Tonight we’re digging into the latest bombshell drop in the Epstein files, and it’s deeply disturbing. Newly released documents mention allegations of sexual assault involving Donald Trump, raising urgent questions about what has been kept from the public and why these materials are only surfacing now. But in a stunning twist, the DOJ is now claiming that some of the very documents it released may not be legitimate. So what are we supposed to believe? Who vetted this material? And why does every step of this process seem to deepen confusion rather than deliver clarity? We’ll break down what the documents actually say, what’s being questioned, and why this unfolding mess is fueling fears of incompetence, immorality, and a system incapable of telling the truth.

Don breaks down some of the most revealing documents to emerge from the latest batch of Epstein files, including letters and correspondence that raise serious questions and do not look good for Donald Trump. Don walks through what these documents show, why they matter, and how they complicate the ongoing efforts to downplay Trump’s connections to Epstein. As more material becomes public, the denials are getting harder to sustain, and the calls for accountability are growing louder. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This morning we’re breaking down the latest batch of Epstein files, and once again, they contain multiple references to Donald Trump. At this point, the administration’s continued denial of Trump’s ties to Epstein is beyond implausible. It’s absurd. We’ll walk through what the newly released documents actually show, why they matter, and whether there’s any realistic path to accountability for those named. Then we pivot to the media meltdown inside MAGA world. From the chaos at the Turning Point USA summit to escalating wars within MAGA’s so-called “independent media,” the movement is fracturing in public. The infighting, the ego clashes, the contradictions, it’s all coming apart in real time. Joining us to break it all down is Will Sommer of The Bulwark, who helps us connect the dots between the Epstein revelations and a MAGA media ecosystem that’s clearly not doing well.

Tonight we’re diving headfirst into what many are calling the Epstein cover-up, and the scope of it is staggering. The delays, the redactions, the missing materials, the shifting explanations, the attempts to conceal information have become impossible to ignore. For a growing number of people, this now feels worse than Watergate, not because of a single act, but because of the sustained effort to keep the full truth from the public. And now, there’s yet another disturbing twist: a new video has surfaced of Jeffrey Epstein inside his jail cell. The footage raises more questions than it answers, and the DOJ has offered no explanation, no clarity, and no transparency about what the public is seeing or why this material is only emerging now. Why has transparency been resisted at every turn? Who is being protected? And will anyone connected to this ever face real accountability? This episode is sponsored by ZBiotics.

What does this say about the direction CBS is taking? Who gets to decide what stories the public is allowed to see? A necessary conversation about media power, integrity, and the cost of speaking truth inside legacy newsrooms. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This morning we’re diving into the fallout from the long-awaited release of the Epstein files, and for many, it feels like a gut punch. On Friday, the DOJ released the files after a months-long bipartisan push and congressional demand for full transparency. But what came out was heavily redacted, with more missing than revealed. For survivors and advocates who hoped this moment would finally bring justice and accountability, the release felt like a slap in the face. To make matters worse, the DOJ then removed certain images that had already been made public, only to quietly re-release them later. The confusion, the reversals, and the omissions have only fueled suspicion. So what’s being hidden? Why all the redactions? And why does it seem like there’s such an aggressive effort to shield Donald Trump? This episode is sponsored by ZBiotics.
