Após semanas de especulações, LeBron James, de 41 anos, decidiu encerrar a carreira no Philadelphia 76ers, num contrato de dois anos, onde o segundo fica a escolha do atleta, que receberá salário total de US$ 8 milhões.O Rei jogará sua 24ª temporada de NBA, pelo quarta franquia diferente, em busca de seu 5º título: "ainda quero competir, vencer e ter a chance de sentir a emoção de conquistar mais um campeonato", disse a lenda em publicação no X, o antigo Twitter.Anunciada sexta-feira passada, 24/07, a notícia sacudiu o mundo dos esportes. Os quatro modelos de camisa dos Sixers com o nome e o número 23 de LeBron James se esgotaram nas vendas on-line no site da Fanatics em cerca de duas horas após a disponibilização. Além disso, um estudo da consultoria The Boyd Company diz que a chegada de LeBron, entre turismo, hotelaria, restaurantes, ingressos, produtos oficiais e exposição internacional da cidade, pode movimentar até US$ 430 milhões na economia da Filadélfia durante seu primeiro ano no município, o sexto mais populoso dos Estados Unidos.Segundo apuração do ge.globo junto ao Front Office Sports, a chegada de LeBron também alterou o calendário da liga, pois, além dos Sixers estar presente no dia de abertura da temporada e na rodada de natal, "o Philadelphia 76ers passará de 14 para 34 jogos transmitidos em rede nacional na temporada 2026/27, alcançando o limite máximo permitido pela NBA". Ainda nessa linha, a ida de LeBron James para a Conferência Leste proporciona que os jogos do astro sejam mais cedo para nós brasileiros, já que as partidas do 76ers costumam começar entre 20h e 21h no horário de Brasília devido à proximidade do horário local da Filadélfia (uma hora atrás durante o horário de verão local e duas durante o horário convencional).A plataforma TickPick apresenta que a decisão de LeBron já afetou os preços dos jogos do Philadelphia 76ers em casa. Na temporada 2025/26, o preço médio do ingresso para acompanhar a equipe in loco era US$ 68, mas "após o anúncio da contratação de LeBron, o ingresso mais barato para o primeiro jogo de pré-temporada da equipe em casa chegou a US$ 283, mesmo sem a confirmação de que o jogador estará em quadra", conforme publicação do ge.globo.James também já foi homenageado pelo governo do estado da Pensilvânia, onde fica a cidade da Filadélfia. O governador Josh Shapiro publicou um decreto nas redes sociais em que estabelece 24 de julho, quando a notícia da movimentação de James foi publicada, o "Dia de Lebron James" como "reconhecimento à carreira repleta de recordes de LeBron, conquistas esportivas inigualáveis, generoso trabalho filantrópico e um futuro brilhante na Filadélfia", conforme reprodução do ge.globo.LeBron, além de dizer que esta é a última decisão da carreira, finaliza seu texto no X dizendo "acredito que posso ajudar a transformar o Philadelphia 76ers em um time campeão e estou muito animado para inspirar uma nova torcida e começar essa jornada incrível pela última vez".Hoje, como não poderia deixar de ser, o tema do Bola Laranja é LeBron James.Seja bem-vindo ao canal do Bola Laranja!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Siga o Bola Laranja no Instagram!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SEJA MEMBRO DO BOLA LARANJA NO YOUTUBE⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Os melhores produtos Nike estão no Bola Laranja Store!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠O melhor conteúdo da NBA você encontra aqui!

