The impact of the shutdown is spreading to the skies, where staffing shortages have forced some air traffic control towers to close and ground flights across the country. And former FBI Director James Comey appears in court to face felony charges, a case driven by pressure from President Trump.Want more comprehensive analysis of the most important news of the day, plus a little fun?

Blame on Democrats: The term “Schumer Shutdown” is updated to “Schumer–Hakeem Jeffries Shutdown.” Jeffries is criticized for rejecting a one-year ACA subsidy extension that could have reopened the government. The commentary accuses Democrats of “orchestrating” the shutdown for political leverage. Defense of Republicans and Trump: Quotes from Donald Trump emphasize his claim of a “landslide victory” and frame the shutdown as a “kamikaze attack” by Democrats. The narrative presents Trump as calm and proactive despite the crisis, promising “good things are going to happen.” Impact on Ordinary Americans: Focuses on economic and emotional stress caused by the shutdown — e.g., furloughed federal workers and air traffic controllers missing paychecks. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is quoted describing strain on workers and air travel disruptions (notably in Burbank, CA). Criticism of ACA Costs: The Affordable Care Act is described as “never affordable,” with claims that premiums could increase by over $10,000 a month. Democrats are accused of demanding excessive funding to maintain ACA subsidies. Political Spin and Language: The rhetoric is strongly partisan, labeling Democrats as “radical,” “orchestrating pain,” and calling some “MAGA extremists.” The tone aligns with right-leaning political media, highlighting grievances against Democratic leaders while emphasizing Republican resolve.

Tommy & Ben sound the alarm about how Trump is laying the foundation for war with Venezuela—breaking down the administration's justifications, what escalation could look like, and why attacking Venezuela won't solve America's drug problem. Then, they discuss the latest negotiations between Israel and Hamas over Trump's Gaza “peace plan,” Israel's treatment of activists arrested from the Gaza-bound Global Sumud Flotilla, an update from journalist Noa Avishag Schnall, who's currently sailing to Gaza with another flotilla, and the United States' unprecedented security agreement with Qatar. Also covered: how MAGA is advocating for an El Salvador-style judicial takeover, Russia's “hybrid war” on Europe and its shadow fleet of decrepit oil tankers, and the over-the-hill rock stylings of Argentina's embattled president, Javier Milei. Finally, Tommy speaks with Michael Froman, president of the Council on Foreign Relations and former U.S. Trade Representative under Obama, about Trump's trade “strategy,” the death of the rules-based system of global commerce, and why the humble soybean has become a flashpoint in the trade wars.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Earlier this year, a tweet went out from the official account of the Democratic Party, tagging the Trump advisor Stephen Miller. It was an image of what appeared to be a simple hotel room chair. But for those in the know, it was much more than that: It was a “cuck chair,” an online meme straight out of a popular genre of hardcore pornography in which a man watches his partner have sex with another man. How did we get to a place where the Democrats could flame a political opponent with an image out of cucking porn and have millions of people immediately understand it? In this episode we trace the complicated and intricate history of the cuck. It's a history that includes everything from Jacobean dramas to World War II pilots to, yes, pornography, as well as a host of deeply American prejudices that have become a lot less submerged over the last 10 years. And we also situate the cuck within a larger context, one in which porn is the elephant in the room of American culture. It's a potent force, shaping and reflecting our very wants and desires and it is constantly seeping into mainstream culture—and yet we don't analyze, critique, or even talk about it very much because, well, it's porn. In this NSFW episode, you'll hear from: Slate staff writer Luke Winkie who wrote about the tweet that kicked this episode off; Samantha Cole, one of co-founders of 404 Media and the author of How Sex Changed the Internet and the Internet Changed Sex; Jennifer Panek, professor of English at the University of Ottawa; sex therapist and clinical psychologist Dr. David S. Ley; Dr. Justin Lehmiller, social psychologist, senior research fellow at the Kinsey Institute, and podcast host; Mireille Miller-Young, associate professor of feminist studies at UC Santa Barbara and the author of A Taste for Brown Sugar: Black Women in Pornography, and New York Magazine tech columnist John Herrman.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, the West is committing suicide through weakness, appeasement, and open borders, allowing a fusion of Marxists and Islamists to exploit democratic systems via immigration. It is very important that we get the hostages out of Gaza, but it's also important that Hamas is destroyed, because they will come back again. It is an ideology that doesn't die, and the West doesn't understand the ideology, or people in the West don't want to deal with it. Anti-Semitism is spreading in Western capitals, including New York. It's a gut cancer and President Trump is the only Western leader fighting it through actions on colleges, funding, and preventing U.S. decline like Britain and France. Also, on the second anniversary of Hamas's October 7 attack Zohran Mamdani accused Prime Minister Netanyahu of launching a genocidal war in Gaza. Mamdani is a Marxist Islamist who camouflages his Hamas-loving agenda under civil liberties rhetoric. Mamdani is silent on Muslim-on-Muslim violence in Syria, Yemen, and Lebanon by groups like Hezbollah. Later Jim Trusty calls in to discuss the lenient 97-month sentence given to Nichola Roske for attempting to assassinate Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh in June 2022. The Biden-appointed Judge Paula Xinis Boardman showed bias by factoring in Roske's transgender identity and leftist politics, imposing a term far below the 360-month-to-life guidelines. This kid glove treatment sets a dangerous precedent that could encourage copycat ideological attacks on constitutional figures. Trusty also criticizes lawfare tactics in Portland, where local officials submit polished affidavits claiming no need for the National Guard amid riots, downplaying issues like lasers and guillotines near ICE headquarters. Finally, Speaker Mike Johnson calls in to explain that the Democrats, led by Chuck Schumer, are using a government shutdown as a distraction and red herring to provide Schumer political cover against potential challenges from figures like AOC. The health care subsidy issue is a fabricated fight, as it was a COVID-era policy set to expire December 31 by Democrats themselves. Learn more about your ad choices.

