Ep. 62 | Trump Targets Census, DOJ Secret Epstein meeting, and Ft. Stewart Shooting

A lot of news today! From a shooting at Fort Stewart that could have been so much worse to Trump dropping truth bombs about a new census (thank you for your attention to this matter 🙄), we're covering it all in our signature lightning round style.

Rachel and I break down the Texas Democrats' dramatic escape to Illinois (again!), discuss Trump's anti-debanking plans, and get into the rumored Trump-Putin-Zelensky meeting that has everyone talking. Plus, we're calling out CNN for their completely fabricated story about a VP meeting, diving into Kamala's upcoming tell-all book, and debating whether Trump's White House ballroom renovation is genius or just too much gold.

Warning: Contains discussions of Chick-fil-A cookies, Spencer Pratt obsessions, and Rachel's very strong feelings about styrofoam cups. You've been warned!

Episode Highlights:

• Fort Stewart Shooting Update - Six soldiers shot but all expected to survive, with details emerging about the shooter's background and potential motives
• Trump's Census Announcement - President instructs Commerce Department to conduct new census excluding illegal immigrants, stirring redistricting debates
• Texas Democrats on the Run (Again) - 50+ lawmakers flee to Illinois to avoid redistricting vote, facing $500 daily fines and potential FBI involvement
• CNN's Fake News Fumble - Network reports false story about VP meeting on Epstein strategy, gets immediately debunked by Vance's office
• Kamala's Campaign Tell-All - Former VP announces book about her 107-day campaign with promises to share "what it takes to move forward"
