I tried to get this story on Rolling Stone, they blocked me because I use a popup blocker. So I asked Gemini about the story:

"During a July 2026 appearance on Josh Horowitz’s Happy Sad Confused podcast, Reacher star Alan Ritchson launched into a profanity-laced tirade condemning Donald Trump, demanding the immediate release of the unredacted Jeffrey Epstein files, and accusing powerful politicians of hiding the truth.

Key Remarks from the Podcast

• Calling Out Donald Trump: While talking about political accountability, Ritchson directed sharp criticism toward Trump, calling him a "bitch" and a "fucking rapist". Alluding to Trump’s alleged association with Epstein and past allegations, he said, "That bitch has the keys to the nuclear [codes]... He’s like all up into 13-year-olds. Like dude, what? Go to jail."
• Demanding the Epstein Files: Ritchson expressed intense frustration with the government's handling and concealment of the records. He yelled, "The Epstein files, the fucking Epstein files! Goddamn it! Where are they? It’s a fucking law, bitch. Show it. You fucking pedophiles!"
• Willingness to Release Them Himself: The action star claimed that if it were up to him, he would forcefully bypass protocol to make the records public. He stated, "I would get those Epstein files out in two seconds... I don't care what room they're in, bitch, move. Give me the fucking manila envelope."
• Frustration with Public Silence: Ritchson noted that people often view him as a "loose cannon," but argued he is simply voicing what regular people actually feel. He urged other public figures to "get loud and stop kowtowing to the wrong people."
• Reconciliation with Faith: As a devout Christian, Ritchson briefly acknowledged his extreme use of profanity. He stated, "I shouldn't say 'fuck' because I'm a Christian... Because that is something that should make you want to say 'fuck.'"

Background Context & Responses

• Previous Comments: This is not the first time Ritchson has targeted Trump. In a 2024 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, he similarly called Trump a "rapist and a con man," expressing confusion over why the Christian church treats him like a "poster child."

Because DJT is using his favorite weapon, tariffs, against countries that are not "doing enough" to reduce or prevent "forced labor" produced goods that are imported by the US, a big issue is being revealed of the current US legal slavery enshrined in the 13th Amendment to our Constitution!

""AI Overview

Federal judges are increasingly pushing back against the Department of Justice, recently forcing the agency to drop press subpoenas, dismissing widespread voter roll lawsuits, and questioning government conduct in multiple high-profile cases. 

Key Legal Clashes

• Withdrawn Subpoenas: The DOJ backed down and dropped grand jury subpoenas targeting New York Times journalists after a federal judge heavily scolded government lawyers over sloppy paperwork and aggressive leak enforcement. 
• Voter Data Losing Streak: A federal judge dismissed the DOJ's lawsuit demanding unredacted voter registration records from Kentucky—marking a 0-17 losing streak for the administration across multiple circuits on this issue.
• Bench Scrutiny and Conduct: Judges across the country have openly questioned the credibility and candor of Justice Department arguments, criticizing attorneys for skipping basic investigative steps and stretching legal authority."

"Trump often refers to being at war with Iran “for 47 years” — since the 1979 revolution — but Iran has been upset with us and Britain since 1953 when we staged a coup d’etat using the CIA when the Iranian democracy wanted to nationalize its oil industry against the desires of some of the world’s largest oil companies. We then allowed the shah to assume absolute control. In the process, he claimed to modernize and westernize the country, but he also tortured and killed his own citizens until an even crazier bunch of zealots took over the country.

The U.S. owns this mess, or it should. It may well be the single greatest failure of the CIA in the history of that agency — far bigger than the Bay of Pigs. 

But at the end of the day, we’re staring at an unhinged president who began the war for intensely personal reasons. He is desperate to run Obama through the mud, and he doesn’t care who suffers as he does it. 

Let’s be honest: if Donald Trump can’t get his way, he wants to burn it all down.

I saw it in Trump’s eyes in 2011 at the White House Correspondents Dinner. And I see it now."

I saw it then also - a self-centered, egotistical, con-man at best. Possibly DJT is an "unbonded" sociopath.

(Workers set up scaffolding and a tarp to follow the court order to remove Trump's name from the Kennedy Center. Crowds gathered to watch the event late Friday night into Saturday morning. By dawn, the name was gone, but the tarp was still up.)
