Vanity Fair’s deep dive into Trump’s second term is gaining attention. It reportedly reveals power players, strategy shifts, and controversial moves. Lauren Irwin from the Deseret News joins to unpack Susie Wiles’ role as White House Chief of Staff, the Epstein files, and what’s next for the administration.

Topics covered on this episode of KSL's Inside Sources include: Colorado River Crisis: Warm Winters and Water Woes Rep. Doug Fiefia Responds to Tonga Travel Ban Inside Trump’s Second Term: Susie Wiles and the ‘Junkyard Dogs’ Home Buying in 2026: Your Ultimate Checklist

Washington was rocked by an explosive new Vanity Fair article that pulls back the curtain on life inside Trump's White House, and the revelations are stunning. The piece is based on a year's worth of on-the-record conversations with Susie Wiles, Trump's chief of staff, who rarely speaks to the press. Over 11 interviews, Wiles paints a vivid and troubling picture of a volatile president, describing what she calls Trump's “alcoholic's personality,” ongoing internal chaos, and mounting foreign policy tensions, including a brewing conflict involving Venezuela. Don breaks down the most jaw-dropping revelations from the article, what it reveals about the dysfunction at the highest levels of power, and why these disclosures matter, not just as gossip, but as a serious warning about leadership, stability, and decision-making in the White House.

The New Yorker staff writer Katy Waldman joins Tyler Foggatt to discuss how the Kennedy Center, the premier performing-arts hub in Washington, D.C., has been transformed under President Trump's second term—and under his chaotic and unprecedented chairmanship of the organization. They talk about this year's Kennedy Center Honors, which featured a group of honorees that reflect the President's personal tastes, as well as the past year of mass firings, boycotts, and programming changes that have followed the Trump-led upheaval inside the institution. They also examine Trump's relationship to arts and culture, and how the planned White House ballroom reflects the kind of cultural legacy he hopes to leave behind. This week's reading: “How the Kennedy Center Has Been Transformed by Trumpism,” by Katy Waldman “The Trump Administration's Chaos in the Caribbean,” by Jonathan Blitzer “How to Leave the U.S.A.,” by Atossa Araxia Abrahamian “The Weird Spectacle of the World Cup Draw,” by Louisa Thomas “Is the Supreme Court Unsure About Birthright Citizenship?,” by Amy Davidson Sorkin The Political Scene draws on the reporting and analysis found in The New Yorker for lively conversations about the big questions in American politics.

Immigration enforcement has reshaped the country, with border encounters at 60-year lows, over two million deportations in eleven months, and millions of visa and asylum cases frozen. Democrats fight the White House in court as Trump calls for expanding denaturalization efforts, including cases like Rep. Ilhan Omar. Federal downsizing accelerates, DEI programs face funding cuts, and the Pentagon prepares to process critical minerals on US military bases. Abroad, the Administration escalates pressure on Venezuela with the dramatic seizure of a sanctioned oil tanker, pushes Mexico to deliver overdue treaty water or face tariffs, and backs a conservative candidate in Honduras as elections tighten. Nicaragua faces new penalties for helping funnel migrants to the US border. In Asia, China falls short on soybean purchases, Ford receives rare earth magnet approvals, and Trump allows Nvidia to sell certain chips to China to maintain leverage. Fighting erupts again between Thailand and Cambodia despite recent US-brokered peace. In Europe, Trump urges Ukraine to negotiate land concessions and rebukes European leaders for failing to deliver meaningful support. And in Africa, the US prepares a billion-dollar investment in Congo's rail network to secure minerals, even as conflict reignites in the region.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: Trump National Security Strategy, immigration enforcement, deportations, denaturalization, Ilhan Omar, border policy, federal downsizing, DEI programs, Perpetua Resources, Venezuela oil tanker, Mexico water treaty, Honduras election, Nicaragua sanctions, China soybean purchases, Nvidia H200 chips, Ford rare earths, Thailand Cambodia conflict, Ukraine peace deal, Congo rail investment

The Trump administration released its NSS in the last few days, and the media in the U.S. and all over the world is buzzing about what this strategy means.

On Monday, a federal judge threw out the criminal cases filed by the Department of Justice against former FBI director James Comey and New York Attorney General Letitia James. When President Trump took office in January, he made it clear that retribution against his perceived political enemies was a key part of his second-term agenda. The cases against Comey and James were a high profile part of that strategy, and the White House does not seem inclined to accept this outcome. On today’s Big Take podcast, host Sarah Holder is joined by Bloomberg senior national political reporter Nancy Cook and Department of Justice reporter Chris Strohm to discuss the stakes of the Comey and James cases, the role the DOJ has played in carrying out Trump’s second-term agenda — and what to expect next.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Last night both houses of Congress overwhelmingly voted to force the justice department to release the Epstein files. We could see the contents made public within days. But the vote itself, long resisted by Trump, has left the President looking weaker and more friendless amongst the MAGA base than he's ever been. Is he starting to look like a lame duck President? And are Republicans imagining a MAGA world that comes after Trump? Or will they quickly revert to fealty? Later, the college professor in exile from America after being targeted by death threats for his academic work on Antifa.The News Agents USA is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal -> https://nordvpn.com/thenewsagents Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee

