What's worse than a conspiracy theory? When the actual conspiracy is even worse than the theory. Jeffrey Epstein carried out a kompromat operation for years, capturing American elite, unleashing a national security nightmare, and destroying the lives of children. In this special episode with Russian mafia expert Olga Lautman, we examine Epstein, Trump, and Russia–and the threats that still remain from the real life QAnon.  Epstein was the closest thing Trump had to a friend, going back to the 1980s. The rise of these criminal networks intertwined: Epstein, Trump, and Rudy Giuliani pushing out the Italian mafia as mayor of New York to make room for the Russian mafia–a takeover that accelerated after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Epstein's wife-in-crime Ghislaine Maxwell's father, Robert Maxwell, was a documented KGB asset with a sideline in laundering Soviet billions, and reportedly also worked with Israeli intelligence, the Mossad, at a time when the Kremlin used the Jackson-Vanik amendment passed by Congress to release spies and criminal assets among the Jewish Soviet citizens, like Lautman's family, seeking refuge in the U.S. While Epstein's survivors beg for justice and promise to release their own list of elite pedophiles, the GOP continue the Epstein cover-up to protect convicted felon Trump, their battering ram against democracy. QAnon was deflection, fueled by Russian disinformation to protect their wrecking ball in the White House. Expect more Russian psyops as the far-right Epstein cover-up continues. Call your reps and demand: release the Epstein files.  Hear the full episode by supporting our independent journalism–your early warning system–at Patreon.com/Gaslit at the Truth-teller $5/month or higher.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 2: 4:05pm- While speaking with the press alongside Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, President Trump suggested he would be open to the idea of NATO allies shooting down Russian aircrafts. And during his address to the United Nations, Trump implored European nations to stop buying oil from Russia—noting that “they're funding the war against themselves.” 4:30pm- Bill D'Agostino—Senior Research Analyst at Media Research Center— joins The Rich Zeoli Show to break down some of the best (and worst) moments from corporate media and Democrats.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Full Show (09/23/2025): 3:05pm- A jury has found Ryan Routh guilty of attempting to assassinate Donald Trump at his golf course in Palm Springs, Florida in 2024. Routh was also found guilty of several firearm violations and of assaulting a federal law enforcement officer. Routh, who made the unusual decision of representing himself in court, attempted to stab himself after hearing the jury's verdict. 3:30pm- While appearing on MSNBC with Rachel Maddow, former Vice President Kamala Harris was asked to clarify an excerpt from her new book, “107 Days,” in which claims she chose not to select Pete Buttigieg as her 2024 running mate because he is gay. Harris denied the allegation—but then backtracked and bizarrely added that she couldn't pick Buttigieg since his sexual orientation posed a campaign “risk.” 3:35pm- While promoting her book on The View, Harris said of her 2024 presidential campaign: “I didn't fully appreciate how much people wanted to know there was a difference between me and President Biden. I thought it was obvious.” However, in October 2024, Harris told The View, “there is not a thing that comes to mind” when asked what she would do differently than Joe Biden. 3:40pm- Kimmel is Back: Last week, ABC/Disney indefinitely suspended “Jimmy Kimmel Live”—following Kimmel's comments on the killing of Charlie Kirk. The late-night host shamefully accused Republicans of using the death to “score political points.” While the network's move appeared to be a result of Kimmel's comments coupled with poor ratings, FCC Chairman Brendan Carr suggested his department could potentially investigate ABC/Disney over Kimmel's vitriolic remarks—muddying the waters. Many expressed concern that Carr's warning amounted to a First Amendment violation. On Monday, ABC/Disney announced that the suspension had concluded, and Kimmel will be back on-air Tuesday night. However, Nexstar and Sinclair—which operate a combined 60 ABC affiliates—announced they will not air “Jimmy Kimmel Live” despite the suspension's cessation. 4:05pm- While speaking with the press alongside Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, President Trump suggested he would be open to the idea of NATO allies shooting down Russian aircrafts.

Dr. Coates is the author of the book: “The Battle for the Jewish State: How Israel—and America—Can Win.” 5:30pm- Jack Carr—#1 New York Times Best Selling Author of “The Terminal List” & U.S. Navy Seal—joins The Rich Zeoli Show to discuss his new book, “Cry Havoc,” which is available for pre-order now! 5:35pm- On Monday, October 13th at 7:30pm—Rich will host New York Times best-selling author Jack Carr at the Zlock Performing Arts Center (at Bucks County Community College) in Newtown, PA. They'll sit down for an engaging discussion about Jack's latest thriller, Cry Havoc—the newest installment in his acclaimed James Reece series.

