Tonight we’re taking a hard look at the new, unsettling video of the ICE shooting in Minneapolis which resulted in the death of 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. While federal officials insist the agent acted in self-defense, multiple videos and eyewitness accounts raise serious questions about that narrative and what actually unfolded on the street. To help unpack it all, Don is joined by friend of the show Jolly for a detailed breakdown of what the video shows, what it doesn’t show, and why this incident has ignited national outrage.

This morning we’re continuing our coverage of the horrific Minneapolis ICE shooting, and the situation appears to be escalating. Despite the outrage and unanswered questions, immigration enforcement operations haven’t slowed. There are now reports of another shooting in Portland, Oregon, and federal agents terrorizing a high school in Minneapolis, sending fear through communities already on edge. We’ll walk through what’s being reported, what’s been confirmed, and where the facts still need clarity. Why does this keep happening? Will anyone ever face accountability? And what can people actually do to push back against violence, intimidation, and the erosion of truth? We're joined by friends of the show Reecie Colbert and Clay Cane to break it all down.

Tonight we’re continuing our coverage of the Minneapolis ICE shooting, and the situation is getting even more troubling. New reporting shows the Federal Bureau of Investigation is now blocking state investigators from participating in the case, fueling serious concerns about transparency and the possibility of a cover-up. The shooter has been identified, yet MAGA officials are already racing to justify and excuse his actions, despite mounting evidence and unanswered questions. Why are state authorities being sidelined? Who is controlling the narrative? And will there ever be real accountability, or are we being asked to accept explanations that don’t match the facts? We’ll break down what’s known, what’s being withheld, and why trust in this administration is eroding by the hour. This episode is sponsored by Wildgrain.

This morning we’re continuing our coverage of the horrific ICE shooting in Minneapolis, where an ICE agent shot and killed a U.S. citizen. The incident has sparked outrage, and almost immediately, the Trump administration and Kristi Noem began pushing a revised narrative, spreading claims about the victim and the events that do not align with the video evidence that’s now public. We’ll break down what is known so far, what the footage shows, and how misinformation is being used to muddy the facts and deflect responsibility. Why is the story changing so quickly? Who benefits from that confusion? And most importantly, will the shooter face real accountability, or will this be another case swept aside? This episode is sponsored by Wildgrain.

Don revisits January 6th and confronts the ongoing effort by Donald Trump and the MAGA movement to rewrite history. From minimizing the violence to denying what millions watched unfold in real time, these revisionist narratives aim to erase the reality of that day. This was an attack on the U.S. Capitol fueled by lies. Don breaks down what actually happened, why the facts still matter, and how attempts to sanitize or ignore the violence pose a real danger to accountability and democratic norms. This isn’t about partisan spin. It’s about memory, truth, and refusing to let misinformation replace documented history. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Tonight we’re confronting a horrific and deeply disturbing incident in Minneapolis, where an ICE agent shot a woman while she was in her car. Almost immediately, Donald Trump and Kristi Noem began spreading claims that the woman ran over an ICE agent, a claim that does not align with the video evidence that has circulated publicly. This rush to distort what happened in order to justify lethal force is as upsetting as the incident itself. Don is joined by a panel of legal experts to break down what is known so far, what the video shows, and how misinformation spreads at lightning speed in the MAGA media ecosystem to excuse violence and evade accountability. When does this stop? Will they ever be held accountable? And how do we stand against lies being used to defend something so profoundly wrong? Join us live for a necessary, hard conversation about truth, justice, and what it will take to push back against this level of cruelty and disinformation. This episode is sponsored by Wildgrain.

Don sits down with Mike Nellis to talk about the state of the country and the chaos shaping this political moment. They dig into Donald Trump’s ongoing efforts to obscure and downplay the Epstein files, why transparency keeps being resisted, and what that says about power and accountability. The conversation then turns to Trump’s bizarre and persistent obsession with taking over Greenland, a reminder of how casually some people treat other nations, as assets to be claimed, not sovereign places with people and history. Finally, Don and Mike look ahead to the midterms and beyond, breaking down what Democrats should be doing right now: messaging, strategy, priorities, and how to meet voters where they actually are instead of where consultants wish they were.

This morning, we’re taking a hard look at the disappointing state of the mainstream media and what happens when journalism stops holding power to account. Once considered a pillar of journalistic integrity, CBS now appears to be a shell of what it once was. Under the influence of figures like Bari Weiss, the network increasingly resembles something closer to state-run media, full of praise for those in power, with little to no meaningful pushback. So what does this shift mean for democracy? Who is the media actually serving right now? And where do we go when trust in journalism continues to erode? Don is joined by friend of the show Oliver Darcy to break it all down, why this matters, how we got here, and what accountability is supposed to look like when the press is doing its job.

They dig into growing concerns about Donald Trump’s mental decline, the escalating and dangerous situation involving Venezuela and Trump’s capture of Nicolás Maduro, and the continued fallout from the Epstein files, which refuse to fade despite repeated efforts to downplay their significance. From foreign policy chaos to unanswered questions about accountability at home, Don and Michael break down how all of these threads intersect and what they reveal about power, instability, and where the country may be headed next.

Tonight we’re confronting a deeply disturbing case of brutality and abuse inside ICE detention centers. We’re joined by the wife of a man currently being held in one of these facilities, who describes a pattern of abuse, medical neglect, and silence as her family desperately tries to get answers. This is not an isolated story. It raises urgent questions about oversight, accountability, and how such inhumanity is being allowed to continue under the authority of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. What protections exist for people in custody? Why are families kept in the dark? And what can be done right now to stop the harm? Join us live as we listen, examine the facts, and talk about the paths forward for accountability, transparency, and action. This episode is sponsored by Wildgrain.
