1. Historic Peace Agreement Israel and Hamas ending a war that began in October 2023. We celebrate Trump’s role in brokering the deal, presenting it as a moment of global significance—“the end of the age of terror and death” and “a new dawn for the Middle East.” 2. Key Events Described Hostage exchange: Hamas releases the final 20 living Israeli hostages; Israel releases 1,900 Palestinian prisoners. Return of remains: The bodies of several deceased hostages are repatriated. Ceasefire and framework: The plan involves partial Israeli troop withdrawal, establishment of a technocratic Gaza administration (not Hamas-controlled), and disarmament conditions. Humanitarian aid: Large-scale relief efforts in Gaza are emphasized. International involvement: Egypt, Qatar, Turkey, and others serve as guarantors; a reconstruction and aid summit is held in Egypt. 3. Trump’s Role and Statements Trump was the chief architect and hero of the peace accord. He calls it “the greatest assemblage of countries in terms of wealth and power.” He refers to it as the “granddaddy of them all” among peace efforts. The text includes his speech excerpts on Air Force One and before the Israeli parliament (Knesset). 4. Reactions and Praise The piece highlights unusually bipartisan and international praise: Hillary Clinton commends Trump’s efforts, calling the deal “a really significant first step.” Major news outlets—CBS and NBC—report on it with positive framing, using phrases like “historic peace deal” and “landmark diplomatic success.” Netanyahu is quoted calling Trump “the greatest friend the State of Israel has ever had.” Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Rachel Maddow points out the exceptional and unusually effusive praise and thanks that Donald Trump heaped on Abdel Fattah el-Sisi, the president of Egypt, at an event tied to the Israel-Gaza ceasefire, in which Trump bizarrely mentioned his race against Hillary Clinton. The episode calls to mind a mysterious $10 million and a related investigation's questions left open-ended after Trump was inaugurated the first time.Rachel Maddow looks at recent examples of Donald Trump using the power of American taxpayers to cut deals for himself and his friends and family, and focuses on the especially galling case of Trump and his Treasury secretary, Scott Bessent, sending an extraordinary $20 billion to bail out Argentina at a time when the U.S. government is closed for lack of funding.Rachel Maddow reports that the number of events planned for the "No Kings" day of protest on Saturday, October 18 already exceeds the previous "No Kings" protests that drew millions of Americans to voice their opposition to Donald Trump's overreach and attacks on democracy in the United States. Ezra Levin, co-founder and co-executive director of Indivisible, joins to discuss the planning and organizing taking place. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Olivia Plath joins to talk about leaving Welcome to Plathville and leaving behind the fundamentalist Christian community in which she was raised. She shares what it's like to leave a marriage that began on television when she was very young, why as a teen she felt she needed a gun to protect against a Hillary Clinton victory, and why she decided to talk more about the anger and abusive aspects of her relationship that did not end up on TLC. Olivia has been on a journey, much of it for the world to see, and it's given her a fascinating perspective on reality TV, on what happens to kids when their parents seek fame, and what it's been like to grow up in one world and then choose to live in another.In this special limited series, Lovett sits down with reality icons who helped lead a hostile takeover not just of television, but of our culture. In intimate and revealing conversations, Lovett and his guests explore the ways these shows blur the line between authenticity and performance, the compromises of putting your life on television, the reality-TV-ification of our politics, and the secrets that don't make it on screen. What have reality stars learned about themselves, about television, and about America? And what happens to a society when the only thing worse than being hated is being boring? These are the questions we are trying to answer - either here, or at the reunion.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

In this episode, Bill speaks with congressional scholar Norm Ornstein about the deteriorating state of the United States Congress. They discuss the book Ornstein co-authored 13 years ago, 'It's Even Worse Than It Looks,' focusing on how the Republican party has evolved into an 'insurgent outlier.' Ornstein shares his personal history working in the Senate since 1970, citing a loss of 'institutional patriotism' among Republicans and their complete subordination to Donald Trump. He criticizes current congressional leadership, particularly Mike Johnson, and highlights issues like the Senate's blind approval of Trump nominees and the failure of effective oversight. Ornstein also addresses the implications of a government shutdown, the misuse of the Justice Department for political retribution, and the need for an effective Democratic response. He ends on a somber note, comparing current political dynamics to the erosion of democratic norms seen in history, suggesting that the road to recovery is uncertain and fraught with challenges. (No kidding.)Norman Ornstein is a political scientist, co-host of the podcast “Words Matter,” and author of books, including “It's Even Worse Than It Looks: How the American Constitutional System Collided with the New Politics of Extremism.” Today Bill highlights the work of one of his favorite morning reads, The Bulwark. A great website and media company founded by Never-Trump Republicans which is at the forefront of The Resistance.

David Waldman is back and flying solo again! He's the Charles Lindbergh of podcasters, but without the antisemitism! Remember when Joe Biden brokered peace and secured the release of hostages in Gaza? Well, Donald K. Trump just did some too. Only, Trump got the last of the hostages, which, like the last piece of cake, is always the most important part. Now what? Who knows? What's in it for Trump? At the Gaza summit, Trump, always the dealmaker, remembered to “ABC”: Always Be Covetous”, Always Be Corrupting”, Always Be Coercive”, “Always Be Crass”, and “Always Be Cruising.” Trump made certain to complement Egypt, not just because he admires their lack of human rights, but because he owes them for helping take care of Hillary Clinton. Oh, yeah, also that $10 million in American $100 bills. Did Donald commit a crime or two? Like they say, “follow the money”. Two halves of Trump's halfwit battle it out over China, and the only ones who have a clue probably have Trump or Kushner as their last names. Meanwhile, while everybody else goes low, Barack Obama goes high.

