Last week Fox News attempted to revive long since dead horrors for its audience - the COVID-19 pandemic, outrage over a transgender athlete scandal that did NOT include a transgender athlete and commies, commies and more commies.In late June the Supreme Court ruled that states were allowed to ban transgender athletes from K-12 and colligate sports programs for women and girls. This essentially barred transgender athletes from competing in women and girls' sports in 29 states.The U.S. Olympic and Paralympic committee announced last July that it would ban transgender women from competing. Several other sports leagues followed suit including the International Cycling Union, World Aquatics, World Boxing Organization, World Athletics Council, and the National Athletics Council (NCAA).Although the issue of transgender women and girls competing in women's athletic competitions is not completely settled the SCOTUS case and athletic league bans have greatly reduced the likelihood of transgender women and girls dominating women's sports.Sophie Cunningham, a WNBA player, voiced support for barring transgender girls in an ESPN article in late July. Fox News acted as if Cunningham was the Rosa Parks of women's basketball.After the article was published Cunningham wasn't fired or disciplined. An Adidas shoe she sponsored sold out in nearly 24 hours. She was praised and criticized for her statement with dueling protesters at some of her games.Cunningham is entitled to her opinion of course, but the hysteria seemed displaced as there is no transgender athlete in the WNBA. Even before the SCOTUS ruling and other athletic league bans transgender athletes made up less than less than 0.002% (10/500,000) of US college athletes, and even fewer of recent Olympians (0.001%) identified as trans.The hype and hysteria surrounding the Cunningham story is peak Fox News. The network knows that the bigotry and hatred of transgender people will keep its viewers interested in its programming while it ignores things like the affordability crisis, the war in Iran and the DOJ's many efforts to coverup everything related to Jeffrey Epstein.While the network whipped its audience into a frenzy about an imagined transgender takeover of the WNBA the network revived other cultural issue zombies such as rehashing disinformation about the COVID-19 pandemic and the new red scare.One of the more amusing moments last week happened when Fox News immediately distanced itself from a story involving its former host Jeanine Pirro, U.S. attorney for the District of Columbia.In a 20-page court filing, Pirro's office wrote that the damage to the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool was the result of a “botched” renovation – “not vandalism”. Her office dropped criminal charges on four people connected to incidents involving the tourist attraction.President Trump was outraged insisting there was ‘tremendous vandalism' at the site. Fox News did absolutely nothing to support its former host. The network did not acknowledge how it supported Trump's false claims with surveillance footage that showed no criminal activity.

August 10, 2026.In this broadcast, host Tim Ozman announces the expansion of “Realville,” a conceptual and intellectual settlement designed to confront the “controlled opposition” within the truth community. Ozman argues that mainstream news and alternative conspiracy theories are both parts of a “bifurcated” world stage, a closed informational system designed to keep the public in a state of fear or “mind war”. He deconstructs the concept of the “Metascript,” identifying government officials and entertainment directors as the architects of simulated events like 9/11 and the JFK assassination. The program emphasizes a shift from “belief systems” to “media Gnosticism,” where individuals use pattern recognition to identify engineered coincidences and predictive programming in popular media.10 Topics of Discussion* The Growth of Realville: Establishing a “colony” in Trutherville to directly confront “useful stooges” and “propaganda mules”.* The “Bloody Guardrail”: A term for the psychological inability of most “truthers” to entertain the idea that nobody died in major media events.* Conspiracy Theories as PSYOPs: The assertion that spreading fear-based alternative narratives is actually a form of psychological warfare.* The “Woketown” vs. “Trutherville” Duopoly: How the media divides the public into two extreme subsets that both operate within a closed informational system.* 9/11 “Hoax-aversary”: Plans to deconstruct the 2001 events through the lens of concurrent drills and CGI “video composite overlays”.* Metascriptors: Identifying figures like James Comey, Don DeLillo, and Christopher Nolan as individuals who seed future narratives into the public consciousness.* The 8647 Pattern: Analyzing the numerical link between James Comey's book release, seashell photos, and a vandalism event at the Lincoln Memorial.* The NASA “Mind Control” Budget: The theory that the space program's true purpose is to “program the space between your ears” rather than physical travel.* Subterranean Civilizations and Hyperloop: Speculation that modern tech like Elon Musk's Hyperloop is preparing the public for simulated space travel in underground bases.* Realville as a “Wood Chipper”: Using a predictable schedule and deprogramming courses to create a “marketplace disruption” and mass defection from controlled media.10 Key Quotes* “If you reach Alex Jonestown, you've gone a little too far.”* “Strategically... It doesn't make sense to kill people during the creation of propaganda films.”* “Every time you come in here and [tell] us to be afraid... you're in fact waging sciwar against us.”* “The beginning of wisdom... is to call things by their right names.”* “There are no false flags. Nobody's dying.”* “Truthers are like 20 years behind.”* “Belief is based on low information. Skepticism is high information.”* “The purpose of the space program is to program the space between your ears.”* “Resistance is futile... what are you going to do? ...mentally step outside of their system.”* “If you can't describe the architecture of the Truman Show, you're still in it.”Host Reading Audience Comments* Reading Dr. Bass Ackwards: “The government are just... Other people have changed their names wearing government costumes.”* Reading Armin: “The world stage offers each and everyone's own worst nightmare fantasy.”* Reading Truth Hurts: “...there's a new movie coming out called The Dog Stars, post-apocalyptic genre directed by Ridley Scott.”* Reading Plane: “If you start a new channel, will they demonetize it?”* Reading Suzanne Ann: “Michael Hoffman believes the moon landings were real.”You can also now find IPS on the following Podcast platforms:APPLE:SPOTIFY:YT MUSIC: This is a public episode.

