Ralph welcomes back Erica Payne, founder of Patriotic Millionaires, to update us on that group's latest efforts to save American democracy by lobbying to raise wages for workers and tax the rich. Plus, according to our resident constitutional expert, Bruce Fein, the count of Trump's impeachable offenses is now up to twenty-two and rising faster than a Space X rocket.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.What we saw on January 20th, I believe, was the result of a global oligarchical coup who just took the Queen on the chessboard. When you've got three people whose combined worth is around a trillion dollars standing behind who is an unethical at least, criminal at worst billionaire president, Houston, we have a problem here. And the problem is not actually Donald Trump. The problem is the preconditions that led to the rise of a vulnerability to an authoritarian leader and an oligarchy. And that vulnerability was brought about by the actions of both parties over decades.Erica PayneIf you ran a business, Ralph, would you ever fire your accounts receivable department? No. It would be the last department you would cut. So then it says he's either stupid because that's what he's cutting, which I think is probably inaccurate. So if he's not stupid, then why is he doing it? And he's doing it for the same reason that lawmakers have hacked at the IRS budget forever—they don't want their donors to get taxed. They don't want their donors to be audited. And so they cut the cops. So all these folks who are griping about black Americans calling to defund the police are actually defunding the police that is keeping them in line and keeping them honest.Erica PayneAt a divided moment in America, I think we can agree that the federal government shouldn't tax people into poverty, and (to the extent necessary) rich people should pick up the difference.Erica PayneBruce Fein is a Constitutional scholar and an expert on international law. Mr. Fein was Associate Deputy Attorney General under Ronald Reagan and he is the author of Constitutional Peril: The Life and Death Struggle for Our Constitution and Democracy, and American Empire: Before the Fall.I start out with the fundamental idea of due process—you simply cannot deprive someone of liberty without giving them an opportunity to explain or to refute what allegations the government has made. And the reason why I start out with that, Ralph, is we've had an experiment in World War II with what happens when you have no due process. We did that with 120,000 Japanese Americans. No, we just said that they're all likely to commit espionage or sabotage, got to put them in concentration camps. We made 120,000 errors (and later apologized for it in 1988). So there's a reason due process is not simply an academic concept. It's essential to preventing these kinds of egregious instances of injustice from happening.Bruce FeinThe Democrats and a lot of liberal economists are not keeping up with the horror show that's going on. They don't use words like cruel and vicious. They don't turn Trump's words like deranged, crazed, corrupt on him. They're still using words like authoritarian practices, or problematic, or distressing, or disconcerting, or concerning. They're not catching up with the horror show here. That's why Trump continues to have a soliloquy. The Democratic Party is now having gatherings to see how are they going to collectively deal with Trump? How does a bank deal with a bank robber? They let the bank robber rob the bank and flee with the gold while they deliberate how they're going to deal with a bank robber they see coming into the bank?Ralph NaderNews 5/2/251. At the eleventh hour, Representative Jim Jordan – Chair of the House Judiciary Committee – pulled his measure to strip the Federal Trade Commission of its antitrust enforcement powers and consolidate those within the Justice Department, Reuters reports. “The House panel…had included the proposal in its budget package on Monday. During a hearing on the package…the committee passed an amendment that would remove the measure.” Trump's FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson opposed Jordan's move and intervened with the White House. As Reuters notes, “The proposal mirrored the One Agency Act, a Republican bill that has gotten support from Elon Musk…[which] would effectively repeal the FTC's...authority to sue companies over unfair methods of competition, which the agency is using in cases against pharmacy benefit managers, Amazon…and John Deere.” In short, the FTC's antitrust powers survive today, but there is no guarantee about tomorrow.2. Yet, while avoiding the worst possible outcome on the corporate crime front, the Trump administration is still hard at work going soft on corporate crooks. Public Citizen's Rick Claypool reports “Two Wells