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.

Andrew Cuomo discusses a disturbing rise in anti-Semitic incidents across New York City and the globe, arguing that public indifference has allowed this hostility to flourish. He asserts that political disagreement with Israeli policies should never serve as a justification for the harassment or mistreatment of Jewish citizens. Furthermore, the Cuomo criticizes prominent political leaders for allegedly pandering to extreme rhetoric and using inflammatory labels to appease a specific ideological base.

Andrew Cuomo recounts a harrowing incident where a counterprotest against a far-right extremist nearly turned into a tragedy due to an attempted terrorist bombing in front of Gracie Mansion. The narrative highlights the severe danger of the TATP explosive discovered by police, contrasting the hateful rhetoric of the protesters with the lethal intentions of those influenced by radical ideologies. A central theme of the commentary is the rejection of moral equivalency, as Cuomo argues that while bigotry is reprehensible, it does not justify the act of mass violence.

Chris Cuomo brings together key moments from this week's Cuomo Mornings on SiriusXM, featuring conversations with former National Security Adviser John Bolton and Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY), along with calls from listeners reacting to America's growing conflict with Iran.Bolton lays out why he believes regime change in Tehran is the only viable path to eliminating Iran's nuclear threat and explains where he thinks the Trump administration's political strategy has fallen short. Cuomo presses him on the risks of a power vacuum, the role of Kurdish groups inside Iran, and whether the U.S. has prepared for what comes after the regime.Lawler defends the administration's decision to strike Iran, arguing the regime posed an untenable threat and that the president acted within his authority. Cuomo challenges him on congressional oversight, the risk of another long war in the Middle East, and what lawmakers were actually told in classified briefings.Callers also weigh in on the war, from veterans concerned about another Iraq-style conflict to listeners debating whether regime change is the right goal and what the real strategy should be moving forward.

Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus (Ret.) (Senior Fellow, Foundation for Defense of Democracies, and Former IDF Spokesperson) joins Chris Cuomo to explain how Israel sees the war with Iran — and why Israeli leaders reject the idea that Israel is dragging the United States into the conflict. Conricus breaks down how the strikes unfolded, what intelligence triggered the timing of the attack, and why he believes the operation was clearly led by the United States with Israel bearing the greatest immediate risk. He also explains the structure of the Iranian regime — including the role of the Revolutionary Guard, the Quds Force, and the internal security apparatus that keeps the government in power. The conversation explores whether regime change in Iran is realistic, how the Iranian military and proxy networks are responding, and why Israel believes Iran may be weaker and more isolated than many analysts assume. Cuomo also presses Conricus on civilian casualties, messaging failures around the reported strike on a school, and whether failing to acknowledge mistakes risks damaging public trust during wartime.

Most people think turning around a 60-year-old public company is about cost cuts, headcount reductions, and financial engineering. But real transformation doesn't start on the income statement. It starts when you realize the house you just bought, the one on the great street, in the great neighborhood, with decades of history, isn't a light renovation, you have to tear it down to the studs. That's the reality of turning around a legacy business. When John Cuomo stepped into the CEO role at VSE Corporation, he inherited a 60-year-old company that was overly diversified, culturally hierarchical, and strategically unfocused. Most leaders would have protected what was there, instead, John simplified.  He divested non-core assets. He focused the company almost entirely around aerospace. He reshaped the executive team. He flattened the organization. He made cultural fit, not just performance a gating factor for leadership. And he rebuilt the business around an OEM-centric aftermarket strategy, choosing partnership over short-term arbitrage. The result: over five years, VSE's market cap grew from roughly $300 million to over $3 billion. In this special replay episode, I sat down with John to unpack what it really means to take a 60-year-old company down to the studs, and rebuild it for the next 60. You'll also learn: -Why tearing a company “down to the studs” can be the only way to unlock long-term value -How simplifying a diversified structure accelerated growth instead of limiting it -Why VSE avoids PMA and stays tightly aligned with OEM partners -How to evaluate acquisitions beyond financials, and why cultural fit is non-negotiable -What most executives misunderstand about integration versus portfolio management -How to scale without losing nimbleness and execution speed -The real risks in today's aftermarket M&A environment and why “everything shiny” isn't always valuable -Why presence, not policy, is the foundation of empowerment and execution   About the Guest John Cuomo is the President and CEO of VSE Corporation. Appointed Chief Executive Officer in 2019,  he brings 21 years of experience in distribution and the aftermarket services industry. John previously served as Vice President and General Manager of Boeing Distribution Services Inc. Before Boeing's 2018 acquisition of the Aerospace Solutions Group of KLX Inc., John served as its President and General Manager (since 2014). From 2000 to 2014, John served in multiple roles and functions at B/E Aerospace (parent company of KLX, Inc. until 2014), including Vice President & General Manager and Senior Vice President, Global Sales, Marketing & Business Development. Before joining B/E Aerospace, John served as an attorney at a large multinational law firm practicing commercial law, mergers and acquisitions, and litigation.

