About this episode

The episode discusses the radical alignment issues within the Democrat Party, focusing on key figures and recent political events.

The FBI confirmed what we already knew about the Michigan synagogue attack — but the media conveniently buried the lead. Now meet Abdul El-Sayed: Michigan Democrat, Senate candidate, and a man so afraid of his Dearborn constituency he can’t even acknowledge the Ayatollah’s death. We’ve got the recordings. Then there’s Hassan Piker — the millionaire socialist in Cartier glasses the Democrats are betting on to win back young voters. Spoiler: the party is fracturing over it. We break down the Dearborn imam clips, El-Sayed’s deleted 9/11 posts, and why Gavin Newsom and Bernie Sanders cozying up to this guy should concern everyone. Plus: Trump’s Iran address, the birthright citizenship oral arguments, Pam Bondi gets fired, and the most over-the-top presidential library reveal you’ve ever seen. Rivera & Reeves — the media is trash and we have zero tolerance for it. Thank you Kate, Trudi Laurence, and many others for tuning into my live video!
