BULLETIN: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN SEPTEMBER 3 2026 Trump's favorite Goebbels impersonator Maria Bartiromo has been fired by Fox - I believe directly by Rupert Murdoch - for telling Trump that Fox News had ordered her and others to not give credence to Trump's July speech in which he promulgated the hallucination that China had stolen the 2020 election which he lost, from him. That she was fired was evident from the timing: it is the proverbial "Take Out The Trash" Day (the Thursday before the four-day Labor Day weekend); she was given no chance to say goodbye; she is not leaving for another job. Oliver Darcy of Status added the detail of Bartiromo ratting Murdoch out to Trump; he reports she even forwarded the text message from her Fox bosses telling staff not to buy into Trump's latest delusion, to the White House.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today's Headlines: Karoline Leavitt is leaving her job as White House Press Secretary at the end of August, officially to spend more time with her family, though the timing — coming weeks after her boss used the press corps as an Iran assassination decoy — raises some questions. On the never-ending reflecting pool drama, Jeanine Pirro convened a rare special grand jury to investigate the reflecting pool vandalism case, even after admitting there's no case against the former Olympian they arrested. Meanwhile, cyberattacks have hit water systems in 12 states over the past few years, with 30 Minnesota systems targeted last month alone, and what remains of US cyber intelligence confirmed Iran did it — but Trump is blaming Tim Walz, because of course he is. In other news, multiple US Navy sailors aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln have attempted to jump overboard during a record 250-consecutive-day deployment with severe shortages of soap, toothpaste, hot water, food, and toilet paper, and Pete Hegseth — who built himself a personal salon at the Pentagon — called their accounts "fake news." Josh Kushner and Bob Iger are buying the Los Angeles Lakers for a record $12.5 billion, pending NBA board approval, from an insurance billionaire currently under investigation, so something is sus about this one. In primary results, DSA candidate Francesca Hong lost the Wisconsin governor's Democratic primary to David Crowley — who had dropped out and then re-entered after Tony Evers panicked — Mike Lindell lost the Minnesota Republican governor primary and is claiming voter fraud, and Lindsey Graham's sister Darlindsey fell short of 50% in South Carolina heading to a runoff against congressman Ralph Norman on August 25th.

It's Thursday, August 13th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Haitian gangs target churches Violent gangs in Haiti are increasingly targeting churches. These gangs control up to 90 percent of the capital of Port-au-Prince. They have killed and kidnapped religious leaders and shut down dozens of churches. Catholic Bishop Joseph Gontrand Décoste told Aid to the Church in Need, “We are the last remaining retaining wall: moral, ethical, spiritual, and prophetic. … That is why they want to eliminate us.” Christians help victims of Columbia's earthquake Christians are bringing disaster relief to Colombia. A 7.4-magnitude earthquake struck the South American country on Monday. The quake killed 250 people and injured thousands more. Many Christian relief organizations are sending aid to the country, including Samaritan's Purse. Franklin Graham, the president, wrote on X, “We … are currently working to put together an airlift of relief supplies, including emergency shelter tarp and hygiene kits. I encourage you to pray for the people of this country.” Hebrews 13:16 says, “Do not forget to do good and to share, for with such sacrifices God is well pleased.” Send a much-needed donation to the Columbian victims of this earthquake through Samaritan's Purse. You'll find the donation link in our transcript today at www.TheWorldview.com. Mexican Bible Society translates Scriptures into 8 local languages The Bible Society of Mexico is celebrating six decades of ministry this year. The Bible has been translated into eight indigenous languages in the country. And the demand for Bibles is growing as Protestant churches expand their presence. Efraín Amaro is the head of distribution of the Bible society. He told Christian Daily International, “In 60 years, more than 374 million biblical materials have been distributed. We have reached 13 cities across the country with service and distribution centers.” Revelation 7:9-10 says, “After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, saying, ‘Salvation belongs to our God Who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!'” White House Press Secretary Karolien Leavitt embraces motherhood White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, age 28, will be leaving her