Trump wants his face on the money. Not on a coin after he's gone. Not on a statue some future generation can decide to keep or tear down. On a live, circulating $250 bill — while he's still in office and while it's still illegal under federal law to put a living person on US currency. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent went on television and called it nothing untoward. The Angry Middle is calling it what it actually is: a strongman vanity project at a moment when most Americans can't scrape $250 together for groceries, gas, and rent. In this conversation, Paul and the crew break down the legacy push — the commemorative coin, the Trump-branded passports out of DC, the National Park Pass swap, the Kennedy Center rebrand, the arch on the White House lawn — and why this is all gas, no brakes executive ego dressed up as patriotism. They get into the Republican holdouts (Tillis, Cassidy, Cornyn) who Trump has already purged and who are about to hand him an embarrassing no vote, the ten-year design timeline that makes the whole thing a fantasy anyway, and the cabinet-meeting sycophancy culture that produces ideas this absurd. Then a hard left turn to the Knicks Finals — and a non-partisan plea to keep both Trump and Mamdani out of Madison Square Garden before they jinx the whole run. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Join IVA and stand up to Trump's Forever Wars. -Learn more about Paul's work to elect a new generation of independent leaders with Independent Veterans of America. -Learn more about American Veterans for Ukraine here. -Remember Independent is an Attitude. -Learn more about The Headstrong Project for Veterans, Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS), and Department of Veterans Affairs resources in your area.

Today's Headlines: Trump's Treasury appointees are pushing to put his face on a new $250 bill — the printing director who resisted was reassigned, Trump personally gave the artist edits, and the whole plan is technically illegal since living people have been banned from US currency since 1866. ProPublica revealed that the White House intervened to help Don Jr.'s venture firm secure a $620 million Pentagon loan for a rare earth startup called Vulcan Elements, pushed through by Peter Navarro with officials told to approve it at unusual speed because "the call came from the White House." The DOJ also opened an investigation into E. Jean Carroll — who won two civil cases against Trump and is owed over $80 million — over whether she committed perjury by not disclosing that a nonprofit covered some of her legal fees, because losing twice apparently wasn't enough. April's inflation came in at 3.3% — the highest since May 2023 — with personal income growth falling below the inflation rate and the savings rate dropping from 3.6% to 2.6%, meaning people are draining their savings to cover rising costs. Pam Bondi testified before the House Oversight Committee about the Epstein files coverup without being under oath, represented by a DOJ attorney from the same agency she led during the coverup, which rendered the whole exercise fairly decorative. On Iran, negotiators reportedly reached a 60-day memorandum of understanding to extend the ceasefire and open the Strait of Hormuz — though Trump hasn't approved it, Iran hasn't confirmed it, so "ceasefire" continues to be a creative use of the word. A former CIA officer was charged with stealing 300 gold bars worth $40 million, stashing them at home, and claiming work expenses — he also faked his entire résumé across three job applications over nine years and was somehow hired anyway, which raises some questions about the CIA. And Peter Thiel relocated his family to Argentina because he prefers Javier Milei's vibe and is worried about America's future — ok, Peter.

The American birthrate has cratered. And the DINKs (double income, no kids) don't seem to think that's a bad thing. The UN-backed IPCC (something something climate change) has adjusted its doomsaying model because Florida isn't underwater yet. It could also be because climate change is not a real thing and is only used to push a globalist agenda. Either way, Trump weighed in.

