Is California finally turning on the political establishment? Is Europe unraveling in real time? And what happens when ideology collides with science? In this explosive episode of The Weekly Rundown, Jillian Michaels breaks down the biggest stories shaking America and the world. CALIFORNIA'S POLITICAL EARTHQUAKE The California primary results are in—and the establishment is officially on notice. Jillian reacts to Karen Bass' controversial election night appearance as Spencer Pratt surges in the Los Angeles mayoral race. Then the team breaks down the battle for governor as Steve Hilton gains momentum against Xavier Becerra, examining the policies driving crime, homelessness, economic decline, and the continued exodus of California families. Is California on the verge of a political realignment—or headed for even deeper trouble? THE PUBERTY BLOCKER DEBATE: THE SCIENCE THEY DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT After viral clips from Dave Rubins Jubilee debate and dangerous laims from woke commentator Sam Seder, Jillian delivers a data-driven takedown of the mainstream narrative surrounding puberty blockers and gender-affirming care for minors. Using findings from the landmark Cass Review, leaked WPATH files, international medical policy changes, and emerging research on youth gender medicine, she dismantles claims about gender affirming care being a “pause button, and highlights growing concerns surrounding bone density, fertility, sexual function, long-term health outcomes, and more. Plus, why have multiple European countries reversed course—and why are so many activists refusing to acknowledge the evidence? IRAN ESCALATES As breaking news unfolds during the show, reports emerge of an Iranian missile and drone attack targeting Kuwait's international airport. What does this mean for the Middle East? Is this an isolated event—or the beginning of something much bigger? PARIS BURNS & THE WESTERN IDENTITY CRISIS Following PSG's championship victory, Paris erupts into riots, mass arrests, injuries, and destruction. Jillian examines the growing intersection of immigration, assimilation, lawlessness, political extremism, and cultural fragmentation that many believe is transforming cities across Europe. Is Paris a warning—or a preview? THE UK STORY THAT LEFT EVERYONE STUNNED The team reacts to disturbing bodycam footage involving college student Henry Nowak, who was allegedly treated as a suspect after being stabbed multiple times when accusations of racism entered the situation. The case raises difficult questions about policing, justice, race, political pressure, and whether governments have become afraid to apply the law equally. HOPE IN THE DARKNESS To close the week, Jillian highlights stories that remind us humanity is capable of far more than division and chaos—from a moving military homecoming to breakthroughs in diabetes treatment, AI innovations reducing animal cruelty, major conservation victories, and record-breaking technological advances. Because while the headlines often focus on what's broken, there are still reasons to believe in what's possible.

California is at a breaking point. Newsom’s corruption, crime, homelessness, immigration, skyrocketing taxes, the insurance crisis, devastating wildfires, failing infrastructure, and a growing exodus of residents have many Californians asking the same question: How did the Golden State get here? Jillian Michaels sits down with Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco, one of the leading candidates in the 2026 California Governor's race, to discuss the policies he says have pushed California into decline—and his plan to reverse course. The conversation dives into Bianco's critiques of fellow gubernatorial candidates Xavier Becerra, Katie Porter, and Tom Steyer, tackling issues ranging from healthcare for undocumented immigrants and gender policy to immigration enforcement, homelessness spending, and government accountability. Sheriff Bianco pulls no punches as he takes on Governor Gavin Newsom's legacy, California's homelessness crisis, sanctuary state policies, Proposition 36, public safety, immigration, wildfire prevention, the California insurance collapse, rising crime rates, and the state's controversial tax policies—including his proposal to eliminate California's state income tax. Jillian and Sheriff Bianco examine why so many residents and businesses are leaving California, whether the state's one-party political system is driving institutional failure, and what it would take to restore affordability, public safety, and opportunity for Californians across the political spectrum. And, Bianco weighs in on Spencer Pratt’s chance at winning Los Angeles’ Mayoral race. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Is this the moment the Global Elite officially declared war on America First? A secret, closed-door meeting in Toronto just blew the lid off a massive international chess match—and it involves former President Barack Obama, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, and a coordinated globalist network operating right on America's doorstep. When Mark Carney posted a video of a handshake with Obama, the internet absolutely exploded. While the mainstream media calls it a routine speaking engagement, the truth is far more explosive. This wasn't a friendly visit; it was a high-level "war council" packed with global elites, Clinton-Obama operatives, and international billionaires strategizing on how to crush the populist wave sweeping the West. The epicenter of this gathering? A closed-press gala hosted by Canada 2020—the powerful progressive think tank acting as the literal spine of the Canadian Liberal establishment—paired with the Global Progress Action Summit, co-hosted alongside Washington's influential Center for American Progress (CAP) Action Fund. Backed by the Open Society Institute funding architecture and heavily staffed with World Economic Forum (WEF) alumni, this massive apparatus is no longer operating in the shadows. In this deep-dive episode, we pull back the curtain on the multi-billion-dollar trade rift, escalating 50% tariffs, and Donald Trump’s shocking suggestion that Canada become the 51st state. Inside this episode, we break down: The Handshake Scandal: Why the American Right is demanding arrests over Logan Act violations while the Left claims "nothing to see here." The Institutional Blueprint: How Canada 2020 and the Center for American Progress convened a "war council with catering," drawing in heads of state, top-tier 2028 U.S. presidential prospects, and intelligence alumni. The Ultimate Showdown: How Prime Minister Mark Carney—a Goldman Sachs alumnus, Bilderberg Group member, and WEF board member—is leveraging transnational networks to lead the international resistance against Trump. The July 1st CUSMCA Deadline: The ticking economic time bomb that could strip tariff exemptions from 90% of Canadian exports and send shockwaves through American supply chains. The Hidden Strategy: The globalist ecosystem's plan of exhaustion, replication, and entrapment designed to bypass domestic voter mandates and outlast the nationalist movement. CHAPTERS 00:00 - Intro 01:12 - A Silent Coup? 02:08 - The 4 Layers of Trump's Assault on Canada 04:50 - The Ronald Reagan Ad That Broke Negotiations 06:04 - Mark Carney / Ultimate Globalist 07:51 - Carney’s Davos Speech: An Iron Curtain for the West 09:42 - The Blackout Gala 11:44 - The Globalist War Council Exposed 14:41 - The CUSMCA Ticking Time Bomb 16:56 - Logan Act Violations & Political Double Standards 22:03 - Washington’s Secret Backchannel Punishment 23:47 - The Global Elite’s Hidden Interdependence Trap 26:44 - The 3-Step Strategy to Destroy America First 29:27 - Who Truly Holds the Power?

What if your thoughts, your outrage, and your deepest anxieties aren't actually yours? What if everything you think you know about reading people, decoding the news, and understanding your own mind is the result of deliberate psychological engineering? This week, Jillian sits down with Chase Hughes - former Navy intelligence specialist, Harvard and Oxford-trained neuroscientist, and the world's leading expert in behavioral profiling and human influence - for a chilling look at the hidden architecture of control and the most effective ways to exit the matrix and level up your life. Chase breaks down the exact mechanics of modern psyops, how mass narratives are manufactured in real time, and the weaponized techniques used by media and institutions to hijack your attention, trigger constant outrage, and keep you fighting your neighbor instead of looking at the forces pulling the strings. He exposes how the "four lenses" framework and the cultural obsession with "leveling the playing field" is quietly destroying your productivity, sabotaging your relationships, and draining your mental bandwidth - and reveals the hidden playbook used by the most psychologically evolved people on earth to stay immune. Then, the conversation takes a dark, unforgettable turn. Chase dives deep into the neuroscience of psychopathy, the terrifying reality of what creates truly evil people, and an unvarnished analysis of the Epstein phenomenon. But out of the darkness comes a radical solution. Traversing neuroscience and ancient texts that converge on the exact same truth, Chase explains the profound cost of the "neuroscience of separation." Discover why the people around you are secretly suffering in the exact same way you are, and how dissolving this manufactured illusion is the single most powerful weapon you have to reclaim your health, protect your happiness, and finally see reality clearly. Stop being a pawn in someone else's psychological warfare. Tune in to learn how to spot the manipulation and take back your mind in real time.
