Wake Up Right - June 10, 2025

`

Good morning, Wake Up Right fam! I opened yesterday’s newsletter with my thoughts on the Trump administration’s handling of the Epstein files and got so many passionate responses [on both sides of the argument]. So I thought… Let’s open it up to everyone. Share your thoughts below, and I’ll share some of your responses in tomorrow’s newsletter.
What are your thoughts on the Trump administration's handling of the Epstin files? |

Dems warn their base wants blood

House Democrats are waving red flags over a surge of rage and radicalism within their own base – with some voters threatening, "there needs to be blood" in opposition to President Donald Trump.
The details: More than two dozen House Democrats [most requested anonymity] told Axios their constituents are increasingly demanding violent or unlawful action. Here are a few excerpts:
"Our own base is telling us that what we're doing is not good enough ... [that] there needs to be blood to grab the attention of the press and the public,"
"Some [Democrat voters] have suggested ... what we really need to do is be willing to get shot” when visiting ICE facilities.
One lawmaker was told to prepare for "violence ... to fight to protect our democracy."
Another lawmaker said: "People online have sent me crazy s*** ... told me to storm the White House and stuff like that.”
Who is making these threats? Lawmakers say they’re coming largely from white, wealthy liberals in urban or suburban districts.
Some Democrat lawmakers are listening: Rep. LaMonica McIver from New Jersey was recently charged with assaulting ICE agents. And Sen. Alex Padilla of California was briefly detained after storming a Homeland Security briefing.
Left-wing violence: There has been a 700% rise in assaults against ICE agents this year. Last week, 10 people were charged with an organized ambush on ICE agents, where one local officer was shot.
What the White House is saying: Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said: “We certainly call on Democrats to tone down their rhetoric against ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] and Border Patrol agents. “I would encourage AOC and other Democrats to actually meet with the United States Border Patrol. These are honorable Americans who are simply trying to do their job to enforce the law.”

Biden doctor pleads the 5th

President Biden’s longtime physician invoked the Fifth Amendment repeatedly while testifying to Congress on Wednesday — refusing to answer questions about Biden’s cognitive fitness and potential coverups.
The details: During a closed-door deposition with the House Oversight Committee, Dr. Kevin O’Connor pleaded the 5th when asked:
“Were you ever told to lie about the president’s health?”
“Did you ever believe President Biden was unfit to execute his duties?”
The GOP response: House Oversight Chair James Comer called it proof of a “conspiracy to cover up” Biden’s cognitive decline, accusing O’Connor of hiding behind the Fifth.
Zoom out: O’Connor faced criticism earlier this year after Joe Biden revealed he had an aggressive form of prostate cancer, with many wondering how his doctor hadn’t caught it in an earlier stage (or whether it was known and not disclosed to the public).
Up next: The committee has five more depositions lined up, including top former Biden aides Anita Dunn, Ron Klain, and Steve Ricchetti.

Shop the Wake Up Right store!

A few months ago, I was at a butcher in my neighborhood and saw a diagram of a cow, with all the cuts of meat labeled. And that gave me an idea for a t-shirt:
DOGE Butcher Shop — but instead of the cow, we use a pig. And the cuts of meat in the diagram represent all the waste, fraud, and abuse being butchered by the Trump admin.
Over the last few weeks, I worked with a really talented graphic designer who brought it to life. And on Friday I got a sample in the mail and I’m happy to say, it came out better than I’d hoped.
Also, my wife told me I had to mention that the t-shirt it’s printed on is Comfort Colors. Apparently, they’re well-known for high-quality materials. I just chose them because they are printed in the U.S. and made with 100 U.S. cotton.