AP correspondent Marissa Duhaney reports President Trump wants to paint a famous Washington building, alarming those who say the plan could cause damage.
Mea Culpa welcomes back, the Brooklyn Dad Defiant, or simply BDD. BDD is a left-wing political commentator on Twitter, YouTube, and various other social media platforms. His outspoken defiance and often humorous take on the Trump administration have earned him almost a million Twitter followers. Since the riots at the Capitol on January 6, BDD has used his platform to bring attention to GOP lawmakers like MTG, Cruz, Jordan, and Biggs, asking that they face consequences for their actions in connection to the insurrection. He calls himself a proud papa who is perpetually pissed. Michael and BDD dig deep into the culture wars, the Dobbs decision, and DeSantis.
The midterms are heating up—and depending on who you ask, they're either democracy in action… or already stolen. We break down the latest election chaos, the claims, the pushback, and what it all means as both sides dig in ahead of November. Meanwhile, a nightmare scenario may be unfolding at sea, with reports of a possible hantavirus situation on a cruise ship raising serious concerns about safety, containment, and how something like this even happens in 2026. Plus, Donald Trump continues to face criticism for policies and fundraising tactics that some say are ripping off everyday Americans, all while his influence over the Republican Party remains stronger than ever. And the war in Iran isn't slowing down—its impact is being felt everywhere, from global markets to gas prices to the political temperature here at home. It's chaos on land, at sea, and at the ballot box—welcome to the afternoon Rush Hour.
Iran offered a 14-point peace deal. Donald Trump ignored it and announced he is sending the Navy into the Strait of Hormuz instead. He wants a war. In this episode:
King Charles and Queen Camilla close out a triumphant American state visit with a stroll down Main Street in small-town Virginia, buying Girl Scout cookies and winning over a nation. Trump lifts tariffs on Scottish whisky and credits the royals personally. Piers Morgan is texting the President. And in the Oval Office, Trump asks whether Harry can make a comeback — before delivering a withering verdict on the Duchess of Sussex. Meanwhile, Harry and Meghan reportedly didn't watch the King's address to Congress. Not live, not later, not at all.Get episodes of Palace Intrigue by becommming a paid subscriber on Apple Podcasts.

Trump wants to buy Spirit Airlines at bankruptcy with taxpayer money to "save jobs." That's not capitalism — that's Bernie Sanders with a red tie.- Today's podcasts is sponsored by Pebl.

Download Netsuite's free business guide, Demystifying AI, at https://netsuite.com/goldJerome Powell's final press conference as Fed Chair featured a claim that inflation was "under control" for 40 years before the pandemic — a statement Peter Schiff demolishes decade by decade, showing average CPI of 5.5% in the 1980s, 3% in the 1990s, and 2.6% in the 2000s, with only the post-crisis 2010s anywhere near the 2% target.The Fed held rates at 3.5% while oil surged past $108 WTI and $120 Brent, bond yields pushed back toward post-Liberation Day highs with the 30-year hitting 5%, and four FOMC members dissented on the dovish bias. Powell announced he'll stay on the board to protect "Fed independence," but Schiff argues he'll be irrelevant. The episode also covers Trump's plan to buy Spirit Airlines at bankruptcy — proof he doesn't understand capitalism — Michael Saylor's Bitcoin conference keynote pushing Stretch preferred stock as a thinly veiled Ponzi, and explosive IRS FOIA documents proving the agency collaborated with Puerto Rico's SIF to shut down Euro Pacific Bank as a PR stunt, with every email focused on publicity strategy rather than any actual wrongdoing.Chapters:00:00 Cold Open Montage00:58 Fed Holds Rates02:47 Powell Stays On05:07 Fed Independence Debate06:17 Inflation Mandate Critique09:38 Reporters And Data11:04 Decades Of CPI Reality15:01 Ad Break Pebble16:43 Powell On His Record20:04 Inflation Fire Economy Weak21:59 Oil Yields And Markets27:18 Gold Silver And EPAM Pitch29:15 Ad Break NetSuite31:05 Trump Spirit Bailout34:10 Bitcoin Conference Reality Check37:21 Saylor Stretch Digital Credit39:44 Ponzi Claims And Warning42:57 Yield Over Bitcoin43:26 IRS FOIA Fight45:58 Explosive Email Evidence47:02 Debanking Timeline49:55 SIF Findings Breakdown57:42 PR Motive Revealed01:06:47 Press Conference Coordination01:16:43 Why This Matters01:20:08 Puerto Rico Potential01:25:12 Final Call To ActionFollow @peterschiffX: https://twitter.com/peterschiffInstagram: https://instagram.com/peterschiffTikTok: https://tiktok.com/@peterschiffofficialFacebook: https://facebook.com/peterschiffFree Reports & Market Updates: https://www.europac.comBook Store: https://schiffradio.com/booksSign up for Peter's most valuable insights at https://schiffsovereign.comSchiff Gold News: https://www.schiffgold.com/news#PeterSchiffShow #FederalReserve #InflationPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Iran is seizing ships, Trump is shipping our Afghan allies to Congo, Hegseth is killing the flu vaccine mandate, and Virginia just turned gerrymandering into an arms race. Then Paul sits down with retired Air Force Major General Sarah Zabel — a 31-year veteran, cyber and strategy leader, and independent candidate for Congress in Idaho's 1st District — for a no-BS briefing on what strategic incompetence actually costs the country.

