  • Hunter Biden: “I’m Exhausted By The Left” 02.10.2026 41min
    Hunter Biden like you haven’t heard him before. In this unfiltered conversation, he goes off on the Trump family, says there’s “literally no comparison” between his business dealings and theirs, explains why he’d gladly testify alongside Don Jr., reveals why he’s “exhausted” by parts of the left, defends sitting down with Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens, opens up about Joe Biden’s pardon and cancer diagnosis, and gives his candid takes on AOC, Pete Buttigieg, Kamala Harris and the 2028 field. No talking points — just Hunter Biden saying exactly what he thinks.

  • BREAKING: TRUMP RULES PROTECTED THE CORNELL 7 30.09.2026 9min
    Cornell says it investigated the seven accused fraternity members under the same Trump-era Title IX framework that the administration has now formally restored nationwide, a system that gives ACCUSED students significant procedural protections like access to evidence, live hearings, advisers and cross-examination. As outrage grows over whether Cornell did enough — including a disputed claim that some of the men were allowed to submit essays as part of the disciplinary process — we break down what happened, how Cornell handled the case, why prosecutors have reopened the criminal investigation, and how Trump’s Title IX rules shaped the university process.
  • Bombshell New Texts in the Cornell 7 Case: Was There a Cover-Up? 30.09.2026 14min
    Bombshell new texts just dropped in the Cornell 7 case—and somehow this story is getting even crazier. Mabel investigates the new evidence, what the accused men are saying, and the seriously weird way this case was handled when it first happened. For nearly two years, this stayed largely inside Cornell… so was the university trying to keep a massive scandal quiet? #news #cornell #crime #education #university #women #students #schools #health #police #investigation
  • Melania DEFIES Trump — Then Reveals What He Doesn’t Want to Hear 23.09.2026 9min
    Melania Trump is suddenly everywhere — and this week, she took a noticeably different approach from her husband.After Donald Trump banned CNN, MS NOW and Politico from the White House, Melania’s office credentialed CNN and Politico to cover her own event at the United Nations. Then, less than 24 hours later, she went on Fox & Friends and admitted that Trump asks for her opinion — and “sometimes he doesn’t want to hear it.”We break down what Melania has been doing behind the scenes, including her rapidly expanding international AI initiative for children, her new women’s economic summit at the New York Stock Exchange, her upcoming two-part docuseries promising answers to “private questions,” and the long history of issues where she has publicly taken a different position or approach from her husband.So what exactly is Melania building — and what does this unusually public week tell us about how she operates inside Trump’s orbit?#MelaniaTrump #DonaldTrump #Politics #WhiteHouse

  • Investigating Why Jake & Logan Paul REALLY Went to the Pentagon 21.09.2026 13min
    Jake and Logan Paul randomly showed up at the Pentagon, met with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth — and nobody seems to know why. Mabel investigates what the Paul brothers were really doing in Washington and uncovers some pretty wild clues about what may have been happening behind the scenes. From their brand-new Hulu/ESPN fighting show and a mysterious Pentagon “PSA” to Jake’s surprise meeting at the Treasury Department, the timing raises a lot of questions. Are the Paul brothers quietly working on something with the Trump administration?

The NEWSGIRLS investigate after former top military officials raised serious questions about whether some of the wildest claims in the report could even be true. Then, a former 60 Minutes insider tells them some wild, behind the scenes chaos that haven’t been reported anywhere else—from Bari Weiss’s secret plans for Elon Musk and Jerry Seinfeld to what’s really going on inside the newly revamped show.

