  • Missouri Votes Today on Killing Its Income Tax — 63% of Revenue Gone, So What Fills the Gap? Mamdani's Grocery Store Eligibility Rules Make
    Aug 4 2026
    Missouri voters decide today whether to phase out the state income tax — which currently makes up 63 percent of state revenue. If it passes, taxes go up somewhere else, guaranteed. We break down how we'd vote. Mayor Mamdani's proposed grocery stores apparently only require a NYC library card to shop — not income, not need. That detail alone tells you this idea is in trouble before it's even built. And Ohio Congressman Max Miller faces a Wednesday deadline to be pulled from the ballot over serious domestic abuse allegations from his ex-wife — allegations his own former father-in-law, a sitting senator, calls disqualifying. Is this the Republican version of what Democrats went through with Graham Platner in Maine? We ask directly. All of it today.

  • Pirro Puts Her Job on the Line — Drops Bogus Charges Against Olympian David Hearn Over Reflecting Pool "Vandalism" That Was Actually Botched
    Aug 3 2026
    I wasn't a Pirro fan before, but she earned real respect today. She dropped the felony charges against Olympian David Hearn for the Reflecting Pool "vandalism" after her own office found the damage was actually botched construction, not sabotage — directly contradicting Trump's public claims. Trump is furious, disagrees completely, and may fire her over it. That took real courage. Meanwhile, how many times has Trump now threatened Iran with military action only to back off at the last second? War is a test of wills, and we ask honestly — are Iran's leaders deliberately provoking him because they've learned the threats never turn into action? All of it today.

  • Iran Is the Prime Suspect in Hacking Your Water — 30+ Minnesota Systems Hit, Seven States Targeted Total. Advisors Warn Trump Retaliation Wo
    Jul 31 2026
    U.S. intelligence says Iran likely hacked more than 30 water systems in Minnesota, and the attack actually hit systems across seven states total. Iran may be bringing this war home. Trump's response? He blamed Minnesota's governor instead and said "Iran should be so lucky." We examine that gap. Advisors are telling reporters retaliation strikes alone won't win this war — they'll just drag it out. The real choice is escalate and win or accept a bad deal, and neither is what the President wants. Todd Blanche's confirmation is still stuck in the Senate. And we revisit Chinese cars — banned here, sold everywhere else. National security or just protecting Detroit like we protected it from Japan in the 1970s? All of it today.

  • Cornyn's Revenge — Republicans Fight Trump Over Todd Blanche as the AG Vote Stalls Before August Recess. NYC Mayor Publishes Pied-à-Terre Ow
    Jul 30 2026
    Senator Cornyn won't vote for Todd Blanche without written DOJ promises — and it's worth noting Trump just endorsed Ken Paxton against Cornyn in the Texas primary. Coincidence? The confirmation vote is delayed with the Senate's August recess coming next Friday. NYC's mayor published the names and addresses of pied-à-terre apartment owners in a public shaming campaign — dangerous, and we ask the obvious question: does shaming rich people who already pay their taxes actually help anyone struggling financially? History says no. And June's PCE inflation dropped to 3.7 percent thanks to lower gas prices during the brief Iran pause — a pause that's already over. All of it today.

  • Iran's Surprise Rocket Attack Just Ended Trump's "Pause." He Says Now It's "Our Turn" to Fire Back — But War Isn't a Turn-Based Game. Fed Ho
    Jul 29 2026
    Iran fired a surprise rocket attack overnight and just like that, Trump's "pause" is over. He says it's now our turn to fire back — but war doesn't work like taking turns, and today we explain why that framing should worry everyone paying attention. The Fed held interest rates unchanged and Wall Street hated it — the Dow dropped over a thousand points on inflation fears with no Fed action to calm them. And Todd Blanche's Attorney General confirmation just hit a wall — Senator John Cornyn says no vote unless the DOJ puts specific promises in writing about the anti-weaponization bill and Trump's tax audit immunity, and the DOJ won't do it. Big, chaotic news day — all of it today.

  • Lindsey Graham Memorials in DC and South Carolina — We Play His Iconic Kavanaugh Hearing Rant. Iran Says Trump's "Nicely" Story Is False & K
    Jul 28 2026
    Lindsey Graham's memorial service is today in DC with South Carolina tomorrow, and the moment everyone keeps replaying since his death is his explosive Kavanaugh hearing rant — we play it for you today. Trump says Iran asked him nicely to stop the bombing. Iran says that never happened. We examine why the President keeps describing a war like it's a real estate deal. And Bryan Kohberger wants to withdraw his guilty plea in the Idaho college murders. Here's what matters — the man has a master's degree and was working toward a PhD in criminal justice. He's not confused. My take — he misses the spotlight. All of it today.

  • Bernie vs Rahm — The Democratic Civil War Is Now Fully Public. Trump Pauses the Iran War Again and Waves Off Russia-Iran Intel Until He "Ask
    Jul 27 2026
    Bernie Sanders and Rahm Emanuel are now fighting it out in public — Sanders calling out the Democratic establishment on national television, Emanuel warning in the Wall Street Journal that socialist candidates could cost Democrats the midterms. We break down who's actually winning this fight. Trump paused the Iran war again — why does this keep happening? And when told Russia is helping Iran, he reportedly said he doesn't believe it but he'll ask Putin. We have questions about that verification method. And three people were killed at Seattle's Bite of Seattle food festival Sunday night when two gunmen opened fire on each other in a massive crowd. Be careful of the people around you at big events — this is exactly why. All of it today.

  • They're Back — Tariffs Return and They're Still a Tax on You. Truth Social Sells Early Access to Trump's Posts for $100K a Month & Thune-Tru
    Jul 24 2026
    Tariffs are back and let's be honest about what they are — a tax that raises your prices, slows the economy, and invites other countries to retaliate against our exporters. Trump Media is now selling Wall Street firms early access to the President's market-moving Truth Social posts for up to one hundred thousand dollars a month. Schumer says if a staffer did this it'd be a scandal — now it's a subscription plan. We agree it's wrong, regardless of party. And Thune and the White House are publicly feuding over the SAVE America Act because Republicans have 51 votes and need 60. Thune's telling the White House to go get the votes themselves. Big show, straight talk, today.
