This week there was a little civil war in the MAGA movement. We're going to take a look at that and how the media is covering that. We all know about the big Epstein files. Finally the president said just release it. And so did Congress signed it. But now there's still, it still doesn't get released right away. What happens next? We're going to take a look at that coverage. Boy, there was some, a really big dinner. MBS came in town. Saudi Arabian leader came in. They had a big state dinner. Melania came out, everybody came out. We're going to take a look at that, see how the media covered that. That and more coming up on Media exposed. Dare to follow me down. What they do say is fake news. That's how devious the media's become. They're full force activists now. They colluded. Trump folks were in on it. Sway's election, Sway's policy. We need to expose them. Republicans trash the country. I've been doing this since I was 18. I've had hit jobs done against me. I've been attacked by media reporters. Am I afraid no truth will prevail. Fake news media, we're here to call you out. Head into the unknown. Media Exposed with Adam Wise starts now. Welcome back to Media exposed. It was a civil war, sort of a civil war in the MAGA movement. Marjorie Taylor Greene was called out by Donald Trump. Full disclosure, one of her, you know, boyfriend works. He's our White House correspondent Brian Glenn who's there almost every day. But there was a big calling out over the weekend called her a traitor. She was going on all sorts of different broadcasts. That's her Right. She's a congresswoman. Went on the View, she went on abc, she went on cnn, and it was all about the files. And then Trump didn't disliked it so much. He called her out on Twitter a couple of times and it became big news. Why the President? Anything the President does obviously is big news. And he said he would support a primary challenger. Is this healthy for the Republican Party? We know the media loves it. So I want to welcome my next guest, Mike Filzane. He's a digital marketer, he's a software developer, he's a brilliant online market. Actually. I know Mike for, I don't want to say how many years I know Mike, but we go way back. Close colleague, close friend for many, many years. Mike, thanks for joining us. First time on Media Exposed. Good to be here, Adam. Good to see you. I had to cover this little civil war here because I don't know if it's healthy for the Republican Party, healthy for the conservative mood, healthy MAGA movement, but because MTG was there even when he's his darkest days, when he got after January 6, a lot of Republicans abandoned him. And in this last election, the Republican Party lost a lot of women, young women. So going after Marjorie, I don't know if that's such a good idea for the President, but I want to get your take on that because it's splintering the gop and we don't need to be splintered because there's a whole other media establishment splinters us and there's a Democrat splintering us. What do you think of that little, let's say it's a little intra party. If here I, I, I think, you know, one year in to the second term with Trump, I think we've all figured this out. Trump's your friend until he's not. And when he's not your friend, he is not your friend. He's going to come at you hard. This was a lot tougher to see when we first started seeing this in the first term, we were like, oh my God, Trump's mad at so and so. And they were really, really good friends. And there are some people that are going to get, you know, completely excommunicated, like Mike Pence. Right. But when we saw it happen with Elon Musk, the first thing I saw was a more Trump, more mature Trump. He would say things like, I don't know, I don't know what's wrong with Elon, a little bit of digs. And Elon came after him hard. Like we know some of the stuff that Elon even said about the Epstein files. So for me, I see that Trump wants 100% loyalty. He learns how to deal with it a little bit. What I see with mtg, here's what makes me the happiest. It's not who Trump goes to war with. It's who goes to war with Trump. And MTG is not going to war with Trump. She has something that she's standing by. You know, we hear that she went to him and said, hey, I want to run for governor or Senate, and he said, I think you're fine where you are. And that caused a feud. I think that's noise. I think the thing is, is that Trump is saying that, hey, this Epstein thing is a hoax. And I think he did a real bad job. He's doing better with it now the way he would call it a hoax. He got myself and you and everybody in the entire base to basically say, yeah, release the Epstein files. And then we start hearing him saying it's a hoax when the message that everybody's hearing is, these girls were never assaulted. Right. And what he's saying is, no, this is. And this is where he needs to do better messaging. This is a distraction by the Democrats. That's what he means by a hoax. And so he shouldn't say the Epstein files are a hoax because they're there. They exist. And the bottom line is it is a distraction for the country. MTG is behind the girls. She is out there saying, release these files. And Trump did. And the bottom line is he should have been behind it the entire time. I'll criticize him and I'll say he should have been behind it. You got a great point, Mike, because instead of just saying, this is Democrats trying to play politics, just say it's not a hoax because they exist. Right, but. So I want to go to this cut. It's Alex Jones, who's a big Trump supporter, and he said, stop attacking. Watch this. Let's go to cut one here. Watch this. Trump is not God. We are big supporters, but we're not Democrat cult members where we don't question things. When we think something's wrong, we might be wrong, too, but we're going to speak out about it. So you