(The Center Square) – In defending the state's migrant sanctuary policies, Gov. J.B. Pritzker says he'd rather be arrested than to have Illinois residents arrested improperly. Joining the governors of New York and Minnesota Thursday in front of the U.S. House Oversight Committee, U.S. Rep. Maxwell Frost, D-Florida, asked the three governors for their response to threats of being arrested for allegedly impeding federal immigration enforcement with migrant sanctuary policies. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul said “go for it.” Pritzker said the Trump administration “can try.” “I will stand in the way of [Trump border czar] Tom Homan going after people who don't deserve to be frightened in their communities, who don't deserve to be threatened or terrorized, I would rather that he come and arrested me than to do that to the people of my state,” Pritzker said.

At least 30 people were killed when an Air India plane bound for London with 242 people on board crashed in a residential area minutes after taking off from the Indian city of Ahmedabad on Thursday, with the toll expected to climb further, authorities said. The plane was headed for Gatwick Airport, which lies south of the British capital.The governors of New York, Illinois, and Minnesota are due to testify before the House Oversight Committee on Thursday after days of protests in downtown Los Angeles over the Trump administration's enforcement of immigration law. The 3 states are among the 14 states and the hundreds of cities and counties recently listed by the Department of Homeland Security as “sanctuary jurisdictions defying federal immigration law.” The list was later removed from the department's website after criticism that it mistakenly included some local governments that support the Trump administration's immigration policies.

Regardless of his recent falling out with President Trump over the size of the “Big Beautiful Bill” tax and spending package or personal beefs, Elon Musk and his “Department of Government Efficiency” team performed at least one extremely useful public service: They highlighted the extent to which the “nongovernmental organization” (NGO) sector is actually the “basically governmental organization” (BGO) sector, with millions of dollars in grants and contracts supporting weird projects and thinly (and sometimes not even thinly) disguised Everything Leftist activism.

Today's Headlines: The Trump-Musk fallout escalated from a policy spat to full-blown political chaos in under 12 hours—starting with Trump slamming Musk over his opposition to the GOP budget bill, and spiraling into Musk accusing Trump of electoral dependence, Trump threatening SpaceX contracts, and Musk suggesting Trump appears in Epstein files. Bannon reportedly wants Trump to seize SpaceX and deport Musk. Meanwhile, Democrats on the House Oversight Committee failed to subpoena Musk over AI policy due to GOP opposition. Abroad, German Chancellor Merz met with Trump, urging stronger action on Ukraine, only to be met with bizarre WWII commentary and apathy. Trump also spoke with China's Xi Jinping to restart trade talks and posted about “positive” progress. At home, the Supreme Court struck down a legal standard that imposed stricter proof of bias on majority-group plaintiffs, reaffirming equal treatment. In foreign affairs, Chad announced a reciprocal travel ban on U.S. visitors after Trump's own ban, with a dignified mic drop from its president. And in a surreal courtroom twist, Diddy was nearly kicked out of his trial for making dramatic faces at the jury.

Well the big, beautiful bill is getting mixed reviews. So far, Elon Musk is the harshest critic, calling it a "pork-filled abomination." In the Senate, Ron Johnson and Rand Paul are holding the line to get spending down, Senator Johnson wants government spending back down to pre-pandemic levels. Congressman Andy Harris is the Chairman of the Freedom Caucus. Rep. Harris initially voted to pass the bill to get it through to the Senate. This time around Congressman Harris says if the Senate rolls back the spending cuts and doesn't get rid of the massive abuse in Medicaid, he and the Freedom Caucus will vote to sink the bill. Congressman Jim Jordan took NPR's CEO to task at a congressional hearing recently. Rep. Jordan exploited how they get stories wrong and have eighty seven Democratic employees and zero Republican employees. The real question is, are we finally done funding NPR and PBS as taxpayers? Will AI be regulated by the government? The BBB has a section that strips states of the right to make laws and regulate AI for 10 years. Will one of Biden's aides blow the whistle on the autopen before the House Oversight Committee? Jim Jordan unpacks it all with us. Featuring: Rep.

