It’s Wednesday — hump day on The Majority Report.

We kick things off with Trump and Tulsi Gabbard concocting a brain-drained Epstein distraction campaign about election interference in 2016. While addressing members of Congress, Trump even suggests that when asked about Jeffrey Epstein, Republicans should deflect by claiming, “Obama cheated the election.”

Then we’re joined by Justin Wolfers, Professor of Economics and Public Policy at the University of Michigan, to break down Trump’s irrational tariff policies and the importance of banking independence.

In the Fun Half, we cover a near-disaster in North Dakota where a B-52 bomber came dangerously close to a Delta passenger jet, exposing a communication failure between a local Air Force base and a civilian airport.

Meanwhile, as the FAA is in shambles Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy continues to spread misinformation about crime rates—despite data showing a long-term significant decline, especially in New York.

ICE continues to terrorize families across the nation with brown shirt tactics. This week, we look into the case of Mohamed Naser, a Libyan immigrant who was falsely identified by ICE as Iranian, kidnapped, and still not released—despite ICE acknowledging their “mistake.”

All that and more plus IMs
