He shares this week's poll results and a viral breakdown of mosques per capita by state, part of a broader discussion on immigration policy toward Muslim-majority countries.

Aaron McIntire covers a second straight record month for ICE, with DHS reporting 51,000 arrests in July, and weighs whether the timing is a response to Secretary Markwayne Mullin's rocky weekend. He covers new DOJ fraud charges against 19 people accused of scamming Pennsylvania's Medicaid program out of more than $4 million. Aaron highlights resurfaced comments from Wisconsin gubernatorial frontrunner Francesca Hong on her own biracial son and proximity to whiteness, plus Senator Chuck Schumer's defense of the Democratic Socialists of America's rising influence in the party. He praises world number one tennis player Aryna Sabalenka for her full-throated support of the WTA's new sex testing policy, and covers a bystander's account of stopping an armed gunman at an Idaho Falls In-N-Out. Aaron closes Aaronalysis explaining why fraud recovery efforts mean little unless the clawed-back money is actually cut from federal budgets rather than reallocated.

Aaron McIntire breaks down why he thinks President Trump is setting up a rough midterm environment for Republicans, pointing to repetitive Iran talking points and Trump's public criticism of DC US Attorney Jeanine Pirro over a dropped vandalism case. He covers growing Republican Senate support for Todd Blanche's Attorney General nomination after a deal to end the anti-weaponization fund. Aaron also covers New York City's new city-run grocery store ID requirements under Mayor Zohran Mamdani, and NFL quarterback Aaron Rodgers mocking Dr. Anthony Fauci's Fifth Amendment pleas at Steelers training camp.

Aaron closes with an encouraging health update from Conduit Clothing Company's Evan Ghen on his cancer treatment.

Aaron McIntire covers backlash toward DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin after he told Democrat governors at the National Governors Association meeting that ICE will focus on the worst offenders rather than mass deportations, a stance Aaron says falls short of Trump's campaign promise. He contrasts that with new numbers claiming over 1.4 million forced removals over the past year, and covers 14 Republican senators calling to cancel the August recess until the SAVE America Act passes. Aaron notes President Trump's latest claim that a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and denuclearize Iran is imminent. He covers the escalating fight in women's sports after Minnesota Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve wore a Trans Kids Belong shirt in response to Sophie Cunningham's comments, plus a financial settlement for pro-life activist Paul Vaughn over his Biden-era FBI raid. Aaron closes with HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s combative CNN interview with Dana Bash on vaccine hesitancy.

Aaron McIntire breaks down Dr. Anthony Fauci's combative Senate Homeland Security Committee hearing, where he invoked his Fifth Amendment rights 111 times rather than answer questions from Senator Rand Paul's panel. He plays fiery exchanges from Senators Bernie Moreno and Josh Hawley, including the moment Fauci's attorney was escorted out of the room for repeatedly disrupting proceedings. Aaron notes Rand Paul's announcement that the Senate committee will vote next week on holding Fauci in contempt of Congress, despite the preemptive pardon he received from former President Biden. He also shares this week's poll results, where a majority of listeners say the hearing hasn't changed their expectations that Fauci will ultimately face no real consequences.

Aaron McIntire covers newly released audio recordings of Joe Biden from his 2017 memoir sessions, which appear to support Special Counsel Robert Hur's findings on Biden's handling of classified material after leaving office. He covers Senate Majority Leader John Thune telling Sean Hannity the SAVE America Act remains stalled without enough Republican votes to touch the filibuster. Aaron also covers President Trump's fresh comments on the ongoing Fauci diary revelations, and HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s claim that Fauci suffered an undisclosed vaccine related health event in 2021. He touches on Vice President JD Vance's eulogy for the late Senator Lindsey Graham, a viral rescue by a teenage California lifeguard earning a White House invitation, and a new whistleblower scandal involving California gubernatorial candidate Xavier Becerra's tenure at HHS. Aaron closes with his own theory connecting COVID-era institutional distrust to the rise of Candace Owens's conspiracy-driven following.

Aaron McIntire digs deeper into Dr. Anthony Fauci's diary, including entries where Fauci claims credit for convincing New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio and California Governor Gavin Newsom's chief of staff Ann O'Leary to shut down schools, bars, and restaurants in 2020, despite later denying he pushed for closures. He notes Senator Mitch McConnell's latest proof of life photo after a two week public silence. Aaron questions whether it's time to stop covering Trump's repeated claims of an Iran military victory after finding an April clip nearly identical to Monday's comments. He reacts to New York City's new city-run grocery store price caps under Mayor Zohran Mamdani. Aaron also revisits a corrected Catholic clergy survey from researcher Ryan Burge, showing 27% of priests, not the earlier reported 47%, agree all religions are equally true, and plays former FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb's uncomfortable response when pressed about his past defense of Fauci.

Aaron McIntire digs into newly released pages from Dr. Anthony Fauci's personal diary, revealing early private concerns among top virologists about a possible lab origin for COVID-19 that Fauci later downplayed in public. He notes Senator Mitch McConnell's continued silence about his hospitalization, two weeks after his office first confirmed it. Aaron covers Massachusetts lawmakers advancing a bill removing nearly all remaining abortion restrictions, and the guilty verdict against Minnesota's Shiloh Hendrix in her racial slur case. He also reports on the deadly Islamist terror attack at Berlin's Pride festival, and President Trump's roast of the media at the rescheduled White House Correspondents' Dinner. Aaron closes out the show debuting his own invention, the Soup-o-meter.

Aaron McIntire dives into the wonderful world of women's athletics, starting with WNBA star Sophie Cunningham standing firm on protecting female sports from male competitors despite backlash, and Megan Rapinoe's sharp rebuttal on The View. He covers the firestorm around USA Today columnist Nancy Armour's column linking Caitlin Clark's on-court flopping to the 1955 lynching of Emmett Till. Aaron also touches on Secretary of State Marco Rubio's update on Iran's overtures for a deal, a Washington congressional candidate's admission she downplays LGBTQ support to avoid alienating Muslim voters, and Mike Lindell's controversial immigration proposal in the Minnesota governor's race. He closes out the week with a full Ask Or Tell Me Anything, covering AI in education, agentic AI risks, and listener questions on faith and current events.

Aaron McIntire covers President Trump's campaign stop in Georgia, where he doubled down on branding the Democratic Party as communist and criticized Senate Republicans for stalling the SAVE America Act. He digs into a lopsided House vote in which 198 Democrats opposed a bill banning congressional stock trading, and a narrow NDAA vote where four House Republicans broke ranks on a transgender military service amendment. Aaron also covers the tragic St. Paul, Minnesota shooting in which Tsegaab Binessu allegedly killed three apartment leasing staff, Nansi Fuentes Zambrano, Dena Silcox, and Adam Wilwerding, in a rampage sparked by a parking contract dispute. He highlights Congressman Brandon Gill's pointed questioning of the American Bar Association's president about the organization's stance on implicit bias. Aaron closes out the week's poll results, where listeners overwhelmingly picked securing voter rolls as the administration's top midterm priority.

Aaron McIntire breaks down Secretary of War Pete Hegseth's congressional testimony defending his record and America's more targeted approach to the Iran war, plus the Pentagon's identification of Sergeant Michael Emmanuel Swinton, killed in a drone incident at Erbil Air Base in Iraq. He covers a twice-deported illegal immigrant, Brandon Ortiz-Vite, now suing President Trump for $75 million and citizenship after being convicted of murdering Michigan's Ruby Garcia. Aaron digs into fresh ICE deportation numbers for the fiscal year, and reacts to New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill's admission that a software error registered thousands of noncitizens to vote in her state. He also covers Congressman Brandon Gill's viral grilling of a Smithsonian museum director over a document tying politeness to white supremacy. Aaron closes with journalist Andy Ngo's breakdown of how decentralized and difficult to track Antifa networks really are.

Aaron McIntire covers the U.S. military's response after Iranian strikes on a base in Jordan left two American service members dead and one missing, plus new Iranian attacks on Kuwait, Bahrain, and Jordan over the weekend. He digs into a $60 billion wave of U.S. business deals with Iraq aimed at building alternative oil shipping routes around the Strait of Hormuz. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz continues defending his pardon of a convicted child rapist, and Aaron reacts to Tom Homan's compromise plan requiring ICE agents to wear body cameras within two months. He also covers a viral Olive Garden customer service exchange over its Never Ending Pasta Pass ID policy, and a widely mocked answer from Maine Senate candidate Ashley Webb about her qualifications for office. Aaron closes by highlighting Bill Maher and Senator John Fetterman's blunt criticism of their own party's drift toward figures like streamer Hasan Piker.

Aaron McIntire breaks down President Trump's primetime Oval Office address alleging that China illicitly obtained 220 million U.S. voter files starting in the 2020 election cycle, and his renewed push for the SAVE America Act. He covers Secretary of State Marco Rubio convening leaders from more than 60 countries, alongside fiery remarks from Stephen Miller and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, to combat what the administration calls left-wing political terrorism. Aaron also reacts to a New York Post report, based on anonymous sources and denied as gossip by the senator himself, alleging Arizona Senator Ruben Gallego had past relationships with House staffers. He touches on new religious retention data and a viral video of a kid nailing an array of bird calls before opening up this week's Ask Or Tell Me Anything for Patreon supporters and listeners.

Aaron McIntire covers President Trump reversing ICE's brief pause on vehicle stops just a day after it began, restoring one of the agency's main tools for deportations. He digs into Vice President JD Vance's appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience, where Vance admits the administration mishandled the rollout of the Epstein files and pushes back on Attorney General Pam Bondi's earlier claims. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche takes a victory lap on fraud recoveries during his confirmation hearing, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent confirms the nation's gold reserves at Fort Knox remain fully accounted for. Aaron also covers Helen Comperatore, widow of Butler rally victim Corey Comperatore, sharing her personal belief that the assassination attempt was an inside job, though no evidence has been publicly confirmed. He wraps up the week's Daylight Saving Time poll results and the uncertain fate of the Sunshine Protection Act in the Senate.

Aaron McIntire covers ICE's decision to pause most vehicle stops in immigration enforcement operations nationwide after fatal shootings in Texas and Maine, and questions whether it counts as backing down. He breaks down the rare congressional testimony of Supreme Court Justices Amy Coney Barrett and Elena Kagan, who are asking for more security funding after swatting and threat incidents. Senator Chuck Grassley reveals that former special counsel Jack Smith's team secretly accessed the private text messages of 44 lawmakers during the Trump investigations. Aaron also reacts to a viral confrontation between a journalist and Senator Thom Tillis over his vote against the SAVE America Act. He closes with lighter stories on a health investigation into a possible Taco Bell link to a parasite outbreak and a Canadian surrogacy lawsuit making headlines.

Aaron McIntire covers President Trump formally notifying Congress that the United States is back at war with Iran, promising more strikes after a third wave of attacks near the Strait of Hormuz. He digs into reports that Iran's former hardline president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has been placed under house arrest over alleged contacts with Israel's Mossad. Back home, South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster names the late Senator Lindsey Graham's sister, Darline Graham Nordone, to serve out his term, and Aaron reacts to Senator Elissa Slotkin's candid comments on the SAVE Act. He also covers Governor Gavin Newsom's complaints about California's building system, new Census data showing women over 40 now outpacing teenagers in birth rates, and a Colorado woman's fight to clear her name after Flock license plate cameras wrongly tied her to a crime.

Aaron McIntire covers the sudden death of South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham at age 71, including President Trump's account of what may have been Graham's final phone call. He breaks down the third wave of U.S. strikes on Iran near the Strait of Hormuz after an Iranian attack on a container ship, and what it could mean for the ceasefire going forward. Secretary of State Marco Rubio's deportation of a Laotian man convicted of child sexual abuse, whom Minnesota Governor Tim Walz had pardoned, gets highlighted as an example of the administration's messaging on immigration. Aaron also reacts to a harrowing bison attack video out of Yellowstone National Park and a Brown University cheating scandal involving students using AI to ace a take-home exam. He closes with Aaronalysis, reflecting on Graham's complicated legacy and the reminder that no one knows how much time they have left.

Aaron McIntire breaks down day four of the Tyler Robinson preliminary hearing, including courtroom testimony from Robinson's former roommate Lance Twiggs describing his reaction after the Charlie Kirk assassination. Megyn Kelly's blunt message to lingering conspiracy theorists gets called out for its timing, and Aaron doesn't hold back on her recent shift. Reports out of Iran point to fresh explosions and strikes, with U.S. and Israeli officials denying involvement and the source still unclear. Vice President JD Vance hits Democrats over their priorities on fraud and immigration, and LA mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt lays out his case for irregularities in the city's vote count. It's Friday, so Aaron closes with AOTMA, answering listener questions on faith, media, the addictive design of social platforms, and how the post World War II consensus shaped today's debates over culture and borders.

