World leaders came to Davos, Switzerland expecting economic policy, global cooperation, and maybe a little diplomatic reassurance. What they got instead was Donald Trump riffing his way through history that never happened, countries he seemed to confuse, lies he’s already been corrected on, and grievances that had absolutely nothing to do with the room he was in. In this episode, we walk through Trump’s Davos speech line by line — not just to fact-check the falsehoods, but to ask a much more uncomfortable question: what happens when the President of the United States can’t stay tethered to reality on the world stage? This isn’t about partisan takes or cheap shots. Even the most ardent Trump supporter should listen to this episode, because if you care about American strength, credibility, and basic competence, what happened in Davos should worry you. At best, it was embarrassing. At worst, it was a flashing red warning light.

A lot of people think they already know what ICE can and cannot do. Many don't. In this episode, we slow everything down and walk through the real rules governing ICE encounters: in public, in vehicles, at home, and at work. We break down what “probable cause” actually means, why “looking foreign” is not evidence, when agents need real warrants, and how speech — even profanity — is protected under the Constitution. Using real Supreme Court cases, documented enforcement abuses, and realistic step-by-step scenarios, this episode is about clarity in a moment when fear thrives on confusion. Knowing your rights isn’t radical. It’s civic literacy — and it matters more now than ever. Also, this week: Why is Stephen Miller important, Trump's letter to Norway, and what one reporter found out about ICE hiring.

What happens when Congress issues a subpoena — and someone powerful simply ignores it? In this episode, we step back from the daily chaos to examine the defiance of congressional subpoenas by Bill and Hillary Clinton in the Jeffrey Epstein investigation, and what it says about the slow erosion of congressional authority. We break down what subpoena power actually is, how Congress is supposed to enforce it, and why that enforcement has grown increasingly rare. Additionally, we confront an uncomfortable but necessary conclusion: if we want accountability for Donald Trump or anyone tied to Epstein, Congress must be willing to hold everyone to the same standard, regardless of party, power, or past loyalty.
