California's failed governor sees his 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue hopes dwindle as his wife's creative accounting puts the first family in a bright IRS spotlight. How did they spend more money last year than they earned? Strategist Mark Halperin says he knows who democrats will run in 2028, and it's not Newsom OR Kamala. James Talarico gets a nice salary for a no-show job as standard-operating political grifting lands Senator Ruben Gallego back in the news. Is a trip to Disney with the wife and kids a campaign expense? Ilhan Omar's husband made $200 last year.     

Obama never thought Trump could win in 2016, perhaps because he underestimated how much the opposition loathed him. At the opening of his new presidential center on Thursday, he spoke of presidents acting with duty, honor, and kindness—even though the current occupant at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue is all about destroying things, being mean, hurting people, and starting dumb wars. Indeed, Trump's foreign policy may be more in the American tradition than Obama's. Plus, a debate over whether Kamala's response to Gaza cost her the White House along with her standing in the party. Also, some Knicks love and another installment in the perils and pitfalls of wokeness—this time with some Talarico comments from 2020.Ta-Nehisi Coates joins Tim Miller for the Juneteenth holiday weekend pod.show notes Ta-Nehisi's latest piece in Vanity Fair Tim's playlist

This week, we kick things off with the successful Freedom 250 celebration at the White House. Patriotism, festivities, and enough red, white, and blue to make Uncle Sam ask everyone to tone it down a notch. Apparently, America knows how to throw a birthday party.Speaking of parties, Barack Obama casually revealed that there were some pretty wild gatherings during his White House years. Which naturally leaves us wondering: were these classy soirées, or was somebody playing beer pong in the Lincoln Bedroom? We discuss the comments and speculate on what exactly "wild" means when you're living at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.Then we head to the golf course, where Phil Mickelson reportedly found himself in the rough after allegedly behaving inappropriately with a woman and getting shown the clubhouse door. Apparently, "playing through" doesn't apply to personal conduct.Finally, across the pond, thousands of people in the United Kingdom took to the streets to voice concerns about immigration, national identity, and the future of their country. We break down the protests, the reactions, and why Europeans seem to have mastered the art of expressing frustration while standing in the rain.From White House celebrations to presidential party stories, golf course drama, and political unrest overseas, this episode has more twists than a British roundabout.So grab your favorite beverage, avoid getting kicked out of any country clubs, and remember: if someone says there were "wild parties" at the White House, everybody immediately starts wondering who was in charge of the playlist.

The president celebrated a new decade and the nation's semiquincentennial with a cage fight on Pennsylvania Avenue. Correspondent Gethin Coolbaugh reports.

Jimmy Carter hosted an ice skating exhibition at the White House, and George W. Bush once staged a friendly game of T-ball at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, but the prospect of mixed martial arts fights on the South Lawn would have never arisen if anyone other than Donald Trump were president and anyone other than Dana White ran the UFC. When Trump, a longtime fan of the fight promotion and steadfast friend to its chief executive, first suggested the idea to White at a UFC event last April, the pugnacious promoter said he would do it without hesitation. “He knows the day he asked me to do this event that I was going to show up and deliver,” White tells Forbes. “I love that type of stuff. Tell me it can't be done, tell me it's a huge challenge, tell me it's going to cost us a bunch of money. Tell me this, that. That's the stuff that I run right into.” White's tenure with the UFC has been defined by audacious risk-taking, propelling the company over the last 25 years from a bloody sideshow into a $1.5 billion (revenue) sports powerhouse. But Freedom 250 on June 14 (not coincidentally President Trump's birthday) is, even by his standards, “difficult on a whole other level.” In addition to the 4,300-seat outdoor venue that has now been erected on the South Lawn—and its 87-foot canopy, which towers above the White House itself—the weekend will include a press conference at the Lincoln Memorial and a two-day fan fest for as many as 85,000 people at the Ellipse. (The president likes the temporary structure so much he compared it to the Eiffel Tower, saying this week, “Maybe we'll never, ever take it down.”) Because the UFC controls its own TV productions, it will pick up the tab for not only the infrastructure but also the broadcasts, with nine production trucks' worth of equipment and crew.

Corruption Central has new address: 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. From Trump's Weaponization slush fund to international negotiations including Trump Towers and sketchy stock trades and Crypto deals, this next gift should come as no surprise: Dell wins a $9.7B Pentagon deal — weeks after Trump publicly urged people to “go out and buy a Dell” and after Michael Dell's family pledged $6.25B to seed the administration's “Trump accounts.” We'll check out the contract (a five‑year Core Enterprise Technology Agreement to supply Microsoft licensing, cloud subscriptions and on‑prem software). We'll drill down into the Pentagon's claim the award followed a competitive process and will save roughly $422M a year, and we'll examine why timing — stock purchases, public praise, and Dell's ties to the Trump administration are now prompting ethics and conflict‑of‑interest scrutiny.