Donald Trump's brain has completely the process of completely breaking down after the breathtaking losses that Republicans suffered in this week's election. Following their embarrassing defeats, Trump met with Senate Republicans this week to discuss reopening the government, but he couldn't stop himself from veering off course to talk about things that aren't even real. The man is absolutely off his rocker, to put it gently.A very panicked Steve Bannon begged Donald Trump this week to do everything in his power to overturn the massive electoral victories that Democrats achieved on Tuesday. Bannon is urging Trump to use the Department of Justice to challenge election results, in spite of the fact that there's zero evidence that anything out of the ordinary happened. Bannon was so cocky a week ago when he claimed Trump would serve a third term, but a healthy dose of reality has turned him into a whiny baby. Kristi Noem's Department of Homeland Security decided to mock a woman who wrote an op-ed for USA Today over the fact that her husband - who is in the country LEGALLY - has been detained for weeks by ICE. Noem's department falsely claims that the man, a British journalist, was supporting terrorist organizations, even though they have failed to provide a shred of evidence to support this claim. The agency is in the business of cruelty, and we all need to realize that they are pure evil. This week's electoral losses for the Republican Party appear to have been a wake up call to many members of the GOP - including those INSIDE Trump's administration. According to a new report, this "the emperor has no clothes" moment could cause some of Trump's most trusted insiders to turn against him, or at the very least start providing a little more pushback against his insane plans and goals. Text and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay up to date on all of Farron's content: https://www.youtube.com/FarronBalancedFollow Farron on social media!

Life on college campuses has changed dramatically in the last 10 months. While institutions of higher education continue to reel from the Trump administration's top-down attacks and scramble to adjust, workers on campus say that their universities are simultaneously expanding their own internal repression and surveillance apparatuses to squash dissent.

Stephen Miller is the ultimate suck-up, a master of shameless flattery whose influence keeps him at the center of Trump's orbit. Michael Wolff joins Joanna Coles to unpack how Miller's relentless devotion to Trump reflects the chaos and destruction in the East Wing.

They preview their first live ‘Inside Trump's Head' event at the Museum of the City of New York, where Wolff promises more revelations about Trump, Epstein, and the ecosystem that enables them.

While President Donald Trump did not receive the Nobel Peace Prize this year, he could be the odds on favorite to win the distinguished award in 2026 because of his work brokering peace deals or ceasefires in eight different conflicts this year.  Trump's deal-making diplomacy comes as left-wing critics thought this level of success impossible because of Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio's efforts to completely reform the State Department. The critics were wrong.  State Department Deputy Spokesman Tommy Pigott joins ⁠“The Signal Sitdown”⁠ to provide an inside look at the State Department overhaul and how Trump has managed to find pathways to peace all over the world. The Biden administration's poor prioritization of America and its interests was painfully on display inside the State Department that Trump and Rubio inherited. Things were so bad, in fact, that Trump's political appointees had a difficult time simply tracking down just how many people actually worked for the state department. While many challenges remain, Pigott told The Daily Signal, “I think as Americans, we can be proud that we have a president who is a peacemaker.” Keep Up With The Daily Signal   Sign up for our email newsletters:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.dailysignal.com/email⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠     Subscribe to our other shows:    The Tony Kinnett Cast: ⁠https://megaphone.link/THEDAILYSIGNAL2284199939⁠ The Signal Sitdown: ⁠https://megaphone.link/THEDAILYSIGNAL2026390376⁠   Problematic Women:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠https://megaphone.link/THEDAILYSIGNAL7765680741⁠   Victor Davis Hanson: ⁠https://megaphone.link/THEDAILYSIGNAL9809784327⁠     Follow The Daily Signal:    X:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠https://x.com/intent/user?screen_name=DailySignal⁠ Instagram:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.instagram.com/thedailysignal/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  Facebook:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://www.facebook.com/TheDailySignalNews/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  Truth Social:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ https://truthsocial.com/@DailySignal⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠  YouTube:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/dailysignal?sub_confirmation=1⁠    Subscribe on your favorite podcast platform and never miss an episode.

The Trump Administration is investing like a hedge fund by taking stakes in companies tied to national security. From a $9 billion stake in Intel to investments in rare earth and lithium producers, the White House is putting taxpayer money directly into strategic sectors.

When the Department of Justice has to investigate politically sensitive matters, those investigations are typically handled by outside prosecutors known as Special Counsels: independent investigators given the freedom to unearth the dirtiest dirt against executive branch officials, including the president.  Kara speaks with CNN senior legal analyst, former prosecutor, and best-selling author Elie Honig about his latest book, When You Come at the King: Inside DOJ's Pursuit of the President, from Nixon to Trump. They discuss the history of the DOJ's independent investigations, the Trump administration's current (and mostly successful) attempts to weaponize the DOJ, the Supreme Court's presidential immunity ruling, and recommendations for fixing the system.

The Defense Department is outlining plans to send troops to Chicago as soon as September. These plans have been in the works for weeks – long before Trump's declaration Friday that “it won't even be tough” to send troops to the third-largest city in the U.S. Pentagon reporter Dan Lamothe uncovered the details of these military plans, which are part of Trump's broader crackdown on American cities. Dan speaks with host Colby Itkowitz about what a troop deployment in Chicago could look like, what legal arguments the administration is making and what we can learn from the military's presence in Los Angeles and D.C. Today's show was produced by Laura Benshoff, with help from Thomas Lu. It was mixed by Sean Carter and edited by Reena Flores.

In this episode of 'Inside Trump's Head', cohosts Joanna Coles and Trump biographer Michael Wolff unravel Trump's odd displays of loyalty to Putin and the secretive negotiations over Ukraine that alarmed U.S. allies.

From the bizarre secrecy surrounding their one-on-one sessions to the global risks of Trump's concessions, this is a revealing look at how the Trump–Putin relationship reshaped world politics and exposed the vulnerabilities inside Trump's head. And Wolff drops an extraordinary new revelation about a meeting Jeffrey Epstein had with Vladimir Putin. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