A.M. Update, Aaron McIntire, Tyler Robinson, Charlie Kirk, Lance Twiggs, Megyn Kelly, Tyler Robinson hearing, Judge Tony Graf, Spencer Pratt, Nithya Raman, LA mayor race, election fraud, JD Vance, Iran strikes, AOTMA, Ask Or Tell Me Anything, today's news, morning news, news commentary, current events, daily news podcast

Graham Platner, Iran's Air Force One threat, Tyler Robinson's hearing, and the European customs poll headline today's A.M. Update. Graham Platner suspends his Maine Senate campaign in an 11-minute video still denying Jenny Racicot's rape allegation, and Aaron says the ink did not stick on this one. Iran threatens to shoot missiles toward Turkey in the vicinity of Trump, forcing operational security changes to Air Force One on the way home from the NATO summit, and Trump quips to a reporter "if I go, you go" — Aaron says frustrated as he sometimes gets, the man is genuinely funny. Day three of Tyler Robinson's preliminary hearing brings the Kirk family attorney to the stand to ask Judge Tony Graf to keep all evidence in the case public in real time, arguing that transparency is the only antidote to the doubt and disinformation that has been swirling, and Donald Trump Jr. tells Fox News the prosecution's case looks overwhelming and the defense's only real tactic was trying to keep evidence out. Aaron closes with the poll of the week results on which European custom Americans would most like to adopt, with smarmy arrogance winning at 74.7%, and a spirited exchange with listener Robert who tried to take the European customs bit in a theological direction.

Jenny Racicot, Tyler Robinson's hearing, Iran, Marine Le Pen, and Pastor Ezra Jin headline today's A.M. Update. Jenny Racicot tells CNN's Jake Tapper that Maine Democratic Senate nominee Graham Platner entered her home uninvited in 2021 while heavily intoxicated and forced himself on her, and when Tapper asks directly if she considers it rape she says "by definition, yes, absolutely" — even Zohran Mamdani says Platner should drop out. Day two of Tyler Robinson's preliminary hearing shows surveillance footage of Robinson on the Utah Valley campus four times on the day of the shooting, including footage where his leg does not bend going up stairs in a way that suggests a rifle hidden in his pants leg. Iran strikes tankers in the Strait of Hormuz again and Trump responds by revoking the oil sales license, WTI crude jumps 5%, and Trump heads to Ankara for NATO where he again puts European allies on notice. Toyota announces a $3.6 billion investment to move Tacoma production from Mexico to San Antonio, Marine Le Pen's conviction appeal is upheld but her ban on public office is reduced to time served and she immediately announces she is running for French president anyway, and Pastor Ezra Jin Mingri of Beijing's Zion Church arrives in Los Angeles on July 4th after Trump personally raised his case with Xi Jinping. Aaron closes with JD Vance's Nixon rehabilitation speech at the Richard Nixon Foundation and the uncomfortable question it raises about whether our news addiction has simply made Watergate look small by comparison.

Tyler Robinson's preliminary hearing, Karoline Leavitt's viral Gen Z gaffe, Trump Accounts, and Aaronalysis headline today's A.M. Update. The preliminary hearing for Tyler Robinson kicks off in Utah with surveillance footage showing Robinson on the Utah Valley University campus four times before, during, and after the shooting, while Blake Neff reports that TPUSA's Terrell Farnsworth, who faced months of harassment from the Candace Owens crowd, was actually helping prosecutors all along. Karoline Leavitt tells Jesse Watters that Gen Z has been raised with silver spoons in their mouths, and Aaron says even with the out-of-context caveat that is a let-them-eat-cake moment the White House cannot afford. Trump rings the NYSE and Nasdaq opening bells from the Oval Office to mark the live launch of Trump Accounts, joined by Ted Cruz, Scott Bessent, and Michael and Susan Dell whose $6.25 billion pledge seeds $250 accounts for up to 25 million children under 10, and Aaron calls it a potential test run for eventually replacing Social Security.

Trump's 250th anniversary address, Mitch McConnell's hospitalization, the filibuster fight, and a German World Cup fan named Sebastian headline today's A.M. Update. Trump uses the nation's 250th birthday celebrations to deliver what Aaron calls a fitting reset, taking direct aim at American Marxism at Mount Rushmore and again on the National Mall, saying you cannot be a communist and a patriot and that American liberty has never survived merely because of words on paper. Newly released EMS dispatch audio confirms Mitch McConnell was found unconscious at his DC home on June 14th, CPR was performed for cardiac arrest, and he has been hospitalized ever since, while JD Vance says Republicans who cling to the filibuster are unilaterally surrendering a weapon Democrats have openly promised to use the moment they regain power. AOC corners JD Vance on the Capitol steps and Aaron says she walked away with nothing. A German soccer fan named Sebastian Kraut came to America afraid of shootings and criminals and left moved to tears by the kindness of strangers in Boston of all places, and Aaron uses the story to close with something personal: the background noise you hear is three fans and a dehumidifier running in his flooded basement, another trial in a long string of them, and the lesson he's landing on is not what God is teaching him but simply to keep trusting and not doom.

Birthright citizenship, Jessica Gorman, gas prices, and the Patreon launch headline today's A.M. Update. The Supreme Court upholds birthright citizenship 6-3, overturning Trump's executive order, and Aaron says he spent a day furious about it before landing on a silver lining: it was one or two votes from going the other way, which was unthinkable ten years ago. The same SCOTUS session also upholds state bans on biological males in female athletics, with Justice Clarence Thomas writing in his concurrence that men with gender dysphoria are not women and using language to obscure that reality is lying to the public. Stephen Miller goes on Fox to call out Amy Coney Barrett and John Roberts for caving to the left, and Aaron says the urgency right now has to be mass deportations, not waiting for the next ruling. Jessica Gorman, the mother of Sheridan Gorman, the 18-year-old Loyola University freshman shot and killed by a Venezuelan national in Chicago, delivers gut-wrenching testimony before the House Judiciary Committee and Aaron says he got chills. Trump and Scott Bessent both pressure gas stations to stop gouging consumers as WTI crude sits under $70 a barrel, and Aaron says the math on how fast prices go up versus how slowly they come down is pretty damning. Aaron closes with a framework for how to have an honest adult conversation about Israel, announces The A.M. Update's new Patreon at patreon.com/theAMupdate, and teases tomorrow's exclusive subscriber episode: what the A.M. Update would have sounded like on July 4th, 1776.

Trump v. Slaughter, the ballot-counting ruling, Chatrie v. United States, and Paris's heat wave blame game headline today's A.M. Update. The Supreme Court rules 5-4 that Trump can fire FTC commissioners at will, overturning 90 years of precedent protecting independent agencies, and Aaron says law professor Barb McQuade's outraged summary is basically his favorite part of the ruling. In the same session, the Court rules 5-4 that states can count mail-in ballots after election day if procedures are in place, Trump immediately calls it a tremendous loss and redoubles his push for the SAVE America Act, and Aaron says Senate Republicans need to feel more pressure than they currently do. The geofence warrant case Chatrie v. United States results in a 6-3 ruling that location data from Google counts as a Fourth Amendment search, Colorado's Supreme Court unanimously blocks a Democrat redistricting map that would have flipped three House seats, and inmates briefly seize control of a North Carolina jail before law enforcement retakes it. A JetBlue flight reports a drone strike at 3,000 feet over JFK, Aaron does the math on whether any consumer drone can actually reach that altitude, and Paris Deputy Mayor Audrey Pulvar blames American air conditioners for Europe's deadly heat wave — Aaron calls all of Europe losers for letting their politicians get away with it and tells them to demand better. Aaron closes with the Iraq anti-corruption arrests, the US-Israel-Lebanon trilateral framework, and a theory on whether Iranian proxies are quietly being dismantled, before making a full endorsement of an unnamed man in black who shot BB guns at nude cyclists in Los Angeles.

Iran ceasefire violations, JD Vance on Bill Maher, the Venezuela earthquake, and Mike Johnson's DSA warning headline today's A.M. Update. The US strikes Iranian missile sites again after Iran fires on oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, JD Vance tells Bill Maher Iran's nuclear program is functionally destroyed even without full inspections, and Aaron says nobody with a working brain is surprised Iran broke the truce. Venezuela's earthquake death toll climbs past 1,450 as rescue crews race against time, the Supreme Court allows the Trump administration to end temporary protected status for Haitian and Syrian nationals, and Ohio Governor Mike DeWine pushes back on CNN. Pete Buttigieg claims a politically motivated false CPS report targeted his family, and Aaron says the story doesn't add up either way. House Speaker Mike Johnson delivers a pointed warning about a wave of DSA-backed congressional candidates nationwide, reading directly from the Democratic Socialists of America's own platform, and Aaron lays out his theory that the fusion of Marxism and Islamism is functioning as a unifying anti-Christian ideology for the secular left. California State Senator Scott Wiener gets cursed out and driven off the stage at San Francisco's Trans March for not being radical enough, and Aaron uses the moment to revisit Wiener's legislative record, which he argues should disqualify him from being held up as any kind of moral or political role model. Aaron closes by calling out fringe online voices on the right who've descended into antisemitic conspiracy theory, saying that brand of "horseshoe theory" rot is squandering a real political opportunity.

Trump and Senate GOP, NATO's Mark Rutte, Zohran Mamdani's primary sweep, and Grand Theft Auto 6 headline today's A.M. Update. Outgoing Louisiana Senator Bill Cassidy reportedly gets into a shouting match with Trump at a Senate GOP lunch just weeks after losing his primary by a historic margin, and Aaron says picking that fight on his way out the door makes no sense. Trump also announces he won't sign the bipartisan housing bill until the Senate passes the SAVE America Act, even though it already cleared Congress with supermajorities, and takes a swipe at NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte over gas prices not falling fast enough at the pump. All three of Zohran Mamdani's endorsed candidates sweep their New York primaries, including a Democratic Socialist who knocked off a five-term incumbent, and Aaron lays out his theory for why the combination of Islamism and Marxism is proving so potent with young, secular voters. Grand Theft Auto 6 opens pre-orders for its November launch, and Aaron does the math on its reported $2 billion budget, more than it cost to build the Burj Khalifa, and questions whether that much talent and money going into a video game says something about misplaced priorities. Aaron closes the week with the poll of the week results on who's actually following the World Cup.

Trump's Pennsylvania speech, the Supreme Court, Todd Blanche's fraud sweep, and John C. Reilly headline today's A.M. Update. Trump sounds energized at a Pennsylvania factory speech focused almost entirely on cost of living and border security, briefly noting gas prices are down 60 cents a gallon, while Marco Rubio reaffirms no country can charge tolls on the Strait of Hormuz and crude oil drifts back toward $73 a barrel. The Supreme Court rules 6-3 that DHS can strip green card holders of legal status if they travel abroad while facing pending criminal charges, while two separate district judges, Amy Berman Jackson and Sparkle Sooknanan, block other Trump administration policies on SNAP benefits and a federal citizenship verification database. Acting AG Todd Blanche announces 455 healthcare fraud defendants charged since June 8th totaling $6.5 billion in false claims, and acting DNI Bill Pulte reportedly begins mass layoffs of Tulsi Gabbard-aligned staff. Actor John C. Reilly calls empathy a superpower and the cornerstone of civilization in a podcast clip, and Aaron picks the argument apart point by point, asking why that empathy never seems to extend to people like the Colorado baker who's been in court for over a decade.

Iran negotiations, Keir Starmer's resignation, Jennifer Honka, and Jeremy Clarkson headline today's A.M. Update. JD Vance says talks in Switzerland accomplished four key goals: keeping the Strait of Hormuz open, building a de-confliction mechanism for the regional ceasefire, securing UN nuclear inspections, and establishing a direct communication line with Iran, while Scott Bessent confirms a 60-day licensing window for Iranian oil sales and Trump says crude is flowing at record volumes through the Strait. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer announces his resignation, making him the seventh British PM in ten years, and Aaron ties the chaos directly to the country's collapsing Christian foundation, where only 6% of adults now identify as practicing Christians. A sixth suspect, Jordan W. Rinker, is publicly identified in the foiled drone and sniper plot against the UFC Freedom 250 event. A Denver Public Schools teacher named Jennifer Honka is fired after an administrative law judge finds she graded students on same-sex kissing skits in French class, and Aaron asks what kind of worldview produces an adult who thinks that's a reasonable lesson plan. Aaron closes with Jeremy Clarkson's cancer remission news and a deep dive into Clarkson's Farm, using a healthy pregnant cow killed over an inconclusive tuberculosis test as a window into Britain's broader collapse into bureaucratic self-worship.

Iran's Strait closure, the Fauci files, JD Vance in Switzerland, and a forfeited pride night headline today's A.M. Update. Iran announces another closure of the Strait of Hormuz over the weekend, citing continued fighting in southern Lebanon, even as JD Vance meets face to face with Iranian officials including President Masoud Pezeshkian's delegation in Switzerland to hammer out the technical details of last week's memorandum of understanding. Trump tells Axios that Netanyahu owes his job to Trump's restraint and admits he has to keep him "a little bit sane," and Aaron prays for fewer casualties as the whole situation continues to look messy. Outgoing DNI Tulsi Gabbard releases a trove of documents showing Dr. Anthony Fauci briefed CIA officials in 2021 on Wuhan gain-of-function research weeks after denying funding it under oath, and says she believes a path to prosecution still exists despite his Biden-era pardon. Pennsylvania's York Revolution forfeits its own pride night game and throws several of its players under the bus in a public statement after they refused to wear rainbow-themed jerseys, a story Aaron says is even better than last week's Giants scripture-hat saga. JD Vance also goes deep on the abolitionist versus incrementalist divide inside the pro-life movement on Allie Beth Stuckey's podcast, and Aaron closes with the rabbit hole he fell into this weekend chasing a mysterious tower on the Iowa horizon: a Cold War-era AT&T Long Lines microwave relay station.

