On today's special REAL AF LIVE from Summer Smash '26, Andy and DJ break down the Senate rejecting another GOP push to revive the SAVE America Act, John Bolton pleading guilty to mishandling classified documents charges, and close the show with a live Q&AF session with the crowd.
Joyce Vance hosts #SistersInLaw to discuss John Bolton's plea deal, compare it to the Petraeus case, explore its Biden-era origins, and contrast Bolton's cooperation with Trump's obstruction. Then, the #Sisters dissect Trump's controversial cabinet picks, particularly the unqualified loyalist Bill Pulte as acting DNI and Todd Blanche for AG, despite his handling of the Epstein files, the slush fund, and other red flags in his confirmation. They also analyze the SCOTUS shadow docket reversal in Alabama's Milligan case and the Calais ruling, warning of an open season on racial and political gerrymandering nationwide.Remember to send in audio questions to SistersInLaw@politicon.com for the #Sisters to answer on their new companion podcast, SistersInLaw Sidebar!

Jonah Goldberg, like Plato's cave-man philosopher, has briefly returned from the land of book writing and enlightenment to ruminate before us poor, shadow-watching mortals. Jonah considers the origin of the term slush fund, waxes poetic on military etymology, and reflects on the Lewinsky scandal, all before getting stuck in on feminism, John Bolton, the republican spirit, Graham Platner, party self-sabotage, and the cult of authenticity.

Senate Republicans worked through the night to pass President Trump's $72 billion immigration enforcement bill, but voted not to block the president's anti-weaponization fund.A handful of Republicans are breaking with President Trump over the war in Iran, his anti-weaponization fund, and his pick to lead national intelligence, raising the question of whether his grip on the party is starting to slip after a decade of dominance. And former national security adviser turned Trump critic John Bolton has agreed to plead guilty to a single count of mishandling classified information, a case that prosecutors and intelligence officials say has real legal merit unlike other cases against the president's perceived enemies.Want more analysis of the most important news of the day, plus a little fun?

Artificial Intelligence isn't just clogging up your Instagram feed with cartoon cat romance-revenge videos or helping your cousin pass AP European History class. Artificial Intelligence is on the battlefield.

In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan tracks a week's worth of threats coming to a head, from confirmed screwworm cases in Texas drawing fire at the federal response, to John Bolton pleading guilty to mishandling CIA crown jewels that Iran then stole off his personal devices. Texas officials are publicly calling out Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins for a slow and incomplete response to the screwworm outbreak, even as cattle futures swing wildly and ranchers look to ivermectin as their best near-term option. Meanwhile, Bryan lays out the Bolton plea deal, the messages Bolton sent to his wife proving he knew exactly what he was doing, and why the compromise of Top Secret CIA covert action programs puts real lives at risk. Plus, Bryan covers two corrupt Mexican governors now in the crosshairs of the Trump DOJ, Graham Platner's Nazi tattoo story getting worse by the day, Trump's $700M coal investment and a pointed rebuttal of the "clean energy" narrative, the restoration of DC's National Mall reflecting pool, and two medical stories worth your attention: a spinal stimulation breakthrough for stroke recovery and new research confirming the weather-migraine connection.

Today's Headlines: The fate of the Traitor Fund remains unknown — Blanche said they're dropping it but won't put it in writing, Trump said he loves it but "ask the lawyers," Senate Democrats tried to force a vote to block it and Republicans voted against the block anyway, and January 6th defendants are already filing claims — while what is confirmed is that Trump is still getting permanent IRS audit immunity for himself and his family regardless. Meanwhile, Trump is officially nominating Todd Blanche — his personal criminal defense attorney — as permanent Attorney General, while Bill Pulte, the family friend with no intelligence experience named as acting DNI, is already being phased out with Trump hinting he'll be tasked with investigating whether past elections were rigged. In slightly more satisfying news, Trump's name is officially coming off the Kennedy Center less than a week after a judge ordered it — off the facade, out of email signatures, and off employee ID cards. In other news, John Bolton pleaded guilty to illegally retaining classified national security documents after Iranian hackers breached his email, agreeing to pay over $2 million with up to 60 months in prison — less revenge prosecution, more bad judgment. And now that Congress is back to work, the House passed a measure cutting food aid for over 5 million pregnant women and children, great. In war updates, Israel and Lebanon announced a ceasefire that Hezbollah immediately rejected because it would ban their operatives from parts of their own country with no maps or implementation details. And finally, a flesh-eating New World screwworm — not seen in US livestock for 60 years — was found in a Texas calf, with quarantines now in place, which is bad timing for beef prices already at record highs.

