Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta unpack Trump's chaotic first 100 days as warning signs of a recession mount and the administration stokes a bizarre culture war—this time over girls' dolls. They examine Scott Bessent's comments on “strategic uncertainty,” David Frum's viral tweet on gendered consumer politics, and Trump's backpedaling on trade deals despite earlier promises. Kander and Gupta also dive into alarming new reports on Trump family corruption, including billions made through crypto ventures and foreign-backed investments that blatantly conflict with Trump's role as president. Plus, they break down the fallout from a scathing New York Magazine exposé on Senator John Fetterman's health and behavior, the turmoil in his office, and the growing calls for a special election in Pennsylvania.

Trump has effectively imposed a trade embargo on China, which means that after the inventory runs out, American retail will soon dry up. Since Europeans are already bypassing U.S. military contractors to beef up their defense spending —El Salvador is our only ally now— Trump is likely to do something desperate, like firing the Fed chair or seizing Greenland. American presidents decades from now will still be cleaning up what Trump did to this country in 2025. David Frum breaks down the insanity and stupidity of the vision behind the tariffs regime as well as the deep feelings of betrayal in Canada. If globalism means peace, prosperity, and commerce, then let's be globalists.  David Frum joins guest host Jonathan V.

The second Trump administration hasn't started, but it's already proving chaotic, disturbing, and downright bewildering. (Not unlike the first!) Trump's picks for key staff and cabinet positions display a discordant, if not altogether surprising, mix of ideologies, experience, and scandalous baggage. (Indeed, one of his picks, Matt Gaetz for Attorney General, withdrew from consideration between the time we recorded our interview and when we recorded the intro.)For this episode, we're focused on Trump's national security team, which is shaping up to be divided against itself: neoconservatives like Marco Rubio (State) alongside quasi-isolationists like Tulsi Gabbard (Director of National Intelligence) alongside bellicose TV personalities like Pete Hegseth (Defense). To make sense of it all, we're joined by Curt Mills, a longtime foreign policy reporter and executive director of The American Conservative.  A semi-enemy, Curt hails from the paleoconservative school of foreign affairs, which prioritizes realism and restraint. (That is to say, he's not thrilled about Rubio...) Based on Trump's appointments thus far, we ask Curt to assess, from his perspective, the relative strength of various factions of the Trump coalition: Will Trump listen to the warmongers in his midst? Will he side with the America Firsters? Or will he ignore everyone and just make some deals? Listen to find out.  Further Reading: Curt Mills, "What a Trump Cabinet Might Look Like," The American Conservative, Oct 18, 2024.— "What Trump Could Do in Foreign Policy Might Surprise the World," NYTimes, May 13, 2024.Patrick Smith & Peter Alexander, "Police report details alleged sexual assault by Trump's defense pick Pete Hegseth," NBC News, Nov 21, 2024. Baker, Haberman, Swan, "Gaetz's withdrawal follows revelations in a sex-trafficking inquiry."

From February 10, 2018: In his recent New York Times bestseller “Trumpocracy: The Corruption of the American Republic,” David Frum, senior editor of The Atlantic, lays out a compelling account of how President Donald Trump's tendencies could push the United States toward the illiberalism that many Americans believe the republican system of government to be immune to. In an event on Feb. 7 at the Brookings Institution, Frum sat down with Jonathan Rauch, Elaine Kamarck, and Lawfare's Benjamin Wittes for a conversation and Q&A on the book and Trump's threats to democracy.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

Note: Things got a little heated on CNN Friday morning. It's been a long election year. Nevertheless and always a mensch, Jonah addresses the controversy related to Donald Trump's recent comments regarding Liz Cheney. Manic, spiritually exhausted, and scarred from attempting to get Pippa into her Halloween costume, Jonah capitulates to a brief period of punditry until he is overwhelmed with nausea and pivots to a scathing critique of the right's new obsession with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Later in the episode, Jonah gives a lesson on self-determination, indulges in even more Woodrow Wilson bashing, sings the praises of Yuval Levin once again, and dismantles the case for “unity.” Show Notes —Jonah's statement —Jonah's RFK Jr. tear —Matthew Scully on RFK Jr. —Jonathan Adler's response —Jonah's anti-endorsement endorsement —Wilson-gate —David Frum's defense of Wilson —Jonah on Mo News Podcast The Remnant is a production of The Dispatch, a digital media company covering politics, policy, and culture from a non-partisan, conservative perspective.

Republicans want to label Kamala Harris as the border czar. And by just looking at a chart, you can see why. Border crossings were low when Donald Trump left office. But when President Biden is in the White House, they start shooting up and up — to numbers this country had never seen before, peaking in December 2023. Those numbers have fallen significantly since Biden issued tough new border policies. But that has still left Harris with a major vulnerability. Why didn't the administration do more sooner? And why did border crossings skyrocket in the first place?Harris was not the border czar; she had little power over policy. But to the extent that there is a border czar, it's the secretary of homeland security, Alejandro Mayorkas. So I wanted to have him on the show to explain what's happened at the border the past few years — the record surge, the administration's record and what it has revealed about our immigration system.Book Recommendations:The Nickel Boys by Colson WhiteheadString Theory by David Foster WallaceThe DictionaryThoughts?

Plus, Tucker's praise and promotion of Holocaust denialism, Vance's pathological feelings about women, and the continuing tragedy of guns everywhere in America.  David Frum joins Tim Miller. show notes: Frum's recent piece on the Gaza protesters
