Plus: Melania demands Kimmel be fired, Trump torches 60 Minutes, and DeSantis redraws Florida. All in today's episode.
The mentalist hired to entertain at the White House Correspondents' Dinner was performing for the President when shots rang out. Oz Pearlman hit the deck inches from Donald Trump. Their eyes locked. He thought a bomb was about to detonate. He thought the President had been hurt. Then he had to crawl off the stage not knowing if Trump was alive. Chuck Frank breaks down the eyewitness account most outlets aren't replaying in full.
Then the press tour got worse. Norah O'Donnell sat across from the President on 60 Minutes and read aloud from the alleged shooter's writings. Trump's reaction was instant. Plus the Jimmy Kimmel "expectant widow" line that aired two days before the actual shooting and now has Melania calling on ABC to act. The DeSantis redistricting move that could flip four GOP seats while Virginia's 2025 redraw drew zero national outrage. And a closing prayer about a pattern Chuck believes the country isn't ready to face.

Plus: DOJ adds firing squads, four Senate Republicans torpedo the Save America Act, and a Florida Democrat files for reelection days before resigning under federal indictment. All in today's episode.
Cole Tomas Allen, 31, descended 17 floors of the Washington Hilton with a shotgun, a handgun, and a bag of knives. Before he stormed the WHCD ballroom, he wrote a manifesto and sent it to his family. He attended a No Kings protest. He donated to ActBlue. On Bluesky, he called President Trump the antichrist. A senior Trump administration official confirmed the details to Breitbart News. Chuck breaks down what the manifesto actually says and what the Secret Service missed in plain sight.
Then: The DOJ adds firing squads to federal capital cases as Acting AG Todd Blanche reverses Biden's commutation of 37 of 40 death row inmates. Rachel Bovard names the four Senate Republicans who voted down John Kennedy's Save America Act amendment 48 to 50. A Florida Democrat indicted for allegedly diverting $5 million in FEMA disaster relief filed for reelection four days before her resignation. A UFO whistleblower scheduled to testify before Congress turned up dead from a lethal four-drug overdose. And John Nolte explains what the Michael Jackson biopic critics may not have actually read.
The truth starts now.

Plus: Hasan Piker's disturbing defense of Luigi Mangione, a mom's RPG-loaded Lexus seized at the Arizona border, and a Utah 10-year-old's alleged kidnapping to Cuba — all in today's episode.
Eleven federal charges. Wire fraud. Money laundering. Conspiracy. The Southern Poverty Law Center — the self-appointed guardian of American decency — allegedly funneled donor dollars straight into the hands of the extremist groups it claimed to be fighting. And the donor list reads like a Hollywood after-party: George Clooney, former Apple CEO Tim Cook, George Soros, JP Morgan, and yes, even Chick-fil-A. FBI Director Kash Patel laid it out in one sentence: the charity that fought the Klan funded the Klan. Every patriot who ever got slandered by an SPLC "hate map" just watched the mask come off.
And that's just story six. Chuck breaks down Twitch celebrity Hasan Piker justifying an alleged cold-blood assassination as "social murder," a border bust that pulled an RPG launcher tube and 16 AK-style rifles out of a Lexus carrying three kids, a DOJ parental-kidnapping case involving a 10-year-old trafficked through Canada and Mexico to Havana, Todd Blanche's DOJ rescheduling medical marijuana for veterans and seniors, and Reps. Lauren Boebert and Eric Burlison exposing the FISA backdoor that's building a de facto gun registry. Congress has until April 30. The remnant is paying attention. Truth starts now.

