Unacceptable. Cybersecurity is (or should be?) a top priority of DHS and they should be auditing and working with every executive branch department and agency to ensure this does not happen. Malfeasance? Incompetence? State actor? Doesn’t matter, because this will only add to questions about election integrity.
WENT DARK: The @FEC's electronic filing system went down around 10 p.m. Monday, eight days before the midterms, and stayed down until 4:50 p.m. Wednesday.
That night an FEC filings officer emailed compliance firms: "We have a bad actor attempting to breach FEC systems." 🧵
School districts across Colorado are closing schools "to save money." But are they really saving money? A listener asked what happens to the teachers. You might be surprised. And, the savings can be held in your hand. It's a number no school board ever wants to tell you when it comes to savings. It's all at heckuvajob.com

When you don’t understand finance or economics, this is how you think. Adios Colorado. Taking my business to Wyoming because of these people.
Everyone in this country can get healthcare. Just walk into an ER. The question is not healthcare, the question is who is paying for healthcare. I actually find this clip to be a scary ad for what Democrats represent. Believe them when they say this because that is precisely what they current Democrat party represents.
This is what they believe and what they want. It could not be clearer the two directions this nation can take, starting on November 3rd.
Remember the blockbuster documentary about a former US Senator who allegedly hired male escorts for sex? Yeah, that was so long ago. Can't believe that hit piece didn't have legs. 🤣
I wish all former presidents would just go home. Write a book. Paint a picture. Read. Buy a ranch and go ride horses or clear brush. I could even see giving a college or university lecture occasionally, even if I disagree with them. Just stay off the campaign trail.
Two facts, then I’ll leave it and am moving on.
President Trump nominated Jay Clayton as DNI, and Senate Republicans confirmed him. No judges were involved. The memo was unclassified, Clayton wrote it so it could be shared with State Department staff, and the administration confirmed it was real.
I want this administration to win this war. Asking what happens on the fourth day of a three-day campaign is how you help that happen. If I’m wrong, I’ll say so on air.
The door’s open whenever you want to come back.
But stop the anti-Trump nonsense. If you've listened "for years" you know I support the President and his policies. Providing an objective analysis and asking what if is not being anti-Trump. It's being objective.
No. I said I will not listen in the future. I heard your entire spiel. It could have been written by any Iranian sympathizer and/or rabid anti-Trumpist. Anything to weaken him before the midterm elections. Of course he's not on the ballot but suppressing the turnout and/or strengthening the Dem vote to cede control to the House, much less the Senate, could be a a death warrant for the country. About Clayton, I have zero faith in a man who's been a swamp rat for many years and was elected to the position by corrupt SDNY judges. How did Axios, FT, WSJ even get a copy of that memo? FTR, I had been listening to your Saturday show for many years.
I'm catching flack from both sides over the same segment, and that’s the best material a host could hope for. But yours is pure insult with no argument.
So a short reply should be enough for you to contemplate today:
An hour before you posted, another listener called me an anti-Trump, anti-American propagandist over the same Iran segment. I’ll let the two of you sort out which one I am. Meanwhile, the sources and the math are all in the segment.
Since you mention not listening, here’s what I actually said this morning, @Wyntre999 ->
The sources you’re calling liars include President Trump’s own Director of National Intelligence, Jay Clayton. He’s the one who put in writing that Iranian plots against Americans have reached advanced stages. They include President Trump’s own UN ambassador, Mike Waltz, who told the FT we could be in a stalemate a year from now. They include President Trump’s own Pentagon, which counts 21 American service members dead. And they include President Trump himself, at a rally yesterday, saying “we may do another little Epic Fury.”
Those are his people. I quoted them accurately.
I also said on air that the blockade is hurting Iran badly and that Iran’s economy is in real trouble. I said I want the Iranian people to have the choice of who governs them, and that I want us to win. I gave Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent full credit for his sanctions. If you had only listened, that is.
Then I asked one question. If we hit them for three days in November, what happens on the fourth?
Twenty-one families have already buried someone. Asking for the plan is how you honor that. It’s no attack on our military. I resent the implication. My support for the US military is unassailable.
As for being joined at the hip with Bush, you may recall how that relationship ended. It’s my web address. Perhaps the irony is a little difficult for you.
If Iran folds in three days, I’ll say so on air, I’ll say I was wrong, and I’ll be the happiest guy in the building. I’d love to be wrong about this one.
You can download the podcast and listen again, since you seem to have missed so much of the analysis.
@MichaelDBrown
Your despicable undercutting of the Trump Administration vs Iran is exactly why I refuse to subscribe to you. What a disgusting attack on our country, our, military, our government. You are obviously still joined at the hip with the feckless Bush and the DemonRat obstructionists. If you don't know by this time that WSJ and FT LIES you are incompetent. I suspect it's more that you are rooting for the administration to fail. just like every media outlet in the country including WSJ, Axios, WaPo, NYT, etc.
I can't WAIT 'til you're proven WRONG and then I will never listen to your Sat show again. There's enough anti-Trump, anti-Amercian propaganda to choose from. I just turn them all off and now you're on that list as well.
Whatever....all I see is one heckuva' bar, @JamesCarville

