YouTube Description
as posted by the channelOn tonight’s show, I’ll be discussing the latest Trump corruption and chaos stories, starting with the green algae back at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool -- after a longtime Trump donor’s firm got a no-bid contract to clean it. And yes, the company is actually called Greenwater Services. You can’t make this stuff up.
I’ll also get into Trump creating yet another diplomatic incident, this time with Italy’s Giorgia Meloni, after he claimed she “begged” him for a photo at the G7. Italy’s foreign minister has now canceled a planned trip to Washington, and Meloni fired back hard, saying Italy does not beg.
Then we’ll talk about the major flu outbreak at Lackland Air Force Base, where nearly 160 troops got sick just weeks after Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ended the flu vaccine requirement for U.S. troops.
I’ll also cover ProPublica’s new reporting on a $620 million Pentagon loan to a startup linked to Donald Trump Jr. -- and how the request reportedly came directly from the White House.
And then there’s the bizarre Oval Office story about Trump proudly showing reporters a document he claimed proved he was more powerful than Hitler and Stalin -- only for the supposed “presidential historian” behind it to turn out to be Gary Player’s former caddie.
Plus, I’ll talk about the Medal of Honor guy, Trump trying to superglue gold decorations onto the Oval Office marble fireplace mantle, and we’ll wrap with Coffee Tok Sunday.
