President Donald Trump announced Thursday that he will be meeting with Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor of the Atlantic who most recently broke the now-infamous "Signalgate" story.
Trump asserted that Goldberg had previously published "fictional stories" about the president and his administration. Despite this, Trump will be interviewed by Goldberg and other journalists from the outlet for a story entitled "The Most Consequential President of this Century."
'I am doing this interview out of curiosity, and as a competition with myself, just to see if it's possible for The Atlantic to be "truthful.'''
"Later today I will be meeting with, of all people, Jeffrey Goldberg, the Editor of The Atlantic, and the person responsible for many fictional stories about me, including the made-up HOAX on 'Suckers and Losers' and, SignalGate, something he was somewhat more 'successful' with," Trump wrote on Truth Social.
One "hoax" Trump is referring to includes Goldberg's article from September 2020 that claimed the president called Americans who died in combat "suckers" and "losers." The article relies on anonymous sources who alleged that Trump talked down on fallen soldiers during a 2018 trip to France, which was heavily refuted by over a dozen on-the-record sources, including several administration officials.
"Jeffrey is bringing with him Michael Scherer and Ashley Parker, not exactly pro-Trump writers, either, to put it mildly!" Trump added. "The story they are writing, they have told my representatives, will be entitled, 'The Most Consequential President of this Century."
Although Goldberg's journalistic career has not always been flattering to the president, Trump said he was open to the interview for personal reasons.
"I am doing this interview out of curiosity, and as a competition with myself, just to see if it's possible for The Atlantic to be 'truthful.' Are they capable of writing a fair story on 'TRUMP'? The way I look at it, what can be so bad – I WON!"

‘They’re crooks’: 'The Young Turks' founder admits conservatives were right about the Deep State
Cenk Uygur, founder of “The Young Turks,” has long found himself at odds with those on the right. However, unlike most on the left, Uygur’s attention has shifted from the right to the establishment.
“News has not been news for so long. People have forgotten. They’re, like, demanding propaganda, and they’re like, ‘Why won’t you say that Obama is a saint?’
"And I’m like, ‘But we’re on the left; we don’t want him drilling in the Gulf,’” Uygur tells James Poulos on “Zero Hour.”
“On what planet should I not criticize that?” he asks, adding, “Are we supposed to morph our policies around these politicians and their donors?”
While Uygur doesn’t believe that right-wing media is any better than the left-wing media, it’s the mainstream media he takes real issue with.
“Most of all, mainstream media is the ones that claim to be objective. And I think they’re the least objective, the least truthful. Not because their facts are wrong, but because their framing is so absurd — that politicians aren’t crooks. They’re crooks. That donor money doesn’t affect politicians? You’ve got to be mental to think it doesn’t affect politicians,” he explains.
“So the Democratic Party, unfortunately, has gone so pro-corporate,” he continues.
“They’re so blinded by their own bubble, James. That’s the most important thing. Everybody’s in their bubble, and in their bubble they’re 100% right.”
This is what Uygur believes led to the results of the 2024 election.
“2024 to me was the most watershed moment for so many reasons, because the establishment finally realized the country hates them,” he adds.

Ben Shapiro tells Glenn Beck the EXACT moment the legacy media died
It goes without saying that the era of mainstream media is over. The outlets that once were trusted news sources are now dismissed as relics of a dead system.
It didn’t have to be this way. Mainstream outlets earned the moniker of "legacy media." They dug their own grave with unapologetic propaganda, gatekeeping, and centralized control.
The question is: What was the final nail in the mainstream media’s coffin?
Ben Shapiro, co-founder and editor emeritus of the Daily Wire, answered this question on an episode of “The Glenn Beck Podcast.”
Shapiro recalls 2004’s “Rathergate,” when CBS News’ Dan Rather aired fake memos questioning President George W. Bush’s National Guard service.
When that happened, “people on our side were like, ‘ah, the mainstream media is dead,”’ he says, but they were wrong because the corporate media “spent the next nearly 20 years proving they certainly were not dead.”
“They could define narratives, and they could lie, and they could really define how Americans thought on a wide variety of issues ranging from BLM to COVID to Russiagate,” Shapiro tells Glenn.
The actual death of the mainstream media, he contends, happened just last year.
“I think 2024 was the definitive nail in the coffin — maybe the last nail in the coffin for the legacy media,” he says.
Ironically, it was Sleepy Joe who shot the final arrow.
“Joe Biden effing that debate with Trump was the single most important political moment probably of our lifetimes, because it wasn't just that it forced him out of the race. What it did is it exposed the entire legacy media infrastructure — all of them, all at once,” Shapiro explains.
“Literally weeks before that debate, they were saying it was a cheap fake to show tape of him on stage with Obama guiding him off stage because he didn't know where the hell he was, right? So they were maintaining that narrative consistently, and then Joe Biden was stupid enough to get on that debate stage.”
Shapiro recalls how almost immediately after the debate began, the camera panned to Biden, who looked as if he were “staring at the grim visage of death off screen with the goggly eyes.”
“You were like, ‘oh my God, death is going to take him in the middle of this. He can actually see the Grim Reaper with the scythe standing off to the side,’” he jokes, comparing the spectacle to an “episode of 'The Twilight Zone.'”
“I think in that moment, the legacy media died.”
While the mainstream media attempted to feign shock at Biden’s performance, the secret was out: “They were in the know for years.”
“These people lie, and they lie with an agenda,” says Shapiro.
And that’s something the American people just won’t tolerate.