The man accused of attempting to assassinate President Donald Trump while he was golfing in West Palm Beach last year has been found guilty. A jury on Tuesday convicted Ryan Routh on all five charges, including attempted assassination of a presidential candidate, assaulting a federal officer, and possession of a firearm with a tampered serial number. After the verdict, Routh tried to stab himself with a pen in the Florida courtroom but was quickly restrained by officers.Trump has shifted his stance on Ukraine, now suggesting the country should fight to retake all land seized by Russia. The reversal comes after his meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy on the sidelines of the 80th U.N. General Assembly. Trump also criticized the U.N.'s funding of “uncontrolled migration,” calling it “the number one political issue of our time.”Not all stations are on board as ABC brings back "Jimmy Kimmel Live."

Sous le coup d'un mandat d'arrêt de la Cour pénale internationale, Vladimir Poutine a enchainé les tapis rouges au mois d'août 2025 : il y a d'abord eu cette rencontre en Alaska avec Donald Trump, rencontre très attendue qui finalement n'a débouché sur rien. Aucune avancée vers un cessez-le-feu en Ukraine et d'éventuelles négociations…D'autant qu'en proposant à Volodymyr Zelensky de venir le rencontrer à Moscou, Vladimir Poutine connaissait à l'avance la réponse de son homologue ukrainien Le  31 août 2025, le sommet de l'organisation de la coopération de Shangaï s'est ouvert à Tianjin, dans le nord de la Chine, avec une photo qui a fait le tour du monde : le Russe Poutine, le Chinois Xi et l'Indien Modi. 3 hommes visiblement ravis de ce pied de nez fait aux Occidentaux, États-Unis en tête. Et c'est depuis une place d'honneur en tribune que le président russe a assisté le 3 septembre au défilé militaire organisé par Xi Jinping.  Pendant ce temps, l'armée russe n'a cessé de progresser sur le front et elle intensifie ses attaques sur les villes. Dimanche dernier (8 septembre 2025), Moscou a même bombardé le siège du gouvernement à Kiev et lancé quelque 800 drones sur l'Ukraine. Dans la nuit de mardi 9 au mercredi 10 septembre 2025, nouvelle escalade avec une salve de 450 drones et missiles contre l'Ukraine mais surtout l'intrusion de 19 drones présumés russes dans l'espace aérien de la Pologne, pays membre de l'alliance atlantique. Colère de Varsovie et de ses alliés européens qui dénoncent une provocation du Kremlin. Varsovie a mobilisé ses avions et ceux de plusieurs pays de l'OTAN pour faire face à la menace. Au moins 3 des 19 drones sont abattus. Vladimir Poutine a-t-il voulu tester les capacités de réaction de l'OTAN ? Les Européens doivent-ils se préparer à d'autres provocations de Moscou ? Ont-ils les moyens d'aider l'Ukraine à se défendre contre les drones meurtriers ? L'hiver qui approche sera-t-il l'hiver de tous les dangers pour Kiev ? Vladimir Poutine, fort de son impunité, se sent-il intouchable ? 3 invités : - Alexandra Gougeon, maître de conférences à l'Université de Bourgogne , autrice  de « Ukraine : de l'indépendance à la guerre », aux éditions Le Cavalier bleu - Cyrille Bret, géopoliticien, expert à l'Institut Montaigne, spécialiste de la Russie et de l'Europe orientale - Guillaume Lasconjarias, historien militaire, professeur associé à Sorbonne Université.

In this episode, Alexandra and Adam start off with some discussion on the news, including concerns over the upcoming Russia/Belarus Zapad 2025 military exercises, Slovakia's Robert Fico and his meeting with Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Ukraine, and upcoming elections in Moldova.Later, Adam and Nina are joined by Thomas de Waal, a senior fellow with Carnegie Europe and expert on the South Caucasus. They discuss the peace deal which was initialed at the White House between Armenia and Azerbaijan and dig deeper as to what it means, who wins, who loses, and what might come next.

Hoje é dia de RADAR DW. Na edição desta sexta-feira, três anos passaram desde o início do segundo mandato de João Lourenço, que tomou posse a 15 de setembro de 2022. Entre promessas e desafios, o Presidente angolano comprometeu-se a combater vícios nas instituições do Estado, mas evitou assumir posições claras sobre as eleições autárquicas e o combate à corrupção.