The decision to delay Bill and Hillary Clinton's depositions in the congressional probe into Jeffrey Epstein has reignited public skepticism over whether powerful political figures will ever face genuine accountability. Bill Clinton's long-documented ties to Epstein — including flights on the financier's private jet and appearances in visitor logs — have made him a central figure of interest in the investigation. Yet, despite repeated assurances of transparency, the Clintons remain insulated behind legal maneuvering and procedural delays. Critics argue that such postponements underscore how the justice system bends for the well-connected, turning what should be a fact-finding process into a slow-motion exercise in political optics.The congressional inquiry, billed as a serious attempt to unravel Epstein's political network, is increasingly viewed as a performance rather than a pursuit of truth. While survivors and the public wait for substantive action, the Clintons' ability to delay testimony reinforces a familiar pattern — one where power shields itself from consequence. Observers say that unless Congress moves past symbolic gestures and compels full cooperation from all involved, the Epstein probe risks joining a long list of high-profile investigations that end not in justice, but in frustration and doubt.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bill and Hillary Clinton delay depositions in House Oversight panel's Jeffrey Epstein probe
BREAKING NEWS: 7 of the 20 October 7 hostages RELEASED! Ted Cruz and Ben Ferguson praise Trump’s leadership, portraying him as uniquely capable of achieving peace through strength. They contrast this with Biden’s and Obama’s foreign policy, which they characterize as weak and enabling of terrorism. The Red Cross is facilitating the transfer of hostages held underground in Gaza for over two years. The first seven hostages have been handed over, with the full release expected by noon (Israel time). In exchange, Israel is releasing about 2,000 Palestinian prisoners, including: 250 serving long sentences, 1,700 detained during the conflict, and The remains of 28 deceased hostages. Endorsements & Reactions – The podcast includes audio clips & quotes from Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Benjamin Netanyahu, Jared Kushner, and Steve Witkoff. Clinton is depicted as praising Trump’s deal (a rare bipartisan gesture), while Obama’s response is described as “classless” for not naming Trump. Foreign Policy Narrative – Trump’s bombing of Iranian nuclear facilities and his “peace through strength” doctrine are credited for pressuring Hamas into negotiations. The Biden administration is blamed for previous instability, alleged funding to Iran, and a weak stance toward Israel. Government Shutdown Continues: U.S. government shutdown goes on, the “Schumer shutdown”, as Democrats keep prolonging it. When will it end? We discuss it. Closing Remarks – The episode ends with Cruz offering religious gratitude (“Praise God”) and both hosts congratulating Trump, Netanyahu, and Israel. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

For the first time in generations, guns have been laid down and sirens are silent as Israel and Hamas have signed a potentially miraculous ceasefire and peace agreement. Glenn lays out the history of the conflict in the Middle East, showing how important this U.S.-brokered ceasefire truly is. Glenn and Stu discuss President Trump's leadership as he led the effort for this miraculous peace deal. When was the last time America had a president who ended conflict, rather than starting it? Texas Governor Greg Abbott (R) joins Glenn to discuss a judge blocking the Texas National Guard from being activated in Illinois after being sent to "safeguard" ICE officers. It took President Trump nine months to do what past leaders couldn't do in years. Glenn shares that the FBI visited his home to request the research that was featured in his special exposing Antifa. "On Balance" host Leland Vittert joins to discuss the concerning rise of anti-Semitism within the Republican Party. Leland also shares his life story, which is outlined in his book, "Born Lucky: A Dedicated Father, a Grateful Son, and My Journey with Autism."

I've been hated by the Party of Hate for five years and counting, maybe longer. For a while, I tricked myself into thinking it was people who didn't really know me. They judged me on my tweets or my opinions. But then, after I came out as a Trump voter, I felt hate even from the people who did know me.I've seen sons disown their mothers, wives disown their husbands. I've felt the hatred from the people in my town who put up alienating lawn signs that seem to come from a good place until you think about what they're really saying: agree with us, or we will hate you. When I was a kid, my stepdad forbade us from using the word “hate.” We were not allowed to say it for any reason, not “I hate brusselsprouts,” “I hate doing the dishes,” or most especially, “I hate you.”I felt it bubbling up so many times - what is a better word, I would wonder. There is no better word, I would conclude. Hate is the word we use to describe that all-consuming heat that bubbles up inside us that we can't control. There are perfect words for things, or as Anton Chigurh said in No Country for Old Men, “you pick the one right tool.”What is love? I knew what that was the first time I saw my baby's face. What is hate? What all of us felt in November of 2016 when Donald Trump won the election. From that day forward, for the next ten years, we would be defined by and consumed by hate.The hate wrapped itself around us. It comforted us. It made us feel morally superior and less alone in our misery and less helpless in our actions. It justified everything we did, whether it was protesting Trump's inauguration or forming the #Resistance. It justified even worse, beating up, spitting on, and knocking the red hats off of Trump supporters. The rulers of the Left's aristocracy, the empire that is now in tatters, said nothing. They seemed to delight in watching all of us good soldiers protest, even smash windows and burn buildings to show how angry we were, because that made them feel less like the failures they are. Blame Trump, blame the voters for the crime of voting them out. Blame anyone but themselves.All of culture was now consumed by the hatred that blotted out the sun and kept us trapped in a long, dark winter of misery and rage. It was our obligation as citizens of utopia to take a side against the half of America that had betrayed Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. Hollywood, universities, corporations, institutions, book