//The Wire//2300Z May 25, 2026// //ROUTINE// //BLUF: WEEKEND RHETORIC OF POTENTIAL PEACE DEAL IN MIDDLE EAST GIVES WAY TO RENEWED EFFORTS TO REIGNITE THE WAR IN IRAN. MULTIPLE INDUSTRIAL INCIDENTS REPORTED IN LOS ANGELES. PEPPER SPRAY INCIDENTS CONTINUE IN JAPAN. SHOOTING REPORTED AT WHITE HOUSE.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Japan: This morning a chemical incident was reported at Ginza Six Mall in Tokyo. One individual reportedly sprayed an unidentified noxious substance at one of the entrances to the mall, which resulted in many people becoming ill. 12x individuals reported throat pain, and a total of 25x people sought medical treatment after the substance was released.Analyst Comment: When it comes to chemical incidents involving unknown materials in public places, the potential explanations vary widely. In this case, the origin appears to be pepper spray, with some locals claiming that an argument between two foreign men devolved into one of the two pepper spraying the other. Officially, no statements by authorities have confirmed what happened. As always, incidents like this occurring in Japan are extremely rare as pepper spray is heavily regulated and illegal to carry throughout the country. Consequently, incidents which wouldn't be worth mentioning in the western world result in overwhelming responses in Japan, and in this case this is the second such incident this month. Two weeks ago, someone deployed pepper spray on a train at Kawasaki Station, which occurred without much media attention. -HomeFront-California: Multiple major industrial incidents have taken place in Los Angeles over the past few days. Several days ago, a chemical incident was reported at the GKN Aerospace facility in Garden Grove. The incident involved a cooling system failing inside a large tank holding about 7,000 gallons of methyl methacrylate (UN: 1247), a Toxic Industrial Compound (TIC) used in the manufacture of epoxies and resins. This is a highly unstable compound if not handled appropriately, which can result in chemical reactions taking place inside the tank if certain conditions are met. Over the weekend, these conditions resulted in the evacuation of roughly 50,000 people, with local authorities being concerned that the tank might explode. As of this morning, a crack had formed in the tank, relieving the pressure and reducing the risk of an explosion.Separately, a large fire was reported in South Gate, as an automotive facility burned Sunday afternoon. A shelter-in-place order was issued for the local area due to the smoke and the close proximity of the fire to residential communities. Localized power outages were also reported in the neighborhood, but power was restored after the fire was knocked down throughout the evening.In East Los Angeles, a spill of crude oil was reported after a telecoms crew installing fiber optic lines accidentally hit a petroleum pipeline, causing a rupture. This pipeline break resulted in a few thousand gallons of crude entering the storm drains in the vicinity of the intersection of Caesar Chavez and Eastern Avenue.Washington D.C. - Over the weekend, a small arms engagement was reported at the White House, after a man approached the perimeter fence with a handgun. Authorities state that one individual approached a Secret Service checkpoint and drew a firearm from a bag, before engaging the agents at the checkpoint at the corner of 17th Street and Pennsylvania Avenue. Secret Service personnel engaged the shooter, ending the incident. One bystander was wounded during the incident.Analyst Comment: The suspect has been identified as Nasire Best, who had a long history of presenting security threats to the White House. Best had previously attempted to breach the compound in the past, and had also made verbal threats toward Secret Service personnel. In June of last year, Best was arrested after blocking a traffic lane entering the White House compound, and subsequently committed to a mental institution. -----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Over the weekend, several developments have taken place with regards to diplomacy in the Middle East. On Saturday, President Trump announced that a peace deal with Iran was "largely negotiated", subject to the final details being worked out. Almost immediately following this announcement, Iranian state media refuted these claims as not being true, or being different from what has been discussed so far during the negotiations. On Sunday, President Trump reversed his stance on the immediacy of the deal being reached, stating that he has instructed his staff to take their time regarding the details of a deal. This morning, the Iranian Foreign Ministry stated that no deal is on the table, and the deadlock continues.As it stands, it's possible that the weekend shenanigans are the result of a few different theories. For one, the rhetoric from the White House could be the standard effort to calm economic markets. Normally, these "good news" social media posts are issued on Monday mornings shortly before the opening bell on Wall Street, but lately have also been taking place late in the week. Conversely, the confusing messaging regarding a potential peace deal could me more organic...it's not the first time that peace talks have collapsed at the eleventh hour all on their own, or from actions by parties around the region objecting to the deal in some manner.It's also possible that this is a repeat of the now long-forgotten final days before this war began, most notably what transpired in the 72 hours leading up to the February 28th attacks. In retrospect, history indicates that even as the last-minute negotiations were taking place, the decision to use military force had been made many days before the war officially began. Likewise, a similar situation might be getting set up right now; it is possible that the US is transitioning into a renewed targeting effort. Until something happens either way, the three main possibilities remain, just as they have since the start of the ceasefire: Either a deal is reached and everything returns to normal as best it can, or the U.S. returns to bombing and the war resumes, or the stalemate continues as before with no real change to any of the points of deadlock. Time will tell what happens next, but for now nothing is signed and the "pause" to the war continues.Analyst: S2A1 Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground Disclaimer: No LLMs were used in the writing of this report. //END REPORT//

