CannCon and Chris Paul open this Friday edition with Trump's latest Truth Social post blasting the Epstein “hoax” and pivot into Biden's crumbling legitimacy as new memos reveal Kamala Harris often approved pardons in his place, with auto-pen signatures raising constitutional questions. They dissect the Democrats' color revolution playbook, Trump's strategy to go scorched earth on both parties after the midterms, and the establishment's unraveling. The episode then shifts to Trump's kinetic strike on Venezuelan traffickers, exploring its implications for cartels, sovereignty, and the global regime's drug networks. From there, the hosts cover Trump's order to rename the Department of Defense back to the Department of War, RFK Jr.'s blistering Senate testimony exposing CDC failures and chronic disease rates, and Bernie Sanders' call for campaign finance reform. Other highlights include John Bolton's FBI raid, CEFC-Hunter Biden ties, and the 11th Circuit blocking the shutdown of “Alligator Alcatraz.” With sharp analysis, humor, and a barrage of breaking stories, this episode captures the chaos and turning tides of the week.
Jon Herold opens this Friday edition with a special guest: Annie from Willow Wind Farm, the woman behind Soft Disclosure's natural body care products. Annie shares her journey from a Colorado natural foods career to running an 85-acre alpaca and sheep ranch, where she now handcrafts lotions, deodorants, and tallow bars with locally sourced ingredients. She talks about sustainability, the challenges of creating sensitive recipes like deodorant, and why using pure, farm-based inputs matters. Jon and Annie reflect on her role as both a breeder and a maker, her deep ties to the Badlands community, and the joy she finds in creating products that people love. After the interview, Jon pivots to the headlines, Trump's reposts of August stories on Truth Social, John Bolton's unsealed search warrant, ICE's massive hiring spree, Nadler's retirement, and Biden's controversial use of an auto-pen for pardons. With a mix of personal storytelling, sponsor shoutouts, and sharp political analysis, this episode blends community spotlight with cutting-edge news.

NewsBusters Associate Editor Nick Fondacaro and Managing Editor Curtis Houck speak with 2022 MRC Bulldog Award winner Drew Holden to unspool some of his famous X threads calling out the liberal media's bias. Living in the D.C. metro area, they take a deep dive in Holden's findings regarding a dubious Washington Post poll claiming D.C. residents thought crime wasn't an issue. They also examine the media's knee-jerk reaction to the FBI's raid of John Bolton's house, claiming President Trump was on his “revenge tour.”

A calculated wave of raids, executive orders, and military deployments suggests Trump is methodically dismantling opposition before launching a sweeping purge of high-profile figures. The administration's recent actions against John Bolton may be just the opening salvo in a broader campaign to expose what they claim is a decades-long infiltration of American institutions by foreign interests. ____________ VERITY METALS Convert your 401k or IRA into physical gold to protect your retirement from a volatile stock market and inflation.

Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook sues the Trump administration over her firing, calling the mortgage fraud allegations “unsubstantiated” and claiming the real issue is policy disagreements over interest rates. CDC Director Susan Monarez refuses to step down after being asked to resign, prompting the White House to fire her directly and triggering high-profile resignations across the agency. New reporting from the New York Times shows the FBI probe into John Bolton began under Biden and centers on emails tied to his 2020 memoir, complicating claims of Trumpian retribution. California Governor Gavin Newsom sues to block Trump's use of the National Guard in Los Angeles, while simultaneously expanding his own state's anti-crime operations, drawing charges of contradiction. Governor Newsom accuses President Trump of planning to deploy the National Guard to polling places as part of a scheme to block the next election ... a fevered claim made just hours before Newsom himself rolled out new state-led crime suppression operations across California.

