POPULARITY
Trump pushes for his budget bill on Capitol Hill as the GOP's self-imposed deadline approaches. Then, how the President's economic agenda is leading foreign investors to turn away from the U.S. And, the Justice Department opens an investigation into former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo over congressional testimony he gave last year. Luke Broadwater, Jeff Mason, Dave Weigel, Max Chafkin, Justin Wolfers, Tim Miller, Joel Payne, and Leah Litman join as Melissa Murray hosts The 11th Hour this Tuesday.
With Donald Trump's approval ratings falling, that means some of his voters aren't getting what they voted for. We talked to those voters, to find out what that does and doesn't mean about their relationship to this administration (spoiler: they DON'T wish they'd voted for Kamala Harris). Semafor's Dave Weigel joins the show to break down how those voters are feeling, and the battle lines for the upcoming legislative battles over Trump's agenda. show notes By Dave Weigel: Democrats' new pitch: Down with the king Democrats are all but done with Trump impeachment talk
The Nightcap roundtable discusses Trump's second term as the 100 day mark swiftly approaches. Then, POTUS suggests he is negotiating a trade deal with China, but Chinese officials say talks are not occurring. Plus, the markets are in chaos as Trump's approval rating steadily declines. And, see who made this week's MVP list. John Harwood, Dave Weigel, and Jason Johnson join The 11th Hour this Friday.
The White House races to hold off an economic free fall. Plus, a tense court battle in the case involving the father mistakenly deported to El Salvador. And, the President escalates his threats against Harvard. Jon Allen, Luke Broadwater, Gillian Tett, Natasha Sarin, Mark Joseph Stern, Mark McKinnon, Dave Weigel, and Wilfred Frost join The 11th Hour this Tuesday.
Semafor reporter Dave Weigel returns to the show to look at the political angles to Trump's tariff regime and the global economic shocks. We discuss the various attempts to backfill justifications, responses from GOP and Democrats, and how this is all somehow about wokeness and masculinity or something. We also discuss last week's special election in Wisconsin, and what it can tell us about Trump (and Elon)'s strength going forward.

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

Today is the beginning of the Tangle team's “spring break.” As part of fostering work-life balance and also assuring our small team can survive the nonstop stream of news, I give our staff three breaks a year: one during August recess when Congress is out, one between Christmas and New Year's, and one in March — a “spring break.”Our March break begins today. The team is taking full advantage of it — we're spread out from Japan to West Texas, taking vacation or recharging at home. However, as our team has grown, so too has our capacity to provide some content while we take breaks like this. So this week, in lieu of a newsletter, we are going to be sharing a series of podcast episodes that we didn't get a chance to publish in the deluge of news these past few weeks.The first is with Dave Weigel, a reporter at Semafor. Weigel is one of my favorite journalists. Whenever I check in on his Twitter feed or read his updates in Semafor, I get the sense that he is fair-minded and critical of all his subjects regardless of their politics. On top of letting his personality shine through in his writing, he's also well-sourced, level-headed, and forward-thinking. So, when he agreed to chat with me about the first couple months of the Trump administration, where Congress is headed, and how voters are reacting to all this, I was thrilled.

It's taken us nearly seven years, but the time has come. Midnight Oil, one of Australia's quintessential bands, is probably best known for its tireless political activism as expressed through hits like "Beds Are Burning" and "Blue Sky Mine," as well as the on-stage acrobatics of their 6′4″ frontman, Peter Garrett. But behind the sloganeering and agitprop, the Oils are a fiendishly creative and charmingly oddball band, and their 1982 Australian breakout album 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, recorded at a make-or-break moment for the group, was when they first really landed on their unmistakable aura. Rich has been an Oils fan literally since he was a teenager, and he's called in Ben and returning special guest Dave Weigel to deconstruct 10 to 1 and all of the power and the passion that went into these incredible songs.

Slam the Gavel welcomes Dave Weigel to the podcast. Mr. Weigel is a top Fixed Income money manager in New York who comes to us via his advocacy work, a pretty far way from Wall St. Dave is more well known to some as the Family Court Fraud Warrior on social media (Facebook) and in the press. His divorce in New York is going into it's 14th year this month. After suffering 12 years of legal abuse, he decided to take his analysis of what he calls the most blatant Government Sponsored Racketeering system to the Court of Public Opinion. For the last 2 years, he's been highlighting to an ever growing audience the play by play of what he calls this Business Model of Fraud. With a slew of other victims found from around the country, his newest initiative is to unite all victims nationwide into a single voice demanding change by calculating the data provided directly from these victims. Dave Weigel hopes his Wall Street experience in data mining and financial analysis can finally bring the needed transparency of this system to affect real change. He's welcoming all victims who hear his voice to register at Family Court Fraud Warrior Project on Facebook. A group on a mission to collect the needed data otherwise hidden by what he calls extremely self-serving privacy laws regarding children. We discussed the case of Monica Ciardi and there will be having a press release on February 14th, 2025 at Morris County Courthouse, 56 Washington Street Morristown, NJ 07960 at 11:00am. Please take the time to be there with others in support for Monica Ciardi.