position to fully embrace motherhood. She and her 60-year-old husband, Nicholas Riccio, have two children together -- their son Niko, 2, and Viviana who is three months. In a Truth Social post, President Donald Trump explained that she “will be departing her role at the end of the month so she can spend more time with her beautiful young children and family, a decision I totally understand and respect!” In a statement on X, Leavitt added, “Serving as the White House Press Secretary over the past year and a half has been the honor and adventure of a lifetime. I am incredibly grateful to President Trump for granting me so many extraordinary opportunities, such as working in the West Wing and spending countless hours in the Oval Office, flying around the world and meeting foreign leaders, and traveling across our beautiful country and meeting Americans from all walks of life. “The truth is, since returning to the White House after the birth of my daughter, I have felt in my heart that I cannot be the best mom my two young children deserve while devoting the constant time, energy, and attention required of the White House Press Secretary. And that is why I have ultimately made the bittersweet decision to depart the White House.” Titus 2:4-5 says, “Train the young women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled, pure, working at home, kind, and submissive to their own husbands, that the word of God may not be reviled.” Democrat socialist barely defeated in Wisconsin Socialist Democrats suffered a setback in Wisconsin on Tuesday. Moderate David Crowley barely defeated socialist Francesca Hong in the Democrat primary election for governor. According to NBC, the vote was 39.8% vs 39.3%. Just 3,796 votes separated the two in the statewide race. Leftist candidates had been winning many Democrat primaries this year. Despite being considered a moderate, Crowley believes that killing unborn babies is “healthcare” and must be “protected at all costs.” He made this comment in his victory speech. CROWLEY: “Every one of us has something much bigger to unite around. And that is keeping [Make America Great Again] extremism from bringing the chaos we see in Washington into our neighborhoods right here in the state of Wisconsin. From the very first day that I announced this campaign, I said the real threat wasn't any of my primary opponents. The real opponent has always been Tom Tiffany. That remains true today.” Tiffany, the Republican nominee for Wisconsin governor, is currently a member of Congress. The Washington Examiner reports that new Democratic-affiliated polling shows Crowley beating Tiffany by three points this fall, though the race is within the margin of error. Crowley leads Tiffany 47% to 44%, according to the poll by Protect Our Wisconsin, a group backed by the Democratic Governors Association. Federal gov't gave mega money to religious migrant resettlement groups The federal government funded major religious groups with hundreds of millions of dollars in migrant resettlement grants. The data comes from Brian Chau, the founder of Efforts News. Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk brought attention to this research in a post on X this week. In one case, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops received over $180 million dollars in migrant resettlement grants in 2024. That was over 80 percent of the group's revenue at the time. The contracts ended last year after the Trump administration cut funding to such programs. Women hold more jobs than men in America Women now hold more jobs than men in the U.S economy. A report from Indeed's Hiring Lab found the number of jobs held by men declined by 142,000 between February 2025 and February 2026. Over the same period, the number of jobs held by women grew by 298,000. The report noted, “More jobs are held by women than men in the non-farm economy, not because of a recession, but because of years of eroding male labor force participation.” Americans become skeptical of capitalism Americans are becoming less positive toward capitalism. A new Gallup survey found 54 percent of U.S. adults said they have a positive image of capitalism. That's down from 61 percent in 2010. Thirty-nine percent said they have a positive image of socialism. That's up from 36 percent in 2010. The drop in positivity toward capitalism has accelerated since 2021. Americans trust small, local businesses and churches And finally, Americans tend to trust small, local institutions, according to research from the Barna Group. U.S. adults put some of their highest trust in local businesses, individual Christians, and small churches. They put moderate trust in Christian pastors, Christian non-profits, and Christian businesses. But they had little trust for megachurches and celebrity pastors. Compared to 2024, Christian non-profits, charities, and small churches saw the largest growth on the trust index.

