Donald Trump has insisted six people have been arrested and many more have been given citations for vandalizing the renovation of the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. This allegedly includes carving a 350-foot gash in the pool's sealant, and in a dark and angry tirade, Trump just described these people as akin to enemies of the state. But The New York Times just obtained a new statement from federal prosecutors. While they confirmed some citations, the Times also reports that administration officials and prosecutors are refusing to provide a single detail about what happened, refusing to divulge anything about who's been targeted or what their offenses were, and refusing to confirm any arrests of any kind. As former prosecutor Ankush Khardori tells us in today's episode, this is deeply strange. We discuss why it's unusual for officials to clam up about such a high-profile claim, how this raises unnerving possibilities about the unhinged despot in the Oval Office, and why it all points to a deeper rot of Trumpian corruption.  Learn more about your ad choices.

With the fiscal year mostly over, hundreds of millions of dollars in health-related grants approved by Congress still have not reached their designated recipients, with the Trump administration again delaying distribution. Meanwhile, on the fourth anniversary of the Supreme Court decision that allowed states to ban abortion, the number of abortions in the U.S. is actually rising. Maya Goldman of Axios, Joanne Kenen of the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and Politico Magazine, and Rachana Pradhan of KFF Health News join KFF Health News' Julie Rovner to discuss these stories and more. Plus, for “extra credit” the panelists suggest health policy stories they read this week that they think you should read, too: Julie Rovner: The Washington Post's “Tennessee To Restrict Medical Aid for Critically Ill Undocumented Children,” by Silvia Foster-Frau.  Maya Goldman: Stat's “Trump Administration Targets Disability Integration Mandate in DOJ Memo,” by O.

(41:59-50:51) – Jake Query concludes the first hour of the show by playing, and reacting, to what Indiana Fever Head Coach Stephanie White said last night after the game about the way Caitlin Clark is officiated.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, Ben Ferguson fills in for Mark. Democratic Texas Senate candidate James Talarico presents himself as a moderate, faith-based Christian pastor who rejects Christian nationalism. Talarico is actually a radical progressive activist who weaponizes Christianity for left-wing politics.  Talarico's radical positions - God is non-binary, there are more than two biological sexes, the Bible affirms abortion access, and poverty/pollution/prison equal violence. This man is not fit for the Senate. Later, President Trump selected Kash Patel to combat waste, fraud, and abuse, is proving to be an excellent choice as evidenced by a record-setting $6.5 billion healthcare fraud crackdown charging around 450 defendants, primarily in Medicaid and hospice schemes. Officials emphasized unprecedented state-federal cooperation across 45 states and attorneys general, building complete case files for swift law enforcement action—the first such unified effort in modern history. Afterward ,a Biden-appointed federal judge issued a 75-page opinion shutting down the Trump administration's modified SAVE system database, created via executive order to verify citizenship or immigration status of registered voters through DHS and SSA records. This activist decision promotes lawlessness and voter fraud by blocking checks on non-citizens, dead people, and illegal immigrants, especially ahead of midterms. The same judge also blocked an FTC antitrust probe into Media Matters and barred deportation of unaccompanied migrant minors for family reunification abroad. Meanwhile, Senator Mike Lee advances the SAVE America Act, requiring government-issued ID to vote—supported by over 80% of Americans across parties to make voting easy but cheating hard—though four anti-Trump Republicans hinder it in the Senate, where Trump is pushing for passage.

U.S.–Iran talks are moving forward, but just barely. Officials tout “progress,” yet tensions keep derailing momentum. Threats, walkouts, and mistrust continue to define negotiations. Both sides are trading demands on sanctions and nuclear limits, while warning of force. It’s a fragile back-and-forth—diplomacy inching ahead, but frustration boiling underneath.

