Fun Half link: https://youtube.com/live/DoFQZw-geTc It's Thursday which means it is an Emmajority Report Day. We start the show with the Senate Rescissions bill that passed in the wee hours last night. PBS, NPR and USAID are now defunded. We are joined by Policy Director of Defending Rights & Dissent, Chip Gibbons, to discuss Trump's war on free speech, specifically around Palestinian activism. Then we are joined by Ren Brabenec to talk about his piece in the Tennessee Lookout that covers Elon Musk's unpermitted Ai data center that is causing massive environmental damage in Memphis. In the fun half we are joined by Brandon Sutton and Matt Binder as we continue the coverage of the Epstein caused MAGA / Trump fissure. Charlie Kirk's gaslight's his fans and they are furious. We close out by enjoying Ben Shapiro's review of Superman. It's as bad as you imagine it to be. All that and more plus phone calls.

Despite Emma's absence, it's hump day Wednesday and there's a lot to talk about. Inflation is slowly starting to rise to its highest number since February. The effects of these tariffs will be rearing their head eventually. Award winning Israeli journalist, Meron Rapaport joins us for a discussion on Gaza and the West bank and Israel's attempt to alienate and expel Arab Knesset members. Hakeem Jeffries is still refusing to endorse Zohran Mandani even though he won Hakeem's district decisively. In the Fun Half we open with a real time twitter feud between Matt and a journalist from The Free Beacon or something. Matt cooks him. Trump turns on his own base over the Epstein files. This story is not going anywhere anytime soon. Meanwhile, despite all of the tragic SCOTUS rulings, the horrible budget bill, the mass firings of federal employees, the dismantling of the Department of Education, according to CNN the Democrats are in a worse position for the midterms than at this same point in 2017 or 2005. All that and more plus phone calls.

Tue, 15 July 2025
It's Tuesday and we are joined by investigative journalist and director of The Undercurrent , Lauren Windsor, to discuss her new piece in Rolling Stone on the Texas state government's war on climate change policy. But first we take a look at Andrew Cuomo's low energy announcement that he is staying in the race as an independent, a very sleepy independent. It turns out that the supreme court green lighting mass federal firings will lead to the Trump administration dismantling the Department of Education. Something conservatives have been clamoring for since reconstruction. In the fun half we look into the great MAGA Saga. The conservative world is fracturing over Trump's refusal to release the Epstein files. House GOP's vote against unsealing the documents, Glenn Beck suggests finding a fall guy, Charlie Kirk trust his friends in the government but the MAGA base as reflected in comments on Trump's Truth Social page are not buying it. All this and more plus your phone calls.

It's Monday, and we've got two great guests lined up. But first, we watch Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-FL) recount his gut-wrenching visit to what he calls the "Alligator Auschwitz." Then we’re joined by Wesley Cheek, assistant professor at Massachusetts Maritime Academy, to discuss the deep-rooted corruption and dysfunction within FEMA. Later, Chris Geidner of Law Dork returns to break down the latest Supreme Court rulings—and the nine-mile stare worn by everyone seriously covering this administration. In the Fun Half We kick things off with possibly the least fun person alive, Tom Homan, as he backpedals on what qualifies as "reasonable suspicion. In Hakeem Jeffries' interview with Punchbowl News, he appears to spread the false claim that Zohran Mamdani called to "Globalize the Intifada." We revisit the Bulwark episode where the smear originated—and confirm Mamdani never said any such thing. Also, so what if he did? All that, plus your IMs and a whole lot more.

Missouri revokes a very popular paid sick leave law that passed at around 60%. All that, a whole lot more plus your phone calls.

It's Monday and we are celebrating Emma's return from her honeymoon. On today's show we cover the devastation from flash flooding in central Texas. We continue to dig deeper in the SENR Bill. It will take a month to sort through this monstrous piece of legislation. In the fun half we listen to the least fun person in the world, Border Czar Tom Holman as he foams at the mouth over the funding that ICE and CBP secured. Joe Rogan is surprised and disappointed over who ICE is targeting. It's not as if mass deportations now was a campaign slogan or anything. All that plus phone calls.

It's a casual Friday on a Thursday and the disastrous Senate bill passed somehow despite Chuck Schumer's renaming. Our favorite, Heather 'Digby' Parton joins us today for a recap of the week's news. In the Fun Half Matt Binder and Brandon Sutton join for further discussion of the bill. We watch Jimmy Dore tackle climate change by discussing an article in the Washington Post that he didn't read, instead getting his info from Joe Rogan who is also discussing the article that he did not read.

It's hump day and everything is fine because Chuck Schumer got the bill's name changed! That'll show 'em. Way to go Cuck (sic). Today we are joined by Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers. With 1.8 million members, the AFT is one the largest public employee unions in the country. Randi talks about the need to fight this bill and administration now and how dangerous of a tactic it is to sit on our hands and wait for the midterms. Sen Murkowski from Alaska sells out working-class people across the country for some cheap harpoons. In the fun half we check in with our old friends Dave Rubin and Joe Rogan as they each continue to outdo themselves in displays of public stupidity. All that plus phone calls and a whole lot more.

Fun Half link: https://youtube.com/live/vxQtp_sUyNo The SENR Bill passed this morning, and we are still wading through the muck David Dayen joins us to help in the aforementioned muck wading. In the fun half we watch some more of Zohran's masterful answers to insane lines of questioning. Tim Pool calls out the Sam for being a little guy who is also the biggest fish in a small pond, or something? I think the summer beanie is dehydrating the pool. All that plus phone calls and a whole lot more.

It's Monday and the GOPs in Congress have been pulling all-nighters in an attempt to pass the SENR Bill and complete the largest upwards transfer of wealth in the nation's history As the legislative branch works their magic math to kill as many poor people as possible the Judicial branch has been doing much of the same.

It’s Emancipation Thursday. On today’s show we watch archival news footage covering the passing of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and discuss the deterioration of that landmark legislation. Meanwhile, the Iran war drums beat louder. Trump does a 180 on his supposed “anti-war” position as the same old Military Industrial Complex arguments used for Iraq are recycled. We chat with Michael Carroll from the Wilderness Foundation about the proposed massive sell of public lands in the SENR Bill. For info on how to contact your Senator regarding this check out https://www.wilderness.org/ ICE arrests a Spanish language journalist in Atlanta for “being in the road”. In the Fun Half, Matt Binder and Brandon Sutton join us as we watch Tucker Carlson, doing his best William F.

Wed, 18 June 2025
Another busy day in the derailed circus train that is Trump's administration. On today's show, Tucker Carlson humiliates Ted Cruz into admitting that the US is involved in Israel’s war in Iran.

An interview with California AG Rob Bonta, who details multiple lawsuits against Trump’s attempts to deploy federal troops in LA and coerce states on immigration enforcement. The show closes with breaking news of NYC Comptroller Brad Lander’s arrest by federal agents at an immigration court—a troubling sign of ICE’s expanding power.

Mon, 16 June 2025
Veeeeery busy day for us at the Majority Report today, with a new front of Israel's military rampage opening up with Iran, Donald Trump holding what turned out to be a rinky dinky military parade, political assassinations in Minnesota, No Kings protests across the country, and AOC and Zohran holding a joint rally in NYC. We get to all of that today, plus a great interview with Stephen Wertheim from the American Statecraft Program at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace on Israel's provocations against Iran and how to parse out Trump's strategy (if we can even call it that). Follow Stephen on X here: https://x.com/stephenwertheim In the Fun Half, AOC takes the stage to a huge crowd at her joint rally with Zohran Mamdani and points out that many of the establishment Dems who called for Cuomo's resignation as governor are now lining up behind his run for mayor. She says this is just one more reason why the country needs to turn the page on the gerontocracy currently at the helm of both major parties. Republican Senator Mike Lee irresponsibly tweets out that the Minnesota gunman who shot four people killing two of them, including a Democratic state lawmaker of being a Marxist, while his roommate says he was a regular listener of Alex Jones' Infowars who was a Trump supporter. Tim Pool weighs in to the new war Israel has launched against Iran and what Donald Trump's role might have been. But boy does it seem like he has stacked his panel with a bunch of people who will make points on his behalf so he can avoid going on the record during such a sensitive matter. Netanyahu on the other hand is trying to justify why he's provoked a war with Iran by telling Americans that he's doing it for our safety. CNN for it's part points out that Iran has targeted Mossad's HQ, which is right in the middle of a highly populated part of Tel Aviv. Does that sound familiar?

It's Casual Friday, and it is so casual that we have pre-taped today's show Thursday evening in order to attend Emma's wedding. Sam starts off by discussing the implications of Senator Alex Padilla being man-handled and handcuffed by federal agents while trying to ask DHS Secretary Kristi Noem. He gets further into that and Donald Trump's propensity to politicizing the military with The Nation's Jeet Heer. Check out Jeet's writing and podcasting here: https://www.thenation.com/authors/jeet-heer/ After that, we take a look at Donald Trump's changing tune on immigration enforcement. Apparently famers and business owners in the "leisure industry" have managed to get Trump's ear, because he's suddenly concerned that rounding up and deporting vital workers in those industries is bad for business. Who'da thought?!?! Donald Trump is having a big bad birthday party on Saturday featuring tanks and planes and all sorts of military toys for the birthday boy, but he has an ominous warning for anyone planning to protest that day. If you do want to protest that day however, check out one near you at https://www.nokings.org/ and stay safe!

Thu, 12 June 2025
It's a Matt-jority top of the show today, with Sam joining a little later with an interview with Slate's Mark Joseph Stern about the goings on at the Supreme Court. The Trump administration is taking it's assault on democracy to the court, and there are several important cases we all need to be keeping an eye on. Check out Mark's reporting here: https://slate.com/author/mark-joseph-stern After that in the Fun Half, it's Matt, Brandon and Russ, and honestly Zohran might as well be here as well because we soak in a few of his hot clips from his appearance on the Breakfast Club. After that, Jim Cramer is stroking it to AI and Sam Altman and their dystopian and dishonest vision for the future. Yucky.

Wed, 11 June 2025
It's an Emmajority Wednesday (I know, we're as confused as you are) and we have two great guests for you today. First, we cover Donald Trump's ominous threats to protesters who are upset about ICE raids in Los Angeles and around the country. After that, Emma talks to journalist and author Omar El Akkad about his new book "One Day Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This" which reckons with the failure and refusal of the West to stop the ongoing genocide in Gaza. Get Omar's book here: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/777485/one-day-everyone-will-have-always-been-against-this-by-omar-el-akkad/ And later we're joined by New York City Council member Chi Ossé about Zohran Mamdani's exciting political campaign, the left's momentum in America's biggest city and the how we can fight for affordable housing while protecting vulnerable communities. Follow him on social media, he's always putting out great stuff, and learn more about Zohran Mamdani's campaign and how you can get involved here: https://www.zohranfornyc.com/ In the Fun Half, we check in on the ruptured bromance between Donald Trump and Elon Musk. Musk is trying to play cute but Trump doesn't seem like he wants to get back together at this point. The White House Press Secretary said they acknowledge Elon's recent statement but that's about it. Lol. Greta Thunberg has been released from Israeli detention, though two of her fellow activists from the flotilla, Thiago Avila and Rema Hassan have apparently been transferred to Israeli prisons where they are in solitary confinement. Greta tells reporters that the very least countries like hers can do now is advocate for an end to the genocide and to recognize Palestine as a state. We're glad she's safe, but Dave Portnoy certainly isn't. He joked about wanting to blow up her ship with a missile, though he's also gotten very touchy about jokes that target Jewish people, while he himself continues to make antisemitic jokes.

Tue, 10 June 2025
It's Newsday Tuesday™ with the MR crew and we'll be digging into the Trump administration's deployment of federal troops to Los Angeles amid protests over ICE raids there. Pete Hegseth tries to justify why federal troops are in LA during a House Appropriations subcommittee hearing by pushing falsehoods about both the situation on the ground, the state and local response and federal policies involving the deployment of troops. Meanwhile, National Guardsmen are sleeping on the floor in their uniforms because the hap-hazard nature of this whole operation. California's governor Gavin Newsom for his part says he's going to be suing the Trump administration over it's actions and points out that because of these deployments other important efforts like fire safety are being compromised. Donald Trump says that Greta Thunberg should take anger management classes after her peaceful humanitarian flotilla to Gaza was detained in international waters by the Israeli military. Russell Brand, who is looking more ridiculous with each passing day, mocks Greta and is seemingly upset that unlike him she actually acts based on her convictions. In the Fun Half, Chuck Todd talks to Steve Bannon, who is openly questioning whether Elon Musk ever should have had classified clearances that aren't even granted to weapons contractors like Boeing and Lockheed Martin. Scott Galloway also gets in on the beat down on Musk, though he sort of misses the key point which is that Musk (or any individual for that matter) should hold that much power. And we check in on Ezra Klein, who's taken to the pages of his local paper the New York Times to further make the case for the Abundance Agenda. We also take some calls from listeners. Tune in!

Mon, 9 June 2025
It's Monday! At the top of the show we discuss the Trump administration's deployment of the national guard to LA amid protests over ICE raids there. After that, Sam and Emma welcome Eddie Fishman to discuss his book author Chokepoints: American Power in the Age of Economic Warfare. Get your copy of his book here: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/726149/chokepoints-by-edward-fishman/ In the Fun Half, the Israeli military has detained the 12 activists from the Gaza freedom flotilla and is forcing them to watch videos from October 7th for some reason. We hear part of an interview Abby Martin did with one of the Madleen's crew members Thiago Da Vila. In Tel Aviv, thousands turned out for a protest holding pictures of kids who have been killed in Gaza since October 7th. After that, White House Jack-of-all-trade Stephen Miller is now doing economic analysis of the Big Beautiful Bill.