John Bolton, Vincent Munster, Claude Kwe, Karmelo Anthony, and the war powers resolution headline today's A.M. Update. Trump blasts House Republicans for passing a war powers resolution mid-Iran negotiations, but Aaron floats a take he cannot shake: the vote might actually be Trump's exit ramp out of a deal that was never going to happen. John Bolton pleads guilty to one count of retaining national security information and agrees to $2.25 million in restitution, and Aaron questions whether that counts as the scalp DOJ's critics were hoping for. Two NIH researchers, Vincent Munster and Claude Kwe, are charged with smuggling 113 vials of monkeypox through Detroit Metro Airport after lying to customs agents, and Brooke Rollins confirms a new world screwworm detection in Zavala County, Texas. YouTuber Jesse Ridgeway announces he and his wife terminated their pregnancy after a Down syndrome diagnosis, and Aaron does not pull punches. The AOTMA segment covers a listener's plans to create a crisis Bible for the suicidal, nuclear family month spreading to Tennessee, Alabama, and Arkansas, the two-tiered justice system, SNAP cards being used at fast food restaurants in Michigan, and a candid update on the show's distribution struggles.
Trump's got two bag men now — one at Treasury, one at Justice. Scott Bessent moves the money, Todd Blanche hunts the witnesses. This is what a family business looks like. In this episode:
Illegals tricked radical leftists and democrats into rioting over a fake hunger strike at the Delany Hall ICE facility in New Jersey. John Bolton reaches a plea deal over mishandling classified national security information and intends to plead guilty, which means he could finally get locked up. President Trump announced that he will nominate acting Attorney General Todd Blanche to permanently lead the DOJ full-time. Marco Rubio trolled Democrats during a hearing on Capitol Hill yesterday, and President Trump hilariously destroyed CNN reporter Kaitlan Collins.

For perspective on the latest developments in the conflict with Iran, Amna Nawaz spoke with John Bolton. He served as national security advisor in President Trump's first term. During his tenure, the U.S. announced it was withdrawing from the JCPOA, the nuclear agreement with Iran that had been negotiated during the Obama administration.

Republican senators Ted Cruz, Lindsey Graham, and Roger Wicker initially called the deal a disaster and a surrender before reversing course. Former National Security Advisor John Bolton, Mike Pompeo, and analysts from The Atlantic and The Bulwark all weighed in on what amounts to the worst U.S. strategic defeat since the Iraq War. Robert Kagan's piece in The Atlantic argued that Trump's endgame was surrender, and that Iran is using the ceasefire to lock in Strait of Hormuz control by forcing nations including South Korea, Turkey, and India to normalize diplomatic and economic ties with Tehran. Russia and China benefit most. Iran emerges stronger militarily and economically. Hamas and Hezbollah get refunded. Israel is left isolated. And the United States loses 20% of the world's energy supply to Iranian control.

Las políticas actuales de Estados Unidos o, más bien, de su presidente, Donald Trump hacia América Latina suelen interpretarse a la luz de la llamada Doctrina Monroe, esa idea de que Latinoamérica constituye una zona de influencia prioritaria para Washington, resumida a menudo de forma crítica como su “patio trasero”. Hay varios ejemplos recientes: la captura del presidente venezolano Nicolás Maduro con el objetivo de juzgarlo en Nueva York o las estrategias de aislamiento y sanciones económicas que asfixian cada vez más a Cuba. Analizamos estas decisiones y sus objetivos con alguien que conoce de cerca la Administración estadounidense. Conversamos con John Bolton, exasesor de Seguridad Nacional de Donald Trump y hoy una de las voces más críticas con el expresidente.Además, en nuestro repaso a la actualidad abordamos las nuevas tensiones entre Cuba y Estados Unidos a raíz de unos supuestos drones militares; hablamos de la extradición desde Venezuela de Alex Saab para ser juzgado por la justicia estadounidense o de las protestas en Bolivia. Además, analizaremos los retos de ejercer como maestro en América Latina en la actualidad con nuestra colaboradora externa, la periodista Kirely Macedo, desde México.Escuchar audio
John Bolton, der einst unter Donald Trump Nationaler Sicherheitsberater im Weißen Haus war, hat sich zu einem seiner schärfsten Kritiker entwickelt. Im exklusiven Interview zieht er eine düstere Bilanz der aktuellen US-Außenpolitik und analysiert die unberechenbare Strategie des Präsidenten. Bolton spart nicht mit deutlichen Worten in Richtung Washington. Er diente unter Reagan sowie beiden Bushs und versuchte fast zwei Jahre lang als Trumps nationaler Sicherheitsberater, dessen impulsive Sprünge in eine geordnete Strategie zu verwandeln. Ein, wie er heute selbst sagt, völlig aussichtsloses Unterfangen. Im Gespräch rechnet Bolton mit Trumps aktuellem Kurs im Iran-Konflikt ab. Während der Präsident glaubt, an der Straße von Hormuz einen neuen Deal mit Teheran verhandeln zu können, nennt Bolton dies eine Zeit- und Ressourcenverschwendung. Er warnt eindringlich: In dieser Krise gibt es keinen diplomatischen Mittelweg mehr. Das Berlin Playbook als Podcast gibt es jeden Morgen ab 5 Uhr.

