Trump forgets who is President, blames Hamas terror on "STOLLEN" election
Former President Trump made a pathetic attempt to blame the Hamas-Israel situation on the 2020 US election that he claims was stolen from him. Trump implied that Hamas’s attack would not have occurred had he won instead of Biden. Trump posted to Truth Social, “THE ATTACK ON ISRAEL WOULD NEVER HAVE HAPPENED, ZERO CHANCE, IF THE ELECTION OF 2020 WAS NOT RIGGED AND STOLLEN. IT SHOWS THE WORLD HOW IMPORTANT ELECTIONS ARE. IRAN WAS BROKE AND TALKING, NOW THEY ARE RICH AND WATCHING, WAITING TO MAKE THEIR MOVE, AND IT WILL BE A BIG ONE! HOW COULD CROOKED JOE BIDEN, THE WORST AND MOST INCOMPETENT PRESIDENT IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES, ALLOW THIS TO HAPPEN? . . .” Trump is willing to tie anything and everything to the 2020 election in an effort to make world events center around him. His social media post lacks factual basis and risks exacerbating the complexity of the conflict while misleading his cultish followers.
My audience RESCUED ME from cancellation over Hamas attack!
David's stance on the Gaza-Israel situation has encountered criticism, prompting some in the audience to cancel their memberships. However, in the past week, an impressive 400 new members have joined, demonstrating their support in response to these cancellations. David remains steadfast in his commitment to a progressive perspective, clarifying his non-support for Benjamin Netanyahu and Israeli settlement policies. He has responded to calls for more comprehensive discussions regarding the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, providing historical context and nuance. Our dedication to delivering an informed, nuanced, and progressive perspective on the Gaza-Israel situation remains unshaken despite audience criticism and disagreements. It is encouraging to see the majority of our audience embrace this approach, with some even contributing to the show through their membership program.

Trump admits defeat, surrenders bogus lawsuit against Michael Cohen
Former personal attorney of Donald Trump, Michael Cohen, has achieved a significant legal victory as Trump dropped his $500 million lawsuit against Cohen. Trump had been suing Cohen, claiming breaches of attorney-client privilege and defamation, but it appears the lawsuit will not be pursued further. The key reason for this decision was that Trump was scheduled to sit for a deposition in the Cohen case, a situation he sought to avoid at all costs. Michael Cohen had predicted that Trump would not allow himself to be deposed, and his prediction proved accurate. Although the exact reasons for Trump's withdrawal from the lawsuit remain undisclosed, the fear of what potentially damaging information could emerge during a deposition appears to have played a significant role. The legal battle between Trump and Cohen represents another setback for the former president, who, at least for now, will not be receiving any financial compensation from Cohen.

Hillary CORRECTLY calls for DEPROGRAMMING of Trump cult, MAGA EXPLODES!
Hillary Clinton's long-held concerns regarding the Trump movement have recently garnered attention in a discussion about the deprogramming of Trump supporters. Over the years, Clinton has consistently warned about the influence of this political phenomenon. The conversation centered on the challenge of extracting individuals from this environment, emphasizing trust-building, creating a safe space for questioning beliefs, and the importance of empathy and patience in the deprogramming process. This discussion harkens back to Clinton's earlier characterization of half of Trump supporters being “deplorable” which was initially widely criticized but since has proven accurate. Clinton has proven to be prescient and her longstanding concerns about the Trump movement's impact have proven correct, raising questions about the future of the Trump cult and the methods that might be needed for individuals to disengage from it.