Fri, 6 June 2025
It's Casual Friday my friends, and boy do we have a lot to celebrate. Elon Musk and Donald Trump are having an ugly public break up and we are here for it. Bit what does all this mean for Trump's Big Beautiful Bill? Heather "Digby" Parton is here to help us break it all down. Check out Digby's column at Salon: https://www.salon.com/writer/heather_digby_parton As well as her blog Digby's Hullabaloo: https://digbysblog.net/ In the Fun Half, Republican Senator James Lankford says that that the Big Beautiful Bill will move millions of people from Medicare to employee-funded health care. Hmm, we weren't aware that this huge tax cut for rich people that guts the social safety net is also a job creator. It's a head scratcher. After that, Donald Trump seems to suggest that the Nazis are still in power in Germany. He tells the German chancellor that D-Day must be a bad day for Germany, because, you know, it was huge turning point in the defeat of Hitler's dictatorship. And a former denouncer of Andrew Cuomo who is also running against him in the NYC mayor's race has had a change of heart and is now endorsing him. Don't rank Jessica Ramos NYC folks! And James Carville has a strange bit of commentary on Jewish donors to political campaigns.

Thu, 5 June 2025
Happy Emmajority Report Thursday to all who celebrate! As if that wasn't enough, it's also AOC endorses Zohran Day, which comes the day after Zohran wipes the floor with Andrew Cuomo Day. We needed to bask in the glory at the top of the show and damn it felt good. After that, Emma talks to Trita Parsi, the executive vice president of the Quincy Institute. He’s also the author of four books on US foreign policy in the Middle East, with a particular focus on Iran and Israel and him and Emma go over the latest on the Gaza and U.S. - Iran negotiations. We're joined as always by Matt Binder and Brandon Sutton in the Fun Half, where we check in on the relationship between Elon Musk and Donald Trump. Looks like it's on the rocks at the moment. Ro Khanna says it's an opportunity to ally with Musk (but he's wrong). The centrists have gathered for their answer to burning man, WelcomeFest, which featured a lot of discussion about the Abundance Agenda™ and wouldn't you know it, Josh Barro tells Richie Torres that when you look at the impediments to progress you usually find a labor union. Kind of illuminating for once to hear an Abundance Bro admit they are on the side of capital. We also take some calls. Tune in!

Wed, 4 June 2025
It's an Sam Solo Wednesday, and we have the latest on the Big Beautiful Bill inching its way through Congress. Some of the cuts will impact federally-backed science institutions, including weather monitoring. Florida meteorologist John Morales tells his viewers on air that he doesn't think he'll be able to predict the paths of hurricanes this season as he has in previous years because of the defunding of vital monitoring institutions. Scary. After that we have two great guests. First, Sam speaks to Wired senior writer Makena Kelly about Doge and Elon Musk's lingering impact on the government, as well as Palantir and it's role in government surveillance. Check out her reporting here: https://www.wired.com/author/makena-kelly/ After that Sam spoke to San Diego journalist Roberto Camacho to discuss his reporting in Bolts on a grass root organization dedicated to monitoring ICE and protecting immigrant communities. Check out his his piece here: https://boltsmag.org/how-volunteer-patrols-are-working-to-protect-san-diego-immigrant-communities-from-ice/ Follow Roberto on social media here: Twitter/IG/Threads: @rob_camacho_sd Bluesky: @robcamachosd.bsky.social In the Fun Half™, Elon Musk is now publicly poo poo-ing the Big Beautiful Bill which he thinks is bloated. Takes one to know one bud. As Sam points out, maybe it has something to do with how the bill would effect his bottom line. Patrick Bet-David and crew however are defending Trump, and Musk's drug use. They're in a tough spot these days. Alex Jones is going out of his way to defend Palantir. Gee, I wonder why? And for his part, Richie Torres is defending the Abundance Agenda. Go figure.

Tue, 3 June 2025
It's Newsday Tuesday™ folks. We've got the latest Trump's Big Beautiful Bill, as well as Chuck Schumer's efforts to fight it. Wait, no, Chuck Schumer seems instead focused on goading Trump into a war with Iran. Go figure. He also opposed the Obama nuclear deal when it was being negotiated back in 2015, despite that it was arguably the Democratic president's most important foreign policy achievement. The Anti Defamation League's Jonathan Greenblatt is once again going after Hasan Piker for criticizing Israel's genocide in Gaza. And Fox News is waging a war on Miss Rachel with a horrible song, saying that Mr. Rodgers would never opine on politics, despite that he very famously advocated for de-segregation and nuclear disarmament. In the Fun Half, Steven Miller is trashing Leonard Leo and the Federalist Society over some of their judge's rulings on immigration. The UAW puts out an anti-Cuomo ad that promotes their endorsement of Zohran Mamdani as well as progressive Brad Lander. And we also take in some more of Charlie Kirk humiliating himself at Cambridge University, where he was repeatedly dunked on by multiple college students.

Mon, 2 June 2025
Welcome to the week people. Republican leaders are still trying to jam major cuts to Medicare, food stamps and other vital programs down our throats in the form of the Big Beautiful Bill, some GOP members have had to face tough questions from their constituents about how those cuts will effect them. But after being called out last week for making cuts that will ultimately kill many of her constituents, Republican Senator Joni Earnst says that we'll all die one day. Now she's released a cynical non-apology in response to the controversy. After that, Science journalist and astrophysicist Adam Becker is here to discuss his new book More Everything Forever. Check it out here: https://mitpressbookstore.mit.edu/book/9781541619593 As well as Adam's piece in the Guardian on the same subject: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/may/03/tech-oligarchs-musk In the Fun Half, Elon Musk sits down for an interview with CBS News but only wants to talk about rocket ships and seems upset that he's being asked about the Trump administration. Hakeem Jeffries gives the most limp nothing of an answer when asked what he's planning to do in response to federal agents entering the offices of Congressman Jerry Nadler and cuffing one of his aids, which came weeks after federal agents arrested Democratic Congresswoman LaMonica McIver. And people in San Diego spontaneously protest ICE agents as they raid local establishments.

Fri, 30 May 2025
We've made it to Casual Friday folks, so loosen that collar and tune in. First up, Trump is continuing to melt down after being confronted with the acronym T.A.C.O. (Trump Always Chickens Out) and insists that he's a big strong man who is doing the best trade negotiations the world has ever seen. Meanwhile, Commerce Secretary Scott Bessent admits that talks with China have stalled and that he's not really sure when they might restart. Then David Dayen from the American Prospect joins us to talk about Trump's failures and what they mean for trade and the global economy. Check out his work on the golden age of scams: https://prospect.org/power/2025-05-27-golden-age-of-scams/ And check out David's other pieces and podcasts at The American Prospect here: https://prospect.org/ In the Fun Half, Karoline Leavitt has a real wackadoodle justification for the legality of Trump's tariffs. A hero on Martha's Vinyard has been following around ICE agents with a camera, hounding them with questions and justified hectoring. Zohran Mamdani has some positive polling numbers with less than a month left to go before the New York mayoral primary. And Charlie Kirk embarrasses himself at a at a Cambridge University debate about feminism. Also: The Bitchuation Room is doing a live podcast TONIGHT in Los Angeles.

Thu, 29 May 2025
Happy Emmajority Report Thursday to all who celebrate. Trump's tariffs are halted by a court ruling, and he is is big mad about that and the new term TACO (Trump Always Chickens Out) that's been ascribed to his tariffs by a Financial Times columnist. After that, Taylor Lorenz is with us to talk about the persistent political impact of the COVID pandemic and the government's response to it. Check out her video we play a part of (and the rest of her YouTube page for that matter) here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zXrjlOE9e50&t=781s In the Fun Half, we are joined by Thursday regulars Matt Binder and Brandon Sutton to try to decipher Eric Adams' comparison of Betsy Ross to Bitcoin. It's a head scratcher. A new poll shows the Abundance Agenda is not as popular as public policy that would fight corruption and get money out of politics. Pretty f-ing granular! And Texas is about to pass a draconian anti-trans bill.

We have The Lever's Luke Goldstein on today to talk about the GENIUS Act & its implications, including that oligarchs might be able to issue their own private currency if it's signed into law. Check out Luke's piece here: https://www.levernews.com/get-ready-to-pay-in-zuckbucks/ Then Sam talks to members of United Food and Commercial Workers will be picketing in Worcester, Mass tomorrow as they negotiate a new contract before the current one expires in just over a week. If you want to show support and get a free MR T shirt, head to their picket at UMass Memorial in Worcester with a pizza and send us a pic to Majority Reporters (at) Gmail. Also, contact Mass Memorial directly to tell them you support UFCW's members: https://www.massgeneral.org/contact And / or send them some love on their FB page: https://www.facebook.com/ufcwlocal1445/ And tell the local paper in Worcester to cover this story: https://help.telegram.com/contact-us In the Fun Half, Piers Morgan finally uses the G word when describing what's happening in Gaza. Republicans are getting an assist of sorts from Senate Democrats to push through Trump's Big Beautiful Bill, though Schumer and co. certainly don't want you to see it that way. Here's David Dayen's reporting on how Senate Dems could do something to stop it should they want to: https://prospect.org/politics/2025-05-28-senate-democrats-stop-big-beautiful-bill/ And finally, theoretical physicist Sean Carroll absolutely mops the floor with Eric Weinstein's physics musings.

Ryan Grim joins us to unpack the brutal consequences of the GOP’s latest “Big, Beautiful Bill”—who’s getting crushed and who’s cashing in.

Thu, 22 May 2025
It's a jam-packed Emma-jority Thursday folks. House Republicans have jammed through an abominable budget bill that will gut Medicaid and lots of other vital programs. But guess what? There's more money for the military and for border enforcement, and most importantly, a huge tax cut for the wealthy. We have two great guests today, first Emma will talk to the co-founder and editor in chief of Middle East Eye David Hearst about the worsening situation in Gaza and the diplomatic hole Israel has dug itself into. Check out his piece "Israel has already lost the Gaza war. It just doesn't know it yet" https://www.middleeasteye.net/opinion/israel-has-already-lost-gaza-war-it-just-doesnt-know-it-yet After that, Emma is joined by South African journalist and contributing editor at Jacobin Benjamin Fogel about the absolutely bonkers meeting yesterday between Donald Trump and South African President Cyril Ramaphosa. In the Fun Half, Harry Enten has the numbers that show Elon Musk's rating is in the toilet, and so so is his company Tesla.

Wed, 21 May 2025
It's hump day and as it so happens technical hiccup day. But don't worry, we got some scotch tape and paperclips and have McGyvered this thing for now. Republicans in Congress are doing what they can to push their massive tax cut through reconciliation, and you'll never get who's gonna benefit from that (it's rich people). To make it happen, Republicans are now trying to sneak in cuts to Medicare. We talk first to Singrid Steinmetz, an ICU nurse and a member of the California Nurses Association, which represents nearly 2,200 at Long Beach Medical Center who will be striking tomorrow. Here's the contact info for LBMC in case you want to tell management there to support it's nurses: https://www.memorialcare.org/locations/long-beach-medical-center After that, we hear from The Guardian U.S. investigative reporter George Joseph about his stunning new piece out today about how United Health Care has secretly paid nursing homes that helped it gain Medicare enrollees and reduced hospitalizations: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/may/21/unitedhealth-nursing-homes-payments-hospital-transfers In the Fun Half, Emma, Sam and Matt respond to Skelator look-alike Rick Scott trying to make the case for making cuts to Medicaid by arguing that if you want health care in America you should have to work for it. Steve Scalise is singing the same tune. Bernie went on Andrew Schulz's show and managed to get him and his bros to acknowledge the problem of inequality and the absurdity of being the only industrialized country in the world without guaranteed health care. Also, Andrew Cuomo talks to Bari Weiss about what's ailing Democratic-run cities and states (hint, he blames the left) and he seems to be pushing an Abundance™ style agenda.

Tue, 20 May 2025
It's Newsday Tuesday™ and Trump is on Capitol Hill trying to push his Big Beautiful Bill today. Sam and Emma will dig into what's in it and why. Suffice to say, when the dust settles, poor and working class people are sure to get the short end of the stick. Also, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem apparently has no idea what Habeas Corpus is, how it works or how it's invoked. In the Fun Half, we bask in the glow of Columbia University's president getting boo'ed and heckled during a graduation ceremony. John Stewart points out how Jake Tapper sat on some really important information about Joe Biden's mental acuity and the workings of his administration in order to sell it after the fact as a book. And finally, Sam has some more thoughts on Ezra Klein and the Abundance Agenda.

Mon, 19 May 2025
First Emma and Sam check in on the latest on Israel and it's ongoing siege on Gaza. Netanyahu says that he's going to allow in some food aid, but it seems to be mostly a fig leaf to shield Israel from widening criticism over the starving children and looming famine in Gaza as the IDF begins it's new, horrifying phase of their genocidal campaign. Senator Chris Van Hollen is one of a very short list of U.S. lawmakers willing to call it out. After that, Sam and Emma talk to historian Quinn Slobodian about his new book "Hayek's Bastards: Race, Gold, IQ and the Capitalism of the Far Right." Check it out here: https://www.zonebooks.org/books/160-hayek-s-bastards-race-gold-iq-and-the-capitalism-of-the-far-right And check out Quinn's previous books as well: Crackup Capitalism: https://us.macmillan.com/books/9781250753892/crackupcapitalism/ Market Civilizations: Neoliberals East and South: https://www.zonebooks.org/books/144-market-civilizations-neoliberals-east-and-south In the Fun Half, Jim Clyburn (D-SC) thinks that he STILL thinks that Biden could have served out a second term as president, which he said just hours before Biden's cancer diagnosis was made public. A remarkable position, though perhaps a defensive one for an 84 year old who's still serving in Congress. After that, Sam breaks the news that a court has effectively ended the pause on the Trump administration's move to end temporary protected status for hundreds of thousands of Venezuelan immigrants. George Washington University's student graduation speaker Cecilia Culver is brave enough to say she's ashamed that her tuition money is going to funding the genocide in Gaza, despite what similar graduation speakers have faced after making similar statements during graduation speeches. Actor Zach Woods shares a satirical take on NYU withholding the diploma of their graduation speaker after he denounced his university's complicity in Israel's war crimes. Tim Pool doesn't think non-citizens should have free speech while they're in the United States, and he goes to great logical lengths to justify that position. And finally, Sam, Emma and Matt are joined by Majority Report Chief Middle School Correspondent for the latest on what 12-year-olds are up to these days.

