Donald Trump has been working to expand his presidential influence into places that are supposed to operate independently, like the Bureau of Labor Statistics and the Federal Reserve, and even into Congress's constitutionally appointed “power of the purse.” As Congress returns to Washington, is this nominally co-equal branch of government willing to wrest its power back?

Andrew Card served more than five years as White House Chief of Staff for President George W. Bush. Less than eight months into Bush's first term, Al Qaeda terrorists hijacked four U.S. airliners. Two were flown into each of the twin towers of the World Trade Center. Another was used to crash into the Pentagon. The fourth plane was headed to Washington, but was forced down in a Pennsylvania field by the heroic passengers of United Flight 93.In this edition of Veterans Chronicles, Mr. Card takes us moment by moment as he learned the disasters in New York City were actually deliberate acts of terrorism by Islamic extremists, told the president the news in a Florida elementary school classroom, gave orders to get Air Force One ready to depart early, and figured out where they were going next.He also takes us inside the intense debate he had with the president about whether to return to Washington and the first decisions Bush had to make, including whether to shoot down airliners refusing to obey air traffic commands.Card also discusses President Bush's speech after returning to the White House, his impromptu message to Ground Zero recovery workers on a bullhorn, his emotional meeting with first responders and families of those lost on 9/11 and much more.We'll also hear why Bush asked Card to take one high-ranking national security official "to the woodshed" and the shocking thing British Prime Minister Tony Blair told Card after Bush's speech to a joint session of Congress. And we'll learn how both Bush and Card were scolded after Bush said he wanted Osama bin Laden captured "dead or alive."

//The Wire//2300Z September 2, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: WHITE HOUSE ANNOUNCES DECISION TO DEPLOY TROOPS TO CHICAGO, AS LOCAL OFFICIALS URGE RESISTANCE. KINETIC STRIKE REPORTED IN CARIBBEAN SEA AS US NAVY SINKS SUSPECTED NARCO VESSEL.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Australia: The overall situation remains tense following the continuation of various immigration related issues around the continent. This morning a Bangladeshi man was charged with various offenses for his role in causing a traffic accident which killed two people in New South Wales over the weekend.Analyst Comment: Over the past few weeks, similar atmospherics to what have sprung up in England have also taken root in some places around Australia, with many demonstrations and protests popping up over the past few days. It's tough to say how impactful these demonstrations are, but these types of events do highlight that dissent is growing.France: A high profile shooting took place in Marseilles this morning, following a knife attack that originated from a dispute at a hotel. Local authorities state that a migrant from Tunisia was living at a hotel in the downtown area, but was confronted by hotel staff after failing to pay his bill. This resulted in the man becoming belligerent, producing a knife, and stabbing 4x people at the hotel (including the manager and other staff members). Plain-clothes police from the Anti-Crime Brigade (BAC) responded quickly to the scene, making contact with the man on the street a short distance from the hotel. The man made jihadi comments before attacking the police, which resulted in him being shot and killed. No word yet on the condition of the hotel staff wounded during the attack.Analyst Comment: The assailant was identified as 35-year-old "Abdelkader D", and allegedly had an extensive criminal record. Due to this record, the assailant was already known to police, but nevertheless was given a residency permit valid until 2032. Caribbean: This afternoon the White House announced the kinetic targeting of a vessel suspected of trafficking narcotics. The vessel was engaged and possibly sunk after departing from Venezuela, with no survivors being reported following the strike.Analyst Comment: Beyond the initial announcement, almost zero additional details have been provided. Nevertheless, this targeting is an escalation of the conflict and serves to indicate that kinetic targeting efforts have been authorized. Normally, the standard interdiction tactics have involved the disabling of suspected narco-vessels, which often relies upon using "lethal" weapons to shoot a vessel's engine to render it inoperable. In this case, the White House has so far referred to this incident as a "lethal strike", though without commenting on the type of weapon system used for this engagement. In any case, this targeting effort suggests that the policy has now changed to more of a "shoot first, ask questions later" policy.-HomeFront-Illinois: Tensions continue as the federal involvement in Chicago looms. Over the past few days, the White House has continued to express plans to deploy National Guard forces around the city to combat crime. At one of yesterday's protest events, Mayor Brandon Johnson has called on city residents to "defend" the city when troops arrive.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Most of the rhetoric from Chicago officials is purely posturing. However as the federal deployment of troops comes to fruition, the potential for bad things to happen very quickly always remains a risk. No one can argue that Chicago is a safe city, and even the most anti-Trump demonstrators have to admit that the extreme levels of crime have only gotten worse over the years. On the other hand, there's no guarantee that the city's problems will be solved with the National Guard. And since local politicians and powe

