On this week's DMZ, Bill Scher and Matt Lewis discuss:

— The Epstein Files Bombshell & Alleged Cover-Up — Bill and I go through a deep-dive on the details behind accusations that Donald Trump sexually assaulted a 13-15-year-old girl in the 1980s surfaced — and debate whether the DOJ’s handling of this allegation constitutes a “cover-up."

— Why MSM Must Step Up on the Trump-Epstein Story — Bill argues traditional outlets have covered associations of other figures (e.g., Bill Gates, Prince Andrew, Woody Allen) far more aggressively than this serious, documented-in-files allegation against Trump — despite previous calls from MAGA figures like Kash Patel and Pam Bondi to release everything.

— Trump’s Growing Control Over Media Institutions — Paramount’s CNN acquisition (amid Trump-friendly Ellison family’s reported interference in blocking a Netflix rival bid) is merely the latest example of Trump’s broader intimidation/co-option tactics targeting late-night hosts, networks, and independent voices.

— Election Integrity Fears — Warnings about a proposed executive order declaring a “national emergency” over baseless Chinese interference claims to seize sweeping control over voting processes, raise concerns Trump might try to rig the midterms.

— 2026 Midterm Outlook & Texas Primaries Preview — Bill and I preview the high-stakes Texas Senate primaries ahead of next week’s elections. We also discuss the larger implications for general election electability in a potential wave year.

— And MUCH more!