Fargo execs had their fines reduced by 90% (related to the bank's accounting scandal) by Trump's [Office of the Comptroller of the Currency].” Claypool links to a piece in Radical Compliance, which explains that “David Julian, former chief auditor at Wells Fargo, saw his fines cut from $7 million to $100,000 [and] Paul McLinko, executive audit director, had his fines cut from $1.5 million to $50,000.” Both Julian and McLinko were part of the senior leadership team at Wells Fargo in the 2010s, when regulators “charged the bank with turning a blind eye to employees opening bank accounts without customer consent to hit sales quotas. That misconduct eventually led to a $3 billion settlement with Wells Fargo in 2020.”3. Lest you think the Democrats are in danger of seriously opposing Trump's policies, the Bulwark reports that House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is putting the kibosh on the recent spate of Democrats' trips to El Salvador exposing the reality of the CECOT deportation scheme. This report alleges that “Cory Booker and the Hispanic Caucus were planning on going [to El Salvador],” but are no longer. Perhaps worse, Jeffries is not giving clear marching orders to the party rank and file. One Democrat is quoted saying “As a member of a party you need to be disciplined…They say, ‘Get on a plane,' ‘Don't get on a plane'—that's what you do. Nine out ten times you do what they ask. But you can't take that approach if you're not having regular communications… You have to be clear in messaging what the plan is and you have to do that regularly if you want to keep people in line.” This is just another example of Jeffries' weak and indecisive leadership of the caucus.4. Advocates are having more luck resisting the administration's overreach in court. On Wednesday, Mohsen Mahdawi – the Columbia student faced with deportation after being lured into an ICE trap with the false promise of a citizenship test – was freed by a federal judge, POLITICO reports. After the judge ordered his release, Mahdawi told the press “I am saying it clear and loud…To President Trump and his Cabinet: I am not afraid of you.” Mahdawi's ordeal is not over, but he will remain free while his case winds its way through the courts and a previous order blocked the administration from changing venues, meaning the case will proceed in the relatively liberal Second Circuit.5. Mahmoud Khalil also scored a major legal victory this week. The Huffington Post reports that the ICE agents sent to arrest Khalil did not, contrary to their false claims in court, have an arrest warrant. Amy Greer, a lawyer for Khalil, is quoted saying “Today, we now know why [the government] never showed Mahmoud [a] warrant — they didn't have one. This is clearly yet another desperate attempt by the Trump administration to justify its unlawful arrest and detention of human rights defender Mahmoud Khalil, who is now, by the government's own tacit admission, a political prisoner of the United States.” The ACLU, also defending Khalil, has now moved for this case to be dismissed.6. Despite these victories though, the repression of anything pro-Palestine continues. At Yale, Prem Thakker reports hundreds of students protested in advance of a speech by Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel's radical National Security Minister who has previously been arrested many times for inciting racism and supporting pro-Jewish terrorism in Israel itself. Yet the university responded by “stripp[ing] the school's Students for Justice in Palestine Chapter…of its status as an official student group.” If students cannot even protest Ben-Gvir, what will the colleges regard as legitimate protest of Israel?7. In Yemen, Ryan Grim reports on CounterPoints that the Trump administration has been targeting strikes against the Houthis using data gleaned from amateur Open-Source Intelligence or OSINT accounts on X, formerly Twitter. Unsurprisingly, these are completely inaccurate and have led to disastrous strikes on civilians' homes, incorrectly identifying them as “Houthi bases.” One of these accounts is based in Houston, Texas, and another as far away as the Netherlands.8. According to a new World Bank report, Mexico reduced poverty more than any other Latin American country between 2018 and 2023. Not coincidentally, this lines up almost perfectly with the AMLO years in Mexico, which saw a massive increase in the Mexican minimum wage along with other social rights and protections. These policies are now being taken forward by AMLO's successor Claudia Sheinbaum, whose popularity has now surpassed even that of her predecessor, per Bloomberg.9. In Australia, Virginia Giuffre – the most outspoken accuser of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislane Maxwell – has passed away at the age of 41, the BBC reports. Police