In short

A political commentary episode criticizing Donald Trump’s UK state visit as taxpayer-funded pageantry and linking it to alleged corruption and legal controversies, especially around the Epstein files, tariffs/inflation claims, and vaccine policy disputes.

Guest backgrounds

No named guests appear in the provided transcript; it’s presented as a host-driven monologue with referenced clips from UK and US media and congressional hearings.

Key claims

Trump is using the Windsor ceremony for self-promotion; the UK and US taxpayers are funding it. The FBI director (Kash Patel) allegedly evaded whether Trump’s name appears in Epstein files/client lists. Trump’s administration allegedly lacked data/science for vaccine schedule changes. Trump’s economic advisors claim Supreme Court outcomes and deny inflation.

Notable examples

Windsor Castle guard-of-honor flyover; House hearings questioning “yes or no” on Epstein files; Navarro’s “no inflation” and “Supreme Court in our pocket” remarks; CDC officials saying guidance was based on tweets and lacked supporting data.

2:21Ben Meiselas:Donald Trump continues to get booed in Windsor on his trip to the United Kingdom. He is making King Charles at the UK taxpayer expense roll out the red carpet for him and do all the pomp and circumstance to make Donald Trump feel good. Now we see what this trip to the UK is really about. It's Donald Trump and Melania going there on the UK taxpayer dime and the United States taxpayer dime as Trump is destroying the United States economy and destroying our alliances just to try to make himself feel good as he threatens our allies to make King Charles do this at Windsor Castle. And then they kind of hide Donald Trump away from where the people are by moving him more into the countryside where the castle is.

3:09Ben Meiselas:So Donald Trump has the UK Royal Air Force Red Hours performing a flyover past him. I mean, this whole thing is just completely humiliating, both for UK citizens, United States citizens. Here, watch this clip.

3:44Ben Meiselas:now while all of that was going on there were hearings taking place in the house of representatives where Donald Trump's FBI director refused to give a direct answer whether he told the attorney general that Trump's name is all over the Epstein files. Here, play this clip. Remembering your oath to tell the truth, did you ever tell Donald Trump his name is in the files? I have never spoken to President Trump about the Epstein files. Did you ever tell the attorney general that Donald Trump's name is in the Epstein files? The attorney general and I have had numerous discussions about the entirety of the Epstein files and the reviews conducted by our team.

4:21Did you tell the attorney general that Donald Trump's name is in the Epstein files? And we have released where President Trump's name is in the simple question. Did you tell the attorney general that the president's name is in the Epstein files during many conversations that the attorney general and I have had on the matter of Epstein, we have reviewed. The question is simple. Who can tell the attorney general that Donald Trump's name is in the Epstein files? Yes or no? Why don't you try spelling it out? Yes or no. Use the alphabet. Yes or no? No, ABC, EF. Director, it sounds like you don't want to tell us.

4:53Did you tell the attorney general that Donald Trump's name was in the Epstein files? Why don't you try serving your constituency by focusing on reducing violent crime in this country and the number of pedophiles that are legally covered in sanctuary cities in California? I'll work with you on that. Regular order, Mr. Chairman. I'm the lawless gentleman from California. Did you tell the attorney general that Donald Trump's name is in the Epstein files? The question has been asked and answered. You've not answered it. And we will take your evasiveness as a consciousness of guilt. Director.

5:23Ben Meiselas:Going back to Windsor Castle, you can see what Donald Trump really wanted to do here. And again, with this UK trip was all about Donald Trump inspecting the guard of honor with King Charles III during an arrival ceremony at Windsor Castle. I don't know, Donald, how about you make good on the promises you made to Americans like that you were going to solve inflation on day one that you were going to stop the war in Ukraine and stop the atrocities being committed on Gaza on day one. Nope, actually, you just want to do this. You think this is like Disneyland for you. Here, play this clip.

6:11Ben Meiselas:Meanwhile, let's take a look at what the people in the United Kingdom are thinking. Shout out to our friends over at LBC who just do an incredible job covering all this. Here, play this clip. I don't want to be here. I feel like I have to be here because Keir Starmer's made a massive mistake in letting a convicted felon, they actually convicted him in his country, and we're letting him come on British soil. And it's a total disgrace. It's disgusting. I think it's an absolute waste of taxpayer money. Already millions of pounds were spent to keep him safe last time. And it's really just for show.

