    Mail-Order Melania: FLOTUS Seeks Asylum From Trump's Epstein Problem

    Epstein isn’t going away—and thanks to Melania Trump’s bizarre press statement, it just hijacked the entire week. What was supposed to be about Iran and a ceasefire is now back to the one story that won’t die: Epstein, power, and the questions still hanging over Donald Trump. Rick Wilson breaks down the PR meltdown, the failed pivots, and why Epstein has become the permanent elephant in the room—because in 2026, this isn’t just a scandal anymore… it’s the whole damn story.•••••Rick Wilson is on X at @TheRickWilson, on Bluesky at @TheRickWilson.bsky.social, and you can check out Rick's Substack at therickwilson.substack.com.

    Bondi, Go F*ck Yourself. Trump's Firing Season Has Begun

    Unlike the Survivors, Bondi couldn't survive Epstein. Pam Bondi is out—and the timing says everything. As the Epstein files resurface and pressure builds around Trump’s inner circle, the infamous “firing season” has officially begun. For this week's Elephant in the Room, Rick breaks down why Bondi got cut loose, what it signals about the escalating Epstein fallout, and how Trump’s pattern of loyalty tests and political purges is playing out in real time. This isn’t damage control—it’s survival mode. And if history tells us anything, Bondi is just the beginning.•••••Rick Wilson is on X at @TheRickWilson, on Bluesky at @TheRickWilson.bsky.social, and you can check out Rick's Substack at therickwilson.substack.com.

    There Will Be Grift: Jeffrey Sonnenfeld Reveals Trump’s 'Mad King' Playbook

    Trump isn’t impulsive. He’s not “just winging it.” According to Jeffrey Sonnenfeld and his new book Trump's Ten Commandments: Strategic Lessons from the Trump Leadership Toolbox, Donald Trump operates on a repeatable, deliberate playbook—ten core behaviors he’s used for decades. What looks like chaos is actually strategy. What feels like a meltdown is often the move itself. In this episode, Rick Wilson and Yale Business School Professor Jeffrey Sonnenfeld break down Trump’s pattern of power: the same tactics, the same outcomes, over and over again. Once you see the playbook, you can’t unsee it.•••••Jeffrey Sonnenfeld is on X at @JeffSonnenfeld, and his new book, ,’Trump's Ten Commandments: Strategic Lessons from the Trump Leadership Toolbox,’ is available now, wherever fine books are sold.  Rick Wilson is on X at @TheRickWilson, on Bluesky at @TheRickWilson.bsky.social, and you can check out Rick's Substack at therickwilson.substack.com.

    Trump is F*cked: It's the Final Countdown

    Trump. MAGA. The GOP. Voters are over it — and the receipts are stacking up. In this episode of The Elephant in the Room, Rick Wilson breaks down the 10 things voters hate most about Donald Trump, the MAGA movement, and today’s Republican Party — from chaos and corruption to delusion, culture war burnout, and a campaign that feels completely out of touch with reality. This is the Elephant in the Room: Trump is losing independents, bleeding suburban voters, and failing the vibe check in 2026. If you want to understand why Trump’s support is cracking, why MAGA is struggling, and what it means for the election, this is the episode. P.S. Oh, and by the way, after this week's election, Trump's representative at Mar-a-Lago is Emily Gregory -- a Democrat and a woman. •••••Rick Wilson is on X at @TheRickWilson, on Bluesky at @TheRickWilson.bsky.social, and you can check out Rick's Substack at therickwilson.substack.com.

    Trump & Epstein's Shared Network Problem: This Isn’t Coincidence Anymore

    The Epstein story just snapped back into focus—and the timing couldn’t be more suspicious. This week, as headlines were dominated by a new war overseas, reports surfaced of three previously unseen interviews tied to one of Trump’s accusers—material that had never been publicly accounted for. Now they’re out, and the questions are stacking fast. Rick Wilson breaks down what’s known, what’s missing, and why this story keeps circling the same tight-knit network of power players who always seem to land on their feet. This isn’t just a scandal—it’s a pattern. Same names. Same circles. Same silence. And once again, the truth is trying to claw its way through.•••••Rick Wilson is on X at @TheRickWilson, on Bluesky at @TheRickWilson.bsky.social, and you can check out Rick's Substack at therickwilson.substack.com.