concluded that Ms. Giuffre died by suicide and her family released a statement indicating that the “toll of abuse... became unbearable.” Yet, her death was preceded by a bizarre chain of events. On March 31st, the BBC reported that Ms. Giuffre's car collided with a school bus, sending her into renal failure with her doctors saying she had “four days to live.” The Miami Herald also reported “At the time of her death, Giuffre had been in a contentious divorce and child custody battle with her husband, Robert.” The family's statement continued “The death is being investigated by Major Crime detectives; [but] early indication is the death is not suspicious.” One can only hope more details come to light.10. Finally, in a different kind of bizarre story, embattled incumbent New York City Mayor Eric Adams – who has already given up on the Democratic primary and was running for reelection as an independent – will now appear on two new ballot lines “EndAntiSemitism” and “Safe&Affordable,” POLITICO reports. Adams has gone to great lengths to cultivate and maintain his support in the Orthodox Jewish community in New York and is seeking to highlight his strengths and undercut former Governor Andrew Cuomo. Apparently, Adams only needs to secure 3,750 signatures from voters by May 27 for each of these ballot lines, a shockingly low threshold for the largest city in America. These ballot lines will appear without spaces, coming in just under the wire for the city's 15-character limit on ballot lines.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Join Jim and Greg for 3 Martini Lunch as they break down the surprising friction between House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries and former Speaker Nancy Pelosi, a New Jersey Democrat's eyebrow-raising success in the stock market since arriving in Congress, and a disingenuous left-wing media attack on Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman.Jim and Greg begin with new details surrounding National Security Adviser Mike Waltz's departure before thoroughly enjoying the growing divide between Hakeem Jeffries and Nancy Pelosi. Jeffries is reportedly distancing himself and no longer seeking Pelosi's counsel. This story has many delicious layers, but it clearly highlights a Democratic party that's still not sure where it's going.Next, they dig into the Washington Free Beacon's investigation of New Jersey Democratic Rep. Mikie Sherrill's improbable financial gains since joining Congress. Jim emphasizes how these stories deepen public distrust in government, while Greg notes the media's pattern of downplaying financial controversies involving Democrats, from Whitewater to campaign fundraising scandals.Finally, they tackle New York magazine's hit piece on Sen. John Fetterman, which raises questions about his health and personal life. Jim points out that these same outlets once claimed Fetterman was fit to serve shortly after suffering a major stroke and argues that the real reason for the shift is Fetterman's willingness to buck his party on a tiny number of issues.Please visit our great sponsors:It's free, online, and easy to start—no strings attached.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, Federal District Judges lack the authority to mandate the return of deported individuals to the United States. This power is beyond their jurisdiction, and there is no desire to allow illegal criminals back into the country. The demands of these radical judges are considered preposterous and out of line.  Additionally, the left considers President Bukele to be a dictator. Bukele has actually improved his country. Dictators typically damage countries for their own benefit, rather than improving them. Meanwhile, the media continues to harass President Trump with trivial questions about whether he will continue to "export" illegal immigrants. The focus should be on Iran, which poses a significant threat. Trump is committed to preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons. Also, it is concerning that the left remains fixated on criticizing the president's deportation policies instead of addressing the threat posed by Iran. Lastly, Rep Hakeem Jeffries is criticized for supporting what is perceived as radical nonsense from the left. He attacked Pete Hegseth claiming that he is not fit for this role, but he is and has proven he can handle the job. Hegseth is good and he deserves all the credit he can get. Jeffries and Bernie Sanders despise Hegseth because they are pushing their agenda. Sanders argues that our generation should fight for economic justice, but it would be more beneficial to strive for economic freedom. He does not believe in the concept of a nuclear family, nor does he believe in resolve our foreign issues. He thinks we are running an oligarchy, which is preposterous.