Confira os destaques do Jornal da Manhã deste domingo (24): O pré-candidato à Presidência Renan Santos voltou a criticar a família Bolsonaro e afirmou que a direita errou ao apoiar o ex-presidente Jair Bolsonaro. Ligado ao Movimento Brasil Livre e ao partido Missão, Renan defendeu a construção de uma nova alternativa política para enfrentar o presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva sem associação a escândalos. O pré-candidato também declarou que o Caso Master começou durante o governo Bolsonaro e afirmou considerar natural o envolvimento do senador Flávio Bolsonaro nas investigações relacionadas a Daniel Vorcaro. O Departamento de Defesa dos Estados Unidos divulgou um novo lote de arquivos sobre supostos avistamentos de objetos voadores não identificados. Os documentos incluem relatos de pessoas que afirmaram ter visto esferas verdes, discos e bolas de fogo misteriosas. A divulgação faz parte de um processo iniciado nos anos 1970 para tornar públicos arquivos do governo americano sobre fenômenos aéreos não identificados. O primeiro pacote de documentos já havia sido liberado em maio, por determinação do presidente Donald Trump, junto com a criação do site oficial WAR.GOV/UFO para hospedar os registros sobre os chamados UAPs. Um tiroteio registrado próximo à Casa Branca deixou duas pessoas baleadas neste sábado (23), segundo informações do Serviço Secreto dos Estados Unidos. De acordo com as autoridades, o suspeito sacou uma arma de uma bolsa e começou a atirar na região da rua 17 com a Pennsylvania Avenue. Agentes reagiram aos disparos e atingiram o homem, identificado pela CBS News como Nasire Best, de 21 anos, que morreu após ser levado ao hospital. Um possível transeunte também foi atingido e encaminhado para atendimento médico. Segundo a emissora americana, o suspeito já era conhecido pelas autoridades e tinha histórico de problemas de saúde mental. O Governo de São Paulo promoveu um mutirão digital chamado “Baixaço” para incentivar o download do aplicativo SP Mulher Segura. A plataforma reúne diversas funcionalidades integradas voltadas ao combate à violência doméstica e à proteção das mulheres. A iniciativa busca ampliar o acesso da população às ferramentas de segurança e fortalecer os canais de apoio às vítimas no estado. Um possível acordo entre Irã e Estados Unidos prevê que o tráfego de navios no Estreito de Ormuz volte ao nível anterior à guerra dentro de 30 dias, segundo informações divulgadas pela agência iraniana Tasnim. O memorando de entendimento também prevê a suspensão completa do bloqueio naval no mesmo período e a liberação parcial de fundos iranianos congelados ainda na primeira fase das negociações. O possível acordo inclui o fim da guerra em diferentes frentes e a suspensão das sanções americanas sobre o petróleo iraniano durante o processo de negociação. Apesar disso, o Irã ainda não teria aceitado medidas relacionadas ao seu programa nuclear. Alberto Barros, analista político da Vox Brasil, concedeu entrevista ao Jornal da Manhã para comentar o cenário das pré-campanhas presidenciais, os resultados das pesquisas eleitorais e as perspectivas para as eleições de 2026. Durante a conversa, o analista também avaliou os possíveis impactos do escândalo envolvendo o Banco Master sobre diferentes candidatos e o ambiente político nacional. O Maio Amarelo é um movimento internacional de conscientização criado para reduzir sinistros e mortes no trânsito. Desenvolvida pelo Observatório Nacional de Segurança Viária, a campanha busca colocar a segurança viária em pauta na sociedade e incentivar a participação de motoristas, pedestres e ciclistas na prevenção de acidentes. A iniciativa promove ações educativas e debates sobre responsabilidade e comportamento no trânsito. A Câmara dos Deputados deve votar nesta semana a proposta de emenda à Constituição que prevê o fim da escala 6x1 e reduz a jornada máxima de trabalho de 44 para 40 horas semanais, mantendo os salários atuais e garantindo dois dias de folga por semana aos trabalhadores. Apesar do avanço da proposta, as negociações seguem em andamento e a tendência é que o texto final seja mais enxuto, deixando temas específicos para regulamentação posterior, como os regimes especiais de trabalho, incluindo escalas 12x36 e atividades embarcadas. Para falar sobre o assunto, a Jovem Pan entrevista o deputado federal Luiz Gastão. Essas e outras notícias você acompanha no Jornal da Manhã. Learn more about your ad choices.

