling you about the ABORTION PILL.Did you know the FDA is still withholding 125,000 pages of documents about the safety of the pill that is the most common method of abortion in the US? In the podcast we lay out exactly what's being hidden and why it matters.And it's official — girls aren't safe in Australia anymore.An Australian man, pretending to be a woman, has now sued a girls-only app which excluded him, and won in court after court, and been given full access. The courts ruled he can invade female spaces and they're fining anyone who tries to stop him. We break down the full ruling and what it means for women's spaces everywhere.We're joined by the brilliant broadcaster and journalist Mollie Hemingway, who reveals why she thinks Samuel Alito is the most underrated Supreme Court Justice in America. And you will not believe the dangerous behavior of the liberal justices on the court who seemed to do all they could to bring harm to their colleagues in the run-up to the historic Dobbs case that overturned Roe v. Wade. You can buy her book at the link below.And we may hate Harvey Weinstein's politics, but we hate mob justice even more. After his latest trial in New York, it's time to say: free Harvey Weinstein and end the “Believe All Women” madness. We give you the full story of his case and the disturbing details the public hasn't heard. It really is an untold story. When Harvey Weinstein was first on trial we were at the courthouse every day and produced our verbatim podcast series, The Harvey Weinstein Trial: Unfiltered. Please check it out at the link below.And in our “Crazy Headline of the Week” series there's a hot new “intellectual” take on the Frankenstein story — and according to the smart set, the monster isn't who you think it is. He is actually transgender!There really is nobody who can be as stupid as a smart liberal.We were honored to be invited by the Israeli Embassy to their Independence Day celebrations in D.C.

Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey are the New York Times reporters who broke the Harvey Weinstein story. For five months -- perpetually in danger of losing the scoop -- they cultivated and cajoled sources ranging from the Weinsteins’ accountant to Ashley Judd. The article that emerged on October 5th, 2017, was a level-headed and impeccably sourced exposé, whose effects continue to be felt around the world. Their conversation with Alec covers their reporting process, and moves on to a joint wrestling with Alec’s own early knowledge of one of the Weinstein allegations, and his ongoing friendship with accused harasser James Toback. The guests ask Alec questions about the movie industry’s ethics about sex and “the casting couch.” Over a respectful and surprising half-hour, host and guests together talk through the many dilemmas posed by the #MeToo movement that Kantor and Twohey did so much to unleash.

A curious new report about "drones" could be the pretext to U.S. military action against Cuba. Senator Bill Cassidy loses his Louisiana primary after years of fallout from his vote to convict President Trump and his opposition to the MAHA movement, handing the president another revenge win. U.S. Congressman Thomas Kean Jr. of New Jersey has missed months of votes and vanished from public view while his staff, family, and House GOP leaders insist he is recovering from a temporary illness, despite offering few details. Harvey Weinstein's latest New York rape trial ends in another mistrial after jurors deadlock on Jessica Mann's allegation, leaving prosecutors to decide whether to pursue the charge for a fourth time.     ARMRA: go to https://tryarmra.com/MEGYNto get 30% off your first subscription order   SelectQuote: Compare top‑rated life insurance options.

Today's Headlines: Trump is reportedly willing to drop his $10 billion IRS lawsuit in exchange for a $1.7 billion government slush fund to pay out political allies — including $230 million for himself, a waiver on all family tax audits, and a public IRS apology — totally extortion. Meanwhile, Louisiana Senator Bill Cassidy, one of the only Republicans who voted to convict Trump after January 6th, lost his primary and became the first senator in 12 years to lose one, because minimal backbone has a price in today's GOP. Because hantavirus clearly wasn't enough to worry about, the WHO declared Ebola a global health emergency after outbreaks in Uganda and the DRC with 246 suspected cases, no available vaccine, and no functioning USAID to help — and the person Trump put in charge of the hantavirus response is a urologist who specializes in penile implants and has promoted pandemic conspiracy theories, so we're in great hands. In other news, Trump's new counterterrorism strategy ranks drug cartels above Islamist militants, considers leftists on par with al-Qaeda, and doesn't mention far-right extremism at all, though Sebastian Gorka did find time to call out Tucker Carlson specifically. In global matters, a commander of Iranian-backed militia Kataib Hezbollah was charged with plotting attacks on 20 Jewish sites across the US, Europe, and Canada, a drone struck a UAE nuclear power plant with no injuries, and Trump told Axios Iran will get "hit much harder" despite having no leverage — while US officials now believe China will invade Taiwan within four years, Cuba has acquired 300 military drones from Russia and Iran and is reportedly eyeing Guantanamo Bay or Key West, and Ukraine launched its largest drone attack of the entire war — 600 drones across 14 Russian regions — in retaliation for Russia's assault last week. Finally, Harvey Weinstein's third trial ended in a mistrial after nine of twelve mostly-male jurors wanted to acquit him, a French judge opened an inquiry into MBS's role in Khashoggi's murder, and Everlane is being acquired by Shein for $100 million.