have these white pillars that say, you said, I'm on shuttle. Agree with you. Don't ever question Trump. He's God. You're a traitor. If you do, then you have the black pillars that say, oh, he's a traitor. We're all screwed. No, he's the best shot we've got to save in this country, in the world right now. So when I criticize Trump, it is from a place of love. And he's our lifeboat here trying to get him back on track. So in the MAGA civil war, stop attacking Massey, stop attacking Rand Paul, stop attacking mtg. And because it doesn't help him in the end and it doesn't help them and it doesn't, doesn't help America. So we're here, you know, trying to get Trump to course correct. It looks like he's starting to do it. And Alex, on our side, MAGA conservatives, talk shows aren't afraid to tell the truth. Look, in Virginia, Mike, and New Jersey, the GOP was crushed by women, especially Gen Z women. 75, 25, 80, 20 women don't like this behavior. We're not going to. It's unsustainable if you get those kind of numbers with younger women. So you should lower the rhetoric a bit. There's no upside there. Give me your thoughts on that quickly and we'll go to. I want to go to something else. Give me your quickly thoughts on Alex Jones's thoughts, too. Yeah, I think, I think Alex was right. I think that thanks to people like you and having people like me on your show and all the other people in the conservative media, we have a voice. And I do believe that it gets to Don Jr. It gets to, you know, his younger son, it gets to Eric. And we, by doing what Alex Jones says, we can disagree with Trump and still be 100% MAGA, because there's no way we're going to the Democrats. So I like what Alex Jones said and I do like what you said, that, you know, we don't have a problem with the males, but we do with the young Gen Z females. We need to find a better way to connect with them. One person was suspended a couple weeks ago, I think it was about a month ago. So Jimmy Kimmel and took a big shot at Trump, and Trump couldn't help it. But I want to show you what he did. Kimmel, let's go to cut 1.5. And while Kimmel described the Trump, you know, files. What just, I don't get it. They just blindly defend him. They don't know what's in those files. They're taking his word for it. They're taking the word of someone who paid a porn star $130,000 and claims he didn't do anything with her. Even if Trump keeps his promise and signs the bill, we don't know whether the Department of Justice will actually release all the files or if they'll be tied up in investigations, specifically investigations. Trump orders to keep them tied up in investigations. And that is where things will get interesting. We will get the. Will we have the original documents? Or is Trump going to pull a Taylor Swift and give us the Epstein files? Donnie's version of the document? We might not ever know. Trump claims this whole thing is a Democrat hoax. And the reason he refused to sign an executive order to, to release the files months ago is because it's a waste of time. And that's the thing about Donald Trump. This is not a man who wastes time on nonsense. We're going to have a UFC fight. Think of this on the grounds of the White House. This is an executive order relating to the use of paper straws. Changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America. I know a lot about reverse bathtubs. I've done it. Yeah. Let's show this photo. Mike watchers tweet this morning. It was early in the week. On Thursday, Trump tweeted this out. Why does ABC fake news keep Jimmy Kimmel, a man with no talent, very poor television ratings on the air. Why did TV syndicates put up with it? Also totally biased covered. Get the bum off the air. I don't, you know, I don't know if Trump's actually tweeting this stuff still. It seems like we're back to early Trump days from his first administration worrying about late night talk shows. He just has, he just had MBS in there with the biggest tech leaders. Actually getting rid of paper straws was a great idea, wasn't it? So, yeah. What'd you think of a Kimmel clip? And look, look, I, I'm okay with late night television. You know, I, I understand, like, these guys have an agenda. I hate it. But I'm, I'm for free speech. You for me, I just know, you know, tell of two cities as a tell of two Trumps. Right. I follow the Trump. That's policy. And I know there's the Trump, there's the tweeter. I wish that he would get off some of the tweets recently. You might know, like he did one the other day, recommending that, you know, that they fire Seth Meyers. And what he does is he basically talks about why he wants to get Seth Meyers and he gives you a little bit of a breadcrumb. He's got low ratings. NBC should fire Seth Meyers. And then you get the FTC chairman from the Trump administration. Then reposting Trump's tweet with nothing else, just reposting and saying, yes, I agree, something like that. And then you also look at, I'm sorry. Then you also look at the ftc, you know, is, is overlooking, you know, some type of merger for NBC. And in my opinion, it looks really bad. Trump should just get off of all of this stuff if, if, if this trying to be a merger and NBC wants to get good with the Trump administration so they could get the merger through. That's good. But for Trump, you should fire this guy. And then somebody else from the ftc, the head of the FTC is posting that and saying, hey NBC, you should see this. I don't like it. I really don't like it. Mike, you got a great idea because you know, once the president says something, it's news everywhere and I don't think he should bring that to that level. Let's set Myers file on its own. The free market will fail. They'll fail. That's the way it is in capitalism. Mike, I want to thank you for joining us first time mag. I'll see you soon. Thank you. Thank you. Thanks, Mike.

