Maggie Haberman & Jonathan Swan – On “Regime Change” & Inside The Trump Presidency | The Daily Show

New York Times reporters and authors of the new book “Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump,” Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan, sit down with Jon Stewart to discuss the surprising revelations they uncovered about the Trump administration, like the president being absent from the room when his own team discussed the Epstein files, as well as the motivation behind controversial moves like the tariff policy rollout and the Iran war. They also speak to how Trump controls the terms when reporters reach him on his cell phone and compare his first term to his second, which they describe as a story of hubris, built on gut feelings and belief from his cabinet that he is someone of destiny – because who else can survive four indictments and two assassination attempts to win the presidency a second time?

Hitler Fan Stars In TN Gov Candidate’s Ads [VIDEO]

Hitler Fan Stars In TN Gov Candidate’s Ads [VIDEO]

June 23, 2026

Nashville’s CBS affiliate reports:

He calls Jews “a malevolent force throughout history,” praises Adolf Hitler as “a great man,” and urges Black Americans to “return to Africa.” Despite that history of hateful comments, he has now become the star of a pair of social-media videos for Tennessee Republican candidate for governor Monty Fritts [photo].

Still, Dane Chisholm, 28, of Rogersville, Tenn., is completely unapologetic about his controversial views. “For the soft and fake ‘Conservatives’ who worry about being called homophobic, racist or Nazi … go sit quietly in a corner,” Chisholm wrote in a June 20 post on X. “The real Christian men – who will save this world – are going to start handling things.”

Fritts, who is running an unapologetically Christian nationalist campaign, did not respond to a text from NewsChannel 5 Investigates about the star of his social-media posts.

Read the full article. Watch the unreal video below.

State Rep. Monty Fritts appeared here in January 2026 when he called for executing supporters of trans healthcare, saying that “such killings align with scripture.”

Fritts appeared here in March 2025 when the Tennessee House advanced his bill declaring July 2025 a “month of fasting and prayer for the physically able and spiritually inclined.”

Last year Fritts sponsored a “chemtrails” bill that would criminalize weather control with fines of “$100,000 per violation.”

Fritts appeared here in January 2025 for his bill making it a felony for state officials to adopt pro-migrant policies.

Fritts first appeared here in 2023 when the Tennessee House approved his bill allowing officiants to refuse to conduct same-sex, interfaith, and interracial marriages.

Gramps was deported to America after dodging the draft in Germany. Trump likes to lie and say gramps fought in WWI and killed hundreds of American, British, and French soldiers. Truth is Gramps was already running brothels in the US and Canada about ten years before that war even began.

Mamdani’s Rise Has Corporate Dems AND Republicans Totally Shook

Sam. Emma, and crew talk about the popularity of the DSA who want to use government to help the the people not just the wealthy few.  Government working for the people.  Notice how Chris Christy has to deny everything that Mamdani has managed to get done.  Even though the evidence is documented he has to deny it.  Donna Brazile who is a total corporate democrat who supports the entrenched establishment leadership wouldn’t speak up for Mamdani.   Only the young guy did and even as he presented the facts the host let Christy talk all over him and mock him.   Hugs

‘Brink of constitutional crisis’: DOJ declines to end $1.8B ‘anti-weaponization’ fund in writing

 

On Friday, the Trump administration declined to submit a court-requested sworn declaration to a federal judge, noting that the $1.8 billion so-called “anti-weaponization” fund was officially obsolete. Instead of solidifying that claim in writing, the DOJ wrote in a notice to the court, “Such declarations are unnecessary and the compelled testimony of senior officials from the Executive Branch implicates serious separation of powers concerns.”
