Podcasts about Oval Office

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.

Since October 2025, the U.S. has admitted more than 6,000 refugees — and all but three are white South Africans. The Trump administration says Afrikaners are fleeing a "genocide." They're not. This week, we look at how we got here: a conversation with a reporter who was in the Oval Office when Trump pushed this conspiracy theory on South Africa's president — and what his fixation on white South Africans reveals about anxieties over white replacement here in the U.S.See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

Today's Headlines: In a rare occurrence, we're starting with good news. The FDA approved a new drug called Trodelvy that reduces aggressive triple-negative breast cancer progression by 40% compared to chemo — affecting 48,000 Americans a year — science is awesome. Zohran Mamdani swept Tuesday's New York primaries, no he wasn't on the ballot but all three of his DSA-endorsed challengers defeated incumbent Democrats including Dan Goldman and Congressional Hispanic Caucus chair Adriano Espaillat, triggering a full Democratic Party freakout — Letitia James called out Mamdani on CNN, former DNC chair Jaime Harrison posted a barely-veiled "if you hate the party don't use its resources" thread, and Mamdani responded with a Jalen Brunson clip from the Knicks parade. In Trump shenanigans, Donald admitted at a Pennsylvania rally that he personally called the US attorney in California to "take a look" at the governor's primary results, claiming Steve Hilton started winning about an hour after the call, which is either a confession of election interference or the most casual admission of abuse of power we've heard yet. He then refused to sign the bipartisan housing bill his own White House negotiated unless Republicans first pass the SAVE Act to overhaul voting laws before the midterms, got into a screaming match with Bill Cassidy at a Senate lunch over the Iran war vote. As expected, Speaker Mike Johnson immediately announced he'd push the SAVE Act through budget reconciliation to appease him — which is not what budget reconciliation is for, but here we are. In other news, Pete Hegseth forced out highly respected four-star General Christopher Donohue, who headed the Army in Europe and Africa, with more "personnel changes" expected next week as Hegseth continues his speed run of replacing competent military commanders with pliant ones. NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte visited the Oval Office, kissed Trump's ring, and had to sit there while Trump ranted for the fourth consecutive day about someone cutting the reflecting pool with a box cutter. And finally, Bending Spoons — the Italian tech company that owns Vimeo, WeTransfer, AOL, and Eventbrite — is planning a $19 billion US IPO.

On this episode of Red State Update: Father's Day Cadillac Cow Feedin THE REFLECTING POOL DISASTER Team Algae, no-bid nano bubbles, criminal contractors and Florida fellons and Dick Tracy villains. Follow the fence money. IRAN WAR OVER AGAIN AS RUN-UP TO IRAN WAR CONTINUES Trump hates Obama, so he decided to upend the Middle East, international control of the Strait of Hormuz, gas prices, soldiers' lives, and some innocent Iranians. At least we get to watch him throw JD Vance under the bus. How much can we get for that Qatar jet? THE REGIME CHANGE BOOK Jonathan Swan and Maggie Haberman's White House tell-all confirms: Trump is super-gluing gold home interior to the Oval Office walls, Netanyahu has the run of the Situation Room, we really should just stop calling it the situation room at this point, and somebody in there is definitely recording everything. PETE HEGSETH'S RACIST PROMOTION LIST Admiral Stephen D. Barnett of Columbia, Tennessee — TSU grad, stellar, distinguished career — blocked from promotion because Pete Hegseth hates Black people. I mean, it's pretty much all in his book, War on Warriors LOL. We're not making this up! Hegseth won't promote Black folks, women, any minority group. Because only white dudes have merit?

The Resolute Desk is arguably the most famous desk in the world. It is certainly the most iconic of the six desks that have been used by sitting presidents in the Oval Office. Stewart McLaurin, President of the White House Historical Association, traveled to England in order to learn more about the history of the desk which was gifted in 1880 to President Rutherford B. Hayes from Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom as a sign of goodwill between the two nations. Though it was used throughout the White House since President Hayes, the desk was first used in the Oval Office by President John F. Kennedy. It has also been used by Presidents Carter, Reagan, and every president since George W. Bush. The episode begins at The Historic Dockyard Chatham where the British ship HMS Resolute was docked before it was decommissioned, broken apart, and its timbers turned into various items - including a desk for the U.S. President. Almost 30 years earlier, the HMS Resolute had been part of an Arctic rescue expedition in search of a British explorer who went missing on the hunt for the Northwest Passage to Asia. The rescue expedition got stuck in the ice, and after a few seasons, the crew abandoned the ships. It was an American vessel that eventually found the Resolute which had broken free of the ice. The U.S. Congress appropriated the funds to refit the ship and return it to England's Queen Victoria.  Stewart and Paul Barnard, Deputy Chief Executive at The Historic Dockyard Chatham, tour the dockyard and climb aboard a Victorian naval sloop called the HMS Gannet, a similar ship that was introduced into service around the time the Resolute was decommissioned. As we'll learn, the Gannet also has its own tie-in to White House history. Then they visit the space that was once the shop where the Resolute Desk was built. Stewart and Paul are joined by Paul Wright, Interpretation Officer at The Historic Dockyard Chatham, who talks about the skills and craftsmanship of the people who once worked in the yard.  Then Stewart heads to the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, London and meets with Senior Curator, Dr. Claire Warrior, for a special look at several items not on public display, including an actual piece of wood from the HMS Resolute, as well as proposed designs for the famous desk. During his State Visit in April 2026, King Charles III gifted President Donald Trump a framed, high-quality reproduction of these same plans.  Join us for this fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the most recognizable desk in the world.

