LARRY with Larry O'Connor

Zohran Mamdani rolled out his government-run grocery stores — and Larry O'Connor caught the tell: New Yorkers will need a photo ID to buy the discounted groceries, but Democrats still refuse to require one to vote. Larry breaks down the $30 million plan for stores the city already runs, Cory Booker defending non-citizen voting in New Jersey, and left-wing podcaster Scott Galloway getting doxxed on the very millionaire-tax list he cheered for.

Wisconsin Democrat Francesca Hong — a card-carrying Democratic Socialist — is a week away from her party's nomination for governor, and her own words are coming back to haunt her. Larry O'Connor rolls the tape: Francesca Hong dodging CNN's Kaitlan Collins on her call to "cancel Thanksgiving," saying "86 Trump" on camera, describing her bond with her own biracial son as "proximity to whiteness," and calling both policing and tipping products of "white supremacy." It's the full radical record of the woman Wisconsin Democrats want running a state that just voted for Donald Trump.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. walked into CNN's State of the Union with Dana Bash expecting a fight — and turned her vaccine "gotcha" into a live takedown. When Bash insisted there was "study after study," RFK Jr. demanded she produce a single one, and she couldn't. Larry O'Connor breaks down the most brutal media-vs-RFK exchange of the year, from Dana Bash's stack of pre-loaded papers to the moment Kennedy told her she and CNN "were part of the problem."

David From breaks down why the rise of socialism in New York City is the scariest warning sign in America right now — and how the Declaration of Independence directly refutes it. He reveals the radical founding idea that still terrifies big-government politicians: your rights come from God, not the government, and power flows only through the consent of the governed. Plus, why even the Smithsonian has stopped teaching the history every American should know.

A new AARP poll exposes the crack in Jon Ossoff's Georgia re-election: he's up 23 points with swing voters over 50, but Republican Mike Collins actually leads 53-45 among all 50-plus voters — the exact bloc that decides midterms, where 88% say they're extremely motivated to vote versus just 62% of voters under 50. Larry O'Connor and AARP's John Hishta break down the Georgia Senate and governor races, the Keisha Lance Bottoms vs. Rick Jackson ticket-splitting, and why Social Security's 2032 solvency deadline is about to become every Senate candidate's problem.

Chuck Schumer is desperate to finally become Senate Majority Leader, but his own party is already turning on him — Chris Van Hollen refused to defend him on camera, and his own crowds are screaming at him at his rallies. Then Hunter Biden went on the Macro Dosing podcast and called Schumer "a piece of," trashed Nancy Pelosi, and unloaded on Donald Trump's entire family, right down to the grandchildren — while his own dad still won't acknowledge Hunter's daughter Navy.

Francesca Hong is about to win the Democratic nomination for Governor of Wisconsin, and she's running the oldest trick in the book — calling herself a Democratic Socialist while insisting she doesn't back the party's platform to abolish the Senate, the police, and ICE. But her own "Abolish the Senate" tweet from five years ago is still live, and the second she left her scripted Fox News taping, the mask slipped. James Carville is already warning his party this is how Democrats blow winnable races.

Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson went on Michelle Obama's podcast to explain how carefully she avoids any "appearance of partiality" — apparently not noticing the irony of the venue. Then Jasmine Crockett bragged that black women are "the most educated demographic in this country" while stumbling over her own acronym, calling it "quote unquote DIE," and blaming racism for World Cup fans rooting against Argentina.

Larry digs into the ugly scene at a Seattle Storm vs. Indiana Fever game, where two teenage girls wearing "XX-XY" shirts in support of Sophie Cunningham were cursed out and called "trash" by adults sitting nearby — including, it turns out, Storm co-owner Celeste Keaton. Larry unmasks the Nordstrom employee caught on video hurling insults, walks through the girls' full account of the confrontation, and covers the fallout: the Seattle Storm's public apology, the WNBA suspending and fining Keaton, and Sophie Cunningham's own statement backing her young fans. Then he turns to a video the WNBA quietly deleted — Angel Reese and Paige Bueckers openly betting $400 on their own matchup — and asks why the league is letting it slide when other pro leagues suspend players for the exact same thing.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune is under fire from his own party. Larry breaks down why Thune keeps hedging on the Save America Act (voter ID and proof-of-citizenship requirements) even though the House already tucked its two biggest provisions into a budget reconciliation bill that only needs 50 votes — votes Republicans already have. He plays the moment a reporter asks Trump point-blank whether Thune is "still the man for the job," compares Thune's rambling answers to Chuck Schumer's near-identical talking points, replays John Cornyn's confused response, and breaks down Senator Mike Lee's floor speech rallying 15 GOP senators who are refusing to let the Senate recess for August until the Save America Act gets a vote.

