Narativ with Zev Shalev (Audio)Democrats Tie Trump To Epstein But Have Not Made The Case (Yet)The House Judiciary Democrats put a case in writing Monday: Donald Trump as a participant in Jeffrey Epstein's crimes, and Todd Blanche covering it up. On Narativ Live, Ellie Leonard, who reads the Epstein files page by page, and Zev Shalev agreed on the aim and doubted the work.Leonard called the report "a big buildup to a best-of album." The Katie Johnson story, the Jane Doe stories and the Maxwell proffer were already public, she said, and "it just wasn't good enough at this late stage in the game." Shalev said the point of the document...

Narativ with Zev Shalev (Audio)LULA BEATS TRUMP’S MAN — AND SERBIA’S STRONGMAN FALLS THE SAME NIGHTBrazil’s electoral court called it at 9:12 PM Brasília time. With 99.76 percent of sections counted, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva took 51.75 percent — 64,066,539 votes — to Flávio Bolsonaro’s 48.25 percent, 59,724,015. A margin of 4.3 million. A fourth term. And, as Zev put it from the desk Sunday night, the end of “the most sustained campaign a US administration has ever run to pick Brazil’s president.”Three weeks ago this was Flávio’s to lose. He beat Lula in the first round on October 4 by 2.2 million votes. Trump called it “a very tight but great victory.” Prediction markets had h...

It is the story of how Russia infected American capitalism, crashed the markets more than once and captured the presidency, in that order, because the first two were needed to do the third.What the chapter proves.

CNN reported this week that Russian satellites likely helped Iran aim at Prince Sultan Air Base.

Kushner worked alongside Jeffries on the First Step Act last year and came away with a read on him.

The Israeli military also confirmed the killing of Gholamreza Soleimani, the head of the Basij paramilitary force. Zev put it bluntly: “Why is Israel killing the only people that America can talk to?

Narativ with Zev Shalev (Audio)Clinton Testifies, DOJ Database Goes Dark, Lutnick Photo Surfaces, and the Ellison Media TakeoverHillary Clinton testified behind closed doors today in Chappaqua before the House Oversight Committee, and within minutes the circus began. Rep. Lauren Boebert passed a photo from inside the closed-door deposition to conservative influencer Benny Johnson, pausing the hearing. Clinton demanded the session be public. Comer refused. Clinton’s opening statement was direct: she never met Epstein, never flew on his plane, never visited his island. Ellie Leonard noted the absurdity of the Pizzagate-era framing still driving the committee’s agenda while the man with thousands of mentions in the Epstein files sits untouched in the Oval Office. Meanwhile, a ph...

Narativ with Zev Shalev (Audio)Michael Cohen's Stunning Admission To Right Wing Talk Show: "I never wanted to testify"Michael Cohen secretly taped a two-hour interview with far-right podcaster Patrick Bet-David in early January — and told that audience things he’s never told his Substack subscribers. He said he never wanted to testify against Trump. He called the Russia investigation a “hoax.” He praised Trump as a great baseball player, reminisced about their breakfasts together, and admitted that if someone had shown him “a shred of loyalty,” he would have kept his mouth shut and done three to six months like Allen Weisselberg. “I would never have testified,” Cohen said. “I didn’t want to.” Even the right-wing host seemed stunned.

A two-hour interview between Epstein and Steve Bannon, recorded in 2019 and released this weekend, shows the convicted sex offender describing in detail how he advised world leaders and financial institutions during the worst economic collapse since the Depression - all while sitting in a Palm Beach County jail cell. As Zev Shalev explained on Sunday’s special edition, the footage is remarkable because we’ve never heard Epstein discuss anything at this length, and what...

When the EU threatened retaliatory tariffs over Trump’s military threats, Trump ruled out using force within hours.