US House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries says the Defence Secretary should be fired over texting war plans in a group chat. Atlantic editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg was accidentally added to a Signal group chat where Pete Hegseth posted plans for attacks in Yemen - two hours beforehand. Jeffries says that threatened national security, and likely violated the law. US correspondent Dan Mitchinson says President Trump has attempted to downplay the incident.

On WSJ's Take On the Week, co-host Telis Demos and guest co-host Miriam Gottfried dive into a smorgasbord of forthcoming macroeconomic data that will illustrate how the economy is faring since President Trump's inauguration. Then, Telis shares what investment bank Jeffries's forthcoming fiscal-quarter report could tell us about the state of mergers and acquisitions on Wall Street. And it's baseball season, folks! The co-hosts talk about the latest deal between the San Francisco Giants and private-equity firm Sixth Street. Later on the show, Telis and Miriam discuss whether middle-market businesses, which include a huge swath of the American workforce, are holding strong as the threat of tariffs continues and chatter about economic uncertainty intensifies with Michael Smith. He's the co-head of credit at Ares Management, an alternative investment manager that lends to more than 500 midmarket companies. This is WSJ's Take On the Week where co-hosts Gunjan Banerji, lead writer for Live Markets, and Telis Demos, Heard on the Street's banking and money columnist, cut through the noise and dive into markets, the economy and finance—the big trades, key players and business news ahead.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 107: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: He has to go. And Minority Whip Katherine Clark. And Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar. And for that matter, Gavin Newsom has to go. Because after these standard-issue moderate Democrats vanished on election night they have suddenly reappeared 125 days later to address the REAL issue: Democratic House members who actually DID something to protest Trump - even just something symbolic like Al Green did, or those who supported him did. Jeffries and the others called them to a "come to Jesus" meeting to warn them never to ignore his "Dear Colleague" letter again, that the way to stand up to Trump lighting the county and the world on fire is to hold up mincing little pickle ball paddles with mild words on them and especially to coordinate outfits while not clapping. Out. Jeffries, Clark, Aguilar. And anybody else who doesn't realize that the last people capable of piercing Trump's bubble are Democrats at his speeches to Congress, and the media which has failed at the task even more than the Dems have. We need civil disobedience and instead Jeffries is warning Democrats, and 10 Democrats are joining the fascists, in punishing Democrats. And Newsom? His comments about trans athletes are bad enough. That he did them during a podcast with Charlie Kirk, arranged by Newsom's ex-wife Kim Guilfoyle, is far worse. I mean Newsom's judgment was already in doubt (he married Kim Guilfoyle FFS), but this is insanity. The nation is ablaze and the Dems are sending strongly worded notes. The media continues to collapse.It believed Trump's lies about pressuring Russia while he was in fact increasing his demands of Ukraine to include Zelensky resigning. And when Trump told a reporter he couldn't ask a certain question the White House Correspondents Association continued its policy of not commenting. And golly why did Trump think he could publicly threaten Nicolle Wallace and Rachel Maddow? Well, because of Joe Scarborough, obvs. B-Block (38:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Stephen A. Smith is not running for president, but keep asking him. Happily he IS showing he doesn't understand the first thing about any of this. His newest political crush? Candace Owens. Meanwhile Musk doesn't understand sports or America. And the Prime Minister of New Zealand fired a diplomat for reminding Britain that Trump is simply doing now what they did to Czechoslovakia in 1938. C-Block (49:20) THURBER SPECIAL: Thurber House in Columbus, Ohio, needs about $200,000 to keep going. The least we can do is raise consciousness. So for the first time since the election here is not just one but two Thurber stories: my favorite ("A Box To Hide In") and my late father's ("I Went To Sullivant."