Fri, 16 May 2025
We've made it to casual Friday folks! The Supreme Court had a field day yesterday with the Trump administration's attorney over their executive order to revoke birthright citizenship. Several of the justices, including conservatives, seemed to reject the argument that circuit court injunctions should only apply to the specific case in question. After that, the Nation's Jeet Heer is here to break down all the week's highlights (and lowlights), including Trump's trip to the Middle East, the GOP spending bill and the Democratic Party's lack of willingness to address concerns over Biden's age when it counted. Check out Jeet's writing at The Nation: https://www.thenation.com/authors/jeet-heer/ And his podcast The Time of Monsters: https://www.thenation.com/content/time-of-monsters/ In the Fun Half, Sam and Emma go deeper into the Supreme Court case on birthright citizenship, mainly a question Bret Kavanaugh asked about how such a policy would even be implemented. Would expecting mothers have to pass a customs checkpoint to enter the maternity ward? Or maybe all maternity wards would have to be inside of detention centers so the government can adjudicate each baby's immigration status after they're born. Kid Rock says that liberal women are ugly. Ok dude. And towards the end of the show, Sam, Emma Kuwalski from Nebraska and a few other listeners do a bit of a post-mortem on Sam's conversation with Ezra Klein.

Thu, 15 May 2025
It's an Emma-jority Thursday and we got a great show for you. Emma talks to Historian and Author Greg Grandin about his new book America, América: A New History of the New World. https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/747326/america-america-by-greg-grandin/ After that, writer Brian Merchant discusses his reporting on AI and it's encroachment on human jobs on his blog Blood in the Machine: https://www.bloodinthemachine.com/ After that we'll have Matt Binder and Brandon Sutton on, as is Thursday tradition. NYU Gallitan student Logan Rozos bravely recognized the Gaza genocide during his graduation speech, which has prompted the school to now withhold his diploma. Joe Rogan defends X's decision to allow Ye to post his new blatantly antisemitic single, and Kristi Noem runs interference in Congress for Trump's child-like interpretation of a clearly photoshopped image of Kilmar Abrego Garcia's tattoos.

Wed, 14 May 2025
Today Sam has his much-anticipated discussion with Ezra Klein about his book Abundance, tune in! Sam and Ezra's convo is wide-ranging, but focuses mostly on housing, regulation and the influence of money in politics. But first, Sam checks on the Republicans' efforts to make cuts to Medicaid. To hear more from Ezra, check out his podcast The Ezra Klein Show: https://www.nytimes.com/column/ezra-klein-podcast Or read his book Abundance: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Abundance/Ezra-Klein/9781668023488 Or check out his column at the New York Times: https://www.nytimes.com/column/ezra-klein After that, Sam checks in on a Congressional hearing where RJK Jr. won't answer whether he'd recommend his kids be vaccinated for Measles, despite that it's already infected more than 1,000 people in the country. Kennedy goes on to say he doesn't think people should be taking medical advice to him. Remind you, he's the head of Donald Trump's Health and Human Services Department. Chuck Schumer won't address the new reporting from Jake Tapper that Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries and co. were working on a plan to pull Biden from the top of the presidential ticket before the disastrous debate. Then, Steven Crowder tries to explain why Trump's toothless executive order to regulate the cost of pharmaceutical drugs is a shot across the bow of Marxist countries like Germany. It's funny but doesn't really make sense.

Tue, 13 May 2025
Sam and Emma welcome Dropsite's Jeremy Scahill for the latest developments on the Trump administration's diplomatic push in the Middle East as well as Jeremy's recent interviews with senior leaders of Palestinian Islamic Jihad and Hamas. It's the perfect context to understanding what might lie ahead for Gaza with the shifting Trump administration's relationship with Israel. Check out Jeremy's interview with Hamas official Osama Hamdan here: https://www.dropsitenews.com/p/osama-hamdan-hamas-interview-podcast-gaza-israel Also check out Jeremy's conversation about his reporting on the Palestinian resistance with his Dropsite colleagues: https://www.dropsitenews.com/p/jeremy-scahill-interviews-hamas-gaza-yemen In the Fun Half, we look at how the Trump coalition is starting to fray over his break with Israel, but specifically on his willingness to accept a $400 million jet from Qatar. Suffice to say, Ben Shapiro is troubled by this latest development. Also, Bill Maher is STILL complaining about the satirical piece Larry David wrote about him. This time he tries to kvetch with Kill Tony, the king of offensive humor, who might be goofing on Maher as he simultaneously laments people comparing Trump to Hitler while also likening Hitler to Michael Jordan. Bill Maher is like the Lebron of not having self-awareness.

In addition to Trump's erratic trade policies, Republicans are also working to defund vital programs like Medicare and Social Security in their upcoming legislative push. AOC has an explainer on how the GOP is looking to cut nearly a trillion dollars out of Medicare and give it to billionaires. After that, Sam speaks to Mark Blyth to help unpack Trump's topsy turvy tariff policy and how it relates to inflation. Blyth is the Director of The William R. Rhodes Center for International Economics and Finance and a professor at Brown University. He’s also the co-author of the new book “Inflation: A Guide for Users and Losers” which is out now: https://www.markblyth.com/books In the Fun Half, Sam and Emma take in some of the highlights from the White House press conference on Trump's latest executive order on prescription drug prices, which, suffice to say, is not what it's advertised to be. Trump says a rich friend of his who's taking the "fat shot drug" told him he's paying far less for it in the U.K. than in the U.S. RFK Jr. says this is proof that Trump is sticking it to the oligarchy. At the same time, Bret Weinstein is very concerned that maybe big pharma has gotten to RFK Jr. Become a member at JoinTheMajorityReport.com: https://fans.fm/majority/join Follow us on TikTok here!: https://www.tiktok.com/@majorityreportfm Check us out on Twitch here!: https://www.twitch.tv/themajorityreport Find our Rumble stream here!: https://rumble.com/user/majorityreport Check out our alt YouTube channel here!: https://www.youtube.com/majorityreportlive Gift a Majority Report subscription here: https://fans.fm/majority/gift Subscribe to the ESVN YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/esvnshow Subscribe to the AMQuickie newsletter here: https://am-quickie.ghost.io/ Join the Majority Report Discord! https://majoritydiscord.com/ Get all your MR merch at our store: https://shop.majorityreportradio.com/ Get the free Majority Report App!: https://majority.fm/app Go to https://JustCoffee.coop and use coupon code majority to get 10% off your purchase!

It's a Sam-solo casual Friday and Digby is here to wrap up the week that was. Sam takes in the Fox News discussion about the pope, which acknowledges that Jesus would be on the side of migrants if he was alive today, but also wonders whether he'd be as political as some of the leaders of the Catholic church have been. Then Sam and Digby marvel at JD Vance's ominous addendum to Donald Trump's tariffs agenda, mainly that American parents should be worried that if their children have to go off to fight in a war they should have American-made guns. They also discuss the Trump administration's cruel crack down on immigrants and their communities. Check out Digby's writing at Salon and on her blog: https://digbysblog.net/ After that, we hear from David Feldman who's upset about ICE, not for the reasons you might imagine. It's...interesting. After that, Sam decides to grant us a Freebie Friday, so get your kicks in while you can. We talk Tim Pool and his new academic definition of war, which basically includes any and everything so he can justify the Trump administration taking extra-constitutional actions to crack down on people it doesn't like. They also take in Biden's appearance on The View, where he tries to make the case that he wasn't experiencing mental decline while in office by trailing off and having Jill Biden speak on his behalf while he hangs his head in silence. It's really quite sad. After that, we hear from a trans member of the military who's devastated that his losing his career and perhaps his pension and other benefits as a result of the Supreme Court's ruling that allows the DoD to purge the military of trans people. A caller from Massachusetts mentioned these resources for people concerned about ICE's activities in the state: Luce Massachusetts: https://www.instagram.com/luce_hotline/ Blog WorcesterSucks: https://www.worcestersucks.email/ And here's the info about the protest Sam mentioned in support of Palestine in Brooklyn on Saturday: https://www.instagram.com/palawda/?hl=en Become a member at JoinTheMajorityReport.com: https://fans.fm/majority/join Follow us on TikTok here!: https://www.tiktok.com/@majorityreportfm Check us out on Twitch here!: https://www.twitch.tv/themajorityreport Find our Rumble stream here!: https://rumble.com/user/majorityreport Check out our alt YouTube channel here!: https://www.youtube.com/majorityreportlive Gift a Majority Report subscription here: https://fans.fm/majority/gift Subscribe to the ESVN YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/esvnshow Subscribe to the AMQuickie newsletter here: https://am-quickie.ghost.io/ Join the Majority Report Discord! https://majoritydiscord.com/ Get all your MR merch at our store: https://shop.majorityreportradio.com/ Get the free Majority Report App!: https://majority.fm/app Go to https://JustCoffee.coop and use coupon code majority to get 10% off your purchase!

Trump is touting his trade deal with the U.K., which he bragged will lead to an increased influx in the number of Rolls Royces to the U.S. He also says that the mounting crisis at America's ports, which could lead to people losing their jobs, is proof that the U.S. economy isn't losing money. It's a real head scratcher. After that, Georgetown professor of Indian politics Irfan Nooruddin is here to help contextualize the ratcheting of tensions between Indian and Pakistan over Kashmir. As Professor Nooruddin points out, both nuclear armed countries have domestic political and economic incentives to forge ahead with this dangerous tit for tat. In the Fun Half, we're joined by the usual Thursday suspects, Matt Binder & Brandon Sutton to check in on Laura Loomer's crusade against top Trump administration officials, this time Pam Bondi (who she refers to as Pam Blondi). Tim Pool is upset that one of his favorite punk band's singers is trans and played at a Bernie rally. After that, Russ, Matt, Brandon and Binder watch some zany clips of Lindy Li talking to Tara Palmeri about her new book (kind of).

Wed, 7 May 2025
It's an Emma-jority Wednesday and we've got 2 great guests for you. First though, Emma and Matt soak in some of the horrifying news coming out of Israel's siege on Gaza, where children are starving. The Trump administration has compounded the problem by continuing to support the Israeli military onslaught as they plan to intensify operations there. After that, Syracuse University professor Austin Kocher joins Emma to discuss the Trump administration's efforts to conscript local law enforcement to crack down on immigrant communities, as well as other extreme and unconstitutional tactics being taken by federal immigration enforcement agencies. Check out Austin's writing and research on his Substack: https://austinkocher.substack.com/ Then Dr. Kellan Baker, Executive Director of the Institute for Health Research and Policy at Whitman-Walker, gives his reaction to a new Trump administration report that endorses the widely discredited idea of so-called conversion therapy. He also talks about the barriers the Trump administration is fortifying to prevent trans people from getting the health care they need. In the Fun Half, Emma and Matt check in on the PBD podcast's reaction to the genius Trump idea of reopening Alcatraz as a prison. Their reviews are mixed folks! Meanwhile, Ben Shapiro is calling for the Trump administration to fire Peter Navarro and elevate Scott Bessent. All that and more on today's Emmajority Report!

Donald Trump isn't sure that migrants are entitled to due process, or if he needs to uphold the Constitution. He says he'll check with Attorney General Pam Bondi though and get back to us. That's just one of many bonkers moments from the president's sit down interview with NBC's Meet the Press. It's Funday Monday folks! The Roosevelt Institute's director of industrial policy and trade Dr. Todd Tucker joins Emma and Sam to break down the impact of the Trump administration's tariffs, as well as what a progressive tariffs regime might look like. Trump seems to see trade deficits as a zero sum game that he's asking Americans to make a huge sacrifice to win, though it's not clear why. In the Fun Half, we hear from the head of the Port of L.A. who is raising the alarm about slowdown in global trade, which could lead to shortages of goods in the U.S. and a reduction in workers needed at ports and in shipping. At the same time, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is practically begging people to become air traffic controllers because of a shortage of them at the FAA. This is after Duffy reportedly got into a shouting match with Musk about DOGE's targeting of the FAA. Chuck Schumer tries to take a victory lap over Trump's abysmal approval rating, but, whoops! His approval rating is also in the toilet.

Fri, 2 May 2025
Casual Friday is finally upon us! Sam and Emma take in the spectacle that was State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce finding out in real time during a press briefing that National Security Adviser Tim Waltz had been re-assigned to be the U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. while her boss Marco Rubio was replacing him. After that, Sam and Emma talk to Mehdi Hasan about Trump's first 100 days and all of the damage he and his administration have been able to do in that time. They reflect on how the administrations' assault particularly on immigrants, lead by Stephen Miller, has served as a horrifying spectacle meant in part to distract people from the harm that's also being done to the economy.
Check out more of Mehdi's analysis at Zeteo, which is about to turn one year old!: https://zeteo.com/ After that, Emma is joined by funnyman and birthday boy Matt Lieb. Together they take in some of the sad and consequential aspects of John Fetterman's mental health that have been reported on in a new piece by New York Magazine. Check out Matt's upcoming standup show next Wednesday at Cobbs in San Francisco: http://bit.ly/mattfrancobbs After that, Emma, Russ and Matt admire Ilhan Omar's handling of her interaction with Daily Caller "reporter" Myles Morell while effectively conveying the moral position on the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case and its implications. Also the Texas state house is busy debating a GOP-sponsored bill forbidding litter boxes from schools over a completely made up moral panic about furries.

