While D.C. residents are enjoying feeling safe on the streets of their community once again, angry middle class suburban protesters want the National Guard to leave the crime ridden city. When Vice President JD Vance and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth visited the National Guard troops at Union Station this week, protesters used their First Amendment rights to demand things go back to the status quo in the nation's Capital.    On this week's edition of Problematic Women, we discuss the radical left's bizarre campaign against the Trump administration's efforts to improve safety in Washington's D.C.    Also on today's show, President Donald Trump is working to secure a peace deal between Ukraine and Russia, which might explain why Trump has not made many public appearances since his meeting with European leaders on Monday - he's business negotiating a peace plan.     And Daily Caller White House Correspondent Reagan Reese joins the show to give us an inside look into Air Force One and the press briefing room of the White House.    Plus, the Travis Kelce photoshoot is … well, we'll let you decide.

From Jordan's Waters to Eternal Life: Living Christ's Command of Love The Homily weaves together the Gospel command of Christ . . . . . . to “love one another as I have loved you” with the biblical symbolism of the Jordan River, the sacrament of Baptism, the Eucharist, and the witness of St. Maximilian Kolbe. The crossing of the Jordan foreshadowed baptism, where Christ consecrated the waters to grant eternal life. Baptism is not merely symbolic but transforms us into sharers of Christ's death and resurrection, directing us toward our eternal homeland. The Eucharist deepens this call, reminding us that love means self-giving. St. Maximilian Kolbe embodies this truth, freely offering his life in place of another at Auschwitz, living out Christ's command of sacrificial love. The newly consecrated tabernacle at the shrine thus becomes a profound sign of Christ's abiding presence, love, and the command to imitate Him. Listen to this Meditation Media.

Democrats and Republicans are locked in fierce redistricting battles nationwide—maneuvers that could shift the balance of power in the upcoming midterm elections. Congressman Mike Lawler (R-NY) joins the Rundown to discuss these high-stakes redistricting fights, what impact the ‘Big Beautiful Bill' may have on voters ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, and how the rise of progressive Democrats may influence crime across the country. Earlier this year, National Guard troops were sent to Los Angeles. Now, they're in Washington, D.C., and hundreds have been arrested following President Trump's declaration of a public safety emergency and deployment of the National Guard. Meanwhile, the Justice Department's investigation into whether crime statistics were manipulated to suggest a decline in crime in our nation's capital—a claim denied by city officials. Fox News Sunday anchor Shannon Bream joins the podcast with the latest on the President's D.C. crackdown, Russia-Ukraine peace progress, and redistricting.

Federal Prosecutors had evidence that former FBI director James Comey authorized leaks of classified intel to reporters but chose NOT TO BRING criminal charges. Now Operation Arctic Fox has been criminally referred to Pam Bondi and Kash Patel for investigation and prosecution.

Trump, thereby attempting to overthrow the constitutional republic of the United States.

Your favorite psychologists, John Gartner and Harry Segal, review Trump's disastrous Alaska summit and marvel at how he has reverted to Putin's absurd Ukraine talking points. They also speak with Richard Wood, eminent clinical psychologist and expert on malignant narcissism, who shares his insights on Trump's pathology. Be sure to subscribe wherever you get your podcasts: Our site Subscribe on iTunes Subscribe on Spotify Subscribe on Amazon Music Subscribe on iHeartRadio We open with a “therapy session” framework—our way of inviting you into a collective examination of how Trump's behavior has infiltrated our daily lives. Too often, political coverage tip-toes around psychological insights. Not here. We argue that to understand Trump's volatility, his tantrums, and his rule-by-instinct style, you have to start with his inner life. Dr. Woods steps in to define malignant narcissism: a toxic cocktail of grandiosity, ruthlessness, and paranoia. He walks us through examples—obsessive self-aggrandizement, zero empathy for victims, and a ferocious need to dominate. When you hear Trump lob insults or bully subordinates, that's not business as usual. It's the playbook of someone for whom status and control override every other impulse. Too many pundits tiptoe around Trump's slurred speeches, jumbled tweets, and off-script rants. We don't. We break down the warning signs of cognitive fragility—memory lapses, word-salad tangents, even motor-skill stumbles. These aren't just gaffes; they're red flags that a leader who can't stay on message is a risk to national security. Why do millions still cheer him on? In a frank discussion, we and Dr. Woods explore how Trump transforms fear into solidarity. His promises of vengeance and identity-based appeals speak to grievances deeper than policy. When democracy feels abstract, demagoguery feels personal—and that's how authoritarian figures like Trump cement loyalty. We draw parallels to his moves in Washington itself: weaponizing local police, twisting museum exhibits to sanitize his image, and rewriting history to suit his narrative. It's not accidental. It's an orchestrated strategy to freeze dissent and manufacture consent. This episode doesn't leave you helpless. We outline concrete steps—peer education, fact-based conversations, and refusing to normalize destructive behavior cloaked in charismatic populism. Psychological insight isn't therapy; it's ammunition. It helps us name the tactics, defang the threats, and reclaim our public life. If you want to see past the tweets and the rallies and understand the man behind the façade, tune in to Shrinking Trump wherever you get your podcasts. Let's sharpen our collective lens—because democracy demands more than headline-chasing. It demands that we understand, confront, and ultimately shrink the power of rulers unfit to lead.