It's AOTMA Friday on The A.M. Update. Aaron answers listener questions on faith, current events, and sports, including a viral Congressional Baseball Game catch, a closely watched abortion bill overseas, and an update on the show's ongoing podcast distribution issues.

Iran MOU, Kevin Warsh, B-52 victims, James Talarico, and John Kennedy headline today's A.M. Update. The 14-point Iran memorandum of understanding leaked via CNN and corroborated widely, and Aaron says the detractors were largely right — it reads like capitulation, though he pushes back hard on critics who can't answer what they actually wanted instead, and closes with a drill-baby-drill silver lining: WTI oil at $75 a barrel could mean $2.50 gas by Labor Day. Kevin Warsh chairs his first Fed meeting, holds rates for the fourth straight time, but nine members signal a rate hike is coming, markets sell off, and Trump says it keeps the country down before adding he's guided by his guy. Edwards Air Force Base releases the names of all eight men killed in Monday's B-52 Stratofortress crash: Col. Gregory Watson, Lt. Col. Gabriel Estrella, retired Lt. Col. Miles Middleton, Maj. Alexander Davis, Maj. Robert Dee, Maj. Brad Hovey, Jeromy Smith, and Christopher Rischar. Radiological materials including uranium and thorium samples are found stashed in a locked cabinet at San Francisco's Hunters Point Naval Shipyard by a rogue employee of Navy subcontractor RSI Antec. John Kennedy takes a shot at JD Vance's mother in a one-liner about the Iran deal, James Talarico surfaces old footage praising a radical anti-fossil fuel group called Third Act as the most important work in Texas, and an ICE officer in Pasco County dives fully clothed into a community pool to save an unconscious child.

Tyson Proper, Heidi Beirich, JD Vance, Brendan Sorsby, and Hillary Clinton headline today's A.M. Update. The FBI disrupts a multi-state terror plot targeting the White House UFC event, arresting five people in Ohio, Missouri, Nebraska, and California after 19-year-old Tyson Proper admitted to planning drone-delivered explosive attacks with stage snipers, with Republican senators including Marsha Blackburn and Shelley Moore Capito named as targets. A DOJ superseding indictment identifies former SPLC Intelligence Project director Heidi Beirich as the official who allegedly funneled $1.2 million in donor money to her neo-Nazi informant lover, the same organization Aaron has been covering for weeks that refuses to remove TPUSA from its hate map. Fifteen Minnesota protesters face federal charges for using vehicles and blocks of ice to obstruct ICE operations. JD Vance goes on The View, rejects a vague Emmett Till premise by simply asking what specifically she is talking about, then flips the immigration inhumanity argument by pointing to tens of thousands of children sex trafficked under the previous administration. Brendan Sorsby folds under a Big 12 federal lawsuit and opts for the NFL supplemental draft, Hillary Clinton adds Joe Biden to her list of people she regrets, Trump promises to read the Iran MOU verbatim at a press conference, and a Chicago college student admits he built and burned his own cross in Grant Park to protest Trump.

Iran deal terms, Keir Starmer, Mauricio Ruffy, B-52 crash, and Gavin Newsom headline today's A.M. Update. Trump says the full Iran deal text drops after Friday's signing ceremony in Switzerland, and Andrew Colvet of TPUSA reports from an admin briefing that the framework is basically if Iran acts like a normal country it gets treated like one, though the nuclear enrichment details are still unresolved. A B-52 Stratofortress crashes shortly after takeoff from Edwards Air Force Base in California's Mojave Desert, and an FA-18 Hornet from MCAS Miramar goes down off the Washington coast during routine training, with the pilot ejecting safely. Gavin Newsom claims the DOJ is investigating him because he is considering a presidential run, and Aaron says he finds it very rich coming from that party specifically. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer proposes banning social media for all children under 16, and Aaron agrees with the stated goal while pointing out that the real mechanism, mandatory adult digital ID verification, tells you what this is actually about. Mauricio Ruffy knocks out Michael Chandler in the first round at UFC Freedom 250 on the White House South Lawn, then quotes John 3:16 to the crowd and proposes to his girlfriend. Aaron closes with a viral X post listing everything that has gone right under Trump that doomers are ignoring, and a challenge to level your perspective before you despair.

Iran deal, Niño Guerrero, New York Knicks riots, Elon Musk, and Freddie from Germany headline today's A.M. Update. Trump posts on Truth Social that a deal with Iran is complete and the Strait of Hormuz is open, but Aaron recorded much of this episode before that post dropped — and his pre-deal analysis still stands, because nobody has seen the text, the Middle East is calling it a capitulation, and Aaron says pump the brakes either way. Tren de Aragua leader Héctor Rusthenford Guerrero Flores, known as Niño Guerrero, is killed in a U.S. military strike that Trump announced Friday with video. New York Knicks fans torch five school buses, injure ten NYPD officers, and shoot one person celebrating the NBA championship, and Aaron notes that PSG fans set the bar and New York said hold my degeneracy. Elon Musk becomes the world's first trillionaire after SpaceX's $75 billion IPO, AOC calls him unintelligent, Ro Khanna wants a 5% wealth tax that Aaron's math shows wouldn't cover half of one year of bachelor's degree tuition. Aaron closes with Aaronalysis on Freddie from Germany, the X account that went from thousands to half a million followers by driving through the American South for the World Cup and being blown away by Buc-ee's, Bass Pro Shops, stranger hospitality, and the Gulf Coast at sunset.

Trump's oil revelation, ActBlue fraud, Róis-Máire Donnelly, Albert Mohler, and Jensen Huang headline today's A.M. Update. Trump drops a bombshell at a White House signing ceremony, revealing the U.S. military has been secretly siphoning millions of barrels of Iranian oil through the Strait of Hormuz every night — which is why prices are at $85 to $90 a barrel instead of $250, and why his "I love inflation" soundbite is going to be played on a loop. ActBlue CEO Regina Wallace-Jones pleads the fifth when Congressman Jim Jordan asks her point blank whether ActBlue has watered down its fraud standards to benefit Democrats, and Aaron says that answer tells you everything. New Belfast Lord Mayor Róis-Máire Donnelly, a Sinn Féin councillor who took office June 1st preaching diversity and inclusion, is now presiding over a city where mobs are burning buses and police cars in response to a Sudanese migrant's attempted beheading of a local man. Albert Mohler's male-pastor-only amendment to the Southern Baptist Convention constitution passes its first required two-thirds vote at 76%, and Aaron calls it the SBC course-correcting back toward orthodoxy. Aaron closes with Jensen Huang's task-versus-purpose argument for why AI elevates jobs rather than eliminating them, and the poll of the week results on who has done the most damage to college sports.

Karmelo Anthony, Decarlos Brown Jr., Bryan Fair, Zohran Mamdani, and the Gallup morality poll headline today's A.M. Update. Karmelo Anthony is found guilty of murder in the stabbing death of Austin Metcalf at a Frisco ISD track meet, with a jury deliberating less than three hours including their lunch break, and Aaron says justice has been served. Iran shoots down a U.S. Army AH-64 Apache helicopter over the Strait of Hormuz during what is supposed to be a ceasefire, Trump posts that the U.S. must respond, then tells the Wall Street Journal it was not a big deal — and Aaron says the whole thing just drips weakness. Interim SPLC CEO Bryan Fair appears before Congress and refuses to take TPUSA off the hate map even after Charlie Kirk was murdered, while Congressman Brandon Gill forces him to admit the SPLC's own reference materials call Graham Platner's tattoo a racist skinhead symbol. A Sudanese migrant in Belfast attempts to behead a man on the street, protesters set buses and police cars on fire across Northern Ireland, and Zohran Mamdani keeps beating the drum to abolish ICE. Decarlos Brown Jr. is found mentally incompetent to stand trial in the Iryna Zarutska Charlotte light rail murder, and Aaron closes with Aaronalysis on the Gallup morality poll — specifically why 89% of Americans call affairs immoral while 74% say divorce is acceptable, and why you cannot square that circle.

Todd Blanche, Brendan Sorsby, Graham Platner, Brooke Rollins, and Pastor Dave Chrest headline today's A.M. Update. The DOJ files denaturalization actions against 17 naturalized citizens whose rap sheets include child sexual abuse, H1B fraud, stock manipulation, and grooming — and Aaron says this is one bite of what is likely a very large elephant. Trump goes after Senate Majority Leader John Thune on Truth Social over the parliamentarian again, and Aaron wonders aloud whether Thune is using her as a scapegoat to explain Republican inaction to the White House. Texas Tech quarterback Brendan Sorsby wins a court injunction allowing him to play despite betting $90,000 on his own sport, Aaron compares it to the Iowa player who lost his career over a single $10 bet on women's basketball, and says nobody has any power in college sports anymore. Brooke Rollins gives an update on the screwworm outbreak in southern Texas and the sterile fly production ramp-up, Graham Platner refuses to drop out of the Maine Senate race despite the Nazi tattoo and the sexting scandal, and Aaron closes with HelloFresh's viral pride month post and a youth pastor named Dave Krist at Gateway Church who had a very different message for his congregation.

Trump's Kristen Welker walkoff, the Cities Church ruling, Thomas Crooks, H1B fraud, and the jobs report headline today's A.M. Update. Trump drops his mic and walks off an NBC News interview after Kristen Welker pushes California election fraud questions, and Aaron asks the obvious follow-up: if the press is that dishonest, why keep giving them the interviews. New Judicial Watch documents reveal Thomas Matthew Crooks exchanged emails with a Butler County sheriff's deputy before the July 2024 assassination attempt, and a remote device with an antenna was found in his pocket. St. Paul City Attorney Irene Kao declines to file state charges against the anti-ICE protesters who stormed Cities Church in January, and lead pastor Jonathan Parnell asks his mayor directly whether evangelical Christians are included in her commitment to the city. A blowout May jobs report of 172,000 new payrolls sends markets tumbling as investors price in a Fed rate hike, with the S&P 500 posting its worst day since October. Kayleigh McEnany airs an H1B visa fraud report on Fox News that Aaron says you would never have seen there ten years ago, and Aaron closes with Jeff Bezos on why compromise is not truth-seeking and what that actually means outside the boardroom.

John Bolton, Vincent Munster, Claude Kwe, Karmelo Anthony, and the war powers resolution headline today's A.M. Update. Trump blasts House Republicans for passing a war powers resolution mid-Iran negotiations, but Aaron floats a take he cannot shake: the vote might actually be Trump's exit ramp out of a deal that was never going to happen. John Bolton pleads guilty to one count of retaining national security information and agrees to $2.25 million in restitution, and Aaron questions whether that counts as the scalp DOJ's critics were hoping for. Two NIH researchers, Vincent Munster and Claude Kwe, are charged with smuggling 113 vials of monkeypox through Detroit Metro Airport after lying to customs agents, and Brooke Rollins confirms a new world screwworm detection in Zavala County, Texas. YouTuber Jesse Ridgeway announces he and his wife terminated their pregnancy after a Down syndrome diagnosis, and Aaron does not pull punches. The AOTMA segment covers a listener's plans to create a crisis Bible for the suicidal, nuclear family month spreading to Tennessee, Alabama, and Arkansas, the two-tiered justice system, SNAP cards being used at fast food restaurants in Michigan, and a candid update on the show's distribution struggles.

Todd Blanche, Josh Turek, Ashley Hinson, Tim McBride, and Spencer Pratt headline today's A.M. Update. Trump tells Miranda Devine at the New York Post he wants acting AG Todd Blanche to stay permanently, and Aaron says the DOJ's activity record makes it hard to argue with. California primary results are still trickling in with Steve Hilton leading the Republican field at 27.8% and Spencer Pratt trailing Karen Bass by only about four points with votes still outstanding, and Aaron breaks down the campaign lessons Pratt's run already offers any candidate willing to learn them. Secretary of State Marco Rubio methodically dismantles Senator Jacky Rosen's gotcha question about the Pakistan negotiations, then tells Congressman Tim McBride that Greenland is part of Denmark "for now" — and Aaron says that was the best line of the week. Iowa's general election matchup is now set: Republican Ashley Hinson faces Paralympic gold medalist and Democrat Josh Turek for Joni Ernst's retiring Senate seat, and Aaron closes with a deep dive on what Zach Lahn's populist anti-big-ag message means for Iowa politics and why it might quietly split the Democratic coalition in November.

Zach Lahn, Scott Pelley, Bill Pulte, and the California jungle primary headline today's A.M. Update. In a photo finish, businessman Zach Lahn defeats Trump-endorsed congressman Randy Feenstra in Iowa's Republican gubernatorial primary by less than a percentage point, and Aaron says the MAHA coalition was the deciding factor. California's jungle primary has Steve Hilton leading the Republican pack while Tom Steyer and Xavier Becerra close strong on the Democratic side, raising the possibility that two Democrats could end up in the general. Trump names FHFA director Bill Pulte as acting DNI to replace Tulsi Gabbard, a pick Aaron notes will have trouble clearing the Senate. Scott Pelley is fired at CBS after going nuclear on Bari Weiss in front of the entire 60 Minutes staff, calling her a murderer of the show, and Aaron sides with Weiss. The Supreme Court clears Alabama to use its redrawn congressional districts, Mehmet Oz announces $50 Medicare GLP-1 coverage starting July 1st, and Aaron closes with Indiana Governor Mike Braun's nuclear family month proclamation and a viral video of a corporate employee who submitted a biblical take on pride to his company's own open-call campaign, after which the entire program was quietly shut down.