General Secretary of the Communist Party of China (CPC) Central Committee Xi Jinping has urged incessant efforts in regularizing coordinated regional development to secure solid progress in advancing common prosperity for all.Xi, also Chinese president and chairman of the Central Military Commission, made the remarks in recent instructions on steadily advancing the cooperation between China's eastern and western regions. He highlighted the east-west cooperation program's significant role in supporting poverty alleviation efforts and promoting balanced regional development over the past 30 years since its initiation, which has demonstrated the political strengths of the Party, as well as the superiority of China's socialist system.Xi highlighted this year as the opening year of China's 15th Five-Year Plan, as well as the first year of the regular assistance efforts in the country's rural revitalization drive. He also called for efforts to summarize and apply the valuable experience gained from cooperation between Fujian province and Ningxia Hui autonomous region, further improve cooperation mechanisms, optimize cooperation methods, and expand the scopes of cooperation. The endeavors are expected to promote industrial complementarity, personnel exchanges, and mutual learning of technologies, ideas, and work styles between the eastern and western regions, and to achieve mutual benefits, win-win outcomes, and common development.Party committees and governments at all levels should earnestly fulfill their responsibilities for regularized assistance for western regions, firmly secure the bottom line to prevent any large-scale relapse into poverty or new cases of poverty, steadily advance rural revitalization across the board, and continuously enhance coordinated regional development, so as to make solid progress toward common prosperity for all.The important instructions of Xi were conveyed at a national work conference on east-west regional cooperation, which opened on June 17 in Yinchuan, capital of Ningxia. Liu Guozhong, a member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and vice premier of the State Council, delivered a speech at the meeting. Liu emphasized that General Secretary Xi's important instructions are strategically insightful, profound and incisive, demonstrating strong political, ideological and guiding significance. They provide fundamental guidance for carrying out regularized east-west cooperation, and must be thoroughly studied, fully understood and resolutely implemented.Liu underscored the need to consistently uphold the political responsibility, firmly establish and practice a correct understanding of governance performance, and draw upon the successful experience from Fujian-Ningxia cooperation, among others. Efforts should be intensified to deepen industrial and labor-service coordination between the eastern and western regions, strengthen the exchange of officials and professionals, expand cooperation in science and technology, finance and other fields. It is essential to carry out work creatively in light of local conditions, continuously improve the quality and effectiveness of collaboration, and promote complementary strengths, mutual empowerment and common development.The meeting also briefed participants on the progress of east-west regional cooperation. Officials from Ningxia Hui autonomous region and Fujian province respectively introduced the experience and practices in Fujian-Ningxia cooperation. Officials from Beijing and Shanghai municipalities, as well as Jiangsu, Guangdong, Sichuan and Gansu provinces also addressed the meeting.Officials from relevant provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities undertaking east-west regional cooperation tasks, as well as those from some member departments of the Central Rural Work Leading Group, attended the meeting.

The Tim Conway Jr. Show Hour 3 (6.19) Conway kicks off the hour with the latest from Boyle Heights, where LAFD officials and Mayor Karen Bass held a press conference after the massive cold-storage warehouse fire reignited for a third time in just days. Officials warn residents to stay inside, keep pets indoors, wear masks if they have to go out, and use available shelter options if they want to leave the area. Former L.A. County Fire Captain Steve Kreeger joins the show to break down why this fire is so complicated. From solar panels on the roof and possible lithium-ion battery issues to petroleum products, black smoke, ammonia refrigeration systems, and frozen food inside the warehouse, this is not a normal industrial fire. The crew also explains why the Lineage Logistics warehouse is such a major part of the food supply chain, with refrigerated storage, blast freezing, and port-centered cold-chain logistics. But after days of fire, smoke advisories, and shelter-in-place orders, all that food is likely destroyed. Later, Conway gets into outrageous World Cup ticket prices, with quarterfinal seats starting around $3,700 and final tickets in New York reportedly hitting $10,000. The hour wraps with the news that legendary comedy director James Burrows, the mind behind classics like Cheers and Friends, has died at 85.

Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh vowed to restore price stability following his first policy meeting since taking the helm of the US central bank, after officials left interest rates unchanged and signaled growing support for rate hikes this year.

