This July Fourth, our team went searching for where "No Kings" actually started — and found a story that was covered up for decades and still isn't in most history books. In 1772, a year and a half before the Boston Tea Party, a group of colonists rowed out under a moonless sky, shot a British officer, burned a Royal Navy ship to the waterline — and when the King demanded names and offered a fortune for them, an entire colony refused to talk. Rhode Island's Governor, Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, and local historians tell us the real story — including where it's been hiding in plain sight for 250 years. This is a public episode.

While Jim is off, we’re picking some of our favorite shows to re-air. Today it’s tennis legend Martina Navratilova, who defected from communist Czechoslovakia in 1975 — and says Trump's America is showing every sign of the totalitarian regime she escaped. Navratilova is currently appearing in a new Netflix documentary titled, Chris & Martina: The Final Set, which premieres globally on Netflix on June 26, 2026. We also picked our interview with Academy Award-nominated actress Lily Gladstone (Killers of the Flower Moon), of Blackfeet and Nez Perce heritage, whose peoples survived a deliberate campaign of genocide. Gladstone joined Jim to discuss her powerful PBS documentary "Bring Them Home."And finally, thank you Deeanna Burleson, Bird Mama, John H, Stuart Cohen, Kate Weissmann, and many others for tuning into the broadcast Join us for our next live video in the app at 4p ET weekdays.

Plus: the FBI and DHS weakened at exactly the moment the US faces its highest domestic terror risk in years.Plus, Ruth Ben Ghiat joins to discuss Trump's incessant fraud claims, despite never offering or finding any evidence of election fraud.Thank you Dianne Mize, Mediocre mamma, Joyce E.

