Podcast appearances and mentions of Al Gore

This week on Hashtag History, we will be discussing the 2000 Presidential Election Recount, also known as Bush v. Gore, since this case did go all the way up to the Supreme Court who was ultimately responsible for making the landmark decision about who would become the president of the United States that fateful year. Why did this election go all the way up to the Supreme Court? Well, that would be because the results of the 2000 presidential election in the State of Florida showed that Republican nominee George W. Bush had beat Democrat nominee Al Gore by a mere 537 votes (537 votes across the whole state!!!), automatically triggering a recount due to how close those results were. Al Gore requested a manual recount due to several irregularities across counties in Florida about which ballots were considered valid and which were not. He only requested this of some counties though, causing the Supreme Court to take the case and decide that the manual recounts should be halted because – by their logic – targeting specific counties disenfranchised voters. Gore was forced to concede Florida to Bush and, with that, Bush – who did not win the popular vote – received the required electoral votes and became the 43rd President of the United States. This was not decided, however, until December 12th of that year. The results of the presidential election were not known until thirty-five days after Election Day!There is so much more than all of that to talk about. Like the fact that – oh, I don't know – the Governor of Florida at the time was Bush's brother. Or the fact that the Supreme Court explicitly said in their final decision that this case was not to be applied to any future cases and should not be used as precedent. Which, like, isn't that the point of the US Supreme Court? To set precedent?Join us to learn all about all of that and so much more!Follow Hashtag History on Instagram @hashtaghistory_podcast for all of the pictures mentioned in this episode.Citations for all sources can be located on our website at www.HashtagHistory-Pod.com.

In this episode of the Explaining History Podcast, we are joined by David F. Walbert, a veteran voting rights attorney whose new book, Stealing Elections American Style, traces the long, sordid history of contested and corrupted elections from the mid‑19th century to the present day.David's career spans decades of litigation on voting rights cases, beginning in the early 1970s when he moved to Georgia and discovered that despite the Voting Rights Act, African American representation in elected office was staggeringly low. The problem was not voter registration – Black and white registration was near parity – but structural devices that allowed white majorities to control every election outcome.We explore the origins of the "Southern strategy" – the explicit deal struck by Richard Nixon in 1968 with the white South: electoral votes in exchange for Supreme Court justices hostile to civil rights. That strategy, David argues, is the genesis of the ongoing assault on voting rights, culminating in the 1980 Supreme Court decision that nearly shut down vote dilution cases – and the subsequent effort to amend the Voting Rights Act in 1982.The conversation moves to the stolen election of 1876 – perhaps the most flagrant in American history – where Rutherford B. Hayes was awarded the presidency despite losing the popular vote, through the systematic throwing out of Democratic precincts in Louisiana. The parallels to the present are striking.David also discusses the evolution of voter suppression tactics, the spread of white racist ideology from the South to the North, and the alarming infiltration of election denialists into state and local election apparatuses. He warns that the next close election – particularly in the House and Senate – could be decided not by voters, but by partisan politicians in Congress, a prospect that threatens the very foundation of American democracy.Topics covered:David's career litigating voting rights casesThe Voting Rights Act and its amendmentsThe Southern strategy and its consequencesThe stolen election of 1876 (Tilden vs. Hayes)George W.

Original Air Date: March 30th, 2026 In this fresh clip, the man who's been wrong for three decades is at it again, solemnly declaring that some climate damage is already “not reversible” while warning it's “probably inevitable that we're going to see Greenland go and the west Antarctic ice sheet go.” He tells us the world's shallow coral reef systems are “very much in danger,” so if you want to see them, you'd better “get scuba certified immediately” — right before casually throwing in that New Orleans might need saving too. Gore admits the most dangerous impacts are “still avoidable and preventable” if we just “stop using the sky as an open sewer for this civilization-destroying pollution”… because apparently the same scientists whose 20-year-old doomsday predictions he now calls “dead right” have suddenly nailed it this time. No new data, no evidence, just the same recycled panic, the same furrowed brow, and the same urgent plea to trust him — again. Same Gore, same script, different decade. The ice sheets, the reefs, and the sky are all doomed… unless you buy what he's selling. Classic.

What happens when artificial intelligence, government power, China, climate politics, and human vulnerability collide? This week on Breaking Battlegrounds, Chuck Warren and Sam Stone are joined by journalist Juan David Rojas, attorney and AI ethics fellow Devan Patel, and historian Dr. Jody Edward Ginn. Plus, B's Crime Corner examines the tragic Lindsay Clancy case and the role postpartum psychosis played in one of the most disturbing cases in recent years. Juan David Rojas joins the show to discuss climate politics and the political shift taking place across Latin America. Juan recalls watching Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth as an elementary school student in Florida and the fear created by some of the film's predictions about hurricanes, flooding, and climate change. While acknowledging the broader concerns surrounding climate change, he argues that exaggerated predictions and partisan messaging can undermine public trust. Juan also explains why failed energy policies may be helping fuel a conservative resurgence across Latin America, particularly in oil-dependent nations where left-wing governments have attempted to rapidly move away from fossil fuels at significant economic cost. Follow Juan David Rojas on X: @rojasrjuand Next, Devan Patel joins Chuck and Sam for an in-depth conversation about the rapidly changing world of artificial intelligence. Patel examines how Americans can better educate themselves on AI, the philosophical dangers of transhumanism, and the growing push to use technology to overcome fundamental limits of human existence. The conversation turns to one of the biggest questions facing policymakers: How much power should government have over AI? Patel argues for guardrails surrounding critical infrastructure, child safety, fraud, vulnerable populations, and emerging mental-health concerns while warning against government overreach, mass surveillance, privacy violations, and excessive corporate control. Patel also discusses the United States' technological rivalry with the Chinese Communist Party, arguing that America may need both formal and informal channels of communication with Beijing similar to U.S.-Soviet dialogue during the Cold War. He explains why American allies, global critical-mineral supplies, advanced semiconductor production, and international cooperation will all play major roles in the AI race. The conversation explores Marc Andreessen's accelerationism and Techno-Optimist Manifesto, antitrust concerns, corporate power, collective bargaining, lethal autonomous weapons, nuclear security, biotechnology risks, and whether the United States and China can find limited areas of cooperation before increasingly powerful AI systems become even harder to control. Patel also warns about authoritarian surveillance technology spreading around the world and argues that churches and other faith institutions may have an important role to play in protecting civil society and establishing moral guardrails against technological overreach. Learn more about Devan Patel: DevanPatel.com Then, B's Crime Corner examines the tragic case of Lindsay Clancy, the Massachusetts mother and former labor and delivery nurse accused of killing her three young children in 2023. The segment looks at Clancy's reported mental-health struggles following childbirth, the medications she had been prescribed, and the role postpartum depression and postpartum psychosis have played in the legal and public debate surrounding the case. Finally, historian and educator Dr. Jody Edward Ginn joins the program to discuss the state of history education in America. Ginn argues that declining academic standards, ideological changes within higher education, and shifts in teacher-training programs have left too many classrooms without educators who possess deep subject-matter expertise. The conversation examines what that means for students learning American history — and what may be lost when ideology replaces rigorous historical scholarship.