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Buy Sophie Cunningham's Jersey! (HR 1, Seg 1) Bland white guy predictions (HR 1, Seg 2) Rut on the Truth about T and the military (HR 2, Seg 3) Steve Deace with Big Odyssey Thoughts (HR 3, Seg 3) Clay and Buck focused heavily on the growing cultural and political battle surrounding women's sports, transgender athlete participation, WNBA star Sophie Cunningham, and the future direction of the Democrat Party heading into the 2028 presidential election cycle. The hour opened with extensive discussion of Cunningham's comments defending the idea that biological males should not compete in women's sports. The hosts praised the WNBA player for refusing to backtrack under media pressure and highlighted her statements that women's athletic opportunities and protections under Title IX should be preserved. They contrasted Cunningham's position with arguments from progressive activists and former soccer star Megan Rapinoe, framing the debate as one of fairness, biological differences, women's rights, and the future of female athletics. The conversation also explored public reaction to Cunningham's comments, growing support from athletes and fans, and the broader cultural implications of high-profile female athletes speaking out on controversial issues. The hosts then turned to what they described as increasing political activism and ideological bias within the sports media. They criticized coverage surrounding Caitlin Clark, the WNBA, race, and identity politics, including commentary that linked Clark's popularity to broader social and racial debates. Clay and Buck argued that sports journalism has become increasingly politicized and used the discussion to examine how cultural issues influence public opinion and electoral politics. Throughout the segment, they emphasized the connection they see between winning cultural debates and winning elections, arguing that public support for figures like Sophie Cunningham reflects larger shifts in American opinion on gender, sports, and free expression. A major political segment focused on the Democratic Party's developing 2028 presidential primary landscape. Clay and Buck analyzed reports that Democratic leaders are debating whether South Carolina or Nevada should hold the first presidential contest, framing the dispute as a contest between key Democratic voting blocs, particularly Black and Hispanic voters. The hosts discussed how the primary calendar could shape potential candidacies from figures including Kamala Harris, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC), Gavin Newsom, Mark Kelly, Andy Beshear, Pete Buttigieg, Wes Moore, Josh Shapiro, and others. They examined the strategic advantages different states could provide various candidates and debated whether Democratic leaders are trying to influence the nomination process through primary scheduling decisions. The guys speak with former Navy SEAL David Rutherford, host of The David Rutherford Show and a member of the Clay & Buck Podcast Network. Rutherford first shared stories from a recent African safari in South Africa, including close encounters with lions, buffalo, hippos, crocodiles, and other wildlife. The discussion covered the realities of safari tourism, animal behavior, and the expertise required to safely navigate the African wilderness. The interview then moved into military readiness, veteran health, and national security issues. Rutherford praised new Pentagon attention to what he described as "operator syndrome," a collection of physical and psychological health challenges experienced by military personnel exposed to years of combat deployments and high-intensity operations. He specifically discussed the Department of Defense’s growing focus on testosterone levels, endocrine health, hormone replacement therapy (TRT), mental health, sleep performance, and long-term care for active-duty service members and veterans. Rutherford argued that recognizing these issues could significantly improve military preparedness, recovery, and overall quality of life for warfighters. The hosts also examined escalating U.S.-Iran tensions, Middle East security concerns, military deployments, oil shipping routes, and potential military strategy. Rutherford discussed threats to American interests in the region, attacks on U.S. installations, instability surrounding the Strait of Hormuz, and the possibility of future ground operations in Iran. The conversation explored strategic military options, force deployment considerations, and the political implications of an expanded conflict as the country approaches the midterm election cycle. Clay and Buck also discussed how ongoing wars and overseas military engagements could influence voter attitudes and congressional races. Steve Deace joined the show to discuss Iowa politics, the state’s upcoming statewide elections, and the political environment heading into future campaign cycles. Deace analyzed the strength of Democratic candidates in Iowa, Republican prospects, voter registration trends, and the changing electoral landscape. The conversation then turned to entertainment and culture, focusing heavily on Christopher Nolan’s film adaptation of The Odyssey. Deace offered a sharply critical review of the movie, arguing that it deviates significantly from the original source material and reflects broader trends in Hollywood storytelling. The hosts discussed movie production, cultural messaging in entertainment, sound design issues in modern filmmaking, and the opportunity they believe exists for filmmakers to create stories aimed at mass audiences without overt political messaging. The discussion expanded into Hollywood, conservative media, independent filmmaking, storytelling, faith-based entertainment, cultural influence, and audience demand for non-political content. Deace argued that many successful modern films focus too heavily on ideological objectives rather than compelling storytelling. Clay and Buck agreed, suggesting that there is significant market demand for films that prioritize strong narratives over political agendas. They explored how storytelling shapes culture and the role entertainment can play in influencing public opinion. The hosts returned to the subject of Sophie Cunningham, Caitlin Clark, women’s sports, and transgender athlete policies, with Deace praising Cunningham’s refusal to retreat from her position. He argued that standing by one’s beliefs in the face of organized criticism is just as significant as the position itself. The group also analyzed Caitlin Clark’s unique impact on professional basketball, her historic popularity, and the complicated relationship between her fan base and portions of the sports media establishment.