It's Thursday, time for another amazing panel show. Joining me today is Stephen Gardner, Ashley Hayek and David Avella to unpack everything that happened in Washington this week. Elon says goodbye to DOGE as his time as a special government employee comes to an end. With Elon at the helm, DOGE uncovered shocking amounts waste, fraud and abuse that was hideen from the American people. Will the department see the same results with someone else taking charge? The U.S. Court of International Trade blocked President Trump's global tariff plan he used under emergency economic powers. It's a speed bump in the Trump agenda but certainly a fight that is not over. President Trump won a libel suit against the Pulitzer Prize Board as judge ruled in his favor that on the Russia hoax perpetrated against him. It seems the Pulitzer Prize Board would rather reward fake news than promote real journalism. The House Oversight Committee is calling top Biden aides to testify on the use of the autopen and if Biden had a clue what was happening. The Republican litmus test is happening today as voting takes place to defund PBS & NPR. After Rep. Brandon Gill exposed the left-wing propaganda taking place at both PBS & NPR it should be an easy vote. It was another action-packed week and our panel has the winners and losers for you!

Today's Headlines: Representative Gerry Connolly of Virginia passed away at 75 from esophageal cancer, just weeks after announcing he would not seek re-election and being named the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee. Meanwhile, President Trump hosted South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, derailing trade discussions by screening a video alleging a white genocide in South Africa—claims Ramaphosa rejected. This comes as the administration continues to deport refugees from numerous countries while welcoming white Afrikaners. Separately, the DOJ has launched a criminal investigation into Andrew Cuomo over his COVID-era decisions as governor, raising suspicions of political motives ahead of his likely NYC mayoral bid against Eric Adams, whose own federal charges were recently dropped. The DOJ also announced it will dismiss police reform consent decrees in Louisville and Minneapolis and rescind earlier findings against the Phoenix Police Department, effectively reversing major civil rights investigations. Finally, a federal judge found the Trump administration in violation of a court order after it deported migrants—most not from South Sudan—to South Sudan, only for the flight to be rerouted to Djibouti, again without legal basis.

Democratic Rep. Gerry Connolly of Virginia died Wednesday morning at age 75, his family announced, according to CNN. In a statement, the family said Connolly died peacefully at home, surrounded by loved ones. Last month, Connolly announced he would not seek reelection and would step down from his leadership role on the House Oversight Committee following the return of his esophageal cancer, first diagnosed in November. He vowed transparency, saying he would continue serving “with grace.” Connolly had represented Virginia's 11th District since 2009 and previously served 14 years on the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors. His family remembered him as a devoted public servant who championed justice and the voiceless, saying, “His absence will leave a hole in our hearts.” Learn more about your ad choices.

