TrishRegan #news Full Episode 5-33 Lester Holt joins Joy Reid on the unemployed list. The longtime host of the NBC signature program “Nightly News” is leaving his post, as Joy Reid and others learn their fates. New video today of Joy Reid sobbing and claiming “my show had value”… I would dispute that. Meanwhile, my friend Dan Bongino is heading to the FBI! Trish says this means big trouble for the Clintons and Hunter… Kash plus Dan is quite a combo. From Russia, Russia, Russia to the Clinton Global Initiative - it's all on the table. And Dan, like Kash, knows his stuff. Dan Bongino, for what it's worth, also happens to have been Hillary Clinton's former Secret Service detail -- and he's not a fan. President Trump says the war in Ukraine is coming to and end - we have the latest from the White House and… The Philadelphia Eagles may still be heading to Washington DC to meet with the President and celebrate their win. (Could their mayor just learn to spell the team name first?) Those stories and more in today’s live edition of The Trish Regan Show.

Here are 3 Big Things you need to know to start today—   Number One— Another Democrat Senator is in hot water—this time its Sheldon Whitehouse—The Rhode Island lefty was apparently making decisions that benefitted his wife's charity—BUT don't worry you got to pay for it—   Number Two— This week NBC News saw more people fly out the door—Joy Reid and Alex Wagner got the boot—and Lester Holt ran for the exit—is anyone left?   Number Three— Kash Patel is the new FBI director under the Trump administration – and I couldn't be more excited. Kash has joined me many times on this program and others here – and he's long called for transparency and accountability from our institutions – especially the FBI.

On today's Top News in 10, we cover:    Today marks three years since Russia invaded Ukraine.  Federal Employees had their weekend's interrupted with an email from the Office of Personnel Management. Federal workers were asked to reply to the email with 5 bullet points explaining what they did last week. Germany just held major elections over the weekend - elections that prove the U.S. is not the only nation embracing conservative policies.  Also on today's show:  Ban Bongino has been tapped to be number two at the FBI under Kash Patel.  'NBC Nightly News' anchor Lester Holt will be stepping down from the show this summer.    Links From Today's Show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vR-NbQU55uc  Keep Up With The Daily Signal Sign up for our email newsletters: https://www.dailysignal.com/email     Subscribe to our other shows:  The Tony Kinnett Cast: https://www.dailysignal.com/the-tony-kinnett-cast  Problematic Women: https://www.dailysignal.com/problematic-women  The Signal Sitdown: https://www.dailysignal.com/the-signal-sitdown    Follow The Daily Signal:  X: https://x.com/DailySignal  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thedailysignal/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheDailySignalNews/  Truth Social: https://truthsocial.com/@DailySignal  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/DailySignal  Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/TheDailySignal    Thanks for making The Daily Signal Podcast your trusted source for the day's top news.

Jon Herold breaks down the bombshell appointment of Dan Bongino as FBI Deputy Director, a move that has MAGA buzzing, and the establishment panicking. But is this a legitimate shake-up or another 4D chess move? Jon unpacks what this means for the FBI, Spygate, and Trump's long game. Meanwhile, Trump just secured a massive $500 billion Apple investment in the U.S., proving once again that America First policies actually work. Tech giants are suddenly throwing money at domestic expansion, but is it about innovation, or survival? Also in this episode: Ron DeSantis jumps on the DOGE bandwagon with his own Florida Task Force, but is it real reform or just political theater? Plus, Joy Reid, Lester Holt, and other MSM puppets get the axe, the UN scrambles to control Ukraine negotiations, and Elon Musk's email purge forces the Swamp to justify their paychecks. The narrative is shifting fast...let's break it all down.

CannCon and Absolute1776 break down the latest FBI power shift as Kash Patel gets to work cleaning house, sending 1,500 staffers out of D.C. and back into the field. Meanwhile, he's also been tapped to lead the ATF, setting off speculation that Trump might be planning to dismantle it entirely. Gun rights groups are cheering, left-wing activists are panicking, and the 2A community is watching closely. Meanwhile, Trump takes a wrecking ball to fake news, calling out MSNBC's tanking ratings as Joy Reid, Alex Wagner, and now Lester Holt get the boot. The media's propaganda machine is imploding, and the firings aren't stopping there. Also in this episode: Biden's border policies collapse as migrant shelters shut down, Trump pulls $80 million in funding from NYC's illegal alien hotels, and the DOJ goes after Medicare fraud at UnitedHealth. Plus, Elon Musk's ultimatum to federal employees: prove you're working or consider yourself resigned. The Deep State is scrambling, the winning continues!

Idealistic. Tenacious. Leaving marathon talks...achieving a peace treaty that is still in place today, but, closer to home, Carter's inexperience, and his distaste for political rough and tumble became serious handicaps. And when the economy tanked, so did Carter's popularity.  He seemed to blame Americans themselves."On Christmas Eve, the @nytimes publishes a piece debunking the Virgin birth and arguing that Mary either had an affair or was raped by a Roman soldier named Panthera.