Suppose the Epstein saga, you know, came along and it's still going strong. But you know, one thing that happened this week was the Congress passed the, you know, signed the law releasing the Epstein files and the President signed it. So that's the next step to get it hopefully out of the news cycle. But now it still has to go to the Justice Department. But along the way they made this the new Russia gate. 800 minutes since mid July recovering from a the top anchors ABC, CBS, NBC did he die? Died of a suicide, they say there was no evidence that it was other than that they looked into that and this big client list they're looking for. So Trump was a stunning eight again 800 and over 800 minutes of the media. Research analysts examined all mentions of Epstein's accomplishments starting in July and on ABC, CBS and NBC across the flagship morning shows and it was 400 minutes from their overall time, which was nearly double CBS had for any any other mentions of anybody else. But it was Trump related. ABC also had the most time of all sets of networks. ABC's World News Tonight 119 minutes combined evening news, which came out to 274 minutes of additional coverage with the CBS and evening and NBC Nightlight. I want to make my next guest David Z, our host of Breaking Point. Hi, Adam. How are you today? Great to be with you with all this hype and all this, you know, coming to a big, you know, crescendo, I guess, or. Larry Summers resigned from Harvard. He resigned from the board of OpenAI, too. He once was the Treasury Secretary under Clinton. And he will stop. And as early in the week as said, I'm going to cut back from my commitments after release with Epstein. Summers did not detail what he did wrong, Dave, but he said and said he will continue to teach and promise to rebuild trust and repair relations with the people closest to me. I'm deeply ashamed of my actions and recognize the pain they have caused. I take full responsibility for my misguided decision. I don't know. Not really saying what he did wrong. I think he texted him afterwards, but he resigned. He must. Must have done some really bad stuff if he resigned, because these people are addicted to power, money. So there must be a lot with. There must be a lot with Summers, Dave. So, you know, finally we signed it, David. But I found out there's still not gonna be released for a while. Give me your thoughts, initial thoughts. Well, should Summers be around students, you know, in college after what he may or may have not done? Because, you know, from what I've seen, it's not public that he did anything with underage girls or anything like that, but was very close with Epstein for a long. But, you know, Dershowitz, even, you know, Harvard Professor Dershowitz had a personal experience with Epstein, asking him, you know, is Donald Trump on your list of names, compromising information on Trump, is anything out there he should know about? And Epstein said categorically, no. So, you know, but Trump has been angry at ABC News, right? They had 14 hours of coverage on Epstein alone. ABC leading the pack of all the majors who had this incredible amount of time, like 900, right? Minutes of coverage. It's crazy. It's shocking. David. I haven't heard any. It's nonstop. Trump, right? And it was a bombshell last week. And the bombshell was like, Trump said, he's not talking to us or something. It was so minimal. There was no bombshell. But the chiron and the headings was. There's a big bombshell with Trump. And it was like. It was like. And Trump threw him out of Mar A Lago, Virginia. Guy free said Trump had nothing. He never went to the island. Didn't fool anybody. Before she died, it was like, they're trying so hard to make Epstein the new Russiagate, and finally Trump had enough, and that's probably why he had that heated with Marjorie Taylor Greene probably got to him. Let's go to cut two. And this is. Watch what happened in the old walls with this ABC reporter man. Is that pretty good? Mr. President, here. Mr. President, why wait for Congress to release release the Epstein files? Why not just do it now? It's not the question that I mind. It's your attitude. I think you are a terrible reporter. It's the way you ask these questions. You start off with a man who's highly respected, asking him a horrible insubordinate and just a terrible question. And you could even ask that same exact question nicely. You're all psychedelic. Somebody psychs you over at abc, you're going to psych it. You're a terrible person and a terrible reporter. As far as the Epstein files is, I have nothing to do with Jeffrey Epstein. I threw him out of my club many years ago because I thought he was a sick pervert. But I guess I turned out to be right. But you know who does have Bill Clinton. Larry Summers, who ran Harvard, was with him every single night, every single weekend. They lived together. They went to his island many times. I never did. Andrew Weissman are here. All these guys were friends of his. You don't even talk about those people. You just keep going on the Epstein files. And what the Epstein is, is a Democrat hoax to try and get me not to be able to talk about the $21 trillion that I talked about today. It's a hoax. Now I just got a little report and I put it in my pocket. David, I can understand this, because it's like Bill Clinton went so many times. Larry Summers went