I don’t normally let it rip like this. But these aren’t normal times. It was a ton of fun. So, perhaps I will have to do more of this in the future. Here’s what I told the crowd of about 400 people at the Holiday Inn in Missoula. (a technical note - the videographer missed a bit of the speech)“I’d like to thank the Missoula county democratic party for inviting me to the big Williams dinner. Love the Williams. Lot of people here. Wow. I am nowhere near the coast right now… no ocean close by.. I did see a river and there were surfers.. Which was great. But i want to make sure nobody brought any seashells with them tonight. Hand em over. No numbers either. You can’t say 86 47…I think we should call him 32 for his poll numbers.I’ve been told for a while by friends that it was high time i made it back to Montana.. And the views.. The hospitality.. And the food do not disappoint. Plus the last couple of times i visited your state it was for a rally for a certain political candidate. Got a little dicey. I’ll get into that. This is a much friendlier crowd i must say. I raced out here and escaped the madness of Washington DC… in part because i needed a break… even a brief one… and also because i try to go wherever i can to deliver the urgent message…. I have brought with me tonight.And before i do that i have to tell you it’s not easy for a reporter like yours truly… to go out on a limb and just tell it like is these days. Just let it rip.I’m used to showing up to a big fancy studio in a suit, and fix my hair just right, even put on a little makeup. All of that is out the window now. You might have seen my last day on the air at CNN. It was back in January 2025.. About one week after Donald Trump came back into the white house. And i told the audience… this… “it’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give into the lies. Don’t give into fear. Hold on to the truth and hope.” I delivered that message over the airwaves because i was greatly worried about what was already starting to happen in this country. You see… trump had just pardoned all of the criminals who stormed the capitol on January sixth. Major tv networks were paying trump these ridiculous multi-million-dollar settlements… universities… law firms… and other major American institutions were beginning to bend the knee. And i thought all of that.. Was absolutely… totally wrong. As the son of a Cuban refugee… i am here to tell you… the last thing i am going to do… is bow down to a tyrantYou see i know this man. I’ve covered him for more than a decade. I’ve been to hundreds of trump rallies… speeches and press conferences. I was at the white house on january sixth…when trump and his forces tried to overturn a free and fair election… and i remember walking around the white house looking for an official to explain what was going on. And nearly all of them were gone. They had scattered like cockroaches. A lot of this got started during the 2016 campaign… when trump started attacking the free press in America with the kind of language we had never really heard from presidential candidate before. You might remember when he called me “fake news…” and worse… “the enemy of the people.” Back in those days… we in the white house press corps… tried to warn the president and his team that this kind of language can be dangerous. But our appeals for decency fell on deaf ears. That’s because he figured out… calling us “the enemy of the people…” worked so well with his people. There was this one trump rally in Montana right before the midterm elections in 2018. At that rally… the president praised greg gianforte, when he was a congressman. Ever heard of that guy? Isn’t he the governor or something. Where is Greg? Is here tonight??? At the time, his claim to fame was that he once body slammed a journalist named Ben Jacobs, a friend of mine. Trump whipped that rally into a frenzy when he declared Gianforte was his kind of guy. The crowd went wild. They cheered and they laughed. And as i looked over to one group of young men, one of them looked back at me and ran his thumb across his neck... Like he wanted to slit my throat.At these rallies… we were called “scum…traitors,” and worse. The atmosphere was so intense we often had bodyguards. Sometimes we had to run back to our cars after these rallies were over. It didn’t feel like i was in America anymore. Maybe I’m old fashioned. But in my view… you don’t treat your fellow Americans like that. You don’t treat human beings like that.Trump now calls reporters “piggy…” and “stupid…” and so on. I gotta tell ya… if i were in that white house press corps today… i would have some questions to ask.Oh would i have some questions.Like… who you calling piggy?Do you think that you… Donald Trump… should be calling other people piggy?It’s just a question.And how do you pronounce Iran… is it eh-rahn… or i-ran… as in… i ran up your gas prices???Oh and why are you mentioned in the Epstein files 38,000 times? Now those would be some questions!!!But in all seriousness… this trump toxin - that has been injected into our political discourse - has been spreading throughout our nation’s blood stream for more than a decade now. Our kids and grandkids are now soaking up this culture of bullying and intimidation as this poison now courses through America’s social media platforms. And the man at the center of it all – has his own toxic social media platform… called truth social… You probably saw just the other day he posted an image of himself as Jesus. Though he later claimed he thought it was just a picture of a doctor.Can you believe that??I tell ya.. Jesus could turn water into wine.But trump can turn… truth… into b******t… can’t he?You can’t make this stuff up.Trump as Jesus..are you serious?Trump doesn’t walk on water.He can barely stay awake at cabinet meetings. He is churning out this garbage during the wee hours of the morning… when a man his age… or any age!... Should be getting his rest. Perhaps that’s why he has so much trouble staying awake during those cabinet meetings. Have you seen those??? He’s slumped over… mouth drooping. And just snoozing away. Have you seen that? It’s not a good look.And his social media antics are as appalling as ever… consider some of his posts from just in the last month… when trump threatened to wipe out Iran’s civilization. He repeatedly lies about the 2020 election… issues threats about what he might do this time around.. During the upcoming midterms. As one of his former top officials told me on my podcast the other day… and i hope you watch that… it’s called the Jim Acosta show… i know very orginial. But this official ty cobb… told me last month..that just based on trump’s truth social account.. The president is (quote) “clearly insane.”Trump has slapped his name on the Kennedy center…he wants to build a giant arch in front of Arlington national cemetery… and he’s even trying to paint the reflecting pool on the national mall.. Blue… so it looks like a swimming pool. Totally normal stuff!Do you want to see trump in a bathing suit??They better use a lot of chlorine in that pool!!!Gonna be a lot of orange stuff in there.I haven’t even gotten into the oval office…and all of the gold décor… and the strange statues he’s set up… and how he has paved over the rose garden. It looks like Liberace and Saddam Hussein collaborated on an extreme white house makeover.Forgive the Virginia