Measles is back in South Carolina—and it didn’t happen by accident. In this episode, Rick Wilson lays out why RFK Jr. may be the most dangerous member of Trump’s cabinet: a powerful megaphone for anti-vaccine propaganda that is eroding public trust in science and reopening the door to diseases...

The DOJ Covers Up the Epstein Files: The Criminal Conspiracy in Real Time
In this explosive episode, Rick Wilson rips the lid off the DOJ’s choking, years-long effort to bury the Epstein files—those blacked-out, shredded, quietly “misplaced” documents that just happen to shield some of the most powerful men in America. We dig into the redactions, the vanishing…

-
Shutdown Circus Meets Quantico Silence
Trump shut down the government, then tried to hand Democrats the bill like a drunk guy bailing on dinner. Spoiler: nobody’s buying it. Meanwhile, Pete Hegseth waddled into Quantico expecting a standing ovation and got the sound of crickets filing a noise complaint. Two disasters, one week — and...
-
James Comey: The First of Many?
This week’s bombshell: the DOJ, under Trump’s direction, indicted James Comey—a former FBI director long critical of Trump—for allegedly lying to Congress and obstructing oversight. To get it done, Trump purged the existing U.S. Attorney in Virginia and elevated Lindsey Halligan, a political...

When Conspiracy Runs the Country: RFK Jr.
RFK Jr., the brain-wormed anti-vaxxer inexplicably running America’s Department of Health and Human Services, is proof that irony is alive and well. Charged with protecting public health, he’s busy undoing lifesaving mRNA vaccine programs and replacing science with YouTube-level quackery. It’s…

Will the Media Survive Epstein?
"The idea should be very clear: Trump is going after the media to suppress coverage of the cover-up." The media is becoming complicit in the greatest cover-up in the history of American politics.

Why Democrats Keep Losing | Enemies List Q&A

Mike Johnson: 40 Million Americans in the Crosshairs

The Normies Did This

Pete Hegseth: DUI Over DEI at the Pentagon
Pete Hegseth went from being a tatted-up, Fox News weekend host with a frat-boy persona to being Secretary of Defense. It's going as well as any rational person might have expected. That is to say, according to insiders, reporting, and our own eyes and ears, it’s a disaster. His time at the...
