• Trump's Epstein cover is blown

  This is the story that Trump just can’t escape. The White House has pushed back after reports that the President was told in May that he was among hundreds of names mentioned in the Epstein Files. As the pressure mounts, and Trump’s attempts to deflect the story fail, can he ‘fake news’ his way out of it? Or could the MAGA faithful finally turn on the President?

• Could Ghislaine Maxwell walk free?

  For the last two weeks, Donald Trump has been trying to make the Epstein story go away after he claimed there were no missing files and there was nothing more to see. Now, Ghislaine Maxwell - the former partner of Jeffrey Epstein, and the only person to serve jail time for his crimes - has been summoned to a meeting with the US justice department. Why? What information could she offer up that she hasn’t before? Do they want her to name names? Or take Trump’s name out of the frame? And might she walk free if she does? Later, the broadcaster and journalist Mehdi Hasan found himself in a room with self described fascists. Young American men that want him deported. He joins us to tell us what happened next.

• Are Gazans starving so that Netanyahu can survive?

  “Let them eat burgers“ - Israel’s PM Netanyahu has popped up on a Canadian fratcast talking about his favourite fast food and weighing up the merits of the Double Whopper. Across the border, Gazans are starving to death - UN estimates suggest a thousand have been shot in the meagre food distribution queues. Many more are facing malnutrition and critical levels of hunger. We keep being told that 80 percent of Israelis are against the war - so why hasn’t it stopped? We speak to Ayala Panievsky.Later, Hunter Biden rants at George Clooney and Barack Obama’s team for trying to bring his father down. It’s a three hour long interview. An act of loyalty? Or stupidity?And, why is Nigel Farage providing the most memorable moment of the Tory reshuffle?The News Agents is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/
