//The Wire//2300Z November 5, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: ANOTHER MIGRANT CRIMINAL "MISTAKENLY" RELEASED IN SOUTH LONDON ALMOST A WEEK AGO. PLANE CRASH IN KENTUCKY RESULTS IN 11X FATALITIES AS SEVERAL REMAIN MISSING. VEHICLE RAMMING ATTACK CONDUCTED IN FRANCE.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-United Kingdom: This morning the Metropolitan Police revealed that another migrant criminal had "mistakenly" been released by the prison services in South London. Brahim Kaddour-Cherif, an Algerian migrant, was released in south London allegedly by accident over a week ago, while he was serving a sentence for trespassing with intent to burglarize. Some sources also claim that the fugitive has a history of sexual offenses, and the Metropolitan Police claim that they were only notified of this mistake yesterday.France: This morning a vehicle ramming attack was carried out on Île d'Oléron, a small island tourist destination on the west coast of France. Many people were wounded after an attacker deliberately drove his vehicle into a crowd. 2x people remain in critical condition, and 9x others were wounded during the attack. The assailant has not yet been identified, however locals state that he was known to local police.-HomeFront-Kentucky: Overnight the casualty count regarding yesterday's plane crash rose to a total of 11x fatalities as several people remain missing. As of this morning, the fires are mostly out, and firefighters remained on the scene throughout much of the day. The main structures that the plane crashed in to on the ground were the Ford auto factory, as well as UPS's own logistics hub that serviced the airport. As a result, this major regional package sorting facility will be offline for some time.USA: Around the United States, the rollup of yesterday's election resulted in a near total victory for Democrat candidates across the board. Zohran Mamdani was elected Mayor of New York City by a wide margin, and Abigail Spanberger won the Governorship in Virginia. Also in Virginia, Ghasala Hashmi won the election for Lieutenant Governor, making her the first Muslim woman to hold the office in state history. Jay Jones also won his election for Attorney General, despite the scandal during his campaign surrounding his comments calling for the murder of his enemy's wife and children in a text exchange. Analyst Comment: Jones also quite literally tried to kick a dog at a polling place on election day, which although a unique campaign tactic, didn't seem to hurt his election chances either.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: In the United Kingdom, the most concerning detail of the second-migrant-release case is that this release took place on October 29th. Per their statements, the Met only found out about this release yesterday afternoon, almost a full week after the criminal was released.This situation was also made worse by comments made (or rather, not made) during the Prime Minister's Questions session in Parliament yesterday. Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy was hounded by a few MPs for refusing to answer the question of whether or not any more migrants had accidentally been released since the Kebatu case came to light. After his refusal to answer this question the first time, this ballooned into him being pressed again and again, resulting in him refusing to answer the simple question roughly half a dozen times. At that moment, it didn't make much sense as to why this level of resistance was offered up by Lammy, or why he became so belligerent at this specific question being asked. After all he could just say "not that I'm aware of" and move on, no big deal. Instead, he became quite belligerent to the point that this may have been the indicator for something else.Consequently, this morning the picture became more clear...at the exact moment that he was answering questions in Parlia

