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:

Republicans are starting to tell Donald Trump “No.” At least some of them.

Two Republican senators are going to block every single Trump nominee to the Federal Reserve because of his politicized probe into Jerome Powell.

Then we’re going to talk about maybe one of the most disturbing things you’ll see today, which is Trump’s top defense official melting down on stage and then announcing that Elon Musk’s Grok AI will be inside the Pentagon network. Could this possibly be a good idea?

Karoline Leavitt resurfaces with maybe her worst and most humiliating public appearance yet, admits far more than she probably intended to, including threats, smears, and chilling rhetoric.

We’re also going to look at the slurping. If you don’t know what this is about, it’s disturbing. Make sure you’re not eating during that segment.

And finally, Democratic lawmakers are finally going to move forward to try to impeach Kristi Noem, after disaster after disaster involving the Department of Homeland Security.

All of that and so much more.