Sarah Zabel is a 31-year Air Force veteran and independent candidate for Congress in Idaho's 1st District. A graduate of the Air Force Academy with a computer science degree, she spent her career as a communications and cyber systems officer, deployed in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom, and served in senior roles at the Air Staff, Joint Staff, U.S. Transportation Command, and as vice director of the Defense Information Systems Agency.

Hegseth Out and Driscoll In? Trump Says U.S. Officials Will Travel to Pakistan for Talks. Kash Patel is Getting Wasted. Mass Shooting in Louisiana. NBA is Lit. It's 4/20, it's Manosphere Monday, and Independent Americans is back with a rapid-fire Monday Blitz to help you navigate another wild week in America and around the world. Host Paul Rieckhoff breaks down Trump's latest Iran deadline, the Strait of Hormuz shutdown, rising oil prices, and why ten thousand American troops are again on the front lines of a dangerous global standoff. He digs into Trump's threats toward Cuba and Venezuela, the chaos surrounding FBI Director Kash Patel, and the terrifying reality of mass shootings and domestic instability here at home. From Iran to Ukraine's killer robots, from narco-terrorist boat strikes to the growing danger of an unchecked commander-in-chief, this episode is a blunt, unflinching look at “President mayhem” and the stakes for our democracy and our troops. Rieckhoff also takes you inside the culture and sports world—from Channing Tatum's $45 million Magic Mike Live expansion and the blazing-hot NBA playoffs to Little League coach-pitch glory and why Victor Wembanyama might be the future of the game. He highlights the explosive growth of legal and medical marijuana across America, how it's saving lives (especially for veterans), and why independents—now 45% of the country—are the real majority fighting back against rigged closed primaries and toxic manfluencers dominating the manosphere. If you're politically homeless, exhausted by the extremes, or just looking for sharp, independent analysis with a side of Sade, weed politics, and Knicks fandom, this fast, no-guest episode will help you stay informed, fired up, and, as always, stay vigilant. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Join IVA and stand up to Trump's Forever Wars. -Learn more about Paul's work to elect a new generation of independent leaders with Independent Veterans of America. -Learn more about American Veterans for Ukraine here. -Remember Independent is an Attitude. -Learn more about The Headstrong Project for Veterans, Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS), and Department of Veterans Affairs resources in your area.

John Eastman was disbarred by the State of California for his role in attempting to overturn the 2020 election. Former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirchner weighs in on what that means. All six attorneys who helped Trump push his post-election legal schemes, including Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, Jenna Ellis, Jeffrey Clark, and Kenneth Chesebro, have faced disbarment or disciplinary action. Pete Hegseth delivered a press corps speech comparing the mainstream media to the Pharisees of the Bible, claiming a surge in military enlistment and defending the Yemen strikes. CNN's Jake Tapper responds. Hegseth's personal history, including allegations of alcohol abuse and a paid NDA settlement following a rape accusation, sit in sharp contrast to his stated religious values. Steve Bannon warns a Washington DC crowd about Sharia law coming to Texas and gets laughed at. California Representative Sydney Kamlager-Dove closes out the episode with a message for Donald Trump.

Trump Wants $1.5T for Defense. Is Hegseth Running for President? SERE Training 101. Pickles the Dog for President? Final Four Friday! The ultimate split-screen moment in American history. While the world watched in awe as the Artemis crew headed toward the moon—representing the pinnacle of human achievement and international cooperation—the reality of global conflict hit home. In this urgent Friday blitz, host Paul Rieckhoff breaks down the breaking news of a U.S. F-15E Strike Eagle being shot down over Iran. With one crew member rescued and another's status uncertain, we examine the tactical reality of "boots on the ground" in a conflict that continues to escalate despite a lack of public support. Joining the conversation is a true American hero, NASA Astronaut and Navy Veteran Commander Scott Kelly. Drawing on his experience as an F-14 pilot and his time commanding the International Space Station, Kelly provides an insider's perspective on the SERE (Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape) protocols our downed aviators are facing right now. We also dive deep into the Artemis mission, the firing of Army General Randy George by Pete Hegseth, and why independent leadership is the only way to navigate a world that feels closer to World War III than ever before.

This week, the Senate is debating the contentious SAVE America Act, a strict voter identification bill that could overhaul who gets to vote. President Trump has called it his “No. 1 priority,” threatening to not sign any other legislation until it is passed. Michael Gold and Nick Corasaniti, reporters for The New York Times, discuss why some Republicans are standing against the president to block it, and the administration's other plans to try to reshape the electoral process.