Episode No. 720 is a summer clips episode featuring artist Tidawhitney Lek. Lek is among the 30+ artists featured in "Spirit House" at the Henry Art Gallery at the University of Washington. The exhibition considers how 33 contemporary artists of Asian descent challenge the boundary between life and death through art, including how the spiritual relates to diaspora, connections to ancestral homelands, and the experience of feeling present within multiple cultures and multiple geographies. The show's curatorial framework was inspired by spirit houses, small devotional structures found throughout Thailand that provide shelter for the supernatural. "Spirit House" originated at the Cantor Arts Center, Stanford University, and was curated by Aleesa Pitchamarn Alexander with Kathryn Cua. It is on view in Seattle through January 11, 2026. An excellent exhibition catalogue, titled “Spirit House: Hauntings in Contemporary Art of the Asian Diaspora,” was published by the Cantor and Gregory R. Miller & Co. Amazon and Bookshop offer it for $45-50. Lek is a southern California-based, Cambodian-American artist whose work examines narratives surrounding and the daily experiences of a first-generation American born to immigrant parents. Her work has been included in exhibitions at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego and the Institute of Contemporary Art Miami, and she's been featured in the Made in LA biennial at the Hammer Museum, University of California, Los Angeles. Her first museum solo show was at the Long Beach Museum of Art in 2023.

After headline-grabbing meetings in Alaska and Washington, members of the world's media are on high alert, as Donald Trump talks up the chances of a summit between Volodymyr Zelensky and Vladimir Putin. So, has a change in tone from the US on security guarantees moved the needle? Is a temporary ceasefire now less likely?

The Department of Justice (DOJ) is investigating claims that the Washington, D.C., police department manipulated crime data to publish more favorable stats claiming the city is far more safe than what is being said about it. This, just over a week after President Trump federalized the Metropolitan Police Department to respond to a series of high-profile killings, violent attacks and car-jackings. Federalizing the MPD also included sending hundreds of National Guard members and various federal law enforcement agents from various states to the nation's capital. Fox's John Saucier speaks to David Spunt, Washington D.C. based correspondent for FOX News Channel, who shares the latest on the investigation and the current law enforcement surge in Washington D.C.

It's also 90 minutes of nonstop propaganda for Amazon and surveillance technology. We had fun doing this! Let us know in Spotify's comments what you think, and what other movies you think we should review on the show. Or send us an email at hello@tangoti.com .

Washington, D.C. is proving the left’s excuses on crime are nothing but lies. With President Trump and federal authorities taking control, crime in the nation’s capital is finally being crushed. When leaders have the will and the common sense to act, the streets can be cleaned up—fast. Meanwhile, look at Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, and every other Democrat-run disaster zone. Crime is out of control, homelessness is rampant, and chaos rules the streets. These cities should be embarrassed—humiliated—that it took Trump and his team to show what’s possible when you stop coddling criminals and start protecting citizens. On today’s show, I’ll break down how D.C. is turning the tide while blue cities crumble. This is living proof: crime is not some unsolvable “big city problem.” It’s a leadership problem. And the contrast could not be more glaring.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

European leaders visited the White House on Monday, where President Trump had an Oval Office meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Coming just days after Trump's Alaskan summit with Vladimir Putin, many questions still remain: what will it take to negotiate an end to the war? And what do “security guarantees” look like for Ukraine, for Europe, and even for Russia? Former NSC advisor to President George W. Bush and Beacon Global Strategies managing director Michael Allen about the territory demands from Russia, European leaders pushing for Ukraine's security guarantees, and the historic peace talks being shepherded by the Trump administration. One week into President Trump's crime crackdown in Washington, D.C., and Democrats continue to push back, arguing that crime data suggests the President's actions in the nation's capital are unnecessary and that violence is not "out of control." Mayor Muriel Bowser has called the administration's actions "unsettling and unprecedented." Rafael Mangual, a fellow at the Manhattan Institute and member of the Council on Criminal Justice, joins to discuss President Trump's actions, what is next for the city, and why he says crime statistics don't always reflect reality.
