First Lady of the United States
POPULARITY
Categories
Another major first time move in the most powerful group on Earth. First lady Melania Trump has taken the gavel at the UN Security Council and ended a 70 year precedent. It's strategic visibility. America doesn't act restrained or pretend. The highest expression of power is dominance with grace. Speak softly, and always with that stick. Unseen and unfunded agendas often involve children. Symbols become precedents. Then precedents become the new normal. Defining leadership is a new ball game today. Dominance without humiliation. Nobody is talking about nukes. Internal data base leaks are deliberate by federal employees. Pray for all the people losing their lives. The UFO show is coming up. The zoomies are getting very bold. The Texas elections seem spotty. Some book deal instructions. Read your Bible to learn this. Karma is not always a pleasant teacher.
Today's Headlines: The first 2026 primaries are done. In North Carolina, Democrat Roy Cooper and Republican Michael Whatley advanced to face off for retiring Sen. Thom Tillis' seat. In Arkansas, Sen. Tom Cotton cruised to renomination, while Democrat Hallie Shoffner won with 77%. Texas was a little more dramatic. After historic turnout, a Dallas judge extended voting hours over polling confusion. Attorney General Ken Paxton — who's on the ballot — asked the Texas Supreme Court to block it, and the court agreed. Paxton now heads to a GOP runoff with Sen. John Cornyn after neither hit 50%. Abroad, the Iran war intensified after drones struck the U.S. Embassy in Riyadh. President Donald Trump said Iran's air defenses were “knocked out” and promised “big-scale” strikes. Sen. Richard Blumenthal warned of possible “boots on the ground.” Secretary of State Marco Rubio suggested U.S. strikes were preemptive ahead of Israeli action — then tried to walk that back. Israel also hit a meeting of Iran's Council of Experts during its Supreme Leader selection. Stateside, reports say some commanders framed the war to troops as “God's divine plan.” FBI Director Kash Patel fired counterintelligence officials who had worked Trump-related cases, including Iran matters, and now faces whistleblower claims over handling of an ICE shooting investigation. DHS Secretary Kristi Noem endured a bruising hearing, with Sen. Tillis suggesting she resign. House Oversight is expanding its Epstein probe to include Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick and former Goldman Sachs counsel Kathy Ruemmler. Meanwhile, French President Emmanuel Macron announced plans to expand France's nuclear arsenal, and Melania Trump chaired a UN Security Council meeting during the U.S. presidency rotation.

Today, Trump officials brief all of Congress on what, exactly, the administration's objectives are in Iran. Until now, the Trump administration has given conflicting accounts as to why the U.S. attacked Iran on Saturday, and there are many questions members of Congress need to ask. But will they ask them, and will the answers even matter? Nicholas Wu, a congressional reporter for Semafor, explains what Congress is likely to do – and not do.And in headlines, First Lady Melania Trump presides over a United Nations Security Council meeting about protecting children in conflict, a House committee releases videos from the Clintons' Epstein testimony, and it's primary day for voters in three Southern states.Show Notes: Call Congress – 202-224-3121 Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/y4y2e9jy What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcast Follow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/ For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Sid Rosenberg emphasizes the global reach of his program while welcoming Stella Escobedo, a prominent television host and political commentator. Their conversation serves as a sharp critique of urban decay and governance, as they compare the rising crime and sanitation issues in New York City to the "zombie-like" conditions in California's major cities.

