UNBIASED Politics

In today's episode, we're breaking down the latest 2026 midterm election results, starting with the Mississippi Senate race. We'll explain the outstanding absentee and affidavit ballots, the deadlines election officials are working with, and the legal disputes surrounding the vote count. Then we'll head to Alaska, where two candidates are separated by a narrow margin, and ranked-choice voting could affect the final outcome. We'll also cover the latest results in the Kansas governor's race, California's billionaire tax ballot measure, and what happens next as Democrats prepare to take control of Congress in January. PLUS, President Donald Trump has named Stephen Miller as his new White House chief of staff, replacing Susie Wiles following Republicans' midterm losses. We're covering what we know about the leadership change, the recent resignations of senior Justice Department officials, and the congressional investigations that could be coming. Then, Republican Congressman Thomas Massie is moving forward with an effort to impeach Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. We'll break down the eight articles of impeachment, the allegations involving the war with Iran, what it would take for the House to impeach Hegseth, and why impeachment doesn't automatically mean removal from office. And finally, NVIDIA has launched an independent investigation into whether its CEO, Jensen Huang, was targeted by a foreign intelligence operation following reports about his relationship with a woman suspected of having ties to Chinese intelligence. We're explaining who Alice Huang is, how NVIDIA's AI chips factor into U.S.-China relations, what Jensen Huang has publicly acknowledged, and what investigators are trying to determine. We'll finish with Quick Hitters covering Trump's 60 Minutes interview, Gavin Newsom's plans to commute California death sentences, developments at Cornell University, Joe Biden's health update, and the Justice Department's renewed investigation into the Supreme Court's Dobbs decision leak. All of that, plus Critical Thinking, on today's episode of UNBIASED Politics. 1. Midterms Updates: Uncalled Races, Upcoming Leadership Elections, What Congress Will Focus On, and More (0:58) 2.

Democrats have won control of BOTH the House and Senate in the 2026 midterm elections. So, what does that mean for President Donald Trump, Congress, and the next two years? In today's episode, we're breaking down the election results, including the seven Republican-held Senate seats Democrats flipped, victories in states like Texas, Kansas, and South Carolina, and the still-uncalled Senate races in Alaska and Mississippi. We explain Alaska's ranked-choice voting system, the results of the House elections, and the governor's races in states like Texas, Florida, Georgia, Ohio, and Tennessee. We're also covering the ballot measures voters decided on, including abortion rights amendments in Virginia, Missouri, Idaho, and Nevada; voter ID requirements; Florida's property tax amendment; and California's proposed billionaire tax. Plus, we'll go through some of the historical firsts from Tuesday's election. Then, we'll look at how President Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Democratic congressional leaders responded to the results before answering YOUR election questions. What can Democrats actually accomplish with control of Congress and a Republican president? How do presidential vetoes and the Senate filibuster work? Could another impeachment lead to Trump's removal from office? Does the economy perform better under divided government? How can news networks call elections when barely any votes have been counted? And what could these results mean for state laws and individual rights? We're covering all of that and more in this special 2026 midterm election recap, breaking down what happened, what's still unresolved, and what comes next. Episode Breakdown: 1. Senate Election Results (1:06) 2. House Election Results (12:37) 3. Gubernatorial Election Results (~19:32) 4. Ballot Measure Results (~23:10) 5.

A Learjet 60 carrying nine people crashed in Palm Beach County, Florida. We break down the ATC audio, what the crash video shows, and how aircraft icing can affect a plane. We also address two rumors spreading online: that the aircraft was shot down, and that what people saw falling from the sky wasn’t a plane at all, but a missile. Then, Democratic Rep. Haley Stevens makes a last-minute break from her own party and endorses Republican Mike Rogers over Democratic nominee Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan’s closely watched Senate race. We walk through the full timeline, the Rebellion PAC ad, the church appearance that never happened, her Sunday morning endorsement of Rogers, and her interview with CNN’s Anderson Cooper. Plus: a federal judge dismisses the DOJ’s lawsuit seeking to delay certification of Alaska’s Senate race involving Dan Sullivan and Daniel J. Sullivan; Sen. Chris Murphy is hospitalized after suffering a stroke; North Korea is accused of carrying out the $6.3 billion Binance hack; an ICE agent is indicted in Texas; Washington, D.C., and Virginia sue over President Trump’s proposed triumphal arch; and a judge opens an investigation into government representations about Trump’s D.C. golf-course renovation. Get the facts, without the spin. UNBIASED offers a clear, impartial recap of US news, including politics, elections, legal news, and more. Hosted by lawyer Jordan Berman, each episode provides a recap of current political events plus breakdowns of complex concepts—like constitutional rights, recent Supreme Court rulings, and new legislation—in an easy-to-understand way. No personal opinions, just the facts you need to stay informed on the daily news that matters. If you miss how journalism used to be, you're in the right place. 1. What We Know About the Learjet Crash in Florida (0:52) 2. Judge Dismisses DOJ's Lawsuit Asking Court to Step into Senate race in Alaska (12:52) 3.

