Anthony Fauci pleaded the Fifth 111 times before the Senate, and now Florida has issued a formal state subpoena over alleged self-dealing during the pandemic — that's the reporting from Breitbart, citing Attorney General James Uthmeier. What is in the diary he kept? Who signed the $900,000 check? We start there.

Also in today's episode: two Republican senators are reportedly sitting on the John Brennan transcripts the DOJ has been asking for since winter. Michigan Democrats are openly saying they'll cross over to Mike Rogers. The DOJ reaches a third hospital deal over treatments for minors. A Senate panel now holds a forensic copy of Fauci's phone. And the CDC gets confirmed new leadership.

Six stories. Seven o'clock. The truth starts now.

An ARMED man was arrested at Trump National Golf Club in Rancho Palos Verdes days before President Trump's visit, and what deputies found afterward is the story.

Per the L.A. County Sheriff's Department (via Fox News and ABC News): the suspect was seen photographing and monitoring security-planning activities. Deputies recovered hollow-point ammunition, a loaded pistol, body armor, high-capacity magazines, an illegally modified rifle, two radio-signal devices, and multiple notebooks the Sheriff's Department would only describe as containing "concerning statements." He has been charged. What was in those notebooks? Authorities aren't saying yet.

Also in today's episode: an armed citizen who returned fire at the Twin Falls, Idaho In-N-Out and says the gunman's bravado "immediately crumbled." A divided DC Circuit orders the EPA to keep roughly $20 billion in Biden-era climate grants flowing. Jeanine Pirro carries a white box into the West Wing after Trump publicly rips her over the Reflecting Pool case. New Texas Senate polls collide over Paxton vs. Talarico. And the 11th Circuit hands Florida a win on its child-protection law.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day just posted a $360 MILLION opening — the biggest weekend in box office history, past even Avengers: Endgame — burying years of Hollywood excuses about COVID and streaming (per John Nolte at Breitbart). And in New York, a federal court just stepped between the state and four orders of Catholic nuns, one day before an assisted-suicide mandate takes effect.

Also in today's episode: the Todd Blanche attorney general vote hits the Senate Judiciary Committee this morning after a $1.8 billion fund was rescinded. A South Carolina Senate candidate breaks with her own party's caution and backs killing the filibuster to pass the SAVE Act. A Florida Democrat says he would apologize "to the world" on election night. And President Trump stands up a new Military Spouse Commission led by Jennifer Hegseth.

Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger restored voting rights to more than 66,000 Virginians with past felony convictions, months before the midterms, according to Breitbart and her own office's press release. Her Republican predecessor restored fewer than 10,000, reviewing each case one by one. So why the rush to 66,000 now? We connect the headline to the moment.

Also in today's episode: FCC Chairman Brendan Carr puts Disney's The View on notice over federal equal-time rules while it claims to be a "news" program. Washington State burns under a wildfire state of emergency. A four-day school week is spreading fast, and the reading scores that came with it will surprise you. Trump dangles the weaponization fund over a stalled confirmation. And a Maine Senate race no one saw coming.

Anthony Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment 111 times before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee on Wednesday, refusing to answer a single question about the COVID years. Senator Bernie Moreno of Ohio was in that room. Then Moreno got to the diaries.

Also in today's episode: the Smithsonian secretary who called DEI integral to excellence in museum practice drew $4.4 million in salary and added benefits from 2020 to 2024, according to a Fox News Digital review of the institution's 990 filings, while federal taxpayers still fund roughly 60 percent of its budget. Spain's socialist government finally deploys the army to Ceuta after police sources put the crossing at a number officials will not confirm. President Trump launches the Freedom Haulers initiative to put veterans in the driver's seat. A US-Saudi consortium plans a $5 billion refinery engineered to never touch the Strait of Hormuz. And Arizona's governor will skip the debate stage for a second straight cycle.

Then Chuck closes with a personal postlude. It is about how his own life began, and it is under two minutes.

Anthony Fauci invoked the Fifth Amendment 111 times before Senator Rand Paul's committee on Wednesday, and the pardon he is holding is exactly what makes that answer impossible to explain.

Breitbart's John Nolte lays out the trap. The pardon Joe Biden signed covers offenses going back to January 2014. You can only plead the Fifth when you are in legal jeopardy. So for every year that pardon covers, there was no jeopardy to hide behind. Which leaves one question that nobody on that committee got an answer to, and it is the question we walk through tonight.