On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, the United States is one of the most religious countries in the world. We have the freedom to practice any belief we would like, thanks to the Declaration of Independence. American society distinguishes between faith's role in personal life, community, and government, recognizing it as a moral and psychological foundation that influences behavior and promotes civility. Christianity, while the majority faith, does not seek governmental control, allowing faith and reason to coexist and enrich personal and societal development. The Democrats want the opposite, this is why they are losing more support now than ever. In addition, the probe into John Bolton escalated during the Biden administration when U.S. intelligence acquired foreign espionage data indicating he improperly handled classified information. Officials say the case had already progressed independently and reflects a broader inquiry into national security practices. The left is claiming that this investigation is just a political attack, which is rediculous and not surprising. Also, Gov. Gavin Newsom is not the best Governor this country has ever had. California used to be a great state, but the left ran it down and destroyed its economy, the safety, and the ideology of the people with left-wing garbage. Lastly, David Bozell mentions about a poll that 99% of the American people are tired of crime in big cities, especially the blue cities. Bozell also discusses the attack on the Judeo-Christian communities and how the Minneapolis shooting and many other cases are getting out of hand. Learn more about your ad choices.

POTUS: Unthreatening At Anchorage. John Bolton 1910 ALASKA
Cracker Barrel's $100 million collapse proves America is done with woke rebrands, but that's just the beginning. I dive into why this cultural backlash signals a turning point, Trump's push to crack down on flag burning and foreign agitators, and how the DOJ just landed a major blow against the Mexican cartels. We'll also look at fresh investigations into John Bolton, corrupt Washington practices, and why this season is a divine opening for believers to rise in influence. This isn't just news, it's a prophetic moment of America's comeback.
With UK-US relations in the spotlight, Catherine Bohart wants to know just what the special relationship means in 2025. With the help of Felicity Ward, Amb. John Bolton and our regular roving correspondent Sunil Patel, Catherine's asking what makes the special relationship 'special'? Are the US and the UK really exclusive? And does anyone have the number of that nice girl, the EU?Written by Catherine Bohart, with Madeleine Brettingham, Catherine Brinkworth and Priya HallProducer: Alison Vernon Smith Executive Producers: Lyndsay Fenner & Victoria Lloyd Sound Design: David Thomas Production Co-ordinator: Katie SayerA Mighty Bunny production for BBC Radio 4
In the same week Cracker Barrel retreats on its foolish decision to "rebrand" itself with a proposed logo as boring as a hospital parking lot sign (with new interior decor to match), John Yoo, freshly back from his smuggling trip to Korea, hosts this episode for the first time ever from . . . McDonald's. Did you really need to be told that? Or maybe you are asking: What took so long?Anyway, as he noshed on newly restored cheesy breakfast bagels, we walk through the serial disgraces of politicians and the media following the latest school shooting in Minnesota, along with what to make of Trump's attempted firing of Fed governor Lisa Cook (a lot more to be made of this than you think, and once again the media is not telling you); likewise Trump's flag-burning executive order really needs to be followed up with a constitutional amendment, though don't be surprised if this is yet another issue where the current Supreme Court might well reverse precedent; and finally, what do we make of the John Bolton controversy? Both more and less than you might think.