The new Supreme Court term started on Monday, and the justices have a lot on their plates. They'll be deciding a host of big issues in the coming months – including if Trump can fire board members of the Federal Reserve and whether his tariff policy is overstepping presidential authority. But first, on Tuesday, the court heard arguments in Chiles v. Salazar, a case focused on whether conversion talk-therapy for minors is protected by the First Amendment. So, for more on this Supreme Court term and what we can expect, we spoke to Kate Shaw, co-host of Crooked Media's Strict Scrutiny and a law professor at the University of Pennsylvania.And in headlines, National Guard troops arrive at an Army training center outside of Chicago, Attorney General Pam Bondi avoids questions from Democratic lawmakers, and more terrible news for furloughed federal workers.Show Notes:Check out Strict Scrutiny – https://tinyurl.com/7dfbhmc5Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The criminal indictment of the Trump Organization puts Donald Trump squarely in the crosshairs of legal jeopardy. But a wounded Trump is still a dangerous Trump; creating a new urgency to jumpstart his political life and remain viable as a candidate. He won't run because he's afraid to lose. But as long as his MAGA base thinks he'll run, the more money he can raise. In addition, he can claim that the DA is only coming after him as a political vendetta. But to remain viable, Trump must appeal to an extremist base that is more prone to conspiracy thinking, violence, racism and hatred. All of this was on display last weekend at his first public rally and will only intensify as his legal troubles mount.

More To The Story: OpenAI became the world's most valuable private company last week after a stock deal pushed the value of the artificial intelligence developer to $500 billion. But when OpenAI was founded a decade ago, the company's approach to artificial intelligence wasn't taken seriously in Silicon Valley. Tech journalist Karen Hao has been covering OpenAI's astounding rise for years and recently wrote a book about the company, Empire of AI: Dreams and Nightmares in Sam Altman's OpenAI. She says that while many in Silicon Valley warn of AI's sci fi–like threats, the real risks are already here. (The Center for Investigative Reporting, which produces Reveal and More To The Story, is currently suing OpenAI and Microsoft for copyright infringement.) On this week's More To The Story, Hao sounds the alarm about the risks to the planet from AI's growth, examines the Trump administration's efforts to deregulate the industry, and explains why the version of AI being developed by Silicon Valley could destabilize democracy.Producer: Josh Sanburn | Editor: Kara McGuirk-Allison | Theme music: Fernando Arruda and Jim Briggs | Copy editor: Nikki Frick | Deputy executive producer: Taki Telonidis | Executive producer: Brett Myers | Executive editor: James West | Host: Al Letson Donate today at Revealnews.org/more Subscribe to our weekly newsletter at Revealnews.org/weekly Follow us on Instagram and Bluesky Read: America's Worst Polluters See a Lifeline in Power-Gobbling AI—and Donald Trump (Mother Jones)Listen: Is AI Pushing Us Closer to Nuclear Disaster?