Oil prices declined on Thursday as investors assessed prospects for weaker global demand this year and higher U.S. crude stocks, though prices found support from a lack of progress in talks over the blockaded Strait of Hormuz and disruptions to supply.Brent futures were down $2.20, or 2.47 percent, at $86.78 a barrel by 13:24 GMT, trimming gains accumulated over the previous six sessions.Karoline Leavitt, the youngest White House press secretary in history, will depart her role at the end of the month, President Donald Trump announced Aug. 12.“Our wonderful White House Press Secretary, and one of my most trusted aides, Karoline Leavitt, will be departing her role at the end of the month so she can spend more time with her beautiful young children and family, a decision I totally understand and respect!” Trump posted on Truth Social. “Karoline will now be one of my top outside advisors, and an influential voice within the Republican Party, as we work to defy History, and conclusively win the Midterm Elections.”
Jon Herold leans on the chat for a lighter Thursday, opening with Karoline Leavitt's announced departure as White House Press Secretary and a fun debate over whether the role should even exist in the Trump era.

Other topics include a new executive order on transnational cybercrime, a Natalie Winters report on USDA funded halal meal programs in public schools, the national debt closing in on 40 trillion, and Trump's push for permanent Daylight Saving Time.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avalone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for August 12, 2026. We open with a legal argument that's hard to stomach: attorneys for the man accused of killing Charlie Kirk are reportedly arguing that the death penalty shouldn't be on the table because their client hit exactly who he was aiming for. We dig into why that "good marksman" defense doesn't hold up, why Utah's aggravating-factor standard for capital punishment matters here, and why the shooter's own alleged written admissions make the legal argument feel especially hollow. In our Top 3 things you need to know, we cover Karoline Leavitt's announced departure as White House Press Secretary at the end of August so she can focus on her young family, a sprawling marriage fraud case out of New York involving thousands of fake marriages tied to immigration fraud, and the latest CPI numbers showing inflation ticking up just 0.1% in July even as gas prices climb back in August. From there we dig into public assistance fraud enforcement, why the states doing the least to stop it seem to have the most of it, and how fear of being labeled racist keeps some officials from confronting fraud head-on, using Nick Shirley's on-the-ground reporting in Somali immigrant communities as our jumping-off point. Our American Mama, Teri Netterville, tackles cell phone bans for kids beyond the classroom, from little league teams banning phones before games to Louisiana and Florida's in-school bans, and what the research and real-life results are showing about kids reconnecting face-to-face. Our Bright Spot celebrates Karoline Leavitt's tenure as press secretary and the choice she's making to prioritize motherhood, a decision that's anything but a step down. We dig deep into Tuesday's primary results across the country, from the South Carolina Senate runoff to fill Lindsey Graham's seat, to Wisconsin's tight governor's race, to Minnesota's Senate and governor primaries, and what each contest could mean for control of Congress this fall. We also weigh in on an Indiana Fever coach's viral comments about unity and love in the WNBA, and a second Bright Spot on musician Five for Fighting's John Ondrasik publicly defending Boy George after backlash over his song honoring October 7th victims. In our Moment of Whoa, we look at a Massachusetts proposal to create a permanent, taxpayer-funded state commission devoted to one religion, and what that means for equal treatment under the law. And we close with Words of Wisdom on standing up for what's right. May your pursuit of happiness bring you joy.

Then Pags breaks down four major takeaways from primary night, including David Crowley's victory over democratic socialist Francesca Hong in Wisconsin and Michele Tafoya's big win. But things really heat up when Julián and Joaquin Castro are back in the headlines. Pags tears into Julián's latest comments on illegal immigration and issues an open invitation for him to come on the show and debate it. He also reacts to Joaquin Castro's push to end San Antonio's 287(g) cooperation with ICE, asking why anyone assumes Hispanic Americans must automatically oppose immigration enforcement—and why someone's heritage should ever determine their politics. Finally, Todd Blanche announces the arrests and indictments of 11 people accused of running a marriage-fraud scheme involving Chinese nationals and American citizens. Pags has one question after the arrests: What happens to everyone who exploited the scheme now? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