This is what they voted for so let them have it. Wait until one of these little trust fund babies, or even a grown ass adult, decides to sell some property and runs into this morass. Then we'll see how committed they are to being an idiot.
🚨 SOCIALISM IS HERE: The NYC Council just voted to put nonprofits at the FRONT of the line when you sell your own building.
The vote was 38 to 9.
When an owner of a covered building decides to sell, city-certified nonprofits get 20 days to say they're interested and 70 more to make an offer.
That's 90 days of the government picking who gets first shot at YOUR property.
Even after that, the nonprofit can come back and MATCH any outside offer you get.
About 2,100 buildings are covered, and Mayor Zohran Mamdani has pledged to sign it.
None of this should surprise anyone. Back in 2021, Mamdani called for the "full de-commodification" of housing.
He told you exactly what he believed. Now he's doing it.
You bought it. You paid for it. You carry the costs.
But in Mamdani's New York, City Hall decides who gets to buy it.
That's not housing policy. That's SOCIALISM.
Hello, Colorado. This is exactly what we will get if you Approve 7A. No incentive exists for Sal Pace to ever actually build a train from Ft Collins to Pueblo because the grift is in the incessant studies of everything engineering or environmental or now even “social” impact. Those consults get paid over and over and over while the transit board gets paid to keep the grift going. The train was never the intended purpose. It was the vehicle. Not a vehicle for you, but for the grift. Pay attention.
I’ve seen this video numerous times on my timeline. Here is what most people miss. In the context of this very moment, that you are watching, the cops “may” be overreacting. It is difficult to tell. Are they trying to arrest them? Are they resisting?
That’s not the problem as I see it. What you are watching, undoubtedly, is what the cops SHOULD HAVE BEEN DOING while the riots were taking place, in order to quell the uprising and arrest the lawbreakers.
Where were you before?

Countless polls are designed simply to influence voting behavior. Pollsters have a million different tricks to game a result.
Kalshi and Polymarket, etc are much more accurate than lone polls. They can aggregate dispersed information into a probability.
So when you're reading about the midterms, my advice would be to ignore the polls but tune into the prediction markets.
Now, it's possible that entities can come into prediction markets with big volume to try to game the system, but smart traders can arbitrage that volume, so the issue generally works itself out.
So yes, the polls are not really worth your time in 2026.
I agree wholeheartedly. Except, he is free to do that, just as I am free to tell everyone that I think he is a disrespectful asshole. And while we’re watching this, what’s with the rest of the team? Too much Adderall? You can’t stand still for 90 seconds?
You know… I will never understand people who have been given so much by this country, who have achieved extraordinary wealth and success under liberties paid for in American blood, yet choose to so blatantly disrespect the flag that represents them.
LeBron James has enjoyed opportunities and privileges most Americans could only dream of, yet here he is practicing his golf swing during the National Anthem.
Meanwhile, thousands of American families have received that same flag, folded over the coffins of those who gave their lives defending everything it represents.
The irony of disrespecting the very symbol of the sacrifices that secured his right to do so is apparently lost on him.
It certainly isn’t lost on me.
I'll wait and (maybe) watch the documentary, but I find it appalling how the left has gone full circle, advocating for gay rights, and then suddenly using someone's sexuality as an attack vector because someone may be.....gay! Tying sexual preferences to national security, after telling us for decades sexual preferences are immaterial, and to be celebrated, now it is used to attack someone in the name of national security. And, if it turns out to be a recently deceased US Senator, even worse.