so many times. He never went once to this island. And then the media, we found a photo of Epstein and Trump at a benefit like 28 years ago. Okay, so they were at a benefit together. It's like, so silly, right? And is it a little harsh? Yes. But enough of this. That is so biased towards Trump and not towards the real perpetrators were the Democrats, right? I think Trump is still fuming at ABC from the Stephanopoulos record payout, you know, for slanderous comments. And then the Jimmy Kimmel nightmare, right? ABC is a bad actor. And, you know, then he took it out on Bloomberg's Catherine Lucy on the plane. You know, basically, she supposedly wasn't treating people well on the plane, according to the White House. So Trump was like, shutting her down when he called her a piggy. I don't know, you know, the backstory behind that. In full. But Trump is angry and he's frustrated and he's not treated well. I don't mind ABC asking a question about Khashoggi, whether or not he was killed and that Prince knew about it, you know, and so. But I think it's bigger than that. Trump is always getting from all angles. But I will add this, Adam, everyone I talk to can't make ends meet unless, you know, they work for the government or civil service job. And we're going to lose the House next year. So we better get past this very quick. All hands on deck for next fall. That's what I want to show. The next cut was he called our piggy. So let's go to cut three. Watch this. He called that reporter. I like. You know, that's not helpful because the mainstream media made this such a big story and it gets scoured. And we really got hurt. Again, I would say to this earlier, we got hurt with women, especially young women, Gen Z women, really bad. The DOP got 75, 25, 80, 20. Some numbers say they don't want to hear that kind of language towards the women, you know, and that'll hurt them. And I have a lot of with female friends back in New York that like Trump. Now they don't like him again. So it's not, let's show. But somebody, this guy, Chad Prather, who's big on Instagram. Let's show this photo here. Photo two here. Let's show. He said, of course, now the Democrats are outraged at Trump called reporter piggy. They shocked that in their words, so a Nazi, a pedophile, white supremacist, insurrection, draft dodging, money stealing, child hating, poor starving massagers, bigoted. Hitler would stoop to name calling. So his point is he's been called that for years and years and he called her piggy, right? Well, according to the White House, they reiterated that again, Bloomberg's Katherine Lucy, the reporter in question here, behaved inappropriately and unprofessional towards fellow media on the plane. And the White House doubled down and said, if you're going to give it, you have to take it with a reference to Ms. Lucy. So again, I don't know, would they make the point that what did they say? What did they say she did on the, on the plane? Do they, are they specific? No, they did not get specific about it, but there were, there were rumblings that she was acting inappropriately and unprofessional towards fellow press. So again, you know, there's usually a backstory to all this. The Optics aren't good for Trump. But I think he's got to get over this and he has to, you know, just accept that the media is never going to be on his side and at least the MSM and, you know, he's got to be presidential about it. Yeah. Because like I said, we're going to get hurt there. And the numbers don't look good and especially in the female vote. So he's got to take it. But the other point of this, even though they signed the law midweek or part of the week and he signed it, it's still going to be redacted. It still goes back to the Justice Department, David, and they're going to review it. And we don't have a timeline. They say it might be released in a month. So it feels like we're back at, you know, where we were three, four months ago. Right. I'm so sick of it. I'm just so sick of it. We need to move on. You know, people can't get jobs out of college. We got, we got big fish to fry here. We've got to get on track. Exactly what you said. There seems to be a disconnect between like these content creators, these huge content creators, the media because when I'm talking to average, you know, men and women in the street, friends, colleagues, I don't think, I never have a conversation about the Epstein files. They don't. Nobody really cares. Right. But then it's the media, big content creators that keep driving this story. But as you said, people want to pay the bills. They want to know how they can buy food. So I see a disconnect. What do you think? There were accusations, 30 seconds. There were accusations that Bill Clinton had sex with Bobby Ann Williams in the bushes while he was jogging and pre dawn jog because his, you know, state troopers used to look for girls for him out there. So, you know, we know that Clinton's a scoundrel. We know he was on the low leader express. You know, it's already, it's already known stuff. We have to get through this quickly. I hope we can. Right on, Dave, thanks for joining us. We'll see you soon. And I'll see you next week. Thank you. Thanks, Adam. Up next, we're going to talk about the immigration ballots going on and is it hurting the GOP and how's the media covering it with DHS and all the officials? That and more.

