Today's Headlines: Oh boy, what a weekend! Trump deployed the National Guard to the reflecting pool, where they arrested a 67-year-old former Olympic cyclist who stopped during a bike ride and touched the water to feel the liner — charging him with destruction of government property. Trump posted that "multiple individuals" were arrested for vandalism and threatened "years in jail." The algae situation is now worse than ever, and we now know that the no-bid contract was awarded to a company owned by a Trump donor and Mar-a-Lago member named John Cafaro whose firm Greenwater Services was clearly not equipped for the job. Trump also got into a feud with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni after claiming she "begged" him for a photo at the G7, which Italy responded to by canceling a planned state visit and Meloni posting a video saying "Italy and I do not beg," and Trump doubled down anyway. He also posted a photo of a random woman captioned "great daughter, my honor!!" who turned out to be a Clinton-era businesswoman whose actual daughter is the chairwoman of the Manhattan Republican Party. On the war beat, less than a day after signing the memorandum of understanding, US intelligence warned Trump that Netanyahu would likely undermine the deal — which he immediately did by continuing strikes in Lebanon, prompting Iran to close the Strait of Hormuz again. JD Vance made it to Switzerland for negotiations on Sunday with Tweedles Dee & Dum (Kushner & Witkoff), and Trump promptly torpedoed the meeting by posting threats of "harder strikes" against Iran while it was actively happening, causing Iran to walk out and demand an apology. As of Sunday night talks were back on, and Trump announced that if everything falls apart he's blaming JD Vance. The Pentagon also told Congress it needs $80 billion to cover the cost of the Iran war and replenish depleted ammunition supplies, Republicans need 60 Senate votes to pass it, and it's not looking great. Meanwhile, the Qatar-gifted $400 million plane has completed modifications and is ready to join Trump's Air Force One rotation, and the DOJ refused in a court filing to put in writing that they won't create the Traitor Fund, calling a written promise "unnecessary" because they already said so verbally, which is exactly what someone planning to do it anyway would say.

Michael McFaul discusses the Mar-a-Lago meeting between Trump and Xi, supporting the concept of "peace through strength" but emphasizing that engaging autocrats should not mean abandoning democratic values. He argues that the United States must work harder to keep allies united and should explicitly advocate for human rights during high-level meetings. Raising individual cases of repression, such as that of Jimmy Lai in Hong Kong, serves to inspire "small D democrats" living under tyranny. McFaul advocates for a self-help alliance system among democracies to counter cooperation between Russia, China, and Iran. (6)

Mike Johnson's claim that Donald Trump was an undercover FBI informant working to bring down Jeffrey Epstein is nothing more than political fan fiction. It comes after every other narrative—calling Epstein a hoax, smearing survivors, and demanding the public “move on”—has completely collapsed. The idea that Trump, who partied with Epstein, publicly called the scandal a Democrat hoax, and routinely defamed survivors, was secretly the Serpico of Mar-a-Lago is absurd on its face. If it were true, the files would already be released and Trump himself would be shouting about it from every podium. Instead, there's silence, spin, and desperate storytelling designed to distract from the reality: survivors were ignored, Epstein was protected, and the files remain locked away.At its core, this narrative is just another attempt to shield powerful people from accountability by rewriting history with Trump as the unlikely hero. But it collapses under even the slightest scrutiny—because the contradictions are glaring, the evidence is nonexistent, and the cruelty toward survivors is undeniable. Rather than offer transparency, Johnson offers a bedtime story, hoping the public will swallow it whole. Yet the truth is clear: if Trump really was an informant, then we should all be demanding the release of the files to see his supposed heroics. And since they refuse, we know exactly what this is—another cheap distraction to keep the truth buried, while the survivors still wait for the justice they deserve.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Veckans avsnitt handlar om Centerpartiets stora val (även känt som svensk politiks sämst bevarade hemlighet), Jimmie Åkessons elitfester och Kristerssons svar på Trumps Mar-a-Lago. Med Susanna Kierkegaard, Jonna Sima, Zina Al-Dewany och Anders Lindberg.