Today, we’re breaking down the Pentagon’s new FORTRESS initiative and its reported plan for major U.S. military bases to eventually sustain essential operations for up to 90 days without relying on the civilian power grid, water, fuel or communications. Then, we’re covering the latest developments in Alaska’s Senate race after new reporting about efforts to recruit a second candidate named Dan Sullivan, including the ongoing DOJ criminal investigation, Alaska’s new state investigation and the federal lawsuit over election certification. We’re also unpacking the new House Judiciary Democrats’ report involving Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, including Beatrice Keul’s new rape allegation and what the evidence does (and doesn't) establish. And in Rumor Has It: Is Minnesota taxpayer money going to an organization that distributes “booty bumping kits”? And is the Trump administration really sending $500 Obamacare refund checks?

The Justice Department is suing over Alaska’s U.S. Senate race, but what is it really asking the court to do if Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan loses? We break down the two Dan Sullivans on the ballot, Alaska’s ranked-choice voting system, the fight over election certification, and the legal argument DOJ is making. Plus, we take a deeper look at the protests in France: how they started, how radical-left groups became involved, why Palestinian flags are showing up, and more. And Elon Musk acknowledges SpaceX restricted part of Ukraine’s Starlink access and accuses Ukraine of violating Starlink’s terms while questions remain about who restricted Starshield. 1.

President Trump and Vice President JD Vance have launched a new $25 million Fraud Whistleblower Incentive Program — or WHIP — that will pay people whose tips help lead to federal fraud charges. We break down who qualifies, what types of fraud are covered, when whistleblowers actually get paid, and why Trump’s description of a 1% commission and potentially million-dollar rewards doesn’t currently match the Justice Department’s written rules. Plus: an update in the Cornell Jane Doe lawsuit after Orazio Petito was dropped from the case because he was mistakenly identified as Chi Phi’s president at the time of the alleged assault, and a new dispute involving Cornell President Michael Kotlikoff. And in Quick Hitters: Vivek Ramaswamy’s controversial Amy Acton ad, the Pentagon’s Active Denial System “heat ray,” Ilhan Omar’s home raid, Meta’s $25 billion New Mexico penalty, Virginia Sen.

We start in Bend, Oregon, with the deadly shooting at Silver Rail Elementary School. We walk through the full police timeline, the teacher who tackled the shooter, the father who ultimately shot and killed him, and the legal questions surrounding how the 16-year-old got the shotgun. Then, we break down the growing tension between the U.S. and Ukraine over intelligence sharing and Starshield, plus President Trump’s decision to temporarily waive nearly all of the major new Russia sanctions and tariffs Congress passed last month.

This episode is a full update on the Cornell University Jane Doe case and the allegations involving members of the Chi Phi fraternity. We start with the six-page sworn statement Jane Doe gave Cornell investigators — the statement that was ultimately sent to the Tompkins County District Attorney before prosecutors declined to bring criminal charges. We walk through what Jane Doe said happened that night, what the DA actually reviewed, and why prosecutors originally concluded the evidence did not establish lack of consent under New York criminal law. Then, we go through the newly released text-message exchanges between Jane Doe, Matthew Ingalls and Jonathan Newell in the days and weeks after the alleged assault, including the messages both sides are likely to point to as the civil lawsuit and renewed criminal investigation move forward. We also break down Cornell’s Title IX findings against the accused students, who was found responsible for sexual assault, what punishments were imposed, and the critical difference between Cornell’s definition of incapacitation and New York’s criminal law. Plus: Winston Lee joins Gillio Lopes in seeking to remove New York Attorney General Letitia James from the criminal investigation; Cornell’s Faculty Senate debates a no-confidence resolution; Tompkins County lawmakers consider an independent audit of the District Attorney’s Office; Cornell brings in New York State Police investigators; new data reveals how Cornell has historically punished students found responsible for sexual assault; and one of the students expelled in the Jane Doe case reportedly transferred to Nova Southeastern University. This episode separates what Jane Doe alleges, what the accused men say, what Cornell’s internal investigation found, what prosecutors previously concluded, and what remains unresolved as the investigation continues. ⁠Watch⁠ this episode on YouTube.