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Dr. Keon West, visiting professor of political science at the London School of Economics, to discuss his recent book The Science of Racism: Everything You Need To Know But Probably Don't-Yet. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the Canadian prime ministership, the GOP's impending government shutdown, Trump's attack on Columbia University, Columbia University's wilful aiding of Trump's disappearing of a student activist, Israel's cutting of electricity o Gaza, Canadian tariffs, Trump's egg problem, Trump's recession problem, the Trump administration's legal woes, DOGE's unsurprising attack on Child Support, and the continuing spread of measles, also highlighting the Trump Administration's attempts to preemptively defend the recession and economic chaos they are about to reign on the US (and the world). Dr. Keon West then joins, diving right into his data-driven approach to highlighting the existence of racism, and how we can (and have) run experiments to test for differential treatment on the grounds of race (and nothing but race), highlighting various experiments displaying blantant racial descrimination in hiring practices, pre-elementary child education, and the medical industry, as he, Sam, and Emma walk through the minimal role the race of the descriminator plays in these situations, and why, despite mainstream narratives, many of the biases being displayed are concious and active. After expanding the conversation to include the extensive data behind the racial descrimination in contemporary American policing, and unpacking the lie of the “Black on Black crime” narrative, Dr. West steps back to tackle the ebb and flow of racial descrimination over time, with the last four hundred years seeing a drastic evolution in racial biases, tracing periods of particularly extreme racism to both economic straing and the platforming and normalization of this bigotry by sociopolitical leaders. Dr. Keon West, Sam, and Emma also discuss the importance of centering on society's overwhelming discomfort with racism (even when exercising it), what it means to do something about racism, and what to make of the fraudulant attacks on the admittedly problematic policy of DEI, before wrapping up by highlighting the role of clear data analysis – rather than vague appeals to authority – in helping push people away from bigotry. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch the Right-wing media apparatus explain exactly why skyrocketing egg prices aren't Trump's fault – unfortunately contradicting much of their coverage over the last few years – also tackling Trump's attack on the law firms attempting to challenge him, and the GOP's ongoing push to pass a continuing resolution that would allow them to make cuts to the budget without negotiation. They also parse through Democratic leadership's ongoing struggle to act like an opposition party, contrasting the likes of Schumer and Jeffries with Bernie's astoundingly successful tour campaigning against the Trump Administration, before highlighting the Trump Adminstration's disappearing of a permanent US resident (with some help from Columbia University) and Gov Newsome's recent bigoted-bridge-building session with Charlie Kirk, with some help from Emma's apperance on MSNBC over this weekend. After briefly fact-checking Jimmy Dore's recent climate-denial musings, they wrap up by touching on the potential hacking of Twitter by activist group Anonymous, plus, your IMs!