Plus: Virginia judge blocks $64M redistricting push, Navy Secretary Phelan fired, Planned Parenthood's 40% gender surge, Trump halts Iran executions, and the FCC targets children's TV ratings — all in today's episode.
The "anti-hate" smear machine just got federally indicted on 11 counts. Prosecutors allege the Southern Poverty Law Center secretly funneled more than $3 million to individuals tied to the very extremist groups the SPLC publicly claimed to be fighting, including groups the DOJ named in the indictment from 2014 through 2023. Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson served on the SPLC board in 2017, inside that alleged window. Chuck breaks down what the DOJ is charging, what it isn't, and why the legacy press is going quiet on a story that should be leading every broadcast this week.
Also in today's episode: a Virginia judge throws out a redistricting referendum bankrolled with more than $64 million in out-of-state Democratic money, a thin 51.5 to 48.5 margin unraveling in court before it was ever certified. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth fires Navy Secretary John Phelan effective immediately, with UnderSecretary Hung Cao stepping in. The FCC opens public comment on whether voluntary TV ratings from the 1990s are still telling parents what their kids are actually being shown. Concerned Women for America documents a 40 percent surge in gender-affirming care at Planned Parenthood's regional clinics. And President Trump intervenes directly on Truth Social, sparing eight Iranian women protesters from execution.
Plus: Texas wins the 10 Commandments ruling at the 5th Circuit, Trump pauses the Iran strike at Pakistan's request, and retail sales blow past every economist forecast — all in today's episode.
The Department of Justice just dropped an 11-count federal indictment on the Southern Poverty Law Center. Wire fraud. False statements to a federally insured bank. Conspiracy to commit money laundering. And according to the indictment, more than $3 million in donor money allegedly flowed toward the very kinds of extremist groups the SPLC built its brand denouncing. Grandma and Grandpa who wrote those annual checks deserve to know where it ended up. Chuck walks the whole paper trail.
From there: the 5th Circuit's Texas 10 Commandments victory and what it actually means for the First Amendment. Retail sales surging 1.7% in March — up 4% year over year per the Commerce Department — while the legacy press keeps insisting you're living in a recession. Trump pausing the Iran strike at the request of Pakistan's leadership while, by his own statement, the blockade earns a billion dollars a day. Axios floating six anonymous sources on DeSantis, Hegseth, and a Supreme Court seat. A YouGov poll showing MAGA economic sentiment fully recovered to pre-war levels. And a certain MSNBC host suggesting Americans should "go to the mullahs" to decode our own president. Six stories for seven AM. Truth starts now.
Plus: Cornyn's hidden pensions and a perjury-era past, Trump's Labor Secretary resigns in scandal, and 200 journalists plotting a correspondents dinner ambush. All in today's episode.
Ground beef and steak prices are up nearly 50% since July 2020 according to reporting from Gateway Pundit, and the Department of Justice has finally launched the investigation into foreign meatpacker collusion that President Trump ordered back in November. Chuck breaks down why this cartel has been bleeding American grocery budgets for years, why the DOJ sat on the order for five months, and what it means when the majority of the companies inflating your beef bill aren't even American-owned. This is the story mainstream media will not touch.
Then Chuck pulls back the curtain on Senator John Cornyn's resurfaced legal history, the Senate Republican push to stop Democrat climate lawfare against American energy producers, Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer's resignation amid an active Inspector General investigation into reported misconduct, and the open letter signed by Dan Rather and 200 other journalists demanding the White House Correspondents Association publicly confront President Trump at Saturday's dinner. Chuck has thoughts. They are not kind.
There's a famine of truth in the land. This is your 7 AM fix.

Plus: Iran blockade escalates, an LAX arms trafficker bust, Trump ends degree welfare, and a Chinese robot just stunned the world. All in today's episode.
FBI Director Kash Patel walked onto Sunday Morning Futures this weekend and said the quiet part out loud. The Department of Justice has what it needs. The prosecutors are working. And Comey isn't the only name on the list. If you have watched the last six years unfold and wondered whether anyone would ever be held to account for what was done to a sitting president and a national election, Patel just told Maria Bartiromo to watch this space. Tulsi has 200 pages. Patel has the rest.
Meanwhile the ceasefire with Iran expires Tuesday. The US Navy put a hole in an Iranian cargo ship in the Gulf of Oman. An Iranian-born green card holder was arrested at LAX on charges of brokering tens of millions in weapons deals for Tehran. And the Department of Education just pulled the plug on the federal loan scam that has ballooned graduate tuition by 340%. Oh, and a humanoid robot in Beijing ran a half marathon six minutes faster than the fastest human alive. Chuck says it's time to pray. You'll see why.
Six stories, four 7AM. The truth starts now.

