Nolan Higdon and Ron Placone return for the week of 8/12 to break down a packed week of Florida primary shakeups, shifting media narratives, press freedom battles, and political controversies. We analyze the latest developments across elections, national security, media spin, and government transparency.
We dissect major Florida primary results—including a democratic socialist upset victory and establishment double standards—alongside White House clashes with reporters, ABC’s First Amendment lawsuit against the FCC, viral candidate debate blunders, and a former Fauci adviser pleading guilty in a COVID-19 record concealment case. Plus, we cover historic drought levels at Lake Powell, unvetted “fake polling” social experiments, and Trump’s planned appearance on Michael Cohen’s radio show.
