In this episode of For the Good of the Public podcast, Michael and Phebe present a talk from Eduard Heger, former Prime Minister of Slovakia. Eduard shares the challenges he faced  leading Slovakia from 2021 to 2023, through the escalation of the Russian-Ukraine war, a pandemic and an energy crisis. He focuses on what is required of leaders in tumultuous times–moral, integrity and character–to help build a resilient society for a more positive and better future.    Watch the video recording of this talk on YouTube! “What we need in this moment are leaders who are willing to tell the truth, who are honest about the challenges that their people are facing, who respond with care and compassion and have a spirit of generosity, and Eduard Heger is a leader like this.” -Phebe [01:44]  “One of the things we try to do throughout our summit, but really throughout the whole of the work at CCPL, is help to expand and reground our imagination for what public leadership can look like, the kinds of values that can ground public leadership and motivate it.” -Michael [03:14] “Serving politics is about serving. Nobody really believes that anymore, because they think it's about ruling. Well we know that if you want to rule, you must start with serving, because actually serving, that's how you rule the best. It's not in your interest. It's for the interest of society, of the good, of human mankind.” -Eduard [24:20] TIMESTAMPS [00:00] Intro [04:50] Governing Slovakia in unprecedented times [06:59] What's going on in the World today [13:47] In the digital era [17:07] Building a strong resilient society [23:54] Serving politics [32:02] Outro REFERENCES For the Good of the Public Summit Eduard Heger Russia's War in Ukraine: Identity, History, and Conflict CONNECT WITH US: Website: www.ccpubliclife.org X: @CCPublicLife Facebook: Center for Christianity & Public Life Instagram: @ccpubliclife Learn more about your ad choices.

Nicola Ilic is a social entrepreneur, activist, and adjunct professor of leadership at Georgetown University. He's the founder of Changelab and applies lessons from grassroots movements to transform how leaders build agency in others. In this episode, Nikola defines democratic leadership as enabling people to exercise leadership regardless of title when facing uncertainty rather than voting or consensus-building. The key difference is that instead of becoming the authority figure people depend on, democratic leaders create agency in their teams to handle challenges independently. He says that most leadership development initiatives fail to transform because they focus on comprehension rather than experiential learning. Nicola discusses the challenge facing emerging leaders who grew up in protected environments and can't handle uncertainty, explaining how leaders must create developmental challenges for their teams.  Listen to discover how to enable others to reach their leadership potential. You can find episode 475 on YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts! Watch this Episode on YouTube |   Key Takeaways [02:34] Nikola reveals he played basketball seriously in Serbia as a point guard, which taught him "individual excellence, work ethics and team play." [04:20] Nikola explains democratic leadership centers around "how do you relate to uncertainty" based on observing his young daughters. He notes that "authoritarians are always also fear mongers" because creating fear makes people search for a parental authority figure. [08:40] Nikola says to make our companies, our teams, our organizations better is to focus on the core, which is enabling people to "exercise leadership in the face of uncertainty, no matter what is their title". [11:53] He emphasizes that transformation requires "tacit learning" through immersed experience, like presenting to 40 CEOs despite being scared. [18:34] He shares his two most powerful questions: "what do you think?" and "tell me more" which he uses with kids, students, and everyone to develop their thinking. [20:50] Nikola explains how leaders course-correct reactive behavior is that leaders must enable all the talents because you need all the brains you can get. [26:07] He clarifies that "voting is not democracy - it's the ability to surface various ideas, let them compete and then come up with the best one" creating a "free market of ideas" and co-creation process. [31:15] Nikola teaches that effective democratic leaders must "differentiate initiative