Trump Pulls Midnight DOJ Scheme as Pressure Mounts
Summary
The episode critiques Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche’s midnight order rescinding the anti-weaponization fund, arguing it fails to cancel the May 19th addendum waiving Trump’s tax liabilities. The host claims this maneuver is a deceptive attempt to secure Blanche’s confirmation by Senators Cornyn and Tillis, who demanded full rescission. Additionally, the discussion covers Trump’s alleged lies about Iran, his poor physical appearance, and broader economic concerns like rising treasury yields.