Congress Returns to the Capitol After August Recess; Trump Admin. to Defend Tariffs at Supreme Court | NTD Good MorningLawmakers are returning to Washington this week to tackle important bills on national security as well as on crime and violence in U.S. cities. The Trump administration is working with Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) and Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-La.) to pass a “Comprehensive Crime Bill,” which is expected to address issues like cashless bail and increased police funding. Congress will also have to pass government funding for fiscal year 2026 before the end of September, or else face a government shutdown.The Trump administration is heading to the Supreme Court to defend the sweeping tariffs struck down by a lower court. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says the tariffs are critical to fixing trade deficits and fighting fentanyl, and he's preparing a legal brief to underscore the urgency. White House trade adviser Peter Navarro is calling it the most important economic case in U.S. history. Meanwhile, the administration is also weighing a national housing emergency measure that could ease tariffs on building materials.Trump urged drug companies on Monday to make public the data on COVID vaccines that they've shared with him to clear up uncertainties over the drugs' effectiveness. The president is demanding an answer as, he says, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is "being ripped apart" over the question. Just last week, the CDC director was fired over disagreements on vaccine policy with Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Several officials have also stepped down in protest.
//The Wire//2300Z September 1, 2025////ROUTINE////BLUF: EARTHQUAKE STRIKES AFGHANISTAN. BLACKOUT REPORTED IN VENEZUELA. VEHICLE RAMMING ATTACK CONDUCTED AT RUSSIAN CONSULATE IN AUSTRALIA. PROTESTS CONTINUE IN CHICAGO DURING LABOR DAY CRIME WAVE.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Germany: A 16-year-old Ukrainian refugee was murdered over the weekend, after an illegal immigrant from Iraq pushed her in front of a train in Friedland. The migrant was not arrested at the scene, but after DNA evidence was gathered authorities arrested and placed him in a psychiatric facility where he awaits a decision on whether or not he will be charged for the murder.Analyst Comment: This case is important as the local media immediately tried to paint this story as the girl taking her own life. However, local authorities have confirmed that this is not the case. At the moment it's hard to independently confirm, but some sources claim that the victim was also speaking on the phone with her grandfather at the time of the attack, and remarked that a group of migrants were following her before the call was cut short. If this detail is true, this could be what triggered the investigation in the first place as there are no security cameras at the train station where she was murdered.Afghanistan: This morning an earthquake with an estimated magnitude of 6.0 struck near the border with Pakistan. Hundreds of casualties have been reported, with the hardest-hit regions being the eastern districts of Kunar and Nangarhar.Venezuela: Over the weekend, large-scale blackouts were reported throughout Caracas and several outlying cities. Separately, the tensions between the United States and Venezuela continue, as both sides remain at a heightened state of military readiness throughout the region.Analyst Comment: As the US Navy continues power-projection operations in the area, many have been quick to link the blackouts in Venezuela with the American ships parked off the coast. However, this incident is probably more related to Venezuela's crippled electrical infrastructure, rather than any intervention by the United States. The United States is certainly not above sabotage in Venezuela, so it's certainly possible. However Venezuela has been "rationing" electricity for many years now, which has included the implementation of unplanned (and unannounced) rolling blackouts. This history indicates that if the U.S. were to bomb or sabotage electrical substations in Venezuela, it's doubtful that anyone would notice anything out of the ordinary.Australia: Yesterday a vehicle ramming attack was carried out at the Russian Consulate in Sydney. One unidentified man drove his vehicle up to the Entry Control Point (ECP) for the facility, and after being approached by security personnel, proceeded to ram his vehicle into the gates. The man was arrested at the scene, and one security guard was injured by broken glass while attempting to extract the man from the vehicle. No further details have been provided regarding the motivation for the attack.-HomeFront-Illinois: Throughout Chicago, several anti-Trump demonstrations were held over the weekend, which mostly took the form of opposing the recent anti-crime initiatives posed by the White House. Separately, a few dozen shootings were reported throughout the city over the weekend, which has included approximately 8x murders.Texas: An 11-year-old was shot in Houston after taking part in a growing trend around the United States. The child was shot after allegedly engaging in a game of "ding dong ditch" which prompted the homeowner to engage the suspects, killing one of them.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: As with every event these days, many media sources leave out critical context. For instance, the recent rise of "ding dong ditch" "pranks" around the United States, aren't
In this week's episode of The More Freedom Foundation Podcast, hosts Robert Morris and Ruairi take a hard look at the many layers of Trump's corruption. From shady crypto scams to using the official White House website to push his personal merchandise, Trump consistently blurred the line between public service and private profit.But this isn't just about one man's grift. We dig into the role of short-sighted oligarchs — in the U.S. and abroad — who built the environment that allowed Trump's corruption to thrive. Their greed and willingness to put profit above principle created fertile ground for authoritarianism, and we're still dealing with the consequences today.If you want a clear-eyed breakdown of Trump's corruption and the system that made it possible, this is an episode you won't want to miss.PatreonWebsiteBooksTwitterTikTok
The U.S. Republican party today isn't what it used to be. But the evolution toward President Donald Trump's MAGA-ism began decades ago when William F. Buckley launched a revolution on the American right. As Buckley's official biographer Sam Tanenhaus tells Brian, the late conservative icon was a lot like Trump: a media-savvy wealthy elite who rebelled against the very establishment he came from. In his new book, Buckley: The Life and Revolution That Changed America, Tanenhaus lays out the improbable, fascinating story of the arch-Catholic New Englander who chummed around with hardcore leftists but transformed the GOP into a political powerhouse. In no small part by engaging Republicans in the culture war that eventually put Trump in the White House. (Recorded July 24, 2025) Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Keir Starmer has shaken up his core team in Downing Street today. It's an attempt to grip the agenda, improve the government's messaging and take on Nigel Farage after a difficult first year in office. "Delivery, delivery, delivery" was what the Prime Minister said was the government's priority for the year ahead - but deliver what? There is a debate taking place in the Labour party between those who believe a more progressive case is needed, that you don't beat Farage by apeing his talking points. Others are convinced that it is only by addressing these concerns that you can stop them from splintering off to Reform. Will today's reset get us any closer to revealing which side of that divide the PM is on?Later, what the fevered online speculation about Donald Trump's health this weekend tells us about the White House - has there been a cover up or was it just a campaign by an army of trolls?The News Agents is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal -> https://nordvpn.com/thenewsagents Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee

August 31, 2025; 8am: Donald Trump says some people might like a dictator and declares he has the right to do anything he wants. From saying he would be comfortable if both the former FBI director and CIA director were arrested to ramping up his war on Democratic-led cities, Trump has sparked concerns about authoritarianism. Executive chair of the Democracy Defenders Fund and former White House ethics czar under President Obama, Norm Eisen, former federal prosecutor and MSNBC legal analyst, Joyce Vance, and former DHS Chief of Staff during Donald Trump's first term, Miles Taylor join “The Weekend” to discuss.For more, follow us on social media:Bluesky: @theweekendmsnbc.bsky.socialInstagram: @theweekendmsnbcTikTok: @theweekendmsnbcTo listen to this show and other MSNBC podcasts without ads, sign up for MSNBC Premium on Apple Podcasts.
Jon Herold and Chris Paul kick off Saturday night with laughs before diving into the internet frenzy over Trump's supposed “death” and the viral body double theories that followed. They break down how online ops spin narratives, connecting the scare event to JD Vance's VP interview and Trump's dramatic return with a Truth Social post about White House limestone. From there, the hosts explore the Supreme Court fight over Trump's tariff powers, what it reveals about congressional authority, and how national emergencies expand presidential reach. They also cover Scott Pressler's push for mail-in ballot strategies, Mark Elias' panic over Trump's military role in elections, and Gavin Newsom's warning that Trump might cancel the 2026 midterms. The conversation widens to Palantir, Israeli AI programs like Lavender, and the military's partnership with Silicon Valley execs, raising sharp questions about tech, sovereignty, and the future of elections. With their signature mix of humor, sharp analysis, and rabbit holes, Jon and Chris deliver another deep-dive into politics, power, and the strange narratives shaping our world.

