A viral YouTube video from RangeDayBro, titled “Kirk Assassination: New Video Evidence Changes Everything!,” has nearly six million views. It claims Charlie Kirk was shot from behind, not the front. The video suggests the neck wound identified as an entry was actually an exit, and points to a blurry object in the background that could be a hidden shooter disguised as a plant. These claims remain unverified and have sparked widespread debate online.

Donald Trump, who criticized Joe Biden for weaponizing the Department of Justice, is now doing exactly what he accused Biden of doing. The DOJ under Trump allies, including Attorney General Pam Bondi, is reportedly moving to indict former FBI Director James Comey for alleged false statements to Congress just days before the statute of limitations expires. Career prosecutors were removed and loyalists installed to accelerate the effort, raising concerns about authoritarian overreach.

A Reuters/Ipsos poll shows Democrats face trust deficits on key issues, while Republicans are more trusted on about two-thirds of topics surveyed. Trump’s approval stands at 41%, with Republicans leading on crime, immigration, the economy, and foreign conflicts. Democrats hold small advantages on health care, women’s rights, and the environment.

A Project Veritas video reportedly shows senior DOJ investigator Glenn Prager claiming, during casual banter, that Trump is withholding Jeffrey Epstein files to protect others, not himself. Prager alleges some victims were paid off and mentions assaults tied to Bill Clinton’s flights, while stating he has no evidence Trump committed these acts.

Adelita Grijalva’s victory in the Arizona special election could advance the push to release the Epstein files. She has pledged to sign a petition that would force the House to vote on the release. With her support, the petition has enough backing to move forward, though procedural delays and political maneuvering could complicate the process.

The Trump White House is also facing controversy over claims that Tylenol during pregnancy increases autism risk. Trump cited a scientist paid $150,000 to testify against Tylenol, whose testimony was dismissed by a federal judge as unreliable. Large-scale studies, including 2.5 million Swedish children, show no link. Dr. Oz has walked back the statements, reaffirming standard guidance that pregnant women should take medication only when necessary, at the lowest effective dose, and under a doctor’s supervision.

On today’s bonus show:

Donald Trump replaced Joe Biden’s portrait in the White House with an auto-pen image. The Trump administration is preparing broad workforce reductions during a potential upcoming government shutdown. And a bronze statue depicting Trump and Jeffrey Epstein as “best friends” briefly appeared near the Capitol, but was quickly removed.