Brodsky) join No Limits to discuss their debut political thriller, Beyond Honor — a novel that blends the tension of Red Sparrow with the high-stakes momentum of The Terminal List.They talk about their collaborative writing process, balancing two perspectives on espionage fiction, and crafting a story built around CIA betrayal and an Oval Office conspiracy.For spy thriller fans curious about how married co-authors create espionage fiction together, this interview is a must-listen.—

It's Feel-Good Friday, and Unpacked host Aislyn and producer Nikki are joined by a guest they've been waiting weeks to record with: Afar senior editor Lucy Kehoe, who also edits our UK sister title, Suitcase. Three stories, all good news, landing fittingly on Juneteenth. This week's stories: A landmark opening in Chicago lands right on Juneteenth: a nearly 20-acre campus on the South Side, a decade in the making, that's less presidential library and more civic gathering place, right down to an Oval Office anyone can sit in. Five new museums are arriving in one famously museum-rich city this year, from a vertigo-inducing glass storehouse where you can watch conservators at work to a love letter to teenage subcultures, Walkman included. A newly protected stretch of the South Pacific roughly the size of the Amazon rainforest. One that's Indigenous-led, tourism-friendly, and home to about three-quarters of the world's coral species. Plus: Nikki's very specific dream of finally meeting a dugong in the wild. Tune in every Friday through June for a fresh trio of stories from Afar's favorite travel writers and editors. We'll see you next week.

Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles examine Donald Trump's strange relationships with the women closest to him over the course of his 80 years—from Ivana and Marla Maples to the enduring mystery of Melania Trump's absence from public life. They explore how his marriages, obsession with image, and lack of genuine intimacy have shaped the man now occupying the Oval Office, revisiting his connections to Jeffrey Epstein, the world of beauty pageants and models, and the late-night Truth Social posts that have replaced any private confidant. It's a revealing look at the deeply personal patterns that may explain how a president with no visible emotional support system governs as a government of one.

More Retirement Alerts - Social Security running out again.... - Less that 10 year until the reserves are exhausted - The Social Security Administration's newly released 2026 Trustees Report confirms that the federal retirement safety net is less than seven years away from fiscal depletion, as the Old-Age and Survivors Insurance (OASI) trust fund will completely exhaust its accumulated reserves in the fourth quarter of 2032. - Once the reserve dries up, ongoing tax revenues will cover only 78% of scheduled retirement benefits, according to the report. - Some of the blame is being laid on the OBBBA with higher standard deductions and lower taxes on SS Benefits - "The OBBBA also adds a temporary additional standard deduction for taxpayers over age 65," it says.