Chris Cuomo opens with a blunt declaration: America is at war. He questions how we got here, what authority was used, and whether anyone in Washington can clearly define the objective or the exit strategy. If this is the biggest decision of the administration, what happens next — and who owns it? Mike Huckabee (U.S. Ambassador to Israel) joins Chris for a pointed conversation about the U.S.-Israel alliance and the growing fracture inside American politics over Israel and Iran. Huckabee responds to Tucker Carlson's accusations that Israel is manipulating U.S. policy, addresses criticism over civilian casualties in Gaza, and argues that Iran poses a direct threat to the United States — not just Israel.

Chris Cuomo brings together key moments from this week's Cuomo Mornings on SiriusXM, featuring conversations with White House border czar Tom Homan, Rep. Madeleine Dean (D-PA), and callers weighing in on immigration enforcement and the State of the Union. Homan responds to criticism over ICE training standards, detention facilities, recent use-of-force incidents, and calls for greater transparency around ongoing investigations. Cuomo presses him on accountability, coordination with local law enforcement, and whether ICE must do more to rebuild public trust. Dean reacts to President Trump's address, arguing Democrats must focus on health care costs, Medicaid cuts, tariffs, and the kitchen-table concerns voters are feeling. Callers from across the country challenge both parties — questioning Democratic tactics, rising costs, immigration policy, and whether the president actually addressed what working Americans are experiencing.

Chris Cuomo breaks down what Trump's State of the Union actually revealed — and why the biggest takeaway wasn't the applause lines or the outrage, but the absence of real solutions. Cuomo argues that beneath the pageantry and partisan theatrics was something far more consequential: a president who still doesn't have workable answers on affordability, health care, economic pressure, or transparency. While the speech leaned heavily on symbolism, cultural flashpoints, and partisan contrast, Cuomo says the real test is simple — who has a plan that improves everyday life? He also critiques how Democrats responded, why performance politics won't win the midterms, and why Abigail Spanberger's rebuttal offered a clearer model for how to move forward.

Brian Tyler Cohen (YouTube and podcast host, “No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen”) joins Chris Cuomo to break down his viral sit-down with Barack Obama — and what the former president's message reveals about the Democratic Party's identity crisis heading into 2026 and 2028. Cohen explains why the interview exploded online, what Obama represents in today's media environment, and why cultural cachet now matters as much as policy. The two debate whether Democrats need an outsider populist, a centrist unifier, or something closer to Obama's inside-outside balance. They also clash over AOC, the squad, the filibuster, generational change, and whether the party can actually deliver for voters frustrated by economic pressure and political chaos. The conversation also veers into transparency, UAPs, media power, and what Cohen's alien question to Obama accidentally revealed about public trust. At its core, this is about whether Democrats can move beyond scolding and slogans — and present something voters believe actually works.

