Congress, Courts Take Their Power Back and Check Trump

Congress, Courts Take Their Power Back and Check Trump

What happens when power keeps pushing past the rules — and the system finally starts saying no? In Episode 42 of The Quiet Loud, DeAntony Collins connects the dots between the collapse of the anti-weaponization fund, Bill Pulte’s intelligence role, the Senate’s war powers vote, detention facility failures, and the deeper question underneath all of it: Who actually holds power in this country? This episode is about checks and balances — not as a civics lesson, but as the emergency brakes on executive power. Because democracy does not survive because leaders are trustworthy. It survives because the system forces power to answer. #TheQuietLoud #ChecksAndBalances #Politics Chapters 03:31 — Why the fund collapsed under pressure 05:18 — The importance of internal legal resistance 07:11 — How dangerous precedents expand over time 08:38 — The anti-weaponization fund and judicial scrutiny 11:03 — Former federal judges raise fraud concerns 13:17 — Why the fund collapsed under pressure 15:13 — “Show us” — the demand for transparency and accountability 17:57 — Who is still willing to say no?

Trump's Biggest Problem Isn't Democrats - It’s The Voters

A wall couldn't stop the tunnel. A ceasefire couldn't stop the fighting. And now a federal judge has stopped a controversial $1.8 billion DOJ fund while the Trump administration elevates Bill Pulte to Acting Director of National Intelligence. Tonight on The Quiet Loud: • The DOJ's Anti-Weaponization Fund faces legal trouble • Bill Pulte's rise inside the administration • The federal court ruling on the transgender military ban • What June 2 primary results tell us about November • The 869-foot smuggling tunnel discovered near San Diego • Why all of these stories are really about power Because the question isn't just what's happening. The question is who benefits. Join the Quiet Quorum.

Cuba, Iran, and Trump’s Collapsing Approval

Democracies don’t usually collapse all at once. They change through: redrawn maps, strategic leaks, manufactured urgency, rising costs, public exhaustion, and the slow normalization of instability. In Episode 38 of The Quiet Loud, DeAntony Collins connects the dots between: — the Cuba drone intelligence leak — Iran escalation and rising economic pressure — the Supreme Court’s Voting Rights Act decision — real-time redistricting chaos — and Trump’s collapsing approval ratings heading into the midterms Because these stories are not separate. They are one story. 🎙️ The Quiet Loud with DeAntony Collins Join the Quiet Quorum. Like. Subscribe. Share.