C dans l'air du 11 septembre 2025 - Drones russes en Pologne : l'OTAN fait feuDans la nuit du 9 au 10 septembre, dix-neuf drones ont pénétré l'espace aérien polonais, un fait inédit pour un pays membre de l'Alliance atlantique. Des avions de chasse polonais et néerlandais ont été mobilisés et ont traqué les engins jusqu'au petit matin. Un avion-ravitailleur de l'OTAN, un avion-radar italien, ainsi qu'une batterie antiaérienne Patriot allemande ont également été déployés.Au moins trois de ces drones — des Shahed de conception iranienne, désormais produits en Russie — ont été abattus. Cette nuit a pris les allures d'un exercice grandeur nature de défense aérienne de l'OTAN… sauf que ce n'en était pas un. L'un des drones a été retrouvé à seulement 35 kilomètres de la frontière ukrainienne, un autre s'est écrasé à 130 kilomètres de Varsovie, et plusieurs ont percuté des habitations civiles.En Pologne, la population est sous le choc. Le Premier ministre, Donald Tusk, a dénoncé une « provocation » et mis en garde contre le risque d'un « conflit ouvert » avec la Russie. Il a aussitôt appelé à l'activation de l'article 4 du traité de l'Atlantique Nord, qui prévoit des consultations entre alliés en cas de menace pour l'un d'entre eux. Il a également demandé la convocation du Conseil de sécurité des Nations unies ce jeudi, afin de « porter l'attention du monde entier sur cette attaque sans précédent de drones russes ».De son côté, Moscou a nié toute intention hostile, affirmant ne pas avoir visé la Pologne. Le ministère russe de la Défense a dénoncé des « mythes » propagés par Varsovie pour justifier une escalade du conflit en Ukraine. Pourtant, 19 drones, ce n'est pas une erreur isolée. D'où l'hypothèse d'un test délibéré, destiné à jauger les capacités de réaction de l'Otan, des pays européens et des États-Unis.La réponse européenne a été immédiate. Outre la mobilisation de moyens aériens par plusieurs États membres, les représentants des cinq principales puissances européennes — Allemagne, France, Italie, Pologne et Royaume-Uni — se sont réunis mercredi à Londres pour condamner un acte « sans précédent ».Le Conseil de l'Atlantique Nord a modifié, jeudi, le format de sa réunion hebdomadaire, la tenant dans le cadre de l'article 4, comme le réclamait la Pologne. Le secrétaire général de l'OTAN, Mark Rutte, s'est félicité de la rapidité de la réponse alliée face à cette « intrusion dangereuse, intentionnelle ou non », et a adressé un avertissement clair à Moscou : « Nous défendrons chaque centimètre du territoire de l'Otan. »Mais à Kiev, le président Volodymyr Zelensky a regretté le « manque d'action » des dirigeants occidentaux. Il a estimé que la Russie n'avait pas reçu de réponse ferme, qui aurait dû, selon lui, se traduire par des mesures concrètes.Quant à Donald Trump, il a réagi via son réseau Truth Social, dans un message énigmatique, au ton presque désinvolte : « Qu'est-ce qui se passe avec la Russie qui viole l'espace aérien polonais avec des drones ? C'est parti ! », a écrit le président américain.Alors, que s'est-il passé dans le ciel polonais ? Que révèle cette incursion de drones en Pologne ? Vladimir Poutine est-il en train de tester les limites de l'Otan ? Et quelle est la situation en Ukraine ?LES EXPERTS :- Marion Van Renterghem - Grand reporter, chroniqueuse à L'Express, et spécialiste des questions européennes- Gallagher Fenwick - Journaliste, spécialiste des Etats-Unis et des relations internationales- Alain Pirot - Journaliste, documentariste, spécialiste des questions de défense- Isabelle Lasserre - Correspondante diplomatique au Figaro

Volodymyr Zelenskyy says Russia is testing the limits of what is possible. NATO jets shot down many of the drones in what was the first defensive action of its kind since Moscow's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Poland's prime minister Donald Tusk says those that 'posed a direct threat' were downed and confirmed there were no casualties. He says it was 'likely' a 'large scale provocation'. Tánaiste Simon Harris says America must now step up.

They have that on their side, where the Russian military is struggling.” - Liev Schreiber“This was never about Ukraine for me. This was always about American values and democracy and what it is, where it comes from and what it means.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, WMAL's Larry O'Connor fills in for Mark. Marco Rubio's State Department has reduced the number of student visas by over 6,000 following an executive order issued in January that mandated a review for potential security risks. This visa enforcement is among the most prominent immigration measures keeping education safe from foreign threats and influences. Also, President Trump declared that he will lead a movement aimed at abolishing mail-in voting and electronic voting machines ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, which was very overdue. He announced plans to sign an executive order, and he will succeed in ending the ballot corruption, once and for all. In addition, NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte said that Russian President Vladimir Putin has agreed to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky. This occurred during a phone call between Putin and President Trump right in the middle of a big meeting at the White House with Trump, Zelensky, and top European leaders.