Stephen A. Smith joins Donny to relive the New York Knicks' first championship since 1973 — the heartbreak of Ewing, Starks, and Reggie Miller's eight points in nine seconds, finally exorcised 39 days ago. From there, the conversation turns to politics: Stephen A. explains why he won't run for president, calls out the Democratic Party's socialist drift, and names his picks for 2028 (Josh Shapiro, Wes Moore, Marco Rubio) while explaining his distrust of JD Vance. He also digs into Netanyahu's role in fueling antisemitism, the complicated politics around Caitlin Clark and the WNBA, and closes with a blunt take on why Trump still won't let go of the "big lie."

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they focus on New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani admitting he has no power to arrest Benjamin Netanyahu, two far-left Dems getting confused over which Jewish Democrat named Josh they were attacking, Texas Rep. Brandon Gill exposing the absurdity of policies at the Smithsonian, and the Trump administration refusing to help the Tate brothers as they face more serious charges.First, they get a kick out of Mayor Mamdani trying to issue a tough denunciation of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Betanyahu while feebly admitting what we've always known: He has no power to arrest Netanyahu. Jim wonders if the left enjoys dreaming of things like arresting Netanyahu when they have to know it's never going to happen.Next, they roll their eyes as "Squad" member and Pennsylvania Rep. Summer Lee confuses Democrat New Jersey Rep. Josh Gottheimer with her own governor, Josh Shapiro, in trying to attack Gottheimer because he's critical of the socialist movement trying to take over the party. Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar tried to help Rep. Lee but only ended up adding to their humiliation.Then, they pop the popcorn and enjoy watching Texas Rep. Brandon Gill slice and dice another woke witness in front of Congress. This time National Museum of American History Director Anthea Hartig was forced to answer for the Smithsonian's description/stereotype of white culture, which is indefensibly racist towards non-whites.Finally, they applaud President Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio for refusing to help the despicable Tate brothers fight extradition to the United Kingdom.Please visit our great sponsors:BetterHelpDon't let stigma stand in the way of support.

A former soldier just set off an incendiary device and fired an airsoft rifle right outside 26 Federal Plaza — the building that houses ICE and immigration courts. This wasn't random. Andrew Arrabaca, a 43-year-old Army veteran and National Guardsman, showed up armed with axes, a machete, knives, fireworks, and a cart reading “ICE off our streets.” He poured flammable liquid, lit the blaze, fired pellets at the building, and told investigators he didn't care if he killed people. The FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force is investigating it as a potential terror attack. Four people were hurt. Security tackled him. This is where anti-ICE extremism leads when it moves beyond protests. Americans who've watched open borders, sanctuary cities, and nonstop attacks on ICE have seen this radicalization coming — and now it's here.

Are software "patches" really the key to securing America's voting system—or just the latest administrative shell game designed to preserve a broken status quo? In this explosive episode, we dismantle recent media narratives around electronic voting machines and the fierce backlash ignited across the election integrity movement. Featuring sharp commentary from Joe, we break down why quick technical fixes fail to restore public trust and why the demand for truly free, fair, and transparent elections is stronger than ever.Joining the broadcast is David Clements, host of The Professor's Record, to deliver a hard-hitting analysis of what real political accountability must look like. Together, we expose the systemic gaslighting pushing through the political landscape—from Virginia Senator Mark Warner's shifting rhetoric on Voter ID to Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro's partisan attacks on election integrity advocates.Beyond the ballot box, the fallout of compromised leadership and unchecked deception is reaching a boiling point. We unpack the growing climate of division and unrest across the country, examining the dramatic arson attempt outside Lower Manhattan's federal court, radical posturing at the College Democrats convention, and severe international security warnings issued to Americans. Tune in for an unvarnished, high-stakes discussion on the chaos created by stolen trust—and what citizens must do to reclaim the nation.

The battle over replacing displays at the President's House exhibit on Independence Mall has bounced through the courts for a while, but, at least for now, the saga seems to be over.

Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: Would a 2028 Democratic contender benefit from taking on the socialist wing now? Michael revisits Bill Clinton's famous "Sister Souljah moment" from 1992, and asks whether today's Democratic Party is approaching a similar political crossroads. As Democratic Socialists gain momentum in key primaries, is there an opening for a 2028 presidential hopeful to draw a clear ideological line—or would that fracture the party before the general election? Featuring analysis of Josh Shapiro, Rahm Emanuel, Bernie Sanders' influence, and Bill Daley's warning about a potential "Tea Party trap," this episode explores the strategic debate shaping the Democrats' future.

Ralph speaks to historian Omer Bartov about his new book “Israel: What Went Wrong?” with special guest, international law expert Bruce FeinBruce Fein is a Constitutional scholar and an expert on international law. Mr. Fein was Associate Deputy Attorney General under Ronald Reagan and he is the author of Constitutional Peril: The Life and Death Struggle for Our Constitution and Democracy, and American Empire: Before the Fall.Many of the things that you describe in Israel apply in spades in the United States. We also have an administration that says we're being invaded militarily by Venezuela gangs, so we have to go kidnap their president and annex Venezuela. We've stated that Iran is an existential threat to the United States because at some future time, it's conceivable they may get one nuclear weapon. We have 5,000, Israel probably has 300 or 400. Or make the argument that we are being invaded by defenseless immigrants across the southern border. And it does seem to me that all countries—I don't think it's unique anyway to the United States or Israel, but it's generally true those in power are there to manufacture fear, to inflate fleas into elephants and say “My gosh, tomorrow the sky is falling down. We need to have national emergencies, rule by decree.” Everything is “an imminent danger”, the Communist domino theory. It's a very challenging issue. I say what you've described in Israel is not unique to Israel. We confront it every day right in the United States. And it works.Bruce FeinOmer Bartov is the Dean's Professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Brown University. A historian, Professor Bartov was born on a kibbutz, grew up in Tel Aviv, and served in the Israel Defense Forces during the Yom Kippur War. He went on to become a leading scholar of the German army and the Holocaust, before turning his attention to his native country. His early research concerned the Nazi indoctrination of the Wehrmacht and the crimes it committed in World War II. He then turned to the links between total war and genocide and interethnic relations in the borderlands of Eastern Europe. His current interest is reflected in his recent books, Genocide, the Holocaust and Israel-Palestine: First-Person History in Times of Crisis, Israel: What Went Wrong?, and the forthcoming The Broken Promise: A Personal Political History of Israel and Palestine. The whole idea of creating a Jewish state (and it says so in the Proclamation of the State from May 1948) is that it would be a state for Jews—that it would be both Jewish and democratic. And that has proven to be not possible. A Jewish state can be both Jewish and democratic only if the overwhelming majority (if not all) of its citizens are Jews.Omer Bartov[Zionist zealots] believe that history is on their side—so in that sense, they are similar to Communists they're similar to Fascists they're similar to Nazis in that they believe that they can see the way forward, they know the logic of history, and the logic of history as they see it is on their side.Omer BartovIn Israel, since the 1980s (really since after the War of 1973, with the rise of the right wing in Israel in particular) the Holocaust has come to serve a particular purpose. Instead of being commemorated as an event that happened in the past that we should remember and commemorate and research, it's become a kind of image of an imminent danger to Israel. And the farther Israel has moved from the actual event of the Holocaust, and the more the Israeli army has become the military hegemon in its region, the more this alleged threat of an “Auschwitz around the corner” has been used by Israeli governments. Why has it been used? Because Israel actually needs to explain to itself and to its citizens: Why is it bossing it over millions of Palestinians? Half of the population under Israeli control are Palestinians. Two million are citizens, but they don't have equal rights, and the others have no rights at all (they're simply under arbitrary military rule). So how do you explain that? You explain that by telling your population and the rest of the world that those Palestinians—who have no power, who can never pose a threat to you—are an existential threat. And in Israel, that has worked quite well.Omer BartovBecause of the focus on Hebrew—to create Hebrew as a mother tongue for children whose mothers didn't speak Hebrew—because of that, there was a great antagonism towards speaking any other language. And the notion of having bilingual schools (that is, of having schools in Palestine where people would learn both Hebrew and Arabic, the language of the place) is not entertained by the vast majority of educators. Now, if you think about what would have been the result of having bilingual schools already in the 1920s and 30s, that children could speak each other's language and recognize each other's culture—that could have had a huge effect on how Zionism developed and