Tangerine Tiberius is getting the galloping tariff jitters and everyone knows it. Doug Ford and Claudia Sheinbaum has his number and they're calling it. That's why he's attacking cable news presenters . . . and flailing around more than half out of his mind. Meanwhile, Democrats never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity. Jeffries calls the rebellious Dems into his office for a talking to. Hypocrite MAGATS drive a censure of Rep. Al Green and some mugwump Dems go along with them. Measles crosses from Texas into New Mexico and claims a second life while Whalehead Deadbear Brainworm tells people to take Vitamin A. 

What's the best way for Democrats to show their opposition to President Trump's address to a joint session of Congress tonight? Well, for House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, the answer is clear: resist the temptation to stage dramatic disruptions. At a closed-door meeting, he reminded members that while the pressure from their base to protest is high, going overboard could backfire. Instead, he urged colleagues to keep their focus on the American people and maintain unity. While some Democrats are planning symbolic acts like wearing protest shirts and holding signs, others, like Reps. Maxine Waters and Jasmine Crockett, have opted out altogether, choosing to skip the address. Jeffries' message is that their opposition should not be a spectacle, but a statement, a chance to show that Trump's agenda isn't going unchallenged. Within the Democratic Party, the debate continues over how best to express their resistance. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

1171 The '90s Cover-Ups: Clinton's Body Count, OKC Bombing Lies, and the JFK Jr. ‘Assassination'—What They Don't Want You to Know   Forget everything you thought you knew about the 1990s. Beneath the surface of mainstream history lies a tangled web of cover-ups, corruption, and unanswered questions. Author and researcher Donald Jeffries joins me to expose the real stories they don't want you to know—stories that suggest America's ruling elite will do anything to maintain their grip on power.Was the Oklahoma City bombing really the work of a lone wolf, or was it a deep-state operation designed to justify a crackdown on anti-government groups? How did so many people connected to Bill and Hillary Clinton end up dead under mysterious circumstances—including White House insider Vince Foster? And what really happened to John F. Kennedy Jr.—was his plane crash an accident, or was he taken out before he could challenge the political establishment? Richard welcomes, author/researcher Donald Jeffries, who lays out the case for a decades-long campaign of deception. If you think you know the history of the 1990s, think again.   GUEST: Don Jeffries is a veteran researcher, historian, and best-selling author exposing the hidden truths behind America's most controversial events. His books, including Hidden History, Crimes and Cover-Ups in American Politics, and American Memory Hole, delve into government corruption, political assassinations, and media manipulation. A fearless investigator, Jeffries challenges the official narratives on everything from the JFK assassination to modern-day deep-state operations.  His work has been featured on major alternative media platforms, and his Substack, I Protest, continues to unveil the dark underbelly of power.   WEBSITE: https://donaldjeffries.substack.com   BOOKS: American Memory Hole: How the Court Historians Promote Disinformation Pipe the Bimbo in Red: Dean Andrews, Jim Garrison and the Conspiracy to Kill JFK From Strawberry Fields to Abbey Road: A Billy Shears Story Masking the Truth: How Covid-19 Destroyed Civil Liberties and Shut Down the World On Borrowed Fame: Money, Mysteries, and Corruption in the Entertainment World   Crimes and Cover-ups in American Politics: 1776-1963 Bullyocracy: How the Social Hierarchy Enables Bullies to Rule Schools, Work Places, and Society at Large Survival of the Richest: How the Corruption of the Marketplace and the Disparity of Wealth Created the Greatest Conspiracy of All Hidden History: An Exposé of Modern Crimes, Conspiracies, and Cover-Ups in American Politics Learn more about your ad choices.

Matt Crawford speaks with author Donald Jeffries about his book, I Could Have Been One.I Could Have Been One provides a look into the world Donald Wm. Jeffries was born into, raised, and grew up in through historical and political events of his life. We examine the world starting in the 1940s through our modern day and see how life was and what has changed. The history in which Jeffries has lived through has had a remarkable impact on his life and worldview, and we see this develop and change throughout the course of his journey. As the future comes speeding into view, with his lessons from the past we can start asking ourselves how we got here, what will become of our children's generation and their children's, and where are we headed? By beginning this discussion, we can have a better understanding of our current situation and face our realities, hopefully making better, brighter decisions for the future.

In 2021, a $20 million sexual assault lawsuit was filed against both Trey Songz and Sean "Diddy" Combs by Jauhara Jeffries, who alleged that Songz assaulted her at a nightclub in 2018. While the primary focus was on Songz's actions, the inclusion of Diddy as a defendant hinted at a deeper, more systemic issue within the music industry. Jeffries claimed that Diddy, as the event's host, bore responsibility for the environment that enabled such misconduct. This case, though centered on Songz, subtly illuminated the pervasive culture of exploitation and the potential complicity of industry moguls like Diddy.At the time, the allegations against Diddy in the Jeffries lawsuit may have been overshadowed by the more direct accusations against Songz. However, in retrospect, this case foreshadowed the extensive legal troubles Diddy now faces. The lawsuit highlighted his alleged role in fostering environments where abuse could occur, a theme that has become central in the numerous charges currently levied against him, including sex trafficking and racketeering. The Jeffries case served as an early indicator of the allegations that Diddy's influence and parties were not just passive settings but active facilitators of misconduct, a narrative that has only gained traction with his subsequent legal challenges.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:202010265.pdf

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D NY-8th, Brooklyn) talks about his 10-point plan and explains what he is calling for Democrats to do in response to President Trump's moves on federal funding and more.

Democrats are pondering how to posture themselves against President Trump's agenda and the GOP-controlled Congress.On Today's Show:House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D NY-8th, Brooklyn) explains what he is calling for Democrats to do in response to President Trump's moves on federal funding, tariffs and more.  

