The Washington Roundtable is joined by Jeff Stein, the veteran political reporter and founding editor of the newsletter “Spytalk,” to examine Donald Trump's appointment of Bill Pulte as the new acting Director of National Intelligence, a position that, in theory, oversees the C.I.A., N.S.A., F.B.I., and fifteen other agencies. Pulte has no intelligence background and no national-security experience, but does have a track record of going after the President's perceived enemies. Plus, the panel discusses a recent Washington Post investigation that raised new questions about the outgoing director, Tulsi Gabbard, and her alleged ties to a religious cult.

Americans are grappling with a rising cost in healthcare. For the first time in five years, fewer than half of Americans can consistently afford healthcare. That's according to the latest data from Gallup. The cost of healthcare in the US remains higher than any other large, wealthy country. According to a report from the Department of Health and Human Services, five million fewer people are enrolled in marketplace plans for 2026, compared to last year. That's as average premium costs rose about 58%.With health care costs increasingly becoming a stress for Americans, voters are now making the issue a top priority at the ballot box. And it's an issue that crosses party and geographic lines. According to new polling from The Century Foundation, 71% of Democrats, 66% of Republicans and 75% of rural voters agree that reigning in hospital costs should be a top priority for lawmakers. While new polling from Ipsos and Axios suggests that a majority of Americans say they're more likely to vote for candidates in November who will lower their health costs.How will the issue of healthcare shape the midterms? And how are Americans grappling with the cost of their health?Find more of our programs online.

The Rise of a New Man and the Trial of Roscius. Guest Author: Josiah Osgood. Marcus Tullius Cicero was born into a non-elite family in 106 BCE, making him a "new man" in the Roman Republic. Rising through the political ranks required winning elections that were typically controlled by a small group of powerful families. Cicero gained fame as a masterful orator and defense attorney by navigating the Roman criminal courts, which were often used to target corrupt politicians. These trials were held in the public forum to allow citizens to see justice being served. In his debut criminal case, a thirty-year-old Cicero defended a man named Roscius against a charge of parricide. Parricide was considered a uniquely dreadful crime by the Romans, punishable by being sewn into a sack with animals and cast into the sea. Cicero functioned as his own private detective, investigating the facts behind the prosecution's claims. He discovered that a group had taken advantage of the elder Roscius's death to seize his property for a low sum. By telling a compelling story and asking "cui bono"—who stands to gain—Cicero successfully argued that his client had been framed. This high-stakes victory established his reputation and demonstrated his ability to use the courtroom as a stage for political advancement. 1CARTHAGE

The federal Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has proposed rule changes that would bring a major shift in how scientific grants are awarded by U.S. government agencies. Under the current process, researchers submit grant proposals that are then vetted and scored by a committee of experts in that scientific field, with top-scoring proposals recommended for funding. If its proposed changes are enacted, the OMB would insert a political review into the process, allowing administration officials to determine whether grant proposals are aligned with administration priorities, regardless of their scientific merit. Those proposed rules are now in a public comment period. Holden Thorp, editor in chief of the Science family of journals, joins Ira to explain why he called the change “another red alert for American science” in a recent editorial. Guest: Dr. Holden Thorp is editor in chief of the Science family of journals, at the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

Welcome back to The Majority Report On today's program: The DSA slate wins the New York Democratic primaries in a sweep. Zohran Mamdani delivers a powerful speech at Claire Valdez's election party. A DSA chair tells Hasan Piker on his stream that his phone banking drive on behalf of Darializa Avila Chevalier yesterday identified 2,000 voters which is essentially the margin of victory. Centrist Dem consultant Neera Tanden tries to pump the brakes on the DSA's victory by saying it won't work in rural states. I guess she hasn't heard of Graham Platner.

Donald Trump is now proposing ending the unconstitutional war he started in the Middle East. Setting aside whether that means he lost the war or he's just giving up, the deal he's offering Iran to end the war he started represents complete and utter capitulation. Iran is openly declaring victory, and they have Trump to thank for it.Glenn discusses why Trump's capitulation represents a horrific and embarrassing defeat for Trump and his administration, and exposes him as the single worst "deal maker" in American history.

Every once in a while the Wednesday podcasts lead me in a completely different direction than I had originally planned. It happened again today during my talk with the great Nicole Sandler, a liberal broadcaster who's been in the trenches longer than I have. We ended up in an utterly fascinating talk about AI and how it's infiltrating our first love – broadcast radio. We also talked about Nicole's personal struggle with anxiety after the 2024 election, and so much more. Stick around for this very personal conversation.

The construction of data centers around the country is shaping up to be a contentious topic as the midterm elections grow closer. Pressure is mounting on government officials to balance the economic growth these facilities could bring with the needs of the communities hosting them. Florida Lieutenant Governor and Republican candidate for Governor of Florida, Jay Collins, joins FOX News' Bill Melugin to discuss his proposed guardrails for AI development and data center expansion. He also weighs in on Florida's competitive Republican primary, responds to criticism from gubernatorial opponent, Congressman Byron Donalds, and explains how he would build on the legacy of Governor Ron DeSantis. As the nation gears up to celebrate America 250, a new FOX Nation special, titled “The Patriot War,” dives into the stories of Revolutionary figures like Martha Washington, Alexander Hamilton and more. Emmy-winning actor, producer and director Kelsey Grammer joins Dave Anthony to share insight into the special, as well as political division today versus 250 years ago. He also previews his upcoming film Young Washington and reflects on why the political divisions of today aren't as unprecedented as we think. PLUS, commentary by Jason Chaffetz, FOX News contributor and the host of the Jason In The House podcast on FOX News Radio.  PHOTO CREDIT: GETTY IMAGES Learn more about your ad choices.

The situation in the United Kingdom continues to degrade as mass immigration takes its toll on the country.  The ruling class can only become more tyrannical in the hopes of quelling the tensions that its immigration policy has caused. Even this effort has been of little help as Prime Minister Keir Starmer has announced his resignation to the unpopular nature of his leadership. U.K. commentor News Fist joins me to discuss whether a political solution remains for the British.  Check out News Fist: https://www.youtube.com/@news_fist Follow on: Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-auron-macintyre-show/id1657770114 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3S6z4LBs8Fi7COupy7YYuM?si=4d9662cb34d148af Substack: https://auronmacintyre.substack.com/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/AuronMacintyre Gab: https://gab.com/AuronMacIntyre YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/c/AuronMacIntyre Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/c-390155 Odysee: https://odysee.com/@AuronMacIntyre:f Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/auronmacintyre/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Last month, a prosecution of six protesters in Chicago, known as the Broadview six, fell apart due to some horrific misconduct by Trump's Department of Justice. Indeed, the DOJ was forced to dismiss the cases when their misconduct was revealed to the judge.Now, those six defendants have filed a motion with the court, asking the judge to appoint a special prosecutor to investigate and - if the evidence is there - to prosecute Donald Trump's dirty DOJ officials and lawyers who engaged in the misconduct. Glenn breaks down and explains this important new legal development.
