Buckle up folks—this episode of The Final Word is giving "plot twist" energy. We dive into the disturbing assault of Virginia City Councilman Lee Vogler (spoiler: not political, just plain awful), then take a stroll down Conspiracy Lane as Senate Democrats dust off an ancient lawbook trying to pry open Epstein’s mystery vault. Ghislaine Maxwell wants to testify before Congress... with a list of demands. Girl, you are not Beyoncé on tour. Meanwhile, the U.K. says it’ll officially recognize a Palestinian state unless Israel locks in a ceasefire and a peace plan. Shoutout to diplomatic ultimatums!
And back in Texas—where maps apparently come with built-in bias—Republicans are pitching a new congressional layout that would hand them five extra seats.
We also shine a harsh spotlight on ICE's treatment of detained women, with disturbing allegations of abuse and neglect that demand accountability. If you thought things couldn’t get more outrageous, think again.
Plus, we’ve got your emails, your rants, and all the dizzying drama we can cram into one mic. Pour a drink, grab your pearls—and let’s get into this madness.