boy in me… coming out when i say this… but he ain’t right! He ain’t right. Which all takes me back to this struggle with what i have decided to do with this stage in my career. For the longest time, i worked in places where we would both-sides the news. One side says this. The other side says that. Here are the facts. Make up your minds on your own. It’s a great system. On the news… i believe in objectivity and fairness and giving everybody a fair shake. I believe in the news. I also believe there are not two sides to a story… when it’s a matter of right and wrong. But these days… i feel like delivering what i call… “real news…” As in let’s get real… You wanna get real… Missoula?!!I am tired of taking it on the chin.Are you tired??I am sick and tired… of the lies… and the b******t… and the insanity.. Each and every day..Are you tired??I didn’t hear you… are you tired??After covering the news for the last 30 years, at both the local and naitonal level, i must report to you something that i never thought i would say to an audience… the american way of life is in danger.What is the American way of life? It’s hard to describe. But i will take a stab at it. I would define the American way of life as… our democracy… our ability to choose our elected leaders… so we can realize the American dream… and have a bright future for our kids and grandkids… And what about our elections? Are we going to see ice and American soldiers at polling places this fall? The defense secretary was asked that and he didn’t rule it out. What about our system of checks and balances… does it feel like we have those anymore? The supreme court gave trump almost blanket immunity to do whatever he wants. The republicans who control congress… led by house speaker Mike Johnson… have all but made trump a dictator. It’s not one party rule in America.It’s one man ruling over everything.And that man ain’t right!!!It’s no wonder the Atlantic magazine just the other day reported that trump no longer puts himself in the same class as Washington and Lincoln. He has set his sights on Napolean, Julius Caesar, and Alexander the Great. I’m surprised Putin didn’t make the list..How about the media…our system for informing the public… the news… i hate to break it to you.. But here’s the breaking news… the news in this country is broken. Trump has cracked the code in how to hurt the press in America. He’s not only extracted big multimillion dollar settlements from ABC and CBS… just the other day he bragged on truth social about how he defunded PBS and NPR… and forced anchors and hosts out of this nation’s biggest tv networks. Trump boasted he’s gotten rid of the likes of Stephen Colbert, Lester Holt, Joy Reid, Chuck Todd, and Terry Moran. He claimed he’s somehow paved the way for one of the richest families in the world… the Ellisons.. To buy both CBS news and CNN… as well as Tik Tok. Ladies and gentlemen… the oligarchs should not own the news… in America… the news belongs to the people. So much of what makes this country so special and precious… and unique… and fragile… All of that is in danger. I don’t know how else to say this other than to state it very simply and plainly… and it’s based on my reporting that i have done as a white house correspondent and reporter covering politics back in d-c… and around the world… and that is to say this… the president of the united states represents a danger to American democracy… and therefore to the American way of life. So what do we do about it?I have described it as “the great American comeback.” Just look at these no kings protests we have seen all over this country. People taking to the streets. Making their voices heard. It’s been amazing to witness. My friends Don Lemon, Joy Reid and I have been broadcasting these demonstrations from start to finish. I’ve been out there walking with the protesters… the corporate media didn’t do that. But that’s why independent media is so important. We can deliver that kind of coverage… because it’s powered by the people. It’s powered by you.And that’s what we need now.We need people power. Sustained people power. And again… I’m letting it rip here tonight…****I came here to kick ass and eat steak… and I’m all outta steak!!!In addition to people power… we need a people’s agenda.An agenda that takes care of people again.Trump is taking care of the rich and powerful. He is lining his pockets with crypto money from god knows where.What about the people?For starters the American system of government is broken.We need reform across the board… Starting with that supreme court that gave trump immunity. That ruling needs to be overturned… but it is not going to happen overnight.But a good way to reform the court…is to place term limits on justices. Sorry Clarence Thomas…sorry clarence. The gravy train is coming to an end!!! Time to hop in that Winnebago and go on vacation.While you’re at it… add some seats to the court… how do you like that Mitch McConnell.Let’s put term limits on congress.Let’s talk about a recall option for presidents… just in case we elect somebody who is tweeting out images of himself as Jesus.Let’s talk about national health care… and breaking up big tech… and big media. Let’s invest in public media in this country. Let’s tax billionaires… and don’t forget the trillionaires like Elon Musk… yeah he’s about to be a trillionaire… and let’s spend that money on retraining workers… who are displaced by a-i… and making college… and services for our seniors more affordable.Now… if we start talking about a people’s agenda… the people in power aren’t going to like that. The oligarchs are gonna try to stop us.. Even if they send troops to the polling places… even if ice is waiting in the parking lot…. Even if trump claims it’s all gonna be rigged. And the courts are tied up in knots sorting out all of the legal challenges to the results. Don’t let them stop you. Don’t let them get in your way. You make it your job to exercise your right as an American… to march into that voting booth… and vote the bums out. I believe we are entering a decisive period in our history… where we are now all in the fight… for our civil rights… our right to vote… our right to march in the streets… our freedom of the press… these are the stakes.I don’t think the battle in this country any more is between left and right… it’s between democracy and authoritarianism… backed by the oligarchs…enforced by modern day fascists… and led by a president who doesn’t see himself on Mount Rushmore. He wants to replace Mount Rushmore. Right now… the rich and the powerful… the oligarchs are backing a man who is trying shred our constitution… right in front of our faces….Take it from the man he once called “the enemy of the people.” I don’t see the press as the enemy of the people.I see us as defenders of the people.And that’s what i want all of you to become.Defenders.Defenders… who will send a message to Washington… and to any president or politician who represents a danger to democracy and the American dream.And that message is that the great American comeback has begun. It’s going to be powered by the people…and by hope… and by the truth.And we are not backing down.We are not giving into the lies… we are not giving into the fear..We will hold on to the truth… and hopeHope. Hope.. Hope…” This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit jimacosta.substack.com/subscribe