Slam the Gavel welcomes Investigative Journalist Richard Luthmann to the podcast. We discussed the case of Monica Ciardi who has been jailed in Essex County, New Jersey Correctional Facility. WHY is this 110 lb. woman STILL jailed over 180 days in Essex County, the seat of Newark NJ, one of worst jail population and not being treated medically? What happened was, Judge Peter Bogaard, in Morris County, NJ, had stated in family court to Monica, "If you don't do what I say, you'll never see your children again." Monica then quoted him on Facebook, but forgot to put the phrase in quotations. Judge Bogaard took it as a "terroristic threat" against his own children. She was then arrested and now jailed unlawfully for exercising her First Amendment rights. Monica is not in good health while she sits in jail at taxpayers expense on the whim of a judge. The family court judges have a habit of not looking at evidence, disregarding Pro Se's and relying on hearsay. We discussed Cancel Culture and how it evolved, which explains how society has deteriorated and families being torn apart.To Reach Richard Luthmann: Luthmann.Substack.com and Richard.luthmann@protonmail.com***** Supportshow(https://www.buymeacoffee.com/maryannpetri)Maryann Petri: dismantlingfamilycourtcorruption.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@maryannpetriFacebook: https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/guitarpeace/Pinterest: Slam The Gavel Podcast/@guitarpeaceLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/maryann-petri-62a46b1ab/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@slamthegavelpodcasthostmar5536 Twitter https://x.com/PetriMaryannEzlegalsuit.com*DISCLAIMER* The use of this information is at the viewer/user's own risk.

This week, we're looking back at the 2024 election and forward at the next administration. To do that, we have Semafor's Dave Weigel on the show. He joined us shortly before the election to discuss each campaign's gun messaging. Now, he's back to sort through what worked, what didn't, and where things go from here. Weigel agreed there probably wasn't enough detailed evidence to suss out exactly how well each message performed. But he said the recent downturn in Democratic support for handgun bans is probably tied to Kamala Harris emphasizing her Glock ownership. However, the fact handgun bans are so unpopular to begin with probably underscores how much her history of backing such bans drug her campaign down. He also looked ahead at the new GOP-controlled federal government. Weigel said Donald Trump may be more motivated to undo what Joe Biden has done rather than push new gun-rights reforms of his own. He also said Congress is unlikely to pass significant new legislation but will be able to confirm a lot of pro-gun judges--though, he noted the GOP majority may be more fragile than it appears at first glance. Special Guest: Dave Weigel.
Trump selects Rep. Mike Waltz as his National Security Adviser, with plans to nominate Marco Rubio as Secretary of State and appoint Kristi Noem as Homeland Security Secretary.

