from The Truth with Sherwin Hughes · host Sherwin Hughes

In the final hour, Sherwin reacts to newly released Epstein files, Trump’s frantic social media behavior, and the growing anxiety surrounding the administration’s direction. He ties rising tariffs to widespread retail closures, questions the sincerity of “white guilt,” and explains why performative empathy does more harm than good. The hour closes with a raw conversation about race, violence, and why public reaction often reveals more than the events themselves.