One of the mandates when Trump got re elected in 2024, we had to fix immigration. Our country was flooded with illegal immigrants, criminals, gangsters, you know, crocs, all sorts of bad people flooded in by the millions into this country. And that was a mandate. We got Tom Holman, the border czar. We got Kristi Noem, head of, you know, national security, she's head of the security of the country for overseeing the border, head of dhs, Department of Homeland Security. And they're rounding up people and they've been doing it well and they're getting criminals. But videos appear, people dragged out of cars, people dragged out of the workplace, people dragged away from their kids. And the appearance, the visuals aren't good. Probably hurting the GO might be hurting the GOP a little bit. And the media is taking full advantage of that. So I want to welcome my next guest, Tony Delgado, the CEO of Latino Wall Street. Tony, thanks for joining us. Hey, thanks for having me on, Tony. You know, Tony, you know, these videos, sometimes the appearance of it, but we're not, a lot of times we're not told the backstory. Right. But what happens is it gets drained into the American public's eyes. And if the appearance is not that great of these visuals of people being rounded up, young kids, moms in the courtrooms, which is in the courtrooms at the workplace. And we're going to lose some of the vote here. So I want to show you a clip here because Joe Rogan and Theo Vaughn on the Rogans who were discussing this video that Theo Vaughan was in it. And then he even asked DHS Department of Homeland Security to take it down. Let's go to cut four here. Watch this. Remember, I was texting like you, I was just texting people to make sure everybody's okay. I didn't know if they were like just going to kill people that had been on TikTok or whatever. I had no idea what they were going to do. I just can't believe they did that with you, where they just put it in there as if, like, you were endorsing that. Well, it just kind of. And it was just a scary time. That was the same time as the Charlie greenlit that. Who greenlit that? Probably to some trap beat, but, you know, artists or whatever. Like, if a company did that, you could sue them. You know what I'm saying? Like, if it was privatized, like, if ICE was a private company and that was the people that the United States hired to get rid of illegal immigrants and they used you, you would sue them. You could sue them. Well, it was just. But the government can just put that up there. And then what did you do? You had to formally request them taking it down? Yeah, hire an attorney to get them help to take it down. How long did it take to take it down? I think, like, 48 hours or something. But it had, like, 30 million views over a couple platforms. And how many people even know it was taken down until they just heard you say it? Of course not. I knew because you told me, but I couldn't believe it. When you first asked me what I should do about this, I was like, it's probably nothing. And I was in the car, and I didn't watch it. And then I got to the club. Then I talked to you from the club, and you're like, you didn't see it? I was like, no. And then I saw it. I was like, oh, my God. What the are they doing? Like, I. It's like, that's not how you envision the government. The government made a hype video. Yeah, they were making, like, deportation hype videos with trap beats. And. And I was like, what are we doing? That's what I'm saying. Everything is turned into, like, the WWE. It's. None of it's real. It's 100, that Mike Judge movie. It's Idiocracy. Oh, Idiocracy. Yeah. Yeah. But, yeah, that was scary, man, because then I got. Because there was just, like, a lot of threats, and then it. Then. And then things got like. Then it was just kind of. That. That made me super. That made me kind of paranoid. It's a lot of theatrics. And they're actually giving. You know, they're making it hype because they're giving bonuses. I heard a friend of mine about to retire as a police officer. You know what? I might join as an ICE officer. They're giving big bonuses, so they put him in the video. It was like a hype video rallying around young people, looking strong, making it look cool. Like an act Figure he even know about it. So give me your thoughts on these videos and these, you know, rounding up of people and the appearance that's happening from dhs. Well, yeah. Thanks, Adam. So I think, you know, it's twofold. We have these clips that are going viral with, you know, apprehensions, and it doesn't look good. You have ICE agents who are wearing masks, and you have a lot of images of Hispanic Americans who all seem to be resisting arrest. And we don't know which ones are legal, which ones aren't, what the situation, what happened before the camera started rolling. And it actually reminds me a lot of BLM and the way that movement was used and abused in the previous election cycle, where you had African Americans scared and thinking that the police are their enemies. And then you have these videos of a. A black guy getting pulled over for a speeding ticket and getting very aggressive and not cooperating with police and kind of making matters worse. And now we have something very similar with the Hispanic community, where there's so much fear in the marketplace, there's so much misinformation. Right. That even US Citizens who are Hispanic are now starting to fear and potentially even regret their vote, thinking that ICE agents are coming for them, getting stopped by police and then giving them an attitude and escalating matters and again, making matters worse. Right? But we know that resisting arrest, whether you like it or not, if you resist