Welcome to the Rocky Mountain UFO Podcast. Today, we are discussing Dr. Steven Greer's latest comments based on a recent interview he did, excerpts of which are available in our sources. Dr. Steven Greer, described as a famed researcher and retired emergency medical doctor who heads a disclosure project focused on ending the secrecy around UFOs and UAPs, was a guest on Vlad TV for an interview1. He mentioned this was the first time he was meeting the interviewer face-to-face1. During the interview, Dr. Greer discussed a variety of topics related to the UFO/UAP phenomenon and the ongoing efforts towards disclosure1. He spoke about a task force organized under the House Oversight Committee that has a number of objectives, including UAPs1. However, he noted that achieving meaningful disclosure through these efforts is hindered by the lack of a select committee with subpoena power and insufficient funding for specialized staff1.... According to his experience, even when dispositive evidence and firsthand witnesses are presented, disinformation operatives can gaslight those in Congress1. He stated that these people in Congress, while often meaning well, are not sufficiently knowledgeable about the subject1. Dr. Greer believes there are two pathways for this investigation2. The first is through Congress, which would require subpoena power to compel high-value targets to testify under oath2. The second, which he considers more viable, would require executive orders from the President and operate under the executive branch and law enforcement2.... Law enforcement, unlike Congress without subpoena power, can compel testimony, and lying to a federal agent is a felony2. He suggests referring the matter to the Department of Justice (DOJ) as it involves criminal activity, allowing them to conduct a proper investigation, pull people in for interrogation, and retrieve evidence from corporate locations and secret facilities3. He mentioned recommending five executive orders to the administration3. A significant part of the interview focused on disinformation and the hoaxing of an alien threat3.... Dr. Greer stated that individuals like Lou Elizondo and Chris Melon are professional disinformation operatives who mix truth with misinformation3.... Their agenda, according to Dr. Greer, is to convince people that aliens are a threat, thereby supporting the military-industrial complex and the cabal that has kept the secret, ultimately attempting to seize control under the ruse of an outer space threat3.... He described this as a "poison pill," where some facts are presented on the outside, but the core narrative is disinformation3. He asserted that the bigger secret is not extraterrestrials themselves, but a covert illegal operation possessing technologies that can outperform advanced human aircraft like the B2 stealth bomber3.... He claims these technologies are human-made and have existed since the 1950s3. This covert operation, he argues, is a threat to the US Constitution and is the "lynch pin" in being able to hoax an alien invasion or threat4. He described this as a 70-year plan concocted around 1953-54 to create an alien threat to unite the world around a totalitarian, militaristic situation, citing Wernher von Braun4. Dr. Greer expressed concern that Congress and the White House currently lack the bandwidth to comprehend the vastness of this problem and discern information from disinformation4. He likened the organization keeping the secret to the Wizard of Oz, skilled at scaring people because of the lack of professional staffing looking into the matter4. He warned that a "little knowledge on this is a very dangerous thing"5. He connected this concept to ideas like Project Blue Beam and fictional works like Watchmen and Independence Day, noting that the Independence Day movie was "right out of CIA scop psychological warfare scripting"5. He believes this narrative has reached saturation, citing a personal experience from 30 years ago where a first grader asked if he was afraid of being abducted by aliens, which he interpreted as evidence that "scops have reached saturation" between movies, entertainment, and ufology mythology5.... Dr. Greer also discussed the Jake Barber interview, referring to him as an Air Force veteran who was on retrieval teams out of U.S. Delta Force, contracted for operations to down and retrieve extraterrestrial vehicles or non-human intelligence (NHI) craft9. Barber was in charge of security and transport for these special operations at black sites9. Dr. Greer stated that very little of what Barber knows has come out yet9. He confirmed that the egg-shaped craft Barber came in contact with was of ET origin11. He noted that it is often hard to distinguish between a non-human craft and a reverse-engineered one unless one is an expert11.... He mentioned that any non-human shape seen has often been copycatted for false flag operations12. Regarding technology, Dr. Greer claimed that gravity control was mastered in October 1954, based on information from an intelligence source who was a top scientist at the Naval Research Labs11. He stated that after 70 years of technological development with brilliant minds and virtually unlimited black budget funding, the technology being flown could deceive even high-level officials11. He elaborated on the man-made lookalikes used for psychological warfare and to cover up real events9.... These include fake alien abductions and cattle mutilations, which he attributes to a "covert human operation," not ETs7.... He stated he has debriefed about two dozen individuals operational in programs doing this13. Most of the information on this subject, according to Dr. Greer, is "part information spun in with disinformation"13. He explained that retrieval teams can be cleared into higher levels when dealing with man-made UFOs and ET things, going beyond retrieving downed conventional aircraft13.

May 21, 2025 ~ Michigan is facing significant challenges with its new campaign finance transparency portal, hindering the ability of officials to file required disclosures. Rep. Jay DeBoyer (R-Clay Township) talks with Lloyd, Jamie, and Chris about the Oversight Committee investigating into this

We spend a good amount of time going through the released audio of Special Counsel Robert Hur's interview with President Joe Biden, which was recorded in the fall of 2023. We ask how Axios got tha audio? Also, why the sudden push by the press to throw Joe Biden under the bus? We discuss some possibilities around that as well. A caller also reminds us of the really dumb online post by former FBI Director James Comey, who wants to pretend he didn't know what it meant to ask someone to "86" the current president of the United States of America. But, if he tries to lie under oath, he will likely be caught perjuring himself, in which case he will go to jail. And, if he admits he was putting out a call for an assassination, then he is going to jail. Either way, he is in a bit of a pickle. Back to Biden's utter incompetence, we hear from Rep. James Comer (R-KY) with an ongoing House Oversight Committee investigation into who used the Autopen to sign off on bills, Executive Orders and pardons? This leads Comer to want to depose senior staff and cabinet officials to ask who was really running the country? During the Vulcan Mind-meld, fellow broadcaster BK, from BK on the Air, joins me to discuss some of the influenses in our lives. We then discuss how we didn't list bands or music influences, but will likely have that discussion as a homework assignment for next week.