Federal agents searched Rep. Ilhan Omar’s Washington, D.C., home as part of an ongoing criminal investigation — so what exactly are investigators looking for, why did a judge approve the search warrant, and what does any of this mean for Omar’s citizenship? Today, we break down the Ilhan Omar investigation from the beginning, including the questions surrounding her birth year and immigration records, the probable-cause standard behind the search, the Speech or Debate Clause, the timing just weeks before Election Day, and the separate financial and campaign-finance investigation involving D.C. U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro. Plus, Rumor Has It: Did Texas Senate candidate James Talarico check into a mental health facility during his recent absence from the campaign trail? We walk through the viral phone recording, the hospital’s denial, Talarico’s response and the time-stamped evidence placing him in Texas. Then, is new White House press secretary Katie Zacharia a licensed attorney? We break down her J.D., her reported California bar exam attempt, what California law says about holding yourself out as a lawyer without a license, and why the controversy has similarities to the questions surrounding Michigan Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed. Also in today’s Quick Hitters: President Trump reverses course on livestreaming Nidal Hasan’s execution, Kimberly Guilfoyle resigns as ambassador to Greece, new inflation numbers, Pope Leo’s lung-cancer diagnosis and recovery, the White House press-access lawsuit, Bank of America’s $1.2 billion settlement, MS NOW’s retraction of its Kash Patel Russia report, the OpenAI hidden-recording-device case, San Antonio’s lawsuit over a proposed ICE detention facility, New York City’s horse-drawn carriage proposal, the latest Amelia Earhart expedition, and more. 1.

Could the U.S. government legally livestream an execution? Today, we break down the planned firing-squad execution of Fort Hood shooter Nidal Hasan, why the Pentagon initially said it would be livestreamed, why President Trump now says a final decision hasn’t been made, and the constitutional and legal questions that could determine whether a public broadcast is allowed. We’re also breaking down the allegations surrounding U.S. Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle, including Eric Deters’ $100,000 credit-card claim, the messages at the center of the controversy, what federal bribery law requires, and reports that Trump and Secretary of State Marco Rubio are considering removing her. Plus: what we know about the ICE shooting of Oscar Belgal in New York City’s Marble Hill neighborhood, the competing accounts of what happened before an ICE agent opened fire, and the legal standard for using deadly force against a moving vehicle. Then, we explain Trump’s new Russian diesel deal with Vladimir Putin, why lawmakers are questioning whether it violates the 2022 ban on Russian energy imports, who could potentially challenge the deal in court, and whether additional Russian diesel could actually lower U.S. fuel prices. Also in today’s episode: Trump’s new White House press secretary Katie Zacharia, the latest on Christa Pike, the Ilhan Omar federal search, Border Patrol’s major meth seizure, the FCC dispute involving ABC News, and today’s Critical Thinking questions on government transparency, public executions and human dignity.

Today, we break down newly released Cornell Police interview videos, Jane Doe’s testimony during Cornell’s 2025 disciplinary hearing, allegations involving Chi Phi fraternity members, the growing campus protests, Sally Yates’s independent review of Cornell, threats against Jane Doe, and the legal challenge to New York Attorney General Letitia James’s role as special prosecutor. We also have a major update on Christa Pike after she survived Tennessee’s attempted lethal-injection execution. We explain what may have gone wrong with the IVs, why Pike suffered burns and blisters, what Tennessee’s execution protocol actually requires, and whether the state could legally attempt to execute her again. Plus: the Supreme Court begins its October 2026 Term with major cases involving AR-15 bans, immigration detention, third-country deportations, Arizona proof-of-citizenship requirements, religious freedom and climate litigation; what we actually know about the possible pneumonic plague case in Russia and how it compares to COVID; the latest Quick Hitters; and Rumor Has It fact-checks President Trump’s controversial comments about Los Angeles and San Diego.