I want you to imagine you are sitting on a hard wooden bench in a packed federal courtroom, because that is exactly where the story of Donald Trump's court battles has been unfolding over the past few days. We start in New York, where the hush‑money case that once made Donald Trump the first former president ever convicted of a crime is now in a tense holding pattern. After a Manhattan jury previously found him guilty on dozens of counts related to falsifying business records to conceal payments to Stormy Daniels during the 2016 campaign, Trump's legal team has spent the past several days pressing appellate courts to step in, arguing that his actions were political, not criminal, and that key testimony should never have been admitted. According to detailed reporting from the New York Times and CNN, lawyers have been trading briefs and appearing in hearings focused on whether the conviction should stand and what it means for a presidential candidate facing sentencing while also running for the White House again. Judges have been openly wrestling with the unprecedented mix of election politics and criminal procedure. Down in Florida, the classified documents case out of the Southern District has lurched forward in fits and starts. Over the past few days, as described by outlets like the Washington Post and Politico, special counsel Jack Smith's team has been arguing over what evidence can be shown to a jury and how to handle the mountain of secret material recovered from Mar‑a‑Lago. They have been pushing Judge Aileen Cannon to keep the trial on track, while Trump's lawyers have leaned hard on claims of presidential authority and selective prosecution, filing fresh motions to dismiss and asking for more delays. Court hearings have featured long arguments over the Presidential Records Act and how far executive power really reaches once a president leaves office. Meanwhile, in Washington, D.C., the federal election interference case connected to January 6 has remained entangled with questions of presidential immunity. Over the last several days, commentators from NBC News to the Associated Press have been tracking new filings where Trump's attorneys insist that almost everything he did around the 2020 election was an official act and therefore shielded from prosecution. Prosecutors have fired back, telling the judge that no president can use the Oval Office as a license to overturn an election. The Supreme Court's earlier rulings on executive power hover over every argument, and the precise wording of those opinions has been quoted and dissected in court day after day. In Georgia, the Fulton County racketeering case alleging a multi‑state conspiracy to overturn Joe Biden's 2020 win continues to simmer. According to coverage by the Atlanta Journal‑Constitution, the past few days have seen more behind‑the‑scenes maneuvering than dramatic courtroom fireworks. Trump's lawyers are still pushing to sever his trial from co‑defendants, to move the case out of Fulton County, and to knock out the sweeping racketeering charge that ties the plot together. The judge has been working through a crowded motions calendar, and every decision there could change the timeline of when Trump might actually face a Georgia jury. Taken together, the last few days have not produced a single, explosive moment, but instead a drumbeat of hearings, orders, and filings in four different jurisdictions, all aimed at answering one enormous question: how do American courts hold a former president accountable while he is actively seeking to become president again? Every ruling in New York, Florida, Washington, and Georgia nudges that answer in one direction or another. Thank you for tuning in, and come back next week for more.

We need to talk about the "creator economy" and the stylish influencers pushing disinformation and misinformation directly into our feeds. The more glossy you are, the more attention you get–and attention is the new currency. That is the same ethos of the princess-haired women swanning around Mar-a-Lago. It's a deliberate dumbing down of society. When gloss replaces the time-intensive grind of investigative journalism, the autocrats and oligarchs who push this strategy distract and confuse us, and ensure important voices who can't win a Sephora Hunger Games get shut out.  In this week's bonus show, Gaslit Nation also covers the chilling expansion of America's police state, focusing on the horrifying conditions at the Delaney detention center in New Jersey. Inmates are on hunger strike to demand basic human rights, mirroring the brutal history of political prisoners under Stalin's regime. We must raise our voices, pressure our elected officials (like Governor Mikie Sherrill), and refuse to look away.

The U.S. war with Iran is not—despite promises from the White House—over. Nonetheless, premier national commentator David Frum is ready to declare a loser: Donald Trump. Together Harry and David piece through the interlocking personal failings of the president that foretold a winnable war against a far weaker enemy would become a debacle. And the two tackle how those traits shape Trump's more successful pursuits: self-enrichment, going around the Constitution, and Mar-a-Lago-ifying the nation's capital.  Mentioned in this episode: David's columns: https://www.theatlantic.com/author/david-frum/ David's piece "Why Trump Lost": https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/2026/05/why-trump-lost-iran/687291/ David's podcast: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDamP-pfOskNgMNI1eg0pajQfRu-q3NUO Learn more about your ad choices.

