    It's Thursday and you are listening to The Majority Report On today's program: Donald Trump's financial disclosure shows that he has raked in more than $2B in his first year in office. The report reveals that Trump made thousands of stock trades last year. Elizabeth Vargas from News Nation tries to get Rep. Mike Lawler to admit that it is not acceptable for Trump to use his office to earn billions while most Americans are living paycheck-to-paycheck. Lawler does his best to avoid the line of questioning. Rep. Troy Nehls (R-TX) mocks the affordability crisis in America by saying he is spending the fourth eating lobster tails and ribeye's. Nehls went further saying that people who are poor just don't work as hard as he does. Denver based journalist David Sirota, founder and editor of The Lever, joins the program to reflect on this week's Colorado primary. Oliver Larkin, DSA-backed candidate running against incumbent Rep. Jared Moskowitz in Florida's 25 congressional district, joins the program to discuss his platform and campaign. If you are able to donate to Larkin's campaign you can do so here. In the Fun Half: Brandon Sutton and Matt Binder join the show. Donald Trump has a conversation with an AI Teddy Roosevelt and the president definitely thought he was talking to the ghost of Teddy. Later at the same Teddy Roosevelt event in North Dakota, Trump says he wants to have a threesome with his two beautiful sons. Abdul El-Sayed is interviewed by Dave Weigel for Semafor where El-Sayed has strong words for his bought-and-sold opponents in the primary as well as his potential GOP opponent in the general election. Mallory McMorrow fails at generating tears as she tries to convey sadness about the "actions in the Middle East" tearing us apart at home. Former NYC mayor Bill De Blasio stands by Darializa Avila Chevalier while appearing on Hannity, sending Sean Hannity into hissy fit. All that and more.

    Welcome back to The Majority Report On today's program: Melat Kiros wins the Democratic primary for Colorado's 1st congressional district, unseating a 30-year incumbent in Diane DeGette. Kiros is the third Democratic Socialist to beat a House incumbent in this year's primary cycle. Abdul El-Sayed says in an interview that if one cannot define the systematic slaughter of tens of thousands of children as a genocide then they have no credibility when they claim to be a defender of human rights. Elie Mystal, columnist and justice correspondent at The Nation, joins the program for a conversation about the recent slew of absurd Supreme Court rulings. In the Fun Half: Comedian Tim Heidecker joins the program. We look at the Great American State Fair Abe Lincoln impersonator and it's not great.

    3677 - SCOTUS Upholds Birthright Citizenship; Trump Bored by Housing Bill; Big Colorado Primaries

    It's News Day Tuesday on The Majority Report On today's program: Please consider phone banking for progressive Colorado candidates Melat Kiros and Julie Gonzalez  Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA) reacts to the Supreme Court upholding birthright citizenship. Donald Trump is so bored by the affordable housing bills. The president said anything other than the SAVE act is a "yawn". Rep. Randy Fine says he is against the housing bill because it is bipartisan. The large representative said he did not come to DC to work with Democrats. In the Fun Half: We continue our coverage from yesterday on the Great American State Fair. Highlights include a man gagging through a pancake eating contest, fabulous right-wing podcaster Michael Knowles debating a child over the Salem Witch Trials and a MAGA streamer arrested for committing lewd acts while watching acrobatics. In response to the recent DSA candidates' primary victories, 13 centrist Democrats sign the moderates' "Promise to America". Sam reads through the "promise", and the only direct mention of policy is about balancing the budget and everything else is just empty calories. An advisor to former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz, Bill Burton says, "politics is broken and maybe we need a solution to it that risks the imagination of a new kind of possibility." $100 to anyone who can explain what Burton is trying to say. Greg Gutfeld tries to explain socialism to his geriatric viewers. All that and more.

    3676 - How Protest Became Terrorism; Supreme Court Run Amok w/ Sufia Khalid, Chris Geidner

    It's Fun Day Monday on The Majority Report On today's program: ABC's Jonathan Karl tells Mayor Zohran Mamdani that the Republicans will make him the face of the Democratic party to which Mamdani responds with, "let them". The mayor then lists all of the accomplishments of his administration - a list that would be impressive for an entire term, let alone in just under 7 months in office. Jen Psaki asks Rep. AOC to respond to Sen. Elissa Slotkin's call for the need for change in Democratic leadership. Cortez says that if elected officials are going to call for change, then they need to elaborate on what kind of change they're talking about. Do you want the party to be abashedly working class or do you want to deepen the ties between he parties and its corporate donors. Speaker of the House Mike Johnson holds a press conference where he reads the platform of the Democratic Socialists of America. Speaker Johnson fails at fear mongering as the platform sounds reasonable and includes some ideas that even conservatives would agree with. We are joined by Sufia Khalid, deputy director of the National Security Criminal Defense Center at the Muslim Legal Fund of America and an attorney for one of the Prairieland Nine—a group of anti-ICE protesters in Texas who were sentenced to 30 to 100 years in prison after federal prosecutors accused them of being an "antifa terror cell." Chris Geidner, journalist and publisher of the Law Dork newsletter, joins the program to discuss the past week's Supreme Court rulings. In the Fun Half: If one throws a Great American 250 State Fair in the Mall of DC but no one is around to see it, did it really happen? Fox News says that thousands of people are participating but unfortunately the camera shows that there aren't even hundreds of people at the fair. Meanwhile down the street from the fair at the reflecting pool the National Guard is patrolling for loiters as a recorded announcement warns people to keep it moving. Rep. Thomas Massie is stopped on the street by a Fox digital reporter and asked about some of his scandals to which Massie responds by calling the reporter gay. Senator Ted Cruz says that antisemitism is a gateway drug to anticapitalism. Renowned idiot Dave Smith blames the Iran war's historic unpopularity for the rise in socialism. All that and more.