Tyler Robinson, Markwayne Mullin, Ron DeSantis, and Graham Platner headline today's A.M. Update. Judge Tony Graf rules the public and press cannot be barred from Tyler Robinson's upcoming preliminary hearing, meaning potentially bombshell evidence against Charlie Kirk's alleged killer will be visible to the world. Iran remains a chaotic blur of strikes, broken communications, and shifting demands, with the IRGC now insisting any deal must include leaving Hezbollah alone in Lebanon, and Aaron says it's starting to look less like 3D chess and more like the U.S. being pressured. DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin confirms some of the Delaney Hall protesters were bussed in from Portland, Oregon, as a curfew holds in Newark. Ron DeSantis pushes his case for eliminating Florida homestead property taxes, arguing tourist revenue can absorb the cost in a way no other state can replicate. Graham Platner loses The View and Cory Booker in the same news cycle as his Maine Senate campaign crumbles under the weight of sexting allegations, Nazi tattoo history, and a suspicious app account. Aaron closes with Rep. Tim Burchett's pitch to replace the 250th birthday concert dropouts with John Rich, Kid Rock, and Lee Greenwood, and the story of Henry Nowak, the British student handcuffed by police as he bled to death from a stab wound after his killer falsely claimed to be the victim.

Randy Feenstra, Zach Lahn, Graham Platner, Trevor Williams, and Jill Biden headline today's A.M. Update. Trump tells Lara Trump the Iran deal is close but if it falls apart the Department of War starts back up, while Scott Bessent defines finishing the job as simply reopening the Strait and keeping uranium out of Iranian hands. Anti-Antifa rioters attack police on horseback outside the Delaney Hall ICE facility in Newark as Mayor Ras Baraka finally imposes a curfew. The Washington Nationals fire director of community relations Sean Hudson after an O'Keefe Media Group sting catches him admitting the team deliberately excluded Catholic pitcher Trevor Williams from social media because of his faith. Graham Platner's Senate campaign in Maine adds another scandal as his wife confirms reports that she told the campaign about his sexually explicit texts with other women. Jill Biden smirks through a CBS interview claiming she saw no signs of cognitive decline in her husband. Aaron closes with a deeply personal look at the Iowa governor's race, where Trump's surprise endorsement of Randy Feenstra set Turning Point Action against the White House, and why losing Charlie Kirk means there is nobody left to broker that conversation. Subscribe and listen every weekday morning.

JD Vance, Jacob Wenske, Tickle v. Giggle, and Michigan SNAP fraud headline today's A.M. Update. Vance delivers a just war theory address at the Air Force Academy warning graduates that as AI takes over warfare, the moral weight of life and death decisions must stay with humans. A Texas man named Jacob Wenske is arrested on two felony counts for posting bomb threats and death threats against Erika Kirk ahead of the San Antonio TPUSA summit, and Aaron ties it directly to the Candice Owens crowd's slander campaign against her. Reports suggest the DOJ may be looking into E. Jean Carroll for alleged perjury over her claim of receiving no outside funding for her Trump lawsuits, though details remain unconfirmed. Australia's Full Federal Court doubles damages against women-only app Giggle for Girls for blocking a biological male who identified as transgender, Michigan refuses to share SNAP data with the feds despite a 9.53% self-reported fraud rate, and Aaron closes the week with the White House's Harambe tribute post.

Scott Bessent, Pete Hegseth, James Talarico, Mike Pence, and the Delaney Hall ICE protests headline today's A.M. Update. Trump's cabinet meeting covers Iran negotiations, Scott Bessent calling ongoing price increases transitory and projecting 4.3% GDP growth this quarter, Marco Rubio's update on the Venezuela three-step plan, and Pete Hegseth revealing that at Trump's personal directive the U.S. hunted and killed Abu-Bilal al-Minuki, ISIS's number two in Nigeria and the most active terrorist in the world, along with hundreds of other ISIS fighters who were slaughtering Nigerian Christians. James Talarico goes on CBS and calls his own "God is non-binary" comment cringy while still trying to defend it, and Aaron takes apart his attempted Pauline justification piece by piece. Federal agents deploy pepper spray and batons against anti-ICE protesters blockading the Delaney Hall detention facility in Newark, including a viral moment where the crowd cheers two brown-skinned men walking out before realizing they are ICE agents. Mike Pence crawls out of his spider hole to complain about mean politics, and Aaron reads John Adams calling Alexander Hamilton a bastard to make his point. Aaron closes with new research showing 75% of consumers including 79% of parents support adults-only dining options, set against the backdrop of the ongoing Christian slaughter in Nigeria, and a challenge to put it all in proper perspective.

Ken Paxton, James Talarico, JD Vance, Stephen Miller, Spencer Pratt, and Zohran Mamdani headline today's A.M. Update. Ken Paxton defeats incumbent Sen. John Cornyn in the Texas Republican Senate runoff, setting up a November race against Democrat James Talarico, and Aaron plays a clip of Talarico using his Christian faith to defend abortion access and takes it apart piece by piece. JD Vance chairs a bipartisan anti-fraud roundtable with 15 state attorneys general including Connecticut and Oregon, and Stephen Miller expands on his claim that rooting out welfare fraud at scale could balance the federal budget, tracing the collapse of the honor system to decades of mass immigration from cultures that don't share it. Zohran Mamdani threatens to seize and redistribute property from negligent New York City landlords, and Aaron points out the city's own regulations are what drove the neglect in the first place. A resurfaced Spencer Pratt video from February shows him saying he does not want ICE in LA either, and then explaining exactly why Karen Bass is the one who keeps inviting them in. A new Christian mobile carrier called Radiant Mobile launches on the T-Mobile network with a network-level firewall blocking pornography and other harmful content, tied to research showing pornography is a problem for 74% of Gen Z men. Aaron closes with the story of biking 36 miles to work and back on a 90-degree day, and the fountain Dr Pepper from Casey's that almost saved his life at mile 34.

Iran deal rumors, Thomas Massie, Camille Kiefel, Bryan Walsh at Vox, and Chris Olah of Anthropic headline today's A.M. Update. Trump's Memorial Day Truth Social post lays out his framework for an Iran settlement, demanding Saudi Arabia and Qatar sign the Abraham Accords first, while Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian goes on state television to say Iran is not seeking nuclear weapons, and Marco Rubio cautions that paper agreements still have to be implemented. A gunman opens fire at a Secret Service checkpoint outside the White House on Saturday and is killed, with a bystander also hit by gunfire. Freshly ousted Rep. Thomas Massie goes on the media circuit promising to read the full Epstein client list on the House floor before he leaves Congress, and Aaron calls it not finishing well. Detransitioner Camille Kiefel reaches a reported $3.5 million settlement against the two Oregon therapists who approved her double mastectomy after brief Zoom calls. A veteran Vox climate journalist named Bryan Walsh admits that over a decade of apocalyptic climate coverage was built on an imaginary worst-case model called RCP8.5, not actual forecasting. Aaron closes with Chris Olah's remarks at the Vatican on AI's unsettling inner workings, and Aaron's own personal story: 82 app builds, two hours saved every day, and a pregnancy app for his wife now pending Apple review.

Graham Platner, Maureen Galindo, Raúl Castro, Jeff Bezos, and Pete Hegseth headline today's A.M. Update. Trump calls out Senate Republicans for keeping Obama-era parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough in place, and Aaron uses John Cornyn's non-answer about his Senate record to lay out exactly why he deserved the Paxton endorsement — the list of accomplishments is a long silence. Maine Democratic Senate candidate Graham Platner takes another hit as a resurfaced Reddit post shows him mocking a Purple Heart recipient who was shot four times by the Taliban, while Texas 35th district Democrat Maureen Galindo faces backlash even from her own party after pledging to turn the Karnes ICE detention center into a prison for American Zionists, and a castration facility. The DOJ unseals a 1996 indictment against Raúl Castro for the shootdown of two unarmed Brothers to the Rescue aircraft, with acting AG Todd Blanche announcing the charges to an enthusiastic Miami crowd. Jeff Bezos does a wide-ranging CNBC interview calling for zero income taxes on the bottom 50% of earners and criticizing corporate welfare — and Aaron unpacks why the taxation idea would actually increase class resentment. Aaron closes with Pete Hegseth's Rededicate 250 remarks on George Washington kneeling in the snow at Valley Forge.

Thomas Massie, Ken Paxton, Karoline Leavitt, Canada's euthanasia laws, and Marco Rubio headline today's A.M. Update. Trump scores another primary scalp as Ed Gallrein defeats Rep. Thomas Massie in Kentucky's 4th district — the most expensive House primary on record — while Trump simultaneously endorses Ken Paxton over incumbent Sen. John Cornyn in next week's Texas Senate runoff, leaving Senate Majority Leader John Thune visibly rattled. JD Vance steps in for Karoline Leavitt at the White House briefing and defends Trump's "I don't think about Americans' finances" comment for over an hour, and the NAACP calls for a student athlete boycott of Southern state universities over redistricting. A resurfaced comment from a Quebec College of Physicians member proposing euthanasia for disabled infants up to one year old prompts Aaron's broader warning about Canada's medically assisted dying laws and the slippery slope from allowance to coercion. Aaron closes with Marco Rubio's Rededicate 250 address tracing America's Christian foundation from the Puritans to the moon landing, and a sharp response to various voices crying about an ungovernable Senate: all you had to do was pass the SAVE Act.

Trump calls off Iran strike again, the Mangione murder weapon ruling, Gavin Newsom's "break the glass" threat, and Rededicate 250 headline today's A.M. Update. Trump posts on Truth Social that Gulf state leaders asked him to hold off on a planned attack on Iran — again — as Aaron flatly says he no longer thinks there's a plan. Luigi Mangione loses his bid to suppress the murder weapon at trial but wins a small evidence ruling, while three women from his fan club show up at the courthouse to celebrate and say things Aaron calls "wack." A security guard is killed in a shooting at San Diego's largest mosque as two apparent suspects are found dead nearby, and a fast-moving wind-driven wildfire scorches more than 500 acres in Simi Valley. Gavin Newsom hints at a "break the glass" scenario if Democrats get frozen out of California's gubernatorial jungle primary. Zohran Mamdani tries to riff on Reagan's famous government quote and Aaron isn't impressed. All four crew members eject safely after two Navy EA-18G Growlers collide at the Gunfighter Skies Air Show at Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho, Texas Children's Hospital agrees to a $10 million settlement and opens the nation's first detransition clinic, and Aaron closes with JD Vance's Rededicate 250 speech and a challenge to listeners not to take religious freedom for granted.

Trump's China visit, Boeing jets, an IED found at an Alabama dam, Abdul El-Sayed, Hasan Piker, the Temple Israel attack, and an abortion pill at a gender reveal party headline today's A.M. Update. Aaron also covers the Air Force rescue of 11 Bahamian plane crash survivors, Watertown Wisconsin's school board walkout over a trans-themed concert piece, the CIA-DNI standoff, data centers, foreign land ownership, and a late-night theology question about Satan in the garden.

Trump lands in China with Elon Musk and Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang in tow, as the State Department simultaneously sanctions four Chinese companies for giving Iran satellite imagery to attack U.S. bases, and a CIA whistleblower testifies publicly before Rand Paul's committee that the intelligence community deliberately covered up the COVID lab leak — and that Fauci's role was intentional. JD Vance announces $1.3 billion in withheld Medicaid payments to California over rampant fraud, with Mehmet Oz revealing that 780 out of 800 booted fraudulent providers never even called to dispute it. Rand Paul's son William Paul goes on a drunken antisemitic tirade at a DC bar directed at Rep. Mike Lawler, King Charles pushes a digital ID decree that Aaron says is a perfect reminder of why America fought the Revolution, the Pope's apparent diplomatic honor to Iran's ambassador turns out to be a routine Vatican practice that Iranian state media ran with anyway, and Hannah Harper, a Missouri stay-at-home mom of three, wins American Idol with a song about postpartum depression.

The latest CPI report shows inflation at its highest point since May 2023, with fuel oil up 54% and gasoline up 28%, as Trump deflects a question about Americans' financial pain by saying his only focus is keeping Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. FDA Commissioner Marty Makary resigns under pressure from pro-life groups and the White House over his handling of mifepristone, while 23 states file a Supreme Court brief to block mail-order distribution of the drug, and General Dan Caine tells the Senate that maximum pressure on Iran is holding but the timeline is a political decision. FBI Director Kash Patel fires back at a senator grilling him with personal allegations, Rand Paul announces a CIA whistleblower will testify publicly on COVID origins, a Russian ship suspected of carrying nuclear technology to North Korea mysteriously sank in the Mediterranean, a 78-year-old Northern Ireland pastor is convicted for preaching near a hospital, and the U.S. withdraws from the UN Global Compact on Migration.

