The host delivers an unfiltered, scorching critique of Donald Trump and JD Vance over an upcoming, secretive agreement with Iran. Echoing severe warnings from the New York Post and National Review, the segment highlights how the deal surrenders the Strait of Hormuz and lifts the critical naval blockade—handing billions in oil revenue back to the IRGC with zero nuclear verification. Later, the show targets the South Carolina Republican gubernatorial runoff, slamming Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette for standing with Governor Henry McMaster and staying silent during key redistricting battles. Voters are strongly urged to head to the early voting polls on Wednesday and Thursday to break the current state political machine.

"We may not all be the same organization, but we all have a very similar goal, and that is a better world for cats ultimately." This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund, OcuTrap, and Drop Traps: Beginning and Advanced Certification Workshop. To celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the Community Cats Podcast, host Stacy LeBaron is joined by Kristen Petrie, Community Cats Central's Technical Tabby, and frequent guest/guest host Mike Phillips of the Urban Cat League in New York City.

Silicon Valley spent big in California's primaries. Venture capitalists, artificial intelligence executives and tech billionaires poured tens of millions of dollars into races up and down the ballot, trying to influence who will regulate them. For the most part, their preferred candidates fell short, a sign of growing anti-tech sentiment among voters. However, tech-backed super PACs managed to secure some notable victories.  KQED's Lesley McClurg is joined by Politico's Silicon Valley reporter Christine Mui to assess the impact of big tech's big spending.

The Trump administration wants access to Wisconsin's voter rolls ahead of November's elections. A Dane County facility that raised beagles used for lab tests will close for good. And, almost a dozen Wisconsin breweries closed last year. Is craft beer on the decline?

CannCon and Ghost open Tuesday with somber news first: a B-52 crash at Edwards Air Force Base claims all eight servicemen aboard, the latest in a string of unexplained military aircraft losses. From there the show pivots into a packed lineup. Trump's latest Save America Act post adds two new conditions, and CannCon and Ghost debate whether the bill's failure to pass is actually a deliberate gatekeeping move to avoid a "fortified elections, case closed" narrative that would leave the black box voting machines untouched. ICE quietly starts pulling local voter files in Texas, the FBI raids Ohio's leading voter registration nonprofit with 125 agents, and Trump appoints James McDonald, one of the two attorneys who investigated FTX's collapse, as the new US Attorney for the Southern District of New York, days after Sam Bankman-Fried's pardon request and appeal loss. Norm Eisen's States United nonprofit comes under House Oversight scrutiny for deputizing private lawyers to prosecute Trump-aligned alternate electors in Arizona and Minnesota. Gavin Newsom announces he is under DOJ investigation and casts himself as Trump's next political target, while CannCon breaks down how his wife's nonprofit funnels donor and state money into her own for-profit film company through a school licensing scheme.

May once again showed Democrats significantly underperforming Republicans, but also NPAs and minor parties. This has led to a new record advantage for Republicans in the state of Florida as the mid-term election cycle continues to heat up – including the recent congressional redistricting aimed at providing Republicans with four additional pickup opportunities within the state.

Voters in Washington, D.C., are choosing a new mayor for the first time in more than a decade, but the election has taken on national significance. President Trump has warned that a victory by progressive candidate Janeese Lewis George could prompt efforts to place the city under greater federal control. Legal experts say dismantling D.C.'s home rule would require congressional action, but the issue has become a central topic in the campaign. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The FBI searched the Cleveland offices of Ohio Organizing Collaborative, a group that organizes political and voter engagement activities for left-leaning and progressive causes.Before Ohio lawmakers left for their summer recess, they made a big push to try to crack down on types of welfare fraud, with new restrictions on both Medicaid and SNAP benefits.However, their efforts to eliminate tax credits for data centers were hampered by a 40-year, 100% sales tax credit agreed to by then-Gov. John Kasich's administration during his second term. That tax break to Google, Amazon and Meta and other companies has cost the state an estimated $2.3 billion.We'll discuss this and more on the Weekly Reporter Roundtable show.Guests:Karen Kasler, bureau chief of the Ohio Public Radio Statehouse News BureauAndrew Tobias, state government and politics reporter for Signal OhioMegan Henry, reporter for the Ohio Capital Journal(Photo: Samantha Hendrickson/AP)

Voters elected former Frisco ISD trustee Mark Hill as mayor on Saturday, backing a campaign that emphasized unity and inclusion in a city undergoing rapid growth and demographic change.

