Trump Ruins Everything (feat. Chandra Taylor-Sawyer)

Tuesday, June 9th, 2026

Today, Donald Trump has formally nominated his personal lawyer Todd Blanche to be the Attorney General; the IRS failed to match taxpayer records with ICE data accurately; a federal judge has blocked Donald’s $100,000 visa fee; the lawsuit to stop the UFC fight at the White House has been assigned to Judge Amit Mehta; Mayor Mamdani adds a free Bryant Park watch party for the Knicks after Trump’s visit forces the cancellation of them around Madison Square Garden; Skagit County courts limit Zoom hearings for vulnerable community members in Washington state; Andry Hernández Romero - the gay stylist sent to CECOT prison - is rebuilding his life in Spain; and Allison and Dana deliver your Good News.