AP correspondent Ben Thomas reports Melania Trump presides over a UN Security Council meeting amid US attacks Iran. ((opens with actuality))
Topics:Our Society Is Captured: Australia Backs US–Israel Attacks on IranIn a solo “Iron Fist” rant, the host reviews what he calls an unprovoked US–Israel bombing campaign on Iran (“Operation Epic Fury”), describing hundreds of Tomahawk missiles, US aircraft and drones, and about 200 Israeli jets striking 500 sites, killing Iranian leaders including the Supreme Leader and at least 165 schoolgirls; Iran retaliates by striking Tel Aviv and targeting US bases in Gulf states. He argues Western leaders, especially Five Eyes governments and Australia's Anthony Albanese, condemn Iran's response while supporting the attacks, despite Iran being in negotiations at the time. He critiques media and political statements (Laura Tingle, Penny Wong, EU leaders), highlights an MSNBC exchange with Iran's foreign minister, and mocks a UN Security Council session chaired by Melania Trump. He frames the war as driven by the military-industrial complex, Zionists, capitalists, and propaganda, and portrays Albanese as captured by lobbying and abandoning his 2003 anti-Iraq-war stance, including repeating unproven claims about Iran-linked attacks in Australia.00:00 Solo Rant Setup01:13 Why People Accept It02:50 What Happened In Iran05:15 Negotiations And Pretexts07:42 Five Eyes Backing War14:06 Regime Change Playbook17:42 What Iranians Actually Want21:29 Media Clips And Hypocrisy28:58 Orwellian Interviews30:31 UN Security Council Farce30:44 Melania Chairs UN32:40 Melania Doc Roast34:02 Greenland And Denmark34:44 Why Attack Iran Now35:12 Four Forces Behind War38:07 Albanese In Focus38:53 World Reactions Clip41:08 Albanese Then Vs Now44:11 Claims Of Iran Attacks47:36 Greens And Critics50:34 Lobby Power And Capture54:47 Leadership And Wrap UpTo financially support the Podcast you can make:a per-episode donation via Patreon or one-off donation via credit card; orone-off or regular donations via Paypal orif you are into Cryptocurrency you can send Satoshis.

Russia is responsible for the largest “systematic child abduction operation” since World War II, according to European Union Ambassador to the U.S. Jovita Neliupšienė. “This is actually a civilization erasure, when you actually try to destroy the future of your neighboring country,” Neliupšienė says. It is estimated that more than 20,000 children have been abducted from Ukraine since Russia launched its full-scale invasion four years ago, according to the ambassador. Some of the older children who were taken are now being trained to fight for the Russian army, she explains on this week's edition of “Problematic Women.” “They will try to start to train them as little soldiers, in a way, to go through the brainwashing,” she said. First Lady Melania Trump has become an outspoken advocate for Ukraine's children and has called on Russian President Vladimir Putin to return the abducted minors. Neliupšienė joins the show to share the stories of Ukrainian children who have been abducted, and some who have been returned. She also explain why Russia is targeting a generation of young people. Also on today's show, the ambassador addresses U.S. concerns that Europe is losing its culture amid a growing migrant population that struggles to, or chooses not to, assimilate into Western culture.

Last night’s State of the Union Address was, though indirectly, in many ways largely indicative of the ‘State of our Union’; irascible, beleaguered, gaslighted, schizophrenic. Despite getting sidetracked for a bit on today’s episode, below you’ll find my extensive coverage of last night’s SOTU, including a timestamped breakdown of my live observations while watching.

Claim Rebuttal Source Rebuttal ‘$18 trillion’ in investments CNN’s Daniel Dale “…the White House’s own website said the figure for “major investment announcements” during this Trump term was “$9.7 trillion,” and even that is a major exaggeration; a detailed CNN review in [Oct 2025] found [WH counting trillions in] vague investment pledges, pledges that were about “bilateral trade” or “economic exchange” rather than investment in the US and vague statements that didn’t even rise to the level of pledges.” Low gas prices (2.30, 1.99, 1.85) CNN’s Daniel Dale According to AAA: only 2 states w/ avg < $2.50/gal; GasBuddy: 4:150k (.003%) gas stations w/ gas < $2/gal Inherited record inflation CNN’s Daniel Dale Dec, 2024 Y-O-Y inflation (CPI): 2.9% Inherited stagnant economy CNN’s Daniel Dale False (see details) Passed largest tax cuts (GBBB) in American history CNN’s Tami Luhby “It ranks seventh in terms of share of GDP since 1918, according to Chris Towner, policy director for the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, a nonpartisan watchdog group.” Biden allowed ‘11,888 murderers’ to enter US as migrants CNN’s Daniel Dale ““11,888” number is about non-citizens who entered the US not just under Biden but over the course of multiple decades, including during Trump’s own first administration.” Foreign countries are paying T47 tariffs CNN’s Daniel Dale “In an analysis released in February, officials at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York wrote, “We find that nearly 90 percent of the tariffs’ economic burden fell on U.S. firms and consumers.”…[CBO] wrote in a February report that “the net effect of tariffs is to raise U.S. consumer prices by the full portion of the cost of the tariffs borne domestically (95 percent)”…” Fraud in Minnesota CNN’s Daniel Dale “…Walz admin official said in December that they had “evidence of tens of millions of dollars in fraud to this point,” not $9[/18/19] billion…” US elections claims CNN’s Daniel Dale Disputed (see details) More Americans are working today than ever CNN’s Daniel Dale “The labor force participation rate, which measures the percentage of the population that is employed or actively looking for work, has been almost unchanged…” Ended eight wars CNN’s Daniel Dale Largely disputed (see details) Achieved no tax on Social Security CNN’s Tami Luhby Disputed, misleading (see details) Balancing the federal budget by ending fraud CNN’s Tami Luhby 2024 GAO estimate “found that [$233–521B] is lost to fraud annually. But the federal budget deficit came in at just under $1.8 trillion for the most recent fiscal year, which ended in September, according to the Treasury Department – more than triple the highest estimated fraud total.” #Contemporaneous Notes Duration: 01:47:43 (longest SOTU in history – breaking the modern record he set last year.)

