Trump’s Dead Man’s Switch, Fired for Truth in Memphis, and the Watergate CIA Plot

from The Adult in the Room · host Victoria Taft

Victoria Taft delivers a masterclass in geopolitical realities and media manipulation. We break down Donald Trump’s jaw-dropping "Dead Man’s Switch" order to completely flatten Iran if their state-sponsored plots successfully target him, arriving right on the second anniversary of the Butler, Pennsylvania assassination attempt. We also share the staggering story of independent journalist Delicia Ballinger, who was summarily fired from a Memphis news publication for simply posting a video thanking Trump for sending the National Guard to quiet the violent gunshots in her neighborhood. Plus, we feature two world-class interviews: former UK Ambassador Edmond Fitton-Brown delivers an emergency Iran SITREP on autonomous drone boats and the collapsed Gulf ceasefire, and former federal prosecutor John O'Connor drops by to expose how the CIA and the Washington Post actively manufactured the Watergate scandal to take down Richard Nixon.