Plus: California's new far-left frontrunner exposes his radical ICE agenda, a Florida doctor faces manslaughter charges for removing the wrong organ, young men surge back to faith, and NYC plans a reported $30 million government grocery store — all in today's episode.
DNI Tulsi Gabbard's office has sent criminal referrals to the DOJ targeting the whistleblower and former ICIG Michael Atkinson — the architects of President Trump's 2019 impeachment. Newly declassified documents expose what officials say was a coordinated effort to manufacture a political conspiracy. Meanwhile, the US expands its Iran naval blockade to worldwide enforcement, and a Gallup survey confirms 42% of young American men now say faith is very important — up from 28% just two years ago. The remnant is rising. Truth starts now.

Plus: Iran's economy faces a 12-year rebuild after the war, markets hit all-time record highs, a VA Senior Executive is indicted in a $16 billion contract corruption case, new ATF ballistics findings in the Charlie Kirk assassination case, and Miss America's eligibility rules just changed — all in today's episode.
Ten scientists, researchers, and military officials with access to America's most guarded nuclear and space secrets have vanished or turned up dead — and the White House just broke its silence. During Wednesday's press briefing, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt was asked directly about ten people tied to space or nuclear programs who have mysteriously disappeared or died since 2023. Retired Air Force General William Neil McCasland. A NASA materials scientist. Workers from the facility that manufactures the non-nuclear components for America's entire nuclear arsenal. All last seen walking out of their homes without their phones, their wallets, or their keys. The pattern is documented. The answers aren't.
Meanwhile, a Department of Veterans Affairs Senior Executive has been indicted for concealing thousands of dollars in cash, casino chips, and gifts from contractors while running a $16 billion federal health record modernization project — and the DOJ, FBI, and VA Inspector General are all moving on it. Chuck Frank has the full breakdown, plus what the markets hitting record highs actually means for you, and what the ATF report in the Kirk case is really saying.

Plus: Chinese tankers back down as the US Navy holds Day One of the Iran blockade, Obama strategist David Axelrod spotted at the Vatican just before Pope Leo XIV escalated attacks on President Trump, an Air Force officer's COVID mandate fight hits another bureaucratic wall four years later, and the FAA goes recruiting in the gaming world — all in today's episode.
A bombshell DOJ report has confirmed what many suspected — and the number alone stops you cold. Over 700,000 internal records were reviewed. The National Abortion Federation, Planned Parenthood, and the Feminist Majority Foundation didn't just lobby. They built dossiers. They handed over names. And career attorneys inside the Biden DOJ were tracking pro-life Americans for years before a single charge was ever filed. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche has gone on record: this will not happen again. Chuck's question is the one nobody in Washington wants to answer — what happens to the people who made it happen the first time?
Meanwhile, the United States Navy held the Strait of Hormuz on Day One of the Iran blockade, and two Chinese tankers that approached the zone reversed course without incident. Over 10,000 American sailors, airmen, and marines are deployed. China issued its strongest condemnation yet — and Chuck has a word about what that tells you about Beijing's real economic position. Plus, CBS News confirmed David Axelrod met with Pope Leo XIV at the Vatican, and within days three Cardinals were on 60 Minutes targeting President Trump and US immigration policy. Commentators Tom Fitton and Mike Cernovich are calling it coordinated. Chuck tells you exactly what he thinks the play is — and who it's aimed at heading into the midterms. The truth starts now.