The Detective’s Quota by David Cuomo, Elizabeth Pulido For many years, the Chicago south side neighborhood was virtually free of crime. Every once in awhile someone would commit a burglary, or a theft, and the police charged with keeping the neighborhood free of crime almost always captured the offender. However, in the year of 2010, three Bridgeport women were found raped and murdered in an alley adjacent to White Sox Park. As such crimes were rare in the area, the entire police department, fearing for the safety of women, went on a massive manhunt for the killer. That manhunt took a strange unexpected turn, as the evidence the department gathered indicated that one of its own members, namely John McBride, may have murdered the woman. This novels traces the investigation which led to John McBride’s arrest and his trial.

Chris Cuomo brings together key moments from this week's Cuomo Mornings on SiriusXM, featuring conversations with Michael Eric Dyson and Gary Vaynerchuk as the country reflects on the life and legacy of Reverend Jesse Jackson. Dyson shares personal stories from decades alongside Jackson, tracing his rise after Dr. King's assassination, the Rainbow Coalition campaigns of 1984 and 1988, and the relentless activism that defined his final years. The discussion turns to who carries that mantle now and what leadership looks like in a moment many Americans feel is lacking it. Gary Vee joins to talk about the algorithm-driven culture shaping politics, outrage, and self-worth — and why accountability, mindset, and economic opportunity may matter more than partisan warfare. Cuomo pushes back on whether social media is neutral, how political primaries reward extremes, and whether Americans still know how to disagree without dehumanizing one another. Calls from listeners also take the conversation into the Epstein controversy, transparency, media credibility, and the danger of conspiracy culture replacing serious inquiry.

Chris Cuomo breaks down why CBS and Paramount blocked Stephen Colbert from broadcasting an interview with Texas State Rep. James Talarico and why the justification being floated about the “equal time” rule doesn't hold up. Cuomo walks through the history of the 1934 Communications Act, the Mayflower Doctrine, and the Fairness Doctrine to explain what the FCC actually regulates — and what it doesn't. He argues that CBS did not have to preempt the interview to comply with the law, and questions whether this move was about legal risk or political pressure. The deeper issue, Cuomo says, isn't just one guest or one late-night show. It's how corporate media, government influence, and outdated regulations intersect — and why social media platforms operate with fewer guardrails than broadcast ever did. More speech, not less, is the answer, but only if it's applied consistently.

Chris Cuomo explains why the battle over ICE enforcement is entering a more dangerous phase — not winding down. He argues that what many see as isolated clashes are actually part of a broader pattern: heightened federal presence, sharper rhetoric, and political incentives that reward confrontation over resolution. Cuomo breaks down how enforcement tactics, protest dynamics, and partisan messaging are feeding off one another. He draws a clear line between supporting law enforcement and endorsing strategies that make conflict more likely, and asks who benefits when tension keeps rising instead of cooling. If the current trajectory holds, the fight over immigration enforcement won't stabilize on its own. The real question is whether anyone in power is willing to change course before escalation becomes the new normal.

Highlights from this week's Cuomo Mornings on SiriusXM feature a wide-ranging and candid conversation between Chris Cuomo and his brother, former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo. Andrew weighs in on the Epstein fallout, why he believes the issue has metastasized beyond MAGA politics, and how Democrats could use it in upcoming investigations. The brothers debate immigration enforcement, ICE tactics, the coming midterms, and whether Trump's constant escalation is creating drama fatigue among voters. Andrew argues the election will become a referendum on Trump's style of governance — not Democratic vision. The show also includes listener calls on snowstorm mismanagement, law enforcement tactics, media bias, and the broader question of what accountability really looks like in today's politics — along with classic Cuomo sibling rivalry and stories from growing up.

Chris Cuomo makes a blunt admission: he was wrong to treat the Epstein story as noise. “Epstein is everything,” he says — not because of conspiracy theories or partisan gotchas, but because the files expose how power protects itself. Cuomo breaks down why this isn't about Pizzagate, QAnon, or scoring points against Donald Trump. It's about a two-tiered system where elites operate under different rules — in politics, corporate power, media, and justice. He explains why the Department of Justice was never the right vehicle for full transparency, why redactions raise serious legal and ethical questions, and why names must be released under the law.