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin: First—it appears John Bolton could be in deeper legal trouble than previously known. We are learning that the probe into his alleged mishandling of classified information actually intensified under the Biden administration, when intelligence emerged suggesting unsecured emails sent by Bolton containing national security secrets ended up in the hands of an adversarial foreign spy service. Later in the show—Chinese President Xi Jinping is preparing for a massive military parade next week to commemorate the 80th anniversary of Japan's World War II surrender, with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and Russian President Vladimir Putin set to attend. We'll discuss the broader implications of this high profile gathering of the east's major authoritarian powers.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, we cover the heartbreaking Catholic school shooting in Minneapolis, a wave of swatting attacks targeting U.S. colleges, and global updates from Iran, Greenland, Vietnam, and West Africa. From domestic terror and cultural battles at home to mineral wars and Islamist violence abroad, today's brief delivers the facts shaping America's future. Minneapolis Catholic School Shooting: A 23-year-old man who identified as transgender opened fire outside a Catholic school, killing two children and injuring 17 others. In his manifesto he wrote, “I do it to please myself… I do it because I am sick.” The school's priest begged, “I ask you to — please — pray,” while Democrats like Jen Psaki shot back, “Prayer is not freaking enough.” Bryan calls Psaki's remarks “a demand of the evil and wicked” and links the shooter's instability to cross-sex hormones, THC use, and the broader dangers of experimental “gender affirming care.” Swatting Attacks Target U.S. Colleges: Universities from South Carolina to Colorado were hit by fake active-shooter calls, prompting dangerous police raids. Wired identifies the culprits as an online group called Purgatory, who brag they are “nihilistic” and do it for fun and cash. Bryan argues the crime warrants capital punishment: “You rip this stuff and these people out by the root.” Foreign Spies Captured Bolton's Emails: The New York Times confirms that a foreign intelligence service intercepted classified emails John Bolton sent to his wife and daughter from an unsecured system. Democrats call Trump's DOJ “fascist,” but Bryan insists, “Had I done what John Bolton did, I would be in prison a long time ago.” Iran's Nuclear Stockpile Neutralized: Satellite images confirm Trump's Operation Midnight Hammer left 900 pounds of enriched uranium entombed at Isfahan. The IAEA backs the finding, despite Iran threatening its director Rafael Grossi with death. Bryan says the news proves firing DIA chief Jeffrey Kruse for downplaying the strike was “a good clean-out of the Deep State.” American Operatives Stir Trouble in Greenland: The Wall Street Journal reports suspected Trump-linked contractors are recruiting Greenlanders for separatist movements, sparking tensions with Denmark. Bryan suspects, “These guys are more like Erik Prince's Blackwater than CIA professionals — sloppy, but maybe effective.” China Moves to Corner Vietnam's Tungsten Supply: Reuters reveals Chinese firms are secretly bidding for Vietnam's tungsten mines through front companies. With the U.S. sourcing a quarter of its tungsten from Vietnam, Bryan warns this could leave America “utterly dependent” on Beijing for another critical mineral. Islamist Violence in Ivory Coast Spurs U.S. Base Plans: Militants from Burkina Faso kill farmers in northern Ivory Coast, part of a growing jihadist campaign across West Africa. The U.S. considers building a drone and Special Forces base in Benin, Ghana, or Ivory Coast to counter both Islamists and China's expanding footprint in African resources and fishing. "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32 Keywords: Minneapolis Catholic school shooting, transgender shooter manifesto, Jen Psaki prayer remarks, THC psychosis gender dysphoria, U.S. college swatting attacks Purgatory group, John Bolton unsecured emails espionage, Operation Midnight Hammer uranium entombed, Jeffrey Kruse DIA firing, Trump Greenland operatives separatist movement, China Vietnam tungsten mine, U.S. dependence critical minerals, Ivory Coast Islamist attack Burkina Faso, U.S. West Africa drone base, China Africa bauxite cocoa fishing

RFK Jr changes the Covid mRNA gene scrambling protocol and makes it more difficult for healthy children to get unnecessary Covid boosters. The head of CDC may (or may not be) axed from her job as three top CDC officials resign over RFK's "weaponization" of medicine. Let's take a closer look at these people and say GOOD RIDDANCE. That raid of John Bolton's home just got juicier as the FBI reveals its intercepts of foreign communications revealed Bolton's private email server was hacked and America's classified secrets were likely compromised. Don't miss the end where we prove yet again that white college educated liberal women are a scourge to society.
Tommy & Ben dig into the FBI's raid on John Bolton and how Pete Hegseth's firing of the head of the Defense Intelligence Agency fits into Trump's ongoing ideological purges of the US intelligence community. They discuss Israel's criminal “double tap” strike on Gaza's Nasser Hospital, The Free Press's sanctimonious reaction to criticism of their reporting about starvation in Gaza, Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu's constant moving of the goalposts on a ceasefire deal, why Trump's meeting South Korean president Lee Jae Myung was humiliating for America, Trump's lies and delusions about being a peacemaker, the latest on Iran negotiations, why Australia expelled Iranian diplomats, and Putin's answer to Eurovision. Then, Tommy speaks with Franklin Nossiter, Sahel Analyst at the International Crisis Group, about the complex dynamics in a region where military juntas, jihadists, and foreign powers are all jostling for influence.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