Confira os destaques do Jornal da Manhã desta segunda-feira (23): O presidente do Supremo Tribunal Federal, Edson Fachin, determinou o arquivamento da ação que questionava a atuação do ministro Dias Toffoli no caso envolvendo o Banco Master. A decisão foi tomada neste sábado (21). Paralelamente, o ministro André Mendonça deverá se reunir novamente nesta semana com integrantes da Polícia Federal para discutir os próximos passos da investigação sobre supostas fraudes relacionadas à instituição financeira, que seguem em apuração. O presidente da Câmara dos Deputados, Hugo Motta (Republicanos-PB), informou que o relator da proposta de emenda à Constituição que trata do fim da escala de trabalho 6x1 será definido no início desta semana. A indicação ocorrerá na Comissão de Constituição e Justiça (CCJ), etapa considerada decisiva para a tramitação da PEC, que propõe mudanças na jornada semanal de trabalho e tem gerado amplo debate entre parlamentares, empresários e trabalhadores. Brasil e China aparecem entre os países que podem ser mais beneficiados pelas mudanças nas tarifas anunciadas pelo presidente dos Estados Unidos, Donald Trump, entre sexta-feira (20) e sábado (21). As medidas devem alterar o fluxo do comércio internacional, encarecendo produtos de alguns concorrentes e abrindo espaço para exportações brasileiras e chinesas em setores estratégicos. Agentes do Serviço Secreto dos Estados Unidos e policiais do Departamento do Xerife do Condado de Palm Beach mataram a tiros um homem armado após ele entrar ilegalmente no perímetro de segurança de Mar-a-Lago, na Flórida, na madrugada deste domingo (22). Segundo as autoridades, o suspeito, de cerca de 20 anos, invadiu a área por volta de 1h30 e foi neutralizado. O presidente Donald Trump e a primeira-dama Melania Trump não estavam no local no momento do incidente, pois se encontravam na Casa Branca. Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes, conhecido como El Mencho, fundador do Cartel Jalisco Nova Geração, morreu neste domingo (22), aos 59 anos, durante uma operação do Exército no México. Considerado o último grande narcotraficante em atividade no país, El Mencho construiu o cartel mais poderoso e violento do território mexicano por meio do confronto direto com autoridades e do uso sistemático da violência. Sua morte ocorre anos após a prisão de líderes históricos do Cartel de Sinaloa, como Joaquín Guzmán e Ismael Zambada. O governo dos Estados Unidos oferecia recompensa de US$ 15 milhões por sua captura, e especialistas o classificavam como um criminoso “violento por natureza”, que desafiava abertamente o Estado mexicano. O Governo do Brasil, por meio da Caixa, inicia nesta segunda-feira (23) a terceira etapa da liberação do vale-recarga de gás de cozinha (GLP) para beneficiários do Programa Gás do Povo. A nova fase vai contemplar cerca de 4,5 milhões de famílias em todo o país. Em entrevista ao Jornal da Manhã, o deputado federal Pedro Lupion, presidente da Frente Parlamentar Agropecuária (FPA), afirmou que o setor portuário e o agronegócio consideram ilegal a invasão indígena ao terminal da Cargill, em Santarém, no Pará, que levou o governo a suspender a licitação de dragagem no Rio Tapajós. Lupion também comentou a expectativa do agro em relação à nova tarifa de 15% anunciada pelo presidente dos EUA, Donald Trump, avaliando possíveis impactos sobre exportações brasileiras. O ex-vereador Carlos Bolsonaro (PL-RJ) afirmou neste domingo (22) que existe um “desencontro” interno no Partido Liberal e insinuou que seu pai, o ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro, estaria sendo isolado pela sigla após ter a prisão decretada.

