Summary
Aaron McIntire wraps up the week with a bombshell from Just the News: FBI Director Kash Patel uncovers a 2017 memo revealing Obama DOJ’s Sally Yates ordered a halt to a Hillary Clinton pay-to-play probe. Trump touts removing 275,000+ illegal aliens from Social Security, strengthening the system on its 90th anniversary. ICE’s deportation efforts escalate in California, rattling Gavin Newsom, while Florida opens a new “Deportation Depot.” Joe Scarborough calls out Democrats for downplaying D.C.’s crime crisis, and producer price index spikes raise inflation concerns. Plus, the weekly “Ask or Tell Me Anything” segment tackles cigars vs. pipes, AI morality, and a liberal’s Starbucks meltdown.

| 0:00.0 | It's Friday, August 15th, 2025. Even the Obama Department of Justice was trying to do its job until it wasn't anymore. |
| 0:07.5 | Gavin Newsom is really worried for real this time and ask or tell me anything next on the AM update. |
| 0:19.3 | Well, thank you for kind of making it through another week on the AM update with me. |
| 0:24.3 | It was a rocky road this week. |
| 0:26.8 | Hopefully you're hearing this in the regular venue that you're accustomed to via a podcast. |
| 0:33.1 | This week, my podcast host, that would be LibZinn or Liber or liberated syndication that's major issues across the |
| 0:40.0 | board with publishing podcast episodes they resolved those and then for my podcast as I understand it |
| 0:46.8 | from my podcast alone the AM update there was some weird problem that they had to chase down and |
| 0:52.1 | escalate and eventually they tell me they did |

| 1:25.1 | If something's wrong, then usually most of the time, |
| 1:28.4 | I'm aware of it and I'll fill you in as much as I can over at Real AM Update on X. |
| 1:34.1 | So if you haven't done so already, go ahead and give me a follow over there. |
| 1:37.0 | That's where I posted a couple of episodes this week when I wasn't able to get them up on the main feed. |
| 1:42.2 | Now let's move on with a Friday five-pack. |