Trump says the Iran ceasefire is "on life support" after the latest round of failed negotiations, while praising Xi Jinping ahead of their China meeting and hinting bombs could drop again within days. The Arcadia, California mayor Eileen Wang has been charged as an illegal agent of the Chinese Communist Party, and reports surface that Trump may be considering allowing China to invest $1 trillion on American soil. Dr. Deborah Birx reappears on cable news calling for more PCR testing over the hantavirus outbreak, Democrats threaten judicial reform after losing the Virginia redistricting battle, Netanyahu says he wants to draw down U.S. military aid to zero over the next decade, Coach Curt Cignetti and the national champion Indiana Hoosiers are honored at the White House, and Aaron closes with a deeper look at Spencer Pratt's political instincts and what he reminds him of.

Iran responds to the U.S. peace proposal with no mention of its nuclear program, as Netanyahu draws a hard red line on enriched uranium and Trump shrugs off the Fort Knox audit question in his Sharyl Attkisson interview. Spencer Pratt keeps gaining ground in the LA mayor's race as Karen Bass ducks a second debate, redistricting continues breaking Republicans' way in Virginia and Tennessee, and Wes Moore refuses to give a straight answer when asked about gender ideology and his own son. Southern Baptist baptism numbers are up for the fifth straight year, Erika Kirk spoke at Hillsdale's commencement, and Aaron closes with the Seattle story he can't get out of his head: a 77-year-old Army veteran beaten on the sidewalk while bystander after bystander just kept walking.

The Iran situation keeps spinning with Project Freedom on again, off again, and Saudi Arabia flip-flopping on U.S. air base access, while Marco Rubio met with Pope Leo XIV at the Vatican and received an unusually warm welcome that has Aaron's "spidey senses tingling." The episode also covers Tennessee Democrats melting down over congressional redistricting, Neil Gorsuch sparking debate with his "creedal nation" comments, a moving update from the mother of wounded National Guardsman Andrew Wolfe, a sharp satirical blog post on right-wing online catastrophizing, and listener questions on Trump's endorsement strategy and the 2026 midterms.

President Trump pauses Project Freedom amid reports a deal with Iran may be closer than ever, while Israel strikes Beirut and the US military fires on an Iranian oil tanker trying to break the blockade. The episode also covers the massive MacArthur Park fentanyl bust, pro-Hamas protesters forcing a Jewish daycare to close in New York City, NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani's silence on a removed page promoting Israeli businesses, Kash Patel clamming up on UAPs, looksmaxxing streamer Clavicular charged for shooting an alligator in the Everglades, the death of CNN founder Ted Turner, Marco Rubio on American exceptionalism, and the poll results on whether Trump assassination suspect Cole Allen will face life in prison.

Marco Rubio delivers a stark warning about why a nuclear-armed Iran would be able to control the Strait of Hormuz unchecked, while Pete Hegseth says Project Freedom is proving Iran doesn't own the waterway. The episode also covers the disturbing motive behind the suspected arsonist in the Palisades Fire, the hantavirus cruise ship outbreak, JD Vance campaigning in Iowa, Karen Bass posting anti-ICE signs across Los Angeles, Walgreens abandoning Chicago neighborhoods, and Trump reviving the Presidential Fitness Award.

A federal judge apologizes to Cole Allen in open court and compares his treatment to January 6 defendants, while the Supreme Court temporarily restores mail-order abortion drugs over Louisiana's objections. Plus, a Daily Wire investigation reveals an entire street of fake Medicaid companies in Ohio funneling tens of millions in taxpayer money.

Iran keeps sending proposals that go nowhere, Scott Bessent says the economic blockade is suffocating the regime, and prediction markets now show southern states above 50% to redistrict before the midterms. Plus, Tucker Carlson gives a baffling New York Times interview, and hard data shows taking your kids to church is one of the most powerful predictors of success in life.

Biden's handler's latest immigration fig leaf is a paper tiger. Merrick Garland does his best Sgt. Schultz impression. And Miss Rachel is back in the news for all the wrong reasons.

Dr. Fauci gets grilled, or something, in front of a House panel. Bob Menendez: hate the game, not the player. You need to hear this message from a preacher out east. And a word on minimizing that which you can't control, and maximizing what you can.

Nancy Pelosi is shocked an MSNBC anchor tripped into an act of journalism. Putting down the commie LARPers. Having a family is now considered extremely right-wing. And Vivek Ramaswamy might be in the same place as some founding fathers, but they ain't gonna be worried about America.

Kristi Noem had a decent reason to put that dog down, but she should keep it to herself. Pro-Hamas orcs and commies LARP around campuses. And another example of out of control AI wreaking havoc.

Aaron and Bella are back for another edition of No Suck Saturday.

Aaron and Bella are back with five stories that don't suck. Bella also has a harrowing story from the world of labor and delivery.

Aaron and Bella are back with another edition of No Suck Saturday: five stories that objectively don't suck (including one about a baby, a random woman on an airplane, and crocheting). They also study a good, but rather meandering chapter of Francis and Lisa Chan's book, "You and Me Forever."

Aaron turns the tables on Ask (or tell) Me Anything.

...

...

...

...

It's another Ask (or tell) Me Anything.

No refueling the strategic petroleum reserve, for now, and no rate cuts either. Political drama brewing in Israel. More pro-lifers convicted of being Christians. And Dusty Deevers nails it.

...

More fallout from Easter Day of Trans Visibility. The new Republican Party, if we're lucky. Looking back at what used to be "conservatism." Havanna $yndrome. And Richard Dawkins slowly realizing his godless scorpion has a stinger, too.

The Biden White House tries to troll God, and God laughs. A bad guy gets locked up, for once. A Turkish surprise. And a review of a new documentary series all the kids are talking about.

Another Ask (or tell) Me Anything.

Back with a stream-of-consciousness A.M. Update.

Happy Monday!

...

Ask (or Tell) Me Anything tackles whether Iowa would be a suitable location to flee from the Red Star State.

Being jerked around by judicial supremacy. Biden on the economy. Biden judicial pick doesn't know what an "assault weapon" is (even though she signed off on recommending a ban). And I know you've been waiting with baited breath for these predictions.

SCOTUS makes a strange, pleasant 180 on Texas' border law. DeSantis Airways could be coming to a New England island soon. Peter Navarro is now in federal prison. Homeowner arrested for kicking out squatter. And stream-of-consciousness thoughts about RFK Jr's purported VP pick.

KBJ says the 1st Amendment is 'meh.' Laken Riley's father speaks out. Morning Joe loses his bowels live on-air. Harrison Butker drops bombs about "gun control" and the need for strong fathers. Aaronalysis is my reaction to your reaction of my reaction.

The media has learned no lessons. The RFK Jr. veepstakes may be coming to a close. Illegal problems, and Florida solutions. The NCAA faces another lawsuit, this time targeting Title IX. And not going along with lies about a liar.

Ask (or tell) me anything covers topics from Bible reading to best non-meat smoked dishes.

Nancy Pelosi has deep thoughts. Janet Yellen has regrets. Ron DeSantis says no to Haitian cannibals. Rand Paul for Senate Leader? And what is retirement, anyway?

...

The White House ain't apologizing for squat. After a girl gets her head bashed into the pavement, we need to talk about one crime stat. Updates from the Sunshine State. FDNY launching investigation into hecklers. And meet Barack Obama: certified xenophobic Christian Nationalist.

...

Another Friday edition of Ask (or tell) Me Anything, featuring one submission from a long-time servicemember who believes, contrary to prevailing right-of-center thinking, that now is the time for young, Godly men to serve in the military.

We go on a deep-dive of newly-released videos and documents from the world's leading authority on so-called "gender medicine."

...

SCOTUS smacks rogue judges, and commies have a meltdown. Good news for Texas dashed quickly by the Biden administration. France celebrates baby killing. And a wholesome scene in an Oklahoma school that shouldn't stick out -- but does.

Another edition of Ask (or tell) Me Anything.

SCOTUS will hear Trump's immunity claim. Ding-dong Mitch McConnell is gone, kind of. Athens, Georgia's mayor is an evil monster. A weird carve-out in a new California law. The most based legislator in the land? And Joe Rogan says we need Jesus.

One clip should be a symbol of the GOP's prospects in November. Republicans try hard to make 2024 a referendum on Ukraine. Joe Biden goes on a late, late, late show and proves his youthful vigor. Major automakers are giving up on electric vehicles for now, and Apple says so long to ten years of R&D. Dr. Phil drops some bombs on The View.

...

The natural consequences of an open border ends in tragedy in Georgia. Yet another trans hoax falls apart. A former major player in left-wing media is disintegrating. And three more thoughts on IVF.

Another edition of Ask (Or Tell) Me Anything.

Russiagate 2.0 is on. Kamalablidygook update. Nayib Bukele destroy reporter complaining about El Salvador's high incarceration rate. And why trolling ain't a substitute for winning.

...

...

Trump punished punitively, and Biden's brother committed actual corruption. A case in Alabama could (hopefully) have nationwide reverberations. We learn what the country of Eritrea is, but not why its people are burning stuff in Netherlands and North Carolina. And what it sounds like when the spirit of the age plays Mad Libs.

Aaron answers a broad variety of questions and comments.

From triumph to tragedy in K.C. Apparently Russia is the new Iraq. Tr*nnies on parade in New England. Climate cultists come for the constitution. And why it's good we didn't fall for the latest swampy fiction.

The House impeached Mayorkas. Another news cycle where Biden's mental acuity is called into question. The Daily Caller says it has a bombshell on what's driving disastrous military recruiting numbers. $50/hour minimum wage? Did we pinpoint when Disney went woke? And a redux on Harrison Butker of the Kansas City Chiefs.

...

Joe Biden complains about Bidenomics. Donald Trump says hold my beer. The DNC is afraid of RFK. A headline only fit for the fall of civilization. Ladapo and DeSantis savage masks. And is Vladimir Putin butthurt over western rejection?

It's another edition of Ask (Or Tell) Me Anything!

The U.S. claims a drone strike in Iraq killed a terrorist; Iraqi authorities say it killed civilians. How quickly things change in 20 years. One prominent Florida Democrat is added to the list of those who haven't a clue what a woman is. Dispatches from Kentucky. And the Asbury Revival, revisited one year later.

Appeals court says Trump didn't enjoy presidential immunity in the leadup to J6. Ronna Romney McDaniel is stepping down from chair of the RNC. Joe Biden isn't expected to be charged in his mishandled classified documents case. He's also claiming he's to the right of Republicans on border security. The White House also successfully pressured Amazon to censor jab-critical books. And why Tucker's interview with Putin should be the interview of the century, but probably won't be.

Senator James Lankford defends his awful border "security" "compromise." The king has cancer. More allegegations against Fani Willis. Jerome Powell is worried about the national debt, all the sudden. Tough questions for Justin Castro. And a postscript on that CIA espionage story...

...

Immigration and Customs Enforcement confirms they messed up. Lloyd Austin apologizes for not disclosing his serious medical condition. Ayanna Pressley says businesses who don't want to be repeatedly burglarized are racist. Joe Ladapo makes an ominous suggestion. And some high schoolers are still based.

Hating Satan is now a hate crime in the Hawkeye state. Still winning in Florida. What was Tom Cotton doing? French farmers still protesting. Utah: another bastion of sanity? RFK Jr. with some alarming perspective on the southern border. And it's time to lay off the Taylor Swift/Travis Kelce paranoia.

A jury in Tennessee of all places has found 6 pro-lifers guilty of violating the FACE Act for peacefully praying near a baby killing facility. UPS announces major layoffs. Congresswoman Cori Bush paid her now-husband over $100,000 for "security." Netanyahu says no pullout of Gaza is on the table. Could we be close to finding Amelia Earhart's plane? And this basketball coach needs to stop complaining and instead thank her lucky stars.

New reporting indicates confusion over allied and enemy drones may have resulted in the deaths of three U.S. soldiers, and injuries of dozens more. Meanwhile, dementia is viral at the White House, and our SoS says the Middle East is as fragile as it has been in a generation. Janet Yellen thinks you're stupid. The federal government allowed a Somali terrorist to walk the earth for a year, and Ilhan Omar says she works for Somalia. The E.U. has its non-gendered priorities straight. And one story out of Montana shows there's nowhere to hide from the spirit of the age.

Three U.S. service members were killed in Jordan by suspected Iran-backed groups. Trump's defamation case will likely be appealed. Mike Johnson says the atrocious Senate "compromise" on border security is dead on arrival in the House. Biden takes revenge on Texas. Cruz goes ape. And Begg disappoints.

Aaron answers questions from his audience on X.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott strikes his most defiant tone yet -- but one former conservative AG says it might be smoke and mirrors. Biden gets a union endorsement. Nancy Pelosi has thoughts on mental acuity. Why is every syllable of news that comes out of Ukraine sketchy? And why what's gone on with the rainbow jihad over the past generation isn't an aberration.

Texas continues erecting obstacles along the southern border, despite SCOTUS telling them to stop. Turkey ratifies Sweden's NATO membership. Trump wins New Hampshire. Apparently, a memo went out to Democrats far and near to start talking about baby killing. A Canadian judge smacks Trudeau. And one Oklahoma pastor is a badass.