Using my code will get you 20% off a pro plan.#ad Chris Cuomo lays out why he believes the Trump administration is laying the groundwork to interfere with the midterms — and why this moment can't be dismissed as another off-the-cuff remark. Cuomo walks through Trump's fixation on Georgia, the seizure of already audited ballots, and the president's use of the word “nationalize” when talking about elections — a word that signals intent, not accident. Cuomo explains what the Constitution actually says about who controls elections, why the executive branch has no authority to take them over, and how Congress could still be used to restrict participation under the guise of reform. He connects the dots between election rhetoric, economic anxiety, and a K-shaped economy where Wall Street thrives while voters struggle with affordability, health care costs, and stagnant pay. The core question Cuomo raises is simple but urgent: if a president fears losing power, how far will he go to protect it — and what happens to the country if elections themselves become the battlefield?

Chris Cuomo highlights key moments from this week's Cuomo Mornings on SiriusXM, bringing together two conversations that cut through noise and ideology. Kevin O'Leary joins to break down the reality of the U.S. economy beneath the headlines — from tariffs and affordability to why small businesses are getting squeezed while markets stay near record highs. Cuomo presses O'Leary on whether Trump's policies are helping everyday Americans or quietly undercutting the very entrepreneurs they depend on heading into the midterms. Independent journalist Matt Taibbi follows with a wide-ranging discussion on press freedom, political instability, and the dangerous incentives driving modern media. Taibbi explains why journalists don't have special rights under the law — and why that makes government pressure on reporters even more alarming — while Cuomo challenges both parties on escalation, outrage economics, and leadership failures fueling national instability. Callers also dive into press freedom, the arrest of Don Lemon, and growing concern over how far the government can go before journalism itself is treated as a crime.

Dave tries to figure out what Zen meant when they said inanimate objects talk to us, and how to stay sustainably weird in a society that (for some reason) expects us to be reasonable productive members of it. What level of function do we owe our friends and families, and what does it cost us to play along? What kind of wonder do we lose in an age of reason, and is it possible to live in a world of rational magic? We talk to plants, but can you empathize with a tree, argue with a vacuum, talk to a computer?? Find out here!

Chris Cuomo reacts to and analyzes the arrest of Don Lemon following a protest inside a Minnesota church, arguing that the case raises far bigger questions than Lemon himself. Cuomo explains why personal feelings about Lemon — his style, his choices, or his politics — are clouding a more serious issue: whether the government should be deciding who counts as a journalist and when reporting becomes a crime. Cuomo walks through what the law actually requires, why the FACE Act is being stretched in a way that should concern journalists and non-journalists alike, and why the arrest of Lemon — and fellow journalist Georgia Fort — represents a dangerous precedent even if you strongly dislike how Lemon operates. He also addresses the tension between free speech and freedom of worship, the difference between bad judgment and criminal conduct, and why this case is not a close call in his view.

Chris Cuomo delivers a one-year report card on Donald Trump's second term, grading the presidency category by category based on what Americans are actually experiencing. From immigration enforcement and civil rights to the economy, foreign policy, and the country's overall sense of stability, Cuomo lays out where the administration delivered, where it fell short, and where the consequences have been unmistakable. Cuomo argues that Trump identified issues with broad public support — border enforcement, cost of living, projecting strength — but repeatedly undermined those advantages through escalation, rhetoric, and governing by provocation. He explains how immigration became a political loser despite majority support for enforcement, why tariffs and manufactured chaos haven't helped everyday Americans, and how the administration keeps turning momentum into self-inflicted damage. The analysis also digs into radicalization, outrage-driven media, and why politics increasingly resembles performance instead of leadership. Cuomo closes with a blunt question at the one-year mark: is this presidency making life better for most Americans — or simply louder, harsher, and more divided?

