3 JUL 2025 · 🚨 CBS and Paramount Paid Trump $16 Million? Here’s the Real Reason Legacy media just wrote a $16 million check to Donald Trump—and the establishment is pretending it’s “just a settlement.” But we know better. In today’s Morning Report, Willie Lawson takes you behind the curtain of the CBS–Paramount payout and exposes the true motive: protecting a multibillion-dollar Skydance merger from collapsing under regulatory pressure. This isn’t just about a defamation claim. This is about power, politics, and billion-dollar desperation. As CBS reels from internal revolt and Elizabeth Warren screams “bribery,” we break down how Trump used legal and regulatory leverage to force the media giants to fold. Here’s what we cover in this explosive episode:
- What really happened with the CBS/60 Minutes lawsuit
- Why Paramount suddenly paid $15M to Trump’s presidential library
- The inside story of the Skydance–Paramount merger and Trump’s FCC
- Why Elizabeth Warren is demanding a bribery investigation
- How legacy media is funding the very library they tried to cancel
- What this means for the future of corporate journalism
🎯 This is the kind of independent truth that legacy networks used to deliver—before they started writing settlement checks to the people they tried to silence. 📢 Share this episode if you’re tired of legacy media’s hypocrisy. 👇 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe! 📺 Available on:

2 JUL 2025 · About the Guest(s): There are no specific guests featured in this episode of the Morning Report. The host, Willie Lawson, leads the discussion. Willie is an established commentator known for his incisive take on global and economic issues. With years of experience in dissecting political and economic narratives, Willie offers listeners a fresh, often provocative perspective on current events. His show, the Morning Report, aims to challenge mainstream media narratives and offer a voice to perspectives that may be underrepresented in traditional discourse. Episode Summary: In this gripping episode of the Morning Report, host Willie Lawson delves into the controversial decision by President Trump to shut down USAID as a separate government agency. The episode challenges mainstream media portrayals and explores uncharted perspectives, such as African voices appreciating this move. Willie argues that shutting down USAID, a long-standing mechanism for foreign aid, is not a reckless abandonment but an overdue call for African self-reliance and independence. Willie highlights the empowerment of Africa beyond foreign aid, underscoring the notion that USAID has historically managed Africa through financial control rather than pure benevolence. Key figures such as Agente Wade from Senegal criticize the dependency foreign aid has created, asserting that Africa needs capitalism instead of charity. The episode touches upon Kenya's abundant natural resources, pointing out that it could thrive independently given the space to leverage its wealth. By discussing the psychological reliance built by aid, Willie urges a shift from dependency to dignity and self-sufficiency, marking a potential new era for African nations as they shake off old colonial-style constraints. Key Takeaways:
- Self-Reliance Over Dependency: Africa's potential lies in capitalism and self-sufficiency, not perpetual aid.
- Kenya's Untapped Wealth: With resources like oil, gas, and minerals, Kenya exemplifies a country that could prosper independently.
- Psychological Liberation: Moving beyond foreign aid requires dismantling the ingrained mindset of dependency.
- Shift in Perspective: The media often overlooks how many Africans view reduced foreign aid as a path toward autonomy.
- A Call for Partnering, Not Patronizing: Willie argues for a new narrative where Africa moves from aid recipients to equal global partners.
Notable Quotes:
- "Foreign aid has infantilized Africa. We don't need charity, we need capitalism." – Agente Wade
- "Africa's greatest weakness is psychological dependence." – Chica Onyeni
- "It's not just over dollars, but over dignity." – Willie Lawson
- "Africa was too rich to be poor and too old to be treated like a child." – Willie Lawson
- "Let Africa rise not by Western guilt, but on African grit." – Willie Lawson
Resources:
- Book: Capitalist Nigger: The Road to Success: A Spider-Web Doctrine by Chica Onyeni