Text the show! What happens when a morally well-intentioned system produces terrible results?Chad begins with the case of Keith Lott, a 47-year-old New Jersey man whose family says they spent two days fighting an organ procurement organization over whether his organs could be recovered after his death.But that story opens a much larger question.America desperately needs kidneys. Living donation has remained essentially flat for decades. Dialysis costs taxpayers enormous sums. And yet federal law prohibits compensating the one person without whom a transplant cannot happen: the donor.Why?Chad traces the answer back to the National Organ Transplant Act of 1984, explores the strange contradictions in what Americans can legally be compensated for donating, and asks whether our moral assumptions have actually produced the outcomes we intended.The episode examines Iran's controversial compensated kidney system, Israel's successful use of non-cash incentives, the danger of exploiting low-income donors, the economics of dialysis and transplantation, and current proposals for carefully regulated donor compensation.The larger idea is what Chad calls “incentive morality.”What systems actually get people to do the most good?Because civilizations aren't built by wishing human beings behaved differently. They're built by designing institutions that work with human nature while protecting freedom, dignity and consent.And sometimes the moral thing isn't demanding better people.It's building a better system.

You can also see it on YouTube.Devin: What is your superpower?Jim: I think it might be more of a willingness to sacrifice creatively. You know, like, I think meaning is a wage that is paid for self-chosen self-sacrifice for the other.Dignity-first leadership can make corporate decarbonization more effective by helping companies work together to serve people as well as the planet.Jim Boyle, CEO and founder of Sustainability Roundtable, Inc., joined me to explain how his firm has spent 18 years helping major companies set goals, drive progress and report results in sustainability. What began as a membership-based strategic advisory service during the financial panic of 2009 has grown into a platform trusted by large enterprises working to decarbonize at scale.Jim described Sustainability Roundtable's Net Zero Consortium for Buyers as a way to “help democratize utility-scale clean energy.” By bringing high-credit corporations together, the consortium gives them the scale to procure major clean energy projects they could not easily accomplish alone.The results are impressive. Jim shared the example of an aggregated procurement involving seven off-takers, including Akamai Technologies, Teradyne and the City of Cambridge. The project was built in southern Illinois, coal country, where clean power has especially high climate and health value.“When you replace coal with large-scale solar and batteries, you are really making a difference in the carbon cycle,” Jim said. “And you are making a difference in the particulate matter in that given area as well.”That health impact is measurable. Jim said the first gigawatt Sustainability Roundtable helped clients procure saved more than 3,700 disability-adjusted life years in its first year of operation alone. It also avoided $985 million in healthcare costs.“This move from molecules to electrons, from extracted fossil fuel to clean electrons, it has many wonderful impacts even beyond reducing carbon in our atmosphere,” Jim said.Jim's new book, Dignity First Leadership: Developing and Driving a World Class Sustainability Strategy, co-authored with Ann Whitney, connects that practical climate work to a deeper leadership framework. He argues that business should not treat efficiency as its highest goal. Instead, leaders should focus on magnifying the dignity of stakeholders, including employees, customers, suppliers, communities and investors.“In every instance, it's the CEO's job in particular to create value in the near, mid, and long term with each and all your stakeholders,” Jim said.I love that framing. Climate solutions work best when they honor the people they affect. Jim's work reminds us that sustainability is not just about cleaner electrons. It is about healthier lives, better communities and leadership that puts human dignity first.tl;dr:Today's episode explores how dignity-first leadership strengthens corporate sustainability and climate action.Jim explains how Sustainability Roundtable helps companies procure utility-scale clean energy together.Today's episode connects renewable energy projects to measurable health benefits and avoided costs.Jim shares why CEOs should create value for all stakeholders, not efficiency alone.Today's episode highlights Creative Sacrifice as Jim's superpower for service-centered leadership.How to Develop Creative Sacrifice As a SuperpowerJim described his superpower as “a willingness to sacrifice creatively.” He explained, “I think meaning is a wage that is paid for self-chosen self-sacrifice for the other.” Grounded in his faith, his admiration for leadership as service and his work with executives, Jim sees sacrifice not as depletion but as empowerment. He said he can “bring a lot of energy to leadership as service,” especially in a business built around helping clients lead.Jim illustrated Creative Sacrifice with a recent challenge at Sustainability Roundtable. His team was developing a new compliance collaborative to help global companies master mandatory sustainability reporting. The deadlines were real, the complexity was high and the product was not ready. Instead of pretending otherwise, Jim told member executives the truth: the team needed help. That vulnerability felt embarrassing and risky, especially with prospective clients present. The result was powerful. More than half a dozen senior executives volunteered meaningful time, with some teams contributing more than 100 hours each, to co-design a better service.Choose service before ego when others need your leadership.Look for self-chosen sacrifices that create meaning for you and value for others.Be honest when you do not have the answer instead of pretending you do.Invite stakeholders to help design solutions that will serve them.Treat dignity as a practical leadership goal in every decision.Build a team culture that asks people to sacrifice together for clients and impact.Recognize that a high-performing team is not the same as a family, then lead accordingly.By following Jim's example and advice, you can make Creative Sacrifice a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

Fearmongering media say climate change is “our greatest threat in thousands of years.” Climate change is real, but is it the apocalypse? Climate researcher Roger Pielke Jr. doesn't think so. But just expressing skepticism got him attacked by our government.Al Gore blamed extreme weather on climate change. “Every storm is different now because it takes place in a warmer and wetter world.” But that isn't true.Roger Pielke Jr explains: "we haven't observed changes in the frequency or intensity (of storms) that are beyond natural variability." He adds, “The increasing impacts of extreme weather…are due to what we build, where we build, how much wealth we have in harm's way.” In other words, weather costs more because people build more expensive properties in risky places. Pielkie's research has won awards and is cited by the U.N. climate committee. Still, activists hate it. A congressman investigated him, and the University of Colorado shut down his research center. Pielke didn't back down. Now, the American Enterprise Institute supports his work. “You can't be cancelled," says Pielke, "You can let them cancel you, but you can't be cancelled.” His full story in the podcast above.