This week, Scott sat down with old and new Lawfare colleagues—Benjamin Wittes, Renée DiResta, and Michael Feinberg—to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including:“An Old Fashioned Anti Raid.” Former Trump National Security Advisor (turned Trump critic) John Bolton got a rude awakening this past week when the FBI conducted a raid at his home, reportedly on the grounds that he is believed to have retained classified information from his time in office. It's the latest in a recent spate of (well publicized) investigations targeting Trump's critics and enemies, including a series of mortgage fraud investigations into Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook (who Trump now purports to have removed for cause), New York Attorney General Letitia James (which coincided with a photo shoot that Justice Department official Ed Martin did, uninvited, outside of her home), and Senator Adam Schiff. How big a threat are such investigations to Trump's enemies? And what will their long-term implications be for the Justice Department?“Uncleared and Present Danger.” Last week, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard pulled security clearances from 37 current and former intelligence officials on the purported grounds that they had “abused the public trust by politicizing and manipulating intelligence, leaking classified intelligence without authorization, and/or committing intentional egregious violations of tradecraft standards.” Those affected range from current senior intelligence officials to former officials who have been out of government for years to current senior congressional staffers. What are the consequences likely to be of Gabbard's actions and what does it show about the Trump administration's approach to national security agencies?“Blue Sky Thinking.” In response to a state law mandating age verification for anyone seeking to use social media platforms, Bluesky has opted to shut down its services in the state of Mississippi. What does this sort of response tell us about the trajectory of state and federal regulations, and what the impact might ultimately be on the internet?In Object Lessons, Ben is letting The Algorithm light his way—literally—with solar-powered sunflower lights. Renée, not to be outdone, also bows before our algorithmic overlord and wants you to stream Red Bull's YouTube dance battles. Scott is using his green thumb to plant the seeds of some versatile green fruit. And Michael is going less horticultural, more horrifying, by planting horror movie props around his house—because nothing says “I love you” like a severed head in the fridge.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

Rod Martin breaks down the latest moves by the DOJ and FBI involving former National Security Adviser John Bolton, and what it means for the Trump administration and ongoing investigations. More at https://www.rodmartin.org/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The FBI recently raided John Bolton's home over alleged mishandling of classified information, which is a bit ironic since Bolton is an unrepentant war-hawk who once criticized Donald Trump for mishandling classified documents himself. According to reports, CIA Director John Ratcliffe provided the intelligence foundation that led FBI Director Kash Patel to secure the search warrant, intensifying accusations of political weaponization. Jimmy and co-host Stef Zamorano highlight suspicions of hypocrisy, precedent-setting prosecutions, and the rotational retribution in D.C., arguing that such raids typically reflect a system that punishes dissenters across the political spectrum. Nevertheless, Jimmy admits enjoying the Bolton's legal come-uppance but remains critical of Trump's own militaristic path and the broader erosion of justice in the U.S. under his administration. Plus segments on Israel's recent depraved and criminal “double-tap” attack on Nasser Hospital in Gaza, Trump's abandonment of free speech in signing an executive order making burning the American flag a crime and a restaurant in Washington state fined $1 million for allowing indoor dining during the pandemic. Also featuring Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Andrew Cuomo and Zohran Mamdani!