6:44I mean, this is just because he's a royals watcher and they're just going to, you know, his wife's going to go see the doll museum and the scouts. I mean, there's a lot of emphasis, of course, that the state visit is going to bring about a trade deal. I think it's really unclear exactly what our politicians and our monarchy intend to do with this visit, if there's some diplomatic ideas behind it. But I don't think it's sending a great message. He changes his mind as often as he changes his diaper. As far as I can see, he could say what a wonderful visit he's had. And then two minutes later, he's going to say something else.

7:17Neville Chamberlain tried to appease Hitler. Unless, you know, history showed how that worked out. Appeasement is not the answer. There will not be peace in that time while Trump is the president of America.

7:27Ben Meiselas:Here's how they were reporting it on CNN. Donald Trump in his little gold carriage driving around in a little gold carriage. I mean, just think about just over the past, what, week alone? They destroyed the Rose Garden in the United States, and they call it now Club Rose Garden, where the elite Republican cabal that's involved in covering up a child sex trafficking pedo ring get to eat lavish meals with top-of-the-line entertainment being paid for by the taxpayers where our Rose Garden used to be. Donald Trump was posting images of flying over Club Cipriani's in Manhattan, where it costs$9 ,000 to spend three days there.

8:09Ben Meiselas:And it's like a member only club where it's thousands of dollars a month. And now he's in a gold carriage. I'm sure the farmers in America who voted for him were about to go bankrupt unless they get bailed out soon. I'm sure the people who were late on their mortgage and can't afford to pay their rent right now and can't afford groceries are loving Donald Trump's in a golden carriage, everybody? Here, play this clip. In any event, the main objective is pageantry. Apparently, the president told the pool press who are flying with him overnight yesterday, enjoy yourselves, okay? He said he was really, really, really looking forward to this.

8:47He said it's going to be a beautiful event. Now you can hear the British national anthem playing as the carriages continue to move towards eventually Windsor Castle. And then they're going to have a lunch and then there's going to be more pageantry. The president and the first lady will lay a wreath on the tomb of Queen Elizabeth II, who the president really, really appreciated. He met her twice here, won an official state visit, which was at Buckingham Palace, and then a later visit here to Windsor Castle. This is the first time there's been this kind of major state visit for an American president at Windsor Castle.

9:26Usually they're in London at Buckingham Palace and, you know, they go up the mall. But certainly Windsor Village has been decked out with the Stars and Stripes and the Union Jack. And so as much pageantry as they can muster without the usual people involved is happening right now.

9:44Ben Meiselas:Then he has one of his top economic advisors, Peter Navarro, go on TV and he's asked, so can you walk us through what happens if the Supreme Court rules against you on the tariffs? And he goes, they're not going to rule against us. Basically, we've got the Supreme Court in our pocket. Here, play this clip. Then Peter Navarro says, there's no inflation. It's done. We solved it. Trump should be in his golden carriage because we're in a golden age. We resolved inflation and all Americans are experiencing a golden age right now. Here play this clip. What's your take on this IEPA case in terms of the courts trying to stop President Trump?

10:25Can you walk us through what could be a backup plan, Peter, in terms of whether or not these court cases go against the president? What is the backup? up. The backup plan is the minority dissent in that whole decision, Maria. It was a very political decision. As you well know, courts around America are needlessly politicized, making partisan decisions. The seven judges who ruled against the Trump administration, six of them were Democrats. One of them was a H.W. Bush rhino who was a free trader. The four people who dissented, That was a beautiful dissent led by a judge named Toronto. And it's a roadmap, as I've written about, for the Supreme Court to deal with the key issues, whether we have a national emergency, whether tariffs can be used for the regulation of imports, whether we're in a permanent situation with the tariffs, which we're clearly or not.

11:24So the backup plan is the Supreme Court basically ruling in our favor.

You know who's experiencing a golden age? Donald Trump and his family are making billions of dollars. One of the Trump family ventures got billions of dollars from the United Arab Emirates. Then the United Arab Emirates got the United States semiconductor top secret technology. And they go, oh, that's not a quid pro quo.

13:32Ben Meiselas:It seems that every other day, some Trump family member is bringing some company public that they now have a stake in. Yeah, they are enriching themselves off of the American people by using the Oval Office and the power of the United States to reduce the power of the United States and increase the wealth of the Trump family while American people can't afford rent, while housing is less affordable. And while Donald Trump goes out there and mocks the idea of low income housing, just going out mocking low income housing. How dare you? How dare you? One of the things you purportedly ran on was housing.

14:10Ben Meiselas:Now housing is less affordable than it's ever been in the history of the United States of America. Back to those Epstein hearings taking place in the House of Representatives. Congresswoman Lofgren has some questions for Patel. Play this clip. I said it wasn't. So you're saying that none of this happened? No, I'm saying it was inaccurate. Okay. How many times did President Trump's appear in the Epstein files? More than 100? More than 1 ,000? No. And what we've been able to release is what we've been legally able to release. And that is - No, that's not the question. I asked you, how many times did the president's name appear?

