    Join our FREE three day activation series and learn how to turn your energy and outrage into action: https://gaialeadershipproject.com/activation-challenge It's Epstein Files Release Day — and after weeks of doom-and-gloom predictions, the DOJ signals a massive document drop is actually happening. In this episode, we walk through what's expected, what the Transparency Act legally requires, what can (and can't) be redacted, and why public pressure has already forced a major accountability moment — no matter how hard powerful people try to spin it. In this episode, we cover: The latest breaking update on the Epstein files release — and what "several hundred thousand documents" could mean Why the Epstein Files Transparency Act limits redactions (and blocks reputation-protection loopholes) What happens 15 days after release: the required list of public figures and dignitaries named in the files New details from House Oversight's photo dump — and what it reveals about the scope of abuse and elite connections Why "nothing ever happens" messaging is propaganda — and how it undermines victims and public accountability A reality check on the Kennedy Center rename/White House plaques — and why some outrage is strategic distraction The surprising conviction of Judge Dugan, what comes next on appeal, and why the fight isn't over How to stay grounded, track real wins, and keep momentum when the news cycle is designed to break you A tough, urgent episode about accountability, narrative warfare, and why disciplined hope matters — especially today.

What followed was a cascade of revelations: a forced appearance, exposed lies, manufactured outrage, and a growing sense of desperation inside the White House. We unpack what really happened, why it matters, and what comes next — while grounding listeners in facts, law, and a much-needed dose of perspective. In this episode, we cover: Why the speech shocked even long-time observers — and what didn't happen that many expected How a hot-mic moment revealed the real reason the speech was given The truth behind the so-called "$1,776 Warrior Bonus" and why veterans are furious What the President can not do — including why nuclear panic is misplaced Why the 25th Amendment is a dead end, and what accountability actually looks like The critical importance of 2026 and how power can still shift Major updates on healthcare, the House, and a devastating attack on trans and non-binary children What to know about the Epstein files ahead of the release deadline Signs of cracks within MAGA — and why there's real reason for hope How to stay informed, grounded, and focused without feeding fear A necessary conversation about power, truth, accountability — and why despair is exactly what authoritarians want.

    BREAKING: Trump's Chief of Staff TELLS ALL and it's NOT PRETTY

    Join our FREE three day activation series and learn how to turn your energy and outrage into action: https://gaialeadershipproject.com/activation-challenge In today's episode, we unpack a stunning breaking scandal involving Trump's chief of staff, Susie Wiles, after reports revealed she gave nearly a year of on-the-record interviews to a Vanity Fair reporter—statements that openly criticize Trump and expose chaos, retaliation, substance use, and internal betrayals at the highest levels of the administration. We explore what these disclosures mean for the stability of the regime, why this kind of breach by a sitting chief of staff is historically rare, and whether Wiles's job can survive the fallout. We also reflect on a devastating weekend of violence and loss, including antisemitic and campus shootings and the murder of Rob Reiner and his wife, followed by widespread condemnation of Trump's response—even from conservative figures who have previously stayed silent. The episode closes with urgent calls for accountability over Pentagon actions under Pete Hegseth and a rare piece of hopeful news: Democratic-led states moving to protect public health infrastructure after federal purges. Key Points: Susie Wiles's recorded Vanity Fair interviews expose deep dysfunction inside Trump's inner circle Historic breach of operational and political norms by a sitting White House chief of staff Trump faces growing public pushback from conservatives after comments on Rob Reiner's death Calls intensify for impeachment over unauthorized military actions under Pete Hegseth California and other states move to preserve public health expertise amid federal rollbacks ⚠️ Content Warning: Discussion of political violence, mass shootings, and loss of life.

    Will Hegseth's "K*LL THEM ALL" Order END HIS CAREER?!

    Join our FREE three day activation series and learn how to turn your energy and outrage into action: https://gaialeadershipproject.com/activation-challenge In today's episode, we begin with the explosive developments surrounding the September 2nd Caribbean boat bombing and the growing controversy over the alleged second "kill order" issued against survivors. We break down what is known, why the legal terminology around "war crimes" is complicated in a non-war context, and how military code, international law, and the chain of command apply. We also examine the political fallout: fractures inside the MAGA bloc, demands for investigations from both House and Senate Armed Services Committees, and the White House's shifting posture as scrutiny intensifies. From possible impeachment proceedings for Pete Hegseth to questions about the DOJ's authority, presidential immunity, and the limits of preemptive pardons, we walk through what accountability could realistically look like — now or under a future administration. Beyond the bombing, we cover: The jurisdictional limits of the International Criminal Court and why a Hague prosecution is unlikely Potential civil avenues for victims' families under customary international law What Trump's late-night Truth Social posting spree does not mean, and why recognizing noise vs. escalation is crucial Major implications of the Tennessee 7th special election The legal challenge to Alina Habba's appointment as Acting U.S. Attorney in New Jersey and what it could mean for ongoing prosecutions As always, we close with concrete action steps, including why calls for impeachment matter even when outcomes are uncertain.