Supreme Court strikes down President Donald Trump's global 'reciprocal' tariffs, ruling 6-3 that his use of an emergency powers law was unconstitutional because, as Chief Justice John Roberts wrote, 'The Framers did not vest any part of the taxing power in the Executive Branch.' President Trump calls the decision 'deeply disappointing' and that he is 'absolutely ashamed' of the justices who voted in the majority, but the President also says he will rely on other laws that do give him the ability to set tariffs and immediately sets a 10% global tariff; we will hear from the President & Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and talk to Vox Media's Supreme Court reporter Ian Millhiser (14); President Trump says he is considering a limited military strike on Iran if negotiations over Iran's nuclear program do not reach an acceptable agreement; Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy says tests for Commercial Driver's Licenses will from now on be given only in English; National Governors Association hears from pollster Frank Luntz at its Winter Meeting in DC; NASA says the wet dress rehearsal of the Artemis II moon mission went well; First Lady Melania Trump donates her second inaugural gown to the Smithsonian Museum of American History.

Karen Friedman Agnifilo and guest host Lisa Graves host the top-ranked law and politics podcast Legal AF and break down this week's most explosive legal and political developments at the intersection of law and democracy. From Fulton County officials calling a search warrant affidavit blatantly unconstitutional and lacking probable cause after a referral by a previously sanctioned election denier, to a sweeping TRO from Judge Rufe confronting slavery whitewashing, KFA and Lisa explain how these rulings test the limits of prosecutorial power and historical truth. They also dive into due process showdowns before Judge Xinis in the Abrego Garcia matter and Judge Boesberg over the case of 137 disappeared men, and what those orders mean for executive accountability. Finally, they tackle the political and legal fallout from Melania Trump opening a new front in federal court involving journalist Michael Wolff and revelations about her residence, before previewing the Supreme Court of the United States term's looming opinions on tariffs and other major cases.

A newly released batch of Department of Justice records from its investigation into Jeffrey Epstein includes an alleged 2002 email exchange between his longtime associate Ghislaine Maxwell and Melania Trump. The documents, made public as part of a broader disclosure ordered by Congress, show personal but limited correspondence from years before Melania married President Donald Trump. According to the records, Melania wrote to Maxwell on October 23, 2002, referencing a New York magazine story about Epstein and discussing possible travel. Epstein, a disgraced financier and registered predator, died at 66 in August 2019 while being held at New York's Metropolitan Correctional Center awaiting trial on federal trafficking charges. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said the Justice Department is releasing more than 3 million pages of records, along with more than 2,000 videos and roughly 180,000 images. The disclosure followed the Epstein Files Transparency Act, signed by Trump in 2025, which compelled the DOJ to make its investigative records public. Epstein maintained social ties with numerous prominent figures, including Trump and former President Bill Clinton, neither of whom has been charged with misconduct related to Epstein. Representative Ro Khanna raised concerns about the scope of the release, saying, "The DOJ said it identified over 6 million potentially responsive pages but is releasing only about 3.5 million after review and redactions.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
On this episode of Tales from the Attitude Era, former WWE writer Tommy Blacha and Rob Pasbani recap WWF King of the Ring 2000 from the Fleet Center in Boston. The guys discuss the marathon weekend that started with a house show at Madison Square Garden featuring a surprise appearance by Donald Trump and Melania Trump. Tommy Blacha shares what the atmosphere was like backstage during the peak of the Attitude Era and why the "home court" advantage of the Garden always brought out the best in the roster.The discussion dives deep into the tournament bracket that saw Kurt Angle ascend to the throne after a series of competitive matches against Chris Jericho and Rikishi. We break down the logic behind the early exits of Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero, and why the creative team chose a story-heavy path for the finals. Plus, we look at the polarizing main event where The Rock captured the WWF Championship by pinning Vince McMahon, and whether that finish helped or hurt the title's prestige in the long run.In this episode, we also discuss:- The logic behind the changing format of Sunday Night Heat.- The infamous Pat Patterson vs. Gerald Brisco evening gown match for the Hardcore Championship.- Edge and Christian trolling the Boston crowd with a New York Mets jersey.- Tori taking a massive powerbomb through a table at the hands of the Dudley Boyz.- Rikishi's incredible performance as the "beaten down" underdog of the tournament.- Tommy Blacha's response to Dave Meltzer's 1.75-star rating of the main event.0:00 - Intro1:10 - Memories of Donald Trump at the Garden House Show3:30 - House Shows vs. TV Tapings7:40 - Sunday Night Heat's Changing Format10:40 - The Fast Pace of the Tournament Quarterfinals12:30 - Could a Round-Robin Tournament Work in WWE?17:20 - Rikishi vs. Chris Benoit: Building the Underdog Story20:00 - Val Venis vs. Eddie Guerrero: A Rare Clean Finish23:20 - Pat Patterson and Gerald Brisco Prep for Drag27:40 - Kurt Angle vs. Chris Jericho: The Best Match of the Night?30:00 - Edge and Christian Mock Boston with the Mets Jersey32:45 - Four-Way Tag Team Elimination Match Breakdown38:00 - The Semi-Finals: Rikishi Perseveres43:20 - The Infamous Patterson vs. Brisco Evening Gown Match50:20 - Dudley Boyz vs. DX: Tables, Dumpsters, and Tori57:50 - The Finals: Kurt Angle is Crowned King1:00:00 - Main Event: The Rock Pins Vince McMahon for the Title1:01:30 - Analyzing Dave Meltzer's Harsh Review of the Finish1:08:40 - Final Thoughts and Looking Ahead to RawFollow Tales from The Attitude Era on all social mediahttp://youtube.com/@TFTAttitudeEra http://twitter.com/TFTAttitudeErahttp://instagram.com/TFTAttitudeErahttp://tiktok.com/@TFTAttitudeEra Hosted on Acast.