The Jim Acosta Show is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.The Department of Homeland Security, a once critical arm of the federal government designed to protect the U.S. from terrorist attacks in the aftermath of 9/11, is now in the business of doing the terrorizing. Even during the holiday season, DHS is carrying out its extremist mission with a distinct measure of glee these days, with memes and imagery that feel borrowed from white nationalist and neo-Nazi web sites, and even some of the darkest Hitler-era propaganda of the early 20th century. No, we’ve not reached that particular hell on earth. But you can see some of it from here. Witness the latest exploits from the X account run by DHS staffers who seem to delight in celebrating the department’s heinous operations of chasing down non-criminal migrants at home and at work, often ripping apart families on the spot, while occasionally body-slamming women, and pepper spraying innocent children. DHS touts the work of its masked ICE agents with memes tying their heartlessness to the holidays. “YOU’RE GOING HO HO HOME,” reads one recent DHS X post, which features images of ICE agents in Santa hats, standing next to vehicles adorned with Christmas lights. That sickening post, which boasts nearly 10 million views, is hardly an isolated example. But it does neatly illustrate the soulless monstrosity that DHS has become. It is America’s department of homeland sadism - an agency that appears to have abandoned its origin story of protecting the public in favor of delivering cheap thrills to those who feel a sort of kinship with baby-snatching ghouls. Another recent post on the DHS X account, see above, features a grainy 1980’s game show-inspired video offering prizes of $1000 to families that self-deport. The parents and children depicted in this unfunny government spoof are, surprise, brown-skinned. The video, which is hilarious only to the barbaric DHS public information team that produced this content, offers to take care of all of the travel arrangements. The point, of course, is not the comedy. It’s the cruelty. The shameful DHS X feed does point to the arrests of alleged undocumented criminals who have been apprehended since Trump’s return to the White House. But these are individuals who would have been targeted for removal proceedings under any other Democratic or Republican administration. What the DHS X account conveniently avoids mentioning are the numerous news accounts, as of late, to report that ICE has largely scooped up non-violent offenders. “We won’t apologize for posting banger memes,” a department spokeswoman told WIRED last summer in response to a piece from the magazine on DHS’s online recruitment efforts, which included images harkening back to the nation’s brutal embrace of the idea of “manifest destiny” - a period defined by western American (white) explorers violently removing indigenous tribes from their lands. WIRED piece on DHS memesDHS Secretary Kristi Noem, whose perch atop the department is reportedly tenuous, is all-in on serving as the department’s meme queen, a cosplayer-in-chief, riding horseback in skin-tight jeans in cringey images tweeted out by her team. According to the Bulwark’s excellent immigration reporter Adrian Carrasquillo, Noem may be bucked out her saddle any day now. Virginia’s outgoing governor Glenn Youngkin could be her successor. Noem on her way out?It should be noted the department’s gaslighting goes way beyond juvenile shitposting on X. Just last month, DHS deputy assistant secretary Micah Bock, a senior department official, attempted to rewrite American history and the country’s identity by insisting in an Instagram post that the U.S. is “not a nation of immigrants.”“We are a nation of citizens,” Bock declares in the video. See below. DHS deputy secretary says America not a nation of immigrants What’s next? Stripping Emma Lazarus’s poem, “The New Colossus,” from the Statue of Liberty? Don’t give Bock any ideas. Obviously, the DHS social media propaganda machine has largely ignored the countless viral videos of women and children assaulted by ICE agents, many of which I’ve recounted on my podcast. DHS officials rarely offer any plausible explanations for the horrendous actions of ICE agents in their posts. Instead, the department leaves much of its pushback efforts to softball interviews offered up on Fox.In reality, the memes are the department’s response. Trump wants America to do more than just tolerate or even support his mass deportation atrocities. Like all of human history’s worst demagogues, he wants you to enjoy the show. In other words, the meme is the message. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit www.jimacosta.com/subscribe