Greg revisits a 1992 television campaign ad for Bill Clinton and Al Gore that sounds remarkably different from today's political messaging. The ad highlights calls to end "welfare as we know it," support the death penalty, balance budgets, cut government spending, and reject "tax-and-spend" politics.Using the ad as a historical snapshot, Greg reflects on how political rhetoric and public priorities have changed over the past three decades. Whether you remember the 1992 election or are hearing this ad for the first time, this conversation offers a fascinating look at the evolution of American politics and the shifting landscape of campaign messaging.

Meet my friends, Clay Travis and Buck Sexton! If you love Verdict, the Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show might also be in your audio wheelhouse. Politics, news analysis, and some pop culture and comedy thrown in too. Here’s a sample episode recapping four takeaways. Give the guys a listen and then follow and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts. Clay Travis and Buck Sexton talk about how the Democratic Party is experiencing a demographic and ideological divide. They argued that the party’s most vocal socialist activists are disproportionately white, college-educated, and affluent, while many Black and Hispanic voters hold more practical and transactional political priorities centered on issues such as healthcare, affordability, public safety, and economic opportunity. The discussion explored whether the far left is merely influencing the party or has become an increasingly mainstream force within Democratic politics. The hosts tied this debate to broader national issues including immigration policy, open borders, Israel, transgender politics, and the rise of democratic socialism. They also briefly noted Arizona’s primary election and discussed its significance in the national political landscape, particularly regarding the future of Governor Katie Hobbs. Clay and Buck devoted considerable attention to the potential safety benefits of autonomous driving technology. They discussed the approximately 40,000 annual traffic fatalities in the United States and suggested that self-driving systems could dramatically reduce accidents caused by human error, particularly among young drivers. The hosts compared the coming transportation revolution to the transition from horses to automobiles in the early twentieth century, arguing that autonomous vehicles could become one of the most transformative technological developments of modern times. They also discussed how self-driving technology could eventually reduce teenage driving fatalities, improve traffic flow, lower insurance costs, and improve overall road safety. The conversation then expanded into a broader discussion about why Democrats lost recent elections and who may lead the party in the future. Clay argued that today’s Democratic Party has moved substantially leftward compared to the Democratic Party of Bill Clinton, Al Gore, or even Barack Obama. The hosts suggested that Democratic leaders continue to misdiagnose voter dissatisfaction by blaming messaging failures instead of addressing policy positions that many voters reject. They debated possible future Democratic presidential contenders, including Kamala Harris, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear, while emphasizing that they see the Democratic leadership vacuum as one of the most intriguing political stories heading toward the next presidential election cycle. An extensive interview with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, who discussed a number of major economic and policy initiatives. Bessent highlighted the administration’s “Trump Accounts” program, which provides investment opportunities for young Americans and newborn children. He explained how government-seeded investment accounts, combined with family contributions and private-sector philanthropy, could potentially grow into significant financial assets over time. The discussion focused on wealth building, financial literacy, investment growth, family savings strategies, and long-term economic opportunity for American children. Bessent also provided an update on the U.S. economy, discussing inflation, energy prices, tax relief measures, and working-family economic policies. He argued that inflation pressures caused during the Biden administration continue to affect household budgets but maintained that underlying economic conditions remain strong. He highlighted tax policies including no taxes on tips, no taxes on overtime pay, Social Security tax relief, and deductions tied to American-made vehicles. The secretary emphasized that many of these benefits are targeted toward middle-class and working-class Americans. Foreign policy and national security were another major theme of the interview. Bessent discussed efforts to track, freeze, and recover assets connected to Iran’s ruling regime and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps. He described ongoing investigations into Iranian financial networks, frozen cryptocurrency wallets, luxury properties, and what he characterized as widespread corruption among Iranian leadership. The secretary argued that economic sanctions and financial pressure complement military actions against Iran and are designed to weaken the regime while preserving assets for the Iranian people. The conversation also touched on government efficiency, fraud prevention, and taxpayer protection. Bessent explained how enhanced coordination between federal payment systems and anti-fraud databases has helped the Treasury Department identify and block payments being sent to individuals who were deceased. He described efforts to modernize federal systems and reduce waste, fraud, and abuse in government spending programs, claiming that hundreds of millions of dollars in improper payments could ultimately be prevented. South Carolina politics briefly entered the discussion when Clay asked Bessent about the late Senator Lindsey Graham and speculation surrounding Graham’s sister as a potential candidate. Bessent praised Graham’s service, commented on the competitive Republican primary developing in South Carolina, and reiterated that he intends to remain focused on his current role as Treasury Secretary rather than pursuing elected office. The interview concluded with a lighthearted exchange about President Donald Trump’s late-night phone calls and work habits.

What does it take to change systems rather than simply address symptoms? In this episode of the Do One Better Podcast, Alberto Lidji speaks with Don Gips, CEO Emeritus of the Skoll Foundation, about the evolution of social entrepreneurship and the enduring role it plays in tackling the world's most complex challenges. Drawing on a career spanning the private sector, government, diplomacy, and philanthropy, Don reflects on the Skoll Foundation's pioneering efforts to help establish social entrepreneurship as a global field. He discusses Jeff Skoll's founding vision, the creation of the Skoll Centre for Social Entrepreneurship at the University of Oxford, and the growth of the Skoll World Forum into one of the world's foremost gatherings of social innovators. The conversation explores what distinguishes social entrepreneurship from traditional charitable approaches, emphasizing the pursuit of systems change through innovative models that reshape incentives, institutions, and outcomes. Don explains why successful social entrepreneurs increasingly build enduring organizations rather than relying on individual leadership, and why adaptability is essential when navigating resistance to systemic reform. A central theme is the growing importance of "systems orchestrators": trusted leaders who convene diverse stakeholders, align incentives, and enable collective action across sectors. Don argues that these often overlooked actors play a critical role in advancing large-scale social change, even when their contributions resist conventional methods of attribution and measurement. The discussion also examines philanthropy's relationship with risk, the challenges of funding systems change, and the need to move beyond linear models of impact toward collaborative approaches that recognize shared contribution. Don shares practical insights into how foundations can better support both social entrepreneurs and the broader ecosystems that enable transformational change. Reflecting on his own career, Don recounts lessons from leadership roles including U.S. Ambassador to South Africa, domestic policy advisor to Vice President Al Gore, and CEO of the Skoll Foundation.  The episode concludes with a simple but powerful principle that has shaped both the Skoll Foundation and Don's own career: bet on good people doing good things, then use your resources, relationships, and influence to help them succeed. This conversation will appeal to anyone interested in philanthropy, social entrepreneurship, systems change, impact investing, leadership, and the future of social innovation.

