According to a new federal court filing in Trump’s defamation case against the Wall Street Journal in Miami, Rupert Murdoch’s paper argues that not only is the Trump–Epstein birthday card story accurate, but that Trump’s reputation for making sexist, vulgar, and disgusting comments about women — including Ivanka — is so notorious that it cannot be defamed.

The Federal Reserve just issued a stinging indictment of Trump's failed economic policies by not only agreeing 12-1 --including 2 Trump devotees -- to cut the interest rates to rescue the economy now, but signaled that they will cut rates 2 MORE TIMES before the end of the year because of how bad Trump's policies really are.

As Trump fumbles in his attempts to frame Fed Governor Lisa Cook for mortgage fraud, new bombshell evidence is out that his Treasury Secretary, who has called for her dismissal, did the exact same thing with his 2 mortgages!

Kash Patel flames out and Fox News throws him an anchor not a life preserver during his Senate Judiciary Committee hearing testimony. Pam Bondi forgot that “hate speech” is just protected first amendment speech that she can’t prosecute, and Justice Sotomayor tells her so. Why hasn’t Brian Kilmeade been prosecuted by Pam Bondi for “hate speech” for calling for the “lethal injection” of unhoused Americans? Trump is on a fast track to another federal court sanction for bad faith lawsuit filing with the new “$55 billion dollar” defamation suit filed by Trump against the New York Times. And will the Epstein pedophile scandal take down 2 Administrations, as Trump visits the UK Prime Minister at the worst possible time.

When Fox News doesn't even have your back and calls for our ouster, your not long for this world. And FBI Director Kash Patel, sensing his days are numbered, was "triggered" at today's Senate Judiciary Committee oversight hearing, as the Senate Dems come for Patel and his job in the wake of his misconduct and ineptitude. Popok brings the receipts and explains how Fox threw Patel an anvil, not a life preserver.

Popok calls out the folly and bad faith filing of Trump suing his arch nemesis the New York Times for "$55 billion dollars" in a phony defamation case that looks like a dating site profile and vanity biography than an actual serious and legitimate lawsuit.

Trump has lost again in his efforts to fire Lisa Cook as Federal Reserve Governor on phony allegations of mortgage fraud to allow him to gain control over the Fed, this time with a new 2-1 decision of the DC Circuit Appeals Court. Popok explains that while Cook is already participating today in the all important interest rate setting meeting of the Fed, Trump is about to file a new emergency appeal with the Supreme Court to support his firing.

Trump fired FBI Director James Comey's daughter, Maurene Comey (Epstein/Maxwell's prosecutor), to make sure she wouldn't oppose his efforts to give his friend and convicted child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell a pardon in return for vouching for him to cover up his involvement. Now Ms. Comey fires back with a new federal lawsuit that blows the lid off the scam, and Trump's use of Laura Loomer to have Comey removed. Popok reports.

Trump --desperate to look like a King and presidential on his UK royal and prime minister visit-- can't avoid the stench of the Epstein pedophile scandal that threatens to topple his Administration and that of PM Starmer, now that it's revealed that Starmer's US Ambassador Peter Mandelson is not only close to Trump but was a defender and enabler of Epstein at the same time, even after he knew or should have known that Epstein was a pedophile. Popok explains how the sacking of the US Ambassador also shows that Trump is lying about his own involvement in the Epstein leather-bound birthday book.

Trump is exploiting for political gain the death of his icon, Charlie Kirk, to try to continue his plan to crush dissent and put the Democrats and Independents out of business, as his Administration openly violates the Hatch Act, and yet another scandal swirls around the FBI, this one not involving Epstein. Popok put it all together as Trump tries to leave his troubles behind by leaving the country for a UK state dinner.

Brazil is winning its resistance against Trump, showing a winning strategy as it defies Trump's threats and crippling economic sanctions and convicts its former President of plotting a military overthrow 4-1 and sentences him to 27 years in prison. Popok looks at how the Brazilian Supreme Court Justices have fired back at Trump and how Trump is chasing Brazil economically and emotionally into the arms of our Chinese enemies.

Trump, further undermining US foreign policy and national security, just used the power of the US Presidency to "broker" a deal to have the Chinese Government sell Tik Tok to an American buying group likely headed by his buddy Larry Ellison who owns Oracle.

The frustration of federal appellate judges with the Supreme Court leaving them twisting in the wind and refusing to write actual legal opinions by allowing Trump to exploit the shadow docket has burst into the open with the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals using a recent oral argument in a case to call out and chastise the US Supreme Court. Popok explains that never before in U.S. history has there been open warfare between the lower courts and the Supreme Court.

Kash Patel should be fired for misconduct and incompetence in his bungling of the Charlie Kirk murder "manhunt" as he refused to stop having dinner (and drinks?) with friends at an exclusive Manhattan Italian restaurant to get his facts straight about the investigation and quarterback it properly from the FBI's headquarters. And then he had the brass ones to take credit for the capture of the suspect which was caused by his family turning him in, not the FBI's sleuthing skills. Popok ties it all together on his latest hot take.

Trump's would be golf course assassin Ryan Routh is outfoxing Trump's favorite Federal Judge Aileen Cannon, acting out in Court that both proves his Insanity Defense, AND sets up a reversal on appeal as Judge Cannon struggles to control Routh acting as his own lawyer. Popok explains that representing himself is a brilliant move that lets Routh let the jury know he is "insane" without having to actually testify, while he bates Cannon into screwing up his trial for appeal.

Trump is so desperate that he gave the COURT a deadline of Monday to allow him to destroy the Federal Reserve's independence by firing Governor Cook again in a new emergency motion. Popok explains why Trump likely won't have to wait that long for the Court's answer which should be a resounding "DENIED".

Trump just caused a major economic, foreign policy and diplomatic disaster by allowing his Immigration shock troops to raid a Hyundai battery plant in Georgia and put South Korean workers in CHAINS. South Korea's President and its people are fighting back, threatening to pull future investment and calling the high tech workers, prisoners of war. Popok looks at how Trump just evoked the imagery of colonial subjugation and insulted a major Asian ally at a time when his manufacturing economy is abysmal.

As Charlie Kirk's suspected killer is apprehended, Trump,rather than console the country and pull it together at a time of national crisis and grief, found a way to be even more divisive than ever, forfeiting his right to be the consoler-in-chief, and rejecting the words of comfort and support offered by past presidents from LBJ to Reagan to Bush to Obama in similar moments.