arrest, police are gonna use force and sometimes lethal force to enforce the law and to apprehend people who are potential threats. Right? So I think that's part of it. Right. Part of it is we don't know how these video clips that are going viral are starting. But. But the second part is the recruiting, the massive recruiting that they've been doing for ICE agents. And I had the opportunity to speak to Secretary Noem at Mar a Lago last week, and she gave us an update report and a status report about tsa. And she said the TSA was going through hospitality training. They've contracted Chick Fil A. And the same people who train Chick Fil A on their hospitality, they're going to have TSA go through hospitality training. As you guys know, you don't have to take your shoes off at the airport anymore. Those are all good things. And the first question that I had was, okay, that's great. Are we going to have ICE go through hospitality training? Right. Because I'm a U.S. citizen. There's tons of U.S. citizens here in Florida, in the great state of Florida, in the great city of Miami, there's tons of Latinos who are US Citizens who are here legally. And we don't want to be racially profiled. Right. We don't want to have. Have ICE agents acting, you know, just as aggressive as TSA agents and. And harassing U.S. citizens. And I think with the massive recruiting that they're doing, they're bringing out all these new people right there. They have these bonuses that are going out to recruit new ICE agents. Okay, These guys are new. It's their first week on the job. What kind of training are you putting so that they're not making mistakes in the field and it's not negatively impacting the Trump administration from an optic standpoint. What. Well, what happened? What happens if we join Tony? We get that bonus? Can we leave after two weeks? Do we keep the bonus? We have to stay. I mean, I told my dad. I was like, hey, dad, they're giving away a $50,000 bonus. I think me and you need to get in a pickup truck and join ice. I mean, it's. It's very, you know, it's very aggressive, these bonuses, and it's very attractive. And so you're gonna attract a lot of new ICE agents. You're gonna attract a lot of people. And if you're deputizing these new people, you're giving them a badge and a gun. You know, there has to be a training process in between point A and point B to make sure that people are doing things the right way. But also with that, the TSA agents at the airport with the Chick Fil A train, do you also get a free chicken sandwich or a spicy one? Which one? Because that would be great, too, if they can add that as an incentive. Yeah, you get the chicken sandwich, but they're gonna throw your Coca Cola in the garbage. Unfortunately. Unfortunately. Because no fluids under 4 ounces or whatever the rule is. Oh, that's right. You're not allowed to take. You're not allowed to ever allow to take fluids or a certain amount of, you know, hairspray or whatever it is. Right. So I wanted to show you this other story I saw. Stephen Smith. He challenged Michelle Obama claim that America is not ready for a female president, which I don't think is true, but watch this. I'm going to show you this clip that, you know, clip five here, that. That impacts the room that we've made for a woman to be president. Well, as we saw in this past election, sadly, we ain't ready. That's why I'm like, don't even look at me. About running because you all are lying. You're not ready for a woman. You are not. So don't waste my time. You know, we got a lot of growing up to do. And there's still, I'm sadly, a lot of men who do not feel like they can be led by a woman. And we still saw it. Two things jumped on my mind listening to that. If men, any man generalized that way about the female populace, what would happen to us to generalize like that? Man, we ain't ready. If some man said, women, you ain't ready. What? Think about that. Number two. Here's what jumped out of my mind. Didn't we just see an election take place last month where a woman won the gubernatorial seat in New Jersey? And Mickey, Sheryl, Mikey, Sheryl. Didn't we just see Abigail Spamberger win in Virginia? He's got a great point. Two Gubernatora won by two women. Hillary Clinton was the anointed frontrunner. Remember, she was about to be the president. Then this young, energetic African American was put on the hierarchy by the media and was given the most glorious coverage ever. So he won. He beat her. Living. But why is she. Give me a final thoughts. Why is Michelle always playing the victim card and always complaining? She was just the first lady. Yeah. Glamorous life. It seems like she's always the victim. It's, it's ridiculous, Adam. I mean, it's, it's so disappointing to see the former, the former first lady, you know, constantly race baiting, constantly saying sexist remarks and trying to tear the country apart. Right. Obviously, Congresswoman Anna Paulina. She's a proud Latina Republican from the state of Florida, obviously aoc. Right. Proud congresswoman on the Democratic side from the city of New York. Obviously Secretary Gnomes. Right. She was the former governor. So, like the lie that's being told that we're not ready for female leadership in government. It's just so backwards words. It's not that we're not ready for a woman. We weren't ready for those women. Tony, thanks for joining us. I'll see you soon. Thank you. Coming up next, we're going to talk about the big White House dinner that happened early in the week with MBS and what an amazing group they had at the White House. Welcome back to Media Exposed. It's been a big week in the news media, but one of the biggest things we have is when the president staff, they bring in and