SpaceX - IPO - Finally! $135 per share - Rose to $160+/- on the debut day - Rather smooth process and very orderly - A total of $85B was raised - due to an add-on additional green-shoe that was allowed ($10B) for institutions. - Rose another $20% on Monday - Retail got about 20% of the deal (down from 30%) Oracle - Oracle Corp. shares declined after the company reported quarterly capital expenses that were higher than estimates, raising investor concerns about the profitability of the AI infrastructure business. - The company expects to spend about $70 billion on net capital expenditures in the current fiscal year, and plans to raise another $40 billion in equity and debt. - Oracle's cloud infrastructure business gained 93% to $5.8 billion, and total cloud revenue is projected to jump about 61% in the quarter ending in August. - The increase of $5B over the course of the year was disconcerting to investors. - Shares dropped the most in over 6 months on the news CPI and PPI - May CPI was mixed but generally cooler on the core reading, with headline CPI up 0.5% month-over-month, matching consensus, while Core CPI rose 0.2%, below the 0.3% consensus and below Briefing's 0.4% estimate. - The softer core CPI reading suggests some easing in underlying consumer inflation pressures, which is the more constructive part of the inflation picture. - May PPI was firmer than expected on the headline reading, with PPI up 1.1% versus 0.7% consensus and 0.8% Briefing estimate, matching the prior month's revised 1.1% pace. - Core PPI rose 0.4%, matching consensus and coming in below the prior month's revised 0.7%, indicating wholesale inflation remained elevated but did not accelerate further on the core measure. - Taken together, the CPI and PPI reports point to a mixed inflation backdrop: consumer-level core inflation looked somewhat better, but producer-level price pressures remained sticky. Cyberdyne - Anthropic announced Claude Fable 5, a Mythos-class model that will be available to its enterprise customers and paid subscribers. - The company unveiled Mythos in April and has limited the rollout because of its advanced cybersecurity capabilities. - Anthropic said Claude Fable 5?s broad release is possible because of new safeguards that block responses in specific high-risk areas. - WAIT! The US government PULLED the plug on Mythos and Fable for any foreign national - From Anthropic - The US government, citing national security authorities, has issued an export control directive to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether inside or outside the United States, including foreign national Anthropic employees.

Last night's UFC Freedom 250 wasn't just a historic night of fights, it was a massive, pro-America spectacle that captured the entire country's attention. From Justin Gaethje's unforgettable, flag-draped walkout to the stunning pre-fight visuals from the Oval Office, the energy was through the roof. But the real drama exploded outside the cage when Sean Strickland was dramatically escorted out of an invite-only fan event by the Secret Service after leading the crowd in impromptu chants and sparking an intense conversation about free speech in America. We break down the wild optics, and what this means for the sport and the culture.Plus, we are shifting focus to a massive shakeup on the global stage. With the Pakistani Prime Minister announcing a historic Iran-U.S. peace deal set to be signed in Switzerland this week, we tackle the big question: is this a genuine step toward peace, or are we on shaky ground? Especially as Israeli National Security Minister Ben-Gvir fires back, declaring Israel is not subject to the United States. Then, Daily Carry Podcast host Micah Richardson joins the show to give us his expert take on navigating these rapidly changing times.To wrap things up, we are serving up a healthy dose of American pride. With the 2026 World Cup officially underway, international tourists—including an army of invading Scots—are falling head over heels for the simple joys of American culture, cheap fuel, and our "conquer the day" mentality. We react to the viral clips of Europeans reminding us how great we actually have it, look at a wild meltdown from an American woman who couldn't stand patriotism, and finish with a cautionary look at a fiery city council meeting out of Hamtramck, Michigan. You don't want to miss this one—hit play and let's dive in!

Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman break down Donald Trump's highly publicized 80th birthday peace plan, which is actually just an extension of the ceasefire with Iran. Jared details the staggering public and private costs, including $24 billion in unfrozen assets and a minimum of $300 billion in American-funded war reparations to a nation whose entire GDP matches that amount. While JD Vance takes to the airwaves to compare the deal to the unconditional surrenders of World War II, Nick and Jared expose the framework as a massive vehicle for market manipulation designed to kick economic and energy consequences down the road while bypassing crucial nuclear considerations. The corporate circus continues on the front lawn of the White House, which Trump transformed into an octagon for UFC 250. The duo reacts to the garish spectacle, which included fighter entrances from the Oval Office, flyovers, and fighter Josh Hoke's bizarre post-fight interview antics. They also dig into the deleted tweet controversy involving Eric Trump allegedly hunting for insider fighter data to place bets via direct message. Finally, they confront the reality of unchecked tech capitalism as Elon Musk officially becomes the world's first trillionaire, propped up by billions in government subsidies to form a new tech-military-industrial complex. The hosts close with a look at the quiet, bipartisan surrender to artificial intelligence as the Trump administration readies to buy shares in OpenAI while competitors like Anthropic warn of autonomous self-replication.

GART is less than two weeks out and Ashe has a dedicated laundry basket for Deadwood outfits because Brian wants her to think about the weight of her suitcase. The ladies kick things off recapping UFC at the White House, the dripping with corporate sponsorships narrative swap the left tried after the taxpayer dollars argument fell apart, fighters walking out of the Oval Office down the Hall Of Presidents and giving glory to God, and Ashe's bicentennial memories of 1976 making the case that this is what the run up to 250 should feel like. Adriana takes the floor for a forty minute college lecture on the Salem witch trials, including the wildly underappreciated detail that it started with an illness, the catch 22 of confess and walk or deny and hang, ergot fungus on rye as a likely LSD precursor poisoning, and how the whole thing reads exactly like a 1692 mass formation psychosis. Christy closes out with saved by the bell, which has both a fun safety coffin origin (Victorian anxiety did not believe in doing anything halfway) and a boring boxing origin, plus the small detail that no safety coffin ever saved anyone. Photo challenge submissions, GART golf cart plans, and a battle of the sexes event teaser for next week.