Hollywood and the media are in full meltdown mode after Don Lemon's arrest, and the reactions say everything. In this episode, we break down the arrest itself, the media response, and why so many high-profile figures rushed to defend him. From Jane Fonda to Megyn Kelly, Cuomo, Geraldo, and even Nicki Minaj, the fallout quickly spiraled into a cultural and political firestorm. Plus, Melania Trump's box office numbers spark outrage among critics, new Epstein file revelations raise serious questions, and shocking fraud allegations emerge from California hospice centers. The episode also covers growing protests, ICE operations, immigration enforcement, media double standards, Democrat hypocrisy online, and Candace Owens' latest controversy — all while political memes and viral moments continue to dominate the conversation.00:00 Intro00:40 Groundhog Day02:50 Worst Grammys outfits07:05 Billie Eilish & Trevor Noah push radical narratives10:25 Ricky Gervais calls out Hollywood10:50 Ad – Lean12:30 Melania Trump box office numbers & Hollywood backlash15:35 Detransition lawsuit wins $2M judgment17:05 Bill Gates named in Epstein file dump18:50 Ruthless Podcast with Scott Bessent21:15 California hospice fraud exposed22:55 Ad – BonCharge25:00 Speaker Johnson optimistic on midterms27:45 Don Lemon arrested – fallout & media reaction34:00 Jane Fonda defends Lemon35:40 Trump responds to Lemon arrest39:00 Don Lemon's past controversies resurface41:10 Cuomo, Megyn Kelly & Geraldo pile on49:45 Nicki Minaj roasts Don Lemon52:00 Democrat hypocrisy on X54:50 Trump on immigration enforcement55:50 New NJ governor meltdown58:15 Protesters set up blockades & ID checks01:00:10 ICE agents & Alex Pretti incident01:01:15 Seattle police push back on radical mayor01:06:00 Political memes & Trump retweets critics01:09:05 Candace Owens vs Erika Kirk & Israel comments01:13:50 Piers Morgan reacts to Candace backlash01:18:35 Candace mocked online01:20:30 Culture & TikTokSUPPORT OUR SPONSORS TO SUPPORT OUR SHOW!Lose meaningful weight healthily with LEAN—get 20% off at https://TakeLean.com using code CHICKS.

Chris Cuomo brings together key moments from this week's Cuomo Mornings on SiriusXM as the fallout from Minnesota collides with immigration enforcement, political rhetoric, and the fight over what comes next.Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY) weighs in on the administration's aggressive approach, sanctuary city policies, and why breakdowns between federal, state, and local authorities helped fuel chaos. Cuomo presses Lawler on rhetoric, escalation, and whether the White House misread how Americans would react to deadly consequences playing out in the streets.Democratic strategist Chuck Rocha joins to break down why overreach has shifted the political terrain, how Democrats risk fumbling the moment, and why affordability — not outrage — still drives voters heading into the midterms. Across interviews and calls, Cuomo challenges both parties on immigration, enforcement, and the widening gap between political theater and the realities Americans are living with.

Chris Cuomo breaks down why what's unfolding in Minnesota isn't an isolated failure, but a repeatable pattern driven by escalation, provocation, and political convenience. He walks through how federal immigration enforcement tactics collided with protest, rhetoric, and poor leadership decisions — producing outcomes that were foreseeable long before they became deadly.Cuomo argues this moment forces adjustments on both sides ahead of the midterms. He explains why dehumanization, overreach, and “us vs. them” politics keep producing the same results, why blaming pawns won't fix the underlying problem, and why most Americans are actually aligned on enforcing the law the right way. Minnesota, he says, shows what happens when power is exercised without restraint — and why pretending it's an exception only guarantees repetition.

