Podcasts about mar a lago

Just days into 2026, Mary and Andrew dive into a fresh slate of legal questions brought on by the United States' surprise extraction of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro and his wife to New York to face criminal charges. Unpacking why the operation is widely viewed as illegal in both Venezuela and here at home, they focus on the Trump administration's pattern of self-excusing questionable tactics under the banner of fighting crime and drug smuggling. Next, as the fifth anniversary of the January 6th insurrection approaches, Mary previews her upcoming testimony in front of House Democrats on the impact the broad swath of pardons for J6 convictions has had, before the co-hosts review Jack Smith's now public deposition before the House Judiciary Committee. Last, Mary and Andrew turn to the newly unsealed order in the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case, in which the judge believes DOJ officials may have pushed to prosecute him only after he was wrongly deported to El Salvador.Further reading:Former Special Counsel Jack Smith's testimony transcript is HERE,  the video is HEREHERE is Judge Gary R. Brown's ruling from 12/18 on the awful conditions in an ICE detention facility in Long Island, NY.

Today's Headlines: Looks like there's no easing into this new year. Trump dramatically escalated his Venezuela fixation this weekend, launching major strikes in Caracas and having Nicolás Maduro pulled from his home and flown to federal detention in Brooklyn. Maduro was re-indicted on familiar narcotrafficking charges, while Trump bragged that the U.S. is effectively “running Venezuela now” alongside American oil companies. But instead of installing Trump's preferred opposition figure, Venezuela's Supreme Court tapped Maduro's vice president Delcy Rodríguez as interim leader. Before all that, the U.S. had spent weeks chasing a Venezuela-bound oil tanker — until Russia swooped in on New Year's Eve, added it to its registry, and painted a Russian flag on the side to shield it from seizure. Trump also hosted President Zelensky at Mar-a-Lago with Stephen Miller, Jared Kushner, and Pete Hegseth, claiming “progress” while simultaneously echoing outrage on Putin's behalf after a friendly call with him. Abroad, Switzerland's army chief warned the country couldn't withstand a major attack, protests in Iran turned deadly as Trump threatened to “intervene,” and Trump ordered Christmas Day strikes on ISIS militants in Nigeria. On the home front, Trump froze all childcare payments nationwide after citing a Minnesota welfare fraud case involving a small group of Somali immigrants — while simultaneously moving to garnish wages from millions of student loan borrowers in default starting in January. One notable check on his power: the Supreme Court ruled 6–3 against his National Guard deployments to several U.S. cities. Meanwhile, the newly released Jack Smith testimony says he had evidence Trump committed multiple felonies that could rise to treason before his cases were shut down — and the massive Epstein document dump is already under scrutiny for delays, missing records, and questionable redactions, including internal DOJ emails noting Trump flew on Epstein's plane more than previously known.

In the early hours of this morning, US President Donald Trump gave the order for the Pentagon to bomb Venezuela's capital Caracas and capture Venezuelan leader Nicolas Maduro, along with his wife. Trump has just given a press conference in Mar-A Lago sharing fresh details. In this emergency bonus episode of Battle Lines, Venetia is joined by The Telegraph's Chief US Correspondent Rob Crilly to cover everything we know so far about how it all unfolded, why Trump has done this, and what might happen next.

Vi er nok ikke de eneste, der efterhånden har vænnet os til at lade det gå ind ad det ene øre og ud igen af det andet, når der igen igen bliver talt om, at der nu måske er taget et vigtigt skridt i retning af fred i Ukraine. For den krig, som Donald Trump – før han blev præsident - lovede at afslutte på en enkelt dag, har han jo som præsident været ude af stand til at få skabt så meget som en uges våbenhvile i – i løbet af hele 2025. Men så midt imellem jul og nytår skete der pludselig noget. Igen havde den ukrainske præsident Volodymyr Zelenskyj og Donald Trump sat sig sammen. Og denne her gang havde de begge givet sig på afgørende punkter, forlød det. Men hvad er det egentlig, vi er vidner til? Og som vi kalder fredsforhandlinger. Går øvelsen lige nu i virkeligheden bare ud på ikke at være den, der påkalder sig Donald Trumps vrede? Og hvad er det så, vi venter på? Altså: hvad er det, der skal ske, for at Vladimir Putin hellere vil slutte fred end at fortsætte krigen? Det spørger vi i dagens ’Du lytter til Politiken’ Michael Jarlner, der er Politikens internationale kommentator, om.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A bombshell new report claims that Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago club in Florida sent women to Jeffrey Epstein's home for years, allegedly to give him massages. The women that were sent to Epstein's home warned others about his dangerous behavior, so if this story is accurate, that means there's little to no chance that Mar-a-Lago didn't know exactly what was going on. This week, Donald Trump vetoed a bipartisan bill that would have created a pipeline to deliver clean drinking water to more than 50,000 Colorado residents. This didn't sit well with longtime Trump ally Lauren Boebert - a representative from Colorado - and she tore into the President, accusing him of vetoing the pipeline out of anger over her insistence on releasing the Epstein Files. There are a couple other reasons this likely happened, but Boebert's vote on the files certainly played a role. During a segment on Newsmax this week, Kari Lake demanded that the Department of Justice go after Donald Trump's political enemies - as if they haven't been trying, and failing, at doing that for the past year. Lake went totally off the rails in the segment, reminding everyone that she might be the most mentally unstable member of the Trump administration, even though she remains one of the most irrelevant members of the administration. MAGA fanatics who forked out $500 for a tacky "Trump Phone" nearly a year ago are going to have to wait even longer for their garbage to arrive, as the Trump Organization announced that the phones were being delayed AGAIN. This isn't the first time that the company has failed to deliver at their promised deadline, as they have pushed back the release multiple times in just the last few months. There's a chance the phones never arrive at all, and MAGA will just have to come to terms with the fact that they keep falling for such obvious swindles.Republican lawmakers know that 2026 is probably going to be a very bad year for them, and they have just one request of Donald Trump: Don't make it worse! Unfortunately, Trump isn't capable of doing that, and Republicans in Congress have now lost faith with Trump because they view him as far too "out of touch." It isn't just that he can't or won't work on economic issues, it is that he won't stop the stupid vanity projects that are angering the public while going out on tour and bragging about how great he is.The Democratic Party ended 2025 with another massive victory in an area of the country that they typically can't win in. This particular win happened in an election in Iowa, where Democrat Renee Hardman pulled off a stunning victory to prevent Republicans in the state from having a supermajority in the Senate. This is more proof that the Trump Effect is real, and voters are turning against Trump and the Republican Party in ways we couldn't have expected a year ago.Text and and let us know your thoughts on today's stories!Subscribe to our YouTube channel to stay up to date on all of Farron's content: https://www.youtube.com/FarronBalancedFollow Farron on social media!

