In explosive legal filings, the DOJ indicted the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) on multiple counts of wire fraud and money laundering – accusing the anti-racism organization of secretly paying millions of donor dollars to K*K leaders, white nationalists, and even organizers of the infamous 2017 Charlottesville rally.

Acting U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche stated that the SPLC was “manufacturing the extremism it purports to oppose by paying sources to stoke racial hatred." The documents contain many examples, including allegations of $270,000 paid to a source that "made racist postings under the supervision of the SPLC" and an informant who was paid over $1,000,000 after stealing 25 boxes of documents from another extremist organization – with full support of his high-level SPLC contact.

Emmy-winning producer and ICAN CEO Del Bigtree returns to expose yet another massive institutional fraud. Journalist Emily Jashinsky joins to break down the cultural fallout, the DOJ’s indictment, and the latest on RFK Jr.'s battles with the medical bureaucracy over vaccine injury tables and mandatory flu shots in the military.

Just in time for summer, the media is sounding a new alarm over "Cicada" (BA.3.2), a highly mutated COVID-19 subvariant currently spreading in California. Reports are blaming "complacency" and low vaccination rates among seniors, with warnings that the new strain efficiently evades prior immunity. Is this a genuine health threat, or is the establishment laying the groundwork for another season of fear-mongering and mRNA vaccine pushes?
Independent journalist Naomi Wolf joins Dr. Drew to discuss the timing of this new media narrative, the ongoing revelations from the Pfizer Papers, and RFK Jr.'s fight against federal health bureaucrats. Veteran emergency physician Dr. Mark Trozzi breaks down the alarming realities of COVID-19 injections, autopsy reports on myocarditis, and why the medical establishment continues to push outdated solutions.

"Canada Is Killing Itself" says The Atlantic, in an explosive report on MAiD (Medical Assistance In Dying) practitioners in Canada – including Dr. Ellen Wiebe, who has reportedly "facilitated the deaths of more than 430 patients." It's getting worse: according to a new report, the Quebec College of Physicians has even raised the idea of extending current MAiD practices to cover individuals suffering purely from mental illnesses like depression, and to infants under one year old.

But what happens in Canada doesn't often stay with its borders: California is rapidly adopting draconian measures that mirror Canada's radical program. Since it was made legal in 2016, MAiD has been responsible for over 76,000 deaths in Canada, now accounting for over five percent of all deaths in the country.
Attorney and ex-Canadian Viva Frei joins Dr. Drew to expose the reality of these extreme medical policies. Kira Davis discusses how California is normalizing assisted death and taxpayer-funded sex-change surgeries. Constitutional scholar Timothy Sandefur explains how the American ideals of individualism and freedom are our only defense against this unprecedented institutional overreach.

"We're getting people really extreme treatment that is not serving them," trans activist Brianna Wu tells Dr. Drew, warning that progressive politics have caused grave harm to healthcare for people with gender dysphoria. As someone who transitioned over two decades ago, Brianna argues that the modern medical establishment has been "politically hijacked" by its most extreme, neurotic voices... and says things have gotten so bad, we must "roll back" to the DSM-4 and "get all these politics out of it" to undo the damage.
"It was called the standards of care," says Brianna. "Every step built on other steps. If I wanted to get hormones, I couldn't go to Planned Parenthood and sign a waiver. I had to go do three months of therapy, and then... if I had no more comorbidities and no complicating factors, and the therapist felt comfortable with it, then I could take it to a doctor. Then I could get on hormones. Then I could start living as a woman. Then we could think about surgery."
"Their political solution was to say trans women can't get health care," Brianna continues. "If I cleared all of those steps easily in Mississippi 22 years ago, I really think someone today can go find a doctor if they actually have gender dysphoria and talk to them for three months. That seems utterly reasonable to me."

Retired Green Beret Nick Freitas (author of The Manbook) discusses the crisis of modern masculinity, how to push back against "black-pilled" doomers on the political right, and responds to reports of influencer Clavicular being hospitalized for an overdose. Is "looksmaxxing" actually masculine?
In explosive testimony in Germany, Dr. Helmut Sterz (former Pfizer executive & head of their EU toxicology centers) estimated up to 60,000 COVID vaccine-related deaths in Germany alone. Elon Musk responded "The vaccine dosage was obviously too high and done too many times...my second vaccine shot almost sent me to the hospital. Felt like I was dying."
Investigative journalist Sonia Elijah exposes the institutional cover-up, and how HHS Secretary Alex Azar invoked the PREP Act to grant blanket liability to vaccine manufacturers a full 35 days before the WHO even declared a pandemic. Sonia also discusses "miracle" updates from Edogawa Hospital in Japan, the only facility known to have successfully cleared spike proteins and amyloid blood clots using dual filter plasmapheresis and stem cells.

According to the New York Times, attorney Aaron Siri and HHS Secretary RFK Jr. are overhauling the CDC & ACIP vaccine advisory committee. The planned changes include a restructuring of its vaccine charter – incorporating a proposal that "places a heavy emphasis on vaccine safety and includes “recovery from serious vaccine injuries” as among the types of expertise that would qualify someone to be a committee member."
Aaron Siri discusses his viral petition and why he wants to end the era of "vaccinating children like cattle." Pathologist Dr. Ryan Cole gives an update on his fierce legal battle against the Washington State Medical Commission's attempt to restrict his license. Darrlene Alquiza (CEO of Informed Policy Advocates) breaks down California's SB1377—a crucial new bill designed to return the rights of doctors to write medical exemptions without the draconian oversight of the state health department.

Is "obese" now more offensive than "fat"? Fitness icon Jillian Michaels went viral on a "Surrounded" debate with body positivity activists who demanded she use the word "fat-bodied" instead of "obese." Producer Kaleb Nation (born in 1988) says his Millennial generation was raised the opposite: "obese" was far kinder than "fat." We asked obesity expert Dr. Jessica Duncan if changing from clinical terminology is actually helping her patients.

"These were not mistakes my government made. These were lies my government told me." Dr. Kelly Victory breaks down a bombshell revelation from Senator Ron Johnson alleging that federal scientists under the Biden administration actively suppressed safety signals regarding ischemic strokes and heart risks of mRNA boosters — which she says they knew about as early as November 2022. Dr. Drew and Dr. Victory expose the draconian university vaccine mandates and why coercing students and workers to participate in a medical experiment via the threat of losing their jobs or education is a gross violation of the Nuremberg Code.