and extroversion from leadership" and act like "a conductor in the orchestra" who knows each team member's personality and draws out contributions from introverted members. [34:31] He notices three things in young leaders: people from "well protected childhoods" have "underdeveloped their ability to handle uncertainty," everyone is "looking for purpose," and many feel "there's something deeper that we need to change." [37:28] Nikola confirms students must test themselves and asks them "what is the highest good you can imagine?" because "when you aim for something that's huge" and believe in it, "challenges will feel very differently." [40:56] He shares growing up in Serbia during the 1990s war, joining a movement against dictatorship as a teenager, and discovering "we as kids can organize and use nonviolence to overthrow the worst dictator in Europe." [44:31] Nikola invites listeners to become "activists in unlikely places" by building allies through one-on-one conversations before making interventions. [48:15] And remember…“Only the wisest and stupidest of men never change.” - Confucius   Quotable Quotes "It just makes you person with a title and authority. Yeah, it's. I like to use this metaphor of, you know, if you see a person with a knife, what do you say oh, here's a chef. Or do you say oh, here's a murderer? Well, it depends what they do with the knife. It's the same with power, authority and title." "The core of Democratic leadership is how do you relate to uncertainty? How do you enable people to exercise leadership in the face of uncertainty, no matter what is their title." "Once acquire self reliance, kill is now there. And it's part of her identity, it's part of pride." "What do you think? And tell me more. These are two most powerful questions." "If you talk to anyone who built a successful business, they always tell you it's about playing a long game because who cares about short term if it's going to be wiped out long term?" "It's not voting. Voting is not democracy. Voting is just A part of democracy, right? It's the ability to surface various ideas, let them compete and then come up with the best one." "As Nietzsche said, he or she who knows why to live can bear. Anyhow, if you're doing something that you believe in, challenges will feel very differently." "If you want to change something in your organization, you can, but you have to think about it as a little activist project." "We got to connect the comprehension to the actual transformation." "At the end of the day, country, company, whatever it is, the vote happens with dollars. Okay, where do consumers spend their money? Consumers spend their money. That's how the best ideas percolate to the top and win." "We control two things. Where we spend our time and how we respond to our environment." "Your circle of influence is bigger than you think, potentially. "There's three things you can do. You can suck it up, you can try to change it, or you can move on."   Resources Mentioned The Leadership Podcast | Sponsored by | Rafti Advisors. LLC | Self-Reliant Leadership.

On this episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson, we are joined with Juliette Bryant, a courageous survivor of Jeffrey Epstein's vile sex trafficking operation. Lured by the promise of a modeling career, Juliette was instead ensnared in a web of calculated evil. She was abused, exploited, and flown to Epstein's private island where countless others suffered the same fate.This is more than a scandal. It is a moral reckoning. And yet, the full, unredacted Epstein list, containing the names of powerful men who enabled or participated in this wickedness, remains sealed. Why is that?Donald Trump promised the American people he would release it. Now, he mocks those demanding it, calling us “bad people” and “weaklings.” Well, it's actually bad and weak to fail to release the Epstein list, Mr. President. But we will not be intimidated. The righteous are commanded to expose darkness, not negotiate with it. Trump's evasiveness increasingly resembles guilt. It's certainly not strong leadership.We will not be silenced. Not by politicians, not by media, and not by fear. We demand the truth.--https://www.thebrandsunday.com/products/the-bible-study-physical?srsltid=AfmBOoq6zS6i2LVAaJq4sRAuJqL9WZWgV03ccH9c4dufm2XMD0ozmV5S

Virginia’s Republican governor and Democrats who control the General Assembly are clashing over immigration. Michael Pope reports.