   It was the most epic Red, White and Blue weekend I can ever remember and it was topped off with a spectacular scene in DC for UFC Freedom 250 and a deal made with Iran.  Pinch me, if you will, because this just all seems too good to be true.  We are SO back and we are flaunting it everywhere from the soccer pitch to the Strait of Hormuz to the Octagon of Doom outside the Oval Office.  I voted for ALL of this.    Jackson County charges two men for allegedly stealing England's soccer shoes and after hearing their names, I only have one question I need answered.    The Royals may have found a new ace after a brilliant performance Sunday.  The San Francisco Giants have several players that weren't having it on Pride Night, the Carolina Hurricanes win the Stanley Cup and a whole bunch of Rod Stewart fans are not happy with something he did this weekend.

Chairman Jason Smith of the House Ways and Means Committee joins the Try That In A Small Town podcast from CMA Fest in Nashville. He breaks down what the powerful Ways and Means Committee actually does and how it touches every American's life through taxes, trade, Social Security, Medicare, and more. Jason opens up about his small-town Missouri roots, being a fourth-generation farmer, raising white buffalo, and why he still lives in the same rural community he represents. He explains how he took the Ways and Means Committee on the road to 32 states to listen to working families, small businesses, and farmers before writing what he calls the “Big Beautiful Bill” – the largest tax cut in U.S. history, including no tax on tips and overtime. The conversation gets candid on Social Security's future, election integrity and slow vote counts in places like California, and what happens when people lose trust in the system. Jason also shares behind-the-scenes stories of working closely with President Trump – from grilling him for three hours on every line of a 103-title tax bill in the Oval Office to the now-famous “red button” that just orders Diet Coke. Along the way, they talk CMA Fest, Jason's obsession with Reba, the Chiefs, Mahomes vs. Brady, cleaning up Washington, D.C., and why he believes the founding fathers' values are really small-town values. Jason closes with a powerful story of a single mom whose $10,000 tax refund changed her life – and why that's why he still fights for small towns and working families.

