Tucker Goes Full Putin
Tucker Carlson goes full Putin. Never go full Putin. The Georgia state legislature is trying to pass legislation undermining District Attorney Fani Willis. Will they succeed in undermining the looming Trump indictment? Tennessee lawmakers ban drag shows. What can we do to fight back against such blatant bullying? Then, GOP states are pulling out of a critical interstate voting consortium. That may seem boring, but this could have massive implications for future elections. Finally, we’ll talk about a few lowlights from the CPAC conference, including a DailyWire host who called for transgenderism to be eradicated. Jason and Ravi discuss all of that and more on this episode of Majority 54!

The GOP’s New Benghazi
The FBI and Department of Energy now believe COVID was the result of a lab leak in China. Republicans are now running with this, claiming a liberal media conspiracy and cover-up. Are they right? We’ll talk about what we know, who screwed up, and point out a few inconvenient facts for the GOP. Biden’s student loan relief has landed in front of the Supreme Court. What can we glean from oral arguments? Is the relief program in trouble? Oh, and of course we have some GOP on GOP infighting, once again checking in with the ongoing imbroglio between DeSantis and Trump.

Trump’s Looming Indictments
A seismic indictment in Georgia? The special grand jury foreperson is sharing snippets of information that make Trump and everyone in his orbit nervous. Then, internal Fox messages released in the $1.6 billion Dominion defamation case show the network’s hosts internally knew trump was lying despite continuing to spread those lies. Will Fox’s viewers finally realize the contempt the network has for them? Finally, President Joe Biden visited Ukrainian President Zelenskyy in Ukraine. It should be a reason for all Americans to come together and applaud the president — but of course the right couldn’t even do that. Jason and Ravi break down all this and more on this episode of Majority 54! To watch episodes of Majority 54 on YouTube, go to YouTube.com/MeidasTouch.

Customer Reviews
Love The Podcast Audio Quality Had Dropped
Ever since the switch over to meidastouch the audio quality is not as great which is kind of a problem considering it’s a podcast. It’s glitchy sounding with little pops at times. Their voices are also much more boomy in my car which makes it harder to listen to.
I also miss when you would come back and address people’s comments/concerns on past episodes.
But again, still enjoy listening.
Boring and slow
This show moves very slowly which makes it boring and not very interesting. Also, the insights are nothing new.
Still like the show but…
I am wondering if you will still have guests and hope so. Although I am always up for criticizing the MAGA folks, I have enjoyed the times that you challenged me to understand and consider other points of view. Feels like with the new format, it’s a lot of brain “candy” and not enough “vegetables”
