LIVE 10 AM Eastern time, Streaming Anytime: Hosts Ted Rall and Manila Chan cover President Trump’s bold new proclamation banning travelers and immigrants from a dozen countries while restricting entry from seven others. Citing national security, terrorism risks, inadequate vetting, and deportation issues, Trump’s decree fully bars entry from nations like Afghanistan, Iran, Libya, and Yemen, impacting both permanent immigrants and temporary visa holders like tourists. Partial suspensions hit countries like Cuba and Venezuela, with exemptions for U.S. residents, diplomats, and certain visa holders. The ban follows a recent attack in Boulder, Colorado, by an Egyptian national who overstayed his visa, fueling heated debates over security versus discrimination. Critics say Trump’s move is reactionary and xenophobic, arguing that it unfairly serves as group punishment, while Republicans claim it’s a necessary step to protect the nation. Ted and Manila unpack the facts, controversies, and global implications of this sweeping policy shift. Plus: President Trump orders an investigation into whether Joe Biden’s cognitive decline was hidden by aides using an autopen to sign executive actions. Trump questions the legitimacy of Biden’s pardons, including commuting 37 federal death row sentences. A new book by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson exposes efforts to downplay Biden’s mental acuity during his presidency.

Today brings you a heart-pounding episode of “The TMI Show with hosts Ted Rall and Manila Chan,” diving into a game-changing medical revolution! Japan’s Nara Medical University, led by Professor Hiromi Sakai, is making waves with clinical trials for universal artificial blood. Rare blood type? No problem! Nara has you covered with fake blood. This purple-hued, hemoglobin-based blood, usable for all blood types and storable for two years at room temperature, could solve global blood shortages, especially in emergencies and low-income nations with sketchy refrigeration facilities. With only 40% of the world’s 118 million annual blood donations coming from high-income countries, millions of sick people lack access to the kind of transfusions that saved Ted’s life in 1984, costing lives in trauma, surgery, and childbirth. Sakai’s lab is out to eliminate infection risks, blood type mismatches, and short shelf life, hoping to launch by 2030. But it’s not without risks—previous artificial blood trials in the U.S. and U.K. raised safety concerns like toxicity and immune reactions. Will Japan’s project solve these issues or face similar setbacks? Tune in for a deep dive into this potential lifesaver and its global impact. Plus: A Boulder man’s chilling plot to attack a pro-Israel group with Molotov cocktails, for which he has been charged as a hate criminal. The dish behind Ukraine’s daring “Operation Spiderweb” drone strikes that destroyed Russian bombers, forcing global defense strategists to rethink everything.

LIVE 10 AM Eastern time, Streaming Anytime: After the terror attack in Boulder, “The TMI Show with Ted Rall and Manila Chan” analyzes this latest clash over Israel’s war against the Palestinian people in Gaza. Mohamed Sabry Soliman, a 45-year-old Egyptian national, is accused of unleashing chaos at a pro-Israel vigil calling attention to hostages held by Hamas on Boulder’s Pearl Street Mall, yelling “Free Palestine” while hurling Molotov cocktails and using a makeshift flamethrower. Eight people, aged 67 to 88, were injured, some with severe burns, during a “Run For Their Lives” demonstration for Israeli hostages. The FBI calls it a targeted terrorist act, tied to rising antisemitic violence amid the Israel-Hamas conflict. So far, however, the evidence only points to anti-Zionism. This assault, coinciding with the Jewish holiday Shavuot, follows the “Free Palestine” double murder of Israeli embassy staffers in Washington. Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu condemned the “vicious” assault, praying for victims’ recovery. A witness captured harrowing footage of bystanders dousing flames on a woman set ablaze. The controversy? Soliman’s illegal immigration status and cries of “End Zionists” fuel debates over immigration and ideological violence. Tune in as Ted and Manila unpack this tragedy with unfiltered insight.