Senior U.S. officials, congressional leaders and insider reporting have fuelled growing debate over the extent of Israel's role in the war with Iran and whether it stands to gain the most from the ongoing conflict. After nine weeks of fighting and an estimated $25 billion in costs, current peace talks are reportedly focused on reopening a key maritime trade route and restricting Iran's nuclear ambitions to levels similar to those agreed under the former nuclear deal abandoned by President Trump.

UnHerd's Freddie Sayers discusses the ongoing military campaign in Iran with former National Security Advisor John Bolton who delivers a blunt critique of the current administration by arguing that sporadic strikes are a strategic mistake and that the United States must instead commit to a total blockade of the Strait of Hormuz and the ultimate goal of regime change to permanently neutralise the threat of a nuclear armed Tehran, while simultaneously delivering a scathing personal assessment of President Trump's impulsive decision-making process.

The Trump administration's plans in the Middle East are often criticized by those who say he shouldn't have attacked Iran. But the White House is also facing flak from those who say that it didn't go far enough. John Bolton is a longtime proponent of regime change in Iran. He served as national security advisor in the first Trump administration before falling out with the president. Bolton joined FP's Ravi Agrawal for a debate. Plus, Ravi gives his read on the tenuous Middle East cease-fire.

Former National Security Advisor John Bolton joins Michael to break down the escalating U.S.–Iran crisis as President Trump issues a dramatic ultimatum. Will the U.S. strike Iranian infrastructure—and what would that mean for regime change, global oil markets, and the risk of wider war? Bolton argues the stakes go far beyond nuclear weapons, warning that control of the Strait of Hormuz could reshape the global economy and shift power toward Iran, Russia, and China. Then, listeners weigh in with sharp—and often conflicting—takes: Is this necessary strategy or a dangerous overreach? Could strikes on infrastructure backfire? And what does “victory” even look like A high-stakes conversation on war, diplomacy, and America's role in the Middle East. Original air date 7 April 2026. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

I wanted to talk with John about the war with Iran because he is in an absolutely unique position. He's someone who has been long publicly advocating for a policy of a regime change in Iran and who during his time in the White House tried to make it a reality - he is in many ways the ultimate Iran hawk. But unlike almost all the other Iran hawks and despite the fact that this could be seen as the realization of his lifetime goal, he is fiercely critical of the current war with Iran and of how it has been planned and executed. And so we talk about why Bolton thinks this war is heading for failure, why was there such a lack of planning and strategic thinking, whether Trump is already looking for the exit even with the Strait of Hormuz still closed - and what that would mean for America's standing in the world - and why, the United States might very likely end up in a much worse position than before the war started.
La guerra in Iran è un conflitto regionale con costi globali e con decine di attori statali e non statali coinvolti. Che scenario militare si sta concretizzando con il coinvolgimento degli Houthi e la possibilità di un attacco Usa a Kharg? Lo chiediamo a Giuseppe Dentice, analista Osmed (Osservatorio Mediterraneo) dell'Istituto di Studi Politici S. Pio V e a Pietro Batacchi, direttore Rivista Italiana Difesa. Facciamo poi il punto sulla strategia Usa sul lungo periodo e sul futuro della Nato con John Bolton, già consigliere per la sicurezza del presidente Donald Trump.