While it is not unusual for Donald Trump to appoint completely unqualified people to important jobs in his administration, his choice of Bill Pulte, a Mar-a-Lago suck-up who Trump had already gifted the position of director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, to be the new Director of National Intelligence is too far for many Republicans who are already dealing with the burden of association with Trump's unpopularity. Senator Adam Schiff, a former member of the House Intelligence Committee, discusses with Jen Psaki. Jen Psaki talks with Iowa State Rep. Josh Turek, now the Democratic candidate for Senate, about how Donald Trump's policies, from tariffs to the war with Iran have made the challenges Iowans deal with, particularly Iowa's farmers, more difficult, and how he addresses that in his campaign. Scott MacFarlane, chief Washington correspondent for MeidasTouch, talks with Jen Psaki about the calamity taking place at CBS News as Trump loyalists eject journalists who resist their editorial influence.

Amanda Ungaro, a former Brazilian model and former partner of Paolo Zampolli, claimed in a deleted online recording that Melania Trump knew Jeffrey Epstein before she met Donald Trump and that Epstein, not Zampolli, was the person who introduced the couple. The allegations also point to a reported 2019 FBI proffer interview in which a former Epstein assistant allegedly said Epstein introduced Melania to Trump. The same material describes Epstein as being familiar with Zampolli's modeling-agency world, including claims that Epstein visited the agency during casting activity and discussed acquiring Elite Models with Zampolli.The article also lays out the competing denials and credibility issues surrounding the allegation. Melania Trump has said she met Donald Trump by chance at a New York party in 1998, while Zampolli has denied Ungaro's claims and maintained that he was the one who introduced them. Ungaro and Zampolli had documented connections to Trump's orbit, including attendance at inauguration-related events and time at Mar-a-Lago, but Ungaro's claims are presented alongside disputes over her credibility, including a custody battle, deportation to Brazil, and fraud-related legal problems. The result is a contested set of claims about the Epstein-Zampolli-Melania-Trump timeline, with the central allegations still unresolved.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Former Brazilian Model Claims Melania Trump Was an 'Escort' for Jeffrey Epstein Before She Met Donald Trump | IBTimes UK

The Biden Administration's lies are crumbling around them, starting with Joe Biden's clear mental collapse during his presidency. Remember how the media and admin officials swore to us over and over that Joe was sharp as a tack? We do. The DOJ launches a criminal probe into Trump sex accuser E Jean Carroll as new information now confirms Biden's DOJ KNEW it didn't have probable cause to raid Mar a Lago... but did it anyway.   

Greg Kelly Reports | May 26, 2026 - Ken Paxton steamrolls John Cornyn in Texas, turning the primary into another unmistakable rejection of old-guard Republicans who drift from Trump and the base. - Democrats are mocked for hyping James Talarico as a political superstar, even as his rhetoric on gender, borders, religion, and identity makes him look wildly out of step with Texas. - The episode revisits January 6 as a still-buried scandal, arguing that the people prosecuted that day deserve restitution while establishment Republicans keep dodging the harder truths. - Trump's handling of classified documents gets reframed as another example of lawfare, with fresh details used to suggest even Justice Department insiders knew the Mar-a-Lago case was shaky. - The broader message is that voters keep rewarding fighters over caretakers, while media narratives, party machines, and political insiders keep backing weaker candidates and losing credibility.

