  • This Is How Trump Will Destroy His Own Goons
    Jul 5 2026
    Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles break down why the political winds may finally be shifting against Donald Trump, and what Michael believes is the single psychological factor that could determine whether his presidency survives the coming midterms. They examine the fallout from Trump's strikes on Iran, the political gamble of rising gas prices, the increasingly competitive Senate map in Texas and Maine, and why Republicans could suddenly find themselves defending territory they once took for granted. Along the way, they explore the Democratic Party's uncertain strategy, Elon Musk's lingering political influence, and whether Trump has any path back if Republicans suffer the kind of losses Wolff predicts, before closing with a revealing look inside how Trump is likely to react if the election becomes the biggest setback of his political career.

  • Melania Is Unleashing Revenge Dogs on Me: Wolff
    Jul 3 2026
    Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles pull back the curtain on the hidden power brokers shaping Donald Trump’s presidency, revealing why one little-known lawyer may now wield more influence over Trump’s legal strategy than anyone else. Wolff shares explosive new details from his personal legal battle with Melania Trump, explains how Trump’s courtroom tactics are designed to drain opponents through delay and intimidation, and argues that the president’s legal operation now revolves around a modern-day Roy Cohn. They also unpack Trump’s staggering $2.2 billion windfall, Melania’s multimillion-dollar earnings, the Supreme Court’s latest decisions, the growing fight inside the Democratic Party ahead of the midterms, and why Trump’s off-the-cuff foreign policy comments continue to reshape global headlines despite, as Wolff argues, having little grounding in reality.