Michael Wolff returns with Joanna Coles for a blistering look at the latest fractures inside Trump's MAGA coalition. From Trump's resurfacing of Epstein anxieties and his strange new pardon predicament with Ghislaine Maxwell, to his growing unease over Israel and the rise of Christian nationalism, Wolff sketches a portrait of a president losing control of the populist movement he created. The Daily Beast's Chief Content Officer Joanna Coles presses Wolff on Tucker Carlson's ambitions, online swirling Charlie Kirk conspiracies, and J.D. Vance's quiet maneuvering for power. Together, they dissect how Trump's cult of loyalty is turning on itself and why his old tactics may finally be failing. Is Trump still the master of the MAGA hivemind, or has he become just another voice in the chaos he unleashed? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Donald Trump orders National Guard troops to Chicago and Portland, making good on his promise to generals to use American cities as "training grounds." Jon, Tommy, and Lovett discuss the court order—issued by a Trump-appointed judge—that blocked the deployment in Portland, the military-style immigration raids that rocked Chicago last week, and the signals that Stephen Miller and the rest of the Trump administration are sending about what's next for blue America. Then, the guys check in on the ongoing government shutdown, react to Trump's unexpected hint that he may be willing to negotiate with Democrats on healthcare subsidies, and discuss what it'll take for Prop 50—California's redistricting response act—to pass in November. Then, Ben Smith, Editor-in-Chief of Semafor and host of the Mixed Signals podcast, joins Tommy to talk about Bari Weiss taking over CBS News, the right's attack on free speech and Jimmy Kimmel, and the future of network media.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

1. FBI Spied on Republicans: The FBI performed a “toll analysis” (a term for examining phone call records and metadata) on eight Republican senators and one congressman. This was supposedly part of a secretive investigation codenamed “Arctic Frost”. The surveillance allegedly occurred after Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago raid and during Jack Smith’s investigation into Trump and the January 6th events. The senators targeted include: Lindsey Graham, Bill Haggerty, Josh Hawley, Dan Sullivan, Tommy Tuberville, Ron Johnson, Cynthia Lummis, and Marsha Blackburn — with Representative Mike Kelly also mentioned. An introductory narrator asserting the FBI’s wrongdoing. Quoted remarks from Senators Ron Johnson, Chuck Grassley, Bill Haggerty, and others, condemning the alleged surveillance. Repeated claims that this represents “weaponization of government” and “political persecution.” Statements linking this case to prior alleged abuses under the Obama administration and investigations into Trump.

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 Tuesday takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Deep State Weaponization Broadcasting live from Washington, D.C., Buck Sexton covers the latest developments in the Trump administration’s showdown with Democrat-run cities, focusing on Chicago and Portland. The discussion kicks off with explosive revelations about FBI surveillance of Republican Senators, including Lindsey Graham, Josh Hawley, and Ron Johnson, as part of the controversial “Arctic Frost” operation. Buck highlights Attorney General Pam Bondi’s testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee, exposing the weaponization of the FBI and DOJ and the urgent need for reform under Director Patel. Who is Leading the Democrats? Buck recaps President Trump’s Oval Office remarks, where Trump blasts Democrats for having “no leadership and no policy,” calling out figures like Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Buck underscores Trump’s point, arguing that Democrats lack a clear leader for the first time in decades, with contenders like Gavin Newsom and J.B. Pritzker jockeying for influence while the party drifts toward radicalism. Remembering Israel's 9/11 Karol Markowitz, host of The Karol Markowicz Show, reflecting on the two-year anniversary of the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack on Israel. Karol shares her perspective on the enduring trauma for Jews worldwide, the resilience of Israelis, and the disturbing rise of antisemitism in Western societies. The discussion dismantles false narratives of “genocide” against Palestinians, highlighting how media outlets like The New York Times manipulate imagery to push propaganda. Buck and Karol underscore President Trump’s unwavering support for Israel, his clarity on Middle East policy, and the broader civilizational stakes tied to unchecked immigration and radical ideology. The conversation shifts to emerging hostility toward Israel from some voices on the right, with Karol warning against conspiracy theories and emphasizing that polls still show overwhelming conservative support for Israel. She frames antisemitism as a “mind virus” that can consume individuals and societies, urging vigilance against its spread. Buck reinforces the historical context of violent indoctrination in Gaza and calls for moral clarity in U.S. foreign policy. Living with Autism In a compelling second half, Buck welcomes Leland Vittert, NewsNation host and author of Born Lucky: A Dedicated Father, a Grateful Son, and My Journey with Autism. Leland shares his deeply personal story of overcoming severe autism through his father’s relentless commitment to adaptation and resilience. The discussion explores the flaws in expert-driven approaches that encourage meeting children “where they are” instead of pushing them to thrive. Leland details practical strategies his father used—like instilling discipline, teaching social skills, and building character—that transformed his life. Buck relates with his own childhood struggle with a speech impediment, reinforcing the theme that parental involvement and perseverance can change destinies. The segment also tackles the surge in autism diagnoses, with Leland calling it “the scientific question of our time” and criticizing partisan attacks on efforts to find answers. His book offers hope and actionable guidance for parents navigating challenges from autism to ADHD and beyond.

