I joined The Jim Acosta Show alongside Miles Taylor for a candid and wide-ranging conversation on the mounting crises we’re facing—from Trump’s unraveling over the Epstein scandal to the corruption hiding in plain sight, like the $400 million Qatari jet quietly funneled through the Pentagon. We also dove into Texas’s brazen redistricting moves, and the broader question of whether our democracy can withstand another round of chaos. Elise Labott joins Jim later in the episode to discuss the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza. It’s a raw, urgent episode—and a reminder that silence and exhaustion aren’t options.
Just as we recorded, I also want to flag a searing statement from the family of Virginia Giuffre, one of the victims in this horrifying Epstein saga: “The government and the President should never consider giving Ghislaine Maxwell any leniency... she was convicted for only a fraction of the crimes she actually committed.” As Trump flirts with a pardon, the victims’ voices are a stark reminder of the truth he’s trying to erase. We must continue to stand by the victims.
