  FULL SHOW: Cornell University allegations; Jack Smith tracking Trump. 06.10.2026 1h 42min

  The Democrats are getting pretty tired of Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and how he’s representing their party. President Trump, at his latest campaign rally, took a shot at Gavin Newsom, warning that if Iran attacks anywhere in the U.S., it would be California. Mark has updates on the latest from attorneys and witnesses about Jane Doe, the victim in the Cornell University fraternity house rape case from 2024. There are questions about why Governor Hochul picked AG Tish James to handle the prosecution, especially with Letitia James running for reelection this year. Ever feel like you’re paying more than you should for certain things? Mark shares a story about the Marriott Hotel that might explain why. Former special counsel Jack Smith is under fire for going after Trump over classified documents at Mar-a-Lago, and there are claims Smith has been watching Melania Trump closely. FBI Director Christopher Wray reportedly sent a note to former Attorney General Merrick Garland about surveillance on parts of Trump’s family. Mark also breaks down what happened at the New York City Council’s meeting on AI, and just how much detail they got into. Mark interviews Boston radio host Howie Carr. They talk about the “Republican seven”; even though they’re behind in the polls for the midterms, they might still come out strong. They also discuss the Cornell University rape case, including Jane Doe’s statement that she drank with the boys at the frat house, and whether Letitia James should be handling the case. With the merger of Paramount and Warner Brothers Discovery done, what’s next for CNN? Barack Obama is heading to Michigan to campaign for Abdul El-Sayed, joining AOC and Kamala Harris. President Trump has come up with nicknames for people again, and Mark explains why he does this. There’s a look back at CNN’s history, including the days of “Larry King Live.” Jim Bakker, the televangelist who was involved in all those scandals, has died at 86. Mark interviews streaming host Bill O’Reilly. Bill thinks Iran should be punished as harshly as possible by the U.S. for its alleged connection to the latest Fly Dubai terrorist attack. President Trump has some big decisions to make about the country’s future—and what will he do after the White House? Bill also points out that neither party seems to have a real plan to lower kitchen-table costs for Americans.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
