"I am more terrified than [during] any of the previous national security crises since 2017 that Trump has been involved in," Elizabeth Saunders says on the pod. The lack of constraints this time are something new. Listen to her extended warning here: newrepublic.com/article/208701…

What the hell—Despite suddenly losing 1.6 million bee colonies to a mass die off in the U.S. in a year, Trump WH is instead planning to close the USDA’s premier bee 🐝laboratory, worrying beekeepers, scientists and farmers. nebraskapublicmedia.org/en/news/news-a…

#ResistanceEarth As Trump continues his environmental scorched earth policy, he's taking the ax to the National Forest Service. On the chopping block: a world-renowned research facility that studies the impact of climate change on peatlands and northern forests. mprnews.org/story/2026/04/…

This is how propaganda works in the United States 👇 Fox News proclaims a “Miracle in the Mountains” Hegseth claimed: “An Easter miracle where a solider emerged from a cave on the 3rd day” The reality? There is ZERO chance the US military would send 155 aircraft deep into Iranian territory to rescue one man. The US failed a secret mission to steal Iran’s uranium and now have to launch a PR campaign to make sure the American public not realize that Iran took out many US military aircraft and despite 6 weeks of war, the Strait of Hormuz is still closed

REMINDER: The Republicans' budget bill made private jets tax-deductible. Yes, it made private jets fully tax-deductible. It’s clear who Republican politicians are working for… and it’s not you.

@kylegriffin1 @mrbigg450 Trump must immediately be removed from Office.

He's lying for Putin!

In honor of Vance's visit to Hungary, where he will campaign for Viktor Orban, I am reposting this article: Orban's Hungary is one of the poorest countries, and certainly the most corrupt and least free country, in the EU. Vance wants this for America? theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…

#BREAKING: Legendary #Maddow: "...this is the warning that Sen Warner has just hoisted: 'Trump is trying to override our voting system...allies of Trump's working in coordination with people close to the White House have circulated a draft executive order that would declare a national emergency based on false claims of foreign interference in the 2020 election. That declaration would be used to unlock sweeping presidential powers over how Americans vote...The proposal would allow the federal government to bar widely used voting methods, including mail ballots...'"😳

Epstein positioned himself as a White House insider to one of India's wealthiest businessmen, offering access to Trump administration figures. Jeffrey Epstein and Indian billionaire Anil Ambani exchanged hundreds of messages between 2017 and 2019, with Epstein presenting himself as a Trump White House insider who could provide access to key administration figures. Ambani reached out to Epstein shortly after Trump took office, writing: "Will need ur guidance on dealing wth white house for india relationship ad defense cooperation." After a visit to Delhi in March 2017, Ambani told Epstein that "Leadership" - interpreted as the Modi government - wanted Epstein's help to meet "jared and bannon asap" and requested assistance for Modi's upcoming meeting with Trump. Epstein delivered. He offered introductions to Steve Bannon and Thomas Barrack Jr., who chaired Trump's 2017 inaugural committee. He predicted John Bolton's appointment as national security adviser eight months before it happened. He advised Ambani that "Israel strategy" would dominate Modi's meeting with Trump - advice that mattered since Ambani had a $10 billion defense deal with Israeli companies. Epstein connected Ambani with Tom Pritzker (Hyatt Hotels chairman), former Israeli PM Ehud Barak, former CIA director Bill Burns, and even offered to organize a private dinner with the "head of NATO." After Modi's historic 2017 visit to Israel, Epstein celebrated that Modi had "danced and sang in Israel for the benefit of the US president." But Ambani wasn't just seeking political connections. By 2019, his net worth had crashed from $45 billion in 2007 to $1.7 billion. He turned to Epstein for financial advice. Epstein sent sympathetic messages, telling Ambani to stay "mentally strong" and suggested bankruptcy-proof vehicles while claiming "no money for me" - just acting "as a friend." The two communicated through messages, phone calls, and encrypted platforms like Signal and Telegram, where Ambani went by "Armani A." In one uncomfortable exchange about the US ambassador pick for India, Epstein suggested "a tall Swedish blonde woman to make it fun to visit" and asked Ambani about his preferred actress or model. This entire relationship happened after Epstein pleaded guilty in 2008 to soliciting prostitution from a minor and became a registered sex offender. A convicted sex offender was positioning himself as a White House insider to one of India's wealthiest businessmen, offering access to Trump administration figures while the businessman sought help navigating US politics on behalf of what he called "Leadership" in India.