From the Rumble Channel. Rabbi Michael Barclay was unable to join me tonight, but I am leaving his links in the description, and I encourage you to check them out.Republican Tennessee House Speaker Cameron Sexton notified Democratic House Minority Leader Karen Camper on Tuesday that members of the Democratic Caucus should expect to receive individual letters removing them from all standing committees and subcommittees in the statehouse, "except where membership is required pursuant to Rule 65 of the House Rules."Once Donald Trump made his return to the White House, we began to see an uptick in media commentators who were generally associated with the political right begin to show signs of support for America's geopolitical enemies, hint at, if not openly make, antisemitic statements, and even make claims that Trump had betrayed MAGA. This activity increased, intensified, and more commentators joined in, after the assassination of Charlie Kirk, to the point that now, some conservative thinkers, authors, and commentators have begun referring to the perpetrators of these activities as "The Woke Right." Rabbi Michael Barclay, host of the radio show and podcast "The Rabbi's Table: Dialogue Not Debate" on CRN Digital Talk Radio, is scheduled to join me to discuss the questions: What is the "Woke Right?" Is this a real thing? Or just a small group of media people who sold out their principles or showed their true colors?Gavin Newsom's 'Digital Equity' program is just one more glaring example of why he should never be allowed near 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. The program under the Newsom administration tossed $189 million of taxpayer funds to ensure criminals had free access to the internet. A program that allowed, no, allows death-row inmates to watch porn and groom children online.On the show "Euphoria," Sydney Sweeney's character has taken on the ridiculous task of doing pornography in order to pay for $50,000 worth of flowers for her wedding.

As working-class Americans demonstrate increasing willingness to support conservative political candidates, some ostensible conservatives—some perhaps in service to their think tank's funders in left-wing Big Philanthropy and others perhaps in the delusion that Big Labor will lead them to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue—have argued that the path to working-class support is through union bosses' marble and stone palaces in Washington, D.C. and other big blue cities. Today's guest brings warnings that that way lies madness—or at least self-inflicted defeat, because those palaces still serve the Left as they have for (at least) almost a century. Today Tom Jones of the American Accountability Foundation brings the receipts, with documentation on how private-sector unions that have Republican members have been using their (often forced) dues to fund the Institutional Left.see lessScathing report claims nation's oldest labor union 'betrayed' MAGA members through 'shocking' spendingDUKE: A Shaky Ceasefire And A Union BetrayalMaking the AFL-CIO great again: labor policy in 2026Some local Teamsters groups announce Harris endorsements after national union declines to do soDoes Big Labor truly represent the American worker?Big Labor sees pensions as a “weapon”

The week ends as May begins and the madness continues. It must be a living hell trying to serve as Julius Geezer's lawyer. The criminal case against James Comey will be an absolute clown show IF it makes it to trial.

Meanwhile, a MAGA influencer comes in from the cold and she comes in with receipts.

I never thought I'd be glued to my screen every morning, coffee in hand, watching the latest twists in Donald Trump's endless courtroom saga, but here we are on this crisp March morning, listeners, with the federal election interference trial kicking off right here in Washington, D.C.'s federal courthouse under Judge Tanya Chutkan. It's March 20, 2026, and after years of delays, motions, and appeals, jury selection began yesterday, March 19, pulling in over 300 potential jurors who had to swear they could set aside Trump's bombastic Truth Social posts and decide the case on facts alone.Picture this: Trump's lawyers, John Lauro and Todd Blanche, back in August 2023, boldly asked for a trial delay all the way to April 2026, citing 11.5 million pages of discovery from Special Counsel Jack Smith's team—enough paper, they joked, to stack eight Washington Monuments high. They argued it mirrored the government's two-and-a-half-year probe into the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot and Trump's alleged schemes to overturn his 2020 loss to Joe Biden. Prosecutors, led by Molly Gaston, fired back hard, calling it a misrepresentation since 65 percent of those documents were duplicates, public records from the House January 6 Select Committee, or Trump's own campaign files and Truth Social rants. They pushed for a speedy January 2024 start, front-loading key evidence like National Archives pulls and witness interview transcripts to avoid any rush-to-judgment excuses.Judge Chutkan, the no-nonsense Obama appointee, wasn't buying the delay tactics. She set March 4, 2024, as the original start, denying the 2026 plea outright, as ABC11 reported, emphasizing that inflammatory comments from Trump about her and Smith only sped things up. But oh, the appeals! The Supreme Court waded in last year, granting immunity for official acts but remanding the case back to Chutkan in early 2025, staying pretrial deadlines until October 2024 under the Speedy Trial Act. Justsecurity.org's master calendar tracked it all: motions on statutory grounds due October 3, 2024; Appointments Clause challenges by October 24; and endless briefing on classified evidence.Trump's plate was overflowing—New York hush money trial with DA Alvin Bragg wrapped in May 2024 with a conviction on 34 felony counts over Stormy Daniels payments; Georgia's RICO case under Fani Willis hit March 4, 2024, arraignment after his Fulton County Jail mugshot surrender, though Mark Meadows fought to move it federal; Florida's Mar-a-Lago classified docs case under Judge Aileen Cannon dragged to a May 2024 jury before fizzling on procedural grounds; and civil hits like E. Jean Carroll's defamation suits, with a second appeals court nod in late 2024.Now, as opening statements loom next week, Smith's team accuses Trump of three conspiracies to derail power transfer via fake electors, pressure on Mike Pence, and disinformation floods. Trump's defense screams political persecution, eyeing a potential 2028 run. Protesters clash outside on Pennsylvania Avenue, supporters wave MAGA flags, while inside, the air's thick with history—could this end with conviction on four felony counts, prison time, or another mistrial dodge?Whew, what a whirlwind, listeners.

