Featuring an in-depth interview with investigative journalist Jill Savage, the episode explores Mills' alleged misconduct, financial improprieties, and the broader implications for Republican leadership.
Mass Deportations: Analyzing the Data
Timestamp: 02:32 – 17:22
Jill Savage begins by examining the effectiveness of Trump's mass deportation strategies, presenting three key data points to argue that mass deportations are indeed occurring:
-
Employment Decline Among Foreign-Born Workers:
- "The Bureau of Labor Statistics survey estimates that about 1.2 million foreign-born workers in the United States that were there in January 2025 are no longer working."
- "Another study by the National Foundation of American Policy estimates that number could be as large as 1.7 million."
-
Decrease in Remittances to Mexico:
- "According to the Mexican Central Bank, remittances have decreased by almost 6% since the beginning of the year and by more than 16% year on year since June."
-
Stagnation and Decline in Hispanic Birth Rates:
- "Birth rates among Latinos are down about a thousand from February to June 2025 compared to the same period in 2024."
- "Specifically, Mexican-born women saw a 4% decline, and Salvadoran women saw a 9% decline in birth rates."
Savage concludes that these indicators suggest both governmental and self-deportations are contributing to a reduction in the foreign-born population in the U.S., although there is some contention among institutions like the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco regarding the overall population impact.

Jill Savage transitions to the central focus of the episode: the dark side of Congressman Corey Mills. She outlines a series of allegations that have surfaced against Mills, with insights from firsthand accounts and investigative research.
Extravagant First Dates and Love Bombing
Savage recounts how Mills allegedly used excessive spending and emotional manipulation to entrap multiple women:
- "He had lavished gifts on her—very expensive gifts. That's a lot for a first date. Like, if you've, you know, that's not somebody who's got a couple million in the bank throwing a first date around." (Timestamp: 02:13)
- This behavior, characterized as "love bombing," involved Mills promising marriage and a future with the women he dated.
Pattern of Deception and Threats
Several women have come forward with similar stories of deception and intimidation:
- After discovering Mills was seeing multiple women simultaneously, one woman expressed feeling unsafe and fearing for her safety: "I might be gone, girl. That's how uneasy she felt around him." (Timestamp: 03:21)
- Lindsay Langston, a Republican State Committee member and reigning Miss United States beauty pageant winner, filed a restraining order against Mills. She accused him of threatening to release intimate videos and photos if she spoke out:
- "If you speak about this, speak about me, I will release our private sex videos." (Timestamp: 35:04)
Financial Improprieties and Congressional Scrutiny
Beyond personal misconduct, Mills faces scrutiny over financial dealings:
- Weapon Company and Foreign Contracts:
- "He owns a weapons company that he founded... They were notified that their foreign creditors were moving to liquidate tens of millions of dollars of unpaid foreign debt that Corey Mills just happened to never disclose to Congress."
- Ethics Violations:
- "The Office of Congressional Conduct has also referred Mills to the House Ethics Committee for investigations, finding that he likely violated federal ethics and campaign finance laws."