14:44I don't know. It's your testimony. You do not know that answer.

14:48Ben Meiselas:A number of times? No. No. Even Donald Trump's own former CDC director, Monterey, former CDC director Dr. Monterey, who Trump fired, had some words about the Trump regime and RFK Jr. about how they did not have any data or science to point to in trying to get rid of vaccines for children. And they admitted as such. And she goes, I was just trying to get him the science and data. I'm not going to sign off on ripping away vaccines from children and killing children just cause whatevs. I'm not just going to do it for whatevs. I'm a scientist. Here, play this clip. Secretary Kennedy told the Finance Committee that he did not ask you to pre-approve, but that you're biased against the new ACIP, and he just asked you to keep an open mind.

15:36Did he cite any data or science as relates to the potential ACIP recommendations to persuade you to support them? He did not have any data or science to point to. As a matter of fact, we got into an exchange where I had suggested that I would be open to changing childhood vaccine schedules if the evidence or science were supportive. And he responded that there was no science or evidence associated with the childhood vaccine schedule. And he elaborated that CDC had never collected the science or the data to make it available related to the safety and efforts. To be clear, he said there was not science or data, but that you still expected you to change the schedule.

16:24Correct. Okay. Dr.

16:26Ben Meiselas:Auri. Dr. Menara's. Then you had the former chief medical officer of the CDC, Dr. Deborah Auri. She testifies that she did not know about the decision by the health department to change the vaccine recommendations until she read about it on a tweet, on a tweet, on a social media post. Play this clip. It's unthinkable to me that the chief medical officer at CDC was left in the dark and about such a consequential public health decision that affected real people. um dr howry how was this change in guidance supported by scientific evidence we have not seen the data yet in fact um after the tweet came out we asked for a written memo from hhs because i couldn't implement guidance off of a tweet um the written memo didn't say the same as the video there was a difference between healthy versus all you can't you can't provide guidance off of a tweet I didn't think that was prudent.

17:26And then we did ask for the data to back it up and we have not received the data to date.

17:31Ben Meiselas:And then, of course, you have more deranged posts by Donald Trump here. Why was the wonderful turning point under investigation by deranged Jack Smith and the corrupt, incompetent Biden administration? They tried to force Charlie and many other people and movements out of business. They weaponized the Justice Department against Sleepy Joe Biden's political opponents. So now Trump and Pam Bondi and Kash Patel, as part of their sex trafficking pedo cover up ring, the other thing they do is say, if we don't like your speech, it's hate speech and we don't care about the First Amendment. We're going after you.

18:06Ben Meiselas:That's literally what Attorney General Pam Bondi said, that if they don't like what you say, they deem it hate speech and it's a crime and the DOJ will go after thoughts and speech that's critical of the Trump regime. One of the things that should be noted, though, is that Turning Points was involved in the January 6th insurrection. They were helping bring buses there. So in addition to Charlie Kirk and Turning Points making anti-black, anti-gay, anti-LGBTQ comments, calling for Biden to be executed, just among other things, they were also involved in, I think, helping transport people. So to the extent their name came up in anything, it may have been in that context.

18:47Ben Meiselas:Oh, what? We have to gloss over the insurrection now. What private businesses have to print out pro Charlie Kirk memorandum. You have to print out regime photos of Donald Trump while he drapes his face over buildings in Washington, D.C. As long as the Midas Touch Network exists, as long as I have this microphone in my hand, they can try to rip it from me. We are going to make sure we speak the truth always. Let me just remind you right here. Finally, of what else is going on in that Epstein hearing, here is what Congress member Liu had to say, that FBI Director Cash Patel refuses to give a direct answer whether Trump is on the Epstein list.

19:24Ben Meiselas:Play the clip. That's literally not how it works. I'm going to move on now and talk about Epstein's client list. You confirmed that exists. Attorney General Pambadi confirmed earlier this year that exists. I just want to ask you a simple question. Is Prince Andrew on Epstein's client list? The material related to Prince Andrew has been made public. Is Prince Andrew on the client list? We have released the index of names that were in Jeffrey Epstein's. Is Donald Trump on Epstein's client list? The index has been released and the index will speak for itself. So I'm just going to say, America, there's a huge red flag.

19:57The FBI director could not answer whether Donald Trump was on Epstein's client list. Gentleman's time has expired.