The National Labor Relations Board's inspector general is conducting an investigation into the Department of Government Efficiency's work at the agency. In April, an IT staffer named Daniel Berulis filed an official whistleblower disclosure with Congress highlighting concerns over DOGE's practices at the NLRB and data that may have been removed from the agency. In response to the disclosure, Rep. Gerry Connolly, D-Va., ranking member of the House Oversight Committee, requested an investigation in a letter to Luiz A. Santos, acting inspector general of the Labor Department, and Ruth Blevins, inspector general at the NLRB. Timothy Bearese, an attorney at the NLRB currently serving as its acting director of congressional and public affairs, told FedScoop that the agency has no comment but “can confirm that the OIG is conducting an investigation, as requested by Ranking Member Connolly.” Back In April, Bearese told NPR that the NLRB had not granted DOGE access to agency systems. At that time, he also said that there had been a past investigation based on Berulis' concerns that “determined that no breach of agency systems occurred.” A spokesperson for House Oversight Committee Democrats told FedScoop on Thursday that “there are multiple investigations into Elon Musk's violations of sensitive investigatory information at the NLRB.” House Oversight Democrats are asking a Treasury Department watchdog to open an investigation into DOGE's data and IT modernization dealings at the IRS following reports of an internal “hackathon” at the tax agency that may have involved Palantir. In a letter sent Thursday to Heather Hill, acting head of the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration, House Oversight ranking member Gerry Connolly, D-Va., cited “deep concern” over reporting in Wired last month that revealed plans for a 30-day sprint where DOGE engineers and a third-party vendor — potentially the data analytics giant Palantir — would create a new application programming interface connected to taxpayer data. That API, Wired reported, would essentially serve as a storage center for all IRS data and enable agency systems to interact with unknown cloud services. Building a “mega API” is likely connected to plans for a “master database” that also pulls in data from the Department of Homeland Security and the Social Security Administration, according to Wired, part of a Trump administration effort to track and surveil immigrants. “The reported data centralization and integration effort could undermine intentional compartmentalization of IRS systems,” which raises “serious privacy questions,” Connolly wrote.

