Kevin O'Leary (investor, entrepreneur, and Shark, ABC's “Shark Tank”) joins Chris Cuomo for a wide-ranging conversation about Donald Trump's economic challenges heading into the midterms, the escalating trade fight with Canada, and what America needs to compete in the AI and energy race. O'Leary argues that despite strong markets and corporate performance, Trump has a problem at the kitchen table: small-business owners and everyday Americans are still feeling the effects of high energy, food, and operating costs. He explains what he thinks Trump could change before November, including easing tariffs and focusing more directly on the economic pressures facing small businesses and the heartland. Chris and Kevin also dig into Trump's increasingly contentious relationship with Canada and Prime Minister Mark Carney, whom O'Leary calls “smart as hell.” They debate whether Trump's approach to tariffs and trade is ultimately hurting American interests, how Carney has benefited politically from standing up to Trump, and why the economic relationship between the U.S. and Canada makes a prolonged trade war difficult for both countries. Plus, O'Leary discusses his massive investments in energy and AI infrastructure and responds to the growing backlash against data centers over their use of water, power, and other community resources.  Join The Chris Cuomo Project on YouTube for ad-free episodes, early releases, exclusive access to Chris, and more: https://www.youtube.com/@chriscuomo/join Follow and subscribe to The Chris Cuomo Project on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube for new episodes every Tuesday and Thursday: https://linktr.ee/cuomoproject Save 20% on your first online Lucy order at https://lucy.co/CUOMO with promo code CUOMO!

Andrew Kolvet (spokesperson, Turning Point USA, and executive producer, “The Charlie Kirk Show”) joins Chris Cuomo for a wide-ranging debate over the future of Trump's MAGA movement, the economy, immigration, Islam, ICE, and the rise of the DSA on the left. Kolvet explains how a college student's complaint about a $20 burrito became a national political argument—and why he thinks Republicans risk making the same mistake as Democrats if they dismiss voters who say everyday life is still too expensive. Chris presses him on whether Donald Trump deserves the same criticism conservatives leveled at Joe Biden when voters felt the White House wasn't acknowledging their economic reality.  Chris and Andrew also clash over Muslim immigration and the role of Christianity in America, debate the Trump administration's immigration crackdown and the use of force by ICE, and examine whether Democrats are moving toward their own political transformation. Kolvet argues that the DSA could mount the same kind of “hostile takeover” of the Democratic establishment that MAGA carried out on the Republican Party, while Chris questions whether the movement's most extreme positions actually represent where Democratic voters are headed. They also discuss conspiracy culture and social media, including the attacks Kolvet and others at Turning Point faced after Charlie Kirk's death and why he believes online incentives are pushing Americans toward increasingly baseless conclusions.

John Pavlovitz (author, “A Bigger Table,” pastor, and Substack Writer, “The Beautiful Mess”) joins Chris Cuomo to examine how Donald Trump and MAGA have transformed conservative Christianity, why political identity has become so difficult to break, and whether Americans can still be persuaded out of increasingly extreme political camps. Pavlovitz argues that Christian nationalism has become a “Jesusless Christianity” built around power rather than the teachings of Jesus, and explains why he sees Trumpism as a cultic movement that has replaced traditional sources of moral authority with loyalty to one person. Chris and John also debate whether the left has its own problem with ideological purity, the rise of the DSA as an alternative to the Democratic establishment, and why frustration with the status quo continues to fuel political disruption. They discuss Chris's concern that Islamophobia could become MAGA's most effective distraction heading into the midterms, the difficulty of combating fear of Muslims in a country where many voters have little exposure to Islam, and what could happen if Americans lose faith in the legitimacy of the next election.   Join The Chris Cuomo Project on YouTube for ad-free episodes, early releases, exclusive access to Chris, and more: https://www.youtube.com/@chriscuomo/join Follow and subscribe to The Chris Cuomo Project on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube for new episodes every Tuesday and Thursday: https://linktr.ee/cuomoproject Learn more about your ad choices.

Chris Cuomo digs into the latest comments and questions from the YouTube community, taking on viewers who accuse him of going too easy on Donald Trump, being unfair to Zohran Mamdani, carrying water for Israel, and refusing to choose a political side. He also responds to a Trump voter who says he's abandoning the GOP over healthcare and affordability, and explains why the anger that originally drove people toward Trump was real—even if Trump ultimately failed to fix the system he promised to disrupt.Chris argues that MAGA has swallowed the Republican Party, questions a political culture where loyalty to Trump matters more than challenging your own side, and explains why he'd probably have millions more subscribers if he simply became another partisan voice. He also gets into criticism of Israel and Benjamin Netanyahu, what the government may really know about UFOs, growing resentment toward billionaires, and why Democrats need an economic agenda built around affordability, wages, healthcare and a system that works for more than the people at the top.Join The Chris Cuomo Project on YouTube for ad-free episodes, early releases, exclusive access to Chris, and more: https://www.youtube.com/@chriscuomo/joinFollow and subscribe to The Chris Cuomo Project on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube for new episodes every Tuesday and Thursday: https://linktr.ee/cuomoprojectProtect your family with life insurance through Ethos—get up to $3 million in coverage in as little as 10 minutes at https://ethos.com/cuomo Learn more about your ad choices.

