Summary

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.