It's an Emma-jority Report May Day, and we've got a jam-packed show for you. one of Mohsen Mahdawi's lawyers Shezza Abboushi Dallal is here to talk about his release from ICE detention and what lies ahead ahead for his case. She's also on Mahmoud Khalil's legal defense team. After that, Emma talks to Astra Taylor about the restarting of collections on defaulted student loans and the Republicans' plan working its way through Congress to dismantle public education. In the Fun Half, Matt Binder and Brandon Sutton join us to check in in Mark Zuckerberg and META's AI projects, which involve AI therapists, friends and girlfriends. He says this will help satiate some of our non-satiated demand for "connectivity." Stephen Miller goes on a bizarre diatribe about public schools in an attempt to justify why the administration is looking to defund the public school system. They also listen to the horrific account of a woman who was mistake for a pro-Palestinian protester and assaulted by a crowd of men outside a Chabad temple that was hosting an event with the far-right National Security Minister, the war criminal Itamar Ben-Gvir. She said the police largely stood by and watched the pro-Israel crowd assault her. On of our regular callers Annie gave an optimistic update on her situation, and is hoping to get across the finish line with her fundraising goal for her treatment for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. Help her out if you're able to: Also, here's the link to Russ' old podcast he mentioned the New Yorker Political Scene Scene episode where he delves into Dana Bash's hyping up of concerns over antisemitism and her conflicts of interest: https://rss.com/podcasts/newyorkerpoliticalscenescene/1650490/ Become a member at JoinTheMajorityReport.com: https://fans.fm/majority/join Follow us on TikTok here!: https://www.tiktok.com/@majorityreportfm Check us out on Twitch here!: https://www.twitch.tv/themajorityreport Find our Rumble stream here!: https://rumble.com/user/majorityreport Check out our alt YouTube channel here!: https://www.youtube.com/majorityreportlive Gift a Majority Report subscription here: https://fans.fm/majority/gift Subscribe to the ESVN YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/esvnshow Subscribe to the AMQuickie newsletter here: https://am-quickie.ghost.io/ Join the Majority Report Discord! https://majoritydiscord.com/ Get all your MR merch at our store: https://shop.majorityreportradio.com/ Get the free Majority Report App!: https://majority.fm/app Go to https://JustCoffee.coop and use coupon code majority to get 10% off your purchase!

Wed, 30 April 2025
The U.S. economy shrunk by 0.3% in the first quarter of 2025 according to the Commerce Department. That's a huge splash of cold water on the Trump administration's celebrations marking his first 100 days in office. In addition to that, Trump gave an interview to ABC News last night where he acknowledges he could bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia back from El Salvador if he wanted to, seemingly flouting the Supreme Court's order to do just that. So what is Chuck Schumer up to? He's put out a video literally clapping back against the administration's planned tax on cars. Great to see he's always on point! Sam is joined by Biden's former Social Security administrator Martin O'Malley, who has been raising the alarm about Republicans' assault on his former agency in a variety of ways. In the Fun Half, Sam look at more clips from Trump's 100 day celebrations, including a chilling moment at a rally in Michigan where Trump plays footage of prisoners in El Salvador's prison are paraded around for the cameras and have their heads shaved. The crowd chants U-S-A in response. Trump also apparently believes that the photoshopped version of Kilmar Abrego Garcia's hands with the letters MS13 imposed on them is a real photograph, and insists as much in his interview with ABC's Terry Moran. Meanwhile, Tim Pool tries to dispel what the right has come to call the "Maryland Man Hoax," which is the way they try to distract people from paying attention to the very real injustices at play in Abrego Garcia's deportation and imprisonment.

It's Newsday Tuesday. Up top, Sam and Emma take in the White House's angry response to the news that Amazon had started to display the cost of tariffs on it's orders on one of its websites, before Amazon quickly back-peddled and apologized. Sam and Emma then talk to the former head of the CFPB and the FTC Rohit Chopra on the Trump administration taking a sledgehammer to regulations and consumer protections. After that, Canadian writer and podcaster Luke Savage breaks down the results of Canada's elections and what it means for the future of Canada-U.S. relations. Follow his Substack: https://www.lukewsavage.com/ As well as his delightful film podcast Michael and Us: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/michael-and-us/id1120756155 In the Fun Half, Emma and Sam check in on Trump's nominee for U.S. attorney in Washington, DC Ed Martin and his efforts to distance himself from his right wing media appearances, including his repeated praise of a January 6th rioter and apparent Nazi sympathizer. Meanwhile, Chuck Schumer says he's sent a strongly worded letter to the Trump administration over their crackdown on academia, but also goes out of his way to denounce what he said were antisemitic incidents on college campuses. Andrew Callaghan tries to talk some sense into Patrick Bet-David regarding the relationship between homelessness, social welfare programs and taxation, to no avail.

Mon, 28 April 2025
It was a busy news weekend so it's a pretty jam-packed show today. First Emma and Sam take in the latest Trump administration spin on the blowback from their self-imposed tariff disaster. After that, they're joined by The Nation's legal analyst and justice correspondent Elie Mystal who breaks down some of the overarching legal issues that have emerged in Trump's first 100 days. Elie also has a new book out, “Bad Law: Ten Popular Laws That Are Ruining America" which is available here: https://thenewpress.org/books/bad-law/ Also check out Elie's writing in The Nation: In a Normal World, Harvard’s Lawsuit Against Trump Would Be a Slam Dunk: https://www.thenation.com/authors/elie-mystal/ Did the Supreme Court Just Grow a Spine? https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/did-the-supreme-court-just-grow-a-spine/ After that, Sam and Emma react to the news that Rep. Gerry Connolly is stepping down as ranking member of the House Oversight Committee due to his worsening health. Basically at this point there's no good reason that the party shouldn't back AOC to replace him. In the Fun Half, Sam, Emma and Matt react to "Mr. Wonderful" attacking AOC by saying she's against the American dream because she's rallying tens of thousands of people against oligarchs. Then, Republican congressman Mike Lawler gets shouted out by a room full of his constituents over his acquiescence to Donald Trump. Meanwhile, Illinois governor J.B. Pritzker is in New Hampshire (gee, I wonder why) where he gave a fiery speech where he calls for mass protests against the Trump administration, saying that Republicans "must not know peace."

We've made it to Friday folks. Krystal Ball will be here to break down the wild week that was. First, Sam and Emma discuss Donald Trump's memecoin dinner and the amount of money he's made since taking office just over a month ago. Then Krystal, Sam and Emma discuss the arrest of an immigration judge by the FBI in Wisconsin for allegedly protected an undocumented immigrant from federal authorities. The three discuss how this development plays into the direction the administration is heading on immigration and in general. The three try to decipher what Trump and his inner circle are thinking at this point about tariffs, after having ceded significantly from their initial plan. They also discuss what is on the horizon for the Democrats.

Thu, 24 April 2025
It's a jam-packed show for today's Emmajority Report, starting with some alarming news about the Trump administration cutting funding for vital research on women's health. After that, Emma talks to Jacob Silverman about Donald Trump's crypto shenanigan sand how the Trump camp is financially benefitting from manipulating the markets. Check out Jacob's latest piece for the Financial Times "Welcome to slop world: how the hostile internet is driving us crazy" https://www.ft.com/content/5d06bbb4-0034-493b-8b0d-5c0ab74bedef After that, Emma speaks with Abdel El Sayed, who has just launched his campaign for a Senate seat in Michigan and has the backing of Bernie Sanders. He talks about his experiences as a public health official and how they informed his political outlook and why he's putting health care and particularly Medicare for All at the heart of his platform. He also thinks the Democrats need to do better when it comes to keeping groups like AIPAC out of their campaigns. In the Fun Half, Emma will be joined by the usual Thursday crew, Matt Binder and Brandon Sutton. They check in on LA City Attorney Hydee Feldstein-Soto and why she's being credibly accused of bias against the pro-Palestinian protesters she's prosecuting.

Elon Musk's star is in retrograde following Tesla's abysmal earnings report. This as Trump continues to take a sledge hammer to the IRS and other federal agencies. We have Merici Vinton on the show today, who is a former staffer at the U.S. Digital Service Department, which became absorbed by DOGE when Donald Trump took office. She's also a former adviser at the IRS. Check out her recent piece in the Federation of American Science: https://fas.org/publication/end-of-irs-direct-file/ In the Fun Half, Sam revels in podcaster Jennifer Welsh shouting at Rahm Emmanuel for throwing trans people under the bus when talking about what issues Democrats should focus on. Jordan Peterson and Joe Rogan lament the negative impact that Trump's policy are having on the upcoming Canadian election. As always, Peterson is wearing a very silly suit. Also, Republican Congressman Byron Donaldson gets shouted at at a town hall in Florida by constituents who are PISSED about Elon Musk and DOGE.

Tue, 22 April 2025
Newsday Tuesday! Sam and Emma break down the latest news leaking out of the Pentagon, as well as Fox News host Will Cain's non-apology after acknowledging he was wrong about doubting that Donald Trump had ever said that he wanted to deport U.S. citizens. Republican congressman Austin Scott gives some hints as to how Republicans are planning to make cuts to Medicaid. Then Emma and Sam also speak to Brendan Benedict, an antitrust and commercial litigation lawyer who is covering antitrust cases for the blog Big Tech on Trial. He gives us an overview of the Google antitrust cases, as well as the current Facebook case which Brendan is covering now for Big Tech On Trial. Check out their coverage here: https://www.bigtechontrial.com/ In the Fun Half, Emma and Sam check ask why Donald Trump continues to punt on releasing more of the Epstein files. They also check in on comedian and podcaster Andrew Schulz, who says he switched from being a Democrat to being a Republican because conservatives are doing cool sh*t now, like saying and doing whatever they want (as long as it's not critical of Israel). Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and Brian Kilmeade suggest that the Deep State is out to get him, and that despite them he's not going to join the "cocktail sipping" crowd. Also, the White House welcomes a new journalist into the briefing room with the bravery to finally ask hard-hitting questions, Tim Pool.

Fri, 18 April 2025
It's casual Good Friday, and oh what a week it's been. Emma breaks down Senator Chris Van Hollen's meeting with his constituent Kilmar Abrego Garcia who was wrongfully deported to El Salvador, as well as the way the White House and Bukele are trying to spin it. After that, Emma speaks with the new chairman of the House Progressive Caucus Rep. Greg Casar (D-TX), who shares his vision for how the Democratic Party can push back on Trump's draconian immigration crackdown, as well as providing a more positive vision for a forward-looking immigration program of their own. Emma also asks Casar about what conversations are taking place within the House Progressive Caucus about the disconnection between the Democratic Party at large and its constituents on Gaza. Casar also talks about his experience on the Fight the Oligarchy tour with Bernie & AOC, and his desire to make sure the federal government is rid of Elon Musk by May. After that, Emma is joined by Some More News' Cody Johnston, to talk about what is happening (or not happening) to counter the Trump administration's full-court blitz. David Hogg and Chris Cuomo take shots at Bernie, AOC and DNC co-chair David Hogg for "taking a page from the MAGA playbook." Carvel even suggests that he might try to sue Hogg for saying that he's going to support primary campaigns against incumbent Democrats. They also marvel at Jair Bolsonaro's latest edition of shirtless hospital selfies. Check out Some More News' YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/@SMN In the Fun Half, we watch the interview that Mohhsen Mahdawi, a Palestinian student at Columbia who is now in ICE custody, gave before the day of his arrest. His story may be chilling but his words and spirit are an inspiration and beacon of hope in an otherwise dark time.

Thu, 17 April 2025
It's a busy Thursday here at MR HQ, and Emma dives right into the significance Judge James Boasberg's finding cause to hold the Trump administration in criminal contempt for not adhering to his previous order on deportations. Meanwhile, Senator Chris Van Hollen is in El Salvador where he's been prevented from visiting his Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Then, Emma is joined by writer, activist and professor Naomi Klein about her new essay The rise of end times fascism. Naomi points out the new form that right wing authoritarianism has taken in finding ways to exit society and Earth itself. Naomi co-wrote the essay with Astra Taylor, which you can read here in The Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-interactive/2025/apr/13/end-times-fascism-far-right-trump-musk After that, infectious disease doctor MarkAlain Déry joins Emma in the studio to discuss the challenges facing public health under the Trump regime, especially from Health and Human Services Secretary RFK Jr. who continues to spread misinformation about any number of things, including about autism and vaccines. MarkAlain expresses his concern that essential programs that receive federal funding could now be in jeopardy, especially those that cater to marginalized communities, especially undocumented people. In the Fun Half, Matt Binder and Brandon Sutton are here to break down the video of Republican senator Chuck Grassley getting yelled at by his constituents at a town hall over the deportation of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. The group talks about how entrenched some of the support for Trump is among his base, even when his policies cost them their jobs. They also discuss how the attention on the Abrego Garcia is a moment when Democrats need to keep their foot on the gas and show voters that they are willing and able to fight for justice.

Halfway through Emma-jority week and we're still just getting started. We check in on a Chuck Grassley town hall where he's confronted by angry constituents in a small town in Iowa.

Tue, 15 April 2025
It's a Newsday Tuesday with Emma on the mic. She recaps the chilling spectacle that was the Bukele-Trump Oval Office meeting / press availability, including the Kafkaesque exchange over the wrongfully deported Maryland father Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia. As Emma explains, despite the Supreme Court's ruling that the administration must make an effort to bring Abrego Garcia home, the Trump administration and and El Salvador's crypto-strong man both claim to be unable to abide by the ruling out of deference to one another. Emma then talks to Annelle Sheline, a research fellow in the Quincy Institute’s Middle East program who's latest paper focuses on the U.S.'s prioritization of weapons sales over human rights. Annelle gets into some of the thinking of her state department colleagues over this issue, which she finds to be rooted in outdated American exceptionalism. The hypocrisy is particularly noteworthy when it comes to Israel, despite growing public sentiment against Israel's destruction of Gaza and perpetual subjugation of the Palestinian people. Read Annelle's paper "Under Primacy, Weapons Sales Will Always Supersede Human Rights" here: https://quincyinst.org/research/under-primacy-weapons-sales-will-always-supersede-human-rights/# In the Fun Half, Emma further peels the onion of Stephen Miller's lies about the Abrego Garcia case, citing the administration's own court filings. She then delves into the debate between Megyn Kelly and Matt Walsh over trad wives and whether women should only tend to the needs of their husbands and children. Ben Shapiro and Some More News also get in on the action. And a caller asks how he might talk to members of his family who have gone down the conservative rabbit hole.