Ben Wikler, Chair of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin, joins to discuss the critical Wisconsin Supreme Court race. Then, Ezra Levin, co-founder of Indivisible, examines the direction and leadership of the Democratic Party. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the shuttering of USAID, Russia-Ukraine ceasefire negotiations, Israel's revamped assault on Gaza, the DOJ's refusal to answer for its illegal deportations, Trump's killing of FTC operations, the gutting of the SSA, the abduction of Mahmoud Khalil, Trump's attempt to re-segregate, the Fed not to cut rates, the release of the JFK Files, GOP Sen. Eichorn's confirmation of pedocon theory, and HHS's gutting of HIV prevention, also highlighting Schumer's ongoing shame tour and the ongoing backlash the GOP's facing at their town halls. Ben Wikler then joins, diving right into the story of Wisconsin politics during the 2010s – and what it can foretell about this moment for our country – with a GOP trifecta coming into 2011 and using a supposed budget crisis to legitimize a complete crippling of the opposition as well as the progressive and worker movements, unleashing extensively gerrymandered maps, engaging in blatantly discriminatory voter suppression, and explicitly targeting language around progressive issues (e.g. banning the term “climate change”). After diving deep into the particular role the Conservative majority on the State Supreme Court played in bolstering the unparalleled executive power of Governor Scott Walker, and how a revamped focus on the Court helped begin the Democrats' slow crawl back into control, Wikler zeroes in on the ongoing State Supreme Court race between Brad Schimel – dedicated MAGA-Musker – and Susan Crawford, exploring the insane multi-million dollar investment into Schimel by Elon Musk, including blatantly illegal propaganda misrepresenting both his own organization and the candidates, wrapping up by emphasizing the importance of tying the entire conservative movement to the MAGA/Musk agenda they support, and exploring what those of us on the outside can do to help. Ezra Levin then joins, first running through the inception of Indivisible in the wake of the 2016 elections to combat the heinous agenda of Donald Trump and address the vacuum in Democratic leadership, before diving deep into the culmination of this effort, with last week's failure by Democratic Leadership in the Senate to stand up against the Trump/Musk budget seeing an unprecedented level of backlash, with their caucus, House Leadership, and the mainstream media all leveling blunt questions of Chuck Schumer. Levin, Sam, and Emma parse through a few of Schumer's recent TV appearances, as they dissect his utter strategic failures in using leverage in their fight with the GOP or in working with fellow Democrats, before wrapping up by tackling the future of this fight as Democrats look to find other pathways for messaging, and what those of us at home can do to help Indivisible's fight. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Chuck Schumer get slammed by Chris Hayes in the wake of his humiliating capitulation to Trump and the GOP, listen to Elon Musk's plea to empathize with the automotive class, and unpack Tim Pool's attempt to revamp his relevancy on the coattails of Sam's Jubilee video.

SEASON 3 EPISODE 109: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: How do you remove a Senate Democratic Leader? CAN you remove a Senate Democratic Leader? Oh my, yes. You can do it before the top of the hour. Certainly before tomorrow. I'll lay it out for you. It can happen provided you note Schumer is having a book event tonight at the Enoch Pratt Central Library in Baltimore at 7 PM. It takes a little guts. Takes angry civilians. Takes the 36 Senate Democrats and one Independent whom Chuck Schumer betrayed to stick their necks out again. Takes the whole lot of them to run the minor risk of fracturing the Senate caucus or the Democratic Party - but why not? It's not like they're doing anything. Not when TWO new polls suggest Democrats are fed up with this group, that vast majorities demand RESISTANCE to Trump, not bipartisan crap, that the leader who best represents the ideals of the party is AOC (10%) as opposed to Obama (4%) and Schumer (2%) and worst of all - nobody (30%). We should be talking about resistance, about Trump being twelve points underwater on the economy, about Musk retweeting the claim that Hitler didn't commit the holocaust, his public sector workers did, about Trump beginning to defy court orders to illegally deport people to third-party strongman states. But we're not - because of Chuck Schumer. Time for him to GO. B-Block (23:45) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: The world is coming apart and Politico devoted its lead 26 paragraphs to a journalism party. Alina Habba is a moron, Part 9,763.

Federal shutdown or continuing resolution? // Biggest mistakes people make in relationships? // SCENARIOS!