“America has a rigged economy held in place by a corrupt system of campaign finance.” — the message Tad Devine and Ben Tulchin developed for Bernie Sanders, which tested highest in Iowa and New Hampshire in 2015 How the Democrats Screwed Bernie. It could have been coined by Donald Trump. That was Tad Devine's first objection when his editor floated it. But as Devine, Bernie Sanders' chief strategist on his 2016 Presidential campaign, worked on the book about the 2016 campaign, he realised it most accurately expressed how he felt about what actually happened. And so the new tell-all — the inside account of the historic Sanders campaign — is, indeed, entitled How the Democrats Screwed Bernie. Devine was never an outsider. He worked on Al Gore's 2000 and John Kerry's 2004 presidential campaigns. He first met Bernie Sanders in 1996, when Peter DeFazio — the Oregon congressman for whom Devine and his partner Mike Donilon had just run a near-miraculous campaign — suggested they meet. Sanders had almost lost his House seat in 1994. Devine's campaign won it back by 26 points. Ten years later, Devine ran Sanders' successful Senate campaign against a free-spending billionaire. They won by 30 points. Devine schooled Bernie in the insider-politics of the Democratic party. But he didn't transform him into an insider. Bernie was and is always Bernie. The consummate outsider. So how, exactly, did the Dems screw Bernie? According to Devine, it was a coordinated campaign by the Clinton Machine, the DNC, and a network of Super PACs to stop a wildly popular outsider through dark money, dirty tricks, and deliberately structured primary rules. The unHillary candidate who, Devine argues, may well have been the people's choice — and could have beaten Donald Trump in November 2016. But Bernie's real legacy, Devine insists, is not what was done to him. It's his campaign message. “America has a rigged economy held in place by a corrupt system of campaign finance.” That outsider language — which Devine developed with pollster Ben Tulchin — captures how America is screwing itself. The consummate insider Trump stole Bernie's language. And if the Democrats want to screw the MAGA crowd in 2028, they need to seize back this outsider message. Five Takeaways •       The Title That Sounded Like Trump: Devine's first reaction when his Simon & Schuster editor proposed the title: I don't want to be anything like Trump. But as he worked through the process of writing the book, he came to see that the title most accurately expressed how he felt about what happened in 2016. The Democratic establishment — the Clinton Machine, the DNC, the network of Super PACs and media allies — used dark money, dirty tricks, opposition research, and deliberately structured primary rules to stop a wildly popular outsider candidate. A candidate who, the book argues, may well have been the people's choice and may well have defeated Donald Trump. •       How Devine Met Bernie: 1996, Peter DeFazio, and 26 Points: Devine was already a Democratic establishment figure when Peter DeFazio — a progressive Oregon congressman — introduced him to Sanders in early 1996. Sanders had almost lost his House seat in 1994; Devine's firm came in a month before the 1996 election and reversed the trajectory. Sanders won by 26 points. Ten years later, Devine ran Sanders' Senate campaign against a billionaire who spent the equivalent of $350 million in California, and they won by 30 points. A bond of trust formed between the establishment consultant and the independent socialist, though it was a relationship in which the label-defying aspect went both ways: Bernie, you're a United States senator, Devine told him. That is the establishment. •       The Rigged Economy Message: What Bernie Actually Contributed: The most important moment in the 2016 campaign was not a debate or a rally. It was a polling session in 2015 in which Devine and pollster Ben Tulchin combined two separate arguments — a rigged economy and a corrupt system of campaign finance — into a single sentence: “America has a rigged economy held in place by a corrupt system of campaign finance.” It tested as the highest message in Iowa and New Hampshire. That, Devine argues, is Bernie's real legacy: the identification of the structural problem. Until that problem is fixed — until the campaign finance system that rigs the economy is reformed — the economy will continue to crush the middle class and make it impossible for people to afford groceries, gas, and healthcare. •       The Real Populist vs the Phony One: Trump saw the same diagnosis Bernie had identified and grabbed it — infusing it with his xenophobia, racism, pathological lying, and contempt for democratic norms. The populist message was the same; the bundle around it was entirely different. Bernie represents a belief that government has a role in serving people. Trump represents a belief that government should serve rich people and punish everyone else, wrapped in the language of the working class. That, Devine argues, is the distinction that matters for 2028. The fight is not between left and right. It is between the real and the phony. •       AOC, Ro Khanna, and the 2028 Democratic Race: Bernie won't run in 2028. But Devine is certain that one or more Bernie-style candidates will. AOC and Ro Khanna are the most obvious — both have toured with Bernie, both share his core principles, both are committed to Medicare for All. But Devine adds: at this point in the calendar going into 2006, Barack Obama was a state senator from Illinois. The candidate who actually wins the 2028 nomination may not yet be on the radar. What is on the radar: a Democratic base that is desperate for new leadership and a new direction. And a president, Trump, who Devine believes is capable of doing anything to hold power, including worse than January 6. The only way to stop him is to beat him in elections. About the Guest Tad Devine is a Democratic political strategist with over thirty years of campaign experience. He served as chief strategist for Bernie Sanders' 2016 presidential campaign and as a senior adviser in Al Gore's 2000 and John Kerry's 2004 presidential campaigns. He has held academic positions at Boston University, the Harvard Kennedy School, and George Washington University. He is the author of How the Democrats Screwed Bernie (Simon & Schuster, July 7, 2026). References: •       How the Democrats Screwed Bernie by Tad Devine (Simon & Schuster, July 7, 2026). Publishers Weekly: “An enraging account… a keen cautionary tale.” •       Mike Donilon — Devine's former partner; later became Joe Biden's top strategist in the White House.