Chris Cuomo breaks down six reasons MAGA's increasingly anti-Muslim rhetoric is both politically self-defeating and fundamentally at odds with American values, arguing that legitimate concerns about Islamist extremism are being used to cast suspicion on an entire religion.  Chris examines Nancy Mace's recent comments about Muslim elected officials, the critical difference between Islam and Islamism, and why collective blame has repeatedly produced some of the ugliest chapters in American history.  He also explains why targeting Muslim Americans could ultimately make the country less safe while handing MAGA's opponents an opportunity to make a much stronger argument about religious freedom, citizenship, and the Constitution.   Join The Chris Cuomo Project on YouTube for ad-free episodes, early releases, exclusive access to Chris, and more: https://www.youtube.com/@chriscuomo/join Follow and subscribe to The Chris Cuomo Project on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube for new episodes every Tuesday and Thursday: https://linktr.ee/cuomoproject Unlock your best hair, skin, and body with @iRestorelaser and HUGE savings on iRESTORE with code CUOMO at https://irestore.com/cuomo ! #irestorepod Learn more about your ad choices.

Chris Cuomo argues that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is doing exactly what Democrats have to do to beat MAGA in the midterms — and lays out the six changes she's signaling that every Democrat needs to make if they want to win. Chris walks through AOC's viral ABC News clip and explains why her shift toward reasonable messaging on public safety, crime, and coalition-building is exactly the pivot her party needs. Chris argues that extremism is dead as a winning strategy, and the only way to beat MAGA is to broaden the coalition, not narrow it.

Chris Cuomo argues that Perez Hilton's viral livestream this week and Todd Blanche's imminent confirmation as Attorney General are proof of the same broken system: one where the wrong agendas are being empowered at the expense of the public interest, and where profitability and loyalty consistently win out over responsibility and independence. Chris lays out the five sins of Todd Blanche and why they should have disqualified him from ever becoming Attorney General. Chris argues that Blanche isn't just the most conflicted AG pick in modern American history — he's a metaphor for the entire moment we're in, where there's no shame in the game and nothing is hidden anymore because the powerful don't feel they have to hide it.

Chris Cuomo explains why the viral exchange between CNN's Dana Bash and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. reveals a much bigger problem than the debate over vaccines. Using the interview as a case study, Chris breaks down why political conversations have become less about changing minds and more about reinforcing identities, why fact-checking alone often fails, and why so many of America's biggest debates now feel impossible to resolve. Chris also examines RFK Jr.‘s claims about vaccines, Anthony Fauci's role during the pandemic, Donald Trump's handling of COVID, Operation Warp Speed, the lab leak debate, immigration, Elon Musk, political tribalism, and why he believes the country's biggest challenge isn't a lack of facts -- it's the way Americans now process them.

Chris Cuomo explains why Anthony Fauci pleading the Fifth has become the latest political obsession—and why he doesn't think it changes much of anything. Chris breaks down what happened during Fauci's Senate testimony, why his lawyers advised him not to answer questions, why Trump continues to avoid the same scrutiny over the government's pandemic response, and what we've still failed to learn from COVID.  Chris also breaks down new polling on affordability, healthcare, immigration, and the economy, explaining why he believes politicians are focused on the wrong fights while Americans are focused on paying their bills. He discusses Trump's standing with voters, why affordability remains the defining issue for so many Americans, and why the conversation in Washington looks so different from the conversation happening around kitchen tables.

For decades, Americans have been told today's economy is simply the result of capitalism, globalization, or forces beyond anyone's control. Chris Cuomo argues that's not true. From housing affordability and healthcare to Wall Street, pensions, student loans, immigration, and AI, Chris breaks down the political choices that reshaped the American economy, and why he believes those decisions, not ideology, are the real reason so many people feel like the system is working against them.  Chris also explains why he believes Democrats are making a critical messaging mistake ahead of the midterms, the economic argument he thinks can actually move voters, and why the next great political fight won't just be over taxes or spending — but over who benefits from artificial intelligence, automation, and the next generation of American wealth.

Brian Krassenstein and Ed Krassenstein (writers, entrepreneurs, and political commentators) join Chris Cuomo for an extended conversation about the political battles shaping the next election—and the one issue they believe could matter more than anything else: AI. Chris, Brian, and Ed debate whether Democrats are missing their biggest opportunities against Trump, how Republicans continue to dominate the messaging battle, and why issues like voter ID, immigration, and affordability remain so difficult for Democrats to navigate. They also discuss whether AI should be treated as a public resource, what the technology means for jobs and the economy, and why the political fight that decides 2028 may have very little to do with Donald Trump.

Chris Cuomo breaks down why JD Vance is already blowing his chance at the presidency, why Trump's corruption just became his biggest political weakness, and why Democrats should be beating Trump by way more than they are heading into the 2026 midterms. Cuomo opens with a direct warning to Vance: step up or step off. The Vice President is either glossing over what everyone can see or outright pretending the Trump administration's failures aren't happening — and it's killing him with his own base. Cuomo argues Vance won't make it through the primaries if he doesn't figure out how to be honest with the American people. But the deeper story is about corruption. Cuomo walks through the polling — corruption is now a top-three issue for American voters, which has never been the case in modern polling history. That's not because voters got more sensitive. It's because Trump's corruption is more brazen than anything Americans have ever seen from a sitting president. Cuomo lays out the challenge: given all of this, why isn't Trump losing by more? Cost of living is voters' number one concern. Corruption is top three. ICE overreach is hurting the administration. The Iran war is dragging. Every underlying number tells the same story. Cuomo argues voters see what's wrong but aren't convinced Democrats will make it better — and that's where the midterms will actually be decided.