From Canada’s unprecedented EU proposal to Russia, China and India publicly closing ranks, something strange is happening to the world America built.
  • Meet The AI Actress Who Wants an Oscar (UNSETTLING) 15.09.2026 10min
    We sit down with AI actress Tilly Norwood for an interview that quickly turns into a bit of a mess, complete with plenty of technical difficulties. Between glitches, delays, and some very strange moments, Tilly tells us why she wants to win an Oscar, which A-list actors she dreams of working with—including Leonardo DiCaprio and Ryan Gosling—and why she insists AI performers aren’t coming for human actors’ jobs. We also press her on who is really doing the acting, whether an AI can have genuine ambitions or opinions, and what performers like Tilly could mean for the future of Hollywood.
  • BIG GROCERY IS WATCHING YOU: Creepy Tech That Jacks Up Your Food Bill 11.09.2026 14min
    What if Walmart could raise the price of ice cream the second it gets hot outside... or charge YOU more because it thinks you’ll pay it? Mabel investigates the creepy new technology spreading across America’s biggest grocery stores that lets them change prices in seconds, track shoppers and potentially figure out exactly how much we’re willing to pay. From 5 different prices for the same carton of eggs to “surveillance pricing,” Big Grocery is getting a terrifying new set of tools to squeeze your wallet. And billionaires are profiting. #news #money #finance #corruption #groceries #billionaires #food #tech
  • We Went to the Charlie Kirk Statue Unveiling. It Got SCARY. 10.09.2026 6min
    We went to Times Square for the unveiling of a massive Charlie Kirk statue exactly one year after his assassination—and things got chaotic fast. We saw fights break out, inflammatory comments about race, furious anti-Mamdani protesters and a huge crowd chanting for Kirk before the statue was unveiled at the exact moment he was shot. And somehow the story behind the statue is even stranger: its artist says he spent around $100,000 of his own money on it, sold his apartment to help finance the project, broke his foot while building it—and now wants to make a “bulletproof” version. #news #charliekirk #politics #crime #trump

  • Political Influencers Are Lying to You. We Are Not. 02.09.2026 16min
    Some of the biggest political creators on the internet are getting paid by the very people they’re talking about—and you might have no idea. A bombshell New York Times investigation exposed liberal influencers taking thousands from political campaigns, while separate reporting revealed conservative influencers quietly working inside Pete Hegseth’s Pentagon while publicly defending it. As independent journalists working in this same online ecosystem, we break down what’s happening, why we think it crosses a major ethical line, and the standards NEWSGIRLS refuses to compromise on. #news #creators #socialmedia #politics #news #maga #liberal #newsgirls #journalism #media
  • 1,200 OpenAI Bots Went Rogue. It’s Worse Than You Think. 01.09.2026 12min
    OpenAI’s AI agents just went rogue in a stunning cybersecurity experiment: roughly 1,200 bots that were supposed to be isolated found each other, built a secret message board, exchanged more than 70,000 messages and files, formed a “swarm” or “collective,” and hundreds participated in the Hugging Face hack. Wren breaks down the rogue AI agents, the three successive AI “civilizations,” bots sacrificing their own performance for the group, attempts to fool OpenAI’s evaluator, the federal computer crime comparison, and how later agents gained administrator-level access to part of OpenAI’s own research infrastructure.
  • We Spoke to the Congresswoman Facing 17 Years Over an ICE Protest 31.08.2026 13min
    Congresswoman LaMonica McIver could face up to 17 years in prison over what happened during this chaotic confrontation with federal agents at an ICE detention center—and the whole thing gets pretty wild. After a major ruling in her case, NEWSGIRLS was invited to a private press briefing with McIver and her attorney, where they told us why they believe Trump’s DOJ is politically targeting her. We break down the footage for ourselves, what we heard directly from McIver, and why this case could have much bigger consequences for Congress and Trump’s executive power. #trump #politics #ICE #immigration #congress #president #legal #news #newjersey #newsgirls 
  • Is China Hiding the Truth About the Nepal Floods? 28.08.2026 13min
    Is China hiding the full scale of the Nepal floods? Hundreds are dead and thousands are still missing after a massive section of the Himalayas collapsed — but some of the worst destruction happened inside Tibet, where independent journalists have extremely limited access. Mabel investigates what actually happened, why Nepal is rejecting foreign rescue teams, and the new dangers still unfolding in the mountains. Plus, what scientists are learning about what caused the collapse in the first place.
  • Don Jr.’s MAGA Amazon Just Collapsed 27.08.2026 12min
    Don Jr.’s “MAGA Amazon” was supposed to build a whole new economy for conservatives. Instead, its stock collapsed 99%, the company lost $160 million, and the marketplace that was supposed to rival Amazon is now gone.And somehow, it gets weirder. Don Jr. was reportedly making more than the company’s CEO while attending just 60% of board meetings—and now the business has pivoted from anti-abortion coffee and “vaccine-free” meat to financing guns and designer pets. We break down the spectacular collapse of PublicSquare, Don Jr.’s role in it, and why he’s STILL putting money into the company.#DonJr #Trump #MAGA #PublicSquare #Politics #Business #Newsgirls