Mon, 14 April 2025
It's Monday, the first day of an Emma-jority week, so buckle up! First, Emma breaks down the latest tariff chaos, with Howard Lutnik and Peter Navarro singing different tunes in explaining why goods like computers, cell phones and the much coveted chips are being exempted from the tariffs. But Navarro doesn't want you tall them exemptions though just FYI. After that, Salvadoran-American author, activist and educator Roberto Lovato joins Emma here to give us some context to Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele's visit to Washington. During his meeting with Trump, Bukele makes it clear that he doesn't plan to return Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia, despite that the Trump administration has already admitted he was sent to a prison in El Salvador due to an administrative error and that SCOTUS already ordered the Trump administration to make an effort to bring him Abrego Garcia home. Roberto helps contextualize this horrifying new dystopia in history of U.S. - Salvadoran relations.

Fri, 11 April 2025
It's Casual Friday (relatively speaking), and Sam and Emma start the show with some glimmers of good news on the immigration front, following the Supreme Court's ruling that the Trump administration must make an attempt to bring home Kilmar Armando Ábrego García. The government already admitted they deported Garcia to a maximum security prison in El Salvador because of an administrative error. Sean McGarvey, the president of the International Association of Sheet Metal, Air, Rail and Transportation Workers where Garcia is a member, has demanded he be brought home. Sam and Emma are then joined by The Nation's national affairs correspondent Jeet Heer to break down the implications of Trump's chaotic tariff policy, which is accelerating de-dollarization, including among the U.S.'s most (normally) steadfast allies. They also break down the warped logic of Trump's immigration crackdown, including the weaponization of the immigration system for the sake of Israel. Jeet makes the point that both Democrats and Republicans have participated in the weaponization of faux concerns about antisemitism which has brought us to this moment. Jeet also gives his opinion of the much-discussed Abundance Agenda. Check out Jeet's writing here: https://www.thenation.com/authors/jeet-heer/ In the fun half, Sam and Emma react to billionaire Chamath Palihapitiya complaining that Democrats never gave him access to the Oval Office despite the fact that he donated millions of dollars to their campaigns. They also take in Jesse Waters' breakdown of Trump's bizarre cabinet meeting, an all-star sycophantic ceremony with highlights from Elon Musk, RFK Jr. Pam Bondi & Pete Hegseth, each one trying to out-headline the other.

Wed, 9 April 2025
On today's show, Sam covers the chaos surrounding Donald Trump's tariffs and the administration's efforts to explain themselves. Our guest is Matt Duss, Executive Vice-President at the Center for International Policy and a former adviser to Bernie Sanders. Their conversation covers the global reaction to the tariffs, Israel's ongoing assault on Gaza, the U.S.'s bombardment of Yemen & the talks between the U.S. and Iran set to take place this weekend. Follow Matt Duss and his work here: https://bsky.app/profile/mattduss.bsky.social https://www.undiplomaticpodcast.com/ In the fun half, Sam marvels at the more of Trump world's intellectual gymnastics to try to explain and justify the tariffs, including Trump's trade representative who was testifying live in the House Ways & Means Committee when the tariffs were reversed on every country except China. Also, Elon Musk gets cyber-bullied out of his own live stream. Sam also takes some listener calls and reads some IMs. You can call SC Governor Henry McMaster at (803) 734 - 2100 to oppose the execution of Mikal Mahdi by firing squad (!) on Friday.

Fri, 4 April 2025
Happy Friday! Sam welcome David Dayen from The American Prospect and Organized Money podcast about Trump's tariff-pocalypse. https://www.organizedmoney.fm/ First, Sam runs through updates on Trump’s global trade war, Congress’ attempt to regain authority over tariffs, South Korea’s impeachment of now-former President Yoon, Trump’s firing of national security officials, the Trump Administration’s public health whoopsie, the Senate’s budget reconciliation, the confirmation of Dr. Oz, Schumer’s polling, Trump’s attack on Brown University, DOGE vs. Social Security, and US aid to Israel, before watching Scott Bessent explain why good markets are bad and bad markets are good. David Dayen then joins to tackle the myriad insanities that led to Trump’s imposition of these tumultuous tariffs, walking through the nonsensical (and potentially AI-generated) formula Trump used to calculate them and the utter dearth of any complementary incentive structure or strategic targeting to go the tariffs, all suggesting that they’re perhaps more grounded in an attempt to bully and punish the rest of the world economically while working-class Americans pay the cost. After expanding on the Bessent “box” theory of Trump’s tariff agenda, Sam and David get in some solid digs at Schumer as they touch on Congress’ ongoing attempt to take back tariff power and ponder the future of a GOP turn on Trump’s economic sabotage, before unpacking what to expect from to the GOP’s ongoing budget reconciliation push. Wrapping up Dayen posits a strong theory on a Conservative push to use rising prices amid tariffs to justify tax cuts, before watching some open criticisms of Trump from Ron Johson and Ted Cruz. And in the Fun Half: Sam tackles the return of Laura Loomer to Trump’s inner circle, now in the capacity as some form of National Security advisor, parses through some highlights from his appearance on PBD, including an attempt to address some Social Security misinformation, and watches Judge Jeanine make some blatantly incorrect statements about the future of the US economy.

Thu, 3 April 2025
It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! The guests will be political analyst Omar Baddar on Israel's renewed attacks in Gaza, and Paris Marx, host of the podcast "Tech Won't Save Us," about how Elon Musk is running Tesla into the ground. First, Emma runs through updates on Trump’s tariff turmoil and responses in both the Senate and House, Mike Waltz’s security issues, Laura Loomer’s return to the White House, Israel’s seizure of land in Gaza, a joint US-Israel attack on Syria, Netanyahu’s visit to Hungary, and Eric Adams’ announcement that he’s running as an independent, before diving deeper into Trump’s tariff announcement, including the bunk equation they used to calculate this policy, and the obvious, extensive impact it will have on everyday Americans. Omar Baddar then joins, jumping right into Israel’s major escalations to their ongoing ethnic cleansing of Gaza, with Netanyahu’s recent announcement that Israel would be going ahead with a full-scale land seizure in North Gaza, adding a “second Philadelphi Corridor” south of Gaza City amid their revamped military barrage, all under the dishonest pretense of saving the hostages. Baddar and Emma then look to Israel’s expansion of hostilities even outside of the genocide of Palestinians, with repeated bombardments against Lebanon – including occasional strikes on Beirut – ongoing despite an alleged ceasefire, unpacking the country’s (and Netanyahu’s) extensive history of pushing an agenda of regional chaos to bolster their position as Middle East watchdogs for the West, with Israel serving major roles in spurring the US invasion of Iraq in 2003 and in gutting the Iran Nuclear deal under Trump 1.0. Omar wraps up by touching on the growing backlash to Israel’s belligerency on the international stage, and whether there is hope to be found in both regional and global actors turning away from the US-Israel imperial coalition. Paris Marx then gets right into the wonderful revelations in Tesla’s quarterly earnings report, walking through the devastating drop in sales amid mass recalls, a diversifying EV market, and overwhelming global backlash to the fascist politics of Elon Musk. Marx then tackles the particular failures of Tesla’s *ONLY* new major model release in recent years with the Cybertruck, and how it represents the greater issue of allowing a deranged billionaire to make outrageous promises completely detached from the material reality of both his company and modern technology, before shifting to the explosive impact Chinese products are currently having on the EV market, with BYD proving clear affordability and profitability even in European markets, developments that are all in line with America’s dwindling role as a global economic leader. Paris and Emma wrap up by examining the growing existential threat facing Elon Musk and his companies as backlash to his corrupt business practices and corrupt politics hits back at Tesla and Starlink profits in Europe and Canada, all while he continues to tie his billionaire lifestyle to the worth of those stocks.

Wed, 2 April 2025
It's Wednesday! Sam and Emma are joined by Robert Weissman, co-president of the non-profit advocacy organization Public Citizen, which has filed 8 lawsuits against the Trump administration and says they have more coming. Later, Rohan Grey, Assistant Professor of Law at Willamette University, discusses his latest research on the Trump administration’s attempt to seize direct political control over the core payments software of the Treasury’s Bureau of the Fiscal Service, which handles spending for most of the federal government, to block funds to politically disfavored agencies and programs. First, they run through updates on the victory by liberal Susan Crawford in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race, Democrats’ growing margins in deep-red regions, Trump’s tariff fears, the GOP’s anger at proxy voting for new parents, Mike Waltz Gmail whoopsie, Senator Cory Booker’s marathon filibuster, the closure of free measles vaccine clinics in Texas amid a breakout, Ed Martin nomination for D.C. U.S. Attorney, Tesla’s tanking earnings, and the Senate GOP’s budget reconciliation, before expanding on the beautiful revelations around the toxicity of Elon Musk in US politics as seen in the incredible leftward swing amid his intense campaigning for conservative Brad Schimel Wisconsin. Robert Weissman then joins, first previewing the typical work of Public Citizen including advocacy, litigation, and organizing on behalf of the public against corporations, touching on everything from trade and consumer financial protection to drug pricing and campaign finance laws. Weissman then unpacks Public Citizens tactical shift under Trump 2.0, walking through the various legal battles they have taken on against Trump’s attempt to dismantle the federal U.S. government through executive reform, with a particular focus on their case to save the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau – an agency birthed from the 2008 Financial Crisis’ overwhelming impact on consumers – also touching on their effort to protect USAID and the Department of Education. Robert, Sam, and Emma expand on these lawsuits' ultimate goal of preventing the full-scale deletion of these agencies, understanding that, even with success, the Trump Administration will constantly be searching for (and finding) new ways to obstruct any accountability or pushback from this project, and focusing instead on ensuring the potential of rebuilding under future leadership, before wrapping up by looking to the upcoming fights over Trump’s insistence on using his executive power to fire any and everybody, and the role of “national emergencies” in bolstering executive power. Rohan Grey then joins, diving right into Elon Musk’s outrageous (and obviously untrustworthy) agenda of digitizing America’s fiscal regime, stepping back to walk through the process by which US fiscal policy operates, with said policy – be it spending, taxation, issuing debt, etc – originating in Congressional legislation, moving through the Office of Management and Budget under the President to manage the allocated spending over the allotted time, to the Treasury’s instructions with the Federal Reserve as the ultimate entity in charge of the dollars. After expanding on the utter absurdity of Elon’s plan – outside of if, perhaps, you wanted to completely rid the system of accountability or pushback – Rohan, Sam, and Emma parse through DOGE’s opaque takeover of the Bureau of Financial Services amid their project to indiscriminately cut funds, including Elon setting up an obvious assault on Social Security, wrapping up by expanding on what a botched system shift for the federal payment systems would look like, and assessing a more realistic idea for bringing our systems into the modern era.

Tue, 1 April 2025
Sam and Emma are joined by Rachel Cohen, lawyer formerly of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom, to discuss the country’s largest law firms bending the knee to Donald Trump. First, they run through updates on today’s elections in Wisconsin and Florida, Trump’s attack on the US public health regime, tomorrow’s tariff deadline, the Senate GOP’s budgetary sleight of hand, legal pushback to Trump over voting restrictions and his reclassification of protected Venezuelan migrants, Trump’s ongoing renditioning of Latin Americans to an El Salvadorian gulag, the mobilization of far-right militia’s to protect Musk’s businesses, Trump’s targeting of Harvard, Cory Booker’s filibuster, and dwindling Canadian tourism to the US, also watching Jesse Watters explain exactly why he (and the rest of the right) doesn’t care about due process. Rachel Cohen then dives Trump’s successful effort to cow some of the biggest law firms in the US – including her former firm of Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom – unpacking precisely what makes these law firms so “important” to Trump (wealthy clients, billions in profits), and the intimate relationship they have with the political elite, before walking through the actual contents of Trump’s threats to these firms’ contracts and access to federal buildings (e.g. courts), and why, unlike others, Skadden seemed to capitulate without even facing an Executive Order, including handing over $100m in pro-bono work to the administration. Expanding on this latter element, Cohen tackles the Trump Administration’s underlying aims for this authoritarian push against these attorneys elite, with the push against DEI policies, the takeover of pro-bono work, and the Executive Orders chilling pushback to Trump’s anti-migrant and anti-trans agenda coming at a time where he and his goons are undercutting due process for migrants and criminalizing trans identity. After touching on the mix of hubris and cowardice driving the executive capitulation in the world of corporate law, and what the internal pushback looks like among Cohen’s peers, Rachel, Sam, and Emma wrap up by reemphasizing the real goal of Trump’s project – a fascist takeover – and the importance of organized dissent.

Mon, 31 March 2025
It’s Monday! Sam and Emma are joined by Dave Weigel, politics writer at Semafor, author of the "Americana" newsletter to preview the first round of major elections after the Trump/Musk regime’s DOGE overhaul. First, they run through updates on Trump’s tariffs, a return of stagflation, the rejection of Mike Waltz, the conviction of Marine Le Pen, DOGE’s Social Security crash, RFK’s gutting of infection disease and HIV/AIDS policy, Tesla protests, Tesla fires, Iran’s response to Trump, and the Senate GOP’s budget push, before expanding on Trump’s authoritarian crackdown on migrants and watching Elon attempt to rally a Wisconsin crowd of sycophants. Dave Weigel then joins, reflecting on the rapid radicalization of the race for the last seat Wisconsin Supreme Court since the injection of over $20 million of Elon Musk’s money, going from the culmination of a decade-long battle by Wisconsin Democrats to break down the GOP gerrymander to a full-scale (in Elon’s words) battle for the “future of civilization.” After expanding on the more personal stakes Elon Musk has in the makeup of the Wisconsin Supreme Court, and why, despite that, the messaging has almost entirely centered on supporting Trump’s agenda, Weigel, Sam, and Emma shift to the upcoming special elections in Florida, as they unpack the fear the GOP is facing over their dwindling margins over the last few months, highlighting some particularly brutal campaigning from Democrat Josh Weil against “unhinged,” “anti-American” Randy Fine, and the importance of tying the Right to Musk’s anti-Medicaid, anti-Social Security agenda. Wrapping up, Dave touches on the potential GOP response if these margins continue to shrink, and how DOGE has allowed them to change their messaging. And in the Fun Half: Emma tackles the Trump/Musk agenda of boosting the immigration of *white* South Africans to the US, unpacks the Working Family Party’s endorsement of four candidates for New York City Mayor, and watches Zohran Mamdani continue to absolutely nail his messaging campaign. The MR Team also touches on Vivian Wilson's appearance with Hasan, growing regret from MAGA-voting federal workers, before taking a few calls to unpack Trump’s Greenland push, the devastating impact of Trump’s authoritarian crackdown on DACA Dreamers, and Canada’s Mark Carney, plus, your IMs!