Brian Tyler Cohen (YouTube and podcast host, “No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen,” and author, “The Day After: How to Wield Power in a Post-Trump World”) joins Chris Cuomo to discuss why Democrats have a real opportunity heading into the midterms — and what they must do differently if they want to keep it. Chris and Brian break down why disruption is driving American politics, why Democrats are positioned to become the new insurgent party, and what happens if they actually win. They debate the filibuster, socialism, institutional reform, messaging, the future of the Democratic Party, and whether Trump's movement has fundamentally changed how politics works in America. Chris and Brian also discuss how to govern after victory, why political movements often lose their way once they're in power, and what lessons Democrats should learn from MAGA before it's too late.

Sen. Lindsey Graham's sudden death has prompted tributes from across the political spectrum, but Chris Cuomo argues that honoring someone's life doesn't mean ignoring their legacy. Chris examines Graham's remarkable rise from a difficult childhood to one of the most influential Republicans in Washington, while confronting the political transformation that defined his career. From calling Donald Trump a religious bigot during the 2016 campaign to becoming one of Trump's closest allies, Chris argues that Graham's evolution reflects a political system that rewards access, loyalty, and power over principle. Chris also explores January 6, the SAVE Act, Ukraine, Iran, Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu, Brett Kavanaugh, media coverage of Graham's death, and why he believes Graham's career should serve as a cautionary tale — not simply about one senator, but about what American politics increasingly rewards.

Graham Platner has suspended his Senate campaign following allegations of sexual assault that he continues to deny. Chris Cuomo argues that while Platner's campaign may be over, the political lesson is just beginning. From Donald Trump to Graham Platner to Mitch McConnell, Chris explains why both parties repeatedly make what he calls “deals with the devil”—embracing flawed leaders because they believe they can deliver power. He breaks down why Republicans tied themselves to Trump, why Democrats embraced Platner despite repeated warning signs, and why populist movements often lose themselves by elevating personalities over principles. Chris also examines Trump's attacks on NATO and Greenland, the ongoing Iran conflict, Dan Bongino and the Epstein controversy, Zohran Mamdani's rise, the affordability crisis, and why economic justice—not culture war politics—will determine America's political future.

Ian Bremmer (President & Founder, Eurasia Group and GZERO Media) joins Chris Cuomo to break down the biggest geopolitical and political questions shaping America today, from Iran and Israel to artificial intelligence, China, and the growing anti-establishment movement transforming U.S. politics. Bremmer explains why he believes there is no real Iran deal despite the White House's claims, what the ceasefire actually accomplished, why he sees Trump's strategy as a major foreign policy setback, and how the conflict could continue to affect inflation, energy markets, and the economy heading into the midterms. The conversation also explores Israel's security challenges, Benjamin Netanyahu's political future, and the strategic balance across the Middle East. The discussion then turns to AI, where Bremmer argues that governments are falling behind technology, why artificial intelligence is moving faster than regulation, how China is competing with the United States, and why AI could reshape national security, the economy, and the future of work. Finally, Chris and Ian examine the anti-establishment wave emerging in American politics, the shift toward economic populism, younger voters, and why the next political movement may look very different from MAGA.

As America marks its 250th birthday, Chris Cuomo argues that one institution has quietly done more than any other to preserve the country's constitutional system: the judiciary. Cuomo breaks down four recent Supreme Court cases that have generated intense political debate, explaining what the rulings actually said, why so many people misunderstood them, and what they reveal about the role of the courts in checking executive power. He also examines why America's founders created an independent judiciary, why that system continues to matter today, and why he believes the courts remain one of the strongest safeguards against political overreach.

Chris Cuomo argues that corruption—not inflation, immigration, or the culture war—is the issue that could reshape American politics. Using Jared Kushner's business dealings as a case study, Cuomo explains why he believes the Trump family's financial relationships deserve far greater scrutiny and why anti-corruption should become the defining issue of the next election. Cuomo examines Kushner's investments, foreign business ties, ethics concerns, and the broader question of whether America's political system has become too comfortable with public officials and their families profiting from power. He also explains why he believes Democrats are missing an opportunity by failing to make corruption the centerpiece of their political message, arguing that government integrity remains one of the few issues capable of uniting voters across the political spectrum.

Chris Cuomo breaks down why Stephen Miller's latest attack on Democrats may reveal more about MAGA's vulnerabilities than the opposition's. Cuomo argues that the populist anger that propelled Donald Trump to power hasn't disappeared—it has grown—and that the same frustrations driving voters today could ultimately be turned against Trump and the Republican establishment.   Cuomo also explains what New York City's recent elections say about the broader political landscape, why establishment candidates continue to struggle, and why voters increasingly favor outsiders over experience. Plus, he examines why “democratic socialism” has become such a difficult political brand, arguing that Democrats are making the right diagnosis about many of America's problems while handicapping themselves with language that alienates persuadable voters.   Join The Chris Cuomo Project on YouTube for ad-free episodes, early releases, exclusive access to Chris, and more: https://www.youtube.com/@chriscuomo/join Follow and subscribe to The Chris Cuomo Project on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube for new episodes every Tuesday and Thursday: https://linktr.ee/cuomoproject Save 20% on your first online Lucy order at https://lucy.co/CUOMO with promo code CUOMO!