Bill welcomes back American Enterprise Institute emeritus scholar Norm Ornstein to assess Congress, Speaker Mike Johnson, and President Trump. Ornstein calls this the worst Congress ever, citing little constructive legislation beyond a Reconciliation bill that delays major Medicaid cuts until after the midterms, lack of oversight, and a Senate that offers only “rubber-stamp” consent, including confirming Todd Blanche as Attorney General. He argues Johnson is effectively “speaker of Donald Trump” and criticizes Democratic leaders for failing to project a coherent daily message despite strong individual members. Ornstein and Press discuss Republican senators backing Blanche despite Trump's attacks, which Ornstein attributes to moral cowardice and a party functioning like a cult. They also cover Trump's mishandling of Lincoln Memorial's Reflecting Pool repairs, no-bid contracting and bogus vandalism prosecutions, legal battles over Trump's White House construction projects, and Rand Paul's McCarthy-like pursuit of Anthony Fauci.Today Bill highlights the work of The Constitutional Accountability Center.

On our political radar this week… ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ In multiple battles on election day, some candidates won despite being heavily outspent. The list includes Abdul El-Sayed prevailing over Haley Stevens' $60-million campaign GOP Gubernatorial candidate Perry Johnson seeing another $30-million of his personal fortune disappear in his loss to John James Multi-millionaire Congressman Shri Thanedar outspending state Representative Donavan McKinney 17-to-1 … and losing Mid-Michigan activist William Lawrence being outspent 3-to-1 by both of his opponents who split the vote sufficiently to let Lawrence slip through with 44% of the vote. The general election is 89 days away…with early voting beginning in just over a month. The war of words is well underway with Republicans already branding all Democrats as communists, socialists and/or wussie Woke anti-police bed-wetting pro-criminal vegans. Donald Trump took a break from his never-ending golf vacation to launch a couple more grifts – selling insider information through his Truth Social scam, bamboozling two gullible U.S. Senators into voting to confirm his personal criminal defense attorney as Attorney General, reinforcing his one-of-a-kind immunity from paying all the taxes he owes, and issuing still another “two days” prediction for his endless Iran War. Meanwhile, the Trump government continues its manifestly incompetent management of the federal government. The explosive diarrhea is becoming a national epidemic as Robert F. Kennedy Jr. proves once again he doesn't know what the fuck he's doing, even as Trump's apologists in the Senate try to shift blame for the last pandemic onto Dr. Anthony Fauci. One of his onetime favorite former Fox News shouters may get the boot. Jeanine Pirro had to admit in court that Trump screwed up when he gave a no-bid contract to his pool guy for the Reflecting Pool restoration – it wasn't vandals, it was shoddy work. The master builder is also starting over again on the White House helicopter pad after suddenly discovering that the White House lawn isn't flat. And he's unveiled the new gold-leaf encrusted statues at the Lincoln Memorial which just adds to the misery of the diarrhea epidemic.  The most entertaining race of this cycle was the Republican primary in the 8th congressional district. Donald Trump endorsed Amir Hassan, which prompted Thomas Smith to withdraw from the race…but still won overwhelmingly.  We start with the U.S. Senate race. It was much closer than most of the polls predicted. (A tip of the hat, by the way, to EPIC-MRA which correctly showed a very tight contest.) The big question: can Democrats unite, and then attract a majority of independents, to beat an admittedly tough opponent in Mike Rogers? © Clay Jones – https://claytoonz.substack.com Subscribe to our YouTube channel ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Republic, If You Can Keep It is supported by