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Dave Weigel, politics writer at Semafor, author of the "Americana" newsletter just one day out from the 2024 election. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on final-day swing state polling, the lingering impact of Trump's fascist rally at MSG, the electoral drag of Harris' support for genocide, RFK's fluoride attack, Israel's banning of UNRWA and enforced starvation in Gaza, and the NYT Tech Guild strike, before touching on Trump's ongoing deterioration and Mike Johnson's wild slip-up over the CHIPs Act. Dave Weigel then joins, diving right into the major Selzer poll out of Iowa, what it shows us regarding Harris' overwhelming support from women, and what this poll (and others) can tell us about the success of Harris' voter outreach across swing states. Weigel, Sam, and Emma also parse through the numbers behind early voting, why Democrats aren't particularly pressed about them, and the evolving constituency of independent voters, before touching on the GOP's GOTV fiasco – led by Elon Musk and Charlie Kirk. After briefly reflecting on the lingering impact of Trump's Bund rally at MSG, they get into a preview of the Senate fight, what the best/worst case scenarios are for Dems and Republicans across the Presidency, House, and Senate, and what particular races might act as bellwethers for the greater election. Sam also highlights a John Oliver segment on Georgia Rep. Ruwa Romman's comments on voting for Harris. And in the Fun Half: Emma talks with Greg from Massachusetts about down-ballot voting and the secret men for Harris vote, dives deep into the context for and meaning behind Selzer's Iowa poll (with some added commentary from Trump and, later on, Jeff from Iowa), and Tim from Chicago asks about the election night timeline. Tucker reflects on wrestling with his demons (and losing), RFK Jr. sets his sights on fluoride, and Steve Doocy can't quite put his finger on why women don't like Trump, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Emma speaks with Dave Weigel, politics writer at Semafor, author of the "Americana" newsletter, to discuss the biggest headlines of the week. Then, she speaks with comedian Francesca Fiorentini, host of the Bitchuation Room! First, Emma runs through updates on Israel's bombing of dense residential areas of Beirut and continuing war crimes at home and in Gaza, Harris' attempt to court Latino voters, Obama's attempt to court young black men, Trump's legal woes, Florida's power issues, voter registration in Florida and Georgia, Boeing's anti-labor action, and TD Bank's record-breaking money laundering fine, before parsing a little deeper into Trump decision to shit on the biggest city in a major swing state over… NATO tax rates? Dave Weigel then joins, diving right into the state of the US presidential race in major swing states like Arizona, highlighting Harris' recent pivot away from emphasizing a populist agenda towards vague bipartisan grandstanding with the few anti-Trump Republicans left while unpacking the positives (and negatives) of this approach electorally. Expanding on this, Dave and Emma parse through the polling numbers on high- and low-/mid-propensity voters – touching on Trump's particular ability to turn out that ladder group – and why Harris' strong numbers with newly registered voters is a major plus, before turning to the comparisons between the Dem's 2024 campaign and those in 2012 and 2016, and why the former – thankfully – might be the more accurate one. After touching on the evolution of Harris' messaging game post-convention, Weigel dives deep into the GOP's own insane choices for their messaging campaign – including a reliance on the ever-inconsistent Elon Musk and Turning Points – and what to make of their ongoing push for an anti-trans agenda despite its lack of electoral salience in the past, wrapping up the interview by assessing the dearth of a direct response to Republican narratives on crime, immigration, and trans rights, and what that vacuum in the Democratic messaging campaign might mean come November.

In Texas, Democratic Congressman Colin Allred is making Republican Ted Cruz work hard to keep his Senate seat, with polls showing the race within three percentage points. Cruz's campaign seems to think the best strategy for winning re-election is to lean into anti-trans messaging. Semafor politics reporter Dave Weigel joins us from the campaign trail in Texas to talk about how Cruz and other Republicans are leaning into anti-trans fearmongering this election cycle. Later, Grace Panetta, political reporter for The 19th, talks about how voter ID laws make it more difficult for trans people to vote.And in headlines: Hurricane Milton is expected to make landfall as soon as tonight, former President Donald Trump has reportedly spoken with Russian President Vladimir Putin ‘as many as seven' times since leaving office, and the Supreme Court flirts with putting restrictions on one specific type of gun.Show Notes:Dave Weigel's reporting: https://www.semafor.com/article/10/08/2024/anti-trans-ads-didnt-work-in-2022-republicans-think-this-time-will-be-differentSubscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

We're getting closer and closer to the election. And a lot of weird stuff has been happening. Our guest this week points out that Trump has been going “all in” for the “weird vote,” by choosing JD Vance as his running mate and elevating figures like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Dave Weigel covers politics and writes the “Americana” newsletter for Semafor. He's written about how the Trump-Vance coalition has aimed to cobble together contrarians, dissidents, conspiracy theorists and people who are distrustful of the so-called establishment into a majority coalition. Weigel joins WITHpod to discuss paranoid-esque low trust thinking at the core of the Republican Party base, Trump elevating figures from niche anti-establishment circles and what this all means in such a contentious election. Chris' latest book, “The Siren's Call: How Attention Became the World's Most Endangered Resource,” is now available for preorder. Read about it and preorder by visiting sirenscallbook.com.
It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma speak with Dave Weigel, author of the "Americana" newsletter at Semafor to discuss the state of play of the election ahead of tonight's presidential debate. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on tonight's debate, Israel's enormous bombing of a designated safe zone in Gaza, presidential polling, today's primaries, Boeing labor action, the GOP's threat of a government shutdown, and the NYPD Commissioner stepping down as the most recent collateral in the FBI's Eric Adams investigation, before parsing through some insane coverage of Israel's use of 2,000-pound bombs on tents in a designated safe zone in Gaza. Dave Weigel then joins to tackle his story in Semafor outlining reports of an incredibly secretive, and generally anonymous network of conservative influencers raking in five figures off of one meeting for promulgating sexual smears of Kamala Harris. After briefly expanding on the parallels between this story and the recently released DOJ indictment on Russian money influencing right-wing media, and unpacking the greater questions this raises about the funding mechanism of right-wing circles, Dave, Sam, and Emma dive deep into the US presidential election, the major missteps made so far by the fatigued Trump and nascent Harris campaigns, and debate preview, before wrapping up by briefly touching on the role of on Robert Kennedy in all of this. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Sarah Friedland's devastating acceptance speech at the Venice Film festival centering the nearly year-long genocide in Gaza, parse through the right wing's (including a vice presidential nominee) promotion and propagation of ANOTHER debunked conspiracy theory about immigrant violence in the US. John from San Antonio dives deep into his election previews, with a particular focus on the Senate races out of Montana and Nebraska, and the MR Crew watches Charlie Kirk and Joe Rogan get back to their roots (getting schooled by college kids and falling for any conspiracy the moment he hears it, respectively). Candace Owens picks up on another wildly insane Macron conspiracy, plus, your calls and IMs!

