Trump INCOHERENT in first interview as president, OFF THE RAILS
Donald Trump’s interview with Sean Hannity was a soft, uncritical exchange focused on blaming Joe Biden for global issues and defending Trump’s controversial pardons. Trump criticized Biden’s use of preemptive pardons while portraying himself as a victim of political persecution. The interview underscored Trump’s ongoing narrative of grievance and his plans to exploit presidential powers.
Freed rioters planning revenge, buying many guns
Donald Trump pardoned over 1,500 January 6th convicts, including Enrique Tarrio and Jacob Chansley, who are now promoting extremist rhetoric and plans for retribution. Reports suggest Trump may invite them to the White House, signaling his celebration of their actions.
From yesterday’s show:
Vivek Ramaswamy ALREADY getting fired from Trump & Elon's DOGE
Vivek Ramaswamy is being sidelined from Trump’s unrealistic DOGE initiative, which aims to cut $2 trillion in government spending but lacks any serious plan. Elon Musk, Trump’s favored ally, has taken control, leaving Vivek to pursue a gubernatorial run in Ohio. The chaotic leadership and vague goals highlight Trump’s reliance on flashy names over meaningful policy.
From yesterday’s show:
Trump launches obvious money laundering scam currency
Donald Trump has launched a meme coin, adding to his history of questionable ventures like NFTs and steaks, with the coin quickly surging in value to over $21 and a $14 billion market cap within hours. Critics suggest the project raises serious questions about financial transparency, with speculation about foreign money laundering and Trump’s personal control over the venture.

David Sir, I enjoyed your conversation with lawmaker from Canada. Sorry I don’t remember his name; perhaps I did not hear it often enough. He & you talked about healthcare. That made me remember the article “Where have all the Doctors Gone? Finding a physician is Harder…”in January/February issue of AARP Bulletin. Find it at your public library or maybe online. Lots of important info in there regarding our future in the US healthcare system. Sounded like Canada is experiencing some of the same problems. Thanks for working so diligently to inform us & make us think critically. Judith in Arlington Heights , IL
What's most disturbing (about the pardoned rioters) is that they will hunt down Mike Pence and Nancy Pelosi and complete the job that they started out to do. They will both be killed, and Trump will celebrate that by itself. He will make it a national holiday to reward the rioters.