publishing, libraries, and restaurants all sent the same message to the Red Hats: you are not welcome here.The directive from on high was not to “normalize” what was not “normal.” The people didn't just vote in Trump to represent them — that would be democracy. This was something else. This was an affront to all the better people —the ones with all the power. Those who called themselves the good side, the moral side, the side written by Aaron Sorkin and directed by Steven Spielberg, the lawn sign people who say JUST BE KIND, were in the grips of an emotion they could not name, let alone control.You do not speak like we do. You do not believe what we believe. You do not accept our version of reality. We don't want you here. We hate you. Hate was what we were feeling, and yet hate was a word we'd given away. It didn't mean this overwhelming sensation that made us use our social media to demonize and dehumanize the working class. It meant people who did not go along with our progressive ideology. It started back in the 1990s with the fight for gay marriage. “Love is love” meant you're with us. “Hate” meant you were against us. Hate was what all of those bad people over there were, the God people, the Conservatives, that's what defined them, not us.Without the right words to describe what we were feeling, we had to find other words. Nazi, fascist, dictator, bigot, homophobe, racist, rapist, xenophobe, transphobe. And when that wasn't enough, we had to go after how he looked, his weight, his hair, his hands, his skin, his relationship with his family, the cars he drove, the food he ate.Trump was the only thing we could see because hate was the only thing we could feel. Like this woman on TikTok who embodies so much of what defines the Left today.It wasn't that Trump didn't troll or provoke us or give as good as he got. He did. Every one of his tweets drove us deeper into our hatred. How could he say that? That's not funny. That's not a joke. That's offensive. Presidents don't talk that way. Who would dare talk that way? Don't laugh. Take it seriously. Don't normalize him. Maybe for a while, the hatred was an understandable response to someone who offended everything we stood for. But after years of it, even I couldn't take it anymore. It wasn't just poison I could feel — a poison that began to make me sick — it was poison in our culture. It touched everything, ruined everything, destroyed a once-mighty movement, and collapsed an empire. That hate we felt, that united us, meant everything had to be sucked into it, like a black hole. Jokes weren't funny. Movies were dystopian and apocalyptic, and still are. Keep the people afraid. We are oppressed, said the wealthy ruling class. Hate became a useful weapon for the empire. They could police thought and speech to aim their weapon at anyone who disagreed with them, defied their rules, and thought for themselves. Two Minutes of Hate Although they will deny it and wish for it not to be true, what we all built back when Obama won was like 1984. We built an “inside” that kept everyone else on the “outside.” If you wanted to be on the “inside,” you had to follow our strict rules; otherwise, you were out.In 1984, Big Brother uses Two Minutes of Hate to keep the people consumed by an emotion that prevents them from ever thinking for themselves. Who would want to be hated like that?And yet, that described exactly what it was like to watch everyone I knew every single day on social media. It spilled over into real life because the media drove it — from morning news on NPR and the networks, through the day with social media feedback loops, to cable news, and late-night comedy. It was Two Minutes of Hate all day, every day.I didn't want to be part of it, and I had to know what was true and what wasn't. In 1984, we know Big Brother is lying about Goldstein, if Goldstein even existed. The version of Trump we thought existed was the same kind of useful illusion. What was the way out of this, I wondered. I'd already felt the wrath of my friends online for asking questions or breaking our strict code of thought and speech. They hated me, too. So I decided to try to reprogram my brain by cutting off all information coming from the media and social media.It wasn't easy. I filled up my head with only news from the Right. I wanted to know who they really were. I had to know if any of it was true. What I eventually found out was that no, it wasn't true. Every screeching accusation is a choice to condemn someone on flimsy evidence without giving them the benefit of the doubt. How can we live like this, I thought. We must be able to tolerate one another. But how? The first thing I needed to do was remember what words really meant. NewspeakNewspeak is necessary in 1984 for the same reason it's necessary on the Left. Like masks, it identifies who is who in a civilization migrating online, where words are sometimes all we have to decide who is who.Our manipulation of words like 'love' and 'hate' meant that they became elastic over time. We used them for our own purposes to drive our agenda. Break the rules of language, no matter how crazy and ridiculous they become, and you are HATE. The worst offender of Newspeak is undoubtedly “Gender Affirming Care.” It's a word game for them. You can't oppose it without opposing the “affirmation” of their gender. It is demanded and mandated. Which is how we get videos like this.Children are conditioned to obey these strict rules because waiting on the other side for them is Two Minutes of Hate, or a lifetime of it.Obey our rules, or else it's all done with rainbows and unicorns and a smile. Now look at how Charlie Kirk approached this difficult subject, with compassion and grace, but also by edging ever so closely to the truth. Is it any wonder they had to silence him by any means necessary? Child-like words are given for extreme procedures that they are in no way ready for. Top surgery is, in reality, a double mastectomy on a pre-teen or teenage girl who can't consent. Bottom surgery is either chemical or surgical castration, or mutilating your otherwise healthy organs to fake male body parts. The words became ways to define this bizarre new fundamentalism that has overtaken so many young people, and why so many of them are fleeing for freer, saner pastures. Did you know there was a word called Adultism? It means, “behaviors and attitudes based on the assumption that adults are better than young people, and entitled to act upon young people without their agreement. This mistreatment is reinforced by social institutions, laws, customs, and