Mike and I discuss why we're "nervous bulls" on markets—with the Fed cutting rates and Trump pumping money into the economy, valuations look attractive, but an exploding wealth inequality gap and growing political backlash could trigger a revolution that ends the bull market. We dive into housing affordability (half of America earns below what's needed to buy a home), tokenization's global impact, Abu Dhabi's rise as a financial hub, and what economic warning signs would make us turn bearish.
How many lies were told in Trump's state-of-the-nation address? How does Trump really feel about that Vanity Fair interview? And, why is Trump still so obsessed with Biden?

Sam Bankman-Fried BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Sam Bankman-Fried, the fallen crypto kingpin serving a 25-year sentence at Brooklyns notorious Metropolitan Detention Center, made headlines this week as high-profile chatter swirls around his harsh fate. On Thursday, Anthony Scaramucci, the fiery former White House comms chief who lost big in FTXs collapse, told CNBC that Samb 25 years feels a bit too much, even as he slammed the fraud that victimized him and thousands more. Scaramucci, who penned a pardon letter for Binance ex-boss Changpeng Zhao—recently freed by Trump—hinted Samb lack of Trump ties seals his doom, adding as a Christian, the sentence seems onerous given the chaos aftermath. No pardon call though; he insists Sam deserved jail time.Prison buzz heated up too, with Business Insider and AOL reporting accused UnitedHealthcare slayer Luigi Mangione, fresh from solitary, poised to join Sam and Sean Diddy Combs in the jails 15-man protective custody unit by Monday—high-profile troublemakers bunking amid maggot meals and barbaric conditions that have dogged the Sunset Park hellhole. Sam, 32, stays mum there post his March fraud conviction for looting over eight billion in customer cash.Do Kwons Thursday sentencing to 15 years for his 40 billion TerraLuna scam—10 years lighter than Sams—stirred comparisons galore. BeInCrypto and Finance Magnates noted Kwons guilty plea, victim apologies, and looming Korean charges softened his US blow, unlike Sams evasive trial lies, perjury findings, and zero remorse that Judge Lewis Kaplan scorched. Law360 meanwhile flagged FTX customers pushing a 10 million Silvergate settlement for final approval on December 9, a trickle of justice years after the implosion.Book chatter lingers too, as The American Prospect reviewed David Z. Morriss Stealing the Future this week, painting Sam as a chameleon con artist who played media like a harp from Hell, chasing power via effective altruism hype. Amid crypto CEOs dropping like flies—Kwons lighter hit now a benchmark—no fresh Sam sightings, pleas, or posts surfaced, just echoes of his enduring infamy.

Anthony Scaramucci (Founder and Managing Partner, SkyBridge Capital, former White House Communications Director, and author, “Solana Rising: Investing in the Fast Lane of Crypto”) joins Chris Cuomo to break down how Trump's influence reshaped American politics — from loyalty culture and broken institutions to the money pipelines that fuel the outrage economy. Scaramucci explains why Trumpism still distorts incentives in Washington, why corruption persists across both parties, and how political dysfunction became a profitable business model. Cuomo and Scaramucci also dig into the economics behind the moment — from crypto's growing role in global finance to how digital markets, speculation, and new technologies intersect with political instability. They explore what a post-Trump GOP might look like, whether voters still reward serious leadership, and why America's systems keep drifting further from what working people actually need.

Today on Mea Culpa, I welcome back my longtime friend, Anthony Scaramucci, for a blistering, unfiltered breakdown of the chaos coming from our old boss. We dig into Trump's deadly “drug boat” strikes, the horrific National Guard shooting, and the growing pattern of violence fueled by political lies. Scaramucci and I expose how Trump's impulsive decision-making, collapsing inner circle, and obsession with ego over governance are destabilizing everything from foreign to domestic policy. We also unpack Trump's bizarre branding spree, from slapping his name on the U.S. Institute of Peace to chasing billions through global deals, and why the military, Congress, and even Republicans are reaching a breaking point.