have a White House dinner. Sometimes they call it a state dinner. The president hosted Saudi crown prince. You know of Saudi Arabia, and it was the first one in a long time. They had him in Mohammed bin Salman, he's a crown prince and he's the prime minister, Saudi Arabia. So it was an elegant dinner. Some of the top people that came across from America was leaders like Elon Musk came and Tim Cook and Mark Benioff from Salesforce. Some of these people weren't even big MAGA supporters, GOP supporters, but now they seem to be in the graces of President Trump. You also had Jeff Bezos, Mary Barra, who's the CEO of General Motors, David Ellison, who's, you know that. Whose father's Larry Ellison, who just recently bought Paramount, which owns CBS and did some big shakeups over there. David Sachs, who's also the White House. AI and cryptos are part of it. Greg Brock Bachman, president and co founder of OpenAI, was also there. Howard Lutnick, Elon Musk, I said earlier. And Cristo Renaldi, the big soccer star was there. But it was a glamorous night to be at the White House. Glamorous for the meeting during the day. And I want to show you how the royalty, how Trump. I'm going to go to this video. This room is loaded up with the biggest leaders in the world. Business, sports. You know, my son is a big fan of Ronaldo. Wherever Ronaldo is here. Ronaldo. And Baron got to meet him. And I think he respects his father a little bit more now. Just the fact that I introduced you. So I just want to thank you both for being here. Thank you very much. Really an honor. That was because the new generation, they love soccer. It's just a European thing. It's a Gen Z thing, millennial thing. So soccer fact that this Merle is one of the biggest stars in the world, the fact that he came in for the state then was very important. It showed that America's back to show this is inclusive for celebrities and stars. And. And Trump is changing the way it's done in Washington. And with that meeting with mbs, very important, very significant. Hasn't been a meeting like that, I don't know, 50 or so years to bring them in. They were originally part of the Abraham Accords. So it's important to have Saudi Arabia folding in there and coming about. And the money that he said that they were investing was, I think he pumped it. He said it's some close to a trillion dollars that they're investing, but hopefully with all the investment from different countries coming in that the media doesn't seem to coverage when he says it, it's out there, but it's not covered much. All the money they're bringing in to America, it's investments, and all the money that comes in later on is going to build factories and create jobs. So the economic prosperity will happen hopefully stronger in the second year because we know those midterm elections will be coming up and the Republicans do not hold maybe a few seats. That's it. And the Senate's up, too. So we need some good prosperity. We need to laser in our focus on the economy, and that's really important. They have here the glitz and grammar is great. The investment's great. But it's got to turn into jobs, got to turn into people's pockets because that's the voters. And we, we didn't have a great midterm. Lost two big states, weren't GOP states, but we didn't do as well. We thought we'd do. Another thing I wanted to look at is Michelle, I mean, Michelle Obama, we're going to talk about that, too. But Melania Trump, she wore this beautiful green dress. I want to show this photo. This dress was from a Lebanese designer. Eliezer. Gorgeous green dress. It's beautiful, right? The First Lady, White House dinner. Wears a dress, looks amazing. I said, wow, we're gonna get covered by Glamour, by Vogue, by Harper's, by all the big fashion publications in the country. You know what? I can't find it unless I'm googling wrong. But the fashion covers went to sleep. They didn't cover it. How could you not cover the first lady looking like that? The media bias is 2.0 in Trump's second term, the same way they did it in Trump 1.0 against the first lady. Former model speaks six, seven languages. Doing philanthropy across the globe. We want you there. Elegant, looks beautiful, doing a tremendous job, and they won't cover her. Do we need to hammer the heads of Madison Avenue and the big fashion conglomerates? You can cover a conservative. It's okay if we ideologically disagree. You could still cover people and they're still at it. Woke. We need to knock some woke sense into the fashion publications across America because it's not fair. What the first lady does is newsworthy. We call it in the business that we're in and we teach. The first lady does is newsworthy. Very newsworthy. And fashion publications are supposed to cover fashion when they cover the award ceremonies, when they cover the lighthouse, when they cover, you know, celebrities. We cover fashion and they refuse to do it. Maybe they're. They're that bitter, the hatred towards Americans, towards conservatives, Republicans, you're missing out on half of the country. Think about it. If you cover the other half of the country, cover Melania, well, you get more viewers, you get more readers. Maybe a few people would complain, but those people complain every day anyway. They probably complain that they have to actually go to work. Most of those people. The newsroom is up in roar because we covered Melania Trump, and it's probably three people complaining. So better off. A little advice to the fashion publications across the Maryland Vogue or Harper's. There is another half of the country you should cover. And you'd grow your viewers, you grow your readership. You'd show respect to the other half of America. And the other half, America