Pete Hegseth lied to Congress while 175 dead kids cooled in the rubble. Trump lost to Iran. Comey got indicted for a tweet. The Defense Secretary is a fascist with crusader tattoos. None of this is hyperbole. It's the record. *In this episode:* • Hegseth caught lying under oath about the war with Iran • A Tomahawk killed 175 children in an elementary school • His own mother called him a serial abuser — in writing • Trump threatens to yank 35,000 troops from Germany • Comey indicted by Trump's hand-picked prosecutor • Seth Moulton names the war crime: "no quarter" Key figures: Pete Hegseth, Donald Trump, James Comey, Adam Smith, Seth Moulton, Friedrich Merz, Todd Blanche

Germany's Chancellor said it on the record. Iran is humiliating Donald Trump. Meanwhile his Department of Justice indicts Jim Comey over a photo of seashells, and Lindsey Graham begs for a half-billion-dollar ballroom.

Tonight: a sitting American president, humiliated by Iran on the world stage, takes it out on a former FBI director by indicting him for an Instagram post.

⦿ Friedrich Merz says it out loud — Iran has shut the Strait of Hormuz, and Trump has no move.

⦿ Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, the man who used to defend Trump in court, now files felony charges over seashells. ⦿ And the Republican response to a shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner? Lindsey Graham wants a ballroom.

Comey indicted a second time, this time over a beach photo Merz on the record: Iran humiliated the American president Trump's double blockade of Hormuz and what happens to the global economy The Correspondents' Dinner shooting and the GOP's instant blame game Lindsey Graham, Eric Schmitt, and the half-billion-dollar ballroom

A man walked into the Washington Hilton with guns, a shotgun, and knives. A Secret Service agent got shot. Trump said the system worked. It did not.

In this episode: 🔫 A man smuggled weapons into the hotel hosting the White House Correspondents' Dinner and opened fire on a screening area — the third attempt on Trump's life in under two years 🦺 One Secret Service agent was shot in the chest. He survived because of a bulletproof vest. The Trump administration called that a success. 🚂 Trump's read on the shooter: he's a "liberal" — because he traveled to Washington by Amtrak. 🤡 250 heavily armed "good guys with guns," helicopters, drones, magnetometers — and one man still got through. The Uvalde school had 376 officers. 19 children still died. 📊 45,000 Americans died from gun violence last year. The United Kingdom had 46 gun deaths total. We are not more mentally ill. We just have more guns. 🔒 Federal law bars undocumented immigrants from buying firearms. They commit homicide at half the rate of US-born citizens. That is what gun laws do. That is the proof. 🧠 Mental illness is not the cause. The gun industry invented that story — same playbook as Big Tobacco. Same result. 🎪 Kash Patel vomits on Wolf Blitzer's shoes. Pete Hegseth misfires. JD Vance eats. RFK Jr. brings the bear cub meat. Key figures: Donald Trump, Kash Patel, Pete Hegseth, JD Vance, RFK Jr., Cole Thomas Allen, Steven Miller, Caroline Leavitt