Doug and Justin open with a question that immediately goes somewhere real: what is an unwritten rule of modern etiquette that you actively choose to ignore because it makes zero logical sense? Doug's answer is immediate and unapologetic. Three months salary for an engagement ring is a number a diamond company invented and everyone just accepted it. From there the conversation spirals into a full-scale examination of wedding culture that is equal parts frustrated and fair. From there the guys shift into movie talk. Doug gives his take on Spider-Man Brand New Day, then goes deep on Curry Barker's horror hit Obsession, currently streaming on Peacock, and the WWII weathermen drama Pressure starring Brendan Fraser and Andrew Scott. That leads into a comparison with other WWII films including Hacksaw Ridge and Fury. Then: the Urban Dictionary game returns for another round. This episode's terms include Chud Run, Industrial Strip, Lincoln Memorial, Big Jebediah Doink, and Birdbath. Justin's definitions are wrong in the most creative ways possible. Doug censors himself for the first time in 548 episodes while trying to string them all into a sentence. History is made. A tribute to Glenn Hansard, Irish musician and busker who passed away at 56 in a motorcycle accident. Justin shares what his music meant to him personally and why the world lost something genuinely good. This week's recommendations: Justin: Glenn Hansard. Go listen to his catalog. Any of it. As a thank you for the music and as an introduction if you have never heard him before. Doug: No Pressure. Pop punk band recommended by Austin Reno. Their LP NP Style is 10 songs and 21 minutes of exactly what you need. Reminds Doug of early Blink-182. Check it out wherever you stream music.

Michigan Primary Fallout, Mamdani Grocery ID Claim Debunked, and Spain's Ceuta/Melilla Migration Surge Dan Griffin and Corey Walsh open with Dan recapping a recent Radical Independent roundtable, then correct a claim about Zohran Mamdani requiring IDs at proposed NYC city-run grocery stores, explaining the “library card-esque” idea was raised to prevent bulk resale of discounted staples. They discuss a viral Trump golf shot video and whether it shows an AI-like frame shift, and cover dropped DOJ charges in the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool “vandalism” case after renovation defects were found. The main segment focuses on Michigan's Democratic primary where Abdul El-Sayed defeats Haley Stevens despite being heavily outspent, with hosts framing the race around AIPAC/foreign influence, media “Islamist” fearmongering, polling misses, and Mike Rogers ads tying El-Sayed to Hasan Piker's “America deserved 9/11” remark; they also cite Dearborn results. They then speculate on Spain's Ceuta/Melilla migrant surge as politically driven after a court ruling and possible Moroccan non-enforcement, and close with discussion of claims that community notes can be botted amid disputes over a Marco Rubio clip. 00:00 Welcome and Banter 00:52 Fried Brain and Panel Recap 03:04 Tonight's Agenda Setup 03:29 Mamdani Grocery ID Claim 06:44 Pirate Trophy Detour 09:07 Trump Golf Shot Breakdown 13:06 Reflecting Pool Charges Dropped 16:16 Michigan Primary Begins 19:36 Why Root for El-Sayed 24:44 Islamist Smear and Hasan Piker 28:48 Bernie on Cancel Culture 32:00 Haley Stevens Israel Clip 34:34 Money Influence and Rigging Claims 36:48 Wayne County Reality Check 38:37 Dearborn Vote Breakdown 39:25 Fraud Talk and Late Ballots 41:11 Cousin Marriage Rabbit Hole 43:38 Media Panic Over Abdul 44:31 Why Polls Missed Badly 46:55 Islamophobia vs Socialism 48:13 Mike Rogers Attack Ad 52:55 Spain Migrant Surge Theory 01:01:44 Community Notes and AI Claims 01:07:32 Unconventional Iran Pressure Jokes 01:15:05 Sign Off and Plugs