It's Friday, June 12th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Hundreds of Nigerians freed from Boko Haram captivity after months Ready for some good news? Hundreds of Nigerians, who had been abducted by Boko Haram Muslim militants during a devastating March attack, have just been freed after months in captivity, reports International Christian Concern. It's one of the largest releases of hostages in the region in recent years.  Officials claim that the Nigerian army rescued 360 captives from a remote hideout in the Mandara Mountains of Borno State near the border with the country of Cameroon. However, local community leaders insist that local negotiations, rather than military action, secured their freedom. Pentagon on lock down over “air quality issue” On June 11th, the Pentagon was placed on lockdown after officials detected an “air quality issue” inside the building, reports NewsNation.com. Chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell said the War Department activated standard safety procedures, including a “shelter-in-place order for affected areas. The Pentagon has sophisticated systems to ensure the safety of the building and its occupants. Those systems have detected an air quality issue necessitating precautionary measures until we determine its significance.” Trump adds SAVE Act to Pentagon reconciliation bill Despite the fact that the U.S. Senate has failed to make progress towards passing the much-needed Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act or SAVE America Act, which would secure our nation's elections, President Donald Trump is not throwing in the towel. In a post on Truth Social, he just announced a huge move to get the act passed by adding it directly to the upcoming $350 billion Pentagon reconciliation bill. This way, the legislation can clear the Senate with a simple majority, rather than the 60 votes needed under current rules. Referencing the SAVE Act, he wrote, “THE SAVE AMERICA ACT … will protect our Elections for Generations to come.  Our Warriors protect our most Sacred Rights, and Voting is at the top. Time to defend that Right for every American!” Yesterday, President Trump made these comments from the Oval Office. TRUMP: “All voters must show photo I.D.  So, you go to vote and show photo ID. Not complicated. But who could oppose it? … “All voters must show a little thing called proof of citizenship. No mail-in ballots except for illness, disability, military, or travel. So, we're being very progressive. We just don't want cheating. You see what's happening in California. They're rigging the election.” Urge your two U.S. Senator to pass the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act or SAVE Act by calling 202-224-3121. That's 202-224-3121. Suspicious newly registered homeless votes in LA Mayoral race In a suspicious turn of events to block Spencer Pratt's candidacy for Los Angeles mayor, thousands of homeless voters were registered to vote at Los Angeles  shelters — despite many not living there or the facilities not having any beds at all, reports the New York Post. As Spencer Pratt was eliminated by Nithya Raman in the mayor's race during additional counting of votes on June 8th, one drop-in center, St. Joseph Center in Venice, which had received $600,000 from Nithya Raman, had 185 registered voters at the address but offers absolutely no accommodations.  After the New York Post inquired about this suspicious activity, the photograph of Raman presenting a check to St. Joseph's was taken down from its website. The revelations have prompted U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli to say he will investigate the concerns uncovered by The New York Post and “follow the evidence” to see if the law has been broken.  A review of records shows 7,600 voters tied to homeless shelters and service providers. The largest concentration of homeless voters was at the Midnight Mission in Skid Row, where voting records show 1,160 registrations — but its website shows it only has beds for 9% of that number -- 84 men and 36 women. Something stinks in Denmark! Proverbs 17:23 says, "A wicked man takes a covert bribe from his bosom to pervert the ways of justice." ACLU asserts a “religious right” to abortion in Indiana The Thomas More Society is weighing in on a pending ACLU-inspired abortion case before the Indiana Supreme Court, urging the state's highest jurists not to recognize a so-called “right” to abortion under the guise of religious freedom, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Indiana law bans most surgical abortions. Sadly, chemical abortions persist due to mail-order Abortion Kill Pills, which the state legislature has so far been unable to quash. The ACLU suit claims that denying Indiana mothers abortions would violate Indiana's Religious Freedom Restoration Act, a 2015 law that says that government may not “substantially burden a person's exercise of religion.” Indiana Republican Attorney General Todd Rokita has appealed, and the Indiana Supreme Court agreed in April to take the case. Oral arguments are set to begin in September. Thomas Olp with the Thomas Moore Society, said, “This case is a Trojan Horse. The ACLU and its clients want to call this religious liberty, but it isn't—not under any historically honest understanding of the term. From Cicero to John Locke to the framers of Indiana's Constitution, the natural law tradition that gave us religious freedom has never treated the taking of innocent life as an exercise of religion.” Missionary David Brainerd had a heart to see Indians saved And finally, on June 12, 1744, David Brainerd was ordained by the Presbyterian Church to be a missionary to the New England Indians. He first went to an Indian village on the Housatonic River in Connecticut. Then, he studied the Algonquin languages in Stockbridge, Massachusetts. According to the Generations-published Taking the Americas for Jesus, Brainerd loved the Indians which is why he wanted them to hear the Good News of Jesus Christ. He said, “I taught that men are sinners. All sinners will be judged by God. Then, I told them that Christ could save them. Christ was a great Savior.  All who believe in Jesus will be saved.” Even living in a wigwam and missing many meals, Brainerd was undeterred.  Indian witch doctors tried to poison him. He asked, “Why can't your magic harm me?” Sometimes Indians trusted in Christ. But many did not want to leave their idols. In 1745, Brainerd went to an Indian tribe in New Jersey where 100 Indians converted to Christianity. 2 Corinthians 5:17 says, “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come. The old has gone, the new is here!” He died from tuberculosis on October 9, 1747, at the young age of 29.  Close And that's The Worldview on this Friday, June 12th, in the year of our Lord 2026.

U.S. President Donald Trump said on June 11 that a U.S.–Iran deal is close and will be signed in the coming days. “We just made a great settlement of the war with Iran,” Trump said at the beginning of an Oval Office event. “And we're going to be, subject to finalization of documents, which should get done over the next few days, probably have a signing, maybe in Europe.”Elon Musk's SpaceX is is set for its IPO on June 12 making history as the largest initial public offering on record with a value of US$1.77 trillion, According to SEC filings, SpaceX plans to sell 555.6 million shares at an initial $135 a share.

President Donald Trump announced Thursday that he called off planned evening strikes against Iran, saying a deal with Iran will soon be reached soon, with the "time and place of the signing to be announced shortly."Trump spoke to reporters in the Oval Office following the signing of the executive order to restore America's seafood competitiveness, stressing the need to pass the Save America Act."We need to have voter identification, which we don't have right now on a national basis," Trump told NTD. Trump said Democrats are opposing the bill and do not want people to provide "citizenship when you vote."Homeless residents in Los Angeles' Skid Row are claiming they were paid between $2 to $5 to vote for Mayor Karen Bass during the recent Los Angeles mayoral race. The videos went viral on social media and were first published Tuesday by TikTok account LANeedsSpencerPratt. NTD went to downtown L.A. to interview residents about their experiences.