has style, too. Believe me. We see it, we live it, we breathe it. So it's a shame that they didn't cover Melania, but hopefully we'll cover her and we'll call them out. I wanted to cover this clip here because Michelle Obama was criticizing people about. You couldn't make this up. Let's go to cut seven here. Worry about it. Let me explain something to white people. Our hair comes out of our head naturally in a curly pattern. So when we're straightening it to follow your beauty standards, we are trapped by the straightness. That's why so many of us can't swim and we run away from the water. People won't go to the gym because we're trying to keep our hair straight for y'. All. It is exhausting and it's so expensive and it takes up so much time. Braids are for y' all, so we can work harder and focus on the work. So why do we need an act, an act of law to tell white folks to get out of our hair. Don't. Don't tell me how to wear my hair. Don't wonder about it. Don't touch it. Just don't. So imagine Melania went up there, was doing a speech in front of a symposium or summit or media group, and she said, black people are always telling me I can't have straight hair and I can't do this. And she started coming back. The uproar that would happen would be time consuming, would be a week straight, would be taking up all the news cycle. But she can call out white people about complaining about, I don't think anybody cares about your hair, Michelle. And nobody's even listening to that. But why is she so bitter? I don't. I'm still confused. We said this earlier, that Michelle is still Caught up, like she's being taken advantage of. She's not getting a role that she should have. She's looked down upon Michelle. You were Michelle Obama, you were the first lady of the United States. You were given one of the greatest gifts that people were ever given. Oversaw the country for eight years. You lived in the White House. Uplift America. It's a great place. You should be proud of it. And that whole ranting about the white hair and the black hair, I don't think people really care about it. But there's another meeting that happened this week and it's going to be Zoran Mandani with Trump. And that was quite a show. And that was really interesting happening in Washington. And you know, finally the, you know, the files were put to restaurant. We talked about that earlier. And you know, there's a lot of races coming up next year that the Congress is coming up. So it's going to be all consuming on the congressional races. And we've got to make sure Trump stays laser focused. The media is going to be all over him, but hopefully he stays laser focused to make sure that the country moves in a good direction and a solid direction because, you know, the media will constantly be, you know, looking for every little gap and hole to go after the administration. They've been doing it nonstop. They've been more heated than ever and we see it. Some of the questions that are non stop towards the president, nonstop towards the bias is coming out from all sorts of quarters from NBC, cbs, abc, the late night talk shows. So stay focused. If the GOP just stays focused, Trump just does a good job in the economy. I think they'll probably do well in the midterms. And I want to wish everybody, I won't be back till next Sunday, so we won't want to wish everybody Happy Thanksgiving. Coming up this week, there's a lot of turkeys out there. We'll have to do a turkey award for the best for the most media turkey coming up of all time. Right. So, you know, I want to thank our partner at Hotel Planner. They do a great job.

Podcast: Real America’s Voice (iHeartPodcasts)

This episode of Media Exposed dives into the turbulent week in conservative and American politics, examining:
Adam Weiss and invited guests critically analyze how the mainstream media is handling and framing these issues, with a repeated emphasis on perceived media bias against Trump/conservatives and the importance of strategic messaging heading into the midterms.

“So going after Marjorie, I don’t know if that’s such a good idea for the President, but I want to get your take on that because it’s splintering the GOP… What do you think of that little, let’s say intra-party tiff here?” – Adam Weiss [07:00]
[16:30 – 40:00]
"It’s not the question that I mind. It's your attitude. I think you are a terrible reporter… As far as the Epstein files: I have nothing to do with Jeffrey Epstein. I threw him out of my club many years ago because I thought he was a sick pervert. But I guess I turned out to be right." – President Trump [44:45]
[52:30 – 1:09:30]

Adam Weiss’s Media Exposed provides a deeply skeptical, often combative take on how mainstream outlets report stories concerning Donald Trump, the GOP, and conservative America. The central argument is that media bias is more pronounced than ever in the coverage of GOP infighting (Trump vs. MTG), explosive issues like the Epstein files, and the optics around immigration enforcement. Weiss and guests advocate for better internal GOP unity, improved messaging (especially to women and younger voters), and a firmer focus on core issues like jobs and the economy to improve electoral prospects. The episode further criticizes exclusionary practices in cultural media around conservative figures and spotlights double standards in coverage of prominent women on the left versus the right.
For listeners who missed the episode:
This summarize gives you an in-depth look into this week’s Republican discourse and the broader narrative conflict between the MAGA movement and the “legacy media.” The tone is unfiltered, partisan, and unapologetically confrontational, consistent with the Real America’s Voice brand.