The first ticket on Mary and Andrew's agenda: the latest on Todd Blanche's confirmation. After prodding from two Republican Senators, Blanche released a Sunday night statement allegedly rescinding the $1.776 “Anti-Weaponization Fund” to pacify their concerns. And by all measures, it worked. But in Andrew's estimation, the statement was “the world's smallest fig leaf,” with both hosts noting that the “settlement agreement” can only be changed in writing if signed by both parties. Mary calls it “basically a press statement” rather than a legal order. Then, they turn to former FBI Director James Comey's filing of multiple motions to dismiss his “Seashell” indictment, including one on the grounds of vindictive and selective prosecution. They detail court filings that show an array of issues with the case, including surveillance of him and his wife by the Secret Service. Next, Andrew and Mary detail why Jeanine Pirro's Reflecting Pool case against Olympian David Hearn fell apart, after a disastrous rush to charge before the facts were in. And last up: Trump asks the Supreme Court to hear an appeal over E. Jean Caroll's $83.3 million defamation verdict.

Donald Trump continues to lash out over the damage to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. The US President's turned his attack on Attorney for Washington DC Jeanine Pirro – claiming she choked and folded like an umbrella in moving to drop charges over the pool's restoration. After initially charging four people with vandalism, the Justice Department found damage to the $14 million lining instead came from a flawed, rushed contractor installation. US correspondent Richard Arnold told Mike Hosking the damage was due to the incompetence of Trump's "pool guy" from Florida. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Die drama rondom die Lincoln Memorial-weerkaatsende poel het Vrydag 'n belangrike keerpunt bereik toe die Departement van Justisie 'n mosie ingedien het om alle kriminele aanklagte teen die 67-jarige voormalige Amerikaanse Olimpiese kanovaarder David Hearn te laat vaar. Maar president Donald Trump is onbeïndruk en hou vol dit handel oor vandalisme. Kommentators meen die prokureur vir die Distrik van Columbia Jeanine Pirro, wat die klagtes teruggetrek het, moet nou kommer oor haar pos hê. Amerikaanse politieke ontleder Ron Brownstein het 'n ander mening.

The contrast is the whole story. Trump had repeatedly claimed he possessed photos and video of a 350-foot gash being cut into the pool, and Interior Secretary Doug Burgum echoed that proof existed. Yet the dismissal filing attributes the damage to a defective installation that began failing almost immediately, and Hawk argues no criminal conduct occurred at all. He walks through why a prosecutor should never hold a national press conference without personally reviewing the evidence first. Hawk connects it to a broader pattern: DC grand juries declining to indict in several high-profile matters, other indictments dismissed over alleged grand jury misconduct, and federal judges increasingly wary of DOJ representations. He argues the reflecting pool collapse, like the stumbles around the Comey and James cases, reflects a Justice Department pursuing targets without the evidence to back the charges, and predicts Pirro's standing is slipping.

The government's own dismissal filing tells the story. According to the motion, it was only after the indictment that the Department of the Interior provided additional documents showing the damage to the reflecting pool stemmed from a flawed installation by a contractor rushing to finish before the America 250 celebrations, not from vandalism. The sealant had reportedly begun peeling almost immediately after the renovation. Hawk notes the filing tries to shift blame to the Interior Department, which he argues only underscores that felony charges were brought against an American without an independent investigation. Hawk sets the dismissal against Donald Trump's repeated public claims that he had photos and video of a 350-foot gash being cut into the pool, evidence never produced. He places it in a pattern of high-profile cases out of the D.C. US Attorney's office that have stumbled, and argues it reflects what happens when prosecutorial power is used to pursue targets rather than evidence.