Episode 113 opens with Ghost's "cyclone" theory in full motion: Trump occupies both sides of the Iran narrative at once, threatening to bomb Tehran while announcing a deal is two or three days away. Ghost breaks down the Apache helicopter incident, Trump telling the Wall Street Journal it "wasn't a big deal," and the Oval Office gaggle where Trump casually reveals he has been working directly with Iran for months. Trump questions whether Netanyahu should even run for reelection while Netanyahu's own cabinet discusses fighting Iran alone in total isolation. The Strait of Hormuz bombshell follows: Trump claims the US secretly moved oil through it for months without Iran knowing, and a congressional hearing exposes the contradictions. Then comes the deal itself: 49 Tomahawks, a leaked 14-point memorandum, and Trump's furious denial of the leaked terms. Mark Levin spirals from celebrating bombing to demanding the text of the deal, while Israel confirms it is not party to the agreement. Erdogan and Netanyahu trade threats, and Ghost maps a possible Greece-Israel-Ukraine alliance against Turkey. The episode closes with Tulsi Gabbard's declassification of 120 US-funded bio labs across 30 countries.

CannCon and Chris Paul close out the week with a show that whiplashes in real time right alongside the news itself. Trump tells Fox News in the morning that bombing Iran will continue and be bigger than ever, then hours later announces on Truth Social that strikes are canceled and a memorandum of understanding has been signed with eleven countries including Israel, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey. In the Oval Office, Trump reveals the Strait of Hormuz has secretly been open the entire time, with hundreds of millions of barrels of oil quietly moved out at night while radar was jammed, directly undercutting the media narrative that blamed gas prices on a closed strait. Within the hour, Trump posts again accusing Iran of lying about the deal terms and says the war may be back on. Chris Paul makes the case that the discombobulation itself may be the point, an invitation to step back and simply observe rather than form beliefs from contradictory information. CannCon and Chris also dig into the Hill's reporting on a growing GOP civil war, with Massey, MTG, and Ro Khanna appearing together in ways that suggest either organic coalition building or a scripted third party operation. JD Vance heads to Europe to finalize the deal before a View appearance back home.

Ilhan Omar told a reporter that Palestinians are "ethnic to the land in which they belong" — and Larry O'Connor flips her own logic right back to explain exactly why Donald Trump says she belongs in Somalia. It comes the same day Trump unloaded on Omar from the Oval Office and torched Jamie Raskin as "a loser in life" over impeachment. Plus Jerry Seinfeld's now-viral "show it to me on a map" takedown of a free-Palestine heckler.

Today on America in the MorningTrump Signals Agreement With Iran President Trump on Thursday withdrew threats to take Iran's most critical oil terminal and also put a stop to his previously scheduled attacks on Iran, saying in the Oval Office that an agreement to end hostilities with Iran may happen as soon as this weekend.  Politico is reporting that this was put into motion after several Gulf and South Asian nations called the president to change his mind.  Ed Donahue reports that if an agreement is signed, it will include Iranian guarantees that it will not pursue any nuclear weapons and also reopen the Strait of Hormuz.   Trump Names New DNI Nominee With Democrats and some prominent Republicans revolting over President Trump's pick to serve as interim Director of National Intelligence after the resignation of Tulsi Gabbard, the President has named someone else as a permanent replacement.  John Stolnis has the latest from Washington.   FISA Expiring A key surveillance tool that lets the U.S. collect intelligence abroad now seems nearly certain to expire at midnight, after 20 Republicans broke ranks with the GOP and joined House Democrats to vote it down.  Washington correspondent Sagar Meghani reports.   86-47 Etched Near White House Large numbers “86-47,” a phrase generally used to signal opposition to President Donald Trump appeared etched into the grass on the National Mall on Thursday in an area just a short walk from the White House and where a UFC fight will be held on the South Lawn of the presidential residence.   Pentagon Incident There was concern at the Pentagon on Thursday after the home of the Department of War went into lockdown after its internal systems detected a dangerous air quality issue.  Correspondent Clayton Neville reports about 25-thousand people who work inside the building were impacted.   SCOTUS Says No To Execution The US Supreme Court in a ruling on Thursday night said the state of Alabama cannot execute a death row inmate by a method using nitrogen gas.  The high court's ruling upheld two lower courts that said using that type of method of execution violates the ban on cruel and unusual punishment, sending Jeffrey Lee back to death row.  Mike Hempen reports.   Debating The Anthony Case America is still reacting to the murder conviction of a black teenager in Texas who stabbed another teenager at a high school track meet.  Correspondent Clayton Neville has the latest from Dallas.   Minnesota Shooter Takes A Plea Deal The man charged in the political assassinations of the top Democrat in the Minnesota House and her husband...and the injuring of a state senator and his wife, has taken a plea deal that spares him the death penalty.  Correspondent Joan Jones has details on the case that shocked the nation nearly one year ago.   SpaceX IPO Elon Musk's rocket company SpaceX makes its debut on Wall Street today, with an initial public offering that is expected to shatter records.   Correspondent Damian Troise explains. Producer Prices Higher The prices for what we pay shot up in the Month of May, as a report points at the war with Iran for price hikes.  Correspondent Mike Hempen reports.