Marjorie Taylor Greene (former U.S. Representative for Georgia's 14th Congressional District) joins Chris Cuomo for one of her most candid conversations yet, explaining why she believes Donald Trump has broken key promises to the MAGA movement, why she refuses to give unconditional loyalty to any politician, and why she says Trump—not her—is the one who changed. Greene discusses her growing disagreements with Trump, the future of MAGA, government spending, foreign policy, immigration, and the Jeffrey Epstein controversy that continues to divide Trump's supporters. She also shares details of conversations she had with Trump about the Epstein files, explains why she believes many voters feel betrayed by Washington, and argues that political leaders are demanding loyalty instead of delivering results. Cuomo and Greene debate whether MAGA is still the movement it once was, what happens when political identity becomes personal loyalty, and why so many Americans remain frustrated with both parties despite years of promises from Washington. The conversation also explores the midterms, populism, America's political future, and whether either party is addressing the issues that matter most to voters.

Chris Cuomo breaks down all 14 points in the Trump administration's Iran Memorandum of Understanding and explains why he believes the fine print tells a very different story than the public messaging. Cuomo walks point by point through what the memo says about sanctions relief, frozen assets, reconstruction funding, the Strait of Hormuz, military de-escalation, Iran's nuclear program, and the unresolved questions being pushed into later negotiations.   Cuomo argues that the memo is not a final deal, not a stronger version of the Obama-era Iran agreement, and not the nuclear breakthrough Trump claims it to be. He compares the 14 points to the JCPOA, explains why he sees the current framework as more about ending Trump's war and reopening the Strait than stopping Iran's nuclear ambitions, and lays out why he believes the agreement gives Iran major concessions before requiring meaningful action in return.  Join The Chris Cuomo Project on YouTube for ad-free episodes, early releases, exclusive access to Chris, and more: https://www.youtube.com/@chriscuomo/join Follow and subscribe to The Chris Cuomo Project on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube for new episodes every Tuesday and Thursday: https://linktr.ee/cuomoproject Get 15% off OneSkin with the code CUOMO at https://www.oneskin.co/CUOMO  #oneskinpod  Unlock your best hair & skin with @iRestorelaser and HUGE savings on iRESTORE with code CUOMO at https://irestore.com/CUOMO! #irestorepod Find LUCY near you at https://lucy.co/stores, or save 20% on your first online order at https://lucy.co/CUOMO with promo code CUOMO Learn more about your ad choices.

Chris Cuomo explains why a bizarre moment at UFC 250, when heavyweight fighter Josh Hokit declared “Michelle Obama is a man” during a post-fight interview, revealed something much bigger than a bad joke. Cuomo argues that MAGA has drifted away from the populist movement that once appealed to frustrated and disaffected voters and has instead become a spectacle centered on loyalty, grievance, and attention-seeking behavior.   Using the White House UFC event as a case study, Cuomo breaks down why he believes Trump's political movement is losing touch with the people it originally claimed to represent, why young men remain politically available to both parties, how corporate interests and political branding have replaced real populism, and why Democrats are missing a major opportunity if they focus on mocking MAGA voters instead of addressing the frustrations that drove many of them there in the first place.  Cuomo also discusses Graham Platner, Dan Bongino, Joe Rogan, the No Kings protests, Trump's Iran claims, healthcare costs, corporate power, and the growing gap between political rhetoric and economic reality.   Join The Chris Cuomo Project on YouTube for ad-free episodes, early releases, exclusive access to Chris, and more: https://www.youtube.com/@chriscuomo/join Follow and subscribe to The Chris Cuomo Project on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube for new episodes every Tuesday and Thursday: https://linktr.ee/cuomoproject Get $20 OFF the Waver Vibration Plate and Free Shipping at https://lifeprofitness.com with code CUOMO at checkout. #ad  Sign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial today at https://shopify.com/chrisc.

Chris Cuomo reacts to new inflation data showing consumer prices rose 4.2% in May—the highest level in three years—and explains why he believes the report could become Donald Trump's biggest political problem. Cuomo responds to Trump's claim that he “loves” the latest numbers and argues that voters care far more about what they're paying for gas, groceries, housing, and everyday necessities than any political talking point coming from Washington. Using the latest CPI report, Cuomo breaks down how rising energy costs, tariffs, and the economic fallout from the Iran conflict are putting pressure on consumers and small businesses. He explains why inflation has climbed back above 4%, why purchasing power matters more than stock market gains, and why he believes the midterms will ultimately be decided by one question: do Americans feel financially better off than they did before?

James Carville (political strategist & consultant) joins Chris Cuomo to explain why he believes Donald Trump poses a unique threat to America, why Democrats need to stop playing defense, and why he thinks it's time to go all-in against Trump and MAGA. Carville argues that Trump's actions are doing lasting damage to the country, while Cuomo challenges whether anger and escalation are actually the best path to winning elections. The two debate whether Democrats should focus on exposing Trump's behavior or offering a more compelling alternative, the political lessons of Bill Clinton, the future of the Democratic Party, the rise of James Talarico and Graham Platner, why voters forgive politicians they believe are fighting for them, the state of the 2026 midterms, and whether Trump's political movement is stronger or weaker than it appears. They also discuss media incentives, economic populism, and whether Democrats are missing the biggest opportunity in American politics today. #news #politics #trump #democrats #cuomo Join The Chris Cuomo Project on YouTube for ad-free episodes, early releases, exclusive access to Chris, and more: https://www.youtube.com/@chriscuomo/join Follow and subscribe to The Chris Cuomo Project on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube for new episodes every Tuesday and Thursday: https://linktr.ee/cuomoproject Head to https://cozyearth.com and use code CHRIS for an exclusive 20% off.