In this high-energy Friday edition of What's on Your Mind, host Scott Hennen cuts through the "liberal dribble" and media sensationalism surrounding the current state of America. The episode features a deep-dive Town Hall with Senator Kevin Cramer, covering the high stakes of the Iranian uprising and the "anti-cop" rhetoric fueling tension in Minnesota. The conversation shifts from global security to domestic victories, highlighting the often-ignored economic successes of the Trump administration's tax cuts. Later, Mike Lindell calls in fresh off a plane from Mar-a-Lago to discuss his 100% commitment to running for Governor of Minnesota and why the recent ICE drawdown in Minneapolis is actually a brilliant strategic move to expose political fraud. From "V-neck comforters" to the historical truth of the Confederacy, this episode is a masterclass in conservative perspective and grassroots activism. Standout Moments & Timestamps [00:01:07] – The Iran Credibility Gap Senator Kevin Cramer discusses the moral and strategic dilemma in Iran, noting that while the U.S. has the power to take out the regime's assets, the ultimate goal is supporting the Iranian people's own desire for regime change. +2 [00:03:35] – Reputation of Strength Cramer reflects on President Trump's earned reputation as a leader who takes a backseat to no one, arguing that the world is watching to see if there is a price to pay for doing wrong by America. [00:07:49] – Fact-Checking the "Gulag" Rhetoric Scott takes aim at local columnists and "Trump derangement syndrome," debunking claims that ICE is randomly "house-to-house killing" people and throwing them into gulags. +1 [00:11:13] – The Government Shutdown Myth Senator Cramer clarifies that despite media sensationalism, DHS and the Coast Guard are not shutting down, as they are essential services with ample funding. +2 [00:15:52] – Melania: The Movie Review A "number one fan" calls in to review the Melania Trump movie, praising the First Lady's "Jackie O class" and noting a specific transition scene involving Joe Biden and a bag of trash. +2 [00:22:21] – Live from Fort Bragg The show dips into live coverage of President Trump and Melania speaking to energized troops in North Carolina, celebrating the restoration of the "Fort Bragg" name. +2 [00:29:43] – History Lesson: Democrats and Slavery A listener provides a historical breakdown of the Confederacy, reminding the audience that the Southern Democrats were the architects of slavery and the Confederacy. +2 [00:32:05] – Mike Lindell: 100% All In…
Während den Corona-Lockdown-Jahren entstand ein neuer Lifestlye-Trend für heterosexuelle Frauen: Das Tradwife. Influencer*innen mit 1950er-Jahre Hausfrau-Nostalgie ließen immer mehr Menschen von einen Leben träumen, in dem sie sich vollkommen der Fürsorgearbeit widmen konnten - solange sie patriarchale Hierarchien akzeptierten und sich unterordneten. Das Tradwife unterstützte den Rechtsruck. Doch in den letzten Monaten ist wieder ein anderes rechtes Frauenideal aufgetaucht. Sie stellt sich mit Blazer und strengem Blick auf die Bühne und vor Mikrofone: Das rechte Girlboss. Sie will sich einerseits wie die Tradwives für "traditionelle" Werte einsetzen - andererseits Politik aktiv mitgestalten. Damit vermittelt sie eine Gegensätzlichkeit, die sie absichtlich nicht auflöst. Sie ist ambitioniert, ordnet sich aber den Männern unter - sie arbeitet viel und rät anderen Frauen zuhause zu bleiben. Ist das rechte Girlboss die Antwort auf eine Gesellschaftslage, wo die meisten Eltern es gar nicht schaffen, nur mit einem Einkommen zu leben? In dieser Folge diskutieren wir, was es mit dem rechten Girlboss auf sich hat.
On Thursday's Mark Levin Show, First Lady Melania Trump calls in to explain how she successfully facilitated the return of Russian and Ukrainian children to their families after they were separated because of the war. She also discusses her new movie – MELANIA, which is in theaters now. Afterward, the Democrats in the House voted against funding key components of the Department of Homeland Security, including FEMA, TSA, the Secret Service, and others, while ICE funding continues through 2027. Democrats are pushing demands that would severely hamper ICE's ability to identify, apprehend, detain, and deport illegal aliens, while granting increased protections to them. Democrats will orchestrate a propaganda campaign, with media assistance, to blame Republicans for resulting inconveniences to air travelers and disaster victims when they shut down the government. Later, several members of Congress, including Senator Mark Kelly released a video urging military personnel and intelligence community members to defy or turn against the commander-in-chief without justification. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth took action against Kelly arguing that allowing such actions to go unchecked erodes military discipline and standards. But federal judge Richard Leon for issuing a ruling that blocked the Pentagon's attempt to strip Kelly of his rank and pension, calling the decision contemptible, stupid, and an overreach. Leon should retire or leave the bench now. Finally, Don Hodel calls in to discuss his new book: Called to Serve: My Path to President Reagan's Cabinet and Beyond. Learn more about your ad choices.