President Trump said he called off a third night of airstrikes on Iranian targets. In the Oval Office, he again said that a deal was close between the U.S. and Iran, and that it might be signed this weekend. Iran denied any movement toward a longer-term agreement. William Brangham reports. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy

You’re listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for June 10, 2026. We open with a deep dive into the Iran negotiations — and the fundamental question that no amount of dealmaking experience can easily solve. President Trump is the greatest negotiator of his generation, but every negotiation assumes both parties want a mutually beneficial outcome. The Iranian regime wakes up every morning chanting death to America and death to Israel. Where is the common ground with people who want you dead? We trace the Iranian Revolution back to its founding act — not signing a constitution, not declaring independence, but taking Americans hostage — and explain why a regime defined by its opposition to America may never be capable of the kind of deal Trump has made in every other negotiation of his life. In our Top 3 Things You Need to Know, the U.S. and Iran exchanged fire again this week following Iran's shooting down of an American Apache helicopter — the U.S. launched fighter jet strikes on Iranian air defenses, Iran fired missiles at U.S. bases in Bahrain, Jordan, and Kuwait, and the U.S. launched a second wave of strikes Wednesday evening. President Trump said Iran was taking too long and would now have to pay the price. Then Democrats in Maine voted overwhelmingly to nominate Graham Plattner — the man with the SS tattoo, the predator website, and the endorsements of Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren — as their Senate candidate against Susan Collins. And Carmelo Anthony was convicted of murdering 17-year-old Austin Metcalf and sentenced to 35 years in prison — a jury that took just three hours to convict and another three hours to sentence, while protesters outside claimed the verdict was racist despite multiple Black teammates of Metcalf testifying that Anthony committed the crime. We dig into the aftermath of the Anthony verdict — specifically a petition circulating on Change.org calling for the arrest of Austin Metcalf's surviving twin brother Hunter, claiming his alleged behavior contributed to the murder. Our American Mamas Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson respond to the mother outside the courthouse who asked what she should tell her five sons after the verdict. The answer, says Teri, is simple — don't stab people. We also discuss the race-baiting that surrounded the trial from the beginning, the GoFundMe that raised millions for Anthony's defense, the impact statements from the Metcalf family in the courtroom, and why Carmelo Anthony's parents walked out rather than listen to Austin Metcalf's father speak. We also cover President Trump bringing the workers who restored the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool into the Oval Office — giving them presidential challenge coins and publicly honoring the people who actually did the work rather than the politicians who show up for the gold-plated shovel photo op. We call it exactly what it is — a reminder that America was built by people in tool belts, not people at podiums. In our Digging Deep segment, a new Signal poll heading into the midterms shows that swing voters — the ones who actually decide elections — believe Democrats are more focused on hating Donald Trump than solving problems by a margin of 23 points. We also note that only 58% of Americans say they are extremely or very proud to be American, including only 28% of voters under 30, and that 30% of Democrats say they are not at all proud of their country. We make the case that if you can't tell the American people what you love about this country or offer them solutions that have actually worked somewhere on earth, running on hatred of one man is not a winning message. We also weigh in on Graham Plattner's victory speech — in which he said it was his job to earn the trust of disappointed voters. We point out that trust is not the starting point. Vision is. And we ask the question JFK would have asked — what can you do for your country — and wonder how well his 1961 inaugural address would play at a 2026 Democrat rally. For our Bright Spot, the World Cup kicks off Thursday in the United States, Canada, and Mexico — and European fans traveling across America to follow their teams are going viral for the most American reasons imaginable. A German man driving from Georgia through Mississippi to Texas ate Waffle House at 1 a.m., stopped at Buc-ee's, and attended a practice match at Auburn Stadium where he posted that his European mind could not comprehend what he was seeing. A Swedish woman who flew into Indianapolis posted from a flight over Colorado that she had faster Wi-Fi than at home and that the United States had completely radicalized her within 48 hours. We call it what it is — the American dream, visible to everyone who arrives here with open eyes. And we close with the Chicago Bears officially heading to Hammond, Indiana — after Governor Pritzker couldn't offer them what they needed. They weren't asking for a bailout. They were willing to invest $2 billion of their own money. All they wanted was tax stability. A government that has no stability itself cannot give stability to anyone else.