From Ukraine funding to Iran nukes and China's election interference, this episode exposes how U.S. foreign policy, intelligence, and media cover-ups shaped global events—and what Americans missed while politicians played politics. Summary: Ukraine & Endless War: $200 billion sent without a declaration of war, while Europeans could have covered costs. John Bolton calls it hypocrisy. Middle East Realities: Unlike Iraq or Afghanistan, this war directly protects the U.S., targeting real threats, not nation-building or oil schemes. Iran Threat: Iran's nuclear ambitions and unpredictable behavior demand action. U.S. and Israel are intervening to prevent another North Korea scenario. Intelligence Cover-Ups: John Solomon reports that China—and not Russia—hacked U.S. elections, creating fake ballots for Joe Biden. FBI and CIA allegedly hid this from Trump and Congress. COVID & Election Fraud: Pentagon and USAID funding allegedly enabled China to manipulate mail-in ballots, tying pandemic responses to election influence. Domestic Impacts: Unprecedented migration of Chinese, Iranian, and other foreign nationals creates a “virtual army” inside the U.S., complicating national security. Democrat Governance Fails: Kathy Hochel's statements reveal a mindset of treating taxpayers as “captives” while begging for checks to sustain high-tax policies. Media & Public Blind Spots: Most outlets ignored these stories, leaving Americans unaware of threats and policy failures. Timestamps: 00:00 – Funding Ukraine without a declaration of war 05:20 – Lessons from Iraq and Afghanistan 09:40 – Iran's nuclear threat & Israel's role 14:10 – Intelligence cover-ups: China election hacking revealed 19:00 – COVID, mail-in ballots, and election manipulation 22:50 – Domestic security threats: virtual armies inside the U.S. 26:30 – Democrat policies and the captive mindset 30:00 – Media silence and overlooked reporting Key Quotes: “This is the first war I have seen us fight in my adult lifetime where we really are going to war for ourselves to reduce threat to us.” “While screaming about Russia collusion, it was actually China all along.” “They didn't want their intel used by ‘that Bulgarian in the Oval Office.'” “Most people aren't captives anymore… they used to be, but Democrat policies are chasing them away.” “Guarantee, they're gearing up to do it again—midterms, maybe 2028.” Keywords / Custom Labels: Ukraine Funding, Iran Nuclear Threat, Israel Defense, China Election Hacking, FBI CIA Cover-Up, Hunter Biden, COVID Ballot Fraud, Democrat Policies, Election Security, Middle East War, John Solomon, Kathy Hochel
From election meddling and mass mail-in ballot fraud to Iran's nuclear threats and billions in foreign aid, today's episode exposes the hidden stories the mainstream media ignores—and what Americans need to know to protect their country. Summary: Ukraine Spending & Middle East Policy: $200 billion sent to Ukraine without a declaration of war, while Americans bear the cost. Experts like John Bolton call out hypocrisy as Europe could have covered the bill. Bases in Syria, billions spent defending foreign interests, and lessons from Iraq/Afghanistan illustrate how this is different: this war directly protects U.S. national security. Iran Nuclear Threat: Iran's pursuit of nuclear weapons poses an existential threat. U.S. and Israel are acting to prevent another North Korea scenario. The left ignores these dangers despite past warnings from CIA directors about attacks on the U.S. grid. China Election Interference: John Solomon reports China—not Russia—hacked U.S. election systems, creating fake ballots for Joe Biden. FBI and CIA allegedly hid this intel from Trump and Congress. The SAFE Act could finally bring this to light. COVID & Election Fraud: Pentagon and USAID funding enabled China to manipulate mail-in ballots and mass mailers, tying pandemic responses to election influence. Hunter and Joe Biden allegedly compromised through Chinese payments. Domestic Security Risks: Tens of thousands of foreign nationals—including Chinese and Iranian—enter the U.S. each month, creating a “virtual army” and increasing the difficulty of defending against domestic threats. Democrat Governance & Economic Collapse: Kathy Hochel's plea for returning taxpayers exposes a mindset of treating citizens as “captives” while policies drive people and businesses out of states like New York. High taxes and poor governance are pushing out skilled workers and professionals. Media Blind Spots: The mainstream media largely ignores these stories, focusing on non-issues while America's security and elections are compromised. Timestamps: 00:00 – Ukraine funding, foreign aid, and “forever wars” 06:10 – Lessons from Iraq, Afghanistan, and U.S. foreign policy hypocrisy 11:50 – Iran nuclear threat & Israel's intervention 16:20 – Election interference: Russia collusion hoax vs. China's real involvement 21:40 – COVID, mail-in ballots, and Chinese election manipulation 25:30 – Domestic security threats from foreign nationals 29:10 – Democrat economic policies and the “captive” taxpayer mindset 32:50 – Media silence & the need for investigative reporting 35:00 – Epic rant of the week & closing insights Key Quotes: “This is the first war I have seen us fight in my adult lifetime where we really are going to war for ourselves to reduce threat to us.” “While screaming about Russia collusion, it was actually China all along.” “They didn't want their intel used by ‘that Bulgarian in the Oval Office.'” “Most people aren't captives anymore… they used to be, but Democrat policies are chasing them away.” “Guarantee, they're gearing up to do it again—midterms, maybe 2028.” “The SAFE Act will expose who voted, who didn't, and what foreign actors tried to manipulate our elections.” Keywords / Custom Labels: Ukraine War Funding, Iran Nuclear Threat, Israel Defense, China Election Hacking, FBI CIA Cover-Up, Hunter Biden, COVID Ballot Fraud, Democrat Policies, Election Security, Middle East War, John Solomon, Kathy Hochel, Foreign Aid, Mail-In Ballots
Trump's former national security advisor John Bolton has a tweet that's got me absolutely fuming right now. "In 2018–2019, I made the case for regime change in Iran as often as I could. Voices in Trump's orbit often cited Iran's capacity to close the Strait of Hormuz as a reason against regime change. Trump has been fully aware this is a possibility, and yet did not prepare," Bolton posted. Can you believe this shit? Dude's like "Hey, Trump should have known this war would be hard because people tried to warn him not to listen to me!" Reading by Tim Foley.