how the state would have developed. But in today's Israel, the only bilingual population are the Palestinians. Palestinian citizens of Israel speak Arabic and Hebrew. Most Israelis don't speak Arabic. And most Israelis who trace themselves (quite large numbers) not to Europe, but to North Africa and the Middle East, where their parents and grandparents spoke Arabic (this was their language) have forgotten that language and were ashamed of their parents speaking it because it associated them with the Arabs. So the loss in this kind of creation of a nation around one language was the ability to imagine yourself as sharing the space with another group.Omer Bartov * Our top story concerns a progressive insurgent running in a must-win Senate race – and not the one you're thinking of. Late last week, Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed won the endorsement of Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. The New York Times notes that this is AOC's first Senate endorsement of this cycle, coming just about a month ahead of the August 4th Michigan primary. El-Sayed is quoted saying that he is “honored for what her support says about what this campaign is building and what we're fighting for,” adding that he thinks that “too many establishment Democrats are…afraid that I will win.” He pointedly attacked Senator Chuck Schumer, charging that the Minority Leader “doesn't want to see me on the inside of the U.S. Senate,” because El-Sayed would “call out the kind of politics where we take money from corporations and AIPAC to run milquetoast campaigns and don't say anything about the problems that everyday people are facing.” El-Sayed has announced that he will campaign with AOC and Senator Bernie Sanders in Detroit, Lansing and Grand Rapids on July 18th and 19th, per MLive.* Another earthquake occurred in the Michigan Senate race on July 5th, when State Senator Mallory McMorrow announced that she would be withdrawing from the race – turning what was a competitive three-way race into a head-to-head between El-Sayed and the Democratic establishment pick, Congresswoman Haley Stevens. The Detroit Free Press notes that this announcement “comes after absentee ballots have already been mailed out to some voters and too late to remove her name from the primary ballot,” though voters are able to rescind their absentee votes and submit new ones up through Friday, July 24th. In a video statement, McMorrow maintained that “People are crying out for change and we need to listen.” McMorrow once led her opponents in this race but saw her support collapse and was trailing in a distant third place in recent polls. Rumor also had it that outgoing Senator Gary Peters was privately calling for her to exit the race so centrists could consolidate around Stevens. While many of her supporters are expected to go to Stevens, El-Sayed is energetically courting McMorrow's voters as well. The Detroit News reports McMorrow herself has announced that she will remain neutral in the remaining days of the primary, leaving her voters to vote their own consciences.* In more Michigan news, DSA-backed congressional candidate Donavan McKinney is running strong in his primary campaign against incumbent Congressman Shri Thanedar, whom McKinney has labeled “​​Detroit's own Elon Musk,” according to the New York Post. If McKinney pulls it off, he will join the growing group of DSA members in the House, along with Claire Valdez, Darializa Avila Chevalier and AOC from New York, Chris Rabb and Melat Kiros from Pennsylvania and Colorado respectively, and Rashida Tlaib from Michigan. Another candidate endorsed by his local DSA chapter, Kyle Blomquist, is running for Congress in Michigan but even if he wins his primary he is not expected to flip the deep red 1st congressional district.* In Missouri, Cori Bush has also won the support of DSA for her comeback congressional run against Wesley Bell, who defeated her in the 2024 primary, Andrew Solender reports. Bush had already won the support of her local DSA chapter, along with many other progressive organizations, and has been endorsed by Senator Bernie Sanders, Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib, and former Congressman Jamaal Bowman. This week though, she won the support of the national DSA. In a statement, Bush wrote “I am honored to be once again endorsed by the Democratic [Socialists] of America as I campaign to return to Congress and keep building our movement to fight for economic justice, Medicare for All, abolishing ICE, and a world where everyday people have a real voice in our workplace's neighborhoods and society.” Bush also praised DSA for its “decades of organizing…[mobilizing] thousands of people across the country to demand an economy that works for all of us…[and] take on war profiteers, the for-profit healthcare industry, and the billionaire funded lobbies that subvert our democracy.” There has been little polling of this race, but what there has been appears to show the race in a statistical dead heat. One sign that Bush is being taken seriously is the new $865,000 ad buy taken out by the United Democracy Project, an AIPAC cutout.* Ironically, it would seem that American Jews have a more favorable view of the progressive left than Israel. According to the Forward, a new AP poll found that “44% of American Jews hold a favorable opinion of Zohran Mamdani, compared with 39% who view him unfavorably.” This is in contrast to the 32% of respondents who said they have a favorable opinion of Netanyahu and 59% who said they have a negative view of the Israeli PM. Perhaps more surprisingly, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, a “staunch supporter of Israel,” garnered only a 41% favorability rating, though far more respondents said they don't know enough about him to have an opinion than said they have a negative view.