Lawmakers, Democratic lawmakers in Washington are being investigated by the Department of Justice for these alleged threats against Elon Musk. And there you see some of the folks who there's one of them, Representative Robert Garcia and also Chuck Schumer's involved. They have gotten letters saying, you got to respond to us. We're taking this seriously. We don't like your language. We're going to talk about that. Also, I don't know if you've seen this story. There's a story about a fire captain out in California. This fire captain was found, as we say, just for the AI here, because we don't want to get knocked off. was found unalived and they don't know exactly what it is there. They think it may be someone close to her, but they're also concerned because she was demonized by the MAGA folks and the Trump people during the fires.
So we don't know what is going on. So this is the fire. I don't know if you remember her from the press conferences. Okay. Then we have this story, which is amazing. There is a Trump aid that the secret service, is concerned about secret service freaked out by Trump's adoring female aide. The writer is going to join us in a minute. Yes, it is juicy. It is salacious. We're going to spill the tea. This is from The Daily Beast. And then another L for our brothers and sisters who are federal workers. This judge has ruled against the union's bid to block mass federal layoffs by Trump. The case was a broader suit brought against the Trump administration over its plans to dismiss both probationary workers and thousands of other government workers.
They're saying it's simply just not the right venue in federal court. We're going to go through all of that. What the hell is going on in our country, in this world? Joining me now to help me get through all of this is Ms. Recy Colbert. She is the host of the Recy Colbert Show on Sirius XM Radio. Recy, thank you very, very much. How are you?

Bonjour. You know I'm from Louisiana, so you know. Hey, I'm just a little patois in there.
I know that's French.
Where do we start? Shall we start with a story as we're waiting on the writer? I don't know if you read it from the Daily Beast. Did you read it?
Oh, yeah. I got into it, honey.
So let's go through the story. Reese and I will go through and then hopefully the writer will join us as we go through. So they're saying Dan Ladden Hall is the writer. He's a breaking news editor over at the Daily Beast. And he's saying the Secret Service is freaked out by Donald Trump's adoring female aide. Again, this is their reporting. And then they have labeled it too close for comfort. Now I'm saying Melania, Melania. So here's what it says. The Secret Service became concerned about a devoted female Trump aide. Can we scroll up on this? To the point where they considered her a potential danger to herself as well as the president. That is according to a report. An excerpt from Michael Wolff's forthcoming book chronicling Donald Trump's return to power published by Vanity Fair includes alleged details of the president's relationship.
I don't know what they mean by relationship. With Natalie Harp. Natalie Harp is a. former One America News Network anchor who joined Trump's campaign in 2022. Recy, stand by.