Start with a word we all hear too much: fascism. Now ask why, with the term everywhere, our understanding keeps getting worse. That's the puzzle we dig into as Sudip Bhattacharya joins C. Derick Varn to dissect how American punditry flattens history, confuses categories, and protects the status quo with buzzwords instead of analysis. From cable news panels that treat any state action as “authoritarian,” to former neocons who reinvent themselves as respectable anti‑Trump voices while dodging their own records, we map the machinery that makes bad takes inevitable.The conversation moves from media habits to concrete stakes: Israel‑Palestine as a settler colonial project, the perverse weaponization of antisemitism, and the bizarre spectacle of far‑right figures courting Israel while trafficking in bigotry. We examine how this fog invites real antisemitism to grow and erases anti‑Zionist Jewish voices. Then we turn local: the Cuomo vs. Mamdani showdown in New York, where Islamophobic tropes, AI smear ads, and institutional panic collided with a multiethnic, youth‑driven coalition that showed what organizing can do. The story isn't about a savior candidate; it's about constituencies learning to convert movement energy into votes and power.Along the way, we chart the collapse of elite “competence”—tech barons LARPing masculinity, markets priced on fantasy, and leaders who cannot restore a fading consensus. That might sound bleak, but it's also an opening. We talk windows of opportunity: shifting public opinion on Palestine, younger voters rejecting old scripts, and the practical tools needed to make fast‑moving crises count—unions, tenant groups, legal defense, and media with memory. Precision beats panic. Structure beats vibes. If punditry sells amnesia, we trade in context: how we got here, what the rails look like, and where to lay new track.Listen, share with someone who's tired of vibes without history, and leave a review with the sharpest question this episode raised for you. Your notes shape what we tackle next.Link Discussed: https://revolpress.substack.com/p/comfortable-lies-how-pundits-enableSend us a text Musis by Bitterlake, Used with Permission, all rights to BitterlakeSupport the showCrew:Host: C.

Chris Cuomo responds to the killing of Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old U.S. citizen and intensive care nurse with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs who was shot and killed by federal agents in Minneapolis during protests over the Trump administration's immigration crackdown. Cuomo walks through what we actually know, why local leaders are pushing back hard against federal enforcement tactics, and how this moment fits into a familiar pattern of escalation — one where the outcome wasn't unpredictable.Cuomo makes a clear distinction between supporting law enforcement and accepting strategies that make violence more likely. He explains why flooding heavily armed federal agents into already tense protest zones doesn't calm situations down, and why pretending these outcomes are “shocking” after the fact avoids the harder question: what kind of country are we becoming if this keeps happening?

Chris Cuomo curates key moments from the past week of Cuomo Mornings in this YouTube edition, pulling together the conversations that defined the show as debates over power, policy, and real-world consequences continued to collide on his SiriusXM program. Lara Trump addresses questions about tariffs, health care costs, and why she argues President Trump's economic strategy is delivering results even as institutions push back. James Carville offers a stark counterpoint, criticizing Democratic leadership, warning that the political system is failing everyday voters, and weighing in on Greenland, ICE enforcement, and the dangers of governing through provocation instead of problem-solving. Listeners add their own blunt perspectives, pressing Cuomo on affordability, trust in the media, political independence, and whether either party still speaks for the American middle. Throughout the discussions, Cuomo keeps returning to the same pressure point: outrage and loyalty tests may dominate the political conversation, but they don't lower costs, restore trust, or improve people's lives—and voters are the ones paying the price.

Scott Jennings shuts down a dangerous CNN claim linking Trump to sex trafficking, sparking a heated debate over media accountability, political correctness, and the fight over words like “illegal immigrant.” The panel breaks down hypocrisy, law, and narrative control.

Chris Cuomo breaks down what's actually behind Trump's sudden push around Greenland — and why it fits a familiar pattern in how power and pressure are used. Cuomo explains how disruption is often deployed as leverage, not something meant to fully play out, and why markets, institutions, and allies are rarely allowed to absorb the consequences people are told to expect. The rapid shift from tariff threats to talks with NATO reinforces the idea that escalation is part of the maneuver, not the destination. Placing the Greenland move in historical context, Cuomo points to moments like the Great Depression and the Great Recession to show why “let whatever happens happen” has never been true. Whether it's markets, trade, or geopolitics, he argues that chaos is frequently the tool, not the endgame — and that recognizing this pattern matters far more than reacting to the headline of the week.