Remember the great reflecting pool caper? David Hearn, a 67-year-old Olympic canoeist, was riding his bicycle by the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool. He was curious, he reached down into the water and felt the pealing blue pool liner. Out of the blue - Hearn promptly was arrested, and charged by Jeanine Pirro with felony destruction of property for allegedly destroying more than $1000 worth of the pool liner - a crime that could land him in prison for 10 years.Now, it seems like that case may go the way of James Comey's first criminal case - dismissed for prosecutorial impropriety before the grand jury. Or it may go the way of the Leticia James prosecution - dismissed for prosecutorial impropriety before the grand jury. Or maybe it will go the way of the recent Broadview six protester case - dismissed for prosecutorial misconduct before the grand jury.Glenn talks on Substack about the latest reporting on how a witness the prosecution presented to the grand jury - might just send the whole case down the (reflection pool) drain.

Last week the folks at Fox News seemed like the frustrated parents of a juvenile delinquent son who was caught setting his high school principal's car on fire.The network had no problem spinning measles outbreaks, the Epstein files coverup, the murder of Iranian school children, the mass pardon of cop beaters, the president's insider trading, self-dealing, foreign bribes, vanity projects, or his deference to Bibi Netanyahu and Vladimir Putin.Fox News didn't seem to care that he kept threatening the very foundations of our democracy with unconstitutional executive orders while openly defying various court rulings.The network didn't mind when high-ranking members of the Trump administration openly lied about details regarding the death of two American citizens at the hands of federal law enforcement agents.The spikes in inflation, gasoline prices and residential electricity rates weren't even speed bumps to the folks at Fox News who kept insisting the country was experiencing a new golden age of prosperity.As the Ukraine War raged on without an end in sight no one on Fox News seemed to remember Trump's promise to end it before he was sworn in for his second term.Even his deeply unpopular war of choice in the Middle East didn't cause much concern.Last Thursday their glorious leader took a step too far when he used up about a half an hour of primetime television to spin the same election lies that cost the network $787.5 million. Fox News still faces a $2 billion defamation lawsuit from Smartmatic for the lies the network knowingly promoted about the 2020 election.Trump committed the ultimate sin. He was messing with the money.Since Trump's primetime address I've noticed a subtle shift on Fox News away from the president. The network is still trying to terrify its audience about the looming threat of a communist takeover of radical Democrats.Fox News is still demonizing transgender folks and undocumented immigrants. It continues to beat the drum about the evils of diversity, equity and inclusion in American institutions.The network mocks what it calls ‘woke' celebrities while it promotes racist tropes about urban crime and the decay of western civilization. The cultural battles are never-ending while some of the shine of their populist hero is chipping off like the American Flag Blue coating on the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool.Last week I noticed a slight transition away from the usual praise for the president. It's beginning to sink in that his administration could be a catastrophe for the conservative movement and the Fox News media empire. This is a public episode.

President Donald Trump says he will not sign a bipartisan housing bill passed by Congress because the Senate has not passed a separate bill requiring proof of U.S. citizenship to vote, so the housing bill will become law without his signature at midnight tonight under the Constitution. We will talk about that and Congress returning from its holiday recess next week with Chad Pegram, Fox News Chief Congressional Correspondent (5); Calls for further investigations in the case of an ICE agent in Houston shooting and killing an undocumented immigrant and in the case of African-American teen Nolan Wells, found dead after a weekend trip with friends; New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) proposes rules to prohibit hidden fees on goods and service, what he calls junk fees; National Capital Planning Commission gives preliminary approval to President Trump's 250-foot Triumphal Arch on a traffic circle on the Virginia side of Memorial Bridge between the Lincoln Memorial and Arlington National Cemetery; United Nations Security Council holds a meeting on Iran's nuclear program, as President Trump says U.S.-Iran peace talks can continue, but the ceasefire between the countries is no longer in effect.