It's happened. Candace Owens has finally released the text messages from a group chat that proves something about Charlie Kirk and Israel maybe. Rolling Stone has drawn attention to the fact that the “Manosphere” influencers aren't into Trump anymore. Let's check in on that.

Donald Trump continues to terrorize urban populations with militarized ICE raids while trying every loophole he can find to justify using the actual military in U.S. cities.Illinois Governor JB Pritzker talks with Rachel Maddow about his threat to leave the National Governors Association of the group won't speak out against Donald Trump's use of the National Guard against U.S. cities. Pritzker explains how he sees the militarization of ICE and Border Patrol agents as a normalizing precursor to establishing a military presence in cities in time to interfere with the 2026 election. And as individuals find ways to assert peaceful resistance against the Trump regime, major corporations, like Apple, are giving up without a fight. Apple removed from its app store an app called ICEBlock that allowed people to flag where ICE raids were taking place. The app's creator, Joshua Aaron, talks with Rachel.

For the past four months, President Donald Trump has been sending the National Guard into cities that protest his policies. First, it was Los Angeles. Then, it was Washington D.C. And now, it's Portland, Oregon and Chicago. An Oregon federal judge blocked Trump's deployment of the state's National Guard on Saturday — and then also stopped the Trump administration from sending California's National Guard troops to Portland on Sunday night. But not all of these cities are getting help from the courts. On Monday, a federal judge declined to stop the Trump administration from deploying members of the Texas National Guard to Chicago – over the express objections of Illinois Democratic Governor JB Pritzker, who called the move an “unconstitutional invasion.”So to talk more about the legality and context for sending U.S. military into our own cities, we spoke to Elizabeth Goitein. She's the senior director of the Liberty and National Security Program at the Brennan Center for Justice at NYU Law.And in headlines, the shutdown continues with no end in sight, President Trump says he's going to “take a look” at a pardon for convicted child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell, and the Social Security Administration Commissioner will also take on the brand new role of CEO of the IRS.Show Notes:Check out Elizabeth's piece – https://tinyurl.com/ypf2w6v8Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Manhattan DA's case against the Trump Organization and Donald Trump has put intense pressure on the former President as he finds himself increasingly cornered. The prospect of an indictment has forced him back out on the campaign trail as he seeks to shield himself from prosecution by spinning the case as yet another political witch hunt. At the same time, the GOP must reckon with the fact that for good or ill, Trump is still the center of the Republican universe and thus they need to change the narrative. In the past several months, the right has engaged in a propaganda war to white wash the history of the Trump presidency and what happened on January 6th. The result has been a steady drip of stunning and shameless lies. Finally, political strategist and Democratic stalwart Joe Trippi joins Mea Culpa to discuss the fall out caused by the GOP's authoritarian crusade.

In the Trump-era, and within the public health narrative shaped by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., a debunked but persistent myth has taken hold: that infant vaccinations cause autism. Despite overwhelming scientific evidence disproving this claim, the narrative remains central to anti-vaccine rhetoric. Professor Richard Rinker, a cultural anthropologist and director of The George Washington University Institute for Ethnographic Research, joins Chris Hayes to examine how autism has become a political obsession, recent inflection points, what the research says about autism being underdiagnosed or overdiagnosed and more.

They also discuss the shutdown negotiations, Ghislaine's pardon request, CBS, Prop 50, and a bit of good old-fashioned pearl-clutching. Buckle up!

Anthony Scaramucci joins the Beast's Joanna Coles for a no-holds-barred look inside Trump's turbulent second term. Trump's former first-term Communications Director and longtime Trump confidant-turned-critic calls Trump “the wicked witch of the West Wing” and predicts the moment he finally melts. Scaramucci revisits his infamous 11 days in the White House, missing his son's birth, and the cost of blind loyalty. He tears into the GOP's pretenders to Trump's throne from J.D. Vance's obsequiousness to Marco Rubio's shape-shifting. Coles keeps the chaos sharp, pulling out Scaramucci's rawest insights on power, ego, and redemption. And it all builds to one cutting question: if Trump's the wicked witch of the West Wing, who's bold enough to throw the water? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

They also discuss Trump's troubling admission about Ghislaine Maxwell. We examine Trump's escalating attempt to deploy the National Guard into Democratic-led cities, with multiple court battles erupting over his authority to do so, and the mounting economic damage caused by his reckless tariffs that continue to hammer U.S. manufacturing and consumer prices.

A new kind of McCarthyism has settled in at the Justice Department, where career prosecutors—including those handling tough national security cases—are getting canned for voicing any opposition to politically-motivated demands from top DOJ officials. And those who survive the ongoing purge are literally working in fear that they are being surveilled by the FBI. Meanwhile, MTG may play a role in resolving the shutdown.
