Hello everybody, welcome to the show. We start with something good because support comes from Z Biotics. Listen, I don't say this lightly, this stuff actually works, okay? Z Biotics is the world's first pre-alcohol probiotic drink and it has been a total game changer for me. Here's why. When you drink, alcohol converts into a toxic byproduct right in your gut. It is that buildup that's really what causes those rough mornings. Well, Z Biotics helps your body break that stuff down while you sleep, and so you wake up feeling yourself again. Now, I tried it before for the first time with friends at a dinner party, had a glass of wine or two, and the next morning, I was up, clear-headed, and ready to work.
So just make Z Biotics your first drink of the night. Make it your first drink of the night, and make sure you drink responsibly, and then you're going to feel your best tomorrow, okay?

Ice tea right now. Because, look, I'm not even, this is a very serious story. And so I take no glee in this. I believe that this could, if it keeps going the way that it's going,
This could end MAGA or Donald Trump. Could. Remember? Could. Because this feels different. But as a survivor of abuse, I take no glee in this, in the downfall of Donald Trump. You guys know I don't care for his brand of politics. I don't care for all the lying. And it really puts me... Look, it sets my teeth on edge thinking... what he could have done to uh some of these young women and you know the whole eugene carroll of it all as a survivor it just makes me grow up so i take no glee in this because i know that there are victims or survivors on the other side and we're gonna uh talk about them in the meantime though I want to get to this big story. By the way, hit the like, hit the thumbs up. We're so glad that you're here.
I want to get to Tara Palmieri. Tara Palmieri is an incredible journalist. She is a veteran journalist and author of The Red Letter on Substack and the host of The Tara Palmieri Show here on YouTube. And she's doing the best reporting, I believe, on this Jeffrey Epstein case. Today was a big day. I think this is monumental. Go ahead. You tell me what you think, Tara.
Yeah, I think thank you for having me, Don. Appreciate that. Thanks for staying on this story, too, and being so committed to it. I got a lot of texts this morning from survivors of Jeffrey Epstein thinking, saying, this is everything to them. This is a smoking gun. This is... hopefully for them, accountability, justice. And by noon, you've got the president's defenders out there saying, oh, this is ridiculous. This is using a woman who's dead and can't even speak for herself, Virginia Giuffre, to take away from the contents of the emails that tie him to a victim. And so I just, I mean, everything in the Epstein story somehow gets muddled. It is never clear cut. There's just so many political motives, but I sense so much desperation from the White House.
I mean, from all of the reporting, the way he was furiously calling Lauren Boebert and Nancy Mays, thinking that he could pressure them to not release the discharge petition. to remove their name.
Explain to our, explain to this, to our viewers and subscribers what happened. So about the calling of Lauren Bobert and who else was it?
And Nancy Mays.
Nancy Mace, right. Got to get them to change it from change their, I guess, vote to not allowing it to be released. Sorry. Go ahead. Can you explain to them?
For sure. I mean, it's it's a really complicated measure. But like if the speaker will not allow you to bring a house, a bill to the House floor, then you can do a discharge petition. You just have to get 218 votes. And so Thomas Massey and he's a Republican and Ro Khanna Democrat.
