Live From Studio 6B

Tonight on Live From Studio 6B, Damon Roberts, Rick Delgado, Rick Ammirati, Vin Butta, and Beni Rae Harmony break down the biggest fights in Washington, the UN, and the media. President Trump tells the UN he has a "big decision" on Iran: a deal that lets Tehran rebuild, or driving the Islamic Republic "into hell." He frames it as settling years of unfinished business and not letting a nuclear threat fester. Arkansas Democrat Hallie Shoffner doubles down after saying farmers would "trade five Americans" for one "undocumented immigrant." Tom Cotton's campaign is hammering the remark in the Senate race. Former ABC correspondent Terry Moran says he pitched a Biden frailty story after watching the president in Japan in 2023 — and network bosses shut it down as "the medical unit's business." Sen. Chris Murphy calls for "regulating the internet" so lonely Americans are less likely to "fall for" Trump. Barack Obama, at Colgate, warns "bad humans" could weaponize AI and says government has to regulate it. Plus scores, studio banter, and whatever else explodes before 10 p.m. If Trump is "settling unfinished business" with Iran, and Democrats want to regulate the internet and AI — who do you trust with the big decisions: voters, or Washington?

ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, and Fox suspend White House TV pool coverage after CNN is blocked from its rotation. CNN, MS NOW, and Politico notify the administration they are suing to restore access they say was vetoed over coverage the president calls fake news. Newly released FBI photos of Biden document searches show gloves, neat stacks, and a quiet process. Watchdogs contrast that with the Mar-a-Lago raid images and call it kid-glove treatment. President Trump announces an "AI Force" modeled on Space Force and says he will name an AI czar. He frames it as protecting U.S. dominance while using existing law against "bad" actors. Minnesota federal judges describe email threads, templates, and clerk spreadsheets used to handle a surge of Trump-era immigration habeas cases. Critics call it coordination; the bench says it is caseload management. The crew hits the board, the lines, and the oddities of the night. Hosted by Damon Roberts, Rick Delgado, Rick Ammirati, and Paul Nolan. Should the White House control which cameras cover the president, or is a pool walkout the press protecting the public's right to see what happens?

Tonight on Live From Studio 6B: Paul Nolan, Rick Delgado, Rick Amiratti, and Kevin Downey Jr. break a stacked Friday with news, sports, and a live guest. Holdout Lindsay Clancy juror Michael P. Desronvil says he never had reasonable doubt that she murdered her three children — and believes being a Black Republican put a target on his back after the hung jury and mistrial. President Trump says CNN, MS NOW, and Politico are banned from the White House "effective immediately," calling their coverage fiction and fake news. Outlets call it a First Amendment fight. Who belongs in the briefing room? Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin defends ICE after GOP Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar says the department is going after non-criminals. Mullin's line: illegal entry is already a crime. "A criminal is a criminal." Trump declares victory on a historic deal with Denmark and Greenland: permanent U.S. military access, basing, and overflight — and a bar on adversary bases or sensitive investments without U.S. approval. Signing expected at the U.N. next week. Are AI giants manufacturing a crisis — energy crunch, data-center boom, "doomsday" talk — to lock in their own business? The panel cuts through the panic. Scores, odds, and the week's leftover fights. Jordan Meyer joins to talk his new RAM release with Hi-Rez. Should a president be able to ban news outlets from the White House — or is that a line you never cross?

The Detroit News endorses Mike Rogers and delivers a brutal takedown of Abdul El-Sayed for deleting social media posts and videos that raised questions about his views after 9/11, police, and America. The paper says a candidate who hides his past cannot be trusted after Election Day. Twitch streamer and El-Sayed campaign surrogate Hasan Piker tells Axios that America is worse than al-Qaeda "pound for pound" in deaths caused. The comments land on Constitution Day and immediately blow back on the Michigan Senate race. Real median household income hits a record $87,460 in 2025. The official poverty rate falls to 10.2%. The White House frames it as results; critics note many Americans still don't feel it. House Democrats join Republicans in a 352-72 vote making Trump's National Fraud Enforcement Division permanent—a reluctant win for the administration as it keeps the heat on Minnesota and Gov. Tim Walz over massive social-services fraud. Season 29 premieres with the show rebranded "South America" and a new intro featuring a nude animated Trump wiping himself with the American flag. The episode itself stays mostly local. Damon Roberts, Rick Delgado, Rick Ammirati, Vin Butta, and Beni Rae Harmony hit the rest of the board—scores, headlines, and whatever else is exploding tonight. Should a newspaper endorsement that calls out a deleted past matter more than a streamer's America-vs-al-Qaeda comparison?

