Todd Blanche Lies, Primary Wins and David Sloane Guests on the Nicole Sandler Show 6-3-26

Remember when Marco Rubio called Trump a con artist? When JD Vance said he was noxious? When Tulsi, Lindsey Graham, Pete Hegseth, and Meghan Kelly were all falling over each other to explain why Donald Trump was unfit for office? Yeah. We remember too. Today we're catching up on a LOT of news — Scott Pelley's devastating farewell statement after being fired from 60 Minutes, the Todd Blanche testimony where he somehow couldn't figure out what a conflict of interest is, the blanket immunity deal the DOJ quietly handed Trump (no, the slush fund got walked back, but THAT part didn't), Dr. Oz explaining that people who don't use their insurance are committing fraud (???), and my husband David Sloane — sports agent of 40+ years — joins me to explain why the Protect College Sports Act is neither protective nor sporting. Plus: Tina Peters gets out of jail and immediately goes back to the greatest hits. And more!