Fri, 28 March 2025
It's Friday! Sam and Emma welcome Heather 'Digby' Parton back to the program for a look at another very busy week in news. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on HHS’ mass firings, Dem lawmakers’ demand for the release of the abducted Tufts student, Trump’s tariffs, Trump’s targeting of Smithsonian over “ideology”, the Senate GOP’s love for overdraft fees, HUD’s wage theft, Judge Boasberg’s disciplining of the Trump Administration, the scrapping of Elise Stefanik’s UN role, Elon Musk’s attempt to buy out the Wisconsin Supreme Court election, and Trump’s executive order to cancel union contracts, also touching on Schumer’s absurd messaging campaign in the wake of his budget capitulation, and watching Elise Stefanik grapple with her scrapped promotion live. Digby then joins, as she, Sam, and Emma dive right into the genuine danger between the lines of absurdity in the Trump Administration’s Signal scandal, from the clear sign that they’re moving away from official (documented) channels to the executive role being played by psycho-White nationalist Stephen Miller. After expanding on the horrifying aesthetic role Donald Trump is playing in the administration, and the tightening of the inner circle in Trump 2.0, Parton reflects on the genuine shock over how quickly US institutions folded to the threat of fascism, from Columbia to corporations to major law firms, and tackles the deliberate nature of the Trump Administration’s agenda of economic chaos, before wrapping up by touching on the few remaining levers of power Democrats have to push back against fascism. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch as the Trump Cabinet take various unique paths to avoid any questions about the ongoing Signal Scandal, Marco Rubio unpacks exactly why due process doesn’t matter, and Josh Hawley goes insane over the right to disappear student activists. They also dive into some recent controversy on the left and why playing Dave Rubin’s games with you Dave Rubin’s prizes, and talk with Vitor from Framingham about political conversations with right-wingers, plus, your calls and IMs!

Thu, 27 March 2025
It's Thursday! Emma welcomes Noah Kulwin to discuss the ongoing protests against Israel. First, Emma runs through updates on the Trump Administration’s designation of Mike Waltz as fall guy, Der Spiegel’s expose on Trump’s Cabinets’ security issues, GOP infighting, Kristi Noam’s fascist photo op, the disappearing of a Tufts student, Trump’s frozen funding freeze, the Trump Administration’s attack on public health, Trump’s tariffs, Musk’s political bribes, and Israel’s ongoing slaughter in Gaza, before watching Hegseth (with Trump’s “help”) try to clear his name in the Signal scandal. Noah Kulwin then joins, first touching on his experience taking part in the JVP protest at Trump Tower in New York over the Trump Administration’s disappearing of Columbia student activist Mahmoud Khalil, before diving deeper into the clear and thorough connection between the US’ support for fascism abroad and the descent into fascism at home, as we watch Israel resume its genocide on the Palestinian people while legal residents are picked up off the street by plain-clothes officers over pro-Palestinian speech – a Tufts student the most recent. Expanding on the global context for our current moment, Kulwin also touches on the particular role of the War on Terror in bolstering the rapid expansion of our surveillance state amid xenophobic, nationalist fervor. After expanding on the role of Jewish organizing in standing up to this fascist crackdown, Noah wraps up by emphasizing the need to Get Organized! what that means, and how to go about it at this moment. After briefly touching on the Mega Marcha, a demonstration against the Trump administration’s immigration policies, being held in Dallas this Saturday – which our planned second guest, Domingo García, chairman of the political arm of the League of United Latin American Citizens, helped organize – they wrap up the free half by highlighting Kristi Noam’s insane fascist photo-op outside of a migrant cell in El Salvador.

Wed, 26 March 2025
It's Wednesday! Sam welcomes Joel Lava from Tesla Takedown and Mase Veney, an organizer from the Philly Whole Foods Union. First, Sam runs through updates on the Trump Administration’s Signal scandal over their accidental leaking of war plans, the Supreme Court’s affirmation of Biden’s ghost gun regulations, Pennsylvania’s special election, the HHS’s anti-vaxxer-headed study on autism, trickling details about the legal status of certain Venezuelans renditioned to El Salvador, Trump/Musk’s plan to lay off thousands from the Treasury, the Senate GOP’s budget, JD Vance’s visit to Greenland, SpaceX’s secret Chinese backers, and Trump’s nomination for Social Security head, before diving into some of the biggest updates to the Trump team’s Signal scandal with the full release of messages after Tusli Gabbard’s claim that there was “no classified” information in the chat. Joel Lava then joins, diving right into the idea behind the wildly successful “Tesla Takedown” protests in attempting to undercut the overwhelming political power by hitting at its root: his massive wealth tied up in Tesla stocks. After expanding on the greater anti-Trump roots of this, Lava and Sam unpack the protests' goals and how far the stock would have to fall to really screw over Elon’s business ventures, wrapping up with how you can join a protest near you – or even start your own! Mase Veney then dives into his personal history working at Whole Foods in Philadelphia, the initial bonding between coworkers over their shared experiences of mistreatment and the company’s exploitation of the power imbalance, and the rapid evolution of the organizing process once he and his coworkers realized the overwhelming support the idea of unionization already had, quickly moving to work with United Food & Commercial Workers International to capitalize on their institutional knowledge of organizing within the grocery industry. After expanding on the important role UFCW played in helping them win the union vote with a strong majority, Veney and Sam shift into the Trump era, as they unpack how the company’s refusal to recognize the union is bolstered by a neutered NLRB and a hostile Trump Administration, before wrapping up the interview by emphasizing the continuing campaign to keep the all coworkers invested in the fight, and how those of us outside can support the effort! And in the Fun Half: Sam watches MIke Walz try to sidestep questions about his Signal scandal from an incredulous Laura Ingraham, Senator Elizabeth Warren evicerates Trump’s Social Security nominee and their relationship to DOGE, and Donald Trump shouts out the real one Chuck Schumer. Lis from California shares his perspective as a DACA recipient, and Kowalski from Nebraska unpacks Trump's terrible tariffs. Sam also watches Tim Pool and Co. go insane at the morally consistent belief in due process for all, and jumps off some criticism from the Pod Save guys as he espouses the need to unite pro-democracy and economic populist messaging. Tammy from Montreal explores a major win for Canada’s indigenous communities, Nathan from Illinois talks organized religion and authoritarianism, and the MR Team dissects early results out of PA’s special election, plus, your calls and IMs!

Wed, 19 March 2025
Ben Wikler, Chair of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin, joins to discuss the critical Wisconsin Supreme Court race. Then, Ezra Levin, co-founder of Indivisible, examines the direction and leadership of the Democratic Party. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the shuttering of USAID, Russia-Ukraine ceasefire negotiations, Israel’s revamped assault on Gaza, the DOJ’s refusal to answer for its illegal deportations, Trump’s killing of FTC operations, the gutting of the SSA, the abduction of Mahmoud Khalil, Trump’s attempt to re-segregate, the Fed not to cut rates, the release of the JFK Files, GOP Sen. Eichorn’s confirmation of pedocon theory, and HHS’s gutting of HIV prevention, also highlighting Schumer’s ongoing shame tour and the ongoing backlash the GOP’s facing at their town halls. Ben Wikler then joins, diving right into the story of Wisconsin politics during the 2010s – and what it can foretell about this moment for our country – with a GOP trifecta coming into 2011 and using a supposed budget crisis to legitimize a complete crippling of the opposition as well as the progressive and worker movements, unleashing extensively gerrymandered maps, engaging in blatantly discriminatory voter suppression, and explicitly targeting language around progressive issues (e.g. banning the term “climate change”). After diving deep into the particular role the Conservative majority on the State Supreme Court played in bolstering the unparalleled executive power of Governor Scott Walker, and how a revamped focus on the Court helped begin the Democrats’ slow crawl back into control, Wikler zeroes in on the ongoing State Supreme Court race between Brad Schimel – dedicated MAGA-Musker – and Susan Crawford, exploring the insane multi-million dollar investment into Schimel by Elon Musk, including blatantly illegal propaganda misrepresenting both his own organization and the candidates, wrapping up by emphasizing the importance of tying the entire conservative movement to the MAGA/Musk agenda they support, and exploring what those of us on the outside can do to help. Ezra Levin then joins, first running through the inception of Indivisible in the wake of the 2016 elections to combat the heinous agenda of Donald Trump and address the vacuum in Democratic leadership, before diving deep into the culmination of this effort, with last week’s failure by Democratic Leadership in the Senate to stand up against the Trump/Musk budget seeing an unprecedented level of backlash, with their caucus, House Leadership, and the mainstream media all leveling blunt questions of Chuck Schumer. Levin, Sam, and Emma parse through a few of Schumer’s recent TV appearances, as they dissect his utter strategic failures in using leverage in their fight with the GOP or in working with fellow Democrats, before wrapping up by tackling the future of this fight as Democrats look to find other pathways for messaging, and what those of us at home can do to help Indivisible’s fight. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Chuck Schumer get slammed by Chris Hayes in the wake of his humiliating capitulation to Trump and the GOP, listen to Elon Musk’s plea to empathize with the automotive class, and unpack Tim Pool’s attempt to revamp his relevancy on the coattails of Sam’s Jubilee video. Tonya from Washington has some film comparisons for the modern-day conservative movement, and another caller has a thought experiment, plus, your calls and IMs!

Tue, 18 March 2025
It’s News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma are joined by Austin Kocher, political and legal geographer studying immigration enforcement, and Assistant Research Professor at Syracuse University. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Israel’s bombardment of Gaza – breaking another ceasefire and killing hundreds – Trump’s back-and-forth with the judicial system, DOGE’s assault on the US Government, Trump’s union-busting pick for NLRB General Counsel, Trump’s crackdown on pro-Palestinian speech, the FDA’s move to delapidated office spaces, an abortion arrest out of Texas, and Trump’s attack on the Social Security Administration, before expanding on Israel’s violation of a ceasefire in Gaza with strikes killing over 300, and setting the stage for a potential return to ground invasion. Professor Austin Kocher then joins, diving right into the Trump Administration’s recent deportation of hundreds of Venezuelans to El Salvadorian “gulags” under the guise of association with militant gang “Tren de Aragua,” exploring the unsurprising revelations about the *lack* of association between many of these migrants and the gang, and why authoritarian President of El Salvador Nayib Bukele was so happy to bring these migrants into his expansive prison labor system ($6 million will help). Next, Professor Kocher steps back to assess the insane legal “strategy” grounding Trump’s agenda, with his blantant push for chaos allowing for his regime to carry out astonishingly inhumane actions amid countless injuctions and court orders, and why Judge Boasberg’s push to get attourney’s to sign onto their arguments might create some liability moving forward. After expanding on the regime’s obvious misrepresentation of who they are deporting, Austin, Sam, and Emma walk through the various layers of protection offered to immigrants in the US right now, including preemptive legal action, and knowing your rights, before wrapping up the interview by assessing exactly how absurd Trump’s claim of an “invasion” truly is. Also joining the program is Austin Kocher; political and legal geographer studying immigration enforcement, Assistant Research Professor at Syracuse University.

Mon, 17 March 2025
Happy Monday! Sam and Emma break down the biggest headlines of the day. First, they run through updates on the White House’s refusal to oblige court orders halting its deportation planes, Trump’s invocation of the Alien Enemies Act, Trump’s brutal deportations, NIH’s scrubbing of mRNA research grants, Trump’s bombardment of Yemen, Schumer’s book tour, dropping Democratic popularity, DOGE cuts to Los Alamos, Trump’s reversal of Biden pardons, the Voice of America, and the court-ordered rehiring of federal employees, before diving a little deeper into Senator Schumer’s capitulation to Trump and the GOP’s budget push. Next, they highlight the immediate result of Schumer and Senate Democrats’ affirmation of the Trump/Musk agenda, as the Trump regime spent this weekend expanding their regime of brutal abductions and inhumane migrant abuses, looking to the illegal flight of migrants to El Salvador (and the corresponding Twitter promos), and the recently released video by the ACLU of ICE's abduction of Mahmoud Khalil. They also dissect Schumer’s reflections on voting “yes” to advance the Elon/Trump GOP budget, exploring his willing adoption of the Trump Administration’s framing of the “Continuing Resolution,” his eagerness to let GOP Congresspeople shirk any responsibility for the Trump/Musk agenda, and the damage the vote has wrought on the Democratic Party itself – including the Party’s record-low approval rating and the growing divide between Senate leadership and the Party caucus. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Chris Murphy blatantly refuse to state his confidence in Chuck Schumer’s leadership and unpack Batya Ungar-Sargon’s insane argument for “MAGA Leftism” on Bill Maher. Pete Thiel and Dave Rubin mock HBCUs for being “dumb,” Mimi from Colorado has a PSA for ICE operations in Colorado and the importance of trusting librarians. Craig from LA explores the defense of Social Security in Congress, and Ben from Memphis on Kyle Rittenhouse’s speaking appearance at the University of Memphis. Chuck Edwards explains his alignment with Trump's imperial goals, and Perry from Lexington touches on the GOP’s major roadblock to trans healthcare in Kentucky with HB-495, plus, your calls and IMs!