It's Hump Day! Sam speaks with Tariq Habash, former senior official at the Dept. of Education under President Biden, founder & director of the organization A New Policy, to discuss the Trump administration's actions taken regarding student loans. Then, he speaks with Dr. MarkAlain Dery, infectious disease specialist, founder of community radio station 102.3 WHIV-FM, and creator of the NoiseFilter podcast, to discuss the recent measles outbreaks in Texas & New Mexico. First, Sam runs through updates on Europe's retaliatory tariffs, public backlash to Trump's handling of the economy, the House's passage of a Continuing Resolution as the fight moves to the Senate, Trump's slashing of the DOE, Trump's $100m Tesla deal, Trump's disappearing of Columbia student and permanent US resident Mahmoud Khalil, Ukraine's support for a ceasefire, the DOJ's public corruption unit, and cuts to NOAA and the EPA, before expanding on the insane debate over the GOP's “clean” Continuing Resolution, and why Senate Democrats are so willing to hand over the US government to Elon Musk. Tariq Habash then joins, first stepping back to walk through his experience working in Biden's DOE before leaving in protest at the start of last year over the President's support of Israel's ethnic cleansing of Gaza, and unpack why the internal barriers to policy work so pushed him to establishing “A New Policy.” Moving forward, Habash explores why, despite Democrats' desires, the issue of the ethnic cleansing of Gaza will not go away under Trump, with his dreams to fully redevelop the Gaza strip in his own immaged backed by his revamping of Israel's assault and a domestic crackdown (including full-on dissappearings) of pro-Palestinian activism, with the recent abduction of Mahmoud Khalil working as Trump's perfect crime to wage war on the rights of Black and Brown permanant residents – capitalizing on Democratic Leadership's commitment to genocide to minimize dissent from the opposition. Shifting to the domestic policy side of things, Tariq brings Sam through Trump's attack on the DOE, walking through the department's long history as a Civil Rights agency, before diving deep into Trump's attack on the student loan and debt relief programs, which explicitly seek to target public service workers, and folks that work with trans folks, immigrants, or Palestinians. Wrapping up, Habash looks to the devastating impact Trump's DOE cuts will have on special education in the US, and what to make of our major educational institutions fully acquiesing to the regime. Dr. MarkAlain Dery then jumps right into a clear assessment of RFK's myriad destructive actions since being named HHS Secretary, from his lack of awareness about the ongoing measles crisis, to his cancelling of ACIP, and his backing of the all-around shutdown of any federal public health communications and much of its funding. After expanding on the fundamental problem with focusing on mitigating rather than preventative care, Dr. Dery walks Sam through the importance of a public health regime when it comes to addressing large-scale health issues facing the American public, pulling from his own recent work in New Orleans, before looking toward the biggest threats he sees facing the US' weakened public health infrastructure, including the threat of an ever-mutating bird flu, and the recent bubblings of hantavirus. Wrapping up, Dr. MarkAlain Dery reemphasizes that we have the capacity to fight against these threats, despite doubts about the current administration. And in the Fun Half: Sam dives into the outcome of the Democratic Party and mainstream media's complete acquiesence to the right wing's transphobic fearmongering, with Trump's regime implementing a full scale erasure and attack on trans identity and community, looking to Rep. Keating's complete takedown of Rep. Keith Self's blantant and direct misgendering of Rep. Sarah McBride. After expanding on Trump's recent $100m commercial deal with Tesla, and diving deep into Krystal Ball's coverage of Tesla's fraud allegations out of Canada, Sam and the MR Team dive deep into Sam's debate over social security on Jubilee.