A report from Politico released yesterday accused Maine Democrat Senate candidate Graham Platner of sexually assaulting his ex-girlfriend. As many Democrats are now walking back their support for Platner, Glenn criticizes the mainstream Democrats who previously refused to denounce him. What is happening with Kentucky Republican Senator Mitch McConnell's health? As rumors of McConnell's declining health continue to spread, reports of his wife traveling to China at the same time are raising questions. Glenn begs for transparency as the government appears to be hiding something. Could oil drop to $40 per barrel? Glenn warns that while oil needs to get cheaper, dropping it too cheaply also has dire consequences. Glenn shares what went through his head the moment he realized he was part of the Lincoln Memorial museum. Commodity Futures Trading Commission Chairman Michael Selig joins to discuss the current state of oil prices, Bitcoin, and the difference between gambling and prediction markets. Trump's border czar, Tom Homan, joins to denounce the myth that the Trump administration doesn't care about immigrants and gives an update on the border wall.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Mary and Andrew start with a deeper dive into the Supreme Court's decision to allow the removal of Temporary Protected Status designations from over 330,000 immigrants from Haiti and Syria — a consequential ruling that affects TPS holders well beyond those who brought the case, leaving over a million people vulnerable to removal. As Andrew notes, this case was based on two claims: one being a statutory challenge that DHS didn't follow the procedures set out by Congress, and the other a constitutional equal protection claim that this TPS status removal was “motivated in part by race” — both of which were struck down 6-3. Then, a look at Trump's latest retribution efforts including the heavy sentences doled out over a protest that ended in a shooting outside the ICE Prairieland Detention Center inTexas one year ago; a felony indictment of former Olympian David Hearn for allegedly tearing part of the liner of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool; and former CIA Director John Brennan going on offense to challenge the DOJ's investigation into him. Plus, Mary and Andrew analyze the DOJ's response to a “show cause” order to unredact some of the Epstein files in a lawsuit filed by journalist Katie Phang.

Brian Karem is joined by national security expert Mark Zaid and journalism professor Nolan Higdon on Just Ask the Press to dissect a week of unprecedented political scandals, press freedom battles, and unchecked executive overreach. The panel uncovers the stark contrast of Donald Trump's McCarthy-esque Fourth of July speech targeting  communists while white nationalists march on the National Mall, leading Senator Mike Lee to push a bizarre conspiracy theory that the masked neo-Nazis were actually Antifa. The discussion shifts to blatant financial corruption, highlighting Trump's massive $2.2 billion profit windfall and his stunning admission of loving "insider trading," alongside his bizarre, thumb-on-the-scale phone call to FIFA to overturn a World Cup red card. Finally, the team shines a light on critical civil liberties under threat, exposing a quiet ICE surge rounding up 10,000 individuals over five days, the federal overreach of a ten-year felony charge for peeling paint at the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool, and the Supreme Court's devastating blow to investigative journalism by upholding an $800-a-day fine against reporter Catherine Herridge.

Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman unpack the latest defensive maneuvers by centrist Democrats. The newly formed Promise to America coalition is scrambling to block progressive momentum following primary victories by politicians like Zohran Mamdani. Freezing rents and embracing class-based politics are proving highly popular but deeply threatening to the traditional party establishment. Shifting to the judicial branch reveals an equally turbulent landscape. A recent 6-3 Supreme Court decision just dismantled a 90-year precedent regarding the executive branch. The ruling allows the president to fire independent regulators at will while conveniently carving out a protective exemption for the Federal Reserve. This stark contrast exposes the underlying economic incentives shaping our current legal framework. Our co-hosts wrap up with a sobering look ahead at the nation's 250th anniversary. Decrepit conditions at the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool serve as a grim metaphor for an ongoing existential crisis. Rather than a grand celebration of independence, the crumbling infrastructure perfectly mirrors the current state of the American experiment.

Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles unpack another extraordinary week inside Donald Trump's presidency, from a major Supreme Court victory that could dramatically expand presidential power to the increasingly blurred line between church and state, the political fallout from the fragile Iran ceasefire, and why Trump may once again escape the consequences of a foreign policy setback. They also dig into the mystery surrounding Natalie Harp, Trump's fiercely devoted "human printer," as new reporting catches up with revelations first explored by Wolff, examine why the New York Times is only now embracing the idea that Trump governs through obsession rather than strategy, debate Trump's latest fixation with the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool, and reveal the strange political calculations behind JD Vance's Nixon comparisons.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.politix.fmDonald Trump, in his haste and corruption, has wrecked the historic reflecting pool that spans the Washington Monument and Lincoln Memorial.In this episode, Matt and Brian discuss:* How this lazy and corrupt endeavor went to shit so quickly;* Why it serves as a useful metaphor for Trump's Iran war, and just about every initiative he's undertaken autocratically;* Whether this should also be a cautionary tale for Abundists, who often see the appeal of sweeping aside red tape and process to Get Things Done Fast.Then, Brian briefly ventures into amateur architecture and engineering with some proposals for fixing the reflecting pool for all time. (Surely no one's thought of THIS before!) But we mostly assess the damage done by Jewish-American Iran hawks, via their effort to make Israel an appendage of the GOP (currently controlled by a corrupt con artist) and steer the U.S. into a losing war. Will they ever reflect on the harm they've caused? Is schadenfreude the order of the day? Or is that just whistling past the graveyard? And are there lessons here for leftists who are now tempted to make common cause with Trump against Israel?Answers are available in full to paid subscribers—just upgrade your subscription and pipe full episodes directly to your favorite podcast app via your own private feed.Further reading:* Brian on the self-righteous, right-wing American Jews who were being cavalier with Jewish lives all along. * Matt on how Trump's (autocratic) war on state capacity is coming home to roost.* Brian again, on how Trump switching sides in the war he lost doesn't make him a Palestinian liberationist. * Matt, again, on how Trump's “reflecting pool” foreign policy is “violent and cynical and bad.”

An American Olympic canoeist just got arrested for allegedly vandalizing the historic Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool! Pat Gray breaks down the shocking details: David Hearn, a U.S. Olympian, is accused of jumping into the newly renovated reflecting pool and causing damage. President Trump is calling it out, exposing how vandals are destroying these national treasures. This isn't just random vandalism — it's another disturbing example of Trump derangement syndrome fueling attacks on American history, patriotism, and everything that makes this country great. While conservatives fight to protect our monuments and heritage, the radical Left continues its unhinged assault. But that's not all — this episode is loaded: Tulsi Gabbard drops bombshell facts on Dr. Fauci. Strait of Hormuz chaos update: open, close, open (the latest Middle East madness). Trump on Israel + his “I'm the boss” moment at the G7 meeting. "Toy Story 5" record-breaking box office domination.  Minor league team York Revolution refuses to wear gay Pride jerseys. Comment below RIGHT NOW: Is this Olympic athlete's alleged vandalism an outright attack on America? YES or NO? Should we be cracking down much harder on monument vandals? And who is really to blame for the destruction of our national symbols?

- The episode opens by mocking anti-Trump activists who rally in support of algae at the Lincoln Memorial reflecting pool, using the stunt to argue that media and Democrats now oppose even basic efforts to clean up and celebrate the country. - A major focus is the total media blackout around the U.K. grooming-gang inquiry, with the show blasting major American and British outlets for refusing to seriously cover the systematic rape and abuse of 250,000 British girls by Pakistani Muslim gangs. - The show also hammers the media for ignoring Tulsi Gabbard's Fauci bombshell, arguing that new documents expose Anthony Fauci's role in gain-of-function funding, COVID deception, intelligence manipulation, and the broader pandemic cover-up. - Keir Starmer's resignation is framed as another case of collapse driven by truth breaking through online, with the episode arguing that X and Elon Musk helped expose the scandals Starmer and establishment media could no longer contain. - Chicago's weekend violence becomes the closing flashpoint, with the show pointing to 40 people shot and 7 killed as proof that Democratic leadership keeps tolerating urban lawlessness while refusing the kind of intervention that could actually restore order.

The Strait of Hormuz remains a flashpoint in the fragile U.S.-Iran peace process. The Wall Street Journal’s Jason Douglas explains how Iran's use of the Strait as a bargaining chip follows a long playbook of countries weaponizing economic chokepoints. After $14 million in repairs and a fresh coat of paint, the Lincoln Memorial’s Reflecting Pool turned green with algae and the paint is peeling off in chunks.

CBS News reports on how officials are warning that things could get worse. Plus, a severe heat wave hit Europe, why 2 million students in India had to retake their medical-school entrance exam, and how World Cup visitors are discovering the joys of free ice, bottomless refills, and Texas barbecue.
