Biden Takes Action on the Border
President Biden issues an executive order temporarily closing the US-Mexico border to migrants. Tommy and Addisu Demissie discuss Democratic backlash to the action and why Republicans, despite having killed a bipartisan border bill, are claiming it’s too little, too late. Donald Trump joins TikTok, attends a UFC fight, and exploits MAGA backlash to his conviction to close his fundraising gap. And Tommy sits down with Michael Tyler, Communications Director for Biden-Harris 2024, to chat about upcoming presidential debate and how Trump’s new felony status has presented challenges and opportunities for the Biden campaign.

Customer Reviews
Dismantle the FBI?
Love this podcast! Just checking, are Republicans aiming to dismantle the FBI? At a time when Russian and Chinese state-sponsored hackers have made attempts to take down our electronic infrastructure? When international criminals regularly take our corporate data hostage for millions?
Please, get the word out that Republicans intend to destroy our government and its ability to aid our safety.
Thank you so much for the amazing hard work accomplished at Crooked Media.

If SimpliSafe is so great, why is Lovett the only one who has it?
Emotionally cuckolded propaganda
Can you imagine hating your own country as much as the producers of this train wreck of a podcast? Laughable.
