The Tara Show

In this episode, we cover a staggering range of issues—from the Epstein document saga and Nancy Mace’s emotional reaction to victims’ testimony, to major national security threats posed by the Sinaloa cartel and China’s role in the chemical opioid war. First, we break down the ongoing controversy over Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein. Mike Johnson defends Trump, clarifying that the president never called Epstein’s crimes a hoax, but has been frustrated with media misrepresentation and Democrats weaponizing the issue for political purposes. Despite promises of massive document releases, most of the Epstein files have been recycled content, creating a self-inflicted public relations problem. Next, South Carolina gubernatorial candidate Nancy Mace left an Epstein victims’ hearing visibly shaken, later revealing she suffers from clithrophobia, an intense fear of being trapped. Her candid explanation highlights the emotional toll these hearings take—not just on survivors, but on those with personal trauma historie