Also in today's episode: a Christian father of eleven, raided at gunpoint before sunrise by the Biden DOJ for a pro-life sit-in, just collected a seven-figure settlement from the Trump DOJ, and the number behind who the FACE Act has actually been used against will stop you cold. Federal agents arrested 905 suspected human traffickers and rescued 180 victims during the World Cup, thirty of them children, and one of those operations had been running in plain sight for over twenty years. Trump announces a $22 billion overhaul of Dulles. The Todd Blanche attorney general vote gets yanked hours before the markup, and it is not the Democrats who stopped it. And Marjorie Taylor Greene gets married in Las Vegas.

Only 6% of Massachusetts newcomer students graduated proficient in English, according to the Boston Globe's reporting on a new Brown University study. Migrant high school enrollment across the state fell from more than 6,400 to roughly 5,300 in a single year. Nobody is hiding these numbers. The question is what anyone intends to do about them.

Also in today's episode: a Wisconsin brewery known for promising free beer the day President Trump dies has been hit with a state revocation notice, and the owner says he will fight it to the end. Elon Musk quietly launched a bank inside X, with a Visa card, direct deposit and a 6% yield attached to it. The Wall Street Journal reports President Trump is pressing HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to move faster on cutting the childhood vaccine schedule. And with the midterms closing in, the RNC reports 129 million dollars on hand against the DNC's 16.3 million, a spread most of the coverage is burying.

Plus five rapid-fire stories to open the show: a nationwide FAA ground stop, Iran's attempted surprise missile strike on U.S. forces, a fifth round of terminations at DNI, a new director of national intelligence confirmed by the Senate, and a governor calling on Senator Mitch McConnell to speak publicly or resign.

Joe Biden's ghostwriter tapes are out. More than 70 hours of them. On the recording he tells Mark Zwonitzer, "Some of this may be classified, so be careful."

Special Counsel Robert Hur's report said his investigation uncovered evidence that Biden willfully retained and disclosed classified material after his vice presidency. Hur declined to charge him. Now the audio is public, released Monday by the Oversight Project after Biden's attorneys dropped their fight to keep it sealed. Prosecutors also declined to charge the ghostwriter.

Also in today's episode: Judicial Watch pried 415 pages of FBI records loose under FOIA, and one four-page teletype sent two days after TWA Flight 800 went down states that FBI headquarters was in receipt of faxes generated from Cairo claiming credit. Thirty years. 230 people. And per Judicial Watch, that document was never part of the public story.

Investigative reporter Natalie Winters says FARA filings and China-United States Exchange Foundation records identify American journalists from The New York Times, CNN, NPR, the Associated Press and The Washington Post who took China trips funded by a CCP-linked foundation.

President Trump signs an executive order putting warning signs on the National Park Service sidewalks outside the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History. Cracker Barrel's CEO is out after the logo revolt. And a $30 million movie opens to $1.6 million.

Fauci kept a diary. Senate Homeland Security Chairman Rand Paul just released the entries from December 2019 through December 2022, and what Fauci wrote privately about his own fame while the death toll climbed is not what he told America.

Bobbleheads. Sexiest Man Alive petitions. Beers named after him. An Instagram Live with Steph Curry. On March 10, 2020, as the country locked down, Fauci wrote: "For better or worse, I am becoming an international celebrity." A sitting congresswoman called him a national hero and said she felt safe in his arms. He wrote that down too. Reporting via The Gateway Pundit.

He is under oath Wednesday, July 29, before the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. Chuck is betting on amnesia.

Also in today's episode: the co-chair of the Democratic Socialists of America sat on Fox News Sunday and answered true to abolishing the Senate, the presidency, the Supreme Court, ICE, borders, prisons, and the Pentagon. The WNBA's All-Star jerseys had no USA 250 patch and the league still has not explained why. Nearly 2,200 beagles walked out of a Wisconsin breeding facility that had never once let them feel grass. Four wildland firefighters are dead in the most active fire year in a decade. And Harvard is reportedly handing Alejandro Mayorkas a fellowship.

A Chicago plumber says the Obama Presidential Center project left him nearly $4 million in the hole: operations suspended, 25 union workers laid off, and a $1.72 million mechanics lien now filed against the property, per his account to Fox News. Chuck breaks down what the "economic opportunity" project actually delivered for the tradesmen who built it.

Also in today's episode: FCC Chairman Brendan Carr puts ABC's broadcast license squarely on the table, and one commissioner cries censorship. AOC and Pete Buttigieg top the 2028 Democrat field in New Hampshire while Kamala Harris collapses. Homicide plunges toward a historic low and the experts swear they cannot explain it.