President Trump hits the stage in Gastonia tonight for Michael Whatley's Senate rally. Then the panel unpacks the day's political firefights — from newly released Butler shooter records that blindsided GOP investigators, to Nancy Mace's clash with Lindsay Clancy's lawyer, the House holding billionaire Leon Black in contempt, and AOC blasting Patriots owner Robert Kraft over Macklemore. Sports and more with Damon Roberts, Rick Delgado, Rick Ammirati, and Paul Nolan. President Trump speaks at Michael Whatley's campaign rally at Gastonia Municipal Airport as the North Carolina Senate race against Roy Cooper heats up. GOP lawmakers say they were blindsided by new documents on Thomas Matthew Crooks — including that his father sought to keep him from guns months before Butler and later handed over the rifle used. Nancy Mace and attorney Kevin Reddington trade barbs after Mace called for a public execution "warning" in the Lindsay Clancy case. The House unanimously holds billionaire Leon Black in contempt for defying Epstein-related subpoenas. AOC accuses Patriots owner Robert Kraft of lining up stadiums to "censor" Macklemore over criticism of Israel. Scores, headlines, and the night's leftover chaos. Should Congress finally get a full accounting of the Butler assassination attempt — or is two years of delay the story?

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani and AG Letitia James are suing the Trump administration over the public-charge rule set to take effect Friday. Officials could deny green cards and visas if applicants look likely to use Medicaid, food aid, or housing help. Damon Roberts' First Word: Democrats run a simple operation — import people who need things, give them things, then harvest their gratitude at the ballot box. New FBI records: Thomas Matthew Crooks used the alias "Bob Dole" to receive rifle parts before the July 2024 Butler attack. An anonymous donor later paid for his cremation. Motive still unsolved. Mitch McConnell is back on the Senate floor for the first time since his June hospitalization, arriving in a wheelchair after a three-month absence. DOJ: Jonathan Hunter Kramer, 21, of Valencia, Pa., arrested with a semiautomatic rifle and 190 rounds after allegedly plotting an ISIS "mission." Macklemore says he was dropped from Ed Sheeran's U.S. tour after Patriots owner Robert Kraft and other stadium owners issued an ultimatum over his onstage "Free Palestine" remarks. Kraft says venues will not platform what he calls hate speech. Lines, matchups, and the rest of the day's action with the Studio 6B crew. Hosts: Damon Roberts, Rick Delgado, Rick Ammirati, Vin Butta, and Beni Rae Harmony. Should welfare use block a green card — or is this just another lawsuit to keep the pipeline open?

VP JD Vance announced a permanent ban on about 870,000 borrowers tied to suspected COVID-era PPP and EIDL fraud — as much as $39 billion in taxpayer money. "If you screwed the American taxpayer… you're cut off." NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani and NY AG Letitia James sued to block a Trump public-charge rule that would let officers weigh welfare, SNAP, and Medicaid use when denying visas and green cards. The rule is slated to take effect Sept. 18. Trump called anti-AI catastrophe warnings a "HOAX" after Anthropic's Dario Amodei, Sam Altman, and Elon Musk backed a slowdown. White House line: America leads China — don't kneecap the industry. Trump said he's lifting the 10% tariff on Irish whiskey after "everybody's been bugging me," including Ireland's Taoiseach and Irish Open winner Shane Lowry. Applies to Ireland, not the whole EU. A Lindsay Clancy juror said the panel saw the mistrial as a chance to "make it better for other women." Legal analysts called that reasoning a problem: juries apply the law, they don't rewrite it. Odds, sports, and more. Guest Chad Prather on his new RAM track. Hosts: Damon Roberts, Rick Delgado, Rick Ammirati, Paul Nolan. Should suspected pandemic loan fraudsters be permanently cut off from future federal loans — or is that overreach without a conviction?