attitudes.” Heterosexism, cisgender — so many words. All it means is that you cannot question any of it and must follow these words to decide the meaning of things, rather than what you know in your mind and heart to be true; it's 2+5=5.Trump's biggest crime was that he stripped away gentle language and spoke the plain truth. None of their weapons of war — the Two Minutes of Hate — worked on him. We forgot the lesson from our childhood about the power of words. They are just words. They are not bullets whizzing through the air from rooftops. They are not shooting a CEO on the streets of New York. They are not setting fire to Teslas.I don't have to look far to see what the Left has become. I only have to scroll social media, and the algorithm gives me what is most popular. Yes, these are just words, but more and more lately, violence is echoing them. And on TikTok:Sticks and StonesCharlie Kirk was silenced because the shooter said he “spread too much hate” and it could “not be negotiated down.” An assassin did the dirty work. The end result was the same. That he wasn't immediately silenced, that his voice got louder as people mourned him and defended him, brought the hate back with a white hot fury. I've been waiting for five years for those I know on the Left to snap out of it, to thaw out, to find their humanity and their tolerance. Yet every day, it just seems to get worse. Because to them, they are becoming hate while combating what they have defined as hate. That's not everyone on the Left. I know some brave people who still treat me with kindness and decency. Those who lead their party, however, including their influencers, journalists, celebrities, and comedians, are the ones defined by hate that leave no room for any middle ground.Here is Jesse Kelly:Those who aren't consumed by hate are too afraid to stand up to the party. They can't even stand up against text messages that fantasize about violence and death against Republicans. Here is Abigail Spanburger in a debate with Winsome Earle-Sears, refusing to back off her support of Jay C. Jones:But I know that violence on the Left in the era of Trump is not new. The issue dates back to 2015 and has been reported on by Tucker Carlson and Liz Wheeler, tracing its origins to Trump's first term.But the Left controls the media narrative, and even if that's changing, it isn't changing fast enough. There aren't enough Democrats willing to stand up against any of it. Here is Pam Bondi and Benny Johnson on the arrest of a man who threatened Johnson's life:When I found my way into Trump world, I found exactly the opposite of what I expected: hate. I found tolerance. I found decency. I found kindness. I found love. It was unusual to find people who were not eternally miserable, bearing the weight of the world on their shoulders, like most progressives. Many of them are not driven by politics but rather by a higher power, and that is what prevents them from becoming a people and a movement defined by hate. There is also a lightness in escaping totalitarian oppression that polices every word that comes out of your mouth. It feels good to speak the truth, and it feels good to feel free. The death of Charlie Kirk has shaken moderate Democrats out of their hate stupor because of how so many on the Left reacted to his death.The Democrats didn't used to be the party of hate. But powerful people don't like having things taken away from them. In their fury and fanaticism, almost nothing of what they built, supposedly on inclusion and tolerance, remains. All that's left is the thing they can't name, the thing they can't extinguish: that all-consuming hate. I don't know how we end this madness. I don't have any hope that the Democrats will emerge from it any time soon. I guess that means we must move on without them to shape an America that, at the very least, understands the meaning of fundamental words like love and hate. // This is a public episode.

This week's Parsing Immigration Policy podcast examines the Trump administration's initiative to temporarily detail military lawyers -- Judge Advocates General (JAGs) -- to serve as temporary immigration judges, with the first group beginning training this week.Host Mark Krikorian, executive director of the Center for Immigration Studies, is joined by Andrew Arthur, the Center's fellow in law and policy and a former immigration judge, to discuss the legal, practical, and political implications of the move.Key points include:The U.S. immigration court system currently has about 650 permanent judges; the addition of 100 JAGs as temporary judges could significantly expand capacity, with the administration aiming to add hundreds more.The Department of Justice has had mechanisms since 2014 to appoint temporary immigration judges.Most JAGs lack immigration law experience, but Arthur notes that immigration courts often focus on determinations of removability and eligibility for relief -- areas where experienced litigators can adapt quickly.New judges receive a week of formal training and two weeks of supervised hearings, similar to what Arthur himself received.The episode also addresses the multiple due process safeguards, the backlog impact, and whether the move raises concerns under the Posse Comitatus Act.In his closing commentary, Krikorian discusses the government shutdown and the debate over healthcare for illegal immigrants, referencing a recent CIS blog post by Jason Richwine, “Of Course Illegal Immigrants Access Public Health Benefits”. He notes that the budget dispute is real but distracts from a broader truth: Illegal immigrants access public health programs through multiple channels, benefits that will continue regardless of how the shutdown is resolved.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestAndrew Arthur is a Fellow in Law and Policy at the Center for Immigration Studies.RelatedPentagon to Send 600 Lawyers to Serve as Temporary Immigration JudgesOf Course Illegal Immigrants Access Public Health BenefitsIntro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