Today, we’re catching up on the latest developments in the Cornell University case involving Jane Doe and members of the Chi Phi fraternity. New York Governor Kathy Hochul has removed the Tompkins County District Attorney’s Office from the criminal investigation and appointed Attorney General Letitia James as special prosecutor. We break down what that means, why Hochul made the decision, and the controversy surrounding comments James made about Jane Doe before she was appointed. We also go through newly released information about the original Cornell Police investigation and what prosecutors declined to review, the disciplinary punishments Cornell imposed on each of the seven men, newly obtained recorded phone calls between Jane Doe and fraternity members, additional text and Snapchat messages, and questions about evidence Cornell Police attempted to preserve. Plus, we explain Cornell’s potential legal liability, the significance of a drug-related incident at the Chi Phi house hours before the alleged assault, Cornell President Michael Kotlikoff’s response, the Faculty Senate’s proposed vote of no confidence, and Governor Hochul’s push to change New York’s sexual-assault laws.

New evidence is emerging in the Cornell University sexual assault case, including portions of Jane Doe’s original police interview, text messages and details from Cornell’s investigative records. Jordan breaks down what the Tompkins County District Attorney says his office knew when it decided not to pursue criminal charges in 2024, what appears in the newly reported police interview, why the criminal investigation has now been reopened and what Cornell’s newly announced independent review could look like. Plus, the Trump administration has formally reinstated its 2020 Title IX regulations. Jordan explains what actually changed — and what didn’t — including the rules surrounding sexual harassment, off-campus misconduct, live hearings, cross-examination, sexual orientation and gender identity. Then, in Rumor Has It: Are taxpayers paying for pro-Trump television ads? Is the Trump administration considering an MLB baseball field in Grand Teton National Park?

In this episode of UNBIASED University, we examine some of the biggest government scandals in United States history and the lasting impact they had on political accountability and the structure of government oversight. In Part I, we walk through four major scandals that reshaped American politics in different ways: the Credit Mobilier scandal of the 1870s, the Teapot Dome scandal of the 1920s, the release of the Pentagon Papers during the Vietnam War, and the Watergate scandal that ultimately led to the resignation of President Richard Nixon.

In this episode of UNBIASED Politics, we break down the three levels of government in the United States: federal, state, and local. What powers belong to each level, how do their responsibilities differ, and how do these layers of government interact with one another? We walk through the structure and authority of the federal government, the role of state governments within the constitutional system, and the wide range of responsibilities handled at the local level, from counties to cities and school districts. Along the way, we explain how powers are divided, where authority overlaps, and how policies often require coordination across multiple levels of government. ⁠Watch⁠ this episode on YouTube.

In this episode of UNBIASED Politics, we explore the evolution of political parties in the United States and how the country’s party system developed into what we see today. The Constitution never mentioned political parties, and many of the nation’s founders were openly skeptical of them. So how did parties become one of the most powerful forces in American politics? We walk through the rise and fall of early parties, from the Federalists and Democratic-Republicans to the emergence of the modern Democratic and Republican parties. Along the way, we look at key political realignments, shifting voter coalitions, and the historical events that reshaped party identities over time. This episode provides a clear, nonpartisan look at how political parties formed, why they evolved, and how their development continues to shape elections and policy debates in the United States today. ⁠Watch⁠ this episode on YouTube.

UNBIASED University is in session! While Jordan is on maternity leave, she’s breaking down the most critical aspects of the United States government — the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the three branches of the federal government, presidential elections, the evolution of political parties, and more. In this episode of UNBIASED University, we pull back the curtain on the hidden power players in Washington and examine how influence actually works behind the scenes. Who are lobbyists, what do they legally do, and how do Political Action Committees, Super PACs, and so-called dark money groups operate within the campaign finance system? We break down the difference between direct lobbying and independent expenditures, how campaign finance laws have evolved over time, and what Supreme Court decisions have shaped the modern political funding landscape. We also explain the rules around disclosure, coordination, and contribution limits so you can better understand what is legal, what is controversial, and why these systems generate so much debate.

In this episode of UNBIASED University, we break down Presidential Elections and the Electoral College from start to finish. How did presidential elections come about, what do elections look like today compared to the early days, what happens on Election Day, and why does the United States use the Electoral College instead of a direct national popular vote? We walk through the constitutional framework for presidential elections, how electors are chosen, what happens if no candidate receives a majority of electoral votes, and the rare but important scenarios that most Americans are unaware of. We also explore the historical reasoning behind the Electoral College, the major criticisms and defenses of the system, and how it continues to shape modern campaign strategy and voter turnout. Whether you have always found the Electoral College confusing or simply want a clearer understanding of how the president is chosen, this episode provides a straightforward, nonpartisan explanation of one of the most debated features of the American political system.

