Is the Federal Reserve’s Jerome Powell set to leave his position as chair? While President Trump can’t fire the Federal Reserve chair, chatter in D.C. suggests an open position may be coming sooner rather than later.

While the Genius Act has parts that seem beneficial, Glenn warns that the bill could easily lead to the implementation of a central bank digital currency. Rep.

Glenn and Pat start the show with praise for Secretary of State Marco Rubio and the job he is doing. President Trump gave Putin 50 days to make a peace deal with Ukraine, and Glenn points out what happened the last time Trump gave a country a deadline that was not met. Glenn and Pat discuss the oligarchy that exists on the Left. J.P. Decker, Mercury One executive director, joins to discuss what Mercury One observed on the ground in Kerrville, Texas, and the devastating floods that have affected the area. The man accused of killing a Minnesota politician and wounding another claims to be a pro-life Trump supporter, but why did he work for Democrats? ICE agents are wearing masks to shield their identities, and Democrats are losing their minds. Glenn highlights a recent piece written by Blaze Media D.C. correspondent Christopher Bedford that exposes the various attacks the Left has launched against ICE agents during immigration raids. Glenn issues a warning: Republicans have to stay united. Is Islamism taking over the Democratic Party? Glenn and Pat further discuss the Trump administration's botched release of the Epstein files as Glenn outlines why MAGA cares so much about this issue. Editor's note: Glenn misremembered some details about the Red Cross' 9/11 fundraising scandal. While it's true the group initially planned to give only one-third of all donations to relief efforts, it reversed course after the scandal and spent all Liberty Funds on 9/11 victims and their families.