This Day in Legal History: Martial Law Post-Great Chicago FireOn October 9, 1871, in the immediate aftermath of the Great Chicago Fire, the city's mayor, Roswell B. Mason, declared a form of martial law by handing control of the city to U.S. Army General Philip Sheridan. Though no formal martial law order was issued, Sheridan exercised sweeping authority over Chicago, including the deployment of troops and armed patrols to maintain order, protect property, and enforce curfews. The fire had devastated the city, destroying thousands of buildings and leaving over 100,000 residents homeless. Amid fears of looting and social collapse, civic leaders turned to the military rather than civil institutions to reestablish control.This decision represents a critical episode in the uneasy balance between civil liberties and emergency powers. There was no legal precedent or formal legislative act granting the mayor authority to transfer governance to a military figure, raising significant constitutional concerns. The use of military force to police civilians, absent explicit legal authorization, blurred lines between civilian and military jurisdiction. While contemporary accounts often depict Sheridan's leadership as effective, his presence underscored a mistrust in the city's own law enforcement and judicial institutions.No court review or legislative inquiry ever addressed the legality of this transfer of power, setting a troubling precedent for extrajudicial emergency actions. It also reinforced the broader 19th-century trend of informal martial law declarations, especially during moments of urban unrest or disaster. Chicago's experience in 1871 reflects how crises can be used to justify the suspension of normal legal processes, often without public accountability. This ad hoc militarization of city governance, though temporary, highlighted the fragility of civil authority in moments of panic—and how quickly constitutional norms can be cast aside.Former FBI Director James Comey pleaded not guilty to charges of making false statements and obstructing a congressional investigation. The indictment alleges he misled lawmakers in 2020 about authorizing an FBI employee to leak information related to an unspecified investigation—believed to concern Hillary Clinton. The case was brought by Lindsey Halligan, a Trump loyalist with no prior prosecutorial experience, recently installed as U.S. attorney after her predecessor was removed for refusing to pursue Trump's political adversaries.The charges are seen as politically motivated, coming after Trump publicly pressured the Justice Department to act against Comey and others. Career attorneys reportedly opposed the indictment due to a lack of evidence, and prosecutors from outside the district were brought in to proceed with the case. The move has drawn sharp criticism, including from over 1,000 former DOJ officials across party lines who labeled it an attack on the rule of law.Trump has long threatened to imprison rivals, but this is the first grand jury indictment against one of them.Ex-FBI chief Comey pleads not guilty to charges brought under pressure from Trump | ReutersA Florida man has been arrested for allegedly setting the Pacific Palisades Fire in Los Angeles, a January blaze that killed 12 people, destroyed roughly 6,000 structures, and caused an estimated $150 billion in damage. Federal investigators from the ATF, LAPD, and LAFD concluded the fire was deliberately started near a hiking trail in a state park overlooking the Palisades. The suspect faces three federal charges and will be extradited to California. Because the fire was ruled intentional and led to multiple deaths, prosecutors could pursue life imprisonment or the federal death penalty under President Trump's 2025 executive order directing harsher penalties for severe crimes.Man arrested as suspect in setting California's deadly Palisades Fire, official says | ReutersPresident Trump called for the arrest of Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, both Democrats, as his administration prepared to deploy National Guard troops to Chicago over their opposition. Neither official faces criminal allegations, but both have criticized Trump's immigration policies and his use of federal troops in Democratic-led cities. Trump accused them of failing to protect ICE officers after Johnson declared Chicago an “ICE Free Zone.” Pritzker denounced Trump's remarks as authoritarian. Meanwhile, hundreds of Texas National Guard troops have gathered outside Chicago ahead of deployment, despite state lawsuits seeking to block the move. The president has also threatened to invoke federal powers to override court orders limiting troop deployments, part of a broader pattern of using federal authority against political opponents.Trump calls for jailing Democratic leaders as troops prepare for Chicago deployment | ReutersElon Musk's X Corp has reached a settlement with four former Twitter executives—including ex-CEO Parag Agrawal—who claimed they were owed $128 million in severance after being fired following Musk's 2022 takeover. The settlement's terms were not disclosed, but a federal judge delayed case deadlines to allow finalization. The executives alleged Musk falsely accused them of misconduct to avoid paying severance that included a year's salary and stock options. The deal follows a separate $500 million settlement with laid-off Twitter employees and is one of several legal disputes stemming from Musk's acquisition and mass restructuring of the company.Musk's X settles ex-Twitter executives' $128 million severance pay lawsuit | Reuters This is a public episode.

James Comey, once the untouchable face of the FBI, is finally facing charges — but not nearly enough to cover his long list of alleged abuses. While the mainstream media will obsess over the perjury count, they'll downplay the bigger story: obstruction of Congress. In this episode, we break down how Comey knowingly pushed the Russia collusion hoax, lied repeatedly to lawmakers, and bragged about entrapping Mike Flynn under false pretenses. From burying evidence to protecting Hillary Clinton's campaign, to turning Trump allies into felons, Comey's legacy is being put on trial. We explore the irony of the FBI's former director facing the same perjury charges he weaponized against others — and why obstruction may finally open the door to justice long denied.
Brad and Abbey Zerbo deliver a packed, high-energy breakdown of the James Comey indictment and the historic fallout shaking Washington. From Senator Lindsey Graham's fiery exchange with Pam Bondi to John Solomon's insider updates, the duo walks listeners through every major revelation, false statements, leaks, obstruction, and the inner-circle betrayals that could finally bring Comey down. They analyze key evidence, including McCabe's testimony, Flynn's firsthand account from The Pardon of Innocence, and the newly released tradecraft review proving how the Steele dossier was politically weaponized to frame Trump. With laughter, outrage, and razor-sharp commentary, Brad and Abbey trace the plot from Hillary Clinton's campaign to the Obama-era deep state and celebrate what could be the first domino in a long-awaited justice chain.

