In today's episode of "The Real Story," Dr. Phil calls out a US Senator for his reckless media rant and, even worse, the network news anchors who let him ramble, not once questioning his absurd accusations that Trump and Musk are turning America into an arm of the Kremlin.

We’ll tackle one of the most heated debates in sports —should transgender athletes be allowed to compete in women’s sports? 

The conflict over whether transgender athletes should be allowed to compete in women’s sports has sparked controversy in locker rooms, courtrooms, and even the White House. President Trump’s latest executive order is shaking up the rules, the battle lines are drawn even deeper. We’ll talk to a former college star athlete whose team lost when faced with a trans opponent, a transgender activist who believes it’s a transperson’s right to compete in sports that align with their new identity and a transwoman, against trans athletes participating in women’s sports who says she’s proof trans women have an advantage over biological women. This is more than just policy—it’s an urgent conversation about real people, real struggles, and the fight for understanding, respect, and fairness.