Chuck opens with an analysis of President Trump's controversial upcoming Middle East trip, focusing on reports that Trump will receive a luxury Boeing airplane as a gift from Qatar. He characterizes this as potentially "the most corrupt bargain a president has ever made," questioning the ethics and legality of such an arrangement while examining Trump's pattern of personal enrichment in office. The discussion extends to Trump's cryptocurrency ventures, the growing influence of Gulf states in American politics, and the administration's unorthodox approaches to foreign policy and homeland security.Then he's joined by a rising star in the Democratic party, Texas Representative Jasmine Crockett. She provides insights into her rapidly growing Dallas district and discusses the economic benefits of immigration that contrast sharply with current policies. Crockett, known for her viral moments in congressional hearings, offers a candid assessment of the partisan circus in the House Oversight Committee and the ideological divide within the Democratic Party. The conversation delves into factors behind Trump's victory, whether racism and misogyny impacted Kamala Harris's campaign, and the complex political landscape in Texas, including potential opportunities for Democrats if Ken Paxton defeats John Cornyn in a future primary.Finally, the episode concludes with an "Ask Chuck" segment addressing why abortion has faded from national discourse despite its continued importance.Timeline:00:00 Introduction01:55 Trump's first planned overseas trip is to the middle east02:50 Trump to receive a luxury Boeing airplane as a gift from Qatar04:50 Most corrupt bargain a president has ever made07:10 Whether it's illegal or not, it's a terrible look08:20 Trump didn't want to wait to get a new Air Force One09:15 Trump believes he's untouchable10:30 Trump's crypto token is purely a bribery scam12:30 Will any elected Republicans stand up to Trump?14:30 Trump views personal enrichment as a commission 16:00 The gulf states are openly bribing American politicians17:45 It was good that Rubio and Vance intervened in India/Pakistan conflict19:50 Homeland security is running campaign ads with taxpayer dollars22:30 Trump's Iran deal won't get done until after his middle east trip24:30 Taking a plane as a gift feels like a bad movie plot25:25 Jasmine Crockett joins the Chuck ToddCast! 25:25 Tour of TX-30 (Dallas) 28:55 TX-30 is a hub for aviation 31:45 Dallas is growing exponentially 33:40 How can St. Louis be revitalized? 37:15 Immigrants produce economic dynamism and we're treating them horribly 39:45 How important are viral moments for political communications 43:25 The partisan circus in the oversight committee 44:40 We have people in government that don't understand how it works* 45:40 DOGE hearing became about trans people competing in fencing 47:25 Is it a generational divide or ideological divide in the Democratic party 48:25 Some members cling to the institutions while they're burning around them* 50:10 State of the Union displayed the differences of approach between members 51:25 How did Democrats end up in this situation? 53:15 Why did Trump win? 55:25 How much did racism and misogyny factor into Kamala Harris losing? 56:40 Did Harris's background as a prosecutor help or hurt her? 59:10 Trump's name being on buildings sold the public on his business acumen 1:01:05 Should Harris take another shot at the presidency?* 1:02:25 Democratic voters don't want "establishment" candidates 1:04:10 Democrats are fighting an uphill battle 1:05:10 Is Texas a 3 party state with two Republican wings? 1:06:10 If Ken Paxton beats John Cornyn, the Texas senate seat will be in play 1:08:40 Did Democrats miss the moment in Texas? 1:10:25 Will the Luka trade leave a lasting mark on Dallas? 1:11:10 Is she running for oversight chair? 1:11:35 Her advice for Hakeem Jeffries1:12:45 Chuck's thoughts on interview with Jasmine Crockett 1:13:15 Ask Chuck 1:13:30 Why has abortion disappeared from the national discourse? 1:16:30 Please let the Wizards get the #1 pick and Cooper Flagg(Timestamps may vary based on advertisements)