Mark Levin BLASTS '60 Minutes of Shame's' Lesley Stahl for pro-Hamas questioning
Once upon a time, CBS News’ “60 Minutes” was serious television. Mark Levin recalls how hosts used to track down hoodlums and crooks with cameras in their briefcases. The in-depth reporting and interviews were well worth a watch.
Fast-forward to today, and it’s a different story.
Thanks to hosts like "the clown" Lesley Stahl and her hardcore leftist bias, gone are the days of tough, gritty reporting. Now, we get “60 Minutes” episodes of freed Hamas hostages being subjected to the American media’s anti-Israel, anti-Trump bias.
On the show’s latest episode, Stahl interviewed Yarden Bibas and Keith Siegel, two recently freed hostages, who suffered starvation, severe psychological torment, and physical violence in Gaza. To say Stahl’s questioning was tone-deaf is an understatement.
When Siegel shared that he had been starved by his Hamas captors, Stahl responded with, “Do you think they starved you or they just didn’t have food?”
“There’s story after story after story of tons and tons of food being brought into Gaza and stolen by Hamas,” Levin rails. “Hamas steals it to feed themselves, and what they have left over, they sell to the other Palestinians in order to fund their war machine.”
Even though “eyewitnesses have reported this,” it didn’t stop Stahl from perpetuating mainstream media pro-Hamas lies.
In her conversation with Yarden Bibas, whose wife and two sons were taken hostage and brutally murdered by Hamas, Stahl asked what he would like to say to President Trump. When Bibas responded with, “Please stop this war and help bring all of the hostages back,” Stahl retorted, “And you think he can help?”
“I know he can help. I am here because of Trump. I’m here only because of him,” Bibas doubled down.
In the same episode, Stahl stated that “50,000 Gazans have been killed” since the October 7 attacks.
“Where did she get those numbers from?” Levin asks. “She got those numbers from Hamas! ... I've had statisticians on my radio show, on my Fox show, who've said that's not true; it's an absolute impossibility.”
“She knows it's not true; she knows she got the numbers from Hamas, but she uses them anyway,” he sighs.
To add insult to injury, Stahl also blamed Israel for the continuation of the war, claiming, “Netanyahu resumed the bombing of Gaza, breaking a fragile ceasefire that was exceedingly popular with Israelis.”
“There were conditions to the first phase” of the ceasefire deal, Levin explains, noting that it was Hamas who first violated the agreement.
“You're dealing with monsters; you're dealing with subhumans; you're dealing with terrorists, for crying out loud! What is with the American media? What is with [Lesley Stahl]?” he asks in disbelief.
“‘60 Minutes’ isn't worth one minute of your time.”

Two things that WILL happen if RFK Jr. successfully bans Big Pharma TV ads
According to numerous reports, HHS secretary RFK Jr. is planning to push for the banning of Big Pharma television advertisements. The United States is one of the only countries that permits direct-to-consumer pharmaceutical advertising, and Kennedy has long condemned it.
If the reports are true and he’s successful at banning pharmaceutical advertising on TV, it would spark “a massive societal earthquake,” says Liz Wheeler.
Two things are going to happen, she says.
1. Corporate media sinks
“Mainstream media is just a fake business,” says Liz. “It is artificially propped up by massive ad dollars from Big Pharma ads, not because of the return on investment.”
“Big Pharma buys so many TV ads” for the sheer purpose of “[preventing] reporting on the corruption of Big Pharma.”
But if pharma companies are banned from buying those ads and those dollars disappear, so do the networks.
“You will watch before your very eyes as highly paid mainstream media anchors are fired. Networks are going to panic; some of them are even going to shut down as paychecks aren't paid to staff,” says Liz.
2. We finally get honest reporting
“When the gravy train of Big Pharma ad dollars to TV networks stops, we will suddenly see reporting on the corruption of Big Pharma, of these drugs that don't do what they claim that they do, on vaccines, and even the harm that comes from some vaccines,” Liz predicts.
“We'll see reporting on medical associations like the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American Medical Association and government regulation agencies like the CDC and the FDA,” she continues. “You're going to see reporting that was previously prohibited because the ad money that pharma paid these networks was really just a payoff for the networks’ silence.”
“It was a money laundering scheme all along to keep reporters silent about the abuses coming out of pharma.”