This Day in Legal History: Bruno Hauptmann IndictedOn October 8, 1934, Bruno Richard Hauptmann was indicted for the murder of 20-month-old Charles Lindbergh Jr., the son of famed aviator Charles Lindbergh. The case, often referred to as the “Crime of the Century,” began in March 1932 when the child was kidnapped from the Lindbergh home in Hopewell, New Jersey. Despite a ransom being paid, the boy's body was found weeks later, less than five miles from the house, sparking a national outcry and a complex investigation.The break in the case came in 1934 when marked ransom money was traced to Hauptmann, a German carpenter living in the Bronx. A search of his home turned up over $14,000 of the ransom cash, along with tools and wood experts claimed matched the homemade ladder used in the abduction. Though Hauptmann maintained his innocence, insisting the money belonged to a now-deceased friend, the evidence was enough for a grand jury to indict him for kidnapping and murder.His trial, which began in January 1935, was a media sensation, held in Flemington, New Jersey under intense public scrutiny. The prosecution leaned heavily on circumstantial evidence, handwriting analysis, and expert testimony regarding the ladder construction. The defense challenged much of the state's forensic claims, but Hauptmann was ultimately convicted and sentenced to death. He was executed in the electric chair in 1936, despite appeals and ongoing doubts about the strength of the case.The Hauptmann trial shaped public perceptions of forensic science, media influence, and due process, and contributed to the passage of the Federal Kidnapping Act, also known as the Lindbergh Law, which made kidnapping a federal crime when victims are taken across state lines.Former FBI Director James Comey is set to appear in federal court this Wednesday on charges of making false statements and obstructing a congressional investigation. The case, viewed by many as politically motivated, is the first brought by the Trump-aligned Justice Department against one of Trump's high-profile critics. Comey is accused of lying during a 2020 Senate hearing by denying he authorized FBI employees to anonymously leak information about an unspecified federal investigation, which is believed to be connected to Hillary Clinton.The charges were filed after Trump installed Lindsey Halligan—a former insurance attorney with no prior prosecutorial experience—as U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia. Halligan reportedly proceeded despite career prosecutors advising against it due to lack of evidence. Two outside prosecutors were assigned to handle the case, suggesting internal pushback.Comey maintains his innocence and has demanded a trial. Legal observers and over 1,000 former DOJ officials from both parties have condemned the prosecution, calling it a politically driven attack on the rule of law. The indictment comes after years of Trump publicly demanding prosecutions of his political enemies, including Comey, Letitia James, Adam Schiff, and John Bolton. Comey was previously fired by Trump while leading the FBI's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election—an action that led to the appointment of Special Counsel Robert Mueller.Ex-FBI chief Comey to face charges brought under pressure from Trump | ReutersU.S. District Judge Susan Illston, who previously blocked a Trump administration plan for mass federal layoffs, will now preside over a new lawsuit challenging potential layoffs tied to the ongoing partial government shutdown. The American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) and the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME) successfully argued that this new case involves the same legal issues and parties as their earlier suit, warranting Illston's continued oversight.The unions argue that laying off federal workers during a shutdown is unlawful and not an “essential government service.” They're seeking to block such layoffs, warning that allowing the administration to move forward without court intervention could result in conflicting legal rulings if handled by different judges. Illston's previous ruling in May held that President Trump could not reorganize or downsize federal agencies without congressional approval, but that decision was paused by the Supreme Court in July. In response, the administration scaled back the layoffs after many workers accepted early retirement or buyouts.In the current case, the unions claim new memos from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) and Office of Personnel Management (OPM) unlawfully permit agencies to lay off staff during the shutdown. The Trump administration has not yet implemented the threatened firings, but has blamed Democrats for the funding lapse. The White House and DOJ have not commented on the ongoing litigation.US judge who blocked Trump's mass firings will hear case over shutdown layoffs | ReutersIn September 2025, during a meeting at the White House, Turkish officials proposed a $100 million settlement to resolve the U.S. criminal case against state-owned Halkbank, sources told Reuters. The settlement offer reportedly included a key condition: Halkbank would not have to admit guilt. The bank is facing serious charges in the U.S., including fraud, money laundering, and conspiracy, for allegedly helping Iran evade economic sanctions by funneling billions through illicit financial channels.The case, brought in 2019, has long strained U.S.-Turkey relations, which were already damaged after Turkey's purchase of Russian S-400 missile systems led to U.S. sanctions and its removal from the F-35 fighter jet program. While the Trump-Erdogan meeting signaled warmer diplomatic ties, it's unclear how U.S. officials responded to the settlement offer, or whether discussions have continued.On October 7, 2025, the U.S. Supreme Court declined to hear Halkbank's appeal, allowing the criminal prosecution to proceed. In response, the bank stated it was still pursuing a diplomatic resolution and emphasized ongoing talks aimed at reconciliation between the U.S. and Turkey. Erdogan has publicly denounced the charges and raised the issue during his recent visit with Trump.Prosecutors allege Halkbank transferred over $20 billion in restricted Iranian funds, disguised transactions through front companies, and fabricated documents to mask oil-for-gold trades as food shipments. Although the floated settlement amount is far lower than previous penalties levied against European banks for similar offenses, legal experts suggest a final deal, if reached, could involve a much larger payment.Turkey floated $100 million Halkbank settlement idea at White House last month, sources say | Reuters This is a public episode.

