Pags dives into the stunning Luigi Mangione development after Mangione pleaded guilty to federal stalking charges and openly admitted in court that he shot and killed UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. Pags GOES OFF: If he's admitting to the killing, how are we talking about stalking charges—and what happens now with the separate New York murder case? The callers have plenty to say before Free Speech Friday takes a hilarious detour into traveling, food and the crew just having some fun. Then Pags tackles a wild new concern out of Washington: AI chatbots are increasingly being used to help do the work of Congress, but who's actually watching the machines? Finally, President Trump hits Long Island alongside FBI Director Kash Patel and Attorney General Todd Blanche to tout newly released FBI numbers showing violent crime fell sharply in 2025. Pags brings you his favorite moments as Trump, Patel and Blanche make the case that the administration's crime strategy is working—and Trump has plenty to say about just how much safer he believes America is becoming.Learn more about your ad choices.