Happy Friday! Sam and Emma chat with Ryan Grim, reporter at and co-founder of Drop Site News, co-host of Counter Points, to round up the week. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Trump's tariff flip-flops, Elon Musk's role in the Trump Administration, government job creation, the NLRB, Trump's federal fund freeze, GOP's surveilance state, US consulate shutdowns, the DOD's segregationist move, Elon's rocket fiascos, the CDC's measles rehires, TSA labor rights, and Democratic Leadership's anger over… protests against Trump? They also touch on Trump's complete confusion over fundamental immigration law amid another authoritarian power trip. Ryan Grim then joins, as he, Sam, and Emma first attempt to tackle the insanity of Trump's nonsensical economic agenda grounded in... repeated but (so far) brief stints of tariffs against our closest trade partners, looking to Greek Economist and politician Yanis Varoufakis' attempt to define Trump's economic ideology by its desire to spur US exports via economic turmoil and dollar depreciation, with this ongoing tariff war against Canada and Mexico supposedly serving to show Europe we mean business… despite it obviously making the agenda (and the man pushing it) look unserious, weak, and ineffective. After briefly touching on the possibility of this tariff scheme to serve as an repeatable pump-and-dump scam, Grim and the MR Crew dive deep into Joe Rogan's Billionaire Experience podcast, as they assess the ridiculousness of the blatant lies and wild conspiracy spread by Joe's Big Tech buddies, attacking everything from the CFPB to Frank Zappa, before shifting to some hope-inspiring GOP infighting as Elon Musk's path-of-destruction begins to haunt the cabinet faithful carrying out his orders. Wrapping up, Ryan, Sam, and Emma look to the ongoing struggle of Democratic leadership to act like an opposition party, and explore the potential of an actual challenge to the Democratic establishment. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma tackle Al Green's killer appearance on Democracy Now! in the wake of his across-the-aisle censuring over his protest of Trump's speech to a joint Congress, and parse through the stupidity of right-wing grifters who still can't grasp the concept of taxation. Mr. Flamboyant from Sonoma County unpacks Dem messaging, Rusty from Sacramento on Rep. Ami Bera's vote to censure Al Green, Patricia from Central Coast discusses the GOP's commitment to Musk's money, and Owen, the final California caller of the day, explores pressuring progressive Dems on challenging leadership. Ben Shapiro tries to find an expired culture war to revamp his relevancy, Caleb from Arkansas touches on community gardening and mutual aid, and Misty from Washington talks about Bernie's online influence and that pesky issue of Dem messaging, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Hump Day! Sam and Emma speak with Adam Green, co-founder of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee (PCCC), to recap Trump's joint address to Congress from last night. Then, they're joined by Saikat Chakrabarti, candidate for Congress in California's 11th district, to give some updates on his campaign. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Trump's speech to a joint session of Congress, Trump's attempted USAID shutdown, US aid to Ukraine, Blackrock's new move on Panama Canal, Trump's IRS cutdown, the firesale of federal properties, Trump v. judges, and OPM's mismanagement, before expanding on Democrats' varying protest tactics during Trump's speech last night, with a highlight on Rep. Al Green's message to get your hands off Medicaid. Adam Green then joins, jumping right into the complete fear of Democratic leadership to simply act, in any substantive manner, to stop or obstruct the Trump Administration, tackling leadership's seeming inability to understand the threat his regime poses to the future of democratic governance in the US, and unpacking what the productive work of Democratic representatives has looked like. After diving deep into Trump's insane breadth of Social Security lies that he fit into his joint session last night, and the direct contrasts we see between this ongoing fight and those under Bush (in 2005) and Obama (in 2013), Green also explores the strong disciplining force of Elon's legitimate threat to primary any Republican that goes against Trump, something very much reflected in Trump's own treatment of US allies. Next, Adam, Sam, and Emma parse through the ideal strategies moving forward, including emphasizing the GOP's departure from their voters' desires, the complete overstepping – both legally and financially – of Elon Musk, and the incredible devastation Trump's funding freeze and mass firings have had on our federal workers, wrapping up the interview by discussing a theoretical “progressive” version of the Laken Riley Act. Saikat Chakrabarti then walks Sam and Emma through the trajectory of his career in Democratic politics, beginning with Bernie in 2016 and helping to run AOC's campaign amid a push for a growing progressive movement, as he explores the mainstream Democratic Party's ongoing failure over the last decade to offer any transformative vision amid a rocketing cost of living, rampant inequality, and a growing fascist movement. After expanding on the parallels we see with the rise of fascism amid the inequality and crises of the 1930s, Chakrabarti looks to the modern day as he unpacks an