    07/23/26 Evolving The Grift

    Today, we look at how the Trump family's money-making operation is becoming more sophisticated. From the president buying stocks and then promoting the companies on Truth Social, to Wall Street firms paying for faster access to his posts, political influence is now being packaged and sold in real time. We also examine Donald Trump Jr.'s investment fund, its eye-popping returns, and the billions in federal funding flowing to companies it has backed—while House Republicans attach a watered-down stock trading bill to new voter ID restrictions.

    07/22/26 Hat In Hand Hegseth

    Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth went before Congress hat in hand, asking lawmakers to keep funding a war he insists is already a success—while struggling to provide straight answers about its cost, strategy, legal authority, or endgame. We break down the bipartisan grilling, Hegseth's contradictory claims about Iran's military and surrender, and the Pentagon's admission that the war has already cost $37.5 billion and is rapidly draining its budget. Plus, while warning about Iran's nuclear ambitions, the Trump administration approves a deal that could allow Saudi Arabia to enrich uranium.

    07/21/26 Who Controls The Purse Strings?

    As the Iran war drains billions from the Pentagon, injures nearly 100 U.S. troops, and moves no closer to changing Tehran's position, Congress is once again being pushed to the sidelines. We look at who really controls the purse strings when the Trump administration can expand a war, ignore lawmakers' spending decisions, and let Russell Vought's OMB impose budget cuts Congress already rejected.

    07/20/26 The Escalation Trap

    With more American troops killed, dozens of military injuries allegedly withheld from the public, and the United States launching another round of strikes against Iran, the conflict is slipping deeper into a dangerous cycle of retaliation. We examine Jordan's emergence as a new flashpoint, Iran's increasingly deadly missile capabilities, the renewed talk of negotiations, and the growing cost at home as gas prices return to $4 a gallon.

    07/17/26 Election Lies, Russian Ties

    Trump revives his election fraud conspiracy theories in a televised speech built around newly declassified documents, "burn bags," and claims of Chinese interference. We separate what the records actually show from what Trump says they prove, examine Beijing's response, and look at his threat to punish ABC and NBC for refusing to air the speech.

    07/15/26 Protection Racket

    Companies are learning the rules of Trump's Washington: grease the right palms, invest alongside the family and stay in the administration's good graces—or risk being shut out. Today, we examine how Trump's sons are cashing in on defense technology, how the government is taking stakes in private companies and how the UAE secured coveted AI chips after backing the U.S. war in Iran. Then, Trump returns to prime-time television to revive his 2020 election claims and target voting machines.

    07/14/26 Lindsey Will Be Missed...By Republicans

    We examine the political fallout following Sen. Lindsey Graham's sudden death, Trump's push to have Graham's sister complete his term, and the complications his absence creates for the Republican agenda in Congress. We also look at the internet's questions surrounding Mitch McConnell's oddly timed newspaper photo, before turning to a federal judge's blistering criticism of Trump, his attorneys, and Justice Department officials for allegedly misusing the courts in his IRS case.