Chris Cuomo lays out what he believes are the three signs of a coming political apocalypse: Trump's transformation of MAGA into a movement centered on personal grievance and retribution, the rise of outsider candidates like Graham Platner who can survive scandals and scrutiny that would destroy traditional politicians, and the upheaval surrounding Scott Pelley's firing from 60 Minutes. Cuomo argues that each story reveals a deeper truth about where American politics is headed and why the old rules no longer seem to apply.   Cuomo explains what he calls the “Platner Paradox,” why anti-establishment populism is growing on the left as well as the right, and why voters increasingly care more about authenticity and disruption than traditional qualifications. He also examines Pelley's departure from 60 Minutes, CBS's settlement with Trump, the pressures facing legacy media, and why he believes journalism is being forced to reinvent itself. Throughout the episode, Cuomo argues that the forces that created MAGA have not disappeared—they are evolving—and that the next political movement may be even bigger than the one that brought Trump to power.

Chris Cuomo explains why he believes there will be no meaningful deal with Iran anytime soon, arguing that Trump's approach suffers from three major flaws: Iran's leadership doesn't trust him after he abandoned the original nuclear agreement, the United States entered this confrontation without the international coalition that made previous negotiations possible, and America lacks the political will to do what would actually be required to force regime change. Cuomo also challenges claims that Iran was only weeks away from a nuclear weapon and argues that the administration sold the public a far more urgent threat than the available intelligence supported. Cuomo breaks down the collapse of the JCPOA, the strategic importance of the Strait of Hormuz, Israel's role in the conflict, and why he believes military action has left the United States with fewer options rather than more leverage. He also argues that Democrats are missing an opportunity to challenge Trump politically, urging them to stop focusing on outrage and start making a direct case that Trump's foreign policy, tariffs, and economic decisions are making life harder for ordinary Americans. According to Cuomo, the real political fight isn't about convincing voters to be offended by Trump — it's about convincing them that his policies are failing. #news #politics #iran #trump #cuomo Join The Chris Cuomo Project on YouTube for ad-free episodes, early releases, exclusive access to Chris, and more: https://www.youtube.com/@chriscuomo/join Follow and subscribe to The Chris Cuomo Project on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube for new episodes every Tuesday and Thursday: https://linktr.ee/cuomoproject Get 30% off Soul Mood Gummies at https://GetSoul.com with promo code CUOMO.

Chris Cuomo explains why the Texas Senate race between Ken Paxton and James Talarico may be the clearest test yet of whether MAGA politics are finally colliding with economic reality. Cuomo argues that Republicans are increasingly leaning on culture-war outrage while voters become more focused on affordability, wages, healthcare costs, and economic frustration. He also breaks down why he believes Democrats may have finally found the right kind of anti-MAGA candidate in Talarico — and why Trump's decision to back Paxton could become a major political liability. Cuomo analyzes the messaging strategies behind both campaigns, Paxton's ethical baggage, Trump's influence over the Republican Party, and why he believes this race could become a national bellwether for the 2026 midterms. The episode also explores populism, culture wars, economic inequality, tariffs, Christian politics, the future of Democratic messaging, and why Cuomo believes voters are increasingly exhausted by outrage-driven politics. He argues that the core fight in American politics is no longer left versus right, but “MAGA versus reality” — and says this race may reveal whether Trump-style politics still works outside the Republican base. #news #politics #trump #maga #texas #cuomo Join The Chris Cuomo Project on YouTube for ad-free episodes, early releases, exclusive access to Chris, and more: https://www.youtube.com/@chriscuomo/join Follow and subscribe to The Chris Cuomo Project on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube for new episodes every Tuesday and Thursday: https://linktr.ee/cuomoproject Ready to reach your goals?

Chris Cuomo responds directly to viewers accusing him of ties to Jeffrey Epstein, calls out what he sees as blatant hypocrisy surrounding January 6, and warns against the growing number of Americans casually talking about political violence and civil war. He also explains why social media and “gotcha politics” are making it harder for people to think critically or engage in good faith. Joined by producer Greg Ott and engineer Amrish, Cuomo reacts to rapid-fire audience comments covering voter ID laws, ICE enforcement, COVID hindsight, Robert Mueller, distrust in institutions, and the economic frustrations driving American politics. He argues that both parties have lost focus on the issue that matters most to voters — purchasing power — while reflecting on how his own views have evolved over time on everything from voter ID to pandemic policy. Cuomo also discusses Trump's relationship with Wall Street, the pressure on the middle class, and why he believes modern politics increasingly rewards outrage over honesty. #news #politics #trump #epstein #january6 #cuomo Join The Chris Cuomo Project on YouTube for ad-free episodes, early releases, exclusive access to Chris, and more: https://www.youtube.com/@chriscuomo/join Follow and subscribe to The Chris Cuomo Project on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube for new episodes every Tuesday and Thursday: https://linktr.ee/cuomoproject Find LUCY near you at lucy.co/stores, or save 20% on your first online order at ⁠https://lucy.co/CUOMO with promo code CUOMO.