In 2016, U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., was an insurgent candidate taking on Hillary Clinton, the heavily favored pick of the Democratic establishment for the presidential primary. As Sanders barnstormed the country and brought out millions of people to hear his message, the Clinton machine's operatives and super-PACs swung into action to stop him by any means necessary.Tad Devine was deep in the trenches of this fight. He is a veteran Democratic political consultant and was chief strategist for Sanders' 2016 presidential campaign. Prior to that he had been a senior adviser in the presidential campaigns of Al Gore in 2000 and John Kerry in 2004.Devine has written an explosive new book about the 2016 Democratic primary campaign, “How the Democrats Screwed Bernie.” His inside account comes as a new generation of populist Democrats, including New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner, is once again challenging the Democratic establishment and receiving fierce pushback from the old guard.Devine writes that “the entrenched leadership of the Democratic Party seems determined to forget the mistakes it made during the primary season of 2016.” He blames the Democratic elite for “two catastrophic defeats in the recent past and who knows how many more to come in the future.”Devine insists, “The Democratic Party must stop impeding voters from determining the outcome of primaries.”Could Bernie have beaten Donald Trump in 2016?“Donald Trump's own pollster showed up at Harvard for the post-election review, and when asked what would have happened if Sanders was the nominee, he said he would have won,” Devine told me. “He understood that those white working-class voters who fled Hillary Clinton would have gone back to Bernie Sanders.”Devine said the reason the Democratic Party is “completely out of touch with the American people” is because it participates in “a rigged system” in which the richest donors can buy elections. He said that in other countries, “if they threw money into campaigns anonymously, they would go to jail.”“We have to break from that stranglehold of money in politics and establish ourselves as a party that is willing to seek funding through people at the grassroots level.”There are two ways to fix the corrupt campaign financing system, Devine said. “One is elections, and the second is the Constitution and overriding the Supreme Court. That is the only way home right now for America.”Devine said that “overwhelming majorities of Democrats, Republicans, independents support changing the system of campaign finance.” What they need is “a visionary leader or leaders to come out and to move the nation in that direction.” Is there any particular leader who he thinks has promise? Devine suggested Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro or California Gov. Gavin Newsom might emerge. But he noted that Barack Obama was an Illinois state senator until 2004 when he was elected a U.S. senator, and then won the presidency four years later. “People can come up very quickly in this day of instant communication.”When that leader emerges, he predicted, “I think politics will change in America and will give it back its soul.”

Matt Bennett — co-founder and executive vice president of the center-left think tank Third Way — joins the Chuck Toddcast to offer a pragmatist's anxious assessment of what the Mamdani-led DSA surge in New York actually means for the future of the Democratic Party. Bennett's central worry is whether the New York primaries represent a genuine "Tea Party moment" for the left — which he frankly admits would be scary for Democrats — though he takes some comfort in the fact that the three districts Mamdani candidates won are extraordinarily deep blue, and argues the national Democratic electorate simply isn't as extreme as the Republican base, making the party much harder to hijack than the GOP was. Bennett draws a crucial distinction in how these races were actually won: Mamdani himself won on affordability, but many of his endorsees won on Israel, where anti-Israel sentiment has become the number-one voting issue for New York progressives. He's careful but direct on the antisemitism question — not all of the far-left are antisemites, he says, but they are increasingly making common cause with them, pointing to the antisemitic abuse Dan Goldman faced during his campaign — and argues that while antisemitism won't ultimately eat the Democratic Party, it absolutely needs to be contained. Bennett is sharply critical of the self-inflicted wounds of progressive governance (decriminalizing shoplifting was a disaster, he says), and argues the broader problem is that left-coded "performative nonsense" fundamentally changed how voters see the party — that the country rejected both Biden's progressive overreach and the left's woke cultural politics, and that Biden's real mistake was bragging he was the most progressive president since FDR. The conversation broadens into a rich strategic discussion about 2028 and the soul of the party. Bennett argues that parties are ultimately defined by their nominee, so Democrats will be fine if they simply get that choice right, and frames the Michigan Senate primary — where he's skeptical Abdul El-Sayed can beat Mike Rogers — as a fascinating case study in the tension between charisma and electability. He makes the case that charisma genuinely matters (Mamdani and El-Sayed have it), that "boring doesn't work" in modern politics, and that the biggest open question for 2028 is whether a center-left candidate can successfully run as a genuine change agent — because the status quo is extremely broken, and no one can win by running to preserve it. Bennett offers some encouraging signs for his wing of the party: Iowa is drifting back toward Democrats, James Talarico is a genuinely strong candidate in Texas, and candidate quality still matters enormously. He and Chuck dig into why Palestine became the defining progressive cause rather than the plight of the Uighurs, how social media and the collapse of civics education have sealed people into ideological bubbles, and why the word "socialism" means Norway to some voters and Cuba to others. Bennett argues that Netanyahu has personally turned off a generation of young Americans to Israel — and that if Israelis remove him, it could serve as a genuine relief valve for Democrats — and closes with a series of pointed predictions: Schumer should make clear soon that he won't run for leader again, Warren and Murphy are too far-left-coded to unify the party, both wings could actually rally around Brian Schatz as leader, and the Mamdani story, for all the panic it's generated, is ultimately a minor earthquake rather than a major fracture.

Chuck Todd opens with a programming note—the ToddCast moves to a Monday/Thursday schedule for July and August—before digging into the fallout from Zohran Mamdani-endorsed candidates sweeping New York's primaries. Chuck unpacks who powered the wins (younger, white progressives), argues that Mamdani's affordability focus rather than his endorsements was the real galvanizing force, and examines how Israel has become a litmus test on a left that, like MAGA, increasingly has little patience for the pluralism Chuck calls the heart of the American experiment—warning that when every issue becomes a litmus test, disagreement turns into something punishable. He weighs whether this is a singular New York moment or a broader realignment in which two uncompromising factions come to dominate both parties, with Abdul El-Sayed's Michigan Senate bid shaping up as the next big test. From there, Chuck turns to Trump blowing a chance to show voters he cares about affordability by refusing to sign a housing bill that already has veto-proof majorities—and how the president keeps making it nearly impossible for the GOP to govern heading into a brutal midterm stretch he's brought on himself. Finally, an alarming look at Pete Hegseth's overt politicization of the military: the firing of respected leaders like Chris Donahue, purges that appear to target officers for their race, gender, what they know, or their willingness to push back on illegal orders, the removal of the JAGs and the Pentagon press corps, and why Chuck argues that whoever Hegseth wants out may be exactly who the country needs leading it next. Then, Matt Bennett — co-founder and executive vice president of the center-left think tank Third Way — joins the Chuck Toddcast to offer a pragmatist's anxious assessment of what the Mamdani-led DSA surge in New York actually means for the future of the Democratic Party.