The conflict between the United States and Iran has escalated over the past year, with the United States launching its most recent strikes against Iran on February 28th. In this episode of UNBIASED Politics, we walk through the full timeline of events leading up to the latest U.S. strikes, including the collapse of nuclear negotiations, the 2025 attacks on Iran’s nuclear facilities, and the renewed wave of strikes in early 2026. We also break down the bigger picture behind the conflict, including Iran’s nuclear program and the history of the 2015 nuclear deal, why preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons has bipartisan support in the U.S., how discussions of regime change fit into the broader strategy, and how the 1979 Iranian Revolution reshaped relations between the United States and Iran. Finally, we answer some of the biggest questions listeners have asked: What are the main arguments for and against U.S. involvement? How likely is regime change in Iran? Could these strikes be unconstitutional or illegal under international law? And what’s the difference between declaring war and what’s happening now?

While Jordan is on maternity leave, she’s breaking down the most critical aspects of the United States government — the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the three branches of the federal government, presidential elections, the evolution of political parties, and more. In this episode of UNBIASED Politics, we examine the evolution of the Equal Protection Clause and how it became one of the most powerful tools in constitutional law. Originally adopted as part of the Fourteenth Amendment after the Civil War, equal protection was intended to safeguard newly freed enslaved people from discriminatory state laws. But over time, its reach expanded far beyond its original context. We trace how the Supreme Court moved from upholding segregation to striking it down, how the modern system of judicial scrutiny developed, and how courts today evaluate laws that treat groups differently. From race and gender classifications to broader questions about fairness and government power, this episode provides a clear, nonpartisan look at how the meaning of equal protection has evolved and why it continues to shape some of the most significant legal debates in the country.

While Jordan is on maternity leave, she’s breaking down the most critical aspects of the United States government — the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the three branches of the federal government, presidential elections, the evolution of political parties, and more. In this episode of UNBIASED Politics, we explore two foundational constitutional principles that continue to shape major legal and political debates: separation of church and state and due process. What does the First Amendment actually require when it comes to religion in public life, and how have courts interpreted the boundaries between government and faith? We break down the Establishment Clause and the Free Exercise Clause, examining how the Supreme Court has navigated issues involving public schools, religious expression, and government funding. We also take a deep dive into due process, the constitutional guarantee that the government must follow fair procedures and respect certain fundamental rights before depriving someone of life, liberty, or property. From procedural protections in courtrooms to broader questions about substantive rights, this episode provides a clear, nonpartisan explanation of how these doctrines developed and why they remain central to constitutional law today.

In this episode of UNBIASED Politics, we continue the UNBIASED University series by examining the Seventh, Eighth, Ninth, and Tenth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution. These amendments focus on the rights of individuals within the legal system and the balance of power between the federal government, the states, and the people. What protections exist in civil trials, what limits does the Constitution place on punishments, and how does the Constitution address rights that are not specifically listed? We break down the right to a jury trial in certain civil cases, the prohibition against excessive fines and cruel and unusual punishment, the recognition that unenumerated rights may still exist, and the principle that powers not delegated to the federal government are reserved to the states or the people. This episode provides a clear, nonpartisan overview of how these often less-discussed amendments continue to shape constitutional law and federalism today.

In this episode of UNBIASED Politics, we continue the UNBIASED University series by breaking down the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution, the amendments that establish many of the core protections individuals have within the criminal justice system. What limits does the Constitution place on government searches and seizures, what rights protect individuals during questioning and prosecution, and what guarantees ensure a fair trial? We discuss the protections against unreasonable searches and seizures, the right against self-incrimination, the guarantees of due process, and the rights to legal counsel, a speedy and public trial, and an impartial jury.

What protections do these amendments actually guarantee, and how have their meanings evolved over time? We explain the freedoms of speech, religion, the press, assembly, and petition, the right to keep and bear arms, and the historical context behind the rarely discussed Third Amendment’s protection against the forced quartering of soldiers. Along the way, we explore the historical origins of these rights, the major Supreme Court decisions that have shaped how they are interpreted today, and the ongoing legal and political debates surrounding them.