27 JUN 2025 · Where did the COVID relief money actually go? In this explosive weekend edition of The Morning Report, Willie Lawson uncovers the truth behind America’s biggest government payout in history — and the devastating aftermath. With over $4.6 trillion in federal COVID aid distributed across the country, states like California, New York, and Illinois aren’t just broke — they’re on life support. From robot dogs in LAUSD to DEI consultants in New York and luxury migrant housing in Chicago, this deep-dive episode exposes the truth about where that money really went — and why the people it was meant to help are still suffering. Meanwhile, small businesses closed, students fell behind, and inflation soared. Why? Because this wasn’t just mismanagement — it was a slow-moving, bureaucratic con that benefited unions, consultants, and political insiders while gutting American institutions. Key Topics:
- Where the $4.6 trillion in COVID aid actually went
- How California blew its surplus and fell into a $45B deficit
- The collapse of LAUSD and other major school districts
- Federal funding used to promote DEI, CRT, and woke agendas
- The permanent rise in dependency and government control
- How this “aid” became a pipeline for future crisis spending
Why It Matters:
Americans are feeling the squeeze — higher prices, declining schools, fewer police, and more chaos. This isn’t just fallout from a pandemic — it’s the result of deliberate political choices. And unless we expose the COVID Cash Con, the next “crisis” will bring more of the same. 📢 Subscribe now for honest, bold conservative media that doesn’t pull punches. 🧠 Join the fight: http://www.fightbackmedia.com

26 JUN 2025 · California’s $45 Billion Meltdown: LAUSD on the Brink | The Morning Report with Willie Lawson
In today’s explosive Morning Report, Willie Lawson exposes the fiscal time bomb ticking beneath California’s shiny surface—and why the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) may be ground zero when it goes off. Governor Gavin Newsom and the Democrat supermajority in Sacramento have driven the state into a staggering $45 billion deficit, blowing through a historic surplus with reckless spending, pandemic windfalls, and permanent program expansions. From climate wish lists to free health care for illegal immigrants, they’ve governed like the money would never run out. But it has. Zooming in on LAUSD, the largest school district in the state—and the second-largest in the nation—Willie breaks down how district leaders “got drunk” on $5+ billion in COVID relief, used it to hire thousands of permanent staff, and are now scrambling to avoid layoffs by draining reserves and delaying cuts. The result? A nearly $3 billion deficit this year alone. Meanwhile, union demands grow louder, activist programs expand, and California’s leaders remain silent as schools edge toward collapse. This isn’t just about bad math—it’s about bad priorities, broken leadership, and a refusal to face financial reality. 🔥 Don’t miss this deep-dive into how progressive policies are setting fire to public education—and what taxpayers need to know before the next election. 📲 Subscribe now to FightBack Media on YouTube

26 JUN 2025 · TRUMP TAKES CHARGE: NATO AGREES TO 5% DEFENSE SPENDING GOAL BY 2035 President Trump just rocked the NATO summit in The Hague — and forced our allies to finally pony up. In this episode of The Morning Report, Willie Lawson breaks down how Trump secured a historic deal to raise NATO member defense spending to 5% of GDP by 2035. No more excuses. No more freeloading. ▶️ Here’s what we cover:
- Why Trump’s bold leadership got results where others failed
- How the new 5% deal could reshape global defense and U.S. spending
- Reactions from NATO leaders — the good, the bad, and the tantrums
- How this helps YOU as a taxpayer and American citizen
- The media meltdown and why they’re furious Trump actually got it done
Europe's been riding on our defense for decades — now they’re on the hook. Trump didn’t go begging. He set terms. And for the first time in decades, NATO looks like it might actually be able to defend itself. This is foreign policy with guts. American leadership without apology. 👊 If you’re tired of spin, support real conservative voices.

18 JUN 2025 · Rand Paul has shifted from “no way” to “maybe yes” on Trump’s “Big, Beautiful Bill” — but he’s not giving in without tough conditions. In this Morning Report, Willie Lawson breaks down: ✅ What’s really in the BBB (hint: tax cuts, defense and border spending — and a staggering $5 trillion debt ceiling increase)
🛑 Why Rand Paul hated it — calling it reckless, fiscally tone-deaf, and a political liability
🤝 What changed — a direct call from Trump and leverage that only Paul holds in a razor-thin Senate
⚠️ Reactions from Sen. Johnson, Speaker Johnson, Elon Musk, and Democrats — and why GOP unity is still shaky
🎯 What this means — can Paul wring real concessions or will it be all optics? What’s at stake in the debt‑over‑deficit GOP debate? Paul’s stance so far: “I’m not an absolute no — but get that debt ceiling separated or trimmed, deepen spending cuts, and I’ll vote yes.” In other words — deal with me, don’t bypass me. 🔔 SUBSCRIBE for conservative news with backbone