Earlier in the week we tallied the views, and you guys picked the Rosie O'Donnell and Jason Isaacs interviews as your fan favorites. Fair choice. But for today, Friday? This one's on us.We're bringing back Jim's sit-down with God from ‘The God Podcast’ ( God ). And yes, it's exactly as amazing as it sounds.God absolutely destroys Trump's Bible skills - upside-down holding, butchered scripture, those Chinese-made golden Bibles. The Almighty had opinions.He calls Truth Social "Lies Social." Laura Loomer called the Pope "woke Marxist" and God was basically like "you're welcome."Plus you get to watch our favorite veteran White House correspondent nervously ask the Creator of the Universe if cursing is allowed. And you won't want to miss what happens when Duke decides to possibly make his grand entrance...Jim's relaxing somewhere, but his best (maybe his only) theological interview is right here waiting for you.Trust us on this one. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit www.jimacosta.com/subscribe

While Jim is taking some much-needed time off, our team thought this was the perfect moment to resurface one of your favorite conversations from earlier this year. Jim’s chat with Jason Isaacs struck a nerve with so many of you – and for good reason.When we first aired this interview, Jason had just wrapped his unforgettable turn as the pill-popping, spiraling dad in White Lotus, but he was here to talk about something far more serious: his film "Words of War," about murdered Russian journalist Anna Politkovskaya. What started as a conversation about Hollywood quickly became one of the most honest discussions we’ve had about the state of our democracy and the threats facing press freedom.Jason didn't hold back – as a Brit who works extensively in America, he offered the kind of outside perspective we desperately need to hear. From funding cuts to public media to the self-censorship happening in newsrooms across the country, we covered it all. And yes, we also talked about why Duke University was so mad at him for wearing their t-shirt while playing a character having a complete breakdown.The response was overwhelming. You told us this interview helped you understand why protecting independent journalism isn't just about media – it's about preserving the foundations of democracy itself.In a time when it's easier to retreat into our bubbles, Jason reminded us why it's crucial to keep speaking up, keep asking questions, and keep doing something rather than nothing.That message feels even more urgent today.

Friends,While Jim is taking some much-needed time off, we wanted to reshare one of our most popular segments that really struck a nerve with the MAGA media machine.You remember this one - Rosie O'Donnell joining us live from Dublin for our Lincoln Theatre town hall, delivering her trademark blend of humor and hard truths about what's happening to our democracy. It was powerful, it was authentic, and it drove Fox News absolutely bonkers.Here's what really gets us: On the day we held this town hall to give voice to federal workers who'd been unceremoniously fired and to discuss the very real threats to our democratic institutions, what did Fox News, the Daily Beacon, and the rest of the right-wing echo chamber choose to focus on? Not the massive government layoffs. Not the constitutional crisis unfolding before our eyes. Not the Trump-Musk power struggle that was tearing apart their own movement.No - they spent hours mocking Rosie's courage to speak truth from Ireland and ridiculing our town hall. They called it everything but newsworthy, all while ignoring the actual news breaking around them. It was a masterclass in distraction politics - attack the messenger when you can't handle the message.Rosie was fearless that night. She shared personal stories, asked tough questions about election integrity, and reminded us why comedy and truth-telling have always been essential weapons against authoritarianism. Her willingness to speak out, even from across the ocean, embodies the resistance spirit we need right now.The fact that they attacked this interview so viciously tells you everything you need to know about how effective it was. When you're catching flak, you know you're over the target.So, while Jim is recharging for the battles ahead, enjoy this reminder of what real courage looks like - and why independent media like ours drives them so crazy.Don't give in to the lies. Don't give in to the fear. Hold on to the truth. And hope.Bonus: Listen to the very end, and hear Jim really attempt to do that Irish accent. :) This is a public episode.

On Saturday you saw the stories of millions of Americans joining the No Kings Day protests in cities and towns across America. Our 3-hour live program with Don Lemon Joy-Ann Reid and Jim Acosta broadcast live on Substack and YouTube, drew hundreds of thousands of viewers and countless comments from people who attended huge events and hundreds of smaller ones around the country. Today we want to zoom in and focus our spotlight on just one of those events. In our ongoing American Voices series, we dispatched our photojournalist colleague Bethany Swain, Swain Domain to one of those smaller events to give you an idea of what your fellow Americans believe and are saying about the role of the president, the future of American democracy, and most importantly, the history of the US Army. Today's American Voices piece focuses on Annapolis, Maryland. ###You asked, we listened. A few weeks ago we asked you if you wanted to see more coverage like this American Voices pieces that Bethany put together overnight, and you responded overwhelmingly with a big yes. If you found this coverage valuable, please LIKE this video, SUBSCRIBE to the JIM ACOSTA SHOW, and the Swain Domain here on Substack, re-stack this video for your friends, and consider supporting independent media.