New Mexico authorities have reopened scrutiny into Zorro Ranch, Jeffrey Epstein's sprawling property near Santa Fe, as investigators for the first time search the site for potential evidence of abuse. The renewed probe is being driven by a state “truth commission,” formed to examine how Epstein was able to operate in the state despite longstanding allegations. The ranch—long suspected by accusers to be part of his trafficking network connecting New York, Florida, and the U.S. Virgin Islands—is now central to questions about why earlier complaints were never fully pursued by law enforcement.The investigation is also raising uncomfortable questions about Epstein's ties to powerful political figures in New Mexico. He donated more than $160,000 to state campaigns between 2002 and 2014, including contributions made after his 2008 sex-crime conviction, and maintained contact with prominent officials such as former governors and a state attorney general. Some donations were later returned, but critics argue the continued associations highlight a broader failure of oversight and accountability. Investigators are now examining not only Epstein's activities at the ranch, but also whether institutional and political connections helped shield him from scrutiny for years.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:As New Mexico investigates, questions are raised about Epstein's links to the powerfulBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The New World screwworm continues to be a major concern for livestock producers across the southern United States, but Texas agricultural leaders say coordinated efforts between state and federal agencies are helping contain the threat and protect animal health. On today's episode of AgNet News Hour, Texas Farm Bureau Director of Communications Gary Joiner provided an update on the latest developments surrounding New World screwworm detections in Texas and the ongoing response efforts. According to Joiner, the primary focus remains surveillance, rapid reporting, and immediate intervention whenever a case is identified. He noted that the pest was successfully eradicated in the United States decades ago and expressed confidence that modern technology and improved preparedness can help prevent widespread impacts today. “We beat this screwworm back in the 1970s,” Joiner said. “We can do it again. We've got better technology, better tools, and I think our farm and ranch community is better prepared.” Federal involvement has played a significant role in the response. Joiner highlighted the efforts of U.S. Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins and USDA officials, who have dedicated additional personnel and resources toward monitoring and controlling the pest. State animal health officials, wildlife agencies, and livestock producers are also working together under a coordinated response plan. One important measure has been the temporary closure of live animal imports from Mexico. While the move has created challenges for some cattle feeders who rely on imported livestock, officials say it is necessary to reduce the risk of additional infestations entering the country. Joiner emphasized that New World screwworm is an animal health issue rather than a food safety issue. “This is not a food safety concern,” Joiner explained. “There is no impact on the meat of the animal or on any other food products consumers enjoy.” Current detections have involved livestock as well as a canine case, underscoring the importance of vigilance among ranchers, veterinarians, and pet owners. Officials recommend promptly treating wounds, monitoring animals for unusual symptoms, and maintaining close communication with veterinarians regarding prevention and treatment options. The response strategy also includes the release of sterile screwworm flies, a proven method that disrupts the insect's reproductive cycle and helps reduce wild populations. Combined with trapping, surveillance, and rapid treatment protocols, officials believe the approach can effectively contain outbreaks before they spread further. While livestock producers remain concerned about the potential economic impacts of New World screwworm, Joiner said the industry is taking the threat seriously and working collaboratively to prevent a larger outbreak. As monitoring continues throughout Texas and other border states, agricultural leaders say awareness and early detection remain the most important tools in protecting the nation's livestock industry.

Justice Department officials appointed by President Trump have made sweeping changes since he returned to office.

In March 2021, after Faithe Ely left a cookout, her body was found on the side of a rural Oklahoma highway. Officials from one law enforcement agency said it looked like a hit and run accident; however, members of the Highway Patrol weren't so sure. Her boyfriend said Faithe stormed off after a drunken altercation, and that a white truck towing a black trailer had been traveling in that direction before she was found. Five years later, her family still wants answers as to who was responsible for Faithe's death — and whether it was an intentional act. The podcast “Blunt Force Trauma” from EchoSpace looks into the death of Faithe Ely, asking whether her death was a pedestrian accident or premeditated murder. Host Troy Taylor sifts through the evidence with experts and family members to learn the circumstances of the incident — and asks why murder investigators think it was an accident and accident investigators think it might be murder.  OUR SPOILER-FREE REVIEWS OF "BLUNT FORCE TRAUMA" BEGIN IN THE FINAL 14 MINUTES OF THE EPISODE.

The latest Hollywood romp through the world of aliens has landed in theaters. Steven Spielberg's movie Disclosure Day suggests that our government has been hiding a cache of evidence about alien visitation that spans decades. It's fun fiction but does it mesh with reality? Officials have made a series of public disclosures containing information about the government's UAP program over the years, releasing massive amounts of declassified documents along with audio and video files. Will the most recent data dump finally provide evidence that aliens are here? We look at the extended history of public desire to believe in extraterrestrial visitation, plus the scientific efforts to detect intelligent or microbial life on other worlds.

Serhii Plokhy describes how on October 26-27, Khrushchev sent conflicting messages: a private letter offering a non-invasion pledge and a public demand to remove U.S. Jupiters in Turkey. This caused chaos in the White House, with officials fearing Khrushchev had been ousted by his military. Kennedy believed a missile swap was the only logical solution but could not agree publicly without undermining NATO credibility. Khrushchev's failure to consult Fidel Castro on these terms sowed deep resentment, creating a secondary crisis between the Soviet Union and its Cuban ally. (6)1956