David Boies is one of the most powerful and controversial attorneys in modern American legal history, best known for representing Al Gore in Bush v. Gore and for building a reputation as a ruthless, high-stakes litigator for corporate and elite clients. Over decades, Boies cultivated an image as a champion of civil rights and complex litigation while simultaneously representing multinational corporations, Hollywood studios, and billionaires accused of serious misconduct. That dual role—public crusader on one hand, elite fixer on the other—has defined his career and ultimately made his involvement in the Epstein saga so damaging to his legacy. By the time Jeffrey Epstein's crimes came under renewed scrutiny, Boies was no longer just a famous lawyer; he was a legal power broker whose choices carried enormous ethical weight.Boies entered the Epstein story as part of the legal team representing Epstein's victims, but his role quickly became controversial when it was revealed that his firm was also working in ways that appeared to protect Epstein's interests and manage reputational fallout for powerful figures connected to the case. Most notably, Boies's firm hired the private intelligence company Black Cube—staffed by former Israeli intelligence operatives—to dig up damaging information on Epstein accusers, a move that shocked observers and survivors alike. This tactic blurred the line between victim advocacy and intimidation, reinforcing long-standing concerns that the legal system was being weaponized to suppress accountability rather than pursue it. In the Epstein saga, David Boies came to symbolize a deeper problem: how elite legal muscle can be used to shape outcomes, silence vulnerable people, and protect powerful networks, even while claiming to stand on the side of justice.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

Tucker Carlson just dropped a massive bombshell — he's DONE supporting the Republican Party. You HAVE to see this. The former Fox News kingpin and longtime Trump ally says he will no longer vote Republican, calling the party disloyal to America and “immoral” on key issues. After 35 years as a consistent defender of the GOP, Tucker is walking away — and he believes millions of other Americans are right behind him. This isn't some small disagreement. It's a full-blown break that exposes deep fractures inside the conservative movement, especially over foreign policy and America First priorities. Is Tucker speaking the hard trut ...or is he going too far? But that's not all — Pat also covers: Bill Maher continues to WARN Democrats to return to normalcy. Kamala Harris serves up another hilarious word salad. Al Gore's climate change movie turns 20 years old ... and he was completely wrong. Candace Owens makes MAJOR announcements on her show. "The View" is still obsessed and amazed by JD Vance's appearance. Comment below RIGHT NOW: Do you agree with Tucker Carlson ditching the GOP? YES or NO?

We have just passed the 20 year anniversary of Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth. When he was asked recently by ABC News Chief Meteorologist and Chief Climate Correspondent Ginger Zee whether the film and its predictions on global warming hold up, Gore responded, "Unfortunately, yes." He went on to say, "The scientists were dead right on all the important elements of it and it really is insane that we are continuing to use the sky as an open sewer and we're trapping so much heat every day it's equal to the amount that would be released by 800,000 Hiroshima-class atomic bombs exploding every day on the earth." Earlier this year the Yale School of the Environment published an article titled, Overshoot: The World is Hitting Point of No Return on Climate. They stated: "With warming set to pass the critical 1.5-degree limit, scientists are warning that the world is on course to trigger tipping points that would lead to cascading consequences from the melting of ice sheets to the death of the Amazon rainforest-that could not be reversed." Returning to Crosstalk to discuss the latest response by the U.N. General Assembly to such news was Alex Newman.

In this episode of the Joe Concha Show, Joe breaks down the new Trump-brokered Iran deal and explains why critics on the right need to look at the neutered Iranian military and falling gas prices. He also takes aim at Jim Acosta's dramatic Kennedy Center meltdown, local New York politicians pushing "abolish ICE" and "defund the police" agendas, and Al Gore's questionable victory lap for his 2006 climate predictions. Plus, Joe covers Hillary Clinton's convenient hindsight on Joe Biden's 2024 campaign, the Knicks uniting the five boroughs, and how VP JD Vance managed to charm Joy Behar on The View.

We're back sticking our toes into the conspiracy world this week! And boy do we got a good one to tell you about this week! So....Stevie Wonder isn't really blind! This has been a viral conspiracy since before the internet was invented by Al Gore. And this isn't just some off the cuff rumor that someone made up either. Hundreds, if not thousands, of celebrities have shared their stories of Stevie performing feats that only able sighted people could pull off. We're talking, driving, walking through street traffic, face timing Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg, watching live basketball games, taking pictures of Michael Jackson, and landing some of the sweetest looking Cherie Amors in the world.  How does he do it?

Al Gore endorses Howard Dean for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination. 1st POLL: In what city in the world do you find the best looking people?

We have a packed podcast this week. Full of lots of questions others won't ask. Want to know the truth about the current upset at CBS? Find out more through the link below!If you didn't hear the news, “veteran” 60 Minutes correspondent Scott Pelley has been fired for thinking he was above the rules and accusing his bosses at a public meeting of destroying the company. But as we reveal It was Scott and his merry band of journalistic liars who started the rot. They lied and lied even when their hero assaulted Phelim (go to the link below for that video). And talking of the truth - you won't believe what Pope Leo used to write his anti-AI encyclical. From NAZI to Not so Married - Graham Platner. The Democrats thought they had found the perfect candidate to run against Republican Susan Collins in Maine - they were ok with the Nazi tattoo - and the rape jokes but - have they reached the breaking point? We investigate the Nazi sexter who could be in the Senate. And in our Not All Things Considered segment- we expose NPR's failing show where they want to cover up the news, not cover the news. And so we examine their coverup interview of former Vice President Al Gore. They were celebrating, yes celebrating the 20th anniversary of his documentary An Inconvenient Truth but forgot to ask some very crucial questions. We ask the questions they didn't and examine the damage Gore did to children who were terrified the world was ending. Spoiler alert... it didn't.Anti-semitic Ireland is ok with playing Qatar and even Afghanistan in sport, two world leaders in oppression. But there is one country that is beyond the pale - there is no prize for guessing which one it is. Watch this week where one Irish sports pundit lies about the wars Israel is fighting and expresses disgust at the notion of his president shaking hands with an Israeli. What does that sound like to you?The sacrifices we make for you listeners on the podcast. We analyse the latest offerings from that evil bore Dr Jill “Macbeth” Biden. Her book has just come out - and of course she “never ever ever” saw any sign of Joe's decline. Sure we believe her… well except when she thought he was having a stroke. This week we investigate her bizarre response to her husband's health crisis. We finish this week with a crazy California special. Did you know that San Francisco was giving free booze to homeless drunks? Because they are victims of course. And wait until you see how much it costs to give booze to just 55 drunks - I mean victims.

