  Trump will sacrifice ICE agents to save himself Scapegoating is not a bug in authoritarian politics. It is a feature. Feb 1 Before we get into it: if you’re receiving this via email, thank you. You’re already subscribed. If you’re not, now is the time. Right now, if you are an ICE agent or a Border Patrol officer deployed to Minneapolis or other cities under Trump’s deportation agenda, you might feel untouchable. People have been killed. Agents have been quietly reassigned. There have been no charges, no serious investigations, and no meaningful accountability. The administration closes ranks. The message is simple and unmistakable: you are protected. That protection is real. For now. The problem is that in authoritarian-leaning political systems, protection is not rooted in loyalty or morality. It is rooted in convenience. When the political math changes, the rules change with it. Donald Trump is not defending these officers because he believes they behaved impeccably or because...

Measles goes viral as world moves on from Trump The David Pakman Show - January 23, 2026 Jan 23 Already a website member? Watch the show commercial-free  here  | Want to become a member? Sign up  here Growing concern about Donald Trump’s cognitive decline is being met not with transparency but with frantic spin from his inner circle. Over-the-top praise from figures like Lara Trump, calling visibly rambling and confused performances “brilliant” and “dominant,” signals panic rather than confidence. The exaggeration asks people to ignore what they can plainly see and hear, and that kind of cult-style myth making only amplifies doubts instead of calming them. Trump’s interaction with CNN’s Kaitlan Collins exposes a deeper problem with his foreign policy rhetoric. Pressed on why he would invite Vladimir Putin to a peace board while also warning that Putin is a territorial threat, Trump never resolves the contradiction. He deflects, rambles, and reframes authoritarian leaders ...

Trump seizes Russian tanker as impeachment calls grow The David Pakman Show - January 7, 2026 Jan 7 Already a website member? Watch the show commercial-free  here  | Want to become a member? Sign up  here The U.S. Coast Guard’s seizure of a Russian-flagged oil tanker near Iceland is a volatile move, with U.S. forces boarding the ship while reported Russian naval assets sat within range. But the more unsettling read is that this may be deliberate theater: a made-for-TV “tough on Putin” moment timed for the 2026 midterms, with a quiet understanding that each strongman gets a sphere of influence and the rest of the world gets the bill. At the same time, Trump is openly warning Republicans that losing the House in November could mean impeachment, and he framed it as inevitable rather than hypothetical. Democrats and legal voices are increasingly framing the Venezuelan operation as an unauthorized use of force, while Trump tries to turn it into a survival story: keep me protec...

  They’re quickly losing control of their own lies The David Pakman Show - December 26, 2025 Dec 26   Already a website member? Watch the show commercial-free  here  | Want to become a member? Sign up  here Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick went on Fox News and claimed that 4.3 percent GDP growth means Americans are earning 4.3 percent more. However, GDP measures total economic output, not wages or household income, and gains are often concentrated at the top. Presenting this as if everyone benefits equally misleads the public, and Lutnick got no pushback from the Fox host, Kellyanne Conway. Stephen Miller confidently spreads falsehoods about Trump’s economic record, inflation, and Biden-era policies. He blames Biden for inflation, and rewrites the history of COVID lockdowns. None of these claims hold up to fact-checking. His tactic relies on projecting outrage and confidence, making viewers accept statements without examining evidence. House Speaker Mike John...
