EXCLUSIVE: Rolex says Trump “joked” his invite to their private box at the U.S. Open was to get favorable tariff terms for Switzerland, a quip that “brought a round of laughter all around."

Perryman: With respect to the Homan situation, this is highly concerning. It’s, as you said, a tale as old as time. We’ve requested that information through the Freedom of Information Act, and if the government doesn’t respond, we’ll sue.

Morelle: Here’s the problem whenever the president speaks—and I hate to make light of this because he’s the president—but it’s almost always just fantasy. This week he’s suddenly a scientist, telling us what we should do for a fever if you’re a pregnant woman. It’s an endless series of baloney.

The rules have changed. Mike Johnson wants to wait until the official results come in October 14th to swear in Grijalva.

Why is MAGA Mike so afraid to swear in Congresswoman-elect Grijalva? Worried about that Epstein discharge petition, Mike?

NEWS: Nexstar joins Sinclair and announces Jimmy Kimmel Live! is returning to its local ABC affiliates

Grijalva: I was looking at the example of now-Representative Walkinshaw from Virginia, who was elected two weeks ago Tuesday. The following Wednesday—less than 24 hours later—he was sworn in, with unofficial results. So for me, apparently the rules have now changed in just two weeks.

BREAKING: Sinclair FOLDS and ends its preemption of Jimmy Kimmel Live! The show will return tonight on Sinclair's ABC affiliates.

Navarro: And I think some of the liberals, some of the left wing Democratic podcasts are doing much better now. MeidasTouch is actually outdoing some of the right wing ones that used to be number one

🚨 BREAKING: James Comey posts a video statement following his indictment "My family and I have known for years that there are costs to standing up to Donald Trump...But I'm not afraid. And I hope you're not either...And I'm innocent. So let's have a trial and keep the faith."

Trump couldn’t understand why “people didn’t understand that Palm Beach in the 90s was a different time.” Wow. Wow. Wow.

Gupta: It is safe. That’s what the best-quality research shows. And how irresponsible, using the podium of the WH to put this out there when you’re not even offering an alternative. That is dangerous. An untreated fever is dangerous. Untreated pain in pregnancy is dangerous.

Jordy: A makeup-wearing, orange-faced, clown-looking, cognitively addled Trump spewed deeply disturbing shit based not on facts but vibes. The way he talks to pregnant women is predatory, basically telling them to suck it up. Dude, back off. You’re an abuser, a predator, and you’re insane.

It’s UNCOVERED day! @meidastouch.com youtube.com/live/HUFK4Nd...

Jeffries: The government is scheduled to shut down on October 1st. The House was scheduled to vote and be present in Washington, D.C. on Monday, September 29th, and Tuesday, September 30th, in advance of the possible shutdown. And Mike Johnson has said, stay at home. That’s ridiculous.

Jeffries: The continuing effort by Donald Trump and the Republicans to shut down the federal government is because they want to continue their effort to gut the healthcare of the American people. Our position is simple: cancel the cuts, lower the costs, save healthcare.

I said this on the pod last night and I know it’s for a super niche audience overlap but there’s just no fucking way that we’re living in the sacred timeline 😩

Meiselas: Brazil convicted Trump ally Jair Bolsonaro, sentencing him to 25+ years. Trump’s regime just retaliated by slapping Magnitsky Act sanctions on the judge’s wife and hitting Brazil with 50% tariffs—punishing U.S. farmers as China scoops up Brazil’s soybeans.

Brett Meiselas: Trump always tries to exploit tragedy or people’s pain. You can always be sure that when tragedy strikes, when people are fearful, Donald Trump will be there exploiting it to his political advantage. Trump has one mode: here are people in pain, let me manipulate and exploit them.

Meiselas: We need moral clarity. Calling out Trump may cause short-term pain for you as a corporation, but in the long run you'll be better off. True leadership means making tough choices, speaking out under threat, and standing against the lies.

NEWS: @democracyforward.org has filed a FOIA requesting the DOJ & FBI to release the recording of Trump’s “Border Czar” Tom Homan allegedly pocketing $50K from undercover agents

never been more grateful for Dr. @vinguptamd.bsky.social than I am after watching this horrifying Trump presser.

Meiselas: Trump and the MAGA Republicans want a shutdown. That’s why Johnson is literally sending Republicans into hiding—just like they did over the summer to hide the Epstein files.

Gupta: The impacts of this—H-1B visas—are going to show up once Trump is out of office. If fewer people are able to take those jobs, what happens? We’re just not going to have enough people to meet the demand for medical services.. And the irony here is it’ll probably impact red states more

Schiff: That claim was, I think, the most astounding: according to Kash Patel, the Epstein list has only one name on it — Jeffrey Epstein. We now have someone incompetent running the FBI.

Angus: Trump, says lumber from Canadian mills represents a national security threat. You’d use that language about buddy going down to the Home Depot in Arkansas to buy some 2x4s?

At the @saveamericamvmt.bsky.social launch of the liberty vans campaign in MacArthur Park, Los Angeles. Mayor Karen Bass speaking right now. ICE carried out a brutal raid here a few months ago. This is LA’s answer. I LOVE THIS CITY.

🚨 MAJOR BREAKING A federal judge has THROWN OUT Donald Trump's $15 billion lawsuit against the New York Times, ruling that the lawsuit lacked "any legitimate legal claims." The judge is giving Trump 28 days to file another version of the lawsuit.

Phang: Now, it’s pretty obvious on its face that this is just censorship, plain and simple. After all, if you’re not spewing Trump-administration-approved propaganda, then you’re not going to have access to the American people. That’s the message being sent.

Brett Meiselas: Right-wing Republicans have been doing this for a while also. They've been responsible for a lot of the so-called cancel culture also, even though they pretend not to be. Do you remember after 9/11, they canceled French fries…

It’s UNCOVERED day! @meidastouch.com youtube.com/live/m07kC_n...

sorry not sorry, Joe. 🇺🇸🦅

"This type of language spurs on depraved people, deranged people who who take that as a cue." Right, Speaker Johnson?

Booker: Here’s the thing, I think you’re not going to be around long. I think this might be your last oversight hearing. This may the last time I have a hearing with you because I don’t think you’re long for this job.

Meiselas: Your name is on Trump’s social media almost on an hourly basis, whether it's claiming that he saved Los Angeles by turning on a magical faucet.. . Newsom: It's a reminder of what we're up against, mis and disinformation—just complete bullshit.

Reporter: What do you make of Bondi saying she is going to go after hate speech, a lot of your allies say hate speech is free speech. Trump: Probably go after people like you, you treat me unfairly, you have hate in your heart. ABC paid me $16 million for a form of hate speech,

President Trump warns an Australian reporter that he’s hurting Australia because he asked him about his business activity: You are hurting Australia very much right now. They want to get along with me. Your leader is coming to see me soon, I'm going to tell him about you.

Phang: The South Koreans are here to help build, to help train, to help get this thing up and running so 8,500 Americans can have jobs. But no — the Trump administration, the dumbasses with their heads so far up their asses when it comes to immigration, are just sitting there rounding people up…

Platner: I think Collins has tried to create this charade in which she’s always the moderate voice in the room. But that’s nonsense, and everybody knows it’s nonsense. Susan Collins does not represent the interests of working Mainers

Reporter: Do you think it would have been fitting to lower the flags for Melissa Hortman who was killed as well? Trump: Uh, I’m not familiar, who?