It was a bad showing for Republicans in last night's elections. Democrats had a full sweepin Virginia as Abigail Spanberger won the gubernatorial election, bringing Jay Jones as Attorney General and Ghazala Hashmi as Virginia's Lieutenant Governor. Democrat Mikie Sherrill won in New Jersey and Socialist Zohran Mamdani is now Mayor-elect in New York City. At day 36, we are now in the longest government shutdown in history as President Trump urges Republicans to use the 'nuclear' option. Mark Mitchell is on today's show to unpack the undertones of American society and what happened at the ballot box. As the Republican party frays over personalities like Nick Fuentes, the Democrats have unified in their messaging and assemblance. While their policies have created a situation like New York, while 64% percent foreign-born New Yorkers voted for Mamdani, what lies beneath is much more frightening. While Capitalism has created the richest nation in history, it has also created tremendous wealth disparities and no one feels this more than Gen-Z. Zoomers that voted for Donald Trump were only spilt 44% - 43% on Socialism. Gen-z sees an unaffordable future, a battle of the sexes, and high incidents of mental health. They look at a system that has failed them and have a 'burn it all down' attitude. Democratic-Socialism is appealing to younger voters and Zohran Mamdani is the embodiment of this. Therefore, it is up to Republicans to coalesce with substantive messaging and strong leadership that can carry us into the future.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. It's Election Day! A high-energy Election Day edition packed with breaking political analysis and cultural commentary. Clay celebrates the release of his new book “Balls”, urging listeners to support conservative voices in publishing. The hour dives deep into the New York City mayoral race, spotlighting the shocking Donald Trump endorsement of Andrew Cuomo as a strategic move to block socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani. Clay and Buck debate whether this last-minute endorsement helps or hurts Cuomo, referencing insights from Stephen Miller and Van Jones, and warning that a split in the anti-Mamdani vote could hand victory to the far-left. The hosts analyze key battlegrounds in Virginia and New Jersey, stressing the importance of down-ballot races like Attorney General and Lieutenant Governor. They predict razor-thin margins and urge listeners nationwide to get out and vote. Discussion turns to Mamdani’s progressive promises—rent freezes, free buses, and government grocery stores—which Cuomo calls “TikTok promises” with no legal basis. Clay and Buck argue these policies would worsen crime and quality of life, drawing parallels to failed corporate virtue-signaling like Starbucks’ bathroom policy and Bud Light’s marketing missteps. Get Some Balls! Clay promotes his new book “Balls”, endorsed by President Trump, and shares plans for charitable initiatives tied to free speech advocacy. Clay and Buck analyze the high-stakes contests in New Jersey, Virginia, and New York City, emphasizing how Democrats will frame victories as a referendum on Donald Trump’s presidency, despite these being deep-blue strongholds. The hosts spotlight the New Jersey governor’s race, where Jack Ciattarelli’s chances hinge on massive Republican turnout to overcome Democrats’ early voting lead. They slam progressive policies like plastic bag bans, arguing they harm consumers and the environment, and highlight housing affordability crises caused by government mandates and rent control schemes. Our Data Guru Crunches the Early Numbers Data analyst Ryan Girdusky joins to break down record-breaking voter turnout, surging Democratic numbers in key counties, and the implications for future elections. The discussion expands to electricity price spikes, the impact of data centers, and Democrats’ strategy to nationalize local races around Trump. In New York City, the conversation centers on the mayoral showdown featuring Zohran Mamdani, whose socialist platform promises rent freezes, free buses, and government grocery stores—policies Clay and Buck call “fairy tales” that would worsen crime and quality of life. They dissect Andrew Cuomo’s failure to give Republicans a reason to support him, despite Trump’s last-minute endorsement, and warn that a Mamdani victory could embolden far-left figures like AOC to push national socialism. The hour also covers Virginia’s gubernatorial race, where Winsome Sears struggles after running a single-issue campaign on transgender bathrooms, while down-ballot races for Attorney General and Lieutenant Governor remain competitive. Gonna Be Gavin and The Empire Strikes Back The hosts revisit the stakes in New York City’s mayoral race, the Virginia and New Jersey governor contests, and California’s Proposition 50, warning that Democrats will frame any wins as a repudiation of Donald Trump’s presidency despite these being deep-blue strongholds. Clay and Buck emphasize the importance of voting and highlight how Democrats use emotional manipulation—rather than real solutions—to distract from failures on crime, cost of living, and governance.