So Eric Trump is suing Jen Psaki. And I don't even care what the lawsuit is about. Seriously. At this point, if a Trump sues a Democrat, I assume somewhere there's a fax machine crying and three MSNBC producers stress-eating hummus.But I love the symbolism of it. Because for years these people weaponized government against Trump, weaponized the courts, weaponized intelligence agencies, weaponized leaks, weaponized social media. Democrats turned America into the world's first bureaucratic escape room. Every day under Trump was another clue: “To continue your presidency, solve this puzzle hidden inside a subpoena wrapped in a Russia hoax.”Now? Eric Trump says, “Cool. Your turn.”And suddenly the Left discovers legal fees are expensive when USAID isn't covering them.That's the beauty of MAGA. It's not just political anymore. It's cultural gravity. Trump didn't simply survive. He turned political persecution into a franchise model. Democrats thought they were building his prison cell. Instead they built a gymnasium where conservatives learned how to fight.And spare me this media fairy tale that MAGA is “falling apart.” They've been predicting the death of MAGA longer than Al Gore's been predicting the death of the planet. According to cable news, MAGA has died more times than Kenny on South Park.They tell us conservatives are furious with Trump over war policy, personality, tariffs, tone, Truth Social posts, golf scores, the angle of his tie, and probably the migration pattern of geese. Yet somehow, every Republican who publicly betrayed Trump politically evaporated like cheap cologne in Phoenix.Ten out of ten House Republicans who voted to impeach Trump? Gone.Five Republican Senators tied to impeachment efforts? Gone, including Bill Cassidy.The Bush dynasty? Politically taxidermied.Cheneys? The political equivalent of Circuit City.Romneys? Finished.Pence? Mike Pence has less support in the Republican Party than gluten-free biscuits at a Texas rodeo.And this matters historically because the Republican establishment used to operate like a country club with a velvet rope. You got approved by donors, consultants, think tanks, and guys named Whitaker who own loafers without socks. Trump bulldozed that system. MAGA voters looked at decades of “managed decline” from polished Republicans and said, “Maybe the billionaire from Queens screaming at CNN is onto something.”And here's the part the Left still cannot process: MAGA isn't held together by government dependency. That's why it survives attacks.Leftism? Different story entirely.Leftism would collapse inside a month if it had to survive without taxpayer subsidies and foreign influence money. One month. Thirty days. The political equivalent of a juice cleanse.Because modern Leftism produces almost nothing organically anymore. Every institution props it up artificially: academia, entertainment, NGOs, government grants, corporate DEI departments, media partnerships, foreign donors. It's the ideological version of a patient connected to fourteen machines going beep-beep-beep while MSNBC doctors stand around saying, “Vitals look strong!”No they don't.Imagine if Leftists had to balance a budget. Imagine if they had to run cities without deficits, corruption, or dependency. Imagine if they couldn't endlessly siphon taxpayer money into “equity initiatives” that somehow always end with consultants buying vacation homes.Meanwhile, conservatives already do what Leftists only hashtag about. They donate more privately. Volunteer more. Build businesses. Create jobs. Show up after disasters with chainsaws and bottled water instead of interpretive dance and pronoun worksheets.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Climate Change Panic Was the Original Hoax, Tara Says SHORT TITLE The Climate Hoax Collapse EPISODE DESCRIPTION Tara and Lee react to what they describe as the unraveling of decades of climate change narratives after recent discussion surrounding IPCC extreme warming projections. The conversation explores energy policy, China's rise, America's industrial decline, and the geopolitical consequences of climate-driven regulations. They also debate nuclear power, AI competition, and whether the United States can still catch up to China in the global energy race. HOOK Tara says climate change fear was “the original hoax” — and now the same institutions that pushed it for decades are quietly backing away after America already paid the price. KEY TALKING POINTS Discussion surrounding IPCC “extreme warming pathway” projections Debate over climate policy and media coverage Al Gore predictions revisited Concerns over energy grid reductions and rising electricity prices Obama-era coal reductions discussed China's role in global energy competition Claims that climate regulations benefited Chinese manufacturing growth Ted Cruz hearings and China-linked energy lawsuits referenced Debate over nuclear power expansion in the US AI and energy infrastructure race between the US and China Concerns over America falling behind in industrial capacity Trump energy policy contrasted with Democrat climate policies Discussion about long-term geopolitical strategy and energy independence SEO KEYWORDS climate change debate, IPCC controversy, global warming predictions, China energy strategy, nuclear power America, AI energy race, Al Gore climate predictions, Obama coal policy, climate hoax debate, Trump energy policy, Tara Servatius, Lee Cunningham, conservative podcast, China vs America SOCIAL MEDIA POST

A fiery breakdown of climate politics, media narratives, and global policy claims—this episode revisits decades of warnings about global warming, challenges from political critics who say predictions failed to materialize, and accusations that climate messaging has been used to drive fear and expand government power. The conversation also touches on the IPCC, Al Gore's early climate projections, shifting terminology from “global warming” to “climate change,” and broader geopolitical implications involving China and global energy strategy. EPISODE SUMMARY Today's discussion centers on a sweeping critique of climate policy messaging over the past several decades. The host argues that climate predictions promoted by political figures and international organizations have repeatedly failed to match real-world outcomes, citing historical claims about rising sea levels, disappearing glaciers, and extreme global impacts that did not materialize as projected. The episode also explores how climate language evolved over time—from “global warming” to “climate change”—and questions whether this shift reflected scientific refinement or political repositioning. References are made to IPCC modeling, media amplification, and high-profile figures like Al Gore, alongside claims that worst-case climate scenarios were emphasized without sufficient grounding. Beyond environmental policy, the discussion expands into geopolitics, suggesting that global climate agreements may have disproportionately constrained Western energy development while benefiting strategic competitors. The episode closes by arguing that energy policy decisions over the past 20 years have had lasting economic and national security consequences. SEGMENT BREAKDOWN 1. The “Climate Narrative Shift” Claims that “global warming” was rebranded as “climate change” Argument that messaging evolved as predictions failed to materialize Assertion that fear-based framing was used to maintain political momentum 2.

Some fervently believe that if the populace adheres to the global climate plan, it will eventually lead to genocide, leaving plants, animals, and humans in its wake. Eliminating CO2 from the atmosphere has always been about destroying human life to achieve the population reduction goals openly espoused by the likes of Bill Gates, Prince Phillip, Ted Turner, and Al Gore. Here's another insightful episode as Clyde Lewis gives us the scoop about PULLING OUT OF THE CARBON CULL. The original broadcast was on June 1, 2017.