Washington, D.C.March 3, 1913. The day before Woodrow Wilson's inauguration, a twenty-six-year-old lawyer named Inez Milholland climbed onto a white horse and led more than five thousand women down Pennsylvania Avenue in the largest suffrage demonstration the nation had ever seen. They never made it four blocks before a mob of a quarter million men surged into the street. Women were grabbed, shoved, spat upon, and pelted with bottles while D.C. police laughed along with the crowd. Over a hundred marchers were hospitalized. Helen Keller was so shaken she couldn't speak. The cavalry had to be called from Fort Myer to restore order. Meanwhile, Ida B. Wells-Barnett defied orders to march in the back of the parade and took her rightful place with the Illinois delegation. The resulting scandal cost the police superintendent his career — and gave the suffrage movement the momentum that would carry it to the Nineteenth Amendment.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-historian--2909311/support.You can pay more if you want to, but rent at the Safe House is still just a buck a week, and you can get access to over 400 ad-free episodes from the dusty vault, Safe House Exclusives, direct access to the Boss, and whatever personal services you require.We invite you to our other PULPULAR MEDIA podcasts:If disaster is more your jam, check out CATASTROPHIC CALAMITIES, telling the stories of famous and forgotten tragedies of the 19th and 20th centuries. What could go wrong?

It would be funny if it wasn't so damn serious, but there is a less-than-zero chance that Kamala Harris could be the President of the United States of America at literally any minute, and perhaps for four full years. The clown show and soft coup currently happening inside 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue is befitting for one of the worst presidential administrations in American political history.Kamala Harris is staggeringly unqualified to be the president, but the mainstream media is doing what they do best by rewriting history by erasing her as Biden's Border Czar, to borrow a term from the Marxist, Barack Obama, a man who understands that she has no path to the White House. It is also worth mentioning that she has had a 92% turnover rate inside her office, making it is clear that there are already major issues and everyone knows who is to blame.—Watch the video version on one of the Macroaggressions Channels:Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/Macroaggressions YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MacroaggressionsPodcast—MACRO & Charlie Robinson LinksHypocrazy Audiobook: https://amzn.to/4aogwmsThe Octopus of Global Control Audiobook: https://amzn.to/3xu0rMmWebsite: www.Macroaggressions.io Merch Store: https://macroaggressions.dashery.com/ Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/macroaggressionspodcast—Activist Post FamilyActivist Post: www.ActivistPost.com Natural Blaze: www.NaturalBlaze.com —Support Our SponsorsAnarchapulco: https://anarchapulco.com/ | Promo Code: MACROC60 Power: https://go.shopc60.com/PBGRT/KMKS9/ | Promo Code: MACROChemical Free Body: https://chemicalfreebody.com/macro/ | Promo Code: MACROWise Wolf Gold & Silver: https://macroaggressions.gold/ | (800) 426-1836LegalShield: www.DontGetPushedAround.com EMP Shield: www.EMPShield.com | Promo Code: MACROGround Luxe Grounding Mats: https://groundluxe.com/MACRO Christian Yordanov's Health Program: www.LiveLongerFormula.com/macro Above Phone: https://abovephone.com/macro/Van Man: https://vanman.shop/?ref=MACRO | Promo Code: MACROThe Dollar Vigilante: https://dollarvigilante.spiffy.co/a/O3wCWenlXN/4471 Nesa's Hemp: www.NesasHemp.com | Promo Code: MACROAugason Farms: https://augasonfarms.com/MACRO —

Jeff & Shannon break down Don Lemon's federal arrest over Minnesota church disruption, celebrate Trump's EO for the epic DC IndyCar race, and continue exposing elite bloodlines via Bundy & Collins deep dive. Tune in at Rumble, YouTube, X, and Red State Talk Radio!   Lock and load, patriots—@intheMatrixxx and @shadygrooove charge into Season 8, Episode 020, “Don Lemon Cuffed, Partial Government Shutdown?; Part 4: Follow the Bloodlines,” airing January 30, 2026, at 12:05 PM Eastern, ripping apart the latest establishment chaos with unfiltered fire. They spotlight Don Lemon's federal arrest for his role in disrupting a Minnesota church service during an anti-ICE protest, questioning MSM spin on "journalism" versus actual interference with worship rights under laws like the FACE Act. Then, they hail President Trump's fresh executive order launching the Freedom 250 Grand Prix—an IndyCar street race roaring through D.C. streets near the National Mall August 21-23 for America's 250th birthday, with cars hitting 190 mph on Pennsylvania Avenue, backed by Roger Penske, Sean Duffy, and Doug Burgum as a bold symbol of American speed and greatness. Shifting gears to Part 4 of their bloodlines investigation, the duo reads from Fritz Springmeier's "Bloodlines of the Illuminati," dissecting the Bundy family's rapid, unexplained rises (like McGeorge Bundy's Skull & Bones ties and promotions) and the Collins clan's alleged deep occult connections, including modern figures in Senate, media, NIH, and Hollywood. They field insane viewer questions, dig into old mailbag gems thanking supporters like Dragon Slap and HTMA Anon, and stand firm against movement critics pushing psyops.

