Putting Up Wins? | Piker Booed, El-Sayed Distances | Spencer Pratt's Wake-Up Call | 8/25/26

from The A.M. Update

Aaron McIntire highlights several administration wins, including Education Department guidance treating gender transition claims in schools as child abuse, a new $100,000 H-1B visa application fee, and Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent's Operation Economic Outcast targeting Iran's global financial network. He covers DSA-aligned streamer Hasan Piker getting booed after walking back past comments about 9/11, and Michigan Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed publicly distancing himself from Piker's support. Aaron reacts to former Vice President Mike Pence's CNN interview about his former transgender CIA briefer, Julia Curlee, and new global fertility data suggesting humanity may be below replacement level for the first time in recorded history. He closes out the show discussing former LA mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt's viral video on America's cultural decline, and public reaction to the Charlie Kirk assassination and the Lindsay Clancy trial.
