And what responsibility do journalists have in the face of political pressure, disinformation, and the nonstop spin cycle? It’s a sharp, candid conversation about the media, the message, and the moment we’re in. This episode is brought to you by ZBiotics.

He has suggested he could send troops into other Democratic-led cities in a full-on authoritarian flex to control places that don’t support him. Constitutional? Not really. Dangerous? Absolutely. Let's break it all down, because if this is the new “law and order,” we should all be very concerned. This episode is brought to you by Brickhouse Whey Protein.

The Epstein scandal just keeps getting messier. Now Trump’s decided the best way to handle victims speaking out is to brand them all as “Democrats,” because apparently, that’s his magic eraser for any inconvenient truth. Meanwhile, the feud you didn’t have on your 2025 bingo card is heating up: Melania Trump vs. Hunter Biden. The spark? Hunter’s claims about Melania’s past ties to Epstein. It’s petty, it’s spicy, and it’s unfolding in real time. Grab your coffee, this morning’s tea is piping hot. This episode is brought to you by Brickhouse Whey Protein.