All eyes are on Virginia ahead of next week's statewide elections. Recent polls continue to show Democrat Abigail Spanberger leading Republican Winsome Earle-Sears, while both the Lieutenant Governor and Attorney General races are in virtual dead heats. We previewed Virginia's upcoming elections with WAMU's Northern Virginia reporter Margaret Barthel and former U.S. Rep. Tom Davis (R-VA). A split ticket remains a possibility, said Davis, meaning that members of different parties could be elected to the three statewide offices. "Divided government can work very well when you have adults at the helm," he said. "When you don't, it just makes gridlock even worse."Plus, we discussed Virginia Democrats' push for redistricting.Maryland Governor Wes Moore is also considering supporting plans to redraw Maryland's eight congressional districts, but some Democratic leaders are considering blocking the move. House Majority Leader David Moon (D-MD), who represents Montgomery County, joined the show to discuss why he also supports redistricting efforts. On late Friday afternoon, a federal judge ruled the Trump administration must continue to fund SNAP benefits during the shutdown, giving the administration a deadline of Monday to respond. In the meantime, states like Maryland have been debating how to help those who could lose food assistance starting Saturday. Maryland Governor Wes Moore announced Thursday he's allocating $10 million in state funds to local food banks. But many Maryland lawmakers wanted the governor to do more, including stepping in to fully fund federal SNAP benefits. Del. Moon said leadership is considering tapping into the state's rainy day fund.“To get people through Thanksgiving and the winter holidays, I think that's really the question, whether we can do a little bit more to at least keep some of the benefits,” he said.Moon said funding uninterrupted food assistance would cost Maryland $130 million per month. Send us questions and comments for guests: kojo@wamu.orgFollow us on Instagram: instagram.com/wamu885Follow us on Bluesky: bsky.app/wamu.org

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for October 30, 2025. 0:30 For years, the Department of Justice has turned a blind eye to corruption—but that may finally be changing. The DOJ is investigating Black Lives Matter leaders for allegedly defrauding donors of millions, a long-overdue step toward restoring real accountability. From BLM mansions to political double standards, public trust has eroded under unequal justice—and holding every power player to the same standard, left or right, is essential to saving faith in the system. 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. President Trump has reached a trade deal with China that is expected to avert an all out trade war between the worlds' two largest economies. The Sunshine Protection Act — the bill that would give states he opportunity to ban the changing of the clocks from standard time to daylight savings time twice a year — has stalled out in Congress again. General Motors is laying off more than 3,000 workers this week.Some of the layoffs are temporary, but more than half are permanent. 12:30 Get NSorb from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:30 A new Quinnipiac poll out of New York City shows Democratic Socialist Zoran Mamdani leading the mayoral race with 43%—well ahead of Andrew Cuomo at 33% and Republican Curtis Sliwa at 14%. But are the polls missing something? We dig into what those numbers really mean, questioning whether the data captures the growing frustration among everyday New Yorkers tired of crime, taxes, and government overreach. 16:00 The American Mamas tackle a question that’s stirring controversy: should the NAACP be supporting Winsome Sears—a Black female immigrant, Marine veteran, and current Lieutenant Governor of Virginia—over white Democrat Abigail Spanberger? The Mamas break down the debate fallout, the viral reactions across social media, and the growing frustration among Black Americans who feel politically manipulated. From Barack Obama’s campaign choices to the NAACP’s partisan priorities, the conversation exposes what many see as deep hypocrisy within identity politics. As more voters—especially young Black men—begin speaking out and shifting right, the Mamas ask: is this the moment America finally wakes up to the political double standard? If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 When Kamala Harris appeared on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, her profanity-laced rant about Trump’s “ballroom for the rich” and looming SNAP benefit cuts turned heads for all the wrong reasons. We unpack the Vice President’s meltdown—fact-checking her claims about government shutdown funding and calling out the growing trend of political figures dropping F-bombs on national TV. 26:00 With ten months of President Trump’s second term in the books, we're looking back at the most productive stretches in modern presidential history. From record-breaking deportations and declining food stamp enrollment to rising GDP, falling inflation, and renewed energy dominance, the mainstream press is ignoring a wave of domestic and economic achievements. On everything from tariffs and tax cuts to military recruitment and peace deals abroad—this administration has delivered results where others only made promises. 32:30 Get Prodovite from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 33:30 For the first time in seven years, President Donald Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping meet face-to-face—and strike a deal that could reshape global trade. We break down the stunning tariff reductions, China’s promise to open its markets to American goods, and what it could mean for U.S. manufacturing. But is Beijing serious this time, or just smiling through another double-cross? 36:30 Turning Point USA lights up the University of Mississippi with a massive rally that packs the stadium and spills into the streets — and it wasn’t just the crowd that made headlines. Vice President J.D. Vance took center stage, fielding tough, unfiltered questions from students and delivering one of the most thoughtful defenses of faith and freedom we’ve ever heard from a sitting VP. From his take on Christianity’s role in America’s founding to his sharp insight into the future of conservative youth, this was a defining moment for a new generation of leaders. A genuine bright spot — and one worth replaying. 40:30 Glamour UK released its “Women of the Year” issue featuring biological men on the cover. When did celebrating women become about celebrating men? We've just got to say, "Whoa!"