Thu, 13 March 2025
It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! Emma speaks with David McWilliams, Irish economist and writer, to discuss Trump's interest in the presidency of William McKinley. Then, she speaks with Lily Greenberg Call, former political appointee in the Biden administration, to discuss the recent developments in the detention of Mahmoud Khalil. First, Emma runs through updates on the Senate’s vote on cloture and the Continuing Resolution, Trump’s mass layoffs, the gutting of the DOE, Trump’s trade war with Europe, the falling stock market, Trump’s failed nomination for CDC director, Tim Walz’s political tour, the UN’s independent inquiry into Israel’s genocide, the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the Mayor of Miami’s crackdown on free speech, and the attack on the IRS, before expanding on the ongoing fight within the US Senate to block the GOP’s partisan Continuing Resolution which would effectively neuter Congress amid Trump’s reign, and watching Markwayne Mullin accidentally give away the game on Trump’s tariff war. David McWilliams then dives right into the historical context for Trump’s obsession with William McKinley – 25th President of the United States – highlighting how the election of McKinley in 1896 served as a major turning point in the evolution of the Gilded Age, as a culmination of a populist push against growing economic consolidation amid increasing culture war and a rapidly growing (and changing) working class with an influx of European immigration, and the very clear parallels with how Trump is handling the similarities in this moment, from his alignment with the monopolists and oligarchs of the time, to his obsession with small territorial acquisitions while pushing an isolaitonist economic agenda. After touching on the end to McKinley with his assassination in 1901 and the major role his Vice President Teddy Roosevelt would play in pushing back against the political takeover of robber barons and monopolists, putting a bit of a damper on potential parallels to the Big Tech-backed JD Vance, McWilliams walks Emma through McKinley’s expansive project to bolster the pockets of his wealthy donors, from cementing the shift to a gold standard (crypto reserve anyone?!) and bolstering rail monopoly at the expense of America’s farming majority, to the inception of lobbying with the backing of his 1896 campaign by notorious businessman Mark Hanna (Musk), who would rally the wealthy elite behind McKinley to change the facts on the ground. Having briefly expanded on McKinley’s imperial agenda, and the particular role it plays in creating an atmosphere of chaos to mask the kleptocracy at work, David looks to the extreme lengths Trump has taken McKinley tariff regime, applying them to quite literally every close ally the US has in such a drastic manner it offers little explanation outside of in-group speculation while the economy as a whole collapses. They wrap up the interview by touching on the role McKinleyism and the Gilded Age played in spurring the emergence of the US labor movement under FDR. Lily Greenberg-Call then joins as she and Emma parse through the abduction and detainment of Columbia University activist and Greencard holder/permanent US resident Mahmoud Khalil over his speech in support of a free Palestine, reflecting on the vast distance between the response Chuck Schumer gave – largely defending Israel and denouncing Khalil’s speech – and that of Chris Murphy – who cites the criminalization of speech that goes against Trump’s agenda in contrast with the happy embrace of explicitly Nazi speech. Next, they dissect the particularly disgusting way in which antisemitism has been abused over this fight, from the White House’s explicit references to judaism in their flaunting of this authoritarian overstep, to the fact that the statute they’re using to defend their action is grounded in the antisemitic McCarthyist movement, and the value of seeing Jewish Americans stand up and fight for Mahmoud Khalil’s rights, wrapping up the interview by emphasizing the need to keep that momentum going, showing up in the streets to fight for Khalil and any other victims of the Trump regime. And in the Fun Half: Emma is joined by Brandon Sutton and Matt Binder as they unpack dweebs Tim Pool and Russell Brand’s fear of a real punk rock lifestyle (shoutout Against Me!), before talking to Rob from DC about calling our Senators. They also do some side-by-side comparisons of NYC candidates for Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Andrew Cuomo in their response to the abduction of New Yorker Mahmoud Khalil at the hands of the Trump administration, before listening to Tommy Tuberville explain why its fine to treat protesters this way, actually, and watching economists struggle with explaining Trump’s tariff agenda. They also reflect a little more on Against Me! and trans identity with Ramona Frankenstein, before Mimi from Colorado delivers a plea to save our federal land, plus, your calls and IMs!

Wed, 12 March 2025
It's Hump Day! Sam speaks with Tariq Habash, former senior official at the Dept. of Education under President Biden, founder & director of the organization A New Policy, to discuss the Trump administration's actions taken regarding student loans. Then, he speaks with Dr. MarkAlain Dery, infectious disease specialist, founder of community radio station 102.3 WHIV-FM, and creator of the NoiseFilter podcast, to discuss the recent measles outbreaks in Texas & New Mexico. First, Sam runs through updates on Europe’s retaliatory tariffs, public backlash to Trump’s handling of the economy, the House’s passage of a Continuing Resolution as the fight moves to the Senate, Trump’s slashing of the DOE, Trump’s $100m Tesla deal, Trump’s disappearing of Columbia student and permanent US resident Mahmoud Khalil, Ukraine’s support for a ceasefire, the DOJ’s public corruption unit, and cuts to NOAA and the EPA, before expanding on the insane debate over the GOP’s “clean” Continuing Resolution, and why Senate Democrats are so willing to hand over the US government to Elon Musk. Tariq Habash then joins, first stepping back to walk through his experience working in Biden’s DOE before leaving in protest at the start of last year over the President’s support of Israel’s ethnic cleansing of Gaza, and unpack why the internal barriers to policy work so pushed him to establishing “A New Policy.” Moving forward, Habash explores why, despite Democrats’ desires, the issue of the ethnic cleansing of Gaza will not go away under Trump, with his dreams to fully redevelop the Gaza strip in his own immaged backed by his revamping of Israel’s assault and a domestic crackdown (including full-on dissappearings) of pro-Palestinian activism, with the recent abduction of Mahmoud Khalil working as Trump’s perfect crime to wage war on the rights of Black and Brown permanant residents – capitalizing on Democratic Leadership’s commitment to genocide to minimize dissent from the opposition. Shifting to the domestic policy side of things, Tariq brings Sam through Trump’s attack on the DOE, walking through the department’s long history as a Civil Rights agency, before diving deep into Trump’s attack on the student loan and debt relief programs, which explicitly seek to target public service workers, and folks that work with trans folks, immigrants, or Palestinians. Wrapping up, Habash looks to the devastating impact Trump’s DOE cuts will have on special education in the US, and what to make of our major educational institutions fully acquiesing to the regime. Dr. MarkAlain Dery then jumps right into a clear assessment of RFK’s myriad destructive actions since being named HHS Secretary, from his lack of awareness about the ongoing measles crisis, to his cancelling of ACIP, and his backing of the all-around shutdown of any federal public health communications and much of its funding. After expanding on the fundamental problem with focusing on mitigating rather than preventative care, Dr. Dery walks Sam through the importance of a public health regime when it comes to addressing large-scale health issues facing the American public, pulling from his own recent work in New Orleans, before looking toward the biggest threats he sees facing the US’ weakened public health infrastructure, including the threat of an ever-mutating bird flu, and the recent bubblings of hantavirus. Wrapping up, Dr. MarkAlain Dery reemphasizes that we have the capacity to fight against these threats, despite doubts about the current administration. And in the Fun Half: Sam dives into the outcome of the Democratic Party and mainstream media’s complete acquiesence to the right wing’s transphobic fearmongering, with Trump’s regime implementing a full scale erasure and attack on trans identity and community, looking to Rep. Keating’s complete takedown of Rep. Keith Self’s blantant and direct misgendering of Rep. Sarah McBride. After expanding on Trump’s recent $100m commercial deal with Tesla, and diving deep into Krystal Ball’s coverage of Tesla’s fraud allegations out of Canada, Sam and the MR Team dive deep into Sam’s debate over social security on Jubilee. Tabatha from Central Mass calls in to unpack what trans care for your child actually looks like, plus, your calls and IMs!

Tue, 11 March 2025
It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma speak with Lindsey Boylan, former government official, to discuss Andrew Cuomo's recent announcement that he'll be running for Mayor of New York. First, they run through updates on Trump’s trade war and the related economic turmoil, the GOP’s impending government shutdown, the attempted deportation of Columbia University student Mahmoud Khalil, Ukraine’s offensive on Moscow, Rubio’s small ask to Ukraine (give up your land to Russia), the NIH’s anti-vax pivot as RFK blames measles on nutrition, Trump’s attacks on the ACA, SCOTUS’ approach to conversion therapy bans, legal pushback to DOGE and OPM, and the dropping net work of Trump’s billionaire backers, before expanding on the incredible showing in support of Mahmoud Khalil at Foley Square in NYC yesterday, contrasted with Long Island politician Bruce Blakeman attempt to push blatantly false, islamophobic conspiracy, with no evidence to back himself up. Lindsey Boylan then joins, first walking through her own background working former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, beginning in 2016 and making her way up to a senior member of his team and special advisor, all while Cuomo consistently exercised his station to maintain a culture of sexual harrassment and exploitation, tackling her own experiences with Cuomo’s sexual misconduct. After briefly jumping back to today to unpack the astonishing embrace of (or, at least, acquiesence to) Andrew Cuomo by New York politicians in the wake of his announced campaign for Mayor, Boylan, Sam, and Emma dive deep into the extensive investigations into Cuomo’s administration by the city, state, and federal government, all of which confirmed a minimum of a dozen victims of Cuomo’s abuses, and how the following suits from his victims – including both a woman younger than his daughters and the state trooper charged with taking a bullet for him – has resulted in Cuomo leveling $60 million of taxpayer money to harrass, demean, and discredit his accusers and their families. Lindsey ealso xplores Cuomo’s still-existent path to victory in his fight against accountability, with Cuomo using America’s refusal to address sexual harrassment beyond civil charges to further discredit these cases, while the campaign of lawfare and public harrassment continues with little-to-no pushback from the Democratic establishment, wrapping up by touching on the importance of leaving the former governor off of your fully-ranked ballot in the NYC primary this year. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma struggle to empathize with Elon Musk’s multi-billion dollar losses and ongoing business struggles amid his attempted takeover of the US government, before watching Newsmax host Rob Schmitt attempt to defend Trump’s economic turmoil. They also dive deep into Sam’s appearance on Jubilee and the absurd attempts by the online right to reconcile the idiocracy of their movement, before watching RFK cuck himself to the Trump Administration hazing ritual as he digs into fast food and makes fun of dying turtles, plus, your calls and IMs!

Mon, 10 March 2025
Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Dr. Keon West, visiting professor of political science at the London School of Economics, to discuss his recent book The Science of Racism: Everything You Need To Know But Probably Don't-Yet. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the Canadian prime ministership, the GOP’s impending government shutdown, Trump’s attack on Columbia University, Columbia University’s wilful aiding of Trump’s disappearing of a student activist, Israel’s cutting of electricity o Gaza, Canadian tariffs, Trump’s egg problem, Trump’s recession problem, the Trump administration’s legal woes, DOGE’s unsurprising attack on Child Support, and the continuing spread of measles, also highlighting the Trump Administration’s attempts to preemptively defend the recession and economic chaos they are about to reign on the US (and the world). Dr. Keon West then joins, diving right into his data-driven approach to highlighting the existence of racism, and how we can (and have) run experiments to test for differential treatment on the grounds of race (and nothing but race), highlighting various experiments displaying blantant racial descrimination in hiring practices, pre-elementary child education, and the medical industry, as he, Sam, and Emma walk through the minimal role the race of the descriminator plays in these situations, and why, despite mainstream narratives, many of the biases being displayed are concious and active. After expanding the conversation to include the extensive data behind the racial descrimination in contemporary American policing, and unpacking the lie of the “Black on Black crime” narrative, Dr. West steps back to tackle the ebb and flow of racial descrimination over time, with the last four hundred years seeing a drastic evolution in racial biases, tracing periods of particularly extreme racism to both economic straing and the platforming and normalization of this bigotry by sociopolitical leaders. Dr. Keon West, Sam, and Emma also discuss the importance of centering on society’s overwhelming discomfort with racism (even when exercising it), what it means to do something about racism, and what to make of the fraudulant attacks on the admittedly problematic policy of DEI, before wrapping up by highlighting the role of clear data analysis – rather than vague appeals to authority – in helping push people away from bigotry. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch the Right-wing media apparatus explain exactly why skyrocketing egg prices aren’t Trump’s fault – unfortunately contradicting much of their coverage over the last few years – also tackling Trump’s attack on the law firms attempting to challenge him, and the GOP’s ongoing push to pass a continuing resolution that would allow them to make cuts to the budget without negotiation. They also parse through Democratic leadership’s ongoing struggle to act like an opposition party, contrasting the likes of Schumer and Jeffries with Bernie’s astoundingly successful tour campaigning against the Trump Administration, before highlighting the Trump Adminstration’s disappearing of a permanent US resident (with some help from Columbia University) and Gov Newsome’s recent bigoted-bridge-building session with Charlie Kirk, with some help from Emma’s apperance on MSNBC over this weekend. After briefly fact-checking Jimmy Dore’s recent climate-denial musings, they wrap up by touching on the potential hacking of Twitter by activist group Anonymous, plus, your IMs!

Fri, 7 March 2025
Happy Friday! Sam and Emma chat with Ryan Grim, reporter at and co-founder of Drop Site News, co-host of Counter Points, to round up the week. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Trump’s tariff flip-flops, Elon Musk’s role in the Trump Administration, government job creation, the NLRB, Trump’s federal fund freeze, GOP’s surveilance state, US consulate shutdowns, the DOD’s segregationist move, Elon’s rocket fiascos, the CDC’s measles rehires, TSA labor rights, and Democratic Leadership’s anger over… protests against Trump? They also touch on Trump’s complete confusion over fundamental immigration law amid another authoritarian power trip. Ryan Grim then joins, as he, Sam, and Emma first attempt to tackle the insanity of Trump’s nonsensical economic agenda grounded in... repeated but (so far) brief stints of tariffs against our closest trade partners, looking to Greek Economist and politician Yanis Varoufakis’ attempt to define Trump’s economic ideology by its desire to spur US exports via economic turmoil and dollar depreciation, with this ongoing tariff war against Canada and Mexico supposedly serving to show Europe we mean business… despite it obviously making the agenda (and the man pushing it) look unserious, weak, and ineffective. After briefly touching on the possibility of this tariff scheme to serve as an repeatable pump-and-dump scam, Grim and the MR Crew dive deep into Joe Rogan’s Billionaire Experience podcast, as they assess the ridiculousness of the blatant lies and wild conspiracy spread by Joe’s Big Tech buddies, attacking everything from the CFPB to Frank Zappa, before shifting to some hope-inspiring GOP infighting as Elon Musk’s path-of-destruction begins to haunt the cabinet faithful carrying out his orders. Wrapping up, Ryan, Sam, and Emma look to the ongoing struggle of Democratic leadership to act like an opposition party, and explore the potential of an actual challenge to the Democratic establishment. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma tackle Al Green’s killer appearance on Democracy Now! in the wake of his across-the-aisle censuring over his protest of Trump’s speech to a joint Congress, and parse through the stupidity of right-wing grifters who still can’t grasp the concept of taxation. Mr. Flamboyant from Sonoma County unpacks Dem messaging, Rusty from Sacramento on Rep. Ami Bera’s vote to censure Al Green, Patricia from Central Coast discusses the GOP’s commitment to Musk’s money, and Owen, the final California caller of the day, explores pressuring progressive Dems on challenging leadership. Ben Shapiro tries to find an expired culture war to revamp his relevancy, Caleb from Arkansas touches on community gardening and mutual aid, and Misty from Washington talks about Bernie’s online influence and that pesky issue of Dem messaging, plus, your calls and IMs!