Michael Smerconish (host, SiriusXM's The Michael Smerconish Program, and CNN's Smerconish) joins Chris Cuomo to break down why American politics no longer reflects where most voters actually are. Cuomo examines how outrage-driven media, closed primaries, and algorithmic incentives reward the loudest fringe voices while sidelining the practical concerns of independents and moderates — from affordability and health care to trust in institutions.Cuomo and Smerconish dig into why nearly half the country now identifies as independent, why that reality is ignored by both parties, and how modern media economics make moderation a losing strategy. They also discuss whether shared civic spaces can still exist, how the “middle” gets erased by rage-based incentives, and what it would take to realign politics with how Americans actually live and think.

Over the holiday, Will and Chris caught up with Donald Borenstein, Andrew Epstein and Debbie Saslaw of the Mamdani media team to discuss how their video and online strategy helped win the campaign's stunning victory. We look at their team's success as the result of years of NYC organizing, how the candidate's principles and policy informed the media strategy, the right and wrong lessons on political communication from their campaign, and the bizarre outsider art of Adams & Cuomo's video output. PLUS: production, editing, color grading & gear talk for all you A/V heads.

Dave tells the story of the time Buddha preserved democracy for 2000 years and started a radical social revolution that not only didn't get anyone hurt or killed, but had the kings and power brokers of the day falling over themselves to support what he was doing.

What are we really trying to win and who are we really trying to convince?? Find out here!

Chris Cuomo breaks down how the viral “6–7” trend isn't just internet nonsense, but a symptom of something deeper — a growing rejection of certainty, authority, and good-faith interpretation in American life. What starts as shorthand for “this means nothing” becomes a way to dismiss facts, accountability, and moral clarity in a country still grappling with January 6.Cuomo connects that mindset to two moments that continue to haunt the national conscience: the January 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol and the January 7, 2026 killing of Renee Good during an ICE encounter. He argues the danger isn't only what happened, but how people justify it afterward — condemning violence on one side while explaining it away on the other. In a culture driven by outrage, tribal loyalty, and profit, “6–7” reflects how quickly moral lines collapse when nothing is taken seriously anymore.

Chris Cuomo breaks down why the nonstop political firestorms — from foreign crises to culture-war flashpoints — keep pulling attention away from the one issue hitting Americans hardest: the cost of living. From housing and health care to groceries, insurance, and wages, everyday affordability is squeezing families across the political spectrum, even as outrage-driven headlines dominate the conversation.Cuomo argues that these constant emergencies aren't accidental — they reward spectacle, distraction, and zero-sum politics while real economic pressure goes unaddressed. Whether it's Venezuela or the outrage-of-the-week at home, the result is a country fighting over everything except the problem most people actually feel every day: how expensive life has become.

Chris Cuomo breaks down the competing reactions to what just happened in Venezuela and why that “pick a side” framing misses the real issue. He lays out why the operation went forward, what it cost, why the aftermath is more complicated than “bad guy out, good guys in,” and the biggest unanswered questions about what the Trump administration is doing now and what comes next. Then, Rick de la Torre (founder and CEO, Tower Strategy, and former CIA Caracas Station Chief) joins Chris to explain what the post-operation reality looks like on the ground, why stability often means dealing with whoever is actually inside the country, and how a reported CIA assessment fits into the decision to leave parts of the existing power structure in place—plus what that implies for the next phase in Venezuela.

Chuck Rocha (political consultant, Democratic strategist, and President & Founder, Solidarity Strategies) joins Chris Cuomo to break down what Democrats are getting wrong heading into the midterms and why “fighting harder” is not the same as winning. Rocha explains how campaigns are being distorted by incentive structures that reward outrage, viral conflict, and online validation over persuasion and coalition-building. Cuomo and Rocha dig into what actually moves voters outside the algorithm, why working-class support is harder to hold than party leaders want to admit, and how Democrats can sell a governing agenda without mimicking Trump-style politics. They also talk through what messages cut across identity and ideology, why authenticity beats performance, and what a real winning strategy looks like when the electorate is exhausted and distrust is the default.

