The Bulwark Podcast - Bill Kristol: Trump Is a Moral Monster

The man who cavorted with Jeffrey Epstein for 15 years never even bothers to feign empathy for Epstein's victims—even a sociopath would fake it. And neither Trump nor his administration and supporters can get their talking points straight on the scandal: The files are a hoax, but Ghislaine Maxwell is going to name names; she's a horrible person, but the public is supposed to believe her; POTUS didn't go to Epstein's island but it would have been a "privilege" if he had. Meanwhile, Trump is tying himself in knots on Gaza and Russia. Plus, for our audio listeners, former model Stacey Williams tells Tim about briefly dating Epstein, getting groped by Trump, and why she's going public with her story.

Bill Kristol and Stacey Williams join Tim Miller.

The Daily Detail - The Daily Detail Bonus Interview #2: Douglas “The Meme Guy” Mackey

Vermont Native Douglas Mackey talks about the legal victory he received in June of 2025 that ultimately maintains every Americans right to make a political joke or jest and exercise their free speech rights. 

This battle started in 2020 under the Biden DOJ over a simple MEME on social media,  and was a hard fought, costly endeavor by Mackey on behalf of defending the First Amendment we hold dear in the US.

1A - ‘If You Can Keep It’: Weakening Whistleblower Protections

How does the public know what's happening in the federal government, especially when it's information the government doesn't want to share?

That's where whistleblowers come in. But in 2025, the Trump administration is cracking down on these brave folks and the journalists telling their stories.

In this installment of our politics series, "If You Can Keep It," we discuss weakening whistleblower protections under President Trump and what this means for those who rely on the information they share.

Divided Argument - The Country of the Future

We finally circle back to the two big structural constitutional law cases from the last day of the term. First is Kennedy v. Braidwood Management, which upheld the appointment structure of the U.S. Preventative Services Task Force under the Affordable Care Act. Then is FCC v. Consumers' Research, which upheld the universal-service contribution scheme against a pair of non-delegation challenges. Our second-longest episode of the season.

The Commentary Magazine Podcast - The Starvation Blood Libel

We have to restrain our rage on today's podcast at the now-blanket assertions of a blood libel against Israel—that it is deliberately causing death by hunger in Gaza, conveniently everywhere simultaneous to Hamas tanking a cease-fire negotiation with Israel. The attacks on Israel's immorality are themselves the true immorality. Give a listen.