ongoing push to expand the fight to unseat status-quo-oriented Democratic Leadership like Nancy Pelosi, and how we can support that effort! And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Trump and Chief Justice John Roberts shove the subtlety to the side as they celebrate their successful coup, reflect on Dan Bongino and Pete Hegseth's previous musings on the “leftist” investment firm Blackrock now that they're teaming up to take over the Panama Canal, and Josh in San Diego asks how to address the Democratic inclination to punch left. Tim Walz shows Democratic leadership how to set an agenda (and a narrative), Leftist Big Pharma Plus unpacks Trump's changes to the US healthcare apparatus and student debt, and Fox News solves the egg crisis (buy chickens, raise them at home). David from Spain on the recent evolution of fascism in the US and Spain, Ricky from San Diego on Chinese labor relations, and Mike from Colorado on messaging to mainstream Dems. The MR Crew also parses through Elisa Slotkin's telling Democratic response to Trump, lifting up noted proponents of democracy and liberalism, Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma break down the biggest headlines of the day. First, they run through updates on the free-fall of the markets amid Trump's tariffs, Trump's cut off of aid to Ukraine, Trump's joint session, state-level Democrats' defense of trans athletes, a USAID report on the child death they prevent, SCOTUS' weakening of the Clean Water Act, DOGE's attack on NOAA, Trump's assault on Social Security, and Trump's incoming attacks on DOE and US forests, also discussing the possibility of Democratic Leadership finally coming around on acting like an opposition party over the GOP's government shutdown. They also watch JD Vance give an emotionally vivid recounting of his and Trump's harrowing showdown with Zelenskyy, expand a little on Trump's upcoming joint session (NOT a State of the Union), and Israel's ongoing shutdown of aid to Gaza, before parsing through Trump's insane new crackdown on protest and free speech, heartily backed by RFK. Sam and Emma highlight the Dow Jones going into free-fall just as Trump made his tariff announcements and Trump's ongoing attack on the Social Security Administration, before shifting to the state of the Democratic Party, with leadership finally turning a corner on *not* helping Trump pass his agenda, and wrapping up with Richie Torres' insane announcement of a bipartisan Crypto Caucus And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma check in on self-proclaimed creeps Rahm Emmanuel and Bill Maher as they talk peeping on women in relation to… the Chicago Mayorship. The anti-vax community is outraged at RFK's decision to change course from not trying to prevent measles, to trying to prevent measles, and the MR Team dives deep into Sam's recent appearance on Piers Morgan with health quack Julian Michaels and Russian asset Benny Johnson, plus, your IMs!

It's Casual Friday! Emma speaks with Mike Figueredo of the Humanist Report to round up the week in news. Then, she's joined by Van Lathan of the Higher Learning podcast! First, Emma runs through updates on Trump's dropping popularity (thanks to Elon), budding GOP criticism of the Trump/Musk regime, Trump's dismantling of the FBI's Foreign Influence Task Force, Trump's funding freeze and mass firing, Elon's CPAC appearance, RFK's anti-vax maneuvers, Texas' (definitely unrelated) measles outbreak, Israel's best attempts to kill their Gaza ceasefire deal, and the confirmation of Kash Patel, also watching a flush-red MAGA district lay into Rep. Rich McCormick over Trump's insane executive coup. Mike Figueredo then joins, jumping right into his initial reactions to the Trump/Musk regime's sweeping destruction of the US government, before stepping back to expand a little on the particular insanity that is being a Democratic constituent at this point, with the overwhelming backlash to the impotence of Democratic Congresspeople finally boiling over at town halls and Democratic Leadership's media events. After expanding on the genuinely shocking rate at which Trump is executing the Project 2025 blueprint, Figueredo and Emma look to the impact of the Trump regime on emboldening cultures of bigotry in the US, from DHS' discrimination against queer folks to the suicide of a young Latina child after facing rampant anti-immigrant bigotry, before wrapping up the interview by emphasizing the need for the Democratic Party to advance an agenda of actual political change if they want to escape from the fascist quagmire of the last few election cycles. Van Lathan and Emma then dive deep into the state (surprisingly positive) of the Leftist media ecosystem, the utter failure of the Democratic Party to identify, speak to, or govern for their base, and why MAGA's obsession with liberal defectors is so enchanting to reactionary media figures. Lathan implores Emma to dip her podcasting toes into pop culture,  before wrapping up by touching on what he learned from covering Gaza. And in the Fun Half: Emma talks with Nora from Austin about Tim Pool's fiery foray into NASCAR sponsorships, before touching on Elon's CPAC meltdown and Rep. Greg Cesar's pushback to Elon's labor abuses. Kyle from Long Island unpacks RFK's lies about cell phone radiation, Leonard Peltier returns home, and conservatives help the media ponder whether a measles outbreak is actually that big of a deal, plus, your calls and IMs!