John opens up about the cutthroat realities of running for office, the personal attacks he's faced, the real mental and physical risks in today's political climate—including wearing a bulletproof vest on the campaign trail—and why he believes fairness, respect, and honest debate are needed more than ever.

This week on Breaking Battlegrounds, we kick things off with John Reid, Republican candidate for Lieutenant Governor of Virginia, to talk about his “Real Virginia Agenda,” from workforce freedom to the gerrymandering Democrats are trying to push this week in Virginia—going against the will of Virginians—and his unconventional AI debate with opponent Ghazala Hashmi, who refused to debate him, so he debated an AI version of her using only her real quotes. Then Gary Gygi joins us to break down the upcoming Federal Reserve System meeting and what it could mean for interest rates and the economy. We're also joined by Anna Giaritelli of the Washington Examiner to discuss her powerful new memoir Under Assault and its message of justice and accountability.

It has been a tumultuous week in Virginia's Statewide races. The fallout from the Jay Jones text messages continues to reverberate across the nation now and in the midst of that? The one and only debate between Gubernatorial candidates, Republican Winsome Earle-Sears and Democrat Abigail Spanberger.  Spanberger had turned down a CNN-hosted debate saying she wanted “local news media” to moderate the debate. She may rue that decision because after a contetiuous first half of the debate in which the Lieutenant Governor would frequently interrupt filibuster-like answers asking if Spanberger was going to answer the actual question, the moderators began to pick up on that which led to what I think is the “McAuliffe Moment” of the debate You'll hear it in the beginning of this podcast, and I think you will find it interesting that it was prompted by the same tactic Glenn Youngkin used to get Terry to admit what he really thought.  After the debate a Poll was conducted by the Trafalgar Group that shows that incumbent Attorney General Jason Miyares is ahead of Jones 48.9%-43.1% and has the two top races ‘statistically tied' (within the margin of error). Spanberger's 12-point lead is now 2.6% with 5.6% still undecided and Delegate Ghazala Hashmi is only ahead of John Reid 46.8% to 45.9%. We caught up with the former Ronald Reagan and George Allen aide on the way to a morning campaign stop to talk about these events.

John Reid, Republican candidate for Lieutenant Governor of Virginia, joined The Guy Benson Show today to discuss the shocking scandal involving Democratic Attorney General candidate Jay Jones, who sent text messages saying he wished current Virginia House Speaker Todd Gilbert had “two bullets” in his head, along with wishing Gilbert's wife could watch her own children die in her arms. Reid expressed outrage over the silence from Virginia Democrats, including gubernatorial candidate Abagail Spanberger, who have refused to condemn Jones or call for him to drop out of the race. He also noted that many Democrats who voted early are now expressing deep regret over their decision. Reid detailed the disturbing pattern of escalating political violence on the left, from this scandal to the recent assassination of Charlie Kirk, and what it says about the state of our political discourse.

Most higher ed campaigns play it safe—and end up milk toast. In this episode of Talking Tactics, Safaniya Stevenson sits down with Baldwin&'s Ashley Yetman and Emily Watson to unpack why bold ideas beget bold design.

The Lieutenant Governor is doing everything he can to keep Louisiana clean - are you?

Virginia's statewide elections are now in the home stretch, with both sides pouring money into the races. The lieutenant governor contest might be the most competitive, with the race earning national attention and unexpected endorsements. The Democratic candidate joined us last week; now, Republican candidate John Reid took the mic and discussed the campaign and the issues, including reproductive rights and school gender policies. Plus, we asked Reid about turning down the temperature on political rhetoric.Protests earlier this month prompted Prince George's County leaders to pause all data center development, with a promise to assess the impacts and gather more input from residents. The move comes four years after the Prince George's County Council voted unanimously to allow data centers to be built 'by right,' meaning for most sites, developers wouldn't need council approval. Now, leaders are reconsidering that process. We asked Prince George's County Councilmember Wanika Fisher for her thoughts. Plus, we discussed the long-delayed Purple Line and how it could accelerate economic development in the county.Send us questions and comments for guests: kojo@wamu.orgFollow us on Instagram: instagram.com/wamu885Follow us on Bluesky: bsky.app/wamu.org