Here is an exclusive behind the scenes look at the Jim Acosta Show town hall that is being savagely attacked by the right wing media. See what real people, your neighbors and fellow Americans, are saying. Then ask yourself why Fox and the right wing media have spent countless hours this week trying to tear us down for holding this town hall. Why are they so worried? Is it that they don't want you to hear from the real people affected by government cuts? Do they want to silence anyone who challenges the narrative they've built up about Trump? Watch for yourself, see the truth about what is happening in Washington and then, to borrow a phrase, you decide.We highlight the diverse faces of federal workers - people who went from career federal government professionals just a few months ago to unemployment lines. Hear from a former USAID worker who was fired while on maternity leave. Shouldn't she have a voice? As part of our AMERICAN VOICES series, this piece was shot and edited by our colleague Bethany Swain at https://www.theswaindomain.com @SwainDomain , and opens with Jim hosting his Substack Live show ahead of the night's big show at the historic Lincoln Theatre on U Street in Washington, D.C. Then come with us to the green room, as Jim, Michael Fanone , and Olivia of Troye prep for the show. Special guests including Rep. Jasmine Crockett , former Capitol Hill Police Officer Harry Dunn and other January 6th police officers talk about what the night means to them. This night is about capturing and giving voice to these federal workers who took an oath to the constitution, and not to one man. These federal employees share horror stories of DOGE's random cuts, and the resulting sudden job losses, families affected by Trump's federal workforce firings, and a community coming together to fight for the America we still believe in. This is about taking a stand for democracy, the importance of not sitting on the sidelines, and as a bonus, some behind-the-scenes footage you won't see anywhere else. Make sure you watch this piece, see the town hall for yourself, see the truth, and again, you decide.Again, use your voice to tell your Senator and your member of Congress what you think. Don't sit on the sidelines, get involved, be the change. This is a public episode.

Hi friends — We're trying something new at the Jim Acosta Show this Memorial Day weekend. We sent our friend, colleague, and longtime photojournalist Bethany Swain to cover the U.S. Naval Academy graduation ceremony, where J.D. Vance was speaking to graduating Midshipmen.We wanted to amplify the voices of neighbors, friends, Academy supporters, and veterans who gathered outside the stadium in Annapolis to peacefully express their concerns about current administration policies.Please take a moment to watch the video and let us know your thoughts. We'd love to hear whether you appreciate this style of reporting and if you'd like to see more community-focused coverage like this. If you enjoy what you see, we'd be grateful if you'd subscribe to Bethany's channel and help her grow alongside us here on Substack.-Matt ##From Bethany Swain, Photojournalist, Swain Domain: On the morning of the U.S. Naval Academy graduation, a peaceful protest took place just a block from the stadium. Organized and supported by nearly a dozen groups—including the Caucus of African American Leaders, Annapolis Pride, and SURJ3A—the demonstration was not aimed at the Midshipmen, but at Vice President JD Vance, who delivered the keynote address, and the broader policies of the Trump-Vance administration.Participants—including veterans, families with young children, religious groups, librarians, and local residents, told us they gathered to defend the Constitution, express concern about threats to democracy, and oppose censorship and autocratic leadership. Handheld signs and donated banned books served as visual symbols of protest. The multiracial, multigenerational coalition emphasized unity, civic responsibility, and a shared commitment to upholding the oath that every Midshipman was taking to protect the Constitution.

My interview with Congressman Joaquin Castro on Tuesday’s program got me thinking about my father’s immigrant experience when he came to the U.S. Castro recently visited an 11 year old U.S. citizen who had been deported with her undocumented parents to Mexico. The congressman recounted the family’s story and how the parents of the girl were given the option to leave the U.S. or face separation. Which is not really a choice at all. Add to that, she is being treated for cancer and it is all the more appalling. Is that who we are as a country, Castro asked. It may be who we are now. But that has not always been the case.Some of you may have heard this before. But my dad’s story about coming to this country teaches us that America need not be the heartless and cruel place it has become since Trump returned to the White House. My dad, A.J. immigrated to the U.S. in 1962, three weeks before the Cuban Missile Crisis. He and my grandmother ended up settling in Vienna, Virginia - just outside Washington, D.C. My dad has told me about how one of his grade school teachers would pull him out of class every day to help him read and write. He likes to talk about how a presbyterian church gave him and my grandmother coats and sweaters so they could survive their first D.C. area winter. He remembers people being kind and generous. That was back in the 1960’s. That is the America he thinks about when it comes to the immigrant experience. The Trump administration which has placed cruelty first is not who we are. It is not too late to be the country we should be - a place that welcomes the newcomer, leading with the heart, not heartlessness. This is a public episode.

