This July Fourth, our team went searching for where "No Kings" actually started — and found a story that was covered up for decades and still isn't in most history books. In 1772, a year and a half before the Boston Tea Party, a group of colonists rowed out under a moonless sky, shot a British officer, burned a Royal Navy ship to the waterline — and when the King demanded names and offered a fortune for them, an entire colony refused to talk. Rhode Island's Governor, Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, and local historians tell us the real story — including where it's been hiding in plain sight for 250 years. This is a public episode.

While Jim is off, we’re picking some of our favorite shows to re-air. Today it’s tennis legend Martina Navratilova, who defected from communist Czechoslovakia in 1975 — and says Trump's America is showing every sign of the totalitarian regime she escaped. Navratilova is currently appearing in a new Netflix documentary titled, Chris & Martina: The Final Set, which premieres globally on Netflix on June 26, 2026. We also picked our interview with Academy Award-nominated actress Lily Gladstone (Killers of the Flower Moon), of Blackfeet and Nez Perce heritage, whose peoples survived a deliberate campaign of genocide. Gladstone joined Jim to discuss her powerful PBS documentary "Bring Them Home."And finally, thank you Deeanna Burleson, Bird Mama, John H, Stuart Cohen, Kate Weissmann, and many others for tuning into the broadcast Join us for our next live video in the app at 4p ET weekdays.

While Jim is out this week, we are re-airing some of our favorite guests, tonight it’s Retired Lieutenant General Mark Hertling who joined Jim Acosta for a wide-open conversation about what's really happening in the Iran war — and what the Trump administration refuses to say out loud. Hertling also raises the alarm about Russia allegedly providing Iran with intelligence to target American warships and assets in the region. Plus: the FBI and DHS weakened at exactly the moment the US faces its highest domestic terror risk in years.Plus, Ruth Ben Ghiat joins to discuss Trump's incessant fraud claims, despite never offering or finding any evidence of election fraud.Thank you Dianne Mize, Mediocre mamma, Joyce E.