Chris Cuomo lays out the analogy he says explains this entire political moment: Ronald Reagan was Superman, and Donald Trump is Bizarro — the dark, distorted mirror image selling the same thing with none of the charm. Trump isn't original, Cuomo argues. He's running Reagan's playbook with all of the darkness and none of the optimism. Cuomo breaks down the structural parallels: the same supply-side economics, the same trickle-down promises that have never worked, and the same explosion of national debt — Reagan blew it up first, and under Trump the debt has now passed GDP for the first time in history. Where Reagan sold a shining city on a hill and played to the better angels, Trump sells anger, destruction, and outrage. Same pitch, opposite delivery — and Cuomo argues it's failing the same way it did in the Reagan midterms of 1982 and 1986. Drawing on his own family history — his father, Mario Cuomo, was the Democratic Party's most powerful answer to Reagan — Chris makes the case that the left won't beat Trump by matching MAGA's anger. The only thing that worked then and works now is being about better: better policies, real ideas on the chip economy, worker training, and small business, not just pointing out that the other side is corrupt.

Neil deGrasse Tyson (astrophysicist, “StarTalk” podcast host, and author, “Take Me to Your Leader: Perspectives on Your First Alien Encounter”) joins Chris Cuomo for a wide-ranging conversation on why the longtime UFO skeptic is finally taking the UAP conversation seriously — and what changed. Tyson explains why the recent wave of military whistleblowers and congressional hearings pushed him to engage with the UAP debate, even as he maintains that eyewitness testimony is not evidence. He breaks down the difference between believing that life likely exists elsewhere in the universe and claiming that extraterrestrials are visiting Earth, and argues that the burden of proof remains the same as in any other scientific question. Cuomo and Tyson also explore the intersection of science, religion, and human belief, from ancient aliens and crop circles to why people are drawn to ideas they want to be true. The conversation offers a skeptical but open-minded look at UFO disclosure, government secrecy, and what first contact with alien life might actually mean.

President Trump's state visit to China was over before he even left the ground. In his comments to reporters before departing for Beijing, Trump said he doesn't even consider Americans' financial situation when making foreign policy decisions — that the only thing that matters to him is keeping Iran from getting a nuclear weapon. That admission, paired with what's actually happening at this summit, is a campaign ad for the midterms. Chris breaks down why this trip was a failure before it started: the economic crisis Trump is ignoring at home, the Iran war that's bled his leverage, the Taiwan ask that reveals how China sees American weakness, and why the Democrats are still barely beating MAGA in the polls despite every economic metric going the wrong way.

Jeremy Corbell (investigative journalist and co-host, “Weaponized” podcast) joins Chris Cuomo to discuss the latest push for UAP transparency, the 46 military videos Congress wants released, and why he believes the public is closer than ever to learning what the government knows about unidentified anomalous phenomena. Corbell explains how he and veteran reporter George Knapp have spent years obtaining and publishing military footage of objects that appear to display extraordinary capabilities, including the now-famous Syria 2021 UAP video. He argues that the biggest obstacle is not a lack of evidence, but a system of classified programs and unelected officials who control what even presidents and members of Congress are allowed to see. Cuomo and Corbell also discuss the new documentary Sleeping Dog, which follows Corbell's work and the personal toll of pursuing one of the most controversial stories in modern journalism. The conversation explores why transparency matters, what disclosure could mean for science and national security, and whether the truth about UAPs could ultimately change how humanity sees itself.

Chris Cuomo lays out the top five ways Donald Trump is screwing the MAGA movement that put him in office — the fundamental failures that will define the midterms, not the daily noise. Chris walks through the death of America First, a war in Iran Trump promised he'd never start, the spending and debt that has betrayed every conservative principle, a healthcare crisis Trump is ignoring, and the way he has actively coarsened American politics itself. Cuomo argues that MAGA voters are being abandoned in real time by the man they trusted most — and that the populist demand that fueled MAGA in the first place is going to be looking for someone honest enough to meet it. Plus the bonuses Cuomo couldn't fit in the five: why Tucker Carlson is already distancing himself from Trump, what the Epstein files actually say about broken promises, and why the next iteration of the Republican Party may pretend Trump was never their guy.

Chris Cuomo uses the Met Gala as a jumping off point for a bigger argument about the midterms and the widening gap between those in power and the people they claim to represent. With Trump fumbling affordability, health care, and a war in Iran with no clear exit, Cuomo argues the opportunity to fight for working people has been handed to anyone willing to pick it up — and events like the Met Gala are proof that nobody in power seems ready to do it. His case isn't anti-rich or anti-fashion. It's that showing up in expensive outfits to celebrate among the elite — at an event sponsored by someone whose workers you claim to be fighting for — sends exactly the wrong signal at exactly the wrong moment. You can't bash the elitism and be the elitism at the same time. Cuomo also pushes back on the instinct to demonize the rich as a political strategy, arguing the real winning message is about fixing a system that doesn't make everyone play by the same rules — and reconnecting with the many instead of performing for the few.

Chris Cuomo reacts to the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey over a “86 47” seashell Instagram post and the controversy surrounding Jimmy Kimmel after his “expectant widow” joke about Melania Trump. Cuomo argues that going after figures like Comey and Kimmel over speech doesn't weaken them—it makes them more powerful. In his view, efforts by Donald Trump and his allies to punish critics through legal action or public pressure risk backfiring, turning political opponents into martyrs. He breaks down the broader pattern driving both stories: outrage, provocation, and attention are consistently rewarded in media and politics. Whether it's the Comey indictment or backlash to late-night comedy, Cuomo says the system incentivizes escalation instead of solutions. The bigger takeaway: while attention is focused on controversy, key issues like the economy, domestic policy, and “Fix America First” priorities are being pushed aside.