This week is mainly devoted to listener questions and feedback. First, Ralph answers some of the questions you have submitted over the past few weeks. Then we invite back last week's guest, Erica Payne, of Patriotic Millionaires, to respond to your very thoughtful comments on the interview we did with that group's plan for preserving democracy by taxing the rich. Plus, Ralph highlights the outrages of the Trump/Musk assault on government programs that help ordinary people.Erica Payne is the founder and president of Patriotic Millionaires, an organization of high-net-worth individuals that aims to restructure America's political economy to suit the needs of all Americans. Their work includes advocating for a highly progressive tax system, a livable minimum wage, and equal political representation for all citizens. She is the co-author, with Morris Pearl, of Tax the Rich: How Lies, Loopholes and Lobbyists Make the Rich Even Richer.The real reason for taxation is democracy protection.Erica PayneI think the question is not: do we need to fix the estate tax? The question is: what is the best, most defensible mechanism through which you can tax the transfer of wealth from one generation to the other in order to protect American democracy from dynastic wealth—that is sufficient that you find five generations from now Elon Musk's kid isn't spending as much money on these elections as their great great great great great granddaddy is.Erica PayneAusterity applied at a federal level to a society that is in distress does the exact opposite of what the proponents of austerity are saying it should do. The tightening of the belt actually cuts off the circulation of the society.Erica PayneNews 5/9/251. While the Catholic clergy convene in Rome for the Papal Conclave, Pope Francis graces the world with one final gift. Vatican News reports, “His popemobile, the very vehicle from which he waved and was close to millions of faithful all around the world, is being transformed into a mobile health unit for the children of Gaza.” This article states this was Francis' “final wish,” and quotes his refrain that “Children are not numbers. They are faces. Names. Stories. And each one is sacred.” The vehicle is reportedly being outfitted with equipment for “diagnosis, examination, and treatment – including rapid tests for infections, diagnostic instruments, vaccines, suture kits, and other life-saving supplies,” and it will be staffed by doctors and medics. Yet, given Israel's track record for the destruction of medical facilities in Gaza, it is unclear how long this mobile health unit itself will survive.2. In more distressing news from Gaza, CNN reports that “A Gaza-bound activist aid ship [part of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition] caught fire and issued an SOS, after what its organizers claimed was an Israeli drone attack off the coast of Malta…[on] Friday.” Per CNN, the ship was due to make port in Malta and pick up “a large contingent of activists” there before departing for Gaza. These included environmental activist Greta Thunberg and retired US Army Colonel Mary Ann Wright. Thunberg said this flotilla “is one of many attempts to open up a humanitarian corridor and…[try] to break Israel's illegal siege on Gaza,” adding “for two months now, not a single bottle of water has entered Gaza…it's a systematic starvation of 2 million people.” The United Nations World Food Programme said this week “its warehouses are…empty; soup kitchens that are still running are severely rationing their last stocks; and what little food remains in Gaza's markets is being sold for exorbitant prices that most cannot afford.”3. Pro-Palestine activists scored a major victory in Michigan this week. The Guardian reports, “Michigan's attorney general, Dana Nessel, announced on Monday that she was dropping all charges against seven pro-[Palestine] demonstrators arrested last May at a University of Michigan encampment.” As this report notes, “The announcement came just moments before the judge was to decide on a defense motion to disqualify Nessel's office over alleged bias.” The Guardian itself published a major report “detailing Nessel's extensive personal, financial and political connections to university regents calling for the activists to be prosecuted,” last October. Defense attorney Amir Makled is quoted saying “This was a case of selective prosecution…rooted in bias, not in public safety issues…We're hoping this sends a message to other institutions locally and nationally that protest is not a crime, and dissent is not disorder.”4. In another legal victory, Prem Thakker reported on May 6th that “A federal court has [denied] the Trump administration's attempt to move Mahmoud Khalil's case…out of New Jersey.” The government attempted to move the venue to Louisiana, where they have Khalil detained. A press release by the ACLU, their New York and New Jersey affiliates, and the Center for Constitutional Rights states, “It is the fundamental job of the judiciary to stand up to…government manipulation of our basic rights. We hope the court's order sends a strong message to other courts around the country facing government attempts to shop for favorable jurisdictions by moving people detained on unconstitutional immigration charges around and making it difficult or impossible for their lawyers to know where to seek their immediate release.”5. Trump has released his budget for Fiscal Year 2026. This budget cuts nondefense spending by 23%, per Reuters, while allocating 75% of discretionary spending to military and police, per Stephen Semler of the Cost of War Project. This includes a 13% increase in military spending that tips the Pentagon budget over $1 trillion for the first time. So much for increasing government efficiency.6. At the same time, this country's infrastructure and transportation safety agencies continue to crumble. Just this week, NPR reported “Hundreds of flight delays and cancellations…[hit]… Newark Liberty International Airport at once: [due to] air traffic controller staffing shortages, aging technology, bad weather and the closure of one of the airport's busiest runways.” The air traffic controller staffing shortages, a chronic issue, has been compounded in recent months by the mass layoffs initiated by the Trump administration. NBC News reports that one air traffic controller handling Newark airspace said, “Don't fly into Newark. Avoid Newark at all costs.”7. It might be nice to have competent, energetic leadership among the Democrats on the House Oversight Committee right about now. Unfortunately, the party opted to install 75-year-old, cancer-ridden Gerry Connolly to serve as Ranking Member on that committee instead of AOC. Now, Axios reports Connolly is stepping down from this position after just four months and will not seek reelection to his seat in Congress, citing his declining health. AOC, once-bitten, has opted not to seek the position a second time, the Hill reports. Instead, the top contenders emerging to fill Conolly's seat are Stephen Lynch, a 70-year-old Congressman who won his seat in 2001 and is currently filling Conolly's role on an interim basis, and Eleanor Holmes-Norton, the non-voting delegate representing Washington D.C. Norton is the most senior Democrat on the committee at 87-years-old, having assumed office in 1991.8. Another ghost is coming back to haunt the Democrats: former Senator Bob Menendez. The New Jersey Globe reports, “The New Jersey Attorney General's office will seek a court order to permanently bar…Menendez from ever holding public employment in the state following his conviction on federal corruption charges last year.” Critically if a Superior Court judge approves the action, Menendez could lose his state pension. Menendez still draws over $1,000 per month from his New Jersey public employee pension, even after being sentenced to 11 years in prison for corruption last July. More recently, Menendez has sought to cozy up to Trump in an effort to obtain a pardon. So far, no dice.9. In some positive news, Mexican President Claudia Sheinbaum continues an unbelievable run. Back in April, KJZZ reported that Mexico will invest nearly $3 billion in “food sovereignty,” to “produce more staples like corn, beans and rice in Mexico over the next five years.” This money will be directed at small and medium sized farms in Mexico and is intended to anchor both the rural economy and the nation's food supply amidst the growing uncertainty of trade with the United States vis a vis Trump's erratic trade policy. Then, after May Day, Labor Minister Marath Bolaños said that “before the end of President Claudia Sheinbaum's term…the government would gradually install a…40-hour workweek,” Mexico News Daily reports. The standard workweek in Mexico currently sits at 48 hours. As this report notes, the 40-hour workweek is Number 60 on Sheinbaum's list of 100 promises. Americans can only dream of having a government that even makes that many promises, let alone keeps them. Perhaps the most impressive of Sheinbaum's recent actions however is her recent rejection of Trump's attempt to strongarm her into allowing American troops to enter Mexico. Democracy Now! reports Sheinbaum told the American president, “The territory is sacrosanct. Sovereignty is sacrosanct. Sovereignty is not for sale.”10. Finally, on the other end of the presidential spectrum, there's Trump furiously posting on Truth Social about the “Movie Industry in America…DYING a very fast death,” deeming that this is “a concerted effort by other Nations and, therefore, a National Security threat,” and threatening a “100% Tariff on any and all Movies coming into our Country that are produced in Foreign Lands.” Obviously, this screed is basically nonsensical and it remains to be seen what will actually come of this threat, but what is notable is the response from organized labor. The International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees (IATSE) issued a statement threading the needle between supporting Trump's effort to “return and maintain U.S. film and television jobs, while not…harming the industry overall.” On the other hand, the Teamsters – led by Sean O'Brien who has tied himself to Trump more and more since he spoke at the 2024 RNC – issued a statement “thank[ing] President Trump for boldly supporting good union jobs when others have turned their heads.” Would such a policy truly revitalize the workforce of the American entertainment industry? We'll have to wait for the sequel to find out.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard. Get full access to Ralph Nader Radio Hour at www.ralphnaderradiohour.com/subscribe