Everywhere you turn and everywhere you look, everything just seems off, really, really off. We are told that America is right now in a ‘Golden Age' never before seen in our 250 year history, and not only is that not true, it's an out-and-out lie, yet a very large sector of our country believe it. We are told America only wants peace, yet we watch as a ramp-up to war takes place around the clock. What's going on? Is this mass hypnosis, is it mind control, what is it? Hey, Habakkuk, what sayest thou?“Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you.” Habakkuk 1:5 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, over at Mar-a-Lago on New Year's Eve, people watched as a female artist live-painted a ‘Jesus painting', but it wasn't the Jesus of the Bible. This Jesus had a decidedly Roman Catholic feel, with piercing blue eyes, swirling in a sea of dark colors, and looking for all the world like a portrayal of Antichrist. The assembled crowd cheered as it was auctioned off for $3 million dollars to a Catholic charity. Over in New York City, deep in an underground abandoned subway tunnel, the new Socialist Muslim mayor was sworn in on a Qu'ran. To me, this completely sets the tone for what we might expect to see in 2026. Elsewhere, Trump is launching 6G to connect with human implantable devices, renaming all sorts of pre-existing buildings after himself, and preparing to build the Arch Du Trump in Washington. Elon Musk says 2026 will be the year that his Neuralink brain chips really take off, and Islam is positioned for a level of control this country has never seen before. As if all that wasn't bad enough, Turning Point USA, whom we showed you with our end of year Podcast in 2025 to be a hotbed of demons and devils, is launching a plan to bring their One World Religion to every church in America. This isn't Satan's ‘little season' we are watching, this is the big show. Today we invite you to join us as we lift up the end times rock to see what's crawling underneath it. It won't be a pretty sight, but it'll be the Truth, and we promise it will be a blessing to you here in 2026.

In the first episode of 2026, Roger Moorhouse and Patrick Bishop look back on a bizarre and momentous year of conflict. The hosts begin by reflecting on the breakdown of international cooperation, noting how Russia has moved from sensitive joint enterprises, like decommissioning nuclear power submarines, to living on the "dark side of the moon" diplomatically and economically. The centre of this week's discussion is the surreal meeting between President Zelensky and Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago. Patrick and Roger dissect the "Olympic levels of restraint" shown by Zelensky as Trump claimed Putin was "generous" in his feelings toward Ukraine. They explore the 20-point peace plan being sketched out by American and Ukrainian officials and why, despite Trump's optimism, the Kremlin remains unlikely to accept any deal that recognises a sovereign Ukraine. Finally, the hosts look at the changing face of the front line, where the introduction of long-range "FPV" drones—now capable of striking targets up to 50 or even 100 kilometres away—is creating a lethal "grey zone" that redefines modern manoeuvre warfare.