In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, as California continues to tally election results, state leaders are urging patience as President Trump again complains about the use of mail-in ballots and delays in the results. In the Oval Office on Thursday, Trump accused Democrats of trying to "steal" the California gubernatorial and Los Angeles mayoral primaries without any evidence to support his claim. With many races still undecided, outcomes could take days or even weeks as ballots are counted, including in the governor's race. Also President Trump storms off 'Meet the Press' interview, rips Kristen Welker, ABC, CBS, and CNN as 'crooked' / A look at May's jobs numbers / Gearing up for the World Cup / Audio from Scott Pelley on CBS' bias.

This week on The Necessary Conversation, Haley is back to join Chad and Mary Lou in the 15th week of Trump's illegal war with Iran. We discuss:

Don't miss this critical breakdown — Candace Owens is in Russia speaking at Putin's economic forum, and many are calling her a "useful idiot" for Kremlin propaganda. Is this a principled stand or something far more dangerous for conservative values? Watch until the end for the full picture. In this video, we dive deep into Candace Owens' controversial trip to Russia. While she's praising Moscow's "clean, beautiful, and family-friendly" streets and Christian heritage on X, experts warn that Vladimir Putin is expertly manipulating high-profile conservative voices like hers to sow division in America. From panels alongside sanctioned Russian officials to rubbing shoulders with figures like Aleksandr Dugin, this raises serious red flags for patriots who value truth over foreign influence. We also cover: Trump on nuclear dust in Iran. American coal is coming back? Tucker Carlson for president? Scott Bessent vs. the world. A.J. Dybantsa corrects Gilbert Arenas on Utah. What do YOU think? Is Candace Owens standing for truth or playing right into Putin's hands? Drop your thoughts in the comments — especially if you're a conservative concerned about foreign meddling, America First priorities, or manipulation from ANY side. Should conservatives be engaging with Russia like this, or is it time to draw a harder line?

President Trump Makes an Announcement on Beautiful, Clean Coal. President Trump just sounded the alarm from the Oval Office over what he says are serious election problems in California.Trump says he is “closely watching” the vote counting, claiming the numbers in key California races are suddenly shifting in ways he finds suspicious. He pointed directly to mail-in ballots, delayed counting, and the long timeline California officials say may be needed before final results are known.In Trump's words, the numbers are looking “strange,” and he says he does not want cheating in American elections.California's vote-counting process is once again under national scrutiny, with Trump blasting the idea that it could take seven or eight days to determine winners in major races. Supporters say this is exactly why election integrity must be front and center. Critics argue California's slow process is tied to mail-ballot verification and state counting rules.So what is really happening in California? Why are votes still being counted? Why are the numbers shifting? And is Trump right to be watching this so closely?In this episode, Professor Nez breaks down Trump's explosive Oval Office comments, the California mail-in ballot controversy, the races under scrutiny, and why this could become one of the biggest election integrity fights in the country.For free and unbiased Medicare help, dial (656) 218-0931 to speak with my trusted partner, Chapter, or go to https://askchapter.org/nez▶Sign up to our Free Newsletter, so you never miss out: https://bio.site/professornez▶ ORIGINAL MADE IN U.S.A 250TH AMERICA DESIGNS: https://professornez.myspreadshop.com/

David Rothkopf and Joanna Coles dive into a week of chaos surrounding Donald Trump, from a weekend barrage of Truth Social posts and increasingly bizarre self-mythologizing to mounting questions about his health, judgment, and grip on reality. Rothkopf argues that Trump's latest behavior reveals a president trapped by crises of his own making—from Iran and a crumbling political coalition to what he describes as a dangerous fantasy world where everyone else plays the victim. The pair also unpack the growing signs of Republican unease, the political fallout heading into the midterms, and why a larger generational reckoning may be reshaping global leadership. As the conversation builds toward a chilling conclusion about power, aging, and the risks of desperation, Rothkopf delivers one of his starkest assessments yet of the man occupying the Oval Office.

The President is heading back to Walter Reed Medical Center for his third examination since taking office. Recent media headlines have pointed to Trump’s swollen ankles, bruised hands, and frequent Oval Office “naps” that the White House has described as “long blinks.” As Trump gets ready to turn 80 next month, he has been posting odd, self created headlines claiming he’s actually getting younger.