You Won't Believe What Trump Just Did- A $1,776,000,000 Gift To Abused Patriots Trump just turned the left's own legal weapon against them — and handed $1,776,000,000 to the Americans they hunted. The number wasn't random. It was chosen on purpose. Is this the reckoning patriots have been praying for? Lance Wallnau breaks down exactly how Trump used Eric Holder's own Obama-era DOJ playbook to build a $1.776 billion compensation fund — deliberately named after 1776 — for every American targeted, prosecuted, and destroyed by weaponized government under the Biden administration. From the Russia hoax to the Mar-a-Lago raid to the IRS leaking Trump's tax returns — it's all bundled into one historic settlement. The left is screaming "slush fund." But the courts already blessed this structure when Obama did it. Lance also features a powerful Charlie Kirk clip revealing the stunning Christian foundation of all 13 original colonies, plus a conversation with attorney and author Elizabeth Ingram Carlisle on her new book Americans Who Pray — released just in time for America's 250th anniversary. In this episode: How Trump flipped the Obama-Holder DOJ playbook into a $1.776B win for patriots Why the January 6 defendants may finally see justice and compensation The Mar-a-Lago raid, the Russia hoax, and the IRS leak — all settled Chuck Schumer and the New York Times meltdown explained Charlie Kirk: 9 of 13 original colonies required Bible-believing Christians in government Deuteronomy — the most quoted source in all of America's founding documents Interview: Americans Who Pray author Elizabeth Ingram Carlisle on faith and America's identity Lance's personal testimony of coming to Christ at Valley Forge The reckoning isn't coming. It's already here.

Today's Headlines: Trump announced the US and Iran were near "finalization" of a deal on Saturday, then posted less than 24 hours later that he's "not in a rush" — with the reported framework giving Iran $25 billion in unfrozen assets in exchange for disposing of enriched uranium and temporarily reopening the Strait of Hormuz, while Iranian officials claim American diplomats have been privately telling them to ignore Trump's posts because they're "primarily for media consumption," which is either reassuring or terrifying. Tulsi Gabbard resigned as Director of National Intelligence citing her husband's rare bone cancer diagnosis, though it follows months of reporting that Trump was already planning to fire her. A gunman opened fire at a White House security checkpoint Saturday, was shot by officers, and died at the hospital — he had previously been arrested for walking into a restricted White House area while claiming to be Jesus Christ. A federal prosecutor was indicted for trying to leak Jack Smith's sealed Mar-a-Lago report by disguising it as a file called "bundt_cake_recipe.pdf" and emailing it to herself, which is both a federal crime and the most creative act of resistance we've seen all year. Hasan Piker and CodePink's Medea Benjamin were reportedly subpoenaed over a humanitarian aid trip to Cuba — except neither actually received subpoenas, and Piker had cleared the trip with the Treasury Department's own office beforehand. Minnesota became the first state to ban prediction market platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket outright, and the Trump administration immediately sued the state in response. CBS issued copyright notices against Colbert's surprise public access appearance the day after his Late Show finale, then backed off after universal backlash. And New York City recovered $9 million in unpaid idling fines from Amazon, because a $2 trillion company apparently couldn't be bothered to pay its tickets.

Donald Trump's $1.8 billion "anti-weaponization" settlement fund has stunned legal experts—not just because it's corrupt, but because of how skillfully and transparently it is designed to protect the Trump Family and reward loyalists. On this week's Amicus, Dahlia Lithwick brings together two of the sharpest observers of Trump-era lawlessness to map exactly what this is and why it matters.J.P. Cooney, a career federal prosecutor and former top deputy in Jack Smith's special counsel's office, explains how President Trump sued his own IRS as a private party, settled the case through attorneys who have also been his personal lawyers, and then secured an addendum—signed by acting Attorney General Todd Blanche—immunizing Trump and his family from any IRS audit or tax-enforcement proceeding. Cooney calls it "practiced, skillful corruption". As Investigative journalist Andrea Bernstein, host of The Law According to Trump, author of American Oligarchs, and a veteran of five Trump trials, points out, this settlement enshrines Trumpian language— such as "unlawful raid at Mar-a-Lago" and "Russia collusion hoax"—in official U.S. government documents. Bernstein says it's vital to be clear about who stands to receive payouts: people convicted of seditious conspiracy, assaulting Capitol police officers, and other crimes they admitted to in open court. Cooney and Bernstein agree this fund doesn't just reward insurrection—it incentivizes future violence, chills legitimate dissent, and systematically erases the historical record of Jan. 6. Later, Slate executive editor Susan Matthews joins to preview the new season of Slow Burn, Becoming Justice Gorsuch—and explain why the most anonymous justice on the court is so pivotal to understanding the power and the politics of the highest court in the land.