Donald J. Trump approved the appeal of the Alaska Industrial Development and Export Authority (AIDEA), directing his Administration to promptly issue authorizations necessary for the establishment of the Ambler Road Project. This project will provide road transportation access to the Ambler Mining District. This order overturns the "Autopen Joe" Biden administration's order to halt approvals of this project. The President's announcement has a detailed list of benefits for Alaska and for the United States: The Ambler Road Project is vitally important to America's national defense and economic prosperity. An access road is crucial to unlocking critical minerals located in this currently-inaccessible area of Alaska, which has been characterized as one of the largest undeveloped copper-zinc mineral belts in the world and contains extensive deposits of copper, silver, gold, lead, cobalt, and other strategic metals. The road will provide essential surface transportation access for the more than 1,700 active mining claims in the District, supporting expanded mineral exploration, mine development, and operations. Construction of the road will directly support 2,730 jobs, driving income, spending, and economic growth in rural Alaska. Alaska is projected to receive more than $1.1 billion in revenues from mining license tax revenues, corporate income taxes, production royalties, and claim rents associated with this project. Note the strategic minerals named: Copper, silver, gold, lead, cobalt, and, we should include, rare-earth minerals, a great deal of which we are currently buying from China.

In this episode historian Doug Brinkley discusses the unprecedented ways in which Donald Trump has pushed the boundaries of presidential power. Brinkley compares Trump's actions to historic moments, such as FDR's attempts to pack the Supreme Court and Lincoln's leadership during the Civil War, but notes that Trump's use of executive orders and his ability to intimidate fellow Republicans is unparalleled. The episode covers Trump's potential to weaponize the National Guard for political gains, his circumvention of legal authority, and the broader implications for American democracy. Brinkley expresses optimism for the future but warns of the challenges posed by emerging technologies such as AI and deep fakes.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Juanita Broaddrick : You'd Better Put Some Ice On That: How I Survived Being Raped by Bill Clintonn 1999, Juanita Broaddrick burst into the public consciousness when she accused President Bill Clinton on national television of raping her in 1978 as he ran for governor in Arkansas. It was a TV appearance she dreaded and never wanted, but felt compelled to squash the rumors: it was rape. Now, with award-winning former investigative journalist Nick Lulli, she tells her story of survival; from the assault at the hands of the future president, to the veiled threats by a seemingly complicit presidential wannabe Hillary Rodham Clinton; Broaddrick believes now is the time to set the record straight and ensure victims everywhere are believed.https://amzn.to/4pYdWdXBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.
Today on Mea Culpa, I welcome back Adam Parkhomenko, Democratic strategist, former DNC National Field Director, and advisor to Hillary Clinton. As MAGA floods the media zone with its talking points, I wanted Adam's perspective as a strategist on how to combat Trump's tightening grip on power and the collapse of political accountability in Washington. We examine how Democrats lost control of the narrative and brainstorm creative ways to reclaim it. We also discuss what James Comey's indictment reveals about the state of justice, Trump's failure to improve our international standing, and the impact of Charlie Kirk's murder. From the stalled Epstein files to Trump's use of the National Guard, we expose how chaos has become the core of Trump's political strategy, and what it will take to fight back.

In 1995, there was a landmark meeting on gender equality in Beijing: the Fourth World Conference on Women. The conference produced the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action, a highly influential blueprint for advancing women's rights. It was at this conference that then–First Lady Hillary Clinton famously declared, “Human rights are women's rights and women's rights are human rights, once and for all.” Last week, at the United Nations General Assembly, there was a 30-year commemoration of this landmark conference, which has become a touchstone for advocates around the world — particularly from civil society. Today, I'm joined by two of those advocates: Bani Dugal and Liliane Nkunzimana, representatives of the Baha'i International Community to the United Nations. They explain why the conference 30 years ago was so significant, how it continues to influence debates on gender equality today, and how to keep advancing gender equality in a profoundly different geopolitical context three decades on. This episode is produced in partnership with the Baha'i International Community, an NGO that represents the worldwide Baha'i community at the UN and other international forums, where it emphasizes that recognizing humanity's interconnectedness is key to a shared global future. The Baha'i International Community recently released the book "In Full Partnership: Thirty Years of Women's Advancement at the United Nations and Beyond, " which honors 30 years since the landmark Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing and the creation of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action. You can find the book at BIC.org.
In this episode, we expose what the left is calling “fascist Republicans” and show how it's actually Democrats who have shifted their positions on immigration enforcement over the years. From Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton to Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, and beyond, we highlight historical statements and policies that align closely with today's Republican stance—but are now being painted as extreme. We break down the myths about ICE, illegal immigration, and health care for undocumented workers, revealing how history is being rewritten to frame the right as the radical party. If you want clarity on immigration enforcement, political spin, and the battle over truth in Washington, this episode cuts through the noise.

In this explosive episode, we dive into the latest battles over free speech, media manipulation, and international conflict. From Jimmy Kimmel's temporary broadcast pull to Hillary Clinton urging EU bureaucrats to censor Americans, we break down the global effort to control online discourse—and why it matters for every citizen. We also unpack the $185 billion Medicaid debate, exposing how state-level loopholes allowed undocumented immigrants to access health care and how recent legislation aims to close it. On the international front, tensions spike as the U.S. plans to provide Ukraine with intelligence and long-range strike support inside Russia, raising the stakes for NATO and potential escalation with a nuclear-armed adversary. With historical context on missile strikes, false-flag operations, and the delicate balance Trump navigated to prevent World War III, we ask: What is the real cost of these maneuvers? From domestic media bias to the edge of global conflict, this episode connects the dots the mainstream media won't show you.