Every single one of us who considers ourselves part of the labor movement has some real deep, serious, and urgent soul searching to do this Labor Day. After already falling to historically low levels of union density, public and private-sector unions are facing an extinction-level event under the new Trump administration. That is not hyperbole; that is a fact. So the real question is: What the hell are workers, unions, and the labor movement doing to fight back? These are the essential questions at the center of both of the interviews we are sharing in this special Labor Day episode, which were recorded at the Netroots conference in New Orleans, LA, in early August. In the first interview, Max speaks with Everett Kelley, national President of the American Federation of Government Employees, about the Trump administration's elimination of collective bargaining rights for federal unions. In the second interview, his first public interview since he was arrested by federal agents observing an ICE raid in Los Angeles in June, David Huerta, president of the Service Employees International Union – United Service Workers (West), speaks with Max about the status of his case and about the roles unions must play in the fight against fascism. Speakers: Everett Kelley is the national President of the American Federation of Government Employees, which is the largest union representing federal and DC government employees. He began his first term of service as national President in February 2020, was elected to another term during the 42nd National Convention in June 2022, and was reelected during the 43rd National Convention in August 2024. Kelley has been a member of AFGE since 1981. He worked at Anniston Army Depot and retired from there after 30 years of service. David Huerta is a longtime labor leader, born and raised in Los Angeles County, CA, who currently serves as president of the Service Employees International Union – United Service Workers (West) (SEIU-USWW).

Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook sues the Trump administration over her firing, calling the mortgage fraud allegations “unsubstantiated” and claiming the real issue is policy disagreements over interest rates. CDC Director Susan Monarez refuses to step down after being asked to resign, prompting the White House to fire her directly and triggering high-profile resignations across the agency. New reporting from the New York Times shows the FBI probe into John Bolton began under Biden and centers on emails tied to his 2020 memoir, complicating claims of Trumpian retribution. California Governor Gavin Newsom sues to block Trump's use of the National Guard in Los Angeles, while simultaneously expanding his own state's anti-crime operations, drawing charges of contradiction. Governor Newsom accuses President Trump of planning to deploy the National Guard to polling places as part of a scheme to block the next election ... a fevered claim made just hours before Newsom himself rolled out new state-led crime suppression operations across California.

Homeless sweeps have become the go-to, bipartisan performance of “doing something” about the U.S. housing crisis — a spectacle embraced by Democrats and Republicans, city halls, and the White House alike. But sweeps are not a solution. They're a way to make homelessness less visible while the crisis deepens.The roots stretch back decades. President Ronald Reagan's Tax Reform Act of 1986 pulled the federal government out of building and maintaining public housing, paving the way for a fragmented patchwork scheme of vouchers and tax credits. The result is the system we live with today — one that does little to stem the tide.Last year, more than 700,000 people were officially counted as homeless, the highest number ever recorded. Nearly 150,000 of them were children. And that number leaves out the “hidden homeless”: families doubling up in cramped apartments or bouncing between motels.“What causes homelessness, in the 1980s as now, is a lack of access to housing that poor and working-class people can afford,” says Brian Goldstone, journalist and author of the new book “There Is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America.”This week on The Intercept Briefing, Goldstone tells host Laura Flynn that the housing emergency is no accident; it's the product of deliberate political choices: “It's an engineered abandonment of not thousands, not hundreds of thousands, but millions of families.”Listen to the full conversation of The Intercept Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.You can support our work at theintercept.com/join.