    It's Casual Friday on The Majority Report On today's program: Zohran Mamdani delivers on two of his biggest campaign promises. The NYC mayor has secured $1.2B in funding to expand universal childcare from 2,000 seats to 12,000. Additionally, the NYC Rent Board has voted to freeze the rent on rent-controlled apartments - this applies to over a million apartments throughout the five boroughs. Megyn Kelly celebrates the Supreme Court revoking Temporary Protection Status from at least 350,000 refugees from Haiti and Syria with a racist rant. Ta-Nehisi Coates, author and journalist, joins the program for a conversation about his piece in Vanity Fair: "Did Kamala Harris' Silence on Gaza Cost Her the White House?" In the Fun Half: Governor of Pennsylvania Josh Shapiro warns the DSA candidates that won their primaries that they won't be able to just engage in "performative politics" and eventually will have to deliver on their promises. Rep. Tom Suozzi goes on Fox News to "push back" against Mamdani's endorsed candidates. We take a look at some of our favorite right-wing podcasters, Jillian Michaels, Dave Rubin and Tim Pool, reacting to the primaries in New York. All that and more.

    3674 - How NYC DSA Won; Junk Fees Hit Tenants w/ Grace Mausser, Gustavo Gordillo, Tracie McMillan

    It's an Emmajority Report Thursday on The Majority Report On today's program: Hakeem Jeffries tries to downplay the genocide's role played in motivating voters to support DSA-aligned candidates in Tuesday's primaries by touting pro-genocide Rep. Ritchie Torres' landslide victory over an anti-genocide candidate. Jeffries implies that Israel's genocide is a wealthy voter issue whereas working class people are not interested in that issue which is in direct contrast with polling data. DSA co-chairs Grace Mausser and Gustavo Gordillo join the program to reflect on Tuesday's huge victories in New York City. Tracie McMillan, journalist and author, joins the program to discuss her pieces published in The Guardian US on property management companies pillaging renters through absurd fees; 'Extremely overwhelmed': apartment renters face rising tide of fees and US renters call for action to combat surge of 'take it or leave it' apartment fees In the Fun Half: Brand Sutton and Matt Binder join. Morning Joe Scarborough claims to be fed up with false accusations of antisemitism towards voters and politicians who take a stand on Israel's genocide. The message is slightly refreshing although three years late and ignorantly focused exclusively on Benjamin Netanyahu. Dana Bash tries to corner Morris Katz by saying why is AIPAC is so important to voters and not other sources of dark money. Katz argues that crypto and private equity get the same attention as AIPAC. Katz adds in regard to AIPAC that if people see you abandon one group, they know it's only a matter of time before they abandon their group. Claire Valdez is asked on CNN if she can fit within the same tent as other Democrats like John Fetterman and Josh Gottheimer.  Valdez responds by saying that the Democratic base disagrees with Fetterman and Gottheimer and they would be wise to listen to the people who put them in their offices. Candace Owens is now claiming to have memory holed the months following Charlie's death which conveniently allows her to "recover" conversations from that time regarding Erika Kirk. Kooooooooky.

    3673 - DSA and Zohran Shock Dem Party Machine w/ Morris Katz

    Welcome back to The Majority Report On today's program: The DSA slate wins the New York Democratic primaries in a sweep. Zohran Mamdani delivers a powerful speech at Claire Valdez's election party. A DSA chair tells Hasan Piker on his stream that his phone banking drive on behalf of Darializa Avila Chevalier yesterday identified 2,000 voters which is essentially the margin of victory. Centrist Dem consultant Neera Tanden tries to pump the brakes on the DSA's victory by saying it won't work in rural states. I guess she hasn't heard of Graham Platner. Political strategist Morris Katz, who served as Zohran Mamdani's lead media strategist for his mayoral campaign, joins us to take a victory lap after the huge DSA win last night. We end the free half by taking a look at some of the best centrist Dem meltdowns over the primaries. In the Fun Half: We take a look at a few GOP meltdowns over the NY primaries. The featured ghouls include Stephen Miller, Sean Hannity, David Frum and more. Ta-Nehisi Coates on The Bulwark podcast with Tim Miller reflects on his decision to advocate for Kamala Harris in the 2024 election. Dan Goldman is asked why he thinks he lost to Brad Lander and he responds with "Trump is bad" nonsense. Dave Rubin is offended that his favorite actor John C. Reilly believes that empathy is a superpower. All that and more.
