  Oil prices are down today as the Fed raises interest rates. Benjamin Netanyahu is heading to New York City next week, and Mayor Mamdani is standing by his views on Bibi. Democrats are also reacting to President Trump’s idea to replace the modernist sculpture in front of the Smithsonian in Washington, D.C., with a statue of George Washington. Mark talks about Mamdani’s new plan to bring 17 public bathrooms to neighborhoods across New York City. There will also be a big 60 Minutes interview this weekend with Patrick Clancy, Lindsay Clancy’s partner. Singer Macklemore has apologized to Jewish people following his antisemitic comments. Some fans are also asking for refunds because of the controversy surrounding his recent concert. President Trump wants his name added to the Kennedy Center and has talked about tearing it down if that doesn’t happen. Mark also talks about Trump’s building projects, including the helipad. Princess Diana’s brother has released a new book about her marriage to King Charles III. Mark interviews economist Steve Moore. Steve talks about some of the economic issues he feels the mainstream media isn’t covering. He points to families making around $80,000 a year in 2025 and discusses how they were doing financially. Steve also talks about the Fed’s decision to raise interest rates by 25 basis points and looks at Kevin Warsh’s statement following the decision. New York AG Letitia James is in a feud with President Trump over the valuation of his Mar-a-Lago estate, with Letitia alleging that he is not telling the truth about a loan from the bank that he requested for the appraisal. Will Mamdani’s new bathrooms around New York have soap and toilet paper in them daily? One of Kamala Harris’s teammates came out and said it was a lie at one of the rallies she put on, claiming Beyoncé was commuting and didn’t show up. It was all a lie to get people in the door. Mark breaks down certain polls that have Kamala Harris and Pete Buttigieg in first and second place among the 2028 candidates. Mamdani’s “Freeze the Rent” policy may have issues with the community board in New York for renters. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nick Reiner, who murdered his parents, Rob Reiner and Michelle Reiner, may remain in prison forever for what he did, but the death penalty is most likely off the table for Nick.  Ever wonder why CNN has such low ratings? It could be due to how some of its hosts act, like Jake Tapper going fly fishing with Gavin Newsom. President Trump likes to put his name on a lot of things. Presidents over the years have a history of cursing, and Mark explains which presidents did it more or less. 60 Minutes went back to its old formula this past weekend, and it looks good!

Closing the beaches and some other places during the pandemic may not have been the best idea by some politicians. Has Mitt Romney paid his taxes?  Mark interviews author Ann Coulter. Ann believes that President Trump should focus on political issues like the war in Iran and affordability rather than putting his name on things to help the GOP. Mark and Ann dive into how the EU runs differently politically. Ann isn't a big fan of FLOCK cameras. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