The swing state of Minnesota, which has been Blue for the pass 16 years, is likely to flip Red in November.  A vast majority of Minnesotans are tired of the Democratic control that has brought the state down in recent years, mainly due to the fraud they have allowed to happen.  The Democratic party has lost momentum with swing voters because of how radical they have become.  President Trump had to walk out of an interview with Kristen Weltier on "Meet the Press," due to the fact that she was being unprofessional and attacking the President instead of conducting proper interview protical.  -Thank you for listening!- Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/brian-wallenberg-show--3256416/support.

President Trump said a potential deal to end Iran war is close, but skeptics say it could be another false start. Aamer Madhani of the Associated Press breaks down what’s different this time. Voters in Switzerland head to the polls Sunday to decide whether their country should cap its population at 10 million. The New Yorker’s Jessi Jezewska Stevens joins to discuss how the vote could transform the Swiss economy and its relationship with the E.U.

The Wall Street Journal’s James Romoser explains how that’s affecting some of the term’s most consequential cases. Plus, Trump nominated U.S. attorney Jay Clayton as DNI, El Niño has officially begun, and how a deep run by the U.S. men’s soccer team in the World Cup could bring the country together.

**The 43,000-Vote Flip: Ballot Harvesting and the War Over Voter Rolls** In this hard-hitting segment, the hosts dissect the dramatic reversal in the Los Angeles mayoral primary race, where candidate Spencer Pratt's initial 40,000-vote lead over progressive Nithya Raman completely evaporated into a 43,000-vote swing days after election night. The commentary levels a critical gaze at California's highly opaque voting system, highlighting how a week-long mail-in ballot extension window and zero mandatory chain of custody over collected ballots open the door to widespread harvesting vulnerabilities within vulnerable populations. The monologue connects these localized election results to broader systemic clashes. Pointing to Judicial Watch's legal battle to scrub over 870,000 dead or relocated individuals from California's universal mail-in registry, the host details a multi-layered counteroffensive from the executive branch. This includes the White House Fraud Task Force stripping $250 million from the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority for flagrant mismanagement, alongside a high-stakes legislative battle surrounding the SAVE Act to force comprehensive, federal-level voter roll compliance.

**The Will to Win: Trump's 30% Blind Spot in the Iran Conflict** In this live Friday call-in segment, the host addresses a jam-packed week of political developments, beginning with the recent immigration raid in Abbeville, South Carolina. The monologue breaks down the severe, non-victimless reality of identity fraud facilitated by plant managers before transitioning to a lively exchange with a caller regarding national security, election integrity, and the efficacy of voter roll purges based on the Ron DeSantis Florida playbook. The core of the episode features a detailed debate with a caller from Simpsonville over the strategic paralysis defining the current conflict with Iran. Defending American military readiness against claims of supply-chain ossification and logistical quagmires, the host argues that the nation's primary hurdle is political will rather than capability. Pointing to Donald Trump's own admission that the U.S. halted operations with 30% of military targets left untouched, the host strongly criticizes the administration's decision to leave active Iranian radar installations and launch facilities intact. The commentary concludes with a demand for strategic clarity, questioning why the U.S. is turning off maritime transponders to hide from a regime it possesses the total capability to neutralize.

AP's Lisa Dwyer reports that an Ohio voter registration group's offices have been searched.