SEASON 4 EPISODE 68: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (2:30) SPECIAL COMMENT: Trump doesn’t REALIZE that he’s screwed in Iran. He can't decide if he's won and we should applaud now, or if he'll win later and we should applaud then - when the reality is, he's in a quagmire and about two weeks from handing the Democrats a majority that even White House strategists think might be enough to impeach AND remove him next year. Key Republicans and everybody behind the scenes in MAGA are looking for off-ramps. Does Trump know? Will he be temporarily not-a-moron and take one of them? Is Trump in a fugue state? Dissociative behavior? Temporary amnesia? No awareness that there are consequences? You know – his normal state – only WORSE. First about Iran he said “any time I want it to end, it will end." Now about Iran he says it will continue indefinitely until they quote “literally could never build that country back.” Is there a strategy? A plan? Anything? In the most important document of the war, Senator Chris Murphy told us what he could of a semi-confidential briefing about Iran by the administration. They seem to think all they have to do is destroy all of Iran's armaments and they'll never ever find a way to replace them. And while he’s demanding the world bend to his will, again he is helping the Russians help the Iranians try to kill our people and our allies. Monday I mentioned it was the Russians locating American Assets in the middle east for Iran's benefit. Now Trump is indirectly funding Russian advisors helping Iran with its drone strategy. Is Trump even aware he is awake? And what the hell is this with him trying to guess the shoe size of his cabinet members and buying them shoes that were already out of style in 1966? PLUS what is it with Pete PTSD Hegseth? He has now BANNED all outside photographers from Pentagon briefings because he thought the Associated Press images of him were unflattering. But ALL images of Pete Hegseth are unflattering. B-Block (32:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Poor Adnan Virk misses by an inch after trying to out-sing Michael Buble. Bill Maher gets run over at an NBA game. Alina Habba brings us her umpteenth malapropism; she can't tell her Cahoots from her Cajones; and the Chairman of the House Intelligence Committee can't tell the difference between 1947 and 47 years. C-Block (45:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Hardly that. Things I found on an ancient cassette. A bunch of radio sportscasts I did in my first 90 days in this business - just the other day (in 1979). Enjoy, or skip them, I won't be offended either way.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Former Trump national security adviser John Bolton tells Meet the Press NOW he believes President Trump has “not nearly enough” made the case for America's conflict with Iran as the war continues to destabilize the Middle East and global markets. Sen. Kevin Cramer (R-N.D.) says he believes in “protecting the power of the Senate” by keeping the filibuster as President Trump continues to pressure Republicans to eliminate it and pass the SAVE Act.

John Bolton joins Joanna Coles to help us understand what it's like working with Donald Trump during moments of maximum peril, when generals and intelligence chiefs are trying to brief a president who, Bolton says, often prefers talking to listening. Drawing on his time as national security advisor during Trump's first term, he describes a commander in chief uncomfortable in the Situation Room, dismissive of the structured National Security Council process created under the National Security Act of 1947, and prone to reversing decisions—even after operations were underway. As Trump weighs a potentially prolonged confrontation with Iran, Bolton assesses whether he has the patience to sustain it, why Benjamin Netanyahu has proved especially effective at influencing him, and how mixed messaging to Congress and allies weakens America's hand when American lives are at stake in the Gulf.