In this week’s episode, Jennifer welcomes Anne Brensley, a select board member from Wayland, Massachusetts, an accomplished attorney, finance professional, and small business owner. Anne is a first-generation American, adopted from Honduras, whose life journey includes profound experiences as a caregiver, community leader, and mother. With more than 15 years of entrepreneurial experience, senior leadership in banking, and a law degree, Anne brings determination and resilience to her campaign as she seeks the office of Lieutenant Governor of Massachusetts. Jennifer and Anne discuss the unique landscape of Massachusetts state politics, where candidates for Governor and Lieutenant Governor run independently, the underestimated power of the Lieutenant Governor’s office, and what it takes to run – and win – as a Republican woman in a predominantly blue state. Anne shares her gritty approach to leadership, emphasizing the urgent need for more practical, solution-oriented governance and fearless advocacy for local communities. The conversation tackles controversial criticisms of the MBTA Communities Act, the state’s high cost of living, outmigration of young professionals, and the lack of focus on “ownership” opportunities for the next generation. Anne positions herself as a voice for those impacted by stagnant, one-party rule and outlines a vision for connecting Statehouse policy to the everyday needs of families and municipalities. Listeners will hear candid commentary on party politics, local government, and Anne’s determination to use her diverse background as an asset for Massachusetts. “I think we have a major issue with ownership for young people. I mean that across the board, young people nowadays… they’re being deprived of ownership.” ~Anne Brensley This week on Political Contessa: Anne’s inspiration for running for Lieutenant Governor and leading from the ground up in Massachusetts The critical impact of local politics and the need for a direct line from municipalities to the state’s executive office The challenges of being a Republican woman entering statewide office in a predominantly Democratic state The overlooked potential for the Lieutenant Governor to serve as a change agent, not just a ceremonial figure The urgent need to address Massachusetts’s housing affordability and retention of young professionals Why Anne believes the MBTA Communities Act is missing the mark on homeownership and local empowerment The importance of fearless, resilient leadership and grassroots campaigning over data-driven, detached strategies Anne’s commitment to pragmatic, bipartisan problem-solving in government and her call for more women to run for office Connect with Anne Brensley: Website: www.anne2026.com Resources Mentioned: Anne Brinsley’s campaign for Lieutenant Governor of Massachusetts The MBTA Communities Act Tip O’Neill’s “All politics are local” Kelly Ayotte’s messaging on New Hampshire and Massachusetts Support Anne or get involved: Volunteer or contribute at www.anne2026.com Awaken Your Inner Political Contessa Thanks for tuning into this week’s episode of Political Contessa.

In this episode, breaking news hits Coastal Carolina University: a taxpayer-funded employee who praised the murder of Charlie Kirk and suggested Congresswoman Nancy Mace should be next is no longer employed. Tara dives into the bigger issue of tenure in higher education, asking whether state-funded professors should be shielded from accountability no matter what they say or do. Joining the conversation is Pam Evette, South Carolina's Lieutenant Governor and candidate for governor, who makes the case for ending tenure at state schools, empowering students to push back against bias in the classroom, and using financial leverage to drive change. The discussion also turns to illegal immigration enforcement, comparing South Carolina's approach to Florida's “all officers deputized” model, and whether similar steps could soon come to the Palmetto State. This fast-moving episode unpacks how colleges, politics, and law enforcement intersect — and what accountability should look like for those in positions of power.

Peggy Flanagan is Minnesota's 50th Lieutenant Governor, a member of the White Earth Band of Ojibwe, and currently the country's highest ranking Native woman elected to executive office. At the center of all her work is making progress for children, working families, communities of color and Indigenous communities, and Minnesotans who have historically been underserved…

Please note that Human Restoration Project is a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization and that this interview is not an endorsement of Morales as a candidate for office.Before Howie Morales became Lieutenant Governor of New Mexico, before he was ever a state senator, he was a teacher and a state-championship winning baseball coach in rural New Mexico. He also holds a Master's in bilingual education and a doctorate in curriculum and instruction. So it'd be difficult, it seems, to understand what he's accomplished in those elected positions except through the lens of his experience in the classroom. And he joins me to talk about that experience, how it informs his work and achievements in office, and the challenges New Mexico public school students, families, and teachers still face.

