August 31, 2025; 7am: All eyes are on Chicago after President Trump's continued threats to deploy the National Guard to the Windy City. On Saturday, Chicago's Mayor Brandon Johnson signed an executive order demanding that Trump stand down. In response, President Trump continued his threats, warning Illinois Governor JB Pritzker to “straighten out” Chicago quickly or the city will be subjected to federal law enforcement takeover. The President has echoed these threats to several Democrat-led cities, and elected officials are issuing a warning: military troops who carry out Trump's orders might be at risk for prosecution. Philadelphia's District Attorney, Larry Krasner, joins “The Weekend” to discuss. For more, follow us on social media:Bluesky: @theweekendmsnbc.bsky.socialInstagram: @theweekendmsnbcTikTok: @theweekendmsnbcTo listen to this show and other MSNBC podcasts without ads, sign up for MSNBC Premium on Apple Podcasts.

With the Republican Party simply being a vessel for Trump and his authoritarian inclinations, it's more important now than ever that the Democratic Party rise up and defend our democracy. But whether its national leadership is unwilling, or simply unable, to do so, they are largely not meeting this moment; the chaos unfolding at the CDC is a flashing red warning about the politicization of public health in America. But there is a critical lesson we can learn from recent history; and as the war in Gaza reaches day 694, Israel has now begun the initial stages of its operation to take control of Gaza City and more than 500,000 Palestinians are experiencing famine.

August 30, 2025; 7am: CDC Director Susan Monarez was fired after refusing to resign.  Her attorneys said the firing came after she refused to rubber-stamp unscientific, reckless directives in line with HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. In response, top officials at the agency quit, and hundreds of staffers staged a clap out in support. Plus, Federal Reserve Board Governor Lisa Cook has sued the Trump administration over their attempt to oust her. In an emergency hearing, the judge expressed concern over Trump's comments about securing a majority on the board. Neera Tanden and George Conway join “The Weekend” to discuss how this could impact everything from your finances to your physical health.For more, follow us on social media:Bluesky: @theweekendmsnbc.bsky.socialInstagram: @theweekendmsnbcTikTok: @theweekendmsnbcTo listen to this show and other MSNBC podcasts without ads, sign up for MSNBC Premium on Apple Podcasts.