* Turning back to the Senate, the other major story this week of course is the fall of Graham Platner. Accusations of sexual assault, detailed in a POLITICO article, resulted in a deluge of opprobrium that cascaded upwards culminating in Platner's earliest and highest profile supporter, Senator Bernie Sanders, calling on him to drop out of the Senate race in Maine. In a video message released Wednesday, Platner stated that he would be suspending his campaign effective immediately, later telling staff that he plans to wait until Monday, the final possible day, to formally withdraw from the race, Axios reports. In the same video, Platner categorically denied the accusations calling them “all false,” and maintaining that the “things that have been claimed did not happen.” He implied that the scandal was orchestrated by “those in power“ who would “rather see Susan Collins win than have me be the next Senator from Maine.”* Platner's impending, late-stage withdrawal from the race has set off a chaotic blitz primary to replace him as the Democratic nominee. Numerous candidates have announced they are running including former Maine Senate president Troy Jackson, former Director of Maine's Center for Disease, Control and Prevention Nirav Shah, co-founder of Maine beer company Dan Kleban, Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows and state lawmaker Valli Geiger, along with Jordan Wood and Paige Loud, both of whom ran in the Maine second congressional district Democratic primary. The actual process for selecting a nominee has been the subject of debate – with many progressives arguing for caucuses – but POLITICO reports that by July 27th, “600 delegates must be selected,” including 500 from the state's 16 county parties, and these delegates will decide on a candidate to replace Platner via “an unprecedented nominating convention,” wherein all delegates come in unpledged to any candidate setting the stage for “what could be a raucous and unpredictable free-for-all.” It remains to be seen how this will all shake out, but it is notable that almost all of these candidates poll very strongly against Senator Susan Collins, with many polling higher than Platner ever did, while the Democratic Party's handpicked primary candidate, sitting Governor Janet Mills, still polls lower than Platner even since the scandal broke.* For our final Senate story, we turn to the senior Senator from Kentucky, Mitch McConnell. McConnell was recently found unconscious in his Washington, DC home and has been hospitalized since, and while Republican Senators and media figures like Scott Jennings claim to have spoken with him directly, his being sequestered away from the public has fueled rampant speculation about the severity of his condition and why it is being kept so secretive. Forbes reports that some figures on the right, including Steve Bannon, are “suggesting the Republican establishment is shielding the state of McConnell's health from the public to allow him to remain in office long enough to avoid [Kentucky Congressman Thomas] Massie running for his seat.” Former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene told TMZ, “Thomas Massie would make a great senator.” The Hill reports that Andy Beshear, the Democratic Governor of Kentucky, sent a letter to McConnell's Senate office strongly requesting an update on the Senator's health, noting that “Over the last several weeks, Kentuckians have grown increasingly concerned about the health and well-being of Sen. McConnell,” and that “Allowing speculation to continue in the media is not fair to the Senator or to Kentuckians, and my hope is that this provides him the opportunity to share the information in a transparent manner, direct from the source.”* In more positive news, AP reports former Wisconsin judge Hannah Dugan, who helped an immigrant escape ICE by ushering him through her jury room door was spared prison time in her sentencing this week. After the incident in her court room, Dugan was convicted of felony obstruction in what was widely seen as a political trial designed to exact retribution on behalf of the Trump administration. Dugan resigned her circuit judgeship under this assault; in her resignation letter, she warned that this prosecution threatened “the independence of our judiciary.” Dugan was fined $5,000.* Finally, in spiritual news, a story in the National Catholic Reporter recounts how Pope Leo XIV excommunicated thousands of clergy and followers of the far right, schismatic group, the Society of St. Pius X. While bishops and priests are judged prima facie schismatic for their consecration in the Society, lay followers of the sect will be judged schismatic if they consciously choose “adherence to the society over obedience to the pope,” and “exclusive participation in Lefebvrian ‘ecclesial' acts, without taking part in the acts of the Catholic Church,” a reference to the group's founder, Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre. The proximate cause of this excommunication was the Society creating four new bishops in open defiance of Pope Leo, essentially daring the Church to act. This piece notes that the Society “has long been a thorn in the side of Rome,” and notes that the new papal decree rolls back privileges granted to the sect under Pope Francis, including administering the sacrament of penance and solemnizing marriages.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