AP correspondent Ed Donahue reports IndyCar is coming to Washington, D.C.

New York Times columnist Andrew Ross Sorkin, a student of past financial calamities, talks about the likelihood the U.S. economy could be headed toward another crisis. He says there are concerns about the impact of AI, crypto currencies and shadowy investment firms operating outside the regulated banking system. How the nation fares, he says, depends much on the judgement, and perhaps financial interests of Donald Trump. “The entire business world now runs through one address – 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue – and to some degree through the prism of the whim of one individual,” Sorkin says. His new book, 1929, is about the financial panic that led to the Great Depression.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

HOUR 1Marjorie Taylor Greene's '60 Minutes' interview went over like a lead balloon at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, but she managed to spill the GOP tea for everyone else eager for a pot-stirring. Ron weaved through the juiciest bits, then hopped on a call with CBS News DC correspondent Stacy Lyn for Trump's reaction. Meanwhile, the "near miss" in Tennessee's special House race last week has Georgia candidates like Lexy Doherty feeling vastly more hopeful about prospects for seat flips in 2026. She and Ron caught up to discuss Trump's maneuver to fling $12 billion in taxpayer dollars to salve the wounds inflicted on farmers after his tariff & trade policy war with China left many in financial dire straits. HOUR 2Ron argued against liberals taking the bait: complaining about fee-free National Park days isn't worth the energy. Patricia Murphy's AJC op/ed reviews the Trump election interference case and argues it shouldn't be forgotten. Meanwhile, Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger may have a better argument to undo Lt. Governor Burt Jones' sizable fundraising advantage, which has Ron wondering why the ATTORNEY general - Chris Carr - didn't think of it.Colton Moore officially announced his bid to win MTG's 14th Congressional district. Ron's next guest - Marisa Mecke from Atlanta NPR affiliate WABE - spotlights their series: "Server South"- answering Ron's many queries about Atlanta and Georgia's appeal for data center construction, and the impacts they'd have on power and water usage, among other things.

In this Vapid Response double feature, Thomas, Matt, and Lydia are haunted by two ghoulish takes from the past:  FEATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON: Politico's insanely longform access journalism piece from August 2024 on how Project 2025 was so totally over, just never happening, nothing to see here EROSSERHEAD: New York Times resident traditional conservative Ross Douthat's 2015 analysis of why Donald Trump is definitely not a fascist We then screen a short horror film recently shot at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. “The Inside Story of How Project 2025 Fell Apart,” Ian Ward, POLITICO (8/2/2024) Project 2025 Tracker - Home “Opinion | Is Donald Trump a Fascist?,” Ross Douthat,  The New York Times  (12/3/2015)

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for October 24, 2025. 0:30 Has James Carville finally gone off the deep end? We react to the “Ragin’ Cajun’s” shocking rant, where he fantasizes about shaving the heads of Trump supporters, dressing them in orange jumpsuits, and parading them down Pennsylvania Avenue to be spat upon. And we unpack the left’s obsession with public shaming and “thought crimes" and thechilling parallels to Orwell’s 1984 and the real-world silencing of conservatives during the COVID era. 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. President Trump has terminated all trade negotiations with Canada over a TV ad that features a clip of President Ronald Reagan seemingly denouncing tariffs. Inflation ticked up a bit in September, but not as much as was expected. The USS Gerald Ford Aircraft Group is moving into the Caribbean sea as the US is ramping up military strikes against drug runners coming from South America. 12:30 Get NSorb from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:30 We dig into the spiritual sickness spreading through half of America: a willful blindness where truth, logic, and reason no longer matter, only outrage. From Trump Derangement Syndrome to a culture that prizes victimhood over virtue, we explore how emotion has replaced truth on the left. 16:30 We ask American Mamas — Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson — how they can be okay with Donald Trump tearing down part of the White House. We unpack the latest round of media outrage, sparked by Trump’s privately funded ballroom project. From Chelsea Clinton’s dramatic tweets to Hakeem Jeffries’ call for an investigation, we dig into the hypocrisy surrounding presidential renovations. Nearly every president—from Teddy Roosevelt to Barack Obama—has left their mark on the White House. So why is it suddenly a scandal when President Trump does the same? 23:00 House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is endorsing Zoran Mamdani—a New York politician so far left, he makes Bernie Sanders look like Milton Friedman. We unpack Mamdani’s extremist rhetoric, including his call to “globalize the Intifada,” and what that really means for Jewish communities at home and abroad. 25:30 What exactly is the “Trump Doctrine”? It's simple: be nice to me, I’ll be nice to you — cross me, and you’ll regret it. We break down President Trump’s decision to hold off on deploying the National Guard to crime-ridden San Francisco after a respectful call from the city’s Democratic mayor, Daniel Lurie. It's a perfect example of Trump’s “tit-for-tat” strategy in action — strength tempered by reason, toughness balanced with generosity. 32:30 Get Prodovite from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 33:30 Canada just got a cold dose of the Trump Doctrine. We break down the fallout after Ontario Premier Doug Ford pulled a $75 million taxpayer-funded ad campaign that deceptively used Ronald Reagan’s words to attack U.S. tariffs. Turns out, the ad violated Canadian law — and when Trump found out, he didn’t just hit back, he shut down the negotiations altogether. 36:00 Plus, it's Fake News Friday! We're putting you to the test with our weekly game of headlines—are they real news, fake news, or really fake news? From Trump flyingan F-16 and dumping poo on protestors, to a White House ballroom ball pit, and a Democrat Senate candidate's Nazi tattoo, can you spot the fake news? Play along, keep score, and share your results with us on Facebook page: facebook.com/AmericanGroundRadio. 40:30 As the media piles on ICE once again, we take a step back to ask a simple question: what’s to hate about enforcing the law? From sanctuary city standoffs to repeat offenders shielded by politics, Immigration and Customs Enforcement has become a symbol of accountability in an age of chaos. It's not cruelty — it’s common sense — and that Americans are finally saying “whoa” to open borders and lawlessness. 42:00 And we finish off with some words of wisdom about the White House.