Anthony Scaramucci joins Joanna Coles and reveals why, really, Trump can't stand ‘South Park'—and how that anger connects with his deep insecurity. Scaramucci unpacks a visibly faltering Trump: exhausted, erratic, and sliding in the polls, struggling to control the swirl of unanswered claims online. He and Joanna trace the ripple effects through Washington, from anxious MAGA insiders to allies quietly rehearsing their post-Trump moves.

Bitterness is the poison you drink expecting someone else to die. It's the corrosive emotion born from crisis that fills your throat with bile and consumes your every waking thought with questions like "why me?".In this special compilation episode, I've pulled together five extraordinary conversations with people who have every right to be bitter about what they've faced, but who have found their own methods of beating it back: Anthony Scaramucci, fired from the White House in 11 days while missing his son's birth and facing divorce; Amanda Knox, who served four years in an Italian prison for a murder she didn't commit; Mo Gawdat, former Google X exec who lost his son Ali to medical negligence; Lisa Squire, whose daughter Libby was tragically abducted, raped and murdered; and David Holmes, Harry Potter's stunt double who was paralysed from the waist down in an accident that should never have happened. LESSONS YOU'LL LEARN:Close the gap between "should" and "is" - Bitterness lives in the space between what ought to have happened and what actually did. Accept the world as it is, not as you think it should be.Shift from victimhood to agency - Work out what is in your control and what isn't, then focus on the former.Pair emotional honesty with tiny steps forward - Feel everything, embrace it, sit in it - but understand that emotion alone changes nothing.Choose your narrative consciously - In any crisis, there are multiple stories you can tell. Choose those that dial up pride, purpose or perspective and dial down bitterness.Forgiveness is for you, not them - Holding onto blame and hate doesn't punish those who wronged you; it only prolongs your suffering.
Lawmakers could vote as soon as tomorrow on a bill to release the Epstein Files in full - and it now seems certain that it will pass. President Trump has given Republicans the green light to vote for full disclosure, announcing on Truth Social last night that “we have nothing to hide.”So, what changed? Firstly, Democrats have been selectively drip-feeding Epstein's emails to the media with their own spin. Secondly, it's becoming increasingly clear that the Epstein Files are a bipartisan outrage. And there's not been any serious accusations of wrongdoing about the President. If Trump has nothing to hide and has always known that, it's not unreasonable to ask why this ever became such a mess - as it won't be going away until we know everything.

Anthony Scaramucci joins the Beast's Joanna Coles for a no-holds-barred look inside Trump's turbulent second term. Trump's former first-term Communications Director and longtime Trump confidant-turned-critic calls Trump “the wicked witch of the West Wing” and predicts the moment he finally melts. Scaramucci revisits his infamous 11 days in the White House, missing his son's birth, and the cost of blind loyalty. He tears into the GOP's pretenders to Trump's throne from J.D. Vance's obsequiousness to Marco Rubio's shape-shifting. Coles keeps the chaos sharp, pulling out Scaramucci's rawest insights on power, ego, and redemption. And it all builds to one cutting question: if Trump's the wicked witch of the West Wing, who's bold enough to throw the water? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Anthony Scaramucci, former White House Communications Director turned outspoken Trump critic, comes to Intelligence Squared in September for a straight-talking conversation on the fallout from Trump's second presidency. From his brief but explosive tenure inside the Trump White House in 2017 to his career on Wall Street and success as co-host of ‘The Rest Is Politics US' podcast, Scaramucci has never been one to hold back — sometimes at great personal cost. In conversation with Emily Maitlis he explored the biggest questions facing America and the world today. Is Trump an existential threat to democracy or can the US Constitution withstand his authoritarian impulses? Does his ‘America First' approach make war more or less likely? Does Vladimir Putin hold leverage over Trump, or is his detachment from Europe's troubles with Russia a calculated move to prioritise the greater threat from China? And are his opponents once again underestimating him — could the 77 million Americans who re-elected him be right that he will, in the end, make America great again? Scaramucci, with his trademark wit and unfiltered honesty, offered a rare insider's perspective on the chaos and consequences of the Trump era. --- If you'd like to become a Member and get access to all our full ad free conversations, plus all of our Members-only content, just visit intelligencesquared.com/membership to find out more.
