Are You There, God? It’s Me, the Constitution.

SCOTUS may be between argument sessions, but the legal news isn’t slowing down. Kate, Melissa, and Leah cover the latest out of Minnesota before touching on the Department of Homeland Security’s troubling use of administrative subpoenas and Jodi Kantor’s reporting on the introduction of non-disclosure agreements to the Supreme Court. Then, some election news: the Tulsi Gabbard-supervised FBI raid on an elections office in Fulton County, Georgia, Trump’s desire to “take over” elections, and an update on the challenge against California’s Proposition 50, Gavin Newsom’s counter to racial gerrymandering in Texas. Finally, Kristi Noem’s attempt to revoke Temporary Protected Status for Haitians gets shot down by the District Court for the District of Columbia, and a smörgåsbord of other legal bits and pieces.

Why Epstein’s Lawyers Went to the CIA

What if Jeffrey Epstein's protection wasn't just about money and connections, but something far more shadowy involving U.S. intelligence agencies? On this explosive episode of the Tara Palmeri Show, Tara examines newly released records showing Epstein's attorneys formally requesting CIA and NSA files to prove his "affiliation" between 1999 and 2011—even after his 2008 conviction—prompting Glomar responses that neither confirm nor deny classified records. The discussion uncovers Epstein's meetings with former CIA Director William Burns, a former clandestine officer's take on informal networking and assistance, and a chilling warning from Epstein's Russian-born bodyguard about a week-long visit to Langley during Epstein's jail time. The episode widens the lens to global dimensions, including Poland's probe into Epstein's ties to Moscow-linked figures, positioning him as a hyper fixer who brokered access for elites, foreign governments, and intelligence while leveraging secrets and blackmail. In collaboration with the Don Lemon Show, Tara and Don dissect the latest document revelations, victim testimonies highlighting ages as young as nine, extensive mentions of Donald Trump, survivor advocacy including Capitol Hill appearances, and why the system may have shielded Epstein because he provided unique value—turning justice failures into features of power protection. What do these intelligence connections reveal about how the powerful stay untouchable?

02-13-26 Part One - Be Careful Little Eyes What You See

In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, Marconi award winning radio host Dan Mandis fills in for the guys tonight and we begin with the influence of social media on children and how platforms like TikTok are promoting the left's agenda on school age children. Also the corruption of Minnesota's AG Keith Ellison and the pushback of ICE in Minnesota. Now Gov. Tim Walz wants taxpayers to reimburse the state for damages. Also the top lawyer at Goldman Sachs, Kathy Ruemmler, has announced that she will resign following revelations of her links to the late financier and sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Ruemmler’s resignation comes after the DOJ’s latest release of investigative files about Epstein showed that she had received gifts from Epstein, offered him advice on managing his reputation, and likened him to an older brother.

Lawfare Archive: Jack Goldsmith on Trump v. United States and Executive Power

From February 12, 2025: Jack Goldsmith, the Learned Hand Professor at Harvard Law School and co-founder of Lawfare, joins Alan Rozenshtein, Associate Professor of Law at the University of Minnesota and Senior Editor at Lawfare, to talk about his recent Lawfare article discussing last year's Supreme Court decision in Trump v. United States and its implications for executive power. They discuss how the ruling extends beyond presidential immunity, the broader shift toward a maximalist theory of executive authority, and what this means for the future of American democracy.

#621: Putting the Puzzle Pieces Together | Stephen Bassett

For three decades, the Executive Director of Paradigm Research Group has been pushing Washington, D.C., for disclosure of the technologically advanced, non-human presence on this planet. All of the hard work might just pay off, as the pieces are quickly snapping together towards Disclosure Day. Stephen Bassett believes we may be only months away from an official disclosure of what many have suspected, and some have always known, about the true nature of the existence of other life forms. How will society respond, and what will the messaging from the religious institutions look like once the genie is out of the bottle? We may not have to wait much longer to find out. — Guest Links Stephen Bassettwww.ParadigmResearchGroup.org— Video Channels Watch the video version of Macroaggressions: Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/Macroaggressions YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@MacroaggressionsPodcastBrighteon: https://www.brighteon.com/channels/macroaggressions/— MACRO & Charlie Robinson Links Hypocrazy Audiobook: https://amzn.to/4aogwmsThe Octopus of Global Control Audiobook: https://amzn.to/3xu0rMmWebsite: www.Macroaggressions.ioMerch Store: https://macroaggressions.dashery.com/ Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/macroaggressionspodcast— Activist Post Family Sign up for the Activist Post Newsletter: https://activistpost.kit.com/emailsActivist Post: www.ActivistPost.comNatural Blaze: www.NaturalBlaze.com — Support Our Sponsors Ground Luxe Grounding Mats: https://GroundLuxe.com/MACROReplace Your Mortgage: www.WipeOutYourMortgageNow.comC60 Power: https://go.ShopC60.com/PBGRT/KMKS9/ | Promo Code: MACROChemical Free Body: https://ChemicalFreeBody.com/macro/ | Promo Code: MACROWise Wolf Gold & Silver: https://Macroaggressions.Gold/ | (800) 426-1836LegalShield: www.DontGetPushedAround.comEMP Shield: www.EMPShield.com | Promo Code: MACROChristian Yordanov's Health Program: www.LiveLongerFormula.com/macroAbove Phone: https://AbovePhone.com/macro/Van Man: https://VanMan.shop/?ref=MACRO | Promo Code: MACROThe Dollar Vigilante: https://DollarVigilante.spiffy.co/a/O3wCWenlXN/4471Nesa’s Hemp: www.NesasHemp.com | Promo Code: MACROAugason Farms: https://AugasonFarms.com/MACRO—