SE Cupp — CNN contributor and host of the "Off the Cup" podcast — joins Donny for a no-holds-barred conversation on the political moment we're in. They dig into a stunning new AP poll showing American Jews rate Zohran Mamdani far more favorably than Benjamin Netanyahu, and unpack whether that reflects anti-Zionism, progressive politics, or something closer to antisemitism in disguise. SE Cupp draws on her years covering the Syrian war to explain the double standard in who the world chooses to care about. From there, the conversation moves through the Democratic Party's growing rift with DSA-aligned candidates, the hypocrisy on both sides of the aisle (Ken Paxton, Graham Platner, Mitch McConnell), what a winning 2026 Democratic message actually looks like, and why "affordability" — not ideology — may decide the next election. They close with a wide-ranging look at 2028: Marco Rubio, Josh Shapiro, Mark Kelly, Rahm Emanuel's feistiness problem, whether Trump could anoint a successor, and SE Cupp's theory that Tucker Carlson is quietly building a third-party run.

In 2016, U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., was an insurgent candidate taking on Hillary Clinton, the heavily favored pick of the Democratic establishment for the presidential primary. As Sanders barnstormed the country and brought out millions of people to hear his message, the Clinton machine's operatives and super-PACs swung into action to stop him by any means necessary.Tad Devine was deep in the trenches of this fight. He is a veteran Democratic political consultant and was chief strategist for Sanders' 2016 presidential campaign. Prior to that he had been a senior adviser in the presidential campaigns of Al Gore in 2000 and John Kerry in 2004.Devine has written an explosive new book about the 2016 Democratic primary campaign, “How the Democrats Screwed Bernie.” His inside account comes as a new generation of populist Democrats, including New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner, is once again challenging the Democratic establishment and receiving fierce pushback from the old guard.Devine writes that “the entrenched leadership of the Democratic Party seems determined to forget the mistakes it made during the primary season of 2016.” He blames the Democratic elite for “two catastrophic defeats in the recent past and who knows how many more to come in the future.”Devine insists, “The Democratic Party must stop impeding voters from determining the outcome of primaries.”Could Bernie have beaten Donald Trump in 2016?“Donald Trump's own pollster showed up at Harvard for the post-election review, and when asked what would have happened if Sanders was the nominee, he said he would have won,” Devine told me. “He understood that those white working-class voters who fled Hillary Clinton would have gone back to Bernie Sanders.”Devine said the reason the Democratic Party is “completely out of touch with the American people” is because it participates in “a rigged system” in which the richest donors can buy elections. He said that in other countries, “if they threw money into campaigns anonymously, they would go to jail.”“We have to break from that stranglehold of money in politics and establish ourselves as a party that is willing to seek funding through people at the grassroots level.”There are two ways to fix the corrupt campaign financing system, Devine said. “One is elections, and the second is the Constitution and overriding the Supreme Court. That is the only way home right now for America.”Devine said that “overwhelming majorities of Democrats, Republicans, independents support changing the system of campaign finance.” What they need is “a visionary leader or leaders to come out and to move the nation in that direction.” Is there any particular leader who he thinks has promise? Devine suggested Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro or California Gov. Gavin Newsom might emerge. But he noted that Barack Obama was an Illinois state senator until 2004 when he was elected a U.S. senator, and then won the presidency four years later. “People can come up very quickly in this day of instant communication.”When that leader emerges, he predicted, “I think politics will change in America and will give it back its soul.”