America marks a quarter-century since 9/11. Names are read at Ground Zero, the Pentagon, and Shanksville. A seventh moment of silence is added for those later killed by 9/11-related illness. The country is not the same one that woke up on September 11, 2001. Imagining a threat and preparing for a threat are two different things. The panel looks at what we learned after the attacks — and what we still refuse to face. Ceremonies at the reflecting pools, Flight 93's Wall of Names, and the Pentagon. Vice President Vance and all four living former presidents attend in New York. President Trump speaks at the Pentagon. At Ground Zero, 9/11 families confront Bush, Obama, and Biden over what they call a Saudi "deep state" cover-up. They plead with Trump and Vance to release unredacted files and tell Riyadh to stop lying. Damon Roberts, Rick Delgado, Vin Butta, and Kevin Downey Jr. look back at the days after the attacks — and ask what "never forget" actually means in 2026.

Damon on the real meaning of Labor Day — work, family, and what the holiday was actually built to honor, one day after the 2026 observance. U.S. forces strike near Iran's Kharg Island and Jask. Explosions reported. Oil tankers targeted after IRGC attacks on Navy ships. Tit-for-tat fighting continues. Trump tries to close his primary endorsement streak tonight in New Hampshire as John Sununu faces Scott Brown. Oddsmakers recap and more. Charlie Kirk's biggest legacy: inspiring young people to get married. Erika Kirk's New York Times essay, "What I've Learned About Grief," one year after his assassination. Socialism 2026 speakers in Chicago link fitness culture, dieting, and BMI to "body fascism." Trump honors fallen 9/11 heroes as the South Tower steel beam tour reaches D.C. on the Ellipse, days before the 25th anniversary. What do you think Charlie Kirk's real legacy is?

LIVE FROM STUDIO 6B — Damon Roberts, Rick Delgado, Rick Ammirati, Paul Nolan, and Beni Rae Harmony break the day's biggest fights in court, Congress, media, and the markets. A Massachusetts judge officially declared a mistrial in the Lindsay Clancy murder case after jurors deadlocked following about a week of deliberations. Clancy does not deny killing her three children; the fight was over criminal responsibility and postpartum psychosis. Prosecutors now decide whether to retry. A status hearing is set for Sept. 29. She remains held at Tewksbury State Hospital. Latest University of New Hampshire polling has former Sen. John Sununu ahead of Rep. Chris Pappas, 45–43, in the race for Jeanne Shaheen's open New Hampshire Senate seat. Inside Elections just moved the race to toss-up. Primaries land Tuesday, Sept. 8. Maria Bartiromo's attorney, Bryan Freedman, says reports she was fired by Fox are "absolutely and unequivocally false," claiming "we have the receipts." Fox announced Thursday she is "no longer with FOX News Media." Freedman has previously represented Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Don Lemon, and Chris Cuomo. Sen. Mitch McConnell has now been out of public view for more than 80 days since a June fall and pneumonia. Rep. James Comer says McConnell's staff wants him back when the Senate returns Sept. 14. Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear has demanded more transparency. McConnell has missed 60 roll-call votes. Romanian prosecutors formally indicted Andrew Tate on trafficking of minors, money laundering, sex with a minor, and witness tampering. Tristan Tate was charged with complicity. Both deny wrongdoing. The brothers are jailed in the U.S. amid a separate U.K. extradition fight. President Trump signed orders Friday aimed at cheaper beef: a temporary tariff pause on 300,000 metric tons of lean beef trimmings, country-of-origin labeling on foreign beef, and a path for ranchers to process their own meat. Trump named Brazil and Argentina among sources. Ranchers remain split. Lines, weekend action, and the rest of the board before we close the hour. Should prosecutors retry Lindsay Clancy — or is this case already too broken to try again?