This week, Scott sat down with old and new Lawfare colleagues—Benjamin Wittes, Renée DiResta, and Michael Feinberg—to talk through the week's big national security news stories, including:“An Old Fashioned Anti Raid.” Former Trump National Security Advisor (turned Trump critic) John Bolton got a rude awakening this past week when the FBI conducted a raid at his home, reportedly on the grounds that he is believed to have retained classified information from his time in office. It's the latest in a recent spate of (well publicized) investigations targeting Trump's critics and enemies, including a series of mortgage fraud investigations into Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook (who Trump now purports to have removed for cause), New York Attorney General Letitia James (which coincided with a photo shoot that Justice Department official Ed Martin did, uninvited, outside of her home), and Senator Adam Schiff. How big a threat are such investigations to Trump's enemies? And what will their long-term implications be for the Justice Department?“Uncleared and Present Danger.” Last week, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard pulled security clearances from 37 current and former intelligence officials on the purported grounds that they had “abused the public trust by politicizing and manipulating intelligence, leaking classified intelligence without authorization, and/or committing intentional egregious violations of tradecraft standards.” Those affected range from current senior intelligence officials to former officials who have been out of government for years to current senior congressional staffers. What are the consequences likely to be of Gabbard's actions and what does it show about the Trump administration's approach to national security agencies?“Blue Sky Thinking.” In response to a state law mandating age verification for anyone seeking to use social media platforms, Bluesky has opted to shut down its services in the state of Mississippi. What does this sort of response tell us about the trajectory of state and federal regulations, and what the impact might ultimately be on the internet?In Object Lessons, Ben is letting The Algorithm light his way—literally—with solar-powered sunflower lights. Renée, not to be outdone, also bows before our algorithmic overlord and wants you to stream Red Bull's YouTube dance battles. Scott is using his green thumb to plant the seeds of some versatile green fruit. And Michael is going less horticultural, more horrifying, by planting horror movie props around his house—because nothing says “I love you” like a severed head in the fridge.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

John Bolton isn't exactly beloved by the right or the left. But sending the FBI to raid his house fits a pattern: Either tell the president what he wants to hear, or face the consequences.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.politix.fmThis week, a close look at two troubling authoritarian provocations from the Trump administration: Friday's dawn FBI raid of John Bolton's house in Maryland, and Monday's purported firing of Lisa Cook, a member of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors. We discuss:* How Matt managed to leave his microphone in Maine.* What Trump seemingly hopes to accomplish by making an example out of Bolton.* Whether opposing the retributive prosecution of a crank like Bolton represents a good test of how to build a unified front against fascism.* Also, what the fuck is going on with Trump's bruises and cankles?Then, do the Bolton and Cook abuses provide the broad left any openings to peel off Republicans who might see Trump's consolidation of power as a threat to their own ambitions. If he'll go after a stalwart Republican like Bolton, why wouldn't he go after certain Republican presidential candidates? If overlook Trump's harassment of Cook, what leg will they have to stand on when 2029 Democrats purge Republicans from government, mine their federal records, and have a big fat precedent to point to.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:* Matt on the economic downside of personalist autocracies like the one Trump is building.* Brian makes the case against liberal rectitude politics, which make it so hard for the whole, unified party to stand up for itself. * HEADLINE: Trump, 79, Smears Right Hand in Makeup Amid Cankles Cover-Up.
Trump's FBI raids the home of John Bolton—the former first-term Trump advisor turned vocal critic—as the President escalates his use of state power to target and threaten anyone who's criticized him, most recently Chris Christie, Wes Moore, ABC News, and NBC News. Jon, Lovett, and Tommy react to those threats and all of this week's fascist horrors, including the arming of the National Guard in D.C., the administration's pending deployment of troops to Chicago, and ICE's plan to deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia, the Maryland man they wrongly sent to CECOT, to Uganda unless he pleads guilty to a set of dubious charges brought against him in Tennessee. Then, economic writer James Surowiecki sits down with Lovett to talk about the Trump administration's unprecedented acquisition of Intel stock—and what it signals to other major companies.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Trump and his people have used the summer months to up the despot game—sending armed troops into the streets, taking over the police in D.C., and promising to export the same tactics to even more blue cities. And the attempted deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda shows the lengths the administration will go for not submitting to its coercion. At the same time, Vance sounds downright Orwellian on the John Bolton matter, while the White House eyes other major corporations to extort. Plus, Wes Moore punches back, the injustice of the trans military ban, and the emerging signs of a broad Democratic coalition.