In this episode, the fellas discuss the current construction going on at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, the latest in the NFL, the start of the NBA, kitchen appliance updates and SAS vs sanity. 

The White House, at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington, D.C., is perhaps the most recognisable home in the world. Built soon after the Americans won their independence from Britain at the end of the 18th century, it has been the stage upon which various seismic moments in the history of America and across the globe have played out.   So how did this iconic building come to exist? What monumental events have occurred within its walls? And how does the White House itself reflect America's ever-changing role in the world?

https://www.astralcodexten.com/p/sources-say-bay-area-house-party [previously in series: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7] Something is off about this Bay Area House Party. There are . . . women. “I've never seen a gender balance like this in the Bay Area,” you tell your host Chris. “Is this one of those fabled ratio parties?” “No - have you heard of curtfishing? It's the new male dating trend. You say in your Bumble profile that you're a member of the Dissident Right who often attends parties with Curtis Yarvin. Then female journos ask you out in the hopes that you'll bring them along and they can turn it into an article.” “What happens when they realize Curtis Yarvin isn't at the party?” “Oh, everyone pools their money and hires someone to pretend to be Curtis. You can just do things. Today it's Ramchandra.” You follow his gaze, and there is Ramchandra, hair greased back, wearing a leather jacket, surrounded by a crowd of young women. “When I say I'm against furries,” he's explaining, staccato, at 120 wpm, “I mean the sort of captured furries you get under the post-Warren-G-Harding liberal order, the ones getting the fat checks from the Armenians at Harvard and the Department of Energy. I love real furries, the kind you would have found in 1920s New Mexico eating crocodile steaks with Baron von Ungern-Sternberg! Some of my best friends are furries, as de Broglie-Bohm and my sainted mother used to say! Just watch out for the Kikuyu, that's my advice! Hahahahahaha!” Some of the women are taking notes. “But enough about me. When I was seventeen, I spent seven weeks in Bensonhurst - that's in the Rotten Apple, in case you can't tell your Nepalis from your Neapolitans. A dear uncle of mine, after whom I was named…” “Ramchandra is pretty good,” you admit. “Still, if it were me I would have gone with a white guy.” “It's fine,” says Chris. “Curtis describes himself as a mischling, and none of the journos know what that means.” Ramchandra is still talking. “Of course, strawberries have only been strawberries since after the Kronstadt Rebellion. Before that, strawberries were just pears. You had to get them hand-painted red by Gypsies, if you can believe that. Gypsies! So if you hear someone from west of Pennsylvania Avenue mention ‘strawberries', that's what we in the business call il significanto.” “I admit he has talent,“ you say. “But this curtfishing thing - surely at some point your date realizes that you're not actually a high-status yet problematic bad boy who can further her career just by existing, and then she ghosts you, right?” “That's every date in San Francisco. But when you curtfish, sometimes she comps your meal from her expense account. It's a strict Pareto improvement!” After some thought, you agree this is a great strategy with no downsides, maybe the biggest innovation in dating since the invention of alcohol. Having failed to bring your own journo to the party, you look for one who seems unattached. You catch the eye of a blonde woman who introduces herself as Gabrielle, and you try to give her the least autistic “Hello” of which you are capable.

The White House has been home to a menagerie of pets, from working animals such as horses and sheep, to companions of the Scottish Terrier and Siamese cat varieties - with the odd raccoon, cow, or badger thrown in, as well. Like the almost 90 million American households who have a pet, many First Families have brought animals home even when the address was 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. White House Historical Association president Stewart McLaurin meets Alan Price, director of the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum, and takes a tour of their new exhibit, Presidential Pets. Museum curators have gathered rarely seen items from their own collection, including dog biscuits kept in President Kennedy's desk to feed the pups who visited him in the Oval Office. Other Presidential Libraries and Museums have loaned dozens of items to help tell the story of the creatures who have inhabited the White House. In this episode you'll see a Navy coat made for Fala, the beloved Scottie of President Franklin D. Roosevelt; a doghouse in the shape of the White House made for Rex, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel cherished by the Reagans; a saddle and riding crop used by President Theodore Roosevelt; and a rare look at a passport made for Pushinka, the dog gifted by Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev to the Kennedy family. The exhibit runs through April 26, 2026 at the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum.A copy of the White House History Quarterly  “Animals at Work in White House History” edition can be purchased at this link.