The Chapo 2024 Elections team returns to the pod to look at the state of the presidential race post-Democratic National Convention. Kamala's positioning in the election remains strong, but what does her convention performance tell us about a potential Harris administration? Is the Trump GOP really bungling this? Exactly how shitty is JD Vance as a VP pick, and is Tim Walz committing Dog Fraud? And just how much can the Democrats cover their ears and pretend Gaza doesn't exist after the convention? All this and more discussed in today's ‘sode.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.politix.fmThis week, Semafor's Dave Weigel joins Matt and Brian from Chicago to assess the Dem convention in Chicago:* Is DNC's treatment of credentialed journalists another sign that Democrats are consciously decoupling from the mainstream media?* Are there any politically meaningful differences between how the convention is playing out on national television and how people are experiencing it in person?* Can Harris get a polling bump out of the festivities, above and beyond the spike her post-launch campaign blitz generated? Then, behind the paywall, Matt and Brian pick up where they left off last week in their debate over whether Harris has improved economic sentiment simply by restoring optimism to the anti-Trump coalition. What does the data suggest? Will she come to regret her policy rollout if it turns out public opinion about the economy is already on the mend? Can she appeal to skeptical voters without staking out views on issues like price controls or deficit reduction that could prove to be unnecessary?All that, plus the full Politix archive are available to paid subscribers—just upgrade your subscription and pipe full episodes directly to your favorite podcast app via your own private feed. Further reading:* Brian argues the Harris campaign is purpose built to reassmble the national anti-Trump majority. * Matt argues this approach is too complacent.* Dave on how Harris has driven third-party polling into the ground.

Happy Monday! Sam and Emma speak with Dave Weigel, author of the "Americana" newsletter at Semafor, to discuss the groundbreaking news from yesterday that President Biden will be dropping out of the presidential race, and endorsing Vice President Harris. First Sam and Emma run through updates on Biden's candidacy, Trump's nomination, Harris' rapid fundraising efforts and endorsements, the Trump assassination attempt, Netanyahu's upcoming address to Congress, Israel's offensive on Yemen, and the NLRB, before diving into the supposed plan for an “open convention” come the DNC, watching Kamala Harris' first speech since this weekend's news, and unpacking some of Harris' major pitfalls. Dave Weigel then joins, as he looks to the GOP side of things, walking Sam and Emma through the last few weeks of Republican whiplash, from the post-debate euphoria from Biden's failure, through the supposed electoral boost that was the assassination attempt, and to the seeming state of panic around Biden's dropout and the fact they now have to pivot to Harris. After expanding on the surprisingly minimal impact of the Trump assassination on the race, Dave explores what a Kamala Harris nomination could do to change the narrative of the Democrats' gerontocracy, what to expect from the convention come August, and how to make sense of the small-D democracy of it all. Weigel, Sam, and Emma also discuss reactions from the press and major media players, how Biden's move will shape down-ballot elections going forward, and why most of the GOP talking points against Harris are winning issues for Democrats. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch the conservative establishment from Fox News to Donald Trump to Elon Musk all come together to scream “coup” and “fraud” over Biden's decision to step down, despite their supposed opinion on his senility. Morning Joe unpacks the turn in the Biden campaign's approach to dropping out, another Dave Rubin prediction comes back to haunt him, and figures from the UAW to the VP reject Netanyahu's upcoming address to Congress, plus, your calls and IMs!