To mark 250 years of American independence, we're revisiting one of our favorite conversations: our sit-down with Josh Shapiro, the American independent watchmaker behind the Resurgence — the only watch that currently meets the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's standard for "Made in America." It's a fitting week to ask a question that feels newly urgent in an era of tariffs and reshoring: what would it actually take to bring watchmaking back to the United States at scale? Josh takes us from the industry's staggering height — when American factories employed over 100,000 people and produced millions of chronometer-grade watches a year, so far ahead that the Swiss crossed the Atlantic in 1876 to study our methods and race to catch up — through the forces that dismantled it: the pivot from pocket watches to wristwatches, an aggressive Swiss cartel, Depression-era trade deals, and a postwar collapse that was already terminal long before the quartz crisis delivered the final blow. Along the way he explains why the single hardest thing to rebuild isn't machinery or capital, but people, and why "Swiss Made" and "Made in America" are two very different promises. Told through the lens of building the Resurgence in his Los Angeles workshop — the CNC machines, the $150,000 balance-staff breakthrough, the North Dakota jeweler he coaxed out of retirement — this is a clear-eyed look at the slow, deliberate work of rebuilding an industry from the roots up, and what any of us can do to support it. Openwork is a weekly podcast about how the watch industry actually works. An unfiltered look behind the scenes — no press releases, no hype, and no sponsored takes.

Long before he became the governor of Pennsylvania, Josh Shapiro was just a kid calling into radio stations to talk through the highs and lows of being a sports fan. In this special episode, recorded live at the World Cup, we spoke with Governor Shapiro to talk about what it means for the city of Philadelphia to host a global event. We'll dive into his earliest sports memories, hear about the rise in sports gambling on kids' phones, and learn if sports really bring us together in the way we think they do.Then, we sit down with journalist Colby Itkowitz, who has covered Governor Shapiro for years. We'll talk about what to look out for in 2028 and the authenticity of sports fandom in politics.Show Notes Gov.

Hour one of the Marc Cox Morning Show comes out swinging, with Ryan Wrecker filling in for Marc Cox alongside Kim St. Onge. It opens with Team USA gutting out a World Cup win over Bosnia and Herzegovina down a man after a brutal red card, then pivots to the Marc Cox Shortlist, where Governor Pritzker dodges the trans-kids-in-sports question, a socialist candidate throws horns at a rally, and Josh Shapiro admits Democrats want to radically reform the Supreme Court — all while Trump touts progress on denuclearizing Iran through strength. From there it's Sony stripping away video game ownership and Mayor Mamdani ordering New Yorkers to set their thermostats at 78, before Kim on a Whim tackles the real story behind St. Louis crime statistics and whether the city's rosy numbers can be trusted. The hour closes with a bombshell: Jill Biden's bestseller status exposed as a bulk-buy mirage. Common sense, honest numbers, and real accountability — that's the thread running through Hour 1 of the Marc Cox Morning Show.

Hour three of the Marc Cox Morning Show tackles accountability at every level, from Washington to the Vatican to the Supreme Court. It opens with TMZ's report that Mitch McConnell was unconscious during a recent hospital emergency, reigniting the debate over aging leaders overstaying their welcome, before the Marc Cox Shortlist covers the trans-kids-in-sports fight and Josh Shapiro's push to radically reform the Supreme Court. Former U.S. Senator Jim Talent joins to explain how American strength has crippled Iran's regional power and to back Justice Thomas's read on birthright citizenship. The conversation turns to faith with JD Vance's public clash with Pope Leo over immigration and the Archdiocese of San Francisco's bankruptcy filing tied to decades of abuse claims.

What can Democrats learn from winning in America's ultimate swing state? On the latest episode of the GZERO World podcast, Ian Bremmer sits down with Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro to discuss the future of the Democratic Party, the growing crisis of trust in American institutions, and the biggest challenges facing the country at home and abroad. The conversation spans a wide range of issues: the future of North American trade and USMCA, the economic impact of tariffs, the war in Iran, changing US policy toward Israel, and the challenge of regulating artificial intelligence without stifling innovation. Shapiro also explains why he believes government must play a more active role in overseeing emerging technologies and protecting the public from the risks posed by AI. Throughout the discussion, Shapiro returns to a theme that has defined his time as governor: trust is earned through results. Whether the issue is economic opportunity, public safety, education, healthcare, or foreign policy, he argues that voters want leaders who can solve problems and improve people's lives. As speculation continues about the next generation of Democratic leadership, Shapiro offers a window into how one of the party's most closely watched figures thinks Democrats can win again, and what government must do to earn back the public's trust.
