In Episode 8 of The Bullpen, the headlines are loud, but Sammy “The Bull” Gravano knows it’s never just what you see on the surface. From Trump federalizing D.C.’s police and calling the city a “criminal wasteland,” to protests claiming the crackdown is political theater, The Bull breaks down the chaos the mainstream won’t touch. Meanwhile, crime numbers shift depending on who’s reporting, whistleblowers expose falsified stats, and the streets themselves tell a different story.Sammy peels back the layers on power plays, public outrage, and the truth behind the numbers. Is this about fixing problems—or flexing authority? Are the protests about politics—or reality? The Bullpen isn’t just news. It’s the truth beneath the headlines, the fight behind the curtain, and the call to read between the lines and stay awake.

This is The Bullpen.
