Here’s what we’re talking about today.
This is a quick rundown of the topics we’ll be covering on today’s show. You can hit play to listen, or read the transcript below if that’s more your style.
Transcript:
We will start today with the unbelievable tale of my first colonoscopy. It involves fentanyl, Narcan, and such a perfect score that doctors said, Sir, we’ve never seen anything like this before.
We will then, more seriously, dive into maybe the biggest political disaster for Trump so far, not the tariffs per se, but the rapidly crumbling middle class. The White House insists everything’s great. That didn’t work very well as a strategy for Joe Biden, that’s for sure.
We’ve also got Gavin Newsom pulling off what might be the quietest but most brutal political checkmate of the year, really outmaneuvering Republicans on the House seats.
And then it gets darker, as Donald Trump is reportedly planning a revenge campaign over the Epstein files. Why would he do that if he wanted them released? It doesn’t really make sense, but we will look at it, and Karoline Leavitt is starting to struggle to figure out how to defend all of it in public.
And somehow that’s not even the most corrupt story of the day. We’re also going to talk about Trump caught intervening with Andrew Tate. Yes, that Andrew Tate, the guy I sometimes call Andrew Taint, and Trump is pushing an F-35 deal with Saudi Arabia, while his kids are negotiating lucrative business deals with the exact same regime.
Angry MAGAs are back and trying to destroy the show, but we won’t let them. I’ll go through some of the email with you.
And of course, we are still raising money to feed hungry people up to Thanksgiving Day through the charity Feeding America. Every new membership at joinpakman.com, every new Substack Premium subscription at substack.davidpakman.com—those first payments donated directly to Feeding America.