I traveled to Norway and found an idea for the White House Correspondents Association. The organizers of the SKUP investigative journalism conference invited me to speak about how to cover Trump. The event, complete with an awards gala, should serve as a model for the White House Correspondents Dinner. Forget about inviting Trump and other VIP’s. Just honor good journalism, hand out awards and scholarships. The Norwegians do it every year and it’s a tremendous bonding experience for the nation’s journalists. And here is the session that opened up the conference that included yours truly. Special thanks to EKKO presenter and host Jeannette Platou and Kristoffer Rønneberg, foreign correspondent for Aftenposten, along with the entire SKUP Norway team for hosting the session.

It was early March in 2007 when I received a phone call in the middle of the night. CNN’s bureau chief in New York at the time, Edith Chapin, called to deploy me to the Bronx on my first assignment as a CNN correspondent. A house fire had killed 8 children and one adult, in a four-story home shared by immigrant families. I still remember standing in the freezing cold for hours delivering one live shot after another on what was a horrific day for the borough. Mayor Bloomberg described it at the time as the city’s deadliest fire since 9/11.For the next 18 years at CNN, my cell phone was always on, ready for the next call that might send me rushing out the door to an awaiting live camera. That was the adrenaline rush of 24-hour cable news. From my brief stint in New York to the next 16 years in Washington, I covered just about everything imaginable for the network, including five presidential elections and two starkly different administrations in the White House.The highlight of my career came in March 2016, when I traveled to Cuba to cover President Obama’s historic trip to the island. During a press conference with dictator Raul Castro, I pressed Castro about his regime’s practice of jailing political prisoners. When I returned home, my father, a Cuban refugee, was beaming with pride. He was glad I asked the question. One of the lasting lessons I took from that moment was this: it’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant.In 2018, I became CNN’s Chief White House Correspondent, covering President Donald Trump, who had labeled both me and my network as “fake news” and “the enemy of the people.” I won’t delve too deeply into that period of my career now; let’s save that discussion for another time. Suffice it to say, I am proud of our work covering the first Trump administration, even as we faced death threats and relentless attacks from the President and his allies.As I detailed in my book, The Enemy of the People: A Dangerous Time to Tell the Truth in America, one deranged Trump supporter posted a threat on Twitter that included an image of a severed goat’s head. I needed bodyguards to cover Trump’s rallies. Yes, I could have stepped away from the beat, but I chose to stay until the very end, reporting from the White House on January 6th and then on Air Force One on President Biden’s Inauguration Day, the same day Trump left office in disgrace.The Trump administration and its MAGA allies made it their mission in life to run me out of town on a rail. From the suspension of my White House press pass to the relentless calls for my firing on Fox News, not to mention the continuing threat environment for me and my loved ones, it was a trying time in my life. But for me, there was always a greater purpose to the work.Trump’s attempt to overthrow the 2020 election and the resulting attack on the Capitol on January 6th gave journalists the assignment of a lifetime: the state of American democracy. I believe it is a cause greater than oneself, as one of my personal heroes, the late Senator John McCain might say.At the anchor desk, I made sure my program, “CNN Newsroom with Jim Acosta,” devoted as much airtime as possible to reporting on Trump’s assault on our elections and the destructive aftermath of his actions. Of course, we also covered the pandemic and other major news during this period, but we remained laser-focused on the democracy beat – relentless, like a pit bull on steroids. My team and I made a clear decision: the show would not pull any punches. How could we?But after two decades of service, I am leaving CNN to start a new chapter, and I won’t pull any punches this time around, either. I owe that to myself and to you. As I said during my sign off at the end of my final show on CNN…Don’t give in to the lies.Don’t give in to fear.Hold on to the truth.Hold on to hope.In the meantime…To President Trump and his allies, you may think you have silenced me. But guess again. “The Jim Acosta Show” is coming soon. Stay tuned by subscribing right here. This is a public episode.
