• Trump RAGES At GOP Congressman Thomas Massie!

  President Trump is vowing to “lead the charge” to unseat Republican Represenative Thomas Massie of Kentucky after the congressman declared he will not support the GOP’s short-term government funding bill ahead of Friday’s shutdown deadline. Trump began a Truth Social post late Monday night by thanking the House Freedom Caucus for backing the stopgap funding package and supporting Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-La.) efforts to keep the government open, and then lit into Massie and called for him to be primaried. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss how Massie is fulfilling the MAGA promises even more than Trump and why he likely doesn’t need to worry about Trump’s threats. Plus segments on the latest ceasefire offer from Trump to Putin, the media freakout over an alleged measles epidemic and accusations that Maui’s police chief was involved in a rape coverup for Diddy. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!

• CIA-Backed Jihadist Death Squads Terrorizing Syria! w/ Jeffrey Sachs

  The overthrow of Bashar al-Assad in Syria has not led to stability in the war-torn nation. In fact, death squads affiliated with the Islamist group Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) that now rules over much of Syria have been blamed for more than 1,000 killings in the past week, most of them civilian members of the Alawite minority of deposed president Bashar al-Assad. Syrian Christians fear they will be the next group targeted by the HTS security forces. Jimmy and renowned public policy analyst Jeffrey Sachs discuss the situation on the ground in Syria and this predictable outcome of Assad’s ouster by radical Islamists backed by the CIA. Plus segments on the extermination of democracy in Romania, NIH nominee Dr. Jay Bhattacharya’s controversial senate confirmation hearing and the background of new Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney. Also featuring Mike MacRae, Kurt Metzger and Stef Zamorano. And a phone call from JD Vance!

• Senate Votes To ALLOW Debanking Over “Misinformation” & “Hate”!

  Senate Republicans on Wednesday passed a measure to allow payment apps like Venmo and PayPal to return to ideological debanking—repealing a rule implemented in December by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. Repeal of the rule would leave users of the apps in limbo, as the laws protecting consumers would still be in place, but the rule enforcing the law—and the bureau with the capacity to enforce it—would not. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss the bill, which has not yet passed in the House, and how it will allow these payment app companies to deny service to individuals or groups on ideological grounds. Plus segments on Americans’ declining support for Israel, Matt Taibbi’s perspective on why the left should support Kash Patel’s efforts to reform the FBI and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s bellicose rhetoric toward China. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Al Pacino!

• Trump CRACKS DOWN On Free Speech! w/ Matt Taibbi

  In what can only be described as a stunning reversal on a key political issues, Republicans have now siezed the mantle of supporting free speech away from Democrats — mostly owing to Democrats’ support for efforts to counter what they call “misinformation” and “hate speech” online. But now Donald Trump appears to be willing to crack down on speech he doesn’t like as well, in particular criticisms of Israel and support for Palestinians. Jimmy and investigative journalist Matt Taibbi discuss just how much Trump’s proposed measures against protesters will undermine his free speech bona fides among the MAGA faithful. Plus segments with Taibbi on Trump exposing the likes of Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders as pro-war tools, CNN’s post-speech poll showing wide-ranging support for Trump’s stated agenda and Zelensky rethinking his stance of pissing off Trump and coming crawling back to make peace with Russia.

• Zelensky Is A PAWN Stuck Between NATO & Ukrainian Neo-N@zis!

  In 2019 historian and Russia expert Stephen F. Cohen sat down with journalist Aaron Maté to discuss Ukraine’s newly elected President, Volodymyr Zelensky, and the threats he faced from neo-Nazi militants in his own country who were pressing to escalate the civil war in the east of Ukraine despite Zelensky running on a peace platform. Zelensky, of course, caved to the pressure from these ultranationalist elements, as well as NATO, both of whom wanted Ukraine to go to war with Russia, and now we face the end game which could mean the end for Zelensky’s presidency, and worse. Plus segments on Putin’s offer of Russian rare earth metals to the United States, a Zelensky supporter bawling over his treatment by Donald Trump and Joy Behar begging Elon Musk not to sue her after she claimed, falsely, that he supported apartheid in South Africa. Also featuring Stef Zamorano, Kurt Metzger and Mike MacRae. And a phone call from Jake Tapper!