Thu, 6 March 2025
It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! She speaks with Hal Singer, economics professor at the University of Utah, to discuss Trump's recent tariff threats. Then, she speaks with Cea Weaver, tenant organizer with Housing Justice For All and director of the New York State Tenant Bloc, to discuss the rent freeze campaign the organizations are working on. First, Emma runs through updates on the US’ devastating jobs numbers as Trump plans to cut more federal workers, DOJ’s threat to USAID workers, the dropping stock market, Trump’s attack on the DOE, the GOP’s attack on Medicaid, the censuring of Al Green, Senate Dems’ decision to overturn Biden’s crypto regulations, Trump’s attacks on Ukrainian refugees and Gaza, Smotrich’s visit to Washington, and Barnes and Noble's big labor wins, before watching James Comer attempt to discipline Ayanna Pressley for… submitting evidence about migrant lawfulness. Professor Hal Singer then joins, jumping right into an assessment of the “chaos and anxiety” spurred by the Trump Administration’s economic and employment policies of destroying the federal government, and the long-term ramifications of straight up deleting financial protections for Americans, before shifting to the topic of Trump’s indiscriminate tariffs, and his guiding strategy in all negotiations (domestic or foreign) of all stick-no carrot. After expanding on the shady relationship between Trump and his Big Tech crypto backers – particularly in the wake of an announced crypto reserve – and the dearth of economic theory to back his ongoing agenda, Professor Singer wraps up by highlighting the Democratic Party’s need to return to policies centered on uplifting the working class’ economic and labor power. Next, Cea Weaver and Emma dive deep into the ongoing push for a rent freeze for NYC’s nearly one million rent-stabilized units, walking through the role it has already played among the Democratic primary in this year’s Mayoral race, with myriad candidates coming out in support of a data-backed plan to reverse the tide of overwhelming rent inflation that has been, and threatens to continue to push out native, working-class New Yorkers. After expanding on the diverse and expansive coalition of constituents involved in this fight, and exploring how, exactly, rent-stabilized units are hit by rent inflation (hint: Andrew Cuomo), Weaver wraps up with a final assessment of the current state of the NYC Mayoral race, and what a ranked ballot could look like.

Wed, 5 March 2025
It's Hump Day! Sam and Emma speak with Adam Green, co-founder of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee (PCCC), to recap Trump's joint address to Congress from last night. Then, they're joined by Saikat Chakrabarti, candidate for Congress in California's 11th district, to give some updates on his campaign. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Trump’s speech to a joint session of Congress, Trump’s attempted USAID shutdown, US aid to Ukraine, Blackrock’s new move on Panama Canal, Trump’s IRS cutdown, the firesale of federal properties, Trump v. judges, and OPM’s mismanagement, before expanding on Democrats’ varying protest tactics during Trump’s speech last night, with a highlight on Rep. Al Green’s message to get your hands off Medicaid. Adam Green then joins, jumping right into the complete fear of Democratic leadership to simply act, in any substantive manner, to stop or obstruct the Trump Administration, tackling leadership’s seeming inability to understand the threat his regime poses to the future of democratic governance in the US, and unpacking what the productive work of Democratic representatives has looked like. After diving deep into Trump’s insane breadth of Social Security lies that he fit into his joint session last night, and the direct contrasts we see between this ongoing fight and those under Bush (in 2005) and Obama (in 2013), Green also explores the strong disciplining force of Elon’s legitimate threat to primary any Republican that goes against Trump, something very much reflected in Trump’s own treatment of US allies. Next, Adam, Sam, and Emma parse through the ideal strategies moving forward, including emphasizing the GOP’s departure from their voters’ desires, the complete overstepping – both legally and financially – of Elon Musk, and the incredible devastation Trump’s funding freeze and mass firings have had on our federal workers, wrapping up the interview by discussing a theoretical “progressive” version of the Laken Riley Act. Saikat Chakrabarti then walks Sam and Emma through the trajectory of his career in Democratic politics, beginning with Bernie in 2016 and helping to run AOC’s campaign amid a push for a growing progressive movement, as he explores the mainstream Democratic Party’s ongoing failure over the last decade to offer any transformative vision amid a rocketing cost of living, rampant inequality, and a growing fascist movement. After expanding on the parallels we see with the rise of fascism amid the inequality and crises of the 1930s, Chakrabarti looks to the modern day as he unpacks an ongoing push to expand the fight to unseat status-quo-oriented Democratic Leadership like Nancy Pelosi, and how we can support that effort! And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Trump and Chief Justice John Roberts shove the subtlety to the side as they celebrate their successful coup, reflect on Dan Bongino and Pete Hegseth’s previous musings on the “leftist” investment firm Blackrock now that they’re teaming up to take over the Panama Canal, and Josh in San Diego asks how to address the Democratic inclination to punch left. Tim Walz shows Democratic leadership how to set an agenda (and a narrative), Leftist Big Pharma Plus unpacks Trump’s changes to the US healthcare apparatus and student debt, and Fox News solves the egg crisis (buy chickens, raise them at home). David from Spain on the recent evolution of fascism in the US and Spain, Ricky from San Diego on Chinese labor relations, and Mike from Colorado on messaging to mainstream Dems. The MR Crew also parses through Elisa Slotkin’s telling Democratic response to Trump, lifting up noted proponents of democracy and liberalism, Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush, plus, your calls and IMs!

Tue, 4 March 2025
It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma break down the biggest headlines of the day. First, they run through updates on the free-fall of the markets amid Trump’s tariffs, Trump’s cut off of aid to Ukraine, Trump’s joint session, state-level Democrats’ defense of trans athletes, a USAID report on the child death they prevent, SCOTUS’ weakening of the Clean Water Act, DOGE’s attack on NOAA, Trump’s assault on Social Security, and Trump’s incoming attacks on DOE and US forests, also discussing the possibility of Democratic Leadership finally coming around on acting like an opposition party over the GOP’s government shutdown. They also watch JD Vance give an emotionally vivid recounting of his and Trump’s harrowing showdown with Zelenskyy, expand a little on Trump’s upcoming joint session (NOT a State of the Union), and Israel’s ongoing shutdown of aid to Gaza, before parsing through Trump’s insane new crackdown on protest and free speech, heartily backed by RFK. Sam and Emma highlight the Dow Jones going into free-fall just as Trump made his tariff announcements and Trump’s ongoing attack on the Social Security Administration, before shifting to the state of the Democratic Party, with leadership finally turning a corner on *not* helping Trump pass his agenda, and wrapping up with Richie Torres’ insane announcement of a bipartisan Crypto Caucus And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma check in on self-proclaimed creeps Rahm Emmanuel and Bill Maher as they talk peeping on women in relation to… the Chicago Mayorship. The anti-vax community is outraged at RFK’s decision to change course from not trying to prevent measles, to trying to prevent measles, and the MR Team dives deep into Sam’s recent appearance on Piers Morgan with health quack Julian Michaels and Russian asset Benny Johnson, plus, your IMs!

Mon, 3 March 2025
Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Van Jackson, senior lecturer in international relations at Victoria University of Wellington in New Zealand and writer of the Un-Diplomatic newsletter on SubStack, to discuss his recent book The Rivalry Peril: How Great-Power Competition Threatens Peace and Weakens Democracy, co-authored with Michael Brenes. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Trump’s tariffs on Mexico and Canada, fallout from the Trump/Vance confrontation with Zelenskyy, Trump’s attempt to cook the books on the US GDP, Trump’s newest crypto scam, US-based money laundering, RFK’s measles dance, Marco Rubio’s billions for Israel, Trump assault on Social Security, the DHS’ IRS scheme, and the Mayoral Campaign of noted sex pest Andrew Cuomo, also admiring the full-throated spinelessness of GOP representatives Kieth Self and Roger Marshall when faced with constituent backlash at Town Halls. Van Jackson then joins, diving right into the effective myth the US has built up around the Cold War as a beneficial struggle between two great powers, a belief central to the evolution of the US’ counter-insurgency-focused regime of primacy that has developed in the power vacuum left by the Soviet Union, and why the US Foreign policy apparatus has been so resolute, from the Cheneys to the Biden Administration, in pivoting to a new great power struggle with China. Expanding on this, Jackson walks through the last couple of decades of US-China hawkery, with the shrinking dividends of Neoliberal globalization pushing both the US and Chinese economies toward economic nationalism, with the US establishment frantically attempting to cling to a dying world order of complete US primacy, as it corrupts and reshapes our politics domestically while contributing to death and destruction globally. After tackling how the Trump to Biden to Trump 2.0 pipeline effectively streamlined the US’ commitment to an anti-China pivot, and why Trump’s buddies in Silicon Valley are set to benefit greatly from this tension, Van, Sam, and Emma wrap up by touching on the greater imperialist nature of Trump’s foreign policy, and why US-Chinese relations have trapped much of the developing world into choosing between Chinese lending power and American hegemony. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch the new state-backed-media (the Joe Rogan Experience) clear the stage to let Elon Musk lie to the American public about what the Trump/Musk regime is up to (and why), and listen to Marjorie Taylor Greene’s boytoy attempt to confront Zelenskyy about his fashion sense. They also parse through the ongoing crypto fraud of the Trump/Musk regime, and the insanity of Trump’s push to use Crypto as a strategic reserve, plus, your calls and IMs!

Fri, 28 February 2025
Happy Friday! Sam and Emma speak with Heather Digby Parton, contributing writer at Salon.com and proprietor of the blog Hullabaloo, to round up the week in news. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Trump’s cuts to the Social Security Administration, Musk’s attacks on NOAA, the devastating effect of Trump’s gutting of USAID, FEMA’s struggles, Bird Flu, the Pentagon’s trans ban, Trump’s tariffs, and MAGA confusion about Trump releasing an edited Epstein file, before expanding on the GOP’s ongoing attacks on Medicaid and Social Security, highlighted by the obvious attempt to revamp the demonization of people who receive government benefits. Digby then joins, jumping right into the genuinely astonishing divide between federal and state-level Democrats’ ability to function as an opposition party, with Democrats in New York, California, and the Midwest embarrassing national leadership when it comes to preparing (or caring) to fight the Trump administration. Parton, Sam, and Emma also reflect on the coalescing of Big Tech and the Heritage Foundation, dissect some of Elon Musk’s deeper desires for collecting Americans’ data, and assess the chokehold the Musk-Trump regime has on the rest of the Republican Party – from the threat of a primary to the active disregard of their voters’ wishes. After touching once more on the impotence of national Democratic leadership (Hakeem Jeffries) in contrast with state-level leaders (Governor Walz), Digby and MR wrap up by diving deep into Trump’s insane authoritarian confrontation with Ukraine President Zelenskyy during a live press conference today. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Kaitlan Collins stump Mike Johnson with confusing questions about “budgets” and “resolutions,” and cringe as Piers Morgan goes out of his way to rain shimmering showers of praise on Elon Musk (while just happening to defend his own wealth along the way), plus, your IMs!

Thu, 27 February 2025
It's an EmMajority Report Thursday! She speaks with Trita Parsi, Executive Vice President at the Quincy Institute For Responsible Statecraft, to discuss the U.S.'s recent turn against its allies and towards Russia and other world powers. Then, she speaks with Hanno Hauenstein, independent journalist based in Berlin, to recap the German election results from this past Sunday and what to look for going forward. First, Emma runs through updates on the decimation of USAID, Trump’s attacks on the EPA, DOGE’s fraud/waste/abuse, the looting of HUD, the FAA’s new pitch for Elon’s Starlink, the IRS, the GOP’s Medicaid cuts, RFK’s first US-based measles death, a new illness out of the Congo, and Israel’s escalations in the West Bank, before watching Trump make the whole cabinet bend the knee to Elon Musk in front of the press. Trita Parsi then joins, as he and Emma dive right into Trump’s immediate pivot on US-Russia and Ukraine relations, including siding with Russia and Israel on the UN stage and blanket rejecting criticism of Russia or a diplomatic track for the invasion of Ukraine, and the obvious and direct parallels with Biden’s unapologetic support for Israel, with Trump acting much more as an accelerant – rather than an opposite – to Democratic Party foreign policy. After touching on Sleepy Joe’s expansions on the Trump-era Abraham Accords, Parsi parses through Biden’s general effort on the global stage to undermine international law and American soft power in the lead up to a second Trump Administration, before wrapping up the interview with the impending response to Trump’s Gaza ethnic cleansing plan from Arab leaders in the region, and the importance of meeting Trump’s extreme plan with a bolder response: a Palestinian State. Hanno Hauenstein then joins, first briefly running through the rise and fall of Germany’s “Traffic Light coalition” between Social Democrats, Greens, and Neoliberals in the vacuum of Merkel’s coalition, until the growing threat of the far-right over the past few years saw the centrist coalition – like many other centrist governments in the West – attempt to co opt the extremist AfD’s talking points under softer, liberal language, unfortunately gutting their own popularity instead of AfD’s, with the party winning 20% of the vote. After expanding on AfD’s recent evolution, and the rest of the German right’s theoretical refusal to go into coalition with AfD, Hanno and Emma briefly touch on the genuine boost felt by the Left party in the recent election, dive much deeper into the collapse of the Social Democrats and Greens, and the major anti-Palestinian crackdown that has faced the German left over the last year and a half, before wrapping up by emphasizing the threat posed by a growing far-right in Germany.
