    Tonight, we break down the growing fallout from Donald Trump’s leadership, from rising economic anxiety to escalating global tensions and mounting questions about corruption and accountability. Gas prices are climbing, recession fears are spreading, and critics are sounding alarms over the massive $1.8 billion taxpayer-funded pool that could potentially benefit Trump allies and political loyalists. Add in the ongoing chaos surrounding Iran policy, and a lot of people are asking the same question: how much more instability can the country take? And then there’s Trump himself. After another round of rambling public remarks today, concerns about his behavior and mental sharpness are once again dominating conversation online and across the political world. We are joined by Senator Catherine Cortez Masto and Keisha Lance Bottoms! This episode is sponsored by SelectQuote.

    The Economy is in Shambles & Americans are Pissed Off!

    Don sits down with Democratic strategist and friend of the show Mike Nellis to break down the latest primary results, the fallout from Thomas Massie’s loss, and what it all says about the current state of American politics. As Donald Trump tightens his grip on the Republican Party, it is becoming clear that loyalty now matters more than principle, policy, or even basic decency. The political bar feels like it’s somewhere beneath the floorboards, and a growing number of Americans seem exhausted by the chaos, division, and nonstop outrage. Where does the country go from here, and what does a path forward actually look like? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Massie Is Out… But Trump May Have a Problem

    This morning, we break down the latest primary election results and what they reveal about Donald Trump’s tightening grip on the Republican Party. Representative Thomas Massie, a Republican who frequently aligned with Trump but broke with him on key issues, including calls for more transparency around the Epstein files, has now lost his primary. Combined with Senator Bill Cassidy losing his own race earlier, many see it as yet another sign that there’s little room left in today’s GOP for dissent. But here’s the twist: Massie and Cassidy still have time left in office, and now, with no reelection campaigns ahead of them, they arguably have far less political pressure holding them back. Could that create new problems for Trump? Could lawmakers with nothing left to lose become more willing to speak out, investigate, or push back? The power struggle inside the Republican Party is intensifying, and Trump’s efforts to consolidate control may come with consequences he didn’t expect. We are joined by National political reporter at The Bulwark, Joe Perticone. This episode is sponsored by SelectQuote.

    Donald Trump's $1.8 Billion Slush Fund Scandal Explodes!

    Tonight, we dive into the growing outrage surrounding reports of a massive $1.8 billion taxpayer-funded pool that could be used to reward Donald Trump’s political allies and inner circle. Now, reports are surfacing that some of that money could potentially be directed toward January 6 defendants and insurrectionists, raising major questions about accountability, political favoritism, and the use of taxpayer dollars. At the same time, new scrutiny is falling on the IRS after reports that claims and investigations involving Trump and his family are being slowed or blocked. The pattern is becoming impossible to ignore: one set of rules for the powerful, another for everyone else. Don is joined by Tom Nichols of The Atlantic and former DOJ Pardon Attorney and Federal Public Defender Liz Oyer to break it all down. This episode is brought to you by Lean.

    Donald Trump Is Giving Your Money to Criminals!

    Don chats with Representative Dan Goldman for a powerful conversation aboard the ferry to Ellis Island, a fitting backdrop for a discussion about immigration, identity, and what America stands for. Together, they dive into the current state of immigration policy, the role of ICE, and the growing debate around how migrants and asylum seekers are being treated in the United States today. They also discuss the controversy surrounding Trump’s $1.8 billion taxpayer-funded pool that could benefit political allies and loyalists, and what it says about the administration’s priorities. Against the backdrop of one of the most important symbols of immigration in American history, Don and Congressman Goldman reflect on who gets welcomed into America, who gets targeted, and what kind of country we want to be moving forward.

    Trump's $1.8 Billion Slush Fund Looks a Lot Like MAGA Reparations!

    This morning, we break down the massive $1.8 billion taxpayer-funded pool that critics say could be used to benefit Donald Trump’s allies, inner circle, and political loyalists. Now, reports are surfacing that some of that money could potentially go toward payments tied to January 6 defendants and insurrectionists, raising outrage and reigniting debates about accountability, political favoritism, and who government resources are really serving. At the same time, it’s impossible to ignore the deep contradiction at the center of this debate: for decades, the federal government has argued that reparations for communities harmed by systemic racism and discrimination were unrealistic or impossible. Yet now, critics say taxpayer money may be flowing toward people tied to an attack on democracy itself. Don is joined by former Capitol Police officer Michael Fanone, attorney Monique Pressley, and strategist and host of The Warning with Steve Schmidt, Steve Schmidt, to break it all down.

    Trump Drops IRS Lawsuit in Exchange For $1.7 Billion Fund for His Allies!

    Tonight, we dive into the growing controversy surrounding reports of a massive $1.7 billion pool of taxpayer money that can reportedly be used to benefit Donald Trump’s political allies and inner circle. Where is this money going, who’s benefiting from it, and why are so many people calling it a political slush fund? At a time when Americans are struggling with rising costs, economic anxiety, and fears of a recession, the optics of billions tied to political loyalty and insider influence are raising serious questions. Don is joined by political commentator and host of The David Pakman Show, David Pakman, to break down the reporting, the backlash, and what it could mean moving forward.

    Trump & MAGA's Growing Push for Christian Nationalism

    This weekend’s “Rededicate 250” prayer event was framed by supporters as a patriotic and spiritual gathering celebrating America’s founding values. But events like this are part of a broader push to blur the line between church and state and reshape American politics around a specific religious identity. Don breaks down the messaging coming from the event, the political symbolism behind it, and why so many Americans are divided over what this movement means for democracy, religious freedom, and the future direction of the country.