Chris Cuomo breaks down the aftermath of the White House Correspondents' Dinner shooting and why the response says more about the system than the event itself. Cuomo unpacks the Norah O'Donnell 60 Minutes interview where Trump was pressed on the shooter's manifesto, and asks why a network correspondent platformed the writings of a madman in the first place. He argues the violence wasn't just about one person or one moment — it's part of a broader pattern driven by what gets attention, clicks, and political advantage. From media coverage to political rhetoric, he says no one has real high ground, and everyone is incentivized to escalate rather than de-escalate. He examines how both sides react to moments like this, why outrage consistently outperforms reason, and how the algorithms amplify the most extreme voices. Cuomo also explains why he turned off comments on his own social media, and why focusing only on blame misses the bigger issue: a culture that rewards conflict and punishes nuance.

Ian Bremmer (President and Founder, Eurasia Group and GZERO Media) joins Chris Cuomo to break down where the Iran war is actually heading — and why the short-term politics are masking a much more serious long-term problem. Bremmer walks through the state of the ceasefire talks, the role Jared Kushner is playing in negotiations, and why Trump now has marginally more leverage than he did in the first round — but still not enough to get a deal that holds. He and Cuomo debate whether the Abraham Accords were a genuine diplomatic achievement or a business arrangement that lined Kushner's pockets, and what that history means for trusting the current process. The conversation turns to the economic consequences that are already unfolding — semiconductor shortages, jet fuel supply chains, LNG infrastructure damage, and the Strait of Hormuz — and why Bremmer argues these will take years to work through regardless of how Trump announces an exit.

Chris Cuomo breaks down the central claim driving the U.S. response to Iran: that the regime was on the verge of developing a nuclear weapon. Drawing on recent reporting and statements from international watchdogs, Cuomo argues that the timeline being presented publicly does not match the underlying facts. He explains the critical distinction between enriched uranium and a deployable nuclear weapon, and why conflating the two creates a sense of urgency that may not be justified. If the threat is as immediate as claimed, Cuomo asks, why stop short of removing the regime entirely? And if it isn't, what actually drove the decision to act now — and whether domestic pressures at home had more to do with the timing than the threat itself. Cuomo also examines the broader consequences of the strike: strained alliances, unclear objectives, and the risk of getting pulled deeper into a conflict without a defined endgame. He argues that the current approach delivers limited strategic benefit while increasing long-term costs, both abroad and at home.

Chris Cuomo argues that President Trump has “lost the plot” — focusing on Iran while missing the issues that matter most at home. He breaks down why the current approach to Iran may be strengthening the regime's influence rather than weakening it, and why the justification for urgency around nuclear threats doesn't fully hold up under scrutiny. Cuomo also explains how messaging failures and strategic missteps are shaping both the conflict and global perception. The larger point, he says, is about priorities: the real fight isn't overseas — it's affordability, healthcare, and the economic pressure facing Americans right now.

David Enrich (Deputy Investigations Editor, The New York Times) joins Chris Cuomo to break down what the Epstein files actually reveal and why the most important part of the story may be the money. Enrich explains how Epstein built and sustained his wealth, how major financial institutions continued doing business with him despite repeated red flags, and why following that money is key to understanding how his crimes were enabled for so long. He also addresses the gap between public expectations and the available evidence, including why many widely held theories haven't been substantiated. Cuomo and Enrich's conversation digs into what has come out so far, what still doesn't add up, and why accountability has been limited — not just legally, but across the institutions and individuals connected to Epstein's network.

Chris Cuomo breaks down the Iran conflict as a political moment rather than just a foreign policy story, arguing that the current cease-fire and ongoing tensions reflect instability — not resolution. He examines why Iran retains leverage despite recent developments, how the situation has evolved into a strategic stalemate, and why traditional arguments about the war are unlikely to move voters. Cuomo also critiques how both parties are responding, suggesting that the focus on the conflict itself is misplaced. Instead, he outlines what he sees as the real opportunity: a shift back to domestic priorities like affordability, economic pressure, and rebuilding trust with voters who feel left behind. The question, he argues, is whether political leaders will recognize that opening — or continue to fight the wrong battle. The Iran conflict isn't just about foreign policy — it's becoming a distraction from the issues voters actually care about at home, and a political opportunity that both parties may be missing.

Chris Cuomo breaks down President Trump's escalating threats to strike Iranian infrastructure if a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz isn't reached — and why he argues that approach would hurt civilians far more than the regime. He explains why bombing power plants, bridges, and critical systems is unlikely to trigger regime change, how the deadline strategy risks backfiring, and why the U.S. may already be stuck in a conflict with no clear exit. Cuomo also argues that both parties are missing the political reality at home — that voters care more about affordability, stability, and domestic priorities than another prolonged conflict abroad.

Chris Cuomo explores the real meaning of Easter, breaking down Holy Week, Passover, and the origins of religious tradition to argue that the core message has less to do with faith—and more to do with human behavior, forgiveness, and change. He examines how Christianity borrowed from earlier traditions, why symbols like Easter and resurrection predate religion, and what lessons actually matter now. Cuomo argues that “rebirth and renewal” isn't theological—it's natural law—and applies to anyone, regardless of belief. He connects that idea to personal accountability, regret, forgiveness, and the ability to move forward after failure. This episode moves away from politics and focuses on something more fundamental: how to deal with what you've done, what's been done to you, and what comes next.