Before he entered politics, most Americans knew Donald Trump as an entertainer. As the host of the hit show “The Apprentice” he was catapulted to a new level of fame. That persona has carried over to Trump's political life as he embraces his role as entertainer-in-chief. In this term, unlike the first, Trump has taken aim at cultural institutions. He initiated a takeover of the Kennedy Center, has declared that Smithsonian exhibits must submit to White House scrutiny, and he's successfully sued – and won settlements from – multiple broadcasting giants.Throughout Trump's second term, he's dramatically expanded the authority of the executive branch. Now, he's using his power to reshape American culture. For sponsor-free episodes of Consider This, sign up for Consider This+ via Apple Podcasts or at plus.npr.org.

Susan Monarez says she refused to restrict access to vaccines as the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. It wasn't long until Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. decided she needed to go. Monarez's firing led to the resignations of some of the CDC's top scientists. It comes on the heels of President Donald Trump's attempted firing of Lisa Cook, a Federal Reserve governor. Now, Trump's efforts to clamp down on traditionally independent agency officials could have major consequences for the nation's economy and public health.Today on the weekly “Post Reports” politics roundtable, Colby Itkowitz sits down with White House reporter Dan Diamond and political reporter Dan Merica to discuss how the Trump administration's recent moves will be felt by most Americans. Today's show was produced by Arjun Singh and mixed by Rennie Svirnovsky. It was edited by Laura Benshoff. Subscribe to The Washington Post here.
T 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 takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Toxic Empathy Exposed C&B give commentary on the Minneapolis shooting, where the attacker allegedly targeted Christian children and had “Kill Donald Trump” written on the weapon. The hosts argue this reflects a disturbing pattern of violence linked to transgender identity and mental illness, exacerbated by what they call “toxic empathy” and ideological coercion. Mary Margaret Olohan Mary Margaret Olohan, a White House correspondent for The Daily Wire, joins the show to discuss her reporting on Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, who allegedly ignored warnings from Catholic and independent school leaders about threats to faith-based institutions. Despite meetings and requests for increased security funding, Walz took no action—while simultaneously promoting Minnesota as a “trans refuge” and signing legislation supporting gender-affirming care. Media Shields the Trans Shooter Updates on the tragic shooting at Annunciation Church in Minneapolis, where a trans-identifying shooter killed two children and wounded others. They analyze the shooter’s disturbing manifesto, which included anti-Trump messages, racial slurs, and references to past mass shooters. The hosts criticize mainstream media outlets like ABC News and CNN for downplaying the shooter’s motives and prioritizing pronoun correctness over truth, highlighting how legacy media shields Democrats from accountability. Virginia Lieutenant Governor Winsome Sears The hour features a powerful interview with Virginia Lieutenant Governor Winsome Sears, who outlines her campaign for governor. Sears touts Virginia’s economic success under Republican leadership—over 276,000 new jobs, a $10 billion surplus, and reduced regulations—and warns against her opponent Abigail Spanberger’s support for trans athletes in women’s sports, defunding police, and radical school policies. Sears calls for common-sense governance, parental rights, and law enforcement support. Emotional Blackmail Clay and Buck also explore the broader cultural impact of identity politics, arguing that the LGBTQ+ movement has been hijacked by trans activism. They urge gay Americans to speak out against radical gender ideology and reclaim their distinct identity. Listener emails and calls reinforce this message, including a heartfelt story from a mother whose son transitioned at 17, sparking a discussion on emotional blackmail, psychiatric influence, and family trauma.