Jason Chaffetz, Fox News Contributor, former Chairman of the House Oversight Committee, and author of Puppeteers: The People Who Control the People Who Control America, joined The Guy Benson Show today to unpack conservative concerns over reports that President Trump might raise taxes on certain income brackets, something that could alarm the markets and fellow conservatives.

We are deeply saddened to share that Congressman Gerry Connolly has resigned as Ranking Member of the House Oversight Committee, citing his ongoing battle with esophageal cancer. Congressman Connolly has been a dedicated public servant throughout his career, and we send him and his family strength and support during this difficult time. But as Don warned back in December, the Democratic Party missed an important opportunity. Instead of selecting a younger, more dynamic leader like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, they stuck with the "safe" choice, and now find themselves scrambling for new leadership at a critical moment. Join Don as he revisits the warning he gave months ago, and breaks down what this moment means for the future of Democratic leadership, and why bold choices matter. Learn more about your ad choices.

It was a busy news weekend so it's a pretty jam-packed show today. First Emma and Sam take in the latest Trump administration spin on the blowback from their self-imposed tariff disaster. After that, they're joined by The Nation's legal analyst and justice correspondent Elie Mystal who breaks down some of the overarching legal issues that have emerged in Trump's first 100 days. Elie also has a new book out, “Bad Law: Ten Popular Laws That Are Ruining America" which is available here: https://thenewpress.org/books/bad-law/  Also check out Elie's writing in The Nation: In a Normal World, Harvard's Lawsuit Against Trump Would Be a Slam Dunk: https://www.thenation.com/authors/elie-mystal/  Did the Supreme Court Just Grow a Spine? https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/did-the-supreme-court-just-grow-a-spine/ After that, Sam and Emma react to the news that Rep. Gerry Connolly is stepping down as ranking member of the House Oversight Committee due to his worsening health. Basically at this point there's no good reason that the party shouldn't back AOC to replace him. In the Fun Half, Sam, Emma and Matt react to "Mr. Wonderful" attacking AOC by saying she's against the American dream because she's rallying tens of thousands of people against oligarchs. Then, Republican congressman Mike Lawler gets shouted out by a room full of his constituents over his acquiescence to Donald Trump. Meanwhile, Illinois governor J.B. Pritzker is in New Hampshire (gee, I wonder why) where he gave a fiery speech where he calls for mass protests against the Trump administration, saying that Republicans "must not know peace."