SCOTUS says the feds can maintain an open border, thank you very much. Those SEALs missing off the coast of Somalia have been declared dead. Missing screws on an intercontinental passenger jet. UW-Madison faces a racial discrimination lawsuit -- but it's not what you'd expect. Even you might be surprised how out of touch American elites are. And some big-picture thoughts now that the GOP primary-that-wasn't is over.

God bless Texas for the first time in awhile. The Pentagon says attacks on U.S. troops are no big deal. Attacks on gas stoves are a big deal. The Heritage Foundation president spits in the face of the WEF's elites. And Yuval Noah Harari cannot win.

Congress passed ANOTHER stopgap government funding bill. Netanyahu puts the kibosh on the idea of another independent "Palestianian state." What went wrong at Uvalde. And how the mRNA COVID jabs could be the cause of a concerning trend.

NYC will indeed attempt to punish acts of self-defense. The DoJ confirms Hunter Biden's laptop from Hell is real. To open borders fanatics, illegals are just economic widgets. New memos uncovered by a House subcomittee shows the federal government asked banks to monitor for transactions including the terms "MAGA" or "Trump." NBC has a weird edit. And Alistair Begg misses the mark.

More instability in the Middle East: Iran is taking things up a notch. Virginia is warning folks about measles, if you passed through their two major airports earlier this month. Mike Johnson is warning federal employees not to walk out. Kamalablidygood update. Chinese scientists experimented with a lethal version of COVID -- what could go wrong?

Brief thoughts in the aftermath of last night's Iowa caucuses.

A group of pro-Hamas orcs gets violent at the White House. Two Navy SEALS go missing near Somalia. Despite the blizzard, GOP candidates make their closing pitches. Joe Biden says there's no crisis at the border. Democrats once again prove they never really moved on from the Civil War. When government doesn't punish evil, it punishes good. And you are what you prioritize.

U.S. and allies bomb Houthi targets in Yemen. All eyes on a very, very cold Iowa. Ohio's House does the right thing. Hertz starts selling off EVs. The leftiest lefty of a decade ago sounds like a border hawk now. And don't be too hard on this zoomer.

Somebody is lying in the Trump/Epstein story. Last week's school shooting in Iowa could be another example of a known wolf. Senate/House leaders strike funding deal. Mayorkas says the DHS is doing its job, actually. DeSantis has a closing pitch in Iowa. It's a miracle nobody died in an explosion in Fort Worth. Something may happen this year that hasn't happened since Thomas Jefferson was president. And "our side" (whatever that is) is getting better at something...

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin was in the ICU, and the Pentagon didn't tell the White House. Biden brags about throwing Trump supporters in prison. Iowa is one week away, and the candidates are coming in hot and heavy in the Hawkeye state. DeWine reverses course. The plight of Amos Miller. And an Iowa Caucus preview, one week out.

Senseless tragedy stikes Iowa, purportedly by a member of the rainbow mafia. DeSantis stands tall for the 2nd Amendment even when it's not popular or easy. Haley insults Iowans. Another ballot challenge against Trump. Biden triples down on declaring war on half the country. One comedian puts to bed every bit of COVID propoganda. And a preview of tomorrow's inaugural episode of No Suck Saturday.

DHS secretary Mayorkas blames global warming and Greg Abbott for illegal immigration crisis. Bombing in Iran heightens already high tensions. Day 9 of Haley cleaning up her civil war mess. Missouri's governor takes action against China. How long could a $1 million dollar retirement go these days? And why one story from Arizona is particularly irksome -- and what to do about it.

A couple of independent journalists take a rare scalp from woke academia. The caucus approaches. Trump wants to build a "spectacular" new FBI building. DeWine is DeWorst. A record-breaking December at the southern border. Learning more about the Maine Secretary of State. Japan gets rocked. Rainbow jihad activists tell on themselves. And my resolution for the new year.

Nikki Haley doesn't know much about the Civil War, apparently. Trump still won't say he's ruling her out as VP (if he gets the GOP nomination). Lindsey Graham says Lindsey Graham things. Lauren Boebert runs for higher ground. Francis Collins is on the straight and narrow now (no, seriously). A massacre of Christians nobody in the MSM is talking about. And yet another week shows Ron DeSantis is the most fit for the highest office in the land.

Three stories to close out 2023 could be a preview of much more to come next year. Is Delta getting a kickback for transporting illegals? Ad expenditures continue to boggle the mind. RFK Jr. swings and misses. It's a brutal zombie deer season. Hulk Hogan gets baptized. And why, if you believe in anything worth believing, you're never gonna be cool.

Colorado may have jumped the gun on the ultimate plan against Trump. Texas makes committing crime, a crime. Dispatches from Wuhan. The Pentagon left Americans in Afghanistan (but definitely not weapons). Eric Adams steps in it. And one of my favorite tales of Christmas tradition.

One man will never, ever drink and drive again. Tennessee takes on ESG and BlackRock. DeSantis on why Trump wasn't and isn't a threat to the system. Trump laments the burning down of cities. And Orwell goes to Arlington National Cemetary.

A BIG announcement for the AM Update. Rudy's on the wrong end of a defamation suit (and it's a little steep). More trouble for DeSantis' SuperPAC. Israel turns up the heat. Mainstreaming genocidal dogwhistles -- what could go wrong? And more on the future of The A.M. Update.

The NDAA heads to Joe Biden's desk, complete with warrantless spying on American citizens. Israel pumps water. A man from Mississippi smashes and idol in Iowa. The best, worst, and funniest things I heard this week.

Potentially huge news out of Washington, D.C. in the 2020 election case involving Donald Trump (and potentially J6ers). Hunter Biden is very sad. Ron DeSantis holds a town hall in Iowa. And why one form of lying should be criminalized -- harshly.

Penn's president resigns after disastrous congressional testimony. Trump endorses Sharia Muslim for congress. DeSantis talks about how his faith drives him. New data about mRNA technology is bad news. And Anthony Fauci is spirit of the age in a bottle.

Fridays are like a box of chocolates on the AM UPdate...you never know what you're gonna get.

Nikki Haley: she's lying because she's liberal.

Illegals love Joe Biden. Chris Wray has no answers (and gets really mad). Nikki's wicked and evil comments on transing kids resurface. Riley Gaines fights. Newsom cancels Christmas because Hamas. And the right-wing version of transgenderism.

A house in Virginia exploded last night, and it could be heard from the White House. Online sleuths found the occupant wrote lengthy, paranoid, and lefty screeds online in recent days. More invasion on the border, this time in California. Yet ANOTHER Biden crime family update. And the global warming nuts aren't merely nutty.

A U.S. ship was among vessels targeted by terrorists in the Red Sea. We've clearly learned no lessons from COVID. John Fetterman has me pinching myself. DeSantis completes the full Grassley. And why no one loves Trump enough.

All the highlights from Ron DeSantis' curb stomp of California governor Gavin Newsom.

Trump lauds endorsement from BLM leader. Students for Trump co-founder arrested for domestic assault. Vivek is for segregation. Elon drops bombs. Nikki Haley is a lot of things; conservative isn't one. And one Michigan township hopefully starts a trend.

Elon Musk goes to Israel. DeSantis endorses term limits. AI strikes again. And actual racism's deman once again outpaces its supply.

Hamas releases more hostages. Biden says Thanksgiving was actually cheap. Our Education Secretary needs an education. Honda recalls 300,000 vehicles. And one word's definition determines the fate of civilization.

Major developments internationally. More injustice for Derek Chauvin. A couple of updates from the campaign trail. Not-so-bad news from Nevada. Tucker Carlson, better speaker that Twitter-er. And one behavior that cannot become normalized.

...

...

Updates from Israel. A different J6 story could be close to emerging. Trump talks about golden showers. And a highlight and obsevations from The Family Leader's Thanksgiving Family Forum.

Fridays are like a box of chocolates...you never know what you're gonna get.

...

Nikki Haley is self-immolating. DeSantis knocks Haley for woke comments after George Floyd death. How did ABC News obtain this video? We're still trying to figure out who blew up Nordstream. And why I'm for online anonymity.

...

Moody's lowers their credit status for the U.S. How quickly we've forgotten. On the campaing trail, Trump forgets who's president and DeSantis with a reminder of broken promises. PBS tries to shut down RFK Jr, and it didn't go well. And the RNC blinked.

...

Highlights and quick reaction from the third GOP primary debate.

It was another night of losing for the GOP. Meet Republicans who actually know how to win. One Democrat says Biden should drop out. Ukraine's president is getting more cringey. And a perfect cherry on the top of a hot mess of a political party.

...

Chris Wray says BOLO for terrorists. Mike Johnson's plan for Israel aid. DeSantis is the most-attacked candidate. Elon Musk on what makes George Soros so effective (for evil). And leave the old guy alone.

Netanyahu says the war against Hamas is one of absolute victory. Biden talks about AI talking about him. Mike Johnson says a subpeona for Hunter is on the table. And commemorating Reformation Day.

Is Israel getting serious in Gaza? Disbanding pro-Hamas student groups is a no-brainer. Mike Pence's furrowed brow is leaving the race. Trump says you're a loser if you want him to follow through on promises. More on the Maine shooter. And the difference between grace and absolution.

...

Another mass shooting, this time in Maine. House Speaker Johnson giveth, and taketh away. Sununu just wants to win. And three options for a Gen Z young woman.

...

...

...

...

...

More Americans confirmed murdered by Hamas, along with other disturbing reports. We're either weeping with joy over murdered innocents, or we want to bomb Iran. Moral clarity is in short supply.

Israel fights back. RFK Jr. runs as an independent. Happy international lesbian day from the United Nations. Trump talks about an actor who said nice things about him. And a word about worry from John MacArthur.

Unthinkable evil played out before our eyes in Israel. Iran is likely behind if, with an assist from D.C. What this means going forward.

Jim Jordan and Steve Scalise seem to be the leader in the clubhouse for Speaker of the House. Donald Trump is Very Mad In New York. DeSantis gets it on illegal immigration. Rishi Sunak gets a helmet sticker. Tucker Carlson tells a story.

All of the updates from a crazy day in Congress. Order and sanity reigns in Florida. A stupid gag order from a stupid judge. The gestapo comes to Massachusetts. And Tim Cook speaks with forked tongue.

Donald Trump is once again the target of another unfair investigation, and is once again putting a target on his back thank to his unkept promises. Find somebody who looks at you the way Lindsey Graham looks at piles of dead bodies in eastern Europe. We have to burn coal in order to stop using coal. And in Philly: those with ears, let them hear.

...

...

Bella joins the A.M. Update for a super duper serious recap of a super duper serious debate.

Three stories broke late in the day on Tuesday. Canada's parliament speaker resigns. DeSantis on what he'll do at the border. Gavin Newsom is running (probably). James Clapper need not worry about prison. Target closes stores due to retail theft. And when wicked behavior happens, call it out.

The debate is on. Donald Trump gets booed in South Carolina. Justin Trudeau did Nazi that coming. American cities are doing great. And the sleep-walking American right doesn't know what time it is.

Fridays are like a box of chocolates...you never know what you're gonna get.

Merrick Garland tries the "I don't remember" defense when it comes to Hunter Biden. Janet Yellen has no clue why Americans are pessimistic about the economy. Trump goes to Iowa. DeSantis goes to Texas. And the portrait of what Progressivism does to your soul.

...

The House Speaker shares his thoughts on the GOP primary. DeSantis responds. Kansas opts for sanity. And Trump had a very, very bad week.

Trump has redefined MAGA, sadly. DeSantis on his faith, and why he can't understand leadership without it. Ken Paxton is acquitted. Some supposed Whitmer kidnap plotters acquitted, as well. Chip Roy drops some truth bombs. And why it's harder to make distinctions between the right and left in America.

Fridays are like a box of chocolates...you never know what you're gonna get.

...

...

...

The Trump campaign fumbles in Iowa. Another Romneyswamy update. Gavin Newsom doesn't say no to running for POTUS (but doesn't say yes either). Another win for free speech in Missouri v. Biden. And remembering 9/11.

Fridays are like a box of chocolates on the AM Update...

Georgia's attorney general is fighting fire with fire. Donald Trump says he'll take the stand in court. Contrasting styles of COVID leadership. The ADL needs to change its name. John Kennedy embarasses a Biden judicial nominee. And we've become numb to what so-called "science" has become.

Donald Trump may be inching closer to sanity when it comes to the COVID jab. Joe Biden doesn't know what he's saying, ever, and that's an evergreen tweet. Massachusetts calls up the National Guard to deal with illegals. Chinese tourists make excellent spies. Dr. Phil on why American families are growing extinct. And what Bill Maher gets wrong on transgenderism vs. homosexuality.

DeSantis pushes back on the climate scam. Serious funding issues for Trump. Tucker Carlson thinks Trump should've debated and also says he's too old to be POTUS. Fauci gets wrecked on CNN. Bill Maher on the trans phenomenon. And a 29 year old, single TikToker tries to flex, and it backfires.

...

The J6 D.C. trial date is set. Florida prepares for Idalia. White House confirms newest push for the COVID jabs. One sheriff who "gets it" on guns. Biden IRS whistleblower on just how deep the crime family rabbit hole goes. Mrs. American 2023 is special. And a rich man north of Richmond.

Donald Trump's mugshot is doing massive fundraising. Vivek feels very strongly about every side of every issue. Another example of why the media is the enemy of the people. Global warming cultist projecteth much. Oliver Anthony's confusing statement. And social media isn't real life.