Two-fisted drinker of breakfast beverages, David Waldman tells it like it is this Tuesday.  WAR! Trumpskrieg is in full force, finding the calvaries of MGs Schumer and Jeffries still tamping down their muskets. Of course, reporters aren't used to the news being so damn “new” either. MAGA forces have already scored massive, albeit imaginary victories in Colombia, California and assorted elementary schools. If Canada and Mexico get tired of Trump, they can just hit the BRICS. The White House paused all federal grants and loan disbursement, which they can't do, and just did. This has caused immediate chaos and although they promise it will be temporary chaos, it will be long-term chaos which they hope to turn into permanent chaos. There is also a Gop proposal to make college scholarships taxable income as most of us will be picking tomatoes within a generation anyhow. Trump hopes to skip out of the World Health Organization without paying the bill. When Trump pardoned repeat offending wife beating, police assaulting, gun running pedophiles he never could have guessed they would return to a life of crime. One thing's for certain, Matthew W. Huttle would have been alive today if it wasn't for Donald Trump.

Don Jeffries's newest book arose from a personal tragedy when his brother was murdered by doctors and nurses that implemented the psychotic COVID-19 protocols on patients, all but guaranteeing that the death toll would spike as a result. These so-called COVID deaths provided the government and the mainstream media with the statistics they demanded in order to designate this a “pandemic” and start the process of destroying the world. In “Masking the Truth: How COVID-19 Destroyed Civil Liberties and Shut Down the World”, Jeffries takes a deep dive into the ample evidence of advanced preknowledge of the impending pandemic from holding Event 201 in October of 2019 to patents on vaccines that precede the introduction of the alleged virus to Operation Warp Speed. Many people are slowly starting to ask the questions that they should have been asking when the whole show began in early 2020, and Donald Jeffries has the answers, along with the backing evidence, that the public is looking for. We know that they got away with mass murder, and Jeffries shows exactly how they pulled off the greatest criminal fraud in the history of the planet.

Dan Nathan and Guy Adami discuss the competing interests and strategic moves of various tech CEOs, including TikTok's CEO and Sam Altman of OpenAI, as they cozy up to the government and Musk's proximity to President Trump. They explore the implications for major companies like Apple, Google, Amazon, and Tesla, touching on regulatory issues, market dynamics, and earnings reports. The conversation highlights the impact of TikTok's potential ban on Apple sales, the recent downgrade of Apple by Jeffries, and the performance of Tesla amidst a price war and weak demand in China. The duo also examines Netflix's market position ahead of its earnings report and the overall influence of major tech companies on stock movements. — View our show notes here Learn more about Current: current.com Listen to 'Strategic Alternatives': https://www.rbccm.com/en/gib/ma-inflection-points Email us at contact@riskreversal.com with any feedback, suggestions, or questions for us to answer on the pod and follow us @OkayComputerPod.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, WMAL's Larry O'Connor fills in for Mark.  Today was the first day of the 119th Congress and Mike Johnson was reelected as Speaker of the House after a dramatic first-round vote.  3 Republicans didn't vote for Johnson, and it seemed like the vote would go to a second round. But then President Donald Trump got involved and Johnson eventually won it on the first ballot, which most predictions said wouldn't happen. Also, Rep Hakeem Jeffries lost the Speaker race for the 20th time in just 2 years. Jeffries spoke before he handed the gavel to Johnson, and it sounded like he was about to introduce President Trump at a rally. He complained that costs were too high and that America is too expensive. Jeffries is right – but who was President and Vice President the last four years? Jeffries said he wants to help fix the problems in America, but he has to work with Trump if he wants to get things done. Why would the Democrats want to work with someone they called Hitler and a fascist? Finally, Jake Tapper isn't a serious newsman, he's no better than a propagandist. One of his reports on the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal is the center of a $1 Billion defamation lawsuit against CNN and Tapper. That goes to trial next week. Learn more about your ad choices.