    BREAKING: Trump's DOJ Throws Kristi Noem UNDER THE BUS!

    Join our FREE three day activation series and learn how to turn your energy and outrage into action: https://gaialeadershipproject.com/activation-challenge In today's fast-moving episode of Resistance Live, Elizabeth breaks down explosive new developments on two major legal fronts. First, she unpacks the DOJ's stunning claim that Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem—not DOJ officials—greenlit the defiance of a federal court order that led to the unlawful deportation and torture of over 200 detainees in El Salvador. With contempt hearings looming, Elizabeth explains what this revelation means for Noem, for Judge Boasberg's investigation, and for the growing constitutional crisis inside federal law enforcement. She also covers the breaking news that Fulton County prosecutors are dropping the Trump RICO case, outlining the political and democratic implications—and the few silver linings—that remain after years of work on the fraudulent electors prosecution. Balancing the heavy news, Elizabeth highlights meaningful wins and signals of shift: a major financial penalty upheld against Trump and his attorney, the unexpectedly competitive special election in Tennessee's 7th District, and the New York Times finally acknowledging Trump's declining physical and cognitive state. She also dives into the "We Ain't Buying It" holiday boycott, the economic pressure campaigns emerging nationwide, and the worsening financial landscape facing everyday Americans. As we head into Thanksgiving, Elizabeth closes with a call to stay grounded, resist doom narratives, recognize the organizing and progress happening everywhere, and remain committed to the work ahead.

    A NEW LOW: Trump Calls for Dem Lawmakers to be HANGED?!

    👉Join our FREE three day activation series and learn how to turn your energy and outrage into action: https://gaialeadershipproject.com/activation-challenge In today's episode of Resistance Live, Elizabeth breaks down Trump's latest escalation: openly calling for the execution of several Democratic lawmakers after they reminded military personnel of their duty to the Constitution. She explains why these threats are felonies, why they fall far outside presidential immunity, and how they could constitute impeachable offenses—even as the GOP remains silent. She also explores the political stakes of this moment and what it signals about the ongoing erosion of democratic norms. Elizabeth then turns to major updates on the Epstein Files Transparency Act, now triggering a 30-day countdown to the release of roughly 300,000 pages of documents. She clarifies how the deadlines work, what the attorney general can and cannot withhold, and why the estate continues to produce records. Additional highlights include the CDC's disturbing new vaccine-autism language, Trump's legally doomed executive order aimed at blocking state AI regulations, and a preview of the high-stakes meeting between Trump and New York City mayor-elect Zora Mamdani.

    BREAKING: Senate Dems SELL OUT AMERICAN FAMILIES on ACA Insurance-- NOW WHAT?!

    ➡️ Join our FREE three day activation series and learn how to turn your energy and outrage into action: https://gaialeadershipproject.com/activation-challenge In this urgent episode of Resistance Live, Elizabeth breaks down the Senate's shocking weekend vote to end the government shutdown—exposing why the deal represents a devastating sellout of the Democratic base and millions of Americans who rely on ACA subsidies. She explains how the Senate leadership, particularly Chuck Schumer, engineered a collapse in leverage just days after Democrats' sweeping electoral victories, and why the promise of a mere vote in December leaves families facing skyrocketing premiums or loss of coverage entirely. Elizabeth also digs into the widening rift between House and Senate Democrats, Indivisible's push for new Senate leadership, and the concrete actions listeners must take now to fight back. The episode also covers major developments on SNAP benefits, Mike Johnson's political calculus around recalling the House, and the high-stakes implications for the long-stalled vote on releasing the Epstein files. Elizabeth closes with analysis of Trump's recent federal pardons—including what they do not shield co-conspirators from—and outlines the urgent tasks for organizers and constituents as millions face hunger, loss of healthcare, and growing authoritarian threats. It's an intense, essential briefing on a volatile political moment—and a clear call to action.