Do you think the government is too big yet? Why have we allowed this to happen? And why, now that it's being scaled back, are people fighting to defend the bloat? Jason Chaffetz is a Fox News Contributor and former chairman of the House Oversight Committee.

The Katherine Massey Book Club @ The C.O.W.S. hosts the 5th study session on Abraham Bolden's The Echo From Dealey Plaza. This month, the House Oversight Committee's Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets heard testimony from Oliver Stone, Jefferson Morley, and Eugene DiEugenio. The proceedings revealed White CIA officers repeatedly lied under oath during several official hearings into the assassination of Pres. Kennedy. White CIA officers like James Angleton accessed 198 pages of classified information on Lee Harvey Oswald days before the 1963 murder in Dallas. The Task Force even released the CIA written report which flatly rejects the lone gunman theory that Oswald alone murdered the president. During last week's session, the Chicago trial against Mr. Bolden begins with a parade of people classified as black being called to testify to his misdeeds. Readers were especially struck by Richard Walters, an illiterate black male who worked as an "informant" for the secret service. He testified that he signed a statement attesting to Bolden's guilt and general niggardly nature. We pondered how you verify a written document or sign it if you can't read. Judge Joseph Sam Perry, Racist Suspect, stonewalled George Howard's every attempt to defend his client and, somehow, the transcript to this important trial is incomplete. #GoneToTexas #TheCOWS16Years CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#

During last week's session, Bolden told us that he was eventually charged with scheming to pilfer classified documents with negro hoodlums. White officers searched his residence, and, according to Bolden's wife Deborah, stole $400 cash. They left no receipt. Bolden spoke with the press about the specious charges against him. His black father phoned him long distance from St. Louis, Missouri to tell his son Abraham to shut up. A sentiment Bolden's black Chicago attorney George Howard vigorously endorsed. #GoneToTexas #ChickensComingHomeToRoost #TheCOWS16Years CALL IN NUMBER: 605.313.5164 CODE: 564943#

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: 4:00pm- On Monday night, The Atlantic published an article erroneously claiming the Trump Administration “mistakenly” deported a Maryland father to a terrorism confinement center in El Salvador. During Tuesday's press briefing, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the magazine's story is not true and that the individual in question is, in fact, a member of the MS-13 gang—which has been designated as a foreign terrorist organization. Leavitt explained: "If you just saw the headline from…The Atlantic magazine this morning, you would think this individual was father of the year." 4:30pm- On Monday, the House Oversight Committee's Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets held a hearing on the assassination of President John F.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Episode (04/01/2025): 3:05pm- On Monday night, Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) began a filibuster to protest the Trump Administration and its policies—claiming the administration has “inflicted pain” and rejected “common decency.” Booker is now on his 20th hour of speaking from the Senate floor and has vowed to speak “for as long as I am physically able.” While filibustering the Civil Rights Act of 1957, then-Senator Strom Thurmond set the record for longest speech on the Senate floor at 24 hours and 18 minutes. Is this Booker's way of keeping his name in the news so he can set himself up for yet another presidential run? 3:30pm- Senator Dave McCormick—United States Senator from Pennsylvania—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his new bipartisan bill to “combat the scourge of fentanyl.” Sen. McCormick also talks about his efforts to place term limits on House and Senate members, President Donald Trump's expected tariff adoption, and politicized district court judges doing their best to upend Trump Administration policies. 3:50pm- Approaching his 21st continuous hour of speaking from the Senate floor, Sen.
