    Is It August 1939? Russia Attacks NATO, Kushner is Compromised, Petraeus's Near-Miss, and Don Jr.'s GRU-Funded Wedding

    A special emergency crossover episode of Pax Americana and The Dispatch — Olga Lautman and Julie Roginsky cover a single day's worth of escalation: a Belarus-launched explosive drone entering Lithuania, a Russian frigate firing flares at a Danish military helicopter in international waters, Russian strategic bombers with cruise missiles buzzing Norway, a suspected Russian drone found near a German military base, sabotage on Dutch rail lines, and a Russian drone strike on a Ukrainian train station minutes after Boris Johnson's diplomatic train passed through — with former CIA Director David Petraeus's train still there. They also break down new reporting on Jared Kushner's Russia-linked business dealings and the New Yorker's report on a Kremlin-tied deal list, and the ProPublica investigation into Donald Trump Jr.'s Bahamas wedding, secretly bankrolled by a Russian oligarch with direct ties to Putin's security detail and Russian military intelligence.

    Donald Trump's Vile September 11 Lies and Stolen Valor w/ Lt. Col. Jaclyn Urso (Ret.)

    Twenty-five years later, and Donald Trump is still lying about September 11th. This week, standing in front of actual 9/11 first responders, Trump claimed firefighters had to drag him out from under a collapsing building — and that he "worked long and hard" at Ground Zero. Neither happened. There's no evidence, no witnesses, no records — just another new version of a story he's been changing for over two decades. Michelle Kinney and Mayday Military Analyst Lt. Col. Jaclyn Urso (Ret.) will go through the receipts. Michelle has called New York City home for 22 of the last 25 years, lived downtown during the 00s, and watched this city carry that day ever since. Lt. Col. Urso (Ret.) joined the Marine Corps because of the events of September 11. Follow The Mayday Network for more reporting, analysis, and rapid response — new content every day.

    Trump Renames Lake Ontario While Americans Can't Afford To Live, w/ Lt. Col Jaclyn Urso Ret.

    Trump signed an executive order today renaming Lake Ontario "Lake America" — because apparently that was the crisis America needed solved. Meanwhile, people can't afford gas, electricity, or groceries, World War 3 feels like it's on the brink, and an Oregon Trail-worthy lineup of old-timey diseases is making a comeback. Priorities. Michelle grew up on that lake, so this one's personal, and she's joined by Lt. Col. Jaclyn Urso, Ret. to break down just how dumb, and how telling, this all is.

    Cool AF Jon Ossoff Humiliates a Stammering Pete Hegseth on Iran

    Senator Jon Ossoff was cool as a cucumber. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth… was not. As 2028 presidential chatter builds around Ossoff, he calmly dismantled Hegseth on Iran while the Defense Secretary, visibly sweating through his orange makeup, could not answer any of the questions put in front of him. Calm, collected, and devastatingly (handsome!) effective — this is what command looks like next to what doesn’t. We will break down the humiliating moment for Julie’s former coworker.