Chris Cuomo lays out five interconnected predictions for 2026 — not as isolated forecasts, but as a chain reaction driven by exhaustion, escalation, and a public fed up with how power is exercised. He warns that the rising stakes of political rhetoric and performative outrage make some kind of major internal attack increasingly likely, and explains why the aftermath — misinformation, blame, and manipulation — will force a reckoning with social media algorithms that profit from division. Cuomo argues that MAGA is unsustainable in its current form and will begin collapsing under the weight of constant hostility, setting the stage for a pivotal midterm election. Whether Democrats capitalize or squander that moment, he says, will determine whether the results are historic or razor-thin. He closes with his biggest prediction: the next president won't be a familiar figure, but someone outside the system, emerging from a public desperate for disruption, perspective, and a way out of the exhaustion cycle driving American politics.

We're being blatantly pushed towards manipulated perception and controlled actions. Systemic problems cannot be fixed by a narrowing focus on isolated groups. It's about responsibility, not getting credit. Self focus is the later result of living in the shadows. Enduring the human experience is cathartic. The control release part is hard. Dissonance begins now. Actual audits and documented info didn't work. It took a You Tuber operation to make this an issue. Think controlled exposure. Delayed outrage signals operators. Exposure is managed. Egregious fraud exists in all states. It was well documented in the first Trump term. Why just hold Walz accountable? Infiltrators are everywhere and participants are scattered. Structures survive in a controlled burn. Narrative downgrades fed by a media that hates truth. People are waiting for someone else to fix this. Gov. Bergam saw the audit results and then made them illegal. Covid shows how truth is ignored. Elder care is the next flaming fraud factory. Cuomo killed so many. Nigeria as a crypto and money laundering center. Estonia is where digital keys are broken. Quantum hybrid AI already exists. Sensationalism makes people comfortable. Real action is just the opposite. And timing is everything.

Kevin Dahlstrom (Founder, Bolt Health) joins Chris Cuomo for a wide-ranging conversation about why money, status, and constant striving so often fail to produce a good life — and what actually does. The discussion begins with Dahlstrom's viral list of 55 rules for life and expands into a deeper look at health, performance, purpose, and the quiet habits that compound over decades. Cuomo and Dahlstrom talk candidly about aging, hormones, fitness, family, minimalism, and why wisdom is easy to articulate but hard to live — especially in a culture built around shortcuts, optimization, and comparison. They also explore why performance matters more than longevity alone, how chasing “more” can crowd out meaning, and why the most reliable improvements in life tend to be boring, incremental, and deeply human rather than flashy or extreme."

In our annual news quiz, listeners call in to answer trivia questions about the past year in politics, culture, and more. 

Representative Ro Khanna (D-CA) joins Chris Cuomo to lay out what he believes is the strongest path forward for Democrats—one that centers affordability, health care, wages, and jobs instead of endless outrage over Donald Trump. Khanna explains why letting Affordable Care Act subsidies expire would hurt millions of Americans, how Medicare for All could reduce costs by cutting middlemen and negotiating prices, and why Democrats lose credibility when they campaign against Trump without offering a substantive economic alternative. Cuomo and Khanna debate whether outrage-driven politics actually wins elections, the influence of corporate money and PACs, the decline of unions, and why Democrats risk becoming defined solely in opposition to Trump. They also tackle foreign policy flashpoints—from Venezuela to Gaza—faith and extremism, and what Khanna calls a “new economic patriotism” aimed at restoring the American Dream before the 2026 midterms.

Dan Farah (director and producer, “The Age of Disclosure”) joins Chris Cuomo to explain why dozens of senior military, intelligence, and political officials are now going on the record about unidentified anomalous phenomena—and why the U.S. government has kept so much hidden for decades. Farah breaks down how his documentary brought together bipartisan voices with direct knowledge of UAP programs, what they were legally allowed to say, and why secrecy around non-human technology has persisted for more than 80 years. Cuomo and Farah examine the national security implications of unexplained craft operating near nuclear sites, the race to reverse-engineer advanced technology, and why even presidents have been kept in the dark. They also explore the stigma that has suppressed serious inquiry, the growing bipartisan push for transparency, and what meaningful disclosure could look like—without sensationalism, but with accountability.