Fridays are like a box of chocolates...

The more memorable moments from the debate and a one-woman focus group.

It's debate day. Tomorrow is arraignment groundhog day. Vivek is lying again. COVID mandates are coming back, because why not. And I make the case that Donald Trump only hired the best people.

Hawaii's governor says around 100 are dead with over 1,000 unaccounted for after the Maui wildfire disaster. DeSantis hits Trump for absconding on the debates. Remember "lock her up?" And make sure your school principal isn't like this one.

..

Fridays are like a box of chocolates on the A.M. Update...you never know what you're gonna get.

Trump promises to finally unleash the Kraken. DeSantis responds to the latest sham indictment. John Kennedy on Bidenomics. Associated Press, doctors mystified at growing heart issues. American Indian group wants to bring back the Washington Redskins. And the key to Oliver Anthony's meteoric rise.

Donald Trump was indicted once more; this time in Georgia. Trump rips the Biden administration's handling of Maui. DeSantis is the most-attacked candidate in the presidential race, by far. The Great Prevaricator is back at it. RFK Jr. drops an astonishing claim about what's really going on in Ukraine. And one issue nobody is talking about.

The System continues to play chess. Super happy fun times at the state fair. Ron Johnson with perhaps the boldest postmortom on COVID. And Vivek isn't who you think he is.

Fridays are like a box of chocolates...you never know what you're gonna get.

...

A special election issue that would've made it harder to kill babies goes down in flames. Trump on the campaign trail. Suspected cartel gunmen cross illegally into the U.S. Southwest Airlines gets a spanking. And this guy's face will be on America's epitaph.

Liars lie, and slandereres slander. Trump says he didn't get the wall built. Gold Star families speak on the Afghanistan withdrawal. And San Francisco can rot.

What does trump believe about 2020, anyway? On the campaign trail, DeSantis doesn't sweat insults while Trump has thoughts on showers and Lindsey Graham. Feinstein represents millions of people, but not herself. The trajectory of the U.S. debt is AWESOME. Al Sharpton lowers our IQ. And my thoughts on the latest, soulless round of college athletic conference realignment.

Fridays (in this case Thursdays) are like a box of chocolates...you never know what you're gonna get.

Indictment #4 on Trump and January 6th comes on the same day Fitch Ratings says they downgraded the U.S.'s debt rating because of January 6th. An aggressive executive order in Oklahoma thanks to Governor Kevin Stitt. Another bomb from DeSantis in his interview with Bret Baier. And why there must be a reckoning on COVID.

Former Biden family friend spills the beans. DeSantis unveils his declaration of economic independence, and shines on Bret Baier's show. Newest PAC financial updates. Chinese lab found in Fresno County, California. A word from Chieftess Elizabeth Warren. And Neil DeGrasse Tyson: astrophysicist who moonlights as a high priest.

Trump gets new charges in the Florida grand jury investigation. Meanwhile, his PAC has burned through at least $40 million in legal expenses. Contrasting energy levels at the Lincoln Dinner in Iowa. The consequences of poor voting. Biden acknowledges 7th grandchild for the first time. Megyn Kelly on the personal side of Ron DeSantis. And I wanna be like this 97 year old.

Fridays are like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get...

Hunter Biden runs into a roadblock. Mitch McConnell needs a reboot. Fed raises interest rates again. Chip Roy takes a flamethrower to Mayorkas. And Donald Trump crosses a line in his latest smear.

UPS strikes a deal with its union, saving more supply chain issues (for now). McCarthy says impeachment is still on the table for Joe Biden, and he really means it this time. Obama's personal chef mysteriously drowns. Tom Cotton, Ukraine whore. A look at just how far San Francisco has fallen. And life will be on the ballot in Ohio in November.

Greg Abbott finally shows some spine. Derek Chauvin is headed to SCOTUS. RFK Jr. is a populist, which is probably why he's toast in the Dem primary. More Disney malfeasance. Why getting rid of asylums was a mistake. And another reminder that the system hates Donald Trump, but fears Ron DeSantis.

Trump's trial date has been set in the classified documents case. Kamala Harris was some abject lies about Florida. The big pharma/public health revolving door. Pro-life laws need enforcement. Phil Murphy thinks keeping parents in the loop is evil. And a new pet peeve, apparently.

Fridays are like a box of chocolates...

IRS whistleblower #2 doesn't fit the profile the Democrats expected. No more funding to the Wuhan lab, but another $1.3 billion to Ukraine. Biden is just a kid to Nancy Pelosi. And the sprint towards the ash heap of history will be seen and felt in areas we always took for granted.

Donald Trump says he's about to be indicted -- again. DeSantis had an incredibly solid performance on CNN. He aslo unveiled his plan to de-wokeify the military, on a day filled with examples of a woke military. Biden falls asleep. A story to watch on the genital mutilation-for-profit front. The most dramatic campaign launch announcement ever? And AI in politics is here -- time to understand what that means.

Those numbers don't mean what the Biden admin thinks they mean. Dispatches from Kamala's brain. Jayapal, Bush race to see who's most stupid. DeSantis changes his media strategy. Trump is OK with The Swamp's plan to build the FBI a new HQ in D.C. Sotomayor got rich somehow. And the third reich blushes.

What a weekend it was, and Aaron does his best to unpack every major storyline from the GOP presidential politics weekend that was.

NATO bucks greenshirtbro. Nikki Haley wants a nuclear holocaust. Trump advisor says the former prez won't debate. DeSantis with the most succinct summation of where we are. Escapades at Columbia University. And an Operation Gavin Newsom update.

.

Sending weapons of indiscriminate destruction to Ukraine because they're "running low on ammunition." A win for sanity in Tennessee. KJP refuses to answer whether the White House white stuff belonged to the Bidens. Casey DeSantis goes to Iowa solo. Tucker Carlson with new revelations about January 6th. And pray for more Caseys and fewer Lauras.

Fridays are like a box of chocolates...you never know what you're gonna get.

The Biden White House won't be able to figure out who brought cocaine in -- shucks! They're really good at cracking down on your freedom of speech rights, though. Tranny terror update. DeSantis and suburban women. Your feel-good story of the day. And it's not that female athletes are bad -- it's just that nobody cares.

A potentially major blow against big government and big tech collusion against your freedom of speech. Everybody knows whom that cocaine belongs to. Incidental conservatism is the best conservatism. On the campaign trail, DeSantis wonders why he should be loyal to Trump, South Carolinians boo Lindsey Graham, and Trump brags about ceding his government to Fauci. Generation of wussies update. The DeSantis campaign made all the right people angry. And why The System no longer fears Trump.

Fridays are like a box of chocolates.

What the heck is Bidenomics? DeSantis channels his inner Ron Swanson. Trump on leaked on audio. Checking back in on Joe. Another astounding survey from Pew. Where were Dana Carvey and David Spade in 2021? And Paul Ryan makes an in-kind contribution to Donald Trump.

IRS Biden whistleblower #2. House subcommittee finds CISA basically policed Americans' speech online. DeSantis rips Trump. MSNBC and BlackRock tell you whom they fear.

Putin speaks. DeSantis says the rules of engagement at the southern border need to be changed. A SUMMER of pride, according to Dick Levine. Eric Adams blasts BLM. Crack, prostitutes, and shady business deals: a story of paternal love. RFK Jr. and Bill Maher. Be thankful you're not this guy. And one conservative Twitter trope that needs to die.

The coup that wasn't. Hunter schmoozes in D.C., after getting slapped on the wrist. The Friday news dumps. DeSantis, Trump at the Faith and Freedom Coalition. Donations to Trump's campaign are increasingly being used to cover legal expenses. And one tweet that perfectly sums up how deep The Sytem's rabbit hole of corruption goes.

Fridays are like a box of chocolates....

The Human Rights Campaign doesn't know what humans are. Congressman gets testy with former Special Counsel John Durham. Rightwing women are more attractive than leftwing women, according to a study. And something I heard the other night disturbed me. Also, a cameo from a special guest.

Hunter Biden is a sweetheart. The Trump trial is set, maybe. BMI is racist. And Mike Pence might be a son of the devil.

Trump had himself an interview with Fox News. Antony Blinken reiterates the United States' stance on Taiwan. A $250,000 saltwater bath. Maryland's governor seems to think gay porn and black American history go hand-in-hand. Dispatches from MSNBC. Yosemite is perverted now. And the White House can say anything about anything because they basically control everything.

A truly revealing moment went down this weekend for the American biomedical and health establishment this weekend. From Fetterman to Biden to Kamala, a major update on Democrats' relationship with the English language. Protestors envelop Dodger Stadium. Focus on the Family gets one right. And nothing is a silver bullet against Trump.

Fridays are like a box of chocolates...

Come for the already mediocre podcast, stay for the car ride. Are Republicans in D.C. actually serious about going after the Biden crime family? DeSantis knocks Trump on his SCOTUS picks. Granholm lied about her investments. Anthony Bass got what he deserved. And momma says law is as law does.

You will bow before the rainbow bunny, and you'll like it. Trump in North Carolina, DeSantis in Oklahoma. Another mysterious fire causes more major headaches. George Soros passes his billion dollar societal hatchet. Get the heck out of California. Some good news out of Pennsylvania. And Rick Warren chooses the path of destruction.

Fridays are like a box of chocolates.

Mike Pence is running for president, and he has about the same chances as North Dakota's governor. The latest DOJ plot against Donald Trump is coming down the pike, maybe. Trump hates Big Pharma, except when he doesn't. Josh Hawley owns a Biden judge nominee. Yellen says it's time to raise taxes. Katie Hobbs is a-OK with porn being filmed in classrooms. A pro-life testimony. And crack pipes aren't public health.

James Comer provides more details on why he's pursuing contempt of congress charges against FBI director Chris Wray. Chris Christie decided long ago to be "big." The Pentagon is clueless why Russia would blow up a dam, while the CIA is confident Ukraine was responsible for the Nordstream sabotage. Tucker returns. More insight into J6 thanks to newly-released police security footage. Checking in on Joe Biden. America does indeed have blasphemy laws.

Three Democrats, three takes on illegals. Tim Scott goes on The View. Sununu is a su-no-no on running for POTUS. Meanwhile, on Dr. Phil. And Apple's latest tech is weird and scary, or not, or maybe.

DeSantis wraps up his first campaign tour, and picks up an endorsement. Joe Biden's CDC pick is on-brand and perfect for today's standards of public health. The Land of Enchantment is under a fresh curse. This mom was sued by a teacher's union for daring to ask what her five year old would be learning. Target's stock downgraded by JPMorgan. YouTube does an about-face. Kirsten Powers goes from writing books about leftist censorship to yearning for leftist censors. Unexpected commentary from an unexpected source. And the difference between cultists and supporters.

Dawn dish soap can get bent. Pride literally came before the fall for Joe Biden. Donald Trump's plan for a birthday party at the Iowa State Fair. Another COVID retrospective. My best, worst, and funniest of the week.

Welcome to June: LIFE MONTH. The Biden-McCarthy debt ceiling capitulation passes the US House. DeSantis hits back at Trump, and his campaign releases a devastating Trump/Fauci montage. John Kirby is incredulous, oh no. John Kerry confirms the climate cult is made up of genocidal maniacs. What should be the biggest story in America is happening in South Dakota. The GOP is getting more godless. Target has given millions to groomers, what a surprise. Project Veritas sues James O'Keefe. And my thoughts on The Chosen pride flag escapade.

The House Freedom Caucus is really, really mad, and they have a right to be. DeSantis hosts his first event in Iowa, and his wife is the campaign's not-so secret weapon. Meanwhile, in Trumpworld. Asa Hutchinson thinks the audience of The View is his target demo. James Comey Should be rotting in prison. Chick fil A does the sieg heil to DEI. Boycotting Target is literally terrorism, says MSNBC. And a plea rather than a polemic on Aaronalysis.

Tale as old as time: Republicans cave. Ron DeSantis & Donald Trump's Memorial Day messages. Lindsey Graham's newest fetish. Target's bomb threats actually came from rainbow jihadists. The Texas House of Representatives impeaches Attorney General Ken Paxton. And Ted Cruz needs to fire an intern.

A Memorial Day special on two conscientious objectors you may not have heard of.

DeSantis is setting records left and right, and smacking Trump. The IRS/Hunter Biden whistleblower comes forward. Jerry Nadler is one of hundreds of fools on Capitol Hill. Best, Worst, and Funniest things I heard this week.

Ron DeSantis makes it official. Jordan Neely's uncle arrested. BLM on the verge of bankruptcy. Listen to a pro-aborts change their minds in real time. And Donald's gonna get dirty.

DeSantis gets set to make his announcement, while Democrats mark him as their #1 threat. Democrat congresswomen threaten violence over the debt ceiling "fight." Deep thoughts with the Biden administration. The singularity of the white, woke woman. Target rushes to avoid a "Bud Light situation." And why DeSantis is right to make his announcement on Twitter.

Tim Scott makes it official. Somebody didn't slip Joe Biden's daily lithium into his morning pudding. Roy Cooper declares the will of the people a state emergency. A pair of interesting developments in the Big Sky state. Target partners with Satan. Fox is just another woke megacorp. More on Tucker Carlson's ouster. Gorsuch torches government pandemic response. And if Jim Carrey converted, he doesn't have much spiritual fruit to show for it, sadly.