The Democratic National Committee just wrapped up its meeting in Minneapolis, and one of the big ideas floated behind closed doors was a midterm convention. The logic is clear. Democrats are dealing with a brand problem. They want to reset, energize, and show that the party still has fresh faces and energy. That means television time. That means spectacle. So: midterm convention. And I'm all for it. I would love to cover one. I love conventions. Give me a big show with music, lights, messaging — I'm there.I don't know if Trump caught wind of this plan early or just read it when the story dropped, but it's clear what happened next. He jumped on Truth Social and declared that the Republican Party would also hold a midterm convention. Because if the Democrats are getting a big TV moment, then he's going to get one too — and he's going to make it better. That's how Trump operates. If you're doing a spectacle, he's doing a bigger one. The man knows television, and conventions are made-for-TV moments. So now we might have two of them.What would those look like? For the Democrats, expect the same tightly-scripted, ultra-managed production they've always delivered. Nobody does a convention script like the Democratic Party. For all their other dysfunctions, they know how to build a prime-time political package. The Republicans? Expect a Trump rally — but bigger, glossier, and even more overloaded with segments, guests, and applause lines. Multiple nights, probably. A celebration of Trumpism that looks less like a traditional political event and more like an awards show.The Path to a Shutdown is ClearMeanwhile, Axios also reported that Democratic leaders in Congress have landed on their key demand to avoid a government shutdown: the reversal of Medicaid cuts in the One Big Beautiful Bill. And this is where things get interesting. Because while I'm not here to defend either side — I come from media, not partisanship — I can tell you that this is exactly the kind of story that drives conservatives crazy. This is what fuels the belief that the media covers these fights with blinders on. Because here's the reality: Democrats want to shut down the government. They are choosing this. They want a shutdown — not because they think it will solve something, but because they think it's a strong midterm frame.That frame is Medicaid cuts. Specifically, Medicaid cuts for rural hospitals. That's the message. Not the whole bill, not the fiscal fight — just the healthcare piece. That's the issue they believe will mobilize their base and let them go on offense. So everything that happens next, from press statements to floor speeches, is about setting up that narrative. The Republicans will try to pass a continuing resolution. Democrats will have to decide: do they agree, or do they shut it down?I don't think Schumer or Jeffries can survive politically if they don't let their caucus go through with this. That's the point we've reached. The shutdown is happening, and this is why. The date to watch is September 30 — that's when the funding runs out. And unless a miracle happens, we're going to see this showdown play out just like they've mapped it. And the messaging is already here. Elizabeth Warren said, “If Republicans want Democrats to provide votes to fund the Trump administration, they can start by restoring the health care they ripped away to finance more tax handouts for billionaires.” That's the line. That's the campaign.It's already baked in. Democrats sent a letter to Speaker Johnson and Senator Thune saying this has to be bipartisan — while knowing full well that their demands are nonstarters. It's the same dynamic we've seen from Republicans in the past: throw out a demand that won't be met, use the denial to justify the shutdown. The only difference is that Democrats usually don't do this. But this isn't the same Democratic Party as it used to be, now is it?Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:06:42 - Midterm Conventions00:09:35 - Dems Shutdown Plan00:15:34 - Update and Minneapolis Shooting00:18:28 - Epstein00:22:56 - CDC00:24:33 - Mark Teixeira00:27:01 - Interview with Howard Mortman01:04:10- Wrap-up This is a public episode.

They consider why groups that Democrats once counted on—from young people to communities of color—are shifting rightward, and what new strategies politicians from Gavin Newsom to Zohran Mamdani are testing to prove that the Democratic Party stands for more than opposition to Trump.This week's reading “The Trump Administration's Efforts to Reshape America's Past,” by Jill Lepore “How Former Biden Officials Defend Their Gaza Policy,” by Isaac Chotiner “The Endless August Recess,” by Antonia Hitchens “The Enormous Stakes of Trump's Effort to Fire the Fed Governor Lisa Cook,” by John Cassidy “What's Life Like in Washington, D.C., During Trump's Takeover?,” by Margaret Talbot Tune in to The Political Scene wherever you get your podcasts.

This segment breaks down the political and media reaction to a recent school shooting in Minneapolis, arguing that it follows a predictable pattern of deflection and propaganda. The host claims that both the Minneapolis Police Chief and Mayor, who are identified as Democrats, immediately tried to steer the conversation away from the shooter's motives and towards an attack on "transphobia" and the idea of "thoughts and prayers." The hosts draw a parallel to the Nashville school shooting, asserting that the Minneapolis shooter, who used "woke" talking points and called himself "the woker," was a "copycat" inspired by the previous incident. They criticize the Democratic Party for allegedly turning the Nashville shooter into a "folk hero" by celebrating a "Transgender Day of Visibility" and failing to condemn violence. This, they argue, sends a clear message that violence is acceptable and even celebrated. The discussion also tackles the coordinated use of the phrase "thoughts and prayers are not enough" by figures like Jen Psaki and others in the media. The hosts interpret this as a thinly veiled attempt to push for gun confiscation, a goal they claim Democrats are now hesitant to openly state due to the increasing number of gun owners within their own voter base. The segment ends with a warning about a potential future without the right to bear arms, likening it to a "Venezuela-like" state where only criminals and the government are armed.

This segment explores the recent Minneapolis Catholic school shooting, characterizing it as a "copycat" crime and linking it to a broader, underreported pattern of violence carried out by individuals who identify as transgender or non-binary. The hosts argue that the shooter's manifesto, which reportedly included "