In this episode, Jeff returns after a few weeks off — and explains how one press conference in Chicago spiraled into a fabricated international incident with the Mexican government. Representing Ovidio Guzmán (El Chapo's son) became less about legal defense and more about being scapegoated by terrified politicians. In the end, free speech and the truth will always shine through. And the Mexican people? Jeff notes that his respect for them has grown exponentially.Also covered: Hamas' newest PR strategy — letting Gaza starve while hoarding food in tunnels and filming propaganda videos of emaciated kids (whose fat parents are somehow not starving). The lies grow louder, the propaganda slicker, and yet Western liberal and far-right Jew haters just can't stop blaming Israel and taking it out on Jews. All while the next mayor of NYC will be a Hamas cheerleader who wants government-owned supermarkets and to arrest the Prime Minster of Israel. The downward spiral that began in 2008 nears completion.And finally, Jeff goes full collector mode: a breakdown of the baseball card National Show in Chicago. Too many rooms, too many scammers, but one glorious vintage Orioles cabinet card makes the entire hellscape worth it.

Donald Trump can't escape the shadow of Jeffrey Epstein, and he seems to have fallen out with many of his closest supporters over the failure to disclose the Epstein files. So, after 6 months of whirlwind policy making and broad success, are cracks beginning to appear in MAGA? Is he rather too involved in the foreign wars his base wanted to get shot of? Are the tariff policies going to mean fewer and more expensive items on supermarket shelves? Dr James D Boys is a senior research fellow at University College London Centre on US Politics and he tells Phil and Roger why he thinks MAGA will still stick with Trump. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

"They're there to protect him. Not the nation, not the truth, not what's good, not what's sacred, but just him."

It's been a banner stretch for President Trump: a major strike on Iran's nuclear sites, a sprawling tax-and-spending bill pushed through Congress, and a growing foreign policy resume. But beneath the surface of all the flag-waving and victory laps, Democrats like Senator Mark Warner are warning that the real story is unfolding in the shadows—inside an increasingly politicized US intelligence community.In this episode of the GZERO World podcast, Ian sits down with the senior Senator from Virginia at his Capitol Hill office for a wide-ranging conversation about what's breaking inside America's national security institutions—and what that means for foreign policy decisions from Tehran to Gaza.

[Intelligence] Analysts are being told to change their conclusions—or lose their jobs.”The two also dive into the fallout from the US-Israeli strikes on Iran, the fragile push for a Gaza ceasefire, and why Warner sees a largely ignored civil war in Sudan as one of the world's worst ongoing humanitarian crises—and a rare opportunity for the US to lead.Host: Ian BremmerGuest: Senator Mark Warner (D-VA) Subscribe to the GZERO World with Ian Bremmer Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform, to receive new episodes as soon as they're published.

Just two days after we sat down with Francesca Albanese, the Trump Administration placed her under sanctions.They accuse the UN Special Rapporteur of waging “economic warfare” on the United States. She says the sanctions are “mafia style intimidation techniques” and vows to continue her work to remind states of their obligations to “stop and punish genocide. And those who profit from it.”So why has the US taken such a drastic move? That has a lot to do with a scathing report Albanese just published, titled the “economy of genocide”.In it, she accuses more than 60 corporations of “sustaining and profiting off of Israeli occupation, apartheid and genocide.”Some of these companies include Google, Amazon, Hyundai Booking.com and the bank Barclays.This week on the Big Picture Podcast, we sit down with Francesca Albanese to talk about what her explosive report exposes about the world's richest companies, and how the rest of us are implicated in a system that exploits the pain of Palestinians for the sake of profit.We'd love to hear your thoughts on this episode, and any guests you'd like us to have on our show.

On the “DMZ America Podcast, Ted Rall (Left) and Scott Stantis (Right) consider the prospects for Elon Musk's “America Party” and the wild ride of third parties in U.S. politics! On Saturday, Musk, the billionaire disruptor, announced the launch of his “America Party” after blasting Trump's $3.3 trillion spending bill as “criminal.” Promising fiscal restraint and liberty, his party has MAGA World furious, with critics like Steve Bannon seriously annoyed. Third parties, like Perot's Reform Party, Greens, Prohibition Party and Eugene Debs' Socialist Party often shake things up but tend to crash against America's winner-takes-all electoral college system. Can Musk's cash and clout change the game, or will it fracture the Right? Does this flaky dude have the followthrough necessary to see this project through?

Welcome and happy Independence Day weekend! We hope you have enjoyed the holiday weekend. As we give thanks for our country, we have an interesting question today from our Top 10 Series: How should we approach US politics and the role of Evangelical Christians? There are two things we shouldn’t discuss in polite society, religion and politics, and this morning we are going to discuss both. Our goal, however, is not to tell you how to think about issues or vote. Rather, what we will share is the central truth found in Scripture for our political engagement, which is this: A follower of Jesus, and therefore an Evangelical Christian, is first and foremost, a person who has trusted in Christ as King and, therefore, whose primary allegiance is to His Kingdom. Peter reminds us that Jesus’ followers are sojourners and exiles in the kingdoms of men; remembering this puts us in the best position to be the best citizens in any nation, rightly relating to the rulers and government as well as our neighbors. In the US, while we are thankful for our freedom, we need to heed Peter’s challenge to “Live as people who are free, not using your freedom as a cover-up for evil, but living as servants of God.” May this be our posture this weekend and throughout our lives.

In the middle of the night, the House narrowly passes Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill," a witch's brew of tax cuts for the wealthiest and benefit cuts for the neediest, sending it on to the Senate. Jon and Dan talk about what Democrats can do to stop the bill—and the upside of Republicans passing something so massively unpopular, Trump's "white genocide" show-and-tell for South African President Cyril Ramaphosa, and the damning new data showing why Kamala Harris lost the 2024 presidential election. Then, Dan talks with Rep. LaMonica McIver about getting slapped with criminal charges by Trump's Justice Department, and what it means for the executive branch to be targeting legislators for doing their job.