Dispatches from three red state legislatures. The FBI strips the cloths off of dissidents' children. RFK Jr. endorses Bitcoin. Ron DeSantis takes a subtle swipe at Trump on the jabs. Rejoice, for the WNBA season has tipped off. And memo to Tim Scott: 2004 called and wants its talking points back.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz confirms slavery is still very popular amongst Democrats. An ominous economic marker. A major development in the Maricopa county elections case. Biden confirms once more he doesn't call the shots. Elon wants somebody competent in the White House. The youth would give up the right to vote in exchange for TikTok sticking around. And don't let Chris Cuomo get away with what he's pulling.

DeSantis claps back at Trump on the life issue. Lefties are just saying out loud whom they fear the most. We're miles away from the "privacy of what people do in their own bedrooms." Riley Gaines on the real impact of men in women's sports. John Fetterman has thoughts about something. Obama emerges from his spider hole. And why my thinking on the 2nd Amendment has changed.

Why the Durham probe proves Barack Obama was the most effective president in American history. Life came at Eric Adams fast. Miller Lite wokeified itself before Bud Light. Lila Rose owns a buff pseudo-man. Pfizer's chief horse doctor is concerned about his brand's perception. And why Ron DeSantis needs to campaign with live alligators.

DeSantis upstages Trump in Iowa. Joe Biden is only sentient when he's articulating evil. Good is evil, and evil is good in NYC. The great replacement gives and takes away in Chicago. "Never forget" has new meaning after an astonishing montage. NIAID scientist slams federal pandemic response. The kids were always the endgame, example 666. And why Twitter won't reall change with the new CEO.

Fridays are like a box of chocolates...

Representative James Comer says he has hard proof then-VP Biden sold his influence to overseas corrupticrats. Senator Ron Johnson says he has hard proof Hunter Biden hired sex-trafficked prostitutes. Donald Trump goes to New Hampshire. Ron DeSantis signs the toughest anti-illegal immigration bill in the country. California Governor Gavin Newsom is a "no" on reparations. Accidental honesty on the border crisis from congressman Hank Johnson. And the collision of the climate cult and the broader social justice cult.

A New York federal jury says Donald Trump defamed E. Jean Carroll, but also decided Carroll lied about Trump. Tucker Carlson takes his talents to Twitter. Biden has nothing to say about the border. Nikki Haley believes in backroom deals with woke mega corporations. A major loss for the Trump campaign, potentially. Trump is a Nazi insurrectionist, until he's not. Can you be racist towards white people? And a word on Kevlar and armed security: Tucker Carlson is gonna need 'em.

The border is in absolute crisis, again. We're being led to believe the Allen, Texas shooter was a Hispanic nazi. Raising the debt ceiling is just like making your car payment, White House says. Senate Rs say they'll not support any debt ceiling inrease that doesn't cut spending, lol. Budweiser CEO says you're the problem if you don't want mentally ill dudes on your beer can. Another fake rape allegation ruins a young man's life. And why you should never, ever fear the left.

Two Texas tragedies leave more questions than answers. DeSantis wraps the Florida legislative session. Trump in peak form in deposition video. Axios says they have a scoop on Tucker Carlson's next steps. Speaking of, Carlson told Tulsi Gabbard a sitting congressman told him the NSA reads his texts. One headline that sums up 2023 American culture. A palate-cleanser from Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker. And Bill Barr is a duplicitous fool.

Friday's are like a box of chocolates, and that's especially true today...

James Comer and Chuck Grassley say they have documents proving then-VP Joe Biden peddled influence in exchange for money. Another regional bank is about to fail, maybe. It's about to be riot season, again. The nation's 8th-graders are getting dumber on history. The fed raises interest rates. MSNBC owns Fox News. The Freedom Caucus and Progressive Caucus team up.

We're sending 1,500 troops to the border (for administrative purposes, of course). We still don't know what Karine Jean-Pierre got her immigration statistics. Another W for DeSantis in Florida. Incidental conservatism from an unlikely source. Fox News accidentally made Tucker Carlson more likeable. Ted Cruz crushes Senate Democrats' "judicial ethics" narrative. Donald Trump says he'll seize the endowments. And why a couple of leftwing news mainstays are going kaput.

The nation experienced the second-largest bank failure yesterday, and nobody cares. Another day, another mysterious balloon. KJP wants you to know the border is super duper secure, especially after a twice-deported illegal murdered five, including a child. Florida enacts execution for child rapists. Bud Light sales are still down. Truth bombs from an unlikely source. It's just demonic, bro: Nebraska update. And lockdown fanatics haven't found Jesus and humility -- it's actually the opposite.

Samuel Alito thinks he knows who leaked the Dobbs opinion. Jeffrey Epstein may have had a meeting after his conviction as a sex offender with the current head of the CIA. Pope Francis spits some spicy truths in Hungary. Ron DeSantis embarrasses some goober in the international press. Good Trump, bad Trump. Elon Musk on the "woke mind virus." And why men need accountability.

Reading between the lines of Tucker Carlson's statement following his ouster from Fox News. Nikki Haley is Greg Abbott in drag. Disney's last-ditch effort to lash out at DeSantis. Chinese yuan on the rise. Megyn Kelly should be wanted for murder. Kamala Harris subscribes to the Michael Scott School of Oration. A fictional, autistic, brilliant doctor can't escape the DEI black hole. And it was never just millennials or zoomers who were snowflakes.

Joe Biden wants to "finish the job" by gaining a second term, and his message is crafted specifically against Donald Trump. Speaking of Trump, he's terrified of primary debates. Fauci admits masks are useless. Civilizational decline in three stories, plus one.

Fox News shows their most bankable star the door. Ray Epps is a poor, victimized insurrectionist? Fidel Castro's bastard child is a master sociopath. A truth bomb from Australia. And one scenario that explains Tucker Carlson's ouster -- that nobody's talking about.

Trump lives in a pigsty, but he thinks it's a great pigsty. DeSantis takes his first overt dig at Trump. Sudan in turmoil. Democrats go on the record as anti-woman. Alec Baldwim could literally shoot someone on 5th Avenue... Dueling demonic manifestos. A coup for birthing units. And Tucker Carlson on what's really going on in America, and why the audience he addresses needed to hear it.

Could a yet-unnamed IRS whistleblower spell trouble for the Biden? Donald Trump is now, effectively, pro-choice. The biggest rocket ever. ABC News says Alex Jones was right. No self-awareness award goes to Brian Stelter. Pastor John MacArthur nails it on what gender ideology in schools is all about. The worst, best, and funniest thing I heard this week.

RFK Jr. drops bombs in his official announcement speech for POTUS. Public health experts continue to be absolute morons. MTG puts something on the record. John Fetterman's triumphant return to Capitol Hill. The White House invites insurrectionists to the White House, not families of victims of the tranny terror attack. With censors like these, why ban TikTok? Disney pride after dark...what could go wrong? And Elon Musk still hasn't found what he's looking for.

American Airlines got 999 problems and had another one yesterday. Mysterious parking garage collapse in NYC. Former DNI Ratcliffe says Fauci obfuscated the origins of the pandemic because he was funding the Wuhan lab. Trump tries to smack DeSantis. Why can't everybody be as bold as DeSantis?

China was running a secret police station in NYC, because why not? How a CBDC could be introduced. Some good news on the pro-life front. Another W for DeSantis. If there were only some place we could lock up criminals. Elon Musk says Twitter was open for viewing by the U.S. government before he took over. The U.N. wants to decriminalize basically everything. Dylan Mulvaney gets uncomfortable in an elevator. Little Somalia gets bigger. And the latest in the anti-human campaign known as global warming.

Don Trump Jr. and certain elements of the GOP are trying to squash the otherwise successful (to this point) boycott of Bud Light. A church in California is ordered to pay $1.2 million for flouting mind-numbing COVID restrictions. Piers Morgan & Rishi Sunak: allies of sanity? Stupid, stupid energy policy in Texas.

Rumors are swirling Mitch McConnell is retiring in some form. Pentagon psy-op update. Biden babbles. Ron Paul was right about everything. Worst thing I heard this week. BASED Barnaby. And the funniest thing I heard this week.

WaPo claims to have found the Pentagon Leaker. 18k head of cattle perished in Texas this week. Tim Scott for POTUS (hopefully) goes over like a wet fart in church. Joe Biden loves his granddaughters (except for that one). Susan Rice pulls a stat from a dark, stinky place. Piers Morgan vs. a tranny "ally." And why do we lose to pencil-necked twerps?

Alvin Bragg is a piece of... Trump goes on Tucker Carlson. Yellen says we'll fund Ukraine forever. Nothing says "green revolution" like getting rid of the cleanest energy. Bill Lee surrenders before it's too late. Tiffany Dover resurfaces. RFK Jr. could be a thing. A sociopath in Tennessee. And that's a President.

Joe Biden signs legislation officially ending the COVID-19 national emergency. He also says something about eggs and running in 2024. DoD has no clue whether there's more classified documents out there. Dispatches from Truth Social. Jon Stewart embarrasses a bureaucrat. And a superfecta of late republic, deep state B.S.

A supposed leak from the Pentagon means there's a spy or a hacker within the upper echelons of the Pentagon. Riley Gaines enjoys the blessings of liberty. Ron DeSantis bucks Republicans. Greg Abbott must pardon a U.S. Army sergeant. And enough with Trump = Jesus.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is running for President against Joe Biden. Meet a disillusioned Democrat in North Carolina. NPR has a hissy fit. A foursome of evil and hate at the White House. Canada enacts sharia law (or a form of it). Massie endorses DeSantis. Some good news, for once. And a YouTuber learns a valuable lesson.

Trump gets arraigned in NYC, but nothing about this or him or any other Republican may matter because Wisconsin may be off the table. Billions more to Ukraine as Finland joins NATO. RFK Jr. nails it. Janet Yellen says the quiet part out loud. Fauci promises another pandemic. Mental illness in the land of enchantment. And stop framing progressives the way we see the world.

Trump goes to NYC. Spy balloons spy. An update from Nashville. Disney tries to pull a fast one on DeSantis. Mayorkas can't be bothered with the border -- and that's by design. Two old bags shoot the breeze. Dick Levine update. Rosaria Butterfield sets the example. And I don't understand the protestors in New York City.

More pain at the pump is on the way thanks to Saudi Arabia. Asa Hutchinson runs for POTUS. DeSantis covers a ton of ground in New York. Banning stoves is broke -- banning lightbulbs is woke. Winsome Sears has a future in politics. Confronting evil vs. elevating the good, true, and beautiful isn't an either/or proposition.

Manhattan grand jury indicts Trump. State Department tells Americans to leave Russia. Q-Anon shaman gets out of prison. Lloyd Austin doesn't wanna talk about drag queen story hour. Lindsay Graham don't know nothin' about no bill he co-sponsored. 200 proof heresy in Dallas. "Portlandia" saw the future.

They caught one of the guys responsible for firebombing Wisconsin Family Action. The Manhattan grand jury goes on hiatus. Four stories from the U.S. House. James O'Keefe is back. Joy Behar says the quiet part out loud. And we need to talk about Vivek.

Another harrowing anniversary. More troubling analysis of jab data. Fauci goes to college. Trump says Chris Wray is great maybe who knows. The trans mob was out in force in Pittsburgh. And never is the right time to despair

A mentally ill woman in Tennessee commits a hate crime against Christians. A staffer of Rand Paul attacked in broad daylight on the streets of D.C. Good red state, bad red state update. Iowa and New Hampshire polling. A terrible montage. Why tone never matters, and never did when it comes to transgenderism.

Severe weather and bad water. Mr. Trump goes to Waco. DeSantis dishes on Ukraine. What do socks have to do with anything? No private jets for John Kerry, no really, seriously, no private jets. Fettermanwatch 2023. A tale of two state legislators. And why you should never be afraid of otherizing groomers.

Ron DeSantis yucks it up and holds his ground with Piers Morgan. TikTok CEO is a smug pawn of the CCP. A rare win for sanity -- and women in sports. DOJ spies on the Proud Boys' defense. Ray Epps throws a fit. Buttigieg on railroads. Banning gas stoves is a conspiracy theory (except when it's not). And a rare heartwarming story.

Trump may or may not get indicted today or tomorrow or next week, but at least he fund raised a bunch of coin. Fed raises interest rates, again. Moderna CEO skewered by Rand Paul. A true axis of evil forms, military doctors wanna trans 7 year olds. John Kennedy embarrasses a Biden nominee. And chaos reigned this week.

An indictment, but no handcuffs for Trump? DeSantis doesn't take the bait. Biden don't know much about a Wuhan lab, but he does know how to trans it. Yellen says everything is fine, guys. Two Israeli politicians want to outlaw proselytization. Drag is holy. A triumph in post-racism America. And Romney, McCain, and Bush seem like a weird, fever dream.

Ron DeSantis's reaction to the looming (maybe) arrest of Donald Trump is not terrible, but not sufficient. Xi and Putin are butt buddies. Biden vetoes, signs bills. Fauci goes to the hood. Meet a terrible attempt at heresy. Meet a great example of pure religion. The worst take on the Trump indictment fiasco.
