The Smithsonian is under siege. Trump’s latest order demands that our nation’s museums sanitize slavery, sugarcoat oppression, and serve up propaganda in place of truth. This episode exposes the real stakes: democracy itself, and whether America tells its story honestly—or lets Trump rewrite it.

This week on The Enemies List, Rick Wilson delivers a double-barreled blast at two dangerous actors inside Trump’s orbit. First up: Steve Witkoff, Trump’s real “acting” Secretary of State, who bumbled his way into a private summit with Vladimir Putin and handed the Russian dictator a propaganda victory. From legitimizing a war criminal to floating a “peace deal” that rewards Russia’s invasion by carving up Ukraine, Witkoff’s incompetence is a masterclass in diplomatic disaster. Rick breaks down how Trump’s obsession with a Nobel Peace Prize, combined with his unshakable loyalty to Putin, is putting NATO, Eastern Europe, and America’s security at risk.

This week on The Enemies List, Rick Wilson zeroes in on Texas Governor Greg Abbott’s latest authoritarian stunt: a blatantly corrupt redistricting power grab that aims to rig the 2026 election before a single vote is cast. As Texas Democrats flee the state to block quorum, Abbott threatens arrests and removals—desperate moves from a party that knows it can’t win fairly. Rick pulls no punches, calling out the apartheid-style gerrymandering, the legal thuggery, and the spineless MAGA loyalty behind this brazen scheme. This isn’t policy—it’s political warfare. And Abbott is trying to be Trump’s loyal soldier in the redistricting coup.

Rick lays out what’s at stake: if Democrats don’t fight fire with fire in states like California, New York, and Illinois, Republicans will steamroll their way to an illegitimate majority in 2026—and possibly end free elections as we know them. From election cheating and voter suppression to redistricting corruption, authoritarian power grabs, and Trump’s dangerous orbit, this episode is a blistering call to arms. The fight starts in Texas, but it ends with the survival of American democracy. Subscribe, share, and stay vigilant.

"The idea should be very clear: Trump is going after the media to suppress coverage of the cover-up."

The media is becoming complicit in the greatest cover-up in the history of American politics. The Epstein story isn't going away, no matter how hard Trump tries to make it disappear. But now that effort by Trump is pushing our media into a dark place that it may never return from. If American media outlets don't stand up – and make no mistake, so far they aren't – the loss to our Democracy could be immeasurable.

Rick explains why in this episode of The Enemies List.

Rick's back to take your questions. You won't be surprised to learn that we got a ton of questions about the Epstein files. In fact, this story is becoming so primary, so massive, that even if a question isn't about the Epstein files, it's still about the Epstein files.

Example? William asks about the Supreme Court's shift toward authoritarianism. That might not sound like a question regarding Trump's involvement with Epstein, but let's say he's on that list (he is). Who is going to hold him accountable? Not SCOTUS.

Listen for all that and more.

Elon Musk jumping into the third-party game? Buckle up. Building a party from scratch is a brutal, Kafkaesque nightmare, and the duopoly hates it. Yeah, he’s got money—big money—but money alone won’t save him from the legal jungle and political vultures circling.

If Musk does this right, it could seriously screw up the GOP and maybe mess with the Dems too. If he does it wrong? Well, he’ll just flush a fortune down the drain with a bunch of clowns running around.

Voters don’t vote on policy — they vote on emotion. Republicans run on pure id, the constant, persistent craving for lizard-brain emotions that keep them engaged and enraged enough to act. And Democrats? Well...they lecture.

One side is a fireworks display, and the other...a PowerPoint presentation.

In this week's Enemies List Q&A, Rick answers your questions, sorts out what's broken in the Democratic party, & hammers out how to fix it.

In this week’s Enemies List, Rick Wilson takes no prisoners as he tears into Kristi Noem—MAGA’s “Ice Barbie” and Trump’s loyal mouthpiece. From her shameful 72-hour delay in sending FEMA aid during the Texas floods to her relentless lies defending ICE’s brutal immigration raids, Noem embodies the cruelty and corruption at the heart of this administration. Rick exposes how she’s transformed from a conservative politician into a shameless propagandist willing to say and do anything to stay in Trump’s good graces—even if it means lying about the deaths of hundreds and ignoring real disaster relief.Noem’s obsession with deporting immigrants, creating militarized detention centers, and spinning false narratives about “criminals” is part of a broader, deadly agenda that prioritizes political theater over people’s lives. Rick also highlights how the media continues to fall for her scripted performances, failing to hold her accountable for the damage she causes. After tearing into Noem, Rick shines a light on Eldridge Colby, a shadowy Pentagon figure with dangerous pro-Russian leanings who’s been sabotaging U.S. defense efforts and embarrassing the administration. Colby represents the corrupt, unaccountable “derp state” actors undermining American values from within.Join Rick & take a look at the lies, cruelty, and chaos driving the Trump administration’s worst policies—and why it’s vital to call out the people behind them.