Naftali Bennett (Former Prime Minister of Israel) joins Chris Cuomo to explain how Israel sees its war with Iran, Hezbollah, and Hamas — and why he believes stopping now would be more dangerous than continuing. Bennett argues that Iran's nuclear ambitions and regional proxy network left Israel with no real alternative but to act early, before the threat becomes unavoidable. He explains the difference between how Israel and the United States view Iran, why deterrence may not be enough, and what a realistic outcome of this conflict could look like. Cuomo presses Bennett on whether the strategy can actually succeed, what happens if the Iranian regime survives, and why Americans are increasingly skeptical of another prolonged conflict. Bennett also addresses criticism of Israel in the U.S., the role of American support, and his vision for Israel's political future as a possible successor to Benjamin Netanyahu.

Chris Cuomo brings together key moments from this week's Cuomo Mornings on SiriusXM, featuring conversations with Representative Ryan Zinke (R-MT) and former Senator Joe Manchin (I-WV), along with calls from listeners reacting to America's growing conflict with Iran. Zinke argues the threat remains urgent, warning that Iran's nuclear capability and stated intent make it dangerous to step back too soon. Cuomo presses whether continued involvement can realistically eliminate that threat—or if the U.S. risks getting pulled deeper into a conflict with no clear end. Manchin focuses on the endgame, arguing that any lasting solution depends on regional partners and that the U.S. cannot stay indefinitely or attempt to control Iran's future. Callers challenge the case for continued conflict, question how foreign policy connects to issues at home, and raise frustrations about government spending, political priorities, and accountability.

Chris Cuomo explains why the partial government shutdown is no longer a partisan stalemate but a political strategy — and why Trump now owns the outcome. From a rejected deal to the role of the SAVE Act, Cuomo walks through how both sides are calculating advantage while the real-world impact builds, from strained systems like TSA to broader government breakdown. He also looks at what this moment says about how Washington operates when winning matters more than governing.

Chris Cuomo breaks down why the current conflict with Iran could escalate far beyond what the White House is anticipating. Cuomo argues that the real danger isn't just the initial strike, but everything that follows — from Hezbollah re-engaging along Israel's northern border to instability across the Middle East and the risk of global escalation. He lays out how choke points like the Strait of Hormuz could disrupt trade, why proxy groups matter more than ever, and how quickly this could expand beyond a regional conflict. At the center of the analysis is a key question: what happens when a war is started without a clear plan for how it ends — or who gets pulled in next?

Cameron Khansarinia (Chief of Staff to Reza Pahlavi, the exiled son of Iran's last monarch and a leading figure among opposition groups) joins Chris Cuomo to break down whether regime change in Iran is actually possible — and what could come next. Khansarinia explains why he believes the current moment presents a real opportunity for change, arguing that many Iranians oppose the regime but lack the conditions to act. He outlines how opposition efforts are being organized, what role Reza Pahlavi is trying to play, and why some believe a transition is more realistic than it appears from the outside. Cuomo presses him on the biggest risks: whether the opposition is truly unified, what happens if the regime collapses, and whether outside pressure from the U.S. or Israel helps or complicates the situation. The conversation also explores how ordinary Iranians are experiencing the conflict — and how different that reality is from what Americans typically see.

Chris Cuomo travels to Israel's border with Lebanon to show why the northern front may matter as much as anything happening inside Iran.From kibbutzim turned into fortified communities to schools outfitted with bulletproof glass, Cuomo documents how life has changed in northern Israel as Hezbollah attacks continue and the conflict expands beyond airstrikes and political messaging. He speaks with residents and local leaders about what it means to live within seconds of incoming fire, the fear of infiltration, and the reality of raising children in what has become an active war zone.Cuomo also explains why Lebanon is central to understanding where this war goes next. As Hezbollah escalates and the IDF deepens its campaign in southern Lebanon, the conflict is no longer just about Iran from above — it is also about what happens on the ground along Israel's northern border, and how long that fight may last.

Chris Cuomo reports from Israel as the war with Iran continues to escalate, offering a perspective that looks very different from the debate happening back in the United States. Cuomo explains why Americans are viewing the conflict primarily through politics and media narratives, while people in the region see it as an existential fight playing out in real time. He breaks down the competing motivations behind the war — from security fears and regional power struggles to domestic political optics in Washington. At the center of the debate is a question rarely asked in American coverage: who actually decides when this war ends? Cuomo examines the strategic calculations driving Israel, the messaging coming from the Trump administration, and how perception, politics, and power are shaping the conflict.

Max Amini (comedian and actor) joins Chris Cuomo to talk about what the world misunderstands about Iran and the people who live there. Born in Arizona to an Iranian family and raised partly in Iran, Amini describes what it was like growing up between two cultures — experiencing both the warmth of Persian culture and the repression of the Islamic Republic. He explains the “double life” many Iranians live under the regime, the difference between the Iranian people and their government, and why Western audiences often get the country's identity wrong. Cuomo and Amini also discuss cancel culture in comedy, the pressure artists face in a social media age, and how propaganda and political messaging shape how Americans view the Middle East. Amini argues that storytelling — even through comedy — can help bridge cultural misunderstandings and bring attention to the reality of life inside Iran. The conversation also touches on the Iranian revolution, the role of the regime in fueling regional conflicts, and why Amini believes the Iranian people deserve to have their story told beyond the stereotypes often seen in the news.