A marathon legislative session this week in Columbus produced several measures that we'll be unpacking here to begin the show. We start with what didn't get done: new rules for data centers. That legislation went off the rails over tax abatement. Data centers currently receive a 100% sales tax exemption. Proposed legislation would have reduced that tax break to between 50% and 75%. But many lawmakers, responding to concerns from constituents, say the industry should receive no exemption at all. Property tax relief remains a priority for Ohioans and lawmakers took action during their marathon session to provide help qualifying senior and disabled homeowners. More than 700,000 Homestead Exemption recipients will receive a nearly $500 credit toward their tax bill in January. Voters will decide whether to put photo-identification requirements for in-person voters – already a law in Ohio – into the constitution after lawmakers approved a constitutional amendment for the fall ballot. In a separate measure lawmakers sent to the governor a bill that extends voter ID to those casting votes by absentee/mail-in ballot. Ohio Republicans who say they are concerned about fraud in Medicaid in Ohio passed new regulations but first stripped out a provision that would have denied funding for those who care for sick family members. That provision had sparked spirited protests at the Statehouse. The Cleveland Clinic agreed to a deal with the Department of Justice this week that will end gender-affirming care for minors for at least the next 20 years. Prompted by an investigation into billing irregularities for such care, the agreement would remain in effect even if the current state law prohibiting gender-affirming care would be overturned. The MetroHealth System will not seek recertification of its Level 2 pediatric trauma center in 2027, though it will still treat children through its broader Level 1 trauma center for adults which also can treat minors. It will transfer pediatric cases to University Hospitals, which runs the region's only Level 1 pediatric trauma center, saying it's better for the broader system not to duplicate efforts. We will discuss these topics and the rest of the week's news on the “Sound of Ideas Reporters Roundtable.” Guests:- Abbey Marshall, Local Government Reporter, Ideastream Public Media- Conor Morris, Education Reporter, Ideastream Public Media- Karen Kasler, Bureau Chief, Ideastream Statehouse News Bureau

If there were a throughline for North Dakota's recent primary vote that ran from the top-of-the-ticket statewide races to local competitions like the Fargo mayoral race, it would be the rejection of belligerent ideologues in favor of pragmatic public servants. That's the argument Fargo's mayor-elect Josh Boschee made on this episode of Plain Talk. "North Dakotans want people who are going to get to work," Boschee said, as opposed to candidates who are "hung up on ideology." Voters want public servants, not talk radio hosts and influencers, it seems. Boschee, a long-time Democratic state Senator, won the nonpartisan race over City Commissioner Michelle Turnberg, a self-described "conservative" who has adopted a belligerent approach to elected office and remains in her current office. How will the new mayor contend with that sort of friction, which, in recent years, has become routine in Fargo's city government? He says he's ready for it. "I think some people want to frame it as, because we were two opponents, and we'll be working together, that there might be a lot of conflict, and that certainly may end up being true. But as you guys have seen me in the legislature, I mean, there are plenty of legislators that use a similar leadership style as Commissioner Turnberg, and I've been able to work with them, especially when we focus on the issues that we share." Boschee says he's focused on being a mayor for everyone in Fargo, including those who voted against him. "I've been in a lot of elections, and what I've learned, for one thing, is elections are about addition and not subtraction," he said. "And when you only focus on your base, you only focus on the people who are cheerleading you or pat you on the back every time you say something  or comment on Facebook, you're not going to grow your coalition." In his victory speech after the election, Boschee made reference to a recent Facebook post made by Fargo-area Rep. Desiree Morton, objecting to volunteers of Somali heritage volunteering to help the campaigns of Republican U.S. Rep. Julie Fedorchak and local legislative candidates. He told us he thought it was something important to highlight. "20% of Fargo are people of color. A good number of them are folks who come from other parts of the world," he said. "I've stood up to my legislative colleagues when they've said inappropriate things about other North Dotans, and that's not going to change in the mayor's office." Also on this episode, co-host Chad Oban and I discussed the similarities between Boschee and Gov. Kelly Armstrong, despite their obvious ideological differences, as well as the decline of North Dakota's populist movement.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he covers today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down mounting allegations of voter fraud in the Los Angeles mayoral race, explains why California's electoral system may be structurally designed for manipulation, and lays out what July 10th means for the future of that fight. The Trump Administration is also making its most aggressive push yet to strip citizenship from foreign-born Americans who lied or committed crimes during the naturalization process, but Bryan explains why the Senate filibuster remains the single biggest obstacle to doing it at any meaningful scale. On the espionage front, China, Russia, and Israel are all ramping up intelligence operations against the U.S., and the bizarre case of CIA officer David Rush and his basement full of gold bars keeps getting stranger. Plus, screwworms have now crossed into New Mexico, infecting a dog in Lea County and triggering Canada to block live animal exports from Texas, with Bryan offering a clear warning for pet owners in the region.