Send us a textIn this episode, MJ and Rasheem explore the legacy and continued relevance of poor Black women's activism in Baltimore, focusing on housing justice and welfare rights. Drawing on Rhonda Y. Williams' seminal article, “We're Tired of Being Treated Like Dogs,” the hosts delve into the political lives of Black women who mobilized against institutional neglect and economic exploitation from the 1960s to the present.The conversation centers on the historical and grassroots efforts of Black women like Margaret McCarty and Rev. Annie Chambers, who turned personal struggle into collective resistance. Organizations like U-JOIN (Union for Jobs or Income Now) and Mother Rescuers from Poverty emerged from East Baltimore's neighborhoods and housing complexes such as Murphy Homes, O'Donnell Heights, and Gilmore Homes—communities marked by poverty but rich in organizing tradition.Rasheem details how federal surveillance, welfare fraud prosecutions, and slumlord neglect were met with tenant strikes, welfare marches, and legislative advocacy. Leaders challenged both structural racism and class exploitation, drawing on a Black Radical Tradition that was grassroots-based, anti-capitalist, and unapologetically of the people.Key locations such as North Gay Street and Pennsylvania Avenue serve as landmarks of resistance, while institutions like the Soul School became spaces of political education. The episode also touches on national allies like CORE and speakers such as Stokely Carmichael and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., who amplified the local struggle on a national stage.MJ and Rasheem conclude by reflecting on what today's organizers can learn from this era: the power of coalition-building, the necessity of political independence, and the importance of reclaiming radical traditions that center the voices of poor Black women in the fight for housing, dignity, and justice.Main Themes:Housing activism as a form of defense of home and selfThe central role of Black women in welfare rights organizingTension between Black capitalism and Black radical politicsPolitical consciousness and grassroots leadership among poor communitiesLessons for contemporary housing and labor justice movements in BaltimoreSupport the showIn Search of Black Power is a Black-owned internet show and podcast.

Community leaders and educators will be here to share with us the changes that have helped keep the city thriving.

HOUSE-CALLING ON DR. WIN THE WAR: 4/4: Mr. Churchill in the White House: The Untold Story of a Prime Minister and Two Presidents by  Robert Schmuhl  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Mr-Churchill-White-House-Presidents/dp/1324093420 Well into the twenty-first century, Winston Churchill continues to be the subject of scores of books. Biographers portray him as a soldier, statesman, writer, painter, and even a daredevil, but Robert Schmuhl, the noted author and journalist, may be the first to depict him as a demanding, indeed exhausting White House guest. For the British prime minister, America's most famous residence was “the summit of the United States,” and staying weeks on end with the president as host enhanced his global influence and prestige, yet what makes Churchill's sojourns so remarkable are their duration at critical moments in twentieth-century history. From his first visit in 1941 to his last one eighteen years later, Churchill made himself at home in the White House, seeking to disprove Benjamin Franklin's adage that guests, like fish, smell after three days. When obliged to be attired, Churchill shuffled about in velvet slippers and a tailored-for-air-raids “siren suit,” resembling a romper. In retrospect, these extended stays at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue take on a new level of diplomatic and military significance. Just imagine, for example, Ukraine's president Volodymyr Zelensky spending weeks at America's most powerful address, discussing war strategy and access to weaponry, as Churchill did during the 1940s. Drawing on years of research, Schmuhl not only contextualizes the unprecedented time Churchill and President Franklin D. Roosevelt spent together between 1941 and 1945, but he also depicts the individual figures involved: from Churchill himself to “General Ike,” as he affectionately called Dwight D. Eisenhower, to Harry Truman, and not to mention the formidable Eleanor Roosevelt, who resented Churchill's presence in the White House and wanted him to occupy the nearby Blair House instead (which, predictably, he did not do) 1944

WIN THE WAR: 1/4: Mr. Churchill in the White House: The Untold Story of a Prime Minister and Two Presidents by  Robert Schmuhl  (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Mr-Churchill-White-House-Presidents/dp/1324093420 Well into the twenty-first century, Winston Churchill continues to be the subject of scores of books. Biographers portray him as a soldier, statesman, writer, painter, and even a daredevil, but Robert Schmuhl, the noted author and journalist, may be the first to depict him as a demanding, indeed exhausting White House guest. For the British prime minister, America's most famous residence was “the summit of the United States,” and staying weeks on end with the president as host enhanced his global influence and prestige, yet what makes Churchill's sojourns so remarkable are their duration at critical moments in twentieth-century history. From his first visit in 1941 to his last one eighteen years later, Churchill made himself at home in the White House, seeking to disprove Benjamin Franklin's adage that guests, like fish, smell after three days.