In this thought-provoking episode of John Solomon Reports, we tackle a range of critical issues that are shaping the landscape of American policy and society. John Solomon sets the stage with an upcoming conversation featuring Harmony Dhillon, the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights, who will provide insights into the implications of recent Supreme Court rulings regarding race in college admissions and government contracts. Solomon raises important questions about the legality of current race-based programs in light of these rulings, emphasizing the need for a race-blind approach in government decisions.Joining the discussion is Congressman Glenn Grothman from Wisconsin, who is leading efforts to address fraud in federal spending and advocating for the elimination of race-based federal contracting. His insights shed light on the ongoing debate surrounding equity and fairness in government programs.In the second segment, Solomon welcomes Victoria Coates, former Deputy National Security Advisor, to analyze the latest developments in Iran's military actions and the broader implications for U.S. foreign policy. Coats provides a nuanced perspective on Iran's capabilities and the strategic decisions being made by the current administration.Later, Marc Morano joins the show to discuss the shifting narratives in climate change discourse, including Al Gore's recent pivot from global warming to warnings of a potential ice age. Marano's insights challenge conventional thinking and highlight the complexities of environmental policy.To round out the episode, Solomon emphasizes the importance of health awareness, particularly in relation to blood pressure management. He shares his personal experience with 120 Life, a health partner focused on natural solutions for better health outcomes, and encourages listeners to prioritize their well-being.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Welcome to Last Call, a look at the biggest stories Jim and Greg covered over the past week on the 3 Martini Lunch.This week they break down Nazi tattoo guy Graham Platner effectively clinching the Democratic U.S. Senate nomination in Maine, the Justice Department's new charges against former FBI Director James Comey, and the left's bizarre insistence that the would-be White House Correspondents Dinner shooter was not political despite his manifesto. Plus, they examine the latest twist in Al Gore's climate change charade.First, Jim and Greg break down Gov. Janet Mills dropping out of the Maine U.S. Senate race, a move that all but hands the nomination to Platner. They revisit the disturbing controversies tied to Platner and highlight how aggressively Mills had previously criticized him.Next, they react to a federal grand jury returning two felony indictments against Comey tied to his “8647” Instagram post last year. Comey now faces charges of threatening to kill President Trump and then distributing that threat through social media. Jim and Greg have no love for Comey, but they explain why this prosecution is likely to fail.Then, they focus on the would-be shooter and his manifesto. And Jim and Greg are stunned as Barack Obama and others on the left claim the motive was unknown long after the manifesto had already been released.Finally, they get a good laugh as former Vice President Al Gore, after decades of warning about the supposedly catastrophic effects of global warming, is now sounding the alarm in the opposite direction.Please visit our great sponsors:Fast Growing TreesBetter plants, better growing, and an extra 20% off with code MARTINI at https://FastGrowingTrees.com/Martini for a limited time; terms and conditions may apply.Noble GoldSchedule a free gold strategy session with Noble Gold.

The King of England and the King of Trolls. King Charles III visited the White House yesterday and spoke to Congress. The Left all stood and clapped for the King of England. Then they got mad at a tweet. When it comes to involvement in foreign countries, America just can't win. If we help, we're imperialist, if we don't help, we're also bad somehow? Either way, Zambia has AIDS and somehow that's America's fault. Al Gore was wrong about climate change, but he's back with a new warning. How much is it going to cost us this time?

Join Jim and Greg for the Wednesday 3 Martini Lunch as they break down the Justice Department's new charges against former FBI Director James Comey, how the Trump blockade is crippling Iran's economy, and the eye-opening deleted tweets from a leading Democratic U.S. Senate candidate. Plus, they examine the latest twist in Al Gore's climate change charade.First, they react to a federal grand jury returning two felony indictments against Comey tied to his “8647” Instagram post last year. Comey now faces charges of threatening to kill President Trump and then distributing that threat through social media. Jim and Greg have no love for Comey, but they explain why this prosecution is likely to fail.Next, they examine the devastating impact the war and the U.S. blockade of the Strait of Hormuz are having on Iran's economy: soaring inflation, widespread job losses, and an oil industry in crisis. But will this create enough pressure for meaningful change inside Iran?Then, they shake their heads at some of the now-deleted social media posts from Michigan Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Mallory McMorrow, including her comments about the auto industry, the death of a conservative U.S. Supreme Court justice, and the future of the United States.Finally, they get a good laugh as former Vice President Al Gore, after decades of warning about the supposedly catastrophic effects of global warming, is now sounding the alarm in the opposite direction.Please visit our great sponsors:Pocket HoseFor a limited time, get two free gifts—a 360° rotating pocket pivot and a thumb drive nozzle—when you buy the Pocket Hose Ballistic; just text MARTINI to 64000, message and data rates may apply.Noble GoldSchedule a free gold strategy session with Noble Gold.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) just had a complete meltdown — calling White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt a “stone-cold liar” and a “disgrace” after she called out the Left's toxic rhetoric. In this explosive exchange, Jeffries lashed out at Leavitt for correctly linking Democrat demonization of President Trump to the assassination attempt-style shooting at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. Instead of condemning the violence, Jeffries doubled down, attacked MAGA, and defended his own “maximum warfare” comments against Republicans. Leavitt pointed out how years of Democrats and the media calling Trump a threat to democracy, a fascist, and worse have created the dangerous environment we're seeing today. Jeffries' response? Pure deflection and hypocrisy. We also cover: Ana Navarro claims WHCD shooting was staged? Fox News pushes Kash Patel on Trump security. Jimmy Kimmel receives a Twitter vomit from Melania Trump? Montage: The Left's HATE toward Donald Trump. King Charles III visits the White House & President Trump. This is exactly why Americans rejected Democrats in 2024. While President Trump and his team focus on securing the country and fighting real threats, House Democrats like Jeffries are still playing the same divisive games.What do YOU think? Is Jeffries' unhinged attack on Karoline Leavitt proof the Left is scared of accountability? Or is this just more Democrat deflection? Drop your thoughts in the comments

If you've been cutting calories and grinding cardio to lose weight and it still isn't working — this episode is for you. Sal, Adam, and Justin break down why the cut-first approach is not just ineffective, it's actively working against you. A new study out of Brazil shows that people with belly fat but adequate muscle had ZERO increased risk of death — while those with belly fat and low muscle had an 83% higher risk. The message is clear: muscle is the variable that matters most. Then four callers join live for coaching on everything from Lyme disease and exercise anxiety to running a half marathon while keeping muscle, imposter syndrome as a new trainer, and a listener who thought she needed to lose 30 pounds of muscle to compete in bikinis.