On Wednesday's Mark Levin Show, we bring you the best of Mark Levin. We need to become interested in the founding of America because there are those who are telling us how awful America is. We need to trigger a deeper interest in our history. It's good to learn some of the men who signed your Constitution aren't very well know, such as Rufus King, John Langdon and Jonathan Dayton. Also, it was only a matter of time before Stephen A Smith came under attack for being an independent thinker. Smith will not be intimidated by anyone, especially Stephen Jackson. Afterward, President Trump has never flinched in his support for the state of Israel, and he's very concerned about the antisemitism taking place in the U.S. and around the world. But there are some Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes types who say they're done with Trump because he's Israel first. These people are trying to destroy MAGA, the Republican party and the Trump presidency. We won't let that happen. In addition , you're not hearing any condemnation from the Palestinian world on the Australia terror attack because it's considered an accomplishment. This kind of slaughter is encouraged there and it's not just against Jews; they are targeting the entire West. Finally, documents reveal that the FBI's Washington Field Office doubted probable cause for the Mar-A-Lago search warrant and preferred negotiating with Trump's lawyer to resolve the issue amicably, noting Trump's potentially strong legal arguments on the documents. However, Merrick Garland and his Department of Justice overruled these concerns, insisting on the raid despite the FBI's reservations about its necessity and professionalism.

The Wall Street Journal published an exclusive account revealing what it says was the specific incident that led Donald Trump to ban Jeffrey Epstein from Mar-a-Lago's spa in 2003. According to the report, Mar-a-Lago had been sending spa employees to provide services at Epstein's nearby Palm Beach mansion for years, even as staff privately warned one another about Epstein's increasingly inappropriate behavior. The practice continued until an 18-year-old beautician returned from a house call and reported that Epstein had pressured her for sex; a manager then sent Trump a fax about the allegation, and Trump responded by ordering Epstein banned from the club's spa. The Journal's account also notes that Epstein wasn't a formal club member yet was treated “like one” on Trump's instruction.The report situates that episode as the first clear break in Trump and Epstein's relationship, though the two continued to be seen together socially for a time afterward. Mar-a-Lago staffers told the WSJ that Epstein's companion Ghislaine Maxwell regularly coordinated the spa visits — including recruiting young employees — and that concerns about Epstein's conduct were known internally before the 2003 complaint. Trump's current White House has disparaged the WSJ story as politically motivated, with spokespeople saying he acted appropriately in banning Epstein for alleged misconduct toward employees.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:New report digs in on details of the incident that reportedly caused Trump to ban Epstein from Mar-a-Lago | The Independent

On today's podcast:1) President Trump said he made “a lot of progress” in talks with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy over a possible peace deal, but that it might take a few weeks to get it done and there’s no set timeline. The pair met at the US president’s Mar-a-Lago resort Sunday, where they had lunch and later spoke on the phone with a group of European leaders to brief them on their progress. Among the major sticking points left to be resolved: the future of Ukraine’s Donbas region, which is partially occupied by Russian forces. Trump told reporters the issue was still unresolved, but “getting a lot closer.”2) President Trump has another high profile meeting on the docket at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida. He is scheduled to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu this afternoon. The two aim to boost a U.S.-brokered ceasefire in Gaza, which faces challenges as it looks to move into a more complicated second phase. That phase involves rebuilding Gaza under international supervision, creating an international security force and normalizing relations between Israel and the Arab world.3) China kicked off military maneuvers around Taiwan that will include live-fire drills, a move that comes after the US announced one of its biggest arms packages ever for the self-run democracy. The exercises starting Monday would involve the army, navy, air force and Rocket Force, the Chinese military said in a statement. The exercises named “Justice Mission-2025” would “test the actual combat capability of theater troops in joint operations.” The People’s Liberation Army said in a separate statement that from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday it would hold live-fire exercises in five blocks around Taiwan, saying “any irrelevant vessel or aircraft is advised not to enter” the area.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Michael Wolff joins Joanna Coles to peel back what Christmas looks like inside Donald Trump's carefully staged world at Mar-a-Lago — a holiday less about family and warmth than performance, attention, and control. From the bored, rope-off table at the center of the patio to Trump's late-night torrent of Truth Social posts, Wolff maps how even Christmas becomes another arena for validation. They examine Melania's rare flash of animation beside her father, the eerie surge of hyper-religious messaging from Trump-world, and the rituals that feel rehearsed rather than heartfelt. As the conversation widens, they trace how sagging TV ratings, Hollywood power plays, and proximity to Trump himself still dictate the action around him. Hosted on Acast.

The highly anticipated release of the Epstein files dropped last Friday with a muted thump, as redactions were abundant and files were held back. Mary and Andrew begin there, with the Justice Department's failure to comply with the “Epstein Files Transparency Act”, a congressional law compelling the release of "all unclassified records" with a few exceptions. They break down what the law requires, why the DOJ's redactions raise some concerns, and what new revelations surfaced around Jeffrey Epstein's 2008 plea deal. Turning to several federal cases on their radar, the co-hosts unpack the news that prosecutors had tried but failed to add a third felony charge against Letitia James and the split jury verdict of Wisconsin state court Judge Hannah Dugan. And before wrapping up, Mary and Andrew examine a unanimous DC Circuit decision allowing the National Guard deployment in the city to proceed, emphasizing D.C.'s unique non-state status.Further reading: Read DC Circuit Panel Decision on National Guard deployment HEREAnd a note to our listeners: As Mary and Andrew mentioned, they plan to record a new episode next Tuesday if the news warrants it. Otherwise, they'll take some time to enjoy the holiday season and will be back with a new episode on January 6th.
