The Calm Before The Blue Storm + A Conversation With Lev Parnas

Today on Mea Culpa, I’m joined by my good friend Lev Parnas, a Soviet-born businessman and former associate of Rudy Giuliani who, like me, is determined to speak out against Trump and warn of the threat he poses to our country. With only one day until the election, we expose Trump’s tactics and cover the Republican Party’s reliance on conspiracies, the dangers of billionaire apathy, and the potential consequences for democracy if Trump wins in 2024. We delve into Trump’s authoritarian approach, from his violent, divisive rhetoric aimed at opponents like Liz Cheney and General Mark Milley to his cult-like influence, especially over young followers. Lev draws connections between Trump’s behavior and that of historical authoritarian figures, stressing the urgency of safeguarding our democracy.

What’s Next Might Shock You + A Conversation With Wajahat Ali

Today on Mea Culpa, I’m joined by Wajahat Ali, columnist, public speaker, author of Go Back to Where You Came From: And Other Helpful Recommendations on How to Become American, and co-host of the Democracy-Ish podcast, to discuss the recent Presidential election results. We examine the factors behind Trump’s unexpected victory, from the GOP’s powerful media network to grievance-based messaging. Ali critiques Democrats’ coordinated strategy, while figures like Joe Rogan and Elon Musk rallied young people, fostering an 'us vs. them' culture. Together, we dissect Trump’s lasting appeal despite his divisive, authoritarian tactics and warn of the dangers his consolidation of power poses for free speech, minority rights, and judicial independence. We stress the urgent need for resistance and the media’s role in safeguarding democratic values.

King Donald Is Going Down + A Conversation With Harry Litman

Join me and Harry Litman on today’s episode of Mea Culpa. Litman, a former U.S. Attorney, Deputy Assistant Attorney General, law professor, and legal commentator, is also the creator and host of the Talking Feds podcast. We dive into Trump’s authoritarian tactics, his divisive rhetoric, and how these influence public opinion leading up to the election. Litman highlights Trump’s appeal to the religious right and his strategy of framing the election as a loyalty test for groups like Jews and evangelicals. Together, we examine Trump’s use of dehumanizing language, conspiracy theories, and inflammatory remarks on mass deportations to mobilize his base. With only five days until the election, we discuss the risks of potential violence and emphasize the critical importance of strong voter turnout to protect democratic values.

The Rise of Autocracy

The autocrats of the world are on the rise and one party in America seems more than happy to join their club. We need a resurgence of democracy, not only at home but around the world or those who would seek to sink the west will finally succeed and the values and human rights that we have come to take for granted will be a thing of the past. Stick with me, so you know where we are and we can point our way in a better direction. I say all of this not to upset you, but to prepare you. We have to accept the reality of the problem if we’re going to have the courage to solve the problem. We will either be the heroes of democracy or the victims of its demise. The choice is ours.

As the trial begins, Donald von ShitzInPantz better stock up on Imodium and Gas-X + A Conversation with Tony Schwartz

We welcome back to the show, Tony Schwartz. A former columnist for The New York Post, and associate editor at Newsweek, he was also a reporter for The New York Times, and staff writer at New York Magazine and Esquire. In 1985, Schwartz began interviewing Donald Trump to ghostwrite Trump: “The Art of the Deal” for which he was given co-author credit. Art of the Deal was published in 1987 and some say it’s what sold Trump to the public as a successful businessman. Tony is here today to talk about how Trump ticks and just how traumatizing his current legal predicaments are bound to be. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