Larry is pissed. Newly surfaced entries from Anthony Fauci's diary appear to contradict his public statements throughout the pandemic — from private conversations about shutting down New York City schools to his real feelings about the COVID-19 origin story. Larry breaks down the diary revelations, digs into CNN's Jake Tapper and his cozy personal relationship with Fauci, and unpacks Fauci's combative congressional hearing where he invoked the Fifth Amendment over 100 times. Larry also covers the mortality-rate testimony that helped trigger the national shutdown, the media's shifting narrative on lockdowns and kids, and Fauci getting doorstepped by a reporter on his morning walk right after testifying on Capitol Hill.

Anthony Fauci strode into the Senate hearing, delivered a self-congratulating opening statement blaming Rand Paul — then pleaded the Fifth 121 times, refusing to answer a single question. But here's the catch Rand Paul exposed: Fauci's blanket Biden pardon means he legally cannot incriminate himself, making the Fifth Amendment claim a sham and opening him to contempt of Congress. Paul even had Fauci's lawyer removed from the room by security, and a contempt vote is now scheduled.

Freshman Senator Bernie Moreno obliterated Anthony Fauci on the Senate floor, forcing him to admit he was pleading the Fifth on a right he couldn't even explain — and didn't know James Madison wrote. Moreno filled the chamber with real pandemic victims and asked Fauci to look them in the eye. He couldn't. Then Moreno hit him with the story of an Ohio mom arrested for watching her son's football game outside, and demanded an apology Fauci refused to give.

Josh Hawley just dismantled Anthony Fauci on the Senate floor, forcing him to plead the Fifth over questions as simple as the color of his tie. Then Hawley pulled out Fauci's own emails — proof he used eight federal employees on federal time to solicit over $1 million in cash awards, including a $900,000 Dan David Award, while a million Americans died. Fauci, already pardoned by Joe Biden, had no answer.

Roughly two hours of Joe Biden's 2017 ghostwriter tapes were released over his objections — and on them he can be heard saying "I just found all the classified stuff downstairs," admitting he kept classified documents in his Delaware basement next to Hunter Biden and telling an uncleared ghostwriter to "be careful" with them. The same tapes show the cognitive decline Robert Hur cited when he declined to charge Biden, all while the media called Donald Trump a traitor over Mar-a-Lago. Larry O'Connor plays the audio CBS gave barely 60 seconds, courtesy of the Heritage Foundation's Oversight Project and the House Judiciary Committee.

The second a CNN guest tried to raise the Anthony Fauci story, the whole panel talked over her to shut it down — and then admitted on air the DNC is millions in debt, begging vendors to hold their bills until after the midterms. Harry Enten's own chart lays it bare: Republicans sitting on $657 million while Democrats sink into the red, the party 24 points underwater, and the DSA now twice as toxic as the Tea Party ever was. Larry O'Connor breaks down why the "blue wave" narrative is a myth 98 days out.

Acting DNI Bill Pulte just declassified a document dump exposing FBI political appointee Nikki Flores — who admitted in a text message she was "basically running a shadow government across the FBI," locking China's 2020 election-interference intel out of Donald Trump's presidential daily briefing. Catherine Herridge's CIA whistleblower confirms it, newly declassified files show China compromised voter rolls in 18 states and had a plan to weaponize BLM chaos, and Pulte responds by firing roughly 30% of the intel staff.

Rand Paul just released "Tony's Diary" — Anthony Fauci's private notes — and they're devastating. In his own handwriting, Fauci pegged COVID's fatality rate at 0.2-0.3% while telling Congress under oath it was 10x deadlier than the flu, knew asymptomatic spread was confirmed on February 3rd yet told Larry Kudlow "we're okay," and tracked his own fame, awards, and action figure right alongside the rising death toll. With his pardon only covering the Biden years, Fauci returns to the Senate this week fully exposed to perjury charges.

A DSA co-chair went on Fox News and told Shannon Bream "absolutely" to abolishing the Senate, the Pentagon, borders, and even prisons — including for rapists and child predators. Larry O'Connor breaks down how these Democratic Socialists are running as a parasite inside Hakeem Jeffries' party, why the DNC is $2 million in debt and hiding its bills until after Election Day, the Bernie Sanders vs. Rahm Emanuel civil war, and how CNN's own data guy just admitted there is no blue wave coming.
