YouTube Description
as posted by the channelDOJ Goes After Comey. FCC vs Jimmy Kimmel. 1100 TSA Officers Quit Since Shutdown. Kid Rock’s Apache Joy Ride with Hegseth. UAE Leaves OPEC. Gov Moore on Open Primaries.
A real king is in Washington this week, and the wannabe king in the Oval Office is making the most of the pomp. Paul Rieckhoff opens with King Charles and Camilla's visit, the Epstein questions nobody at the White House wants to touch, and the through-line that drives this entire briefing: Trump is busting up Congress, the UN, NATO, the World Bank, the EU, and now OPEC — and the institutions that held this country and this world together are being stress-tested in real time. Gas hits $4.18, the UAE bolts from the cartel, 1,100 TSA officers walk off the job, and most Americans have no idea any of it is happening.
From there it's a no-BS sweep across the front lines: a $400 million ballroom funded by your tax dollars after Trump promised to pay himself, a no-bid contract inflated 3X, Pete Hegseth taking Kid Rock on Apache joyrides while the chain of command rots, the FCC weaponized against ABC and Jimmy Kimmel, a renewed indictment push against Jim Comey over seashells on a beach, and 185 people killed in 54 unauthorized strikes on so-called narco boats with Cuba telegraphed as next. Then the inspiration: Ukraine killing 30,000 Russian troops a month, Norway co-producing drones for Kyiv, independent veteran Todd Achilles taking on an 83-year-old senator in Idaho, Wes Moore endorsing open primaries, and Horace Grant's goggles. Country over party. People over politics. Light over heat.
