-- On the Show:

— Dr. Zachary Rubin joins the show to discuss pandemic prevention, vaccine policy, and public health communication under Trump

— Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell calmly but clearly blames Donald Trump’s tariffs for slowing the economy, ignoring Trump’s insults and reminding the country that the Fed isn’t his punching bag

— Trump lashes out over Powell’s refusal to obey him, calls the Fed Chair “stupid,” suggests appointing himself, and rants about inflation like a guy who thinks economics is just vibes

— At a White House flagpole event, Trump teases an erection and asks if there are any illegal immigrants in the crowd—proving again that he can turn anything into a campaign rally freak show

— Trump struggles through an incoherent press conference, misrepresents Kamala Harris’s interview with 60 Minutes, dodges serious questions, and lies about polls while preaching unity out of nowhere

— Kayleigh McEnany accidentally diagnoses Trump’s entire movement as a national security threat while trying to describe someone else

— Trump delivers maybe his worst historical brain break yet, confusing the Declaration of Independence with the Civil War and suggesting the South declared independence in 1776

— According to a major international report, David Pakman is now tied as the most recognized progressive commentator in the country—alongside right-wing giants and with no corporate backing

-- On the Bonus Show: Karen Read acquitted in murder trial, Trump feuds with Tulsi, Trump admin closing LGBTQ+ suicide hotline, and much more...