This episode unpacks the media circus around Jimmy Kimmel and the supposed “first amendment crisis,” revealing the real forces shaping speech in America. From ABC's temporary pull of Kimmel's show to Hillary Clinton traveling to Europe to push the EU's Digital Services Act, we explore how censorship is being globalized and weaponized against conservative voices. We break down the difference between theatrical outrage over the FCC and actual government-backed speech monitoring, including the FBI's actions on Twitter and John Brennan's international influence. Hear how Americans' perception of free speech is shifting, with 79% now feeling it's under threat, and why the real authoritarian moves are coming from entrenched elites rather than elected Republicans. A deep dive into the clash between political theater, media narratives, and the global fight over what can—and cannot—be said online.

Trump once said he wanted generals like the Nazis. Today, at his limp MAGA rally, he made his pitch. Photos show military leaders looking stunned, confused, and struggling not to laugh. His approval ratings are collapsing, especially in swing states, as he flails in an Epstein cover-up implicating Mike Johnson, who's blocking the swearing-in of Arizona's new Democratic representative–the vote that could force a House debate on releasing the Epstein files. Trump is the Frankenstein's monster of a 50-year Christian nationalist plan using the prosperity gospel to turn America into a dictatorship, making him the most dangerous enemy from within. The Seven Mountain Mandate reads like a discarded Lord of the Rings draft where Sauron wins. It's a 50-year plan to bring a strongman like Trump to power and turn America into a dictatorship. Conceived in the 1970s by Bill Bright (Campus Crusade for Christ) and Loren Cunningham (Youth With A Mission), it emerged as a white-rage backlash to Civil Rights, bankrolled by Big Oil. Later, televangelist Lance Wallnau popularized it through Ziklag, a network for Christian nationalists worth over $25 million, and passed the torch to third-generation leaders like Charlie Kirk. Kirk's Turning Point USA targeted Matthew Boedy, a University of North Georgia professor, harassing him for speaking against guns on campus. After being placed on a “watch list,” Boedy began researching and wrote The Seven Mountains Mandate: Exposing the Dangerous Plan to Christianize America and Destroy Democracy. The Mandate's strategy is to dominate seven cultural “mountains”: Religion – Shape faith and morality to normalize fascism. Family – Patriarchal households dictate politics; LGBTQ+ people, feminists, immigrants, and academics are silenced, outlawed, and erased. Education – Raise children in a dominance culture where “might makes right” to normalize fascism. Government – Collapse church-state separation, recasting America as a “Christian republic,” not a democracy. Media – Control the narrative so news becomes propaganda. Arts & Entertainment – Capture Hollywood, TV, even TikTok, using culture as a weapon (i.e., attacks on Jimmy Kimmel). Business – The prosperity gospel – “Jesus wants you to fund my jet” – drew greed-driven donors who built the movement across generations. The goal: capture every cultural sphere until society mirrors their theology. Stopping it requires progressives to build their own generational strategy, rooted in empathy, inclusion, and solidarity.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.politix.fmDonald Trump has crossed an important redline: He ordered his administration to prosecute former FBI Director James Comey, fired the prosecutor who told him he had no case, and installed a lackey who did as ordered. In this episode: * What distinguishes the (weak, losing) Comey indictment from past abuses of prosecutorial power?* Why Comey shouldn't try to get the charges dismissed on selective prosecution grounds, and should instead demand a speedy trial.* If Trump thinks his revenge tour was “litigated in the election, might a humiliating defeat at the Comey trial be the beginning of the DOJ's new role as tip of the spear of Trump's retribution campaign? Then, on the eve of the government shutdown, Brian and Matt look ahead to likely end games. Has the Democrats' confused posture in the standoff doomed them, or can they reorient everyone in the party to make arguments they can really commit to long-term? Will the public's presumptive sense that Republicans are to blame for government shutdowns insulate Democrats from backlash? And, as long as they're keeping the House shuttered to prevent votes on releasing the Epstein files, will Republicans be able to exploit their advantages in this fight?All that, plus the full Politix archive are available to paid subscribers—just upgrade your subscription and pipe full episodes directly to your favorite podcast app via your own private feed.Further reading:* Brian argues that if Democrats want a big fight over health care, there are ways to engineer one without shoving it into a fight over the annual budget. * Matt argues Hillary Clinton should have demanded here day in court during Trump 1.0 because the email scandal was bullshit.* Brendan Nyhan on the Comey prosecution precedent.* Josh Marshall on the power dynamics of the shutdown fight.
Joe Biden needed notecards to remember who prominent people were, including Denzel Washington and Hillary Clinton. A bombshell report peels back the curtain at how confused and feeble Joe Biden really was... and they covered it all up. The Department of Transportation releases damning information about how Joe Biden's DOT was weaponized against conservatives. The travel list many in the GOP found themselves on that led to endless harassment when they traveled.
Ben opens on faith, family and the state of men in American life, pushing back on Hillary Clinton's narrative and explaining why a renewed admiration for strong fatherhood is rising. He ties it to recent cultural flashpoints and the reaction to Charlie Kirk's death. Nancy Mace joins to break down the shutdown fight, why she calls it a left flank problem for Democrats, and how suburban women are moving on women's sports and Title IX. She also lays out her South Carolina agenda on taxes, immigration and law and order, and reflects on a broader faith revival she's seeing on the ground. Brian Kilmeade weighs in on the Quantico speech and a reset toward merit in the ranks, then dives into Venezuela, media spin and 2025 politics. Ben closes on the Rowling vs Emma Watson rift, arguing the tide has turned and Rowling had it right as the culture reassesses gender ideology. Learn more about your ad choices.