It's Hump Day! Sam speaks with Jackie Flynn Mogensen, reporter covering science and health at Mother Jones, to discuss her recent reporting on the Trump administration's actions towards the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Then, he speaks with Elie Mystal, justice correspondent at The Nation, to discuss his recent piece on the Trump administration's to dismantle DEIA efforts across the federal government. First, Sam runs through updates on the potential blockage of Trump's federal funds freeze, Trump's attempt to push out federal workers, Elon's interns' influence at the OPM, the gutting of the Equal Opportunity Commission, a trans care ban for anyone 19 and under, education funding, and Trump's grotesque immigration regime, before expanding on the enthusiasm from conservative media over Trump taking a sledgehammer to the government's ability to govern. Jackie Flynn Mogensen then joins, diving right into the devastating impact of Trump's first wave of federal funding freezes on the US public health regime, unpacking the pause on the NIH's $40B in funding to outside research – funding that spurs over a 2:1 return in economic activity – alongside the complete cut off of communications between health departments both internally and with the public. After expanding on the importance of broad-scale scientific research, Mogensen walks Sam through the drastic increase in insecurity and precarity among federal workers in these organizations, and why all of this dysfunction is ultimately the point of Trump's attacks on US public health infrastructure. Elie Mystal and Sam then unpack the utter nihilism of the Trump Administration's approach to the rule of law, particularly when bolstered by a Supreme Court intent on the destruction of the very same government. Next, Mystal walks through Trump's ongoing attack on DEI and DEIA policies, exploring their role as the white response to needing to “prove” the enforcement of the Civil Rights and Americans with Disabilities Acts, and what a world where the federal government refuses to act as an equal opportunity employer, nor defend equal opportunity employment, would look like. After touching on the Supreme Court's role in potentially bolstering Trump's executive takeover of the federal government – and why even a rebuke of Trump could spell trouble for future Democratic presidents – Elie and Sam wrap up with Democratic Leadership's failure to address any element of the material devastation Trump has already wrought on the country in less than two weeks. And in the Fun Half: Sam expands on the devastating impact of the “chaos is the point” ethos of the Trump Administration and the absurdity of blaming those materially affected over their vote, also touching on the utter failure of Democratic leadership to address this destruction, and looking at how a genuinely engaged opposition leader would respond to Trump in the form of JB Pritzker. Next, the MR Crew unpacks Rep. Rich Cormick's explanation on why taking away meals from kids is fine, actually, gets a window into the world of Harlan Crow from Redford in Dallas, and touches on the Trump Admin's decision to reverse (and maybe reverse the reversal?) of the recent OMB memo. They also dive deep into the devastating impact of Trump's first ten days on the agriculture industry, and watch RFK get grilled over his myriad dangerous hypocrisies, plus, your calls and IMs!