Another contentious School board meeting in Northern Virginia, this time in Fairfax where that school division is suing the Department of Education over funding that has been withheld because they have been found to be in violation of title 9 due to their policies regarding transgender students.  After the ugliness that pock-marked the Arlington School Board meeting last week, GOP Gubernatorial candidate Winsome Earle-Sears and Lieutenant Governor candidate John Reid were both at the meeting to address the board and Reid tells us at the Daily Signal how it went.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Show (08/18/2025): 3:05pm- On Monday, President Donald Trump held a multilateral meeting from the White House—which included Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and several European leaders including German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, French President Emmanuel Macron, and Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. 3:30pm- While speaking with the press, President Donald Trump expressed optimism about ending the war between Russia and Ukraine—noting that he didn't think an initial ceasefire agreement was necessary while simultaneously forging a path towards a permanent, lasting peace agreement. 3:40pm- President Trump said of the corporate media's coverage of his peace efforts: “No matter what I do, [Zelenskyy] comes out good—maybe Putin comes out good. They'll say Trump was absolutely horrible. And I've lived with that for a long time." 3:45pm- While taking questions from the press, President Trump was asked if American troops would be used to guarantee/enforce any hypothetical peace agreement between Russia and Ukraine. Trump said that the U.S. would be involved though he would not explicitly state American troops would be involved. 3:50pm- During an interview with Margaret Brennan, Secretary of State Marco Rubio said that he saw “movement” from the Russian delegation during Friday's Alaska summit—expressing optimism that an end to the war may be possible at some point. 4:05pm- While speaking with Bill Maher, actor Chris Pratt said of President Donald Trump and the far-left's over-the-top, vitriolic reactions to his administration's policies: "I'd hate to be so mired in hatred for the president that any success from his administration is something I'd have an allergic reaction to...be reasonable here. There are certain things that would be a good thing to have. I want them all to be successful." 4:15pm- Nearly a decade later, Hillary Clinton still thinks the results of the 2016 presidential election may not be legitimate—noting, it's “why we still litigate the election.” Who the heck is still “litigating” the 2016 election (aside from her)? 4:20pm- Following Friday's summit in Alaska, Russian President Vladimir Putin hinted that he would not have invaded Ukraine in 2022 had Donald Trump been president of the United States instead of Joe Biden. 4:30pm- In a post to social media, Pennsylvania Treasurer Stacy Garrity announced she will run for Governor of Pennsylvania—challenging incumbent Josh Shapiro. But will Doug Mastriano challenge her in the Republican Primary? 4:45pm- MSNBC is changing its name to “MS NOW”—that'll completely solve the network's ratings problems, right? 5:00pm- Abel Maldonado—former Lieutenant Governor of California—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss California Governor Gavin Newsom's pledge to gerrymander the state even further in order to counter Texas's redistricting efforts. Notably, Republicans currently hold just 17% of the congressional seats in CA—despite nearly 40% of the state voting for Donald Trump in 2024. Plus, Maldonado reacts to a recently resurfaced clip of Newsom from 2011 where he discusses his plan to make California great again. 5:20pm- In a bizarre video he voluntarily posted to social media, former FBI Director James Comey went into great detail about how much he loves Taylor Swift and her music. He's even in a Taylor Swift fan group text! 5:40pm- Daniel Turner—Founder and Executive Director of Power The Future—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his call for the “Trump administration to investigate what it suspects is a coordinated ‘national lawfare campaign' by left-wing climate activists aimed at influencing thousands of judges on how to approach climate litigation.” 6:05pm- Prior to Monday's multilateral meeting at the White House, President Donald Trump was caught on a hot mic telling Emmanuel Macron: “I think [Vladimir Putin] wants to make a deal for me, you understand that? As crazy as it sounds.” 6:30pm- In a post to Truth Soc ...
