60% Say Trump’s Corrupt, Black Jobs Gap Widens, Grieving Black Youth | AMPU | July 9, 2026 4 PM PST

A new poll says 60% of Americans believe Trump is using his office for personal gain — even non-MAGA Republicans are split. Meanwhile Black unemployment sits at 6.6%, nearly double the national rate, while the President insists it’s “never been better.” Plus: a nationwide diarrhea outbreak, and UC weighing a return to the SAT. In Hour 1, attorney and organizer Todd Belcore joins me to talk Ben Crump’s newest case, a disturbing AI lawsuit, Erika Kirk’s fight for courtroom transparency, and California colleges caught stockpiling military-grade weapons on campus.