Michael Wolff steps inside the chaos swirling around Trump World—from Wolff's bombshell federal lawsuit against Melania Trump, which he says could finally force sworn answers about the Trump–Epstein relationship, to the extraordinary legal fight over where the First Lady actually lives. As Wolff argues that anti-SLAPP laws may become a frontline weapon against what he calls the White House's assault on free speech, he and Daily Beast executive editor Hugh Dougherty dissect the implications of Melania's alleged full-time life in New York, her separate Trump Tower apartment, and the branding empire she's quietly building. The conversation then widens to what Wolff portrays as a second administration defined by loyalty over competence: election denier Kurt Olsen rising to oversee election security, Pam Bondi's combative Hill performance, and the bizarre El Paso airspace shutdown involving secret lasers, drone claims, and bureaucratic bedlam. Is this a White House tightening its grip—or a government spinning into incompetence so profound it can no longer explain itself? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Catch the full chaos of Jessie And Clare Stephens’ Weird Twin Shit Just Got Weirder at 5 pm TODAY. Not a subscriber yet?

We talk: Why some people say “How exciting!” at the news of twins while others go instantly grey The science vs superstition of twins having twins Miscarriage, sibling timing, and the emotional whiplash of joy and fear Collapsed ribs, reflux, and the indignity of sleeping upright Plus, there’s debate about birth-room access, grandparent maths, and whether 'weird twin shit' is now officially hereditary. It’s intimate. It’s chaotic. It’s extremely twin-coded.Remember, this is your free sample of today's subs episode. The full debrief drops for subscribers at 5pm.

