A new investigation by The Daily Beast reveals that former President Donald Trump posted on Truth Social during the 'wee hours'—between 9pm and 6am—on 25 out of 30 nights in April, suggesting severe sleep deprivation. The data, compiled by correspondent Josh Fialo, shows Trump posted up to 18 times in a single night, with only five nights free of late-night activity. Experts warn this chronic sleeplessness—especially in a 79-year-old leader—could signal deeper mental health and cognitive decline, with parallels drawn to dementia markers and poor decision-making. The episode also dissects the fallout from the White House Correspondents' Dinner, where a security breach involving an alleged shooter next door to host Hugh Docherty created chaos, and the war in Iran, which has seen plummeting public approval and a $4.30 national gas average—now nearing $5. The episode argues that Trump’s erratic behavior, from midnight rants to war decisions, reflects a system under strain, with aides visibly exhausted and public trust eroding. The podcast further examines the political fallout: Pete Hegseth’s disastrous hearings, Scott Jennings’ public meltdown on CNN, and the rise of a new generation of Democratic lawmakers who are holding the administration accountable. Polls show Trump’s approval on inflation has dropped to -40.3, breaking the scale, while prediction markets now give Democrats an 80% chance of winning the Senate.