"Three months ago, I made my biggest mistake and cheated on her..." These were the words that a Norwegian biathlete shared in his live press interview, minutes after winning bronze at the Winter Olympics. So why did Sturla Holm Laegreid choose to tell the world he messed up his chance with "the love of his life" and will his grand gesture to get her back work? Also, the world can't look away from the devastating true-crime story of the apparent abduction of US TV star Savannah Guthrie's mother Nancy. Today, there's been an announcement that a man has been detained after the release of a nightmarish video, but why has this case captured the world's attention and does that spotlight help, or harm, a real-time investigation? Plus, Lindsay Vonn is a US ski-racer who should possibly never have started the race that just ended her career. So is her story a triumphant one about resilience, or a cautionary one about ego? And look, Holly Wainwright, Jessie Stephens and Amelia Lester were not going to leave the studio without a dose of scurrilous gossip: The footballer dumped immediately after they lost the Superbowl; why Kendall Jenner needed hand-holding in the Bad Bunny show; Kim and Lewis and, the couple most likely to infuriate their friends are (maybe) back together.

On this episode of Obsessed, Kevin Fallon is joined by Joanna Coles to dissect the much-talked-about Melania Trump documentary—why it feels more like a glossy ad than a revealing film, what it accidentally exposes about power, marriage, and image, and why its “box office win” doesn't quite add up. Then Joanna sits down with New York Times bestselling author Belle Burden to discuss her devastating and surprising divorce, the voicemail that changed her life overnight, and how betrayal, financial reckoning, and isolation during Covid ultimately led her to write a memoir that has resonated with thousands of women. It's an episode about image versus reality, the stories women are told to keep quiet, and what happens when you finally tell the truth.Follow Kevin Fallon on Instagram @kpfallonFollow Matt Wilstein on Instagram @mattjwilsteinNew episodes every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday; early drops on YouTube.

Today's Headlines: This weekend was a lot. The Seattle Seahawks won the Super Bowl, the Winter Olympics kicked off in Milan, and Vice President JD Vance managed to make himself the main character by getting booed at the opening ceremony and delaying U.S. figure skater Alysa Liu with his massive motorcade — after reportedly flying a plane full of food to Italy, of all places. Embarrassing, but not even close to the most serious news. The FBI has invited election officials from all 50 states to an unusual “election briefing” later this month, amid growing concerns about Trump's repeated calls to nationalize elections. At the same time, DHS has reportedly used administrative subpoenas to try to obtain user data on critics of the Trump administration, including people sharing information about ICE activity or emailing officials to oppose deportations. The Tulsi Gabbard saga also deepened, with new reporting revealing that she allegedly blocked the NSA from circulating a report about a suspicious phone call involving someone tied to foreign intelligence and a person close to Trump — a move that ultimately triggered the whistleblower complaint now under scrutiny. Meanwhile, fallout from the Epstein files continued, with multiple high-profile figures in the U.S. and Europe facing investigations, resignations, or calls to step aside. European governments in particular have moved quickly, launching probes into Epstein's ties to human trafficking, Russian intelligence, and elite institutions — while U.S. consequences remain scarce. Elsewhere, China announced a renewed crackdown on crypto trading loopholes, reports emerged that U.S. service members were pressured to attend screenings of a Melania Trump documentary, the Trump administration allegedly threatened to freeze $16 billion in infrastructure funding unless major transit hubs were renamed after the president, and New York City lawmakers overrode a veto to strengthen labor protections for Uber and Lyft drivers.

Is Melania Trump's new film a documentary? Fan service? Or propaganda?The Amazon funded $40 million-$75 million film, follows the first lady as she prepares for her husband's second inauguration. But, it's finely manicured editing and it's fabricated storylines obscure reality - much like the Trump administration's broader media strategy. So what's the point?Brittany sits down with NPR Senior Arts Critic Bob Mondello, and Vulture Movie Critic Alison Willmore.

The New Yorker staff writer Lauren Collins joins Tyler Foggatt to discuss a new documentary about Melania Trump, which chronicles her life during the twenty days leading up to Donald Trump's second Inauguration. They talk about the film's glossy yet superficial portrait of the First Lady, who served as an executive producer, as well as its troubled rollout and poor critical reception. They also explore Melania's tenure as First Lady and the contradictions at the center of her political identity as an immigrant married to a President whose anti-immigration rhetoric and policies have come to define both his Administration and the moment of the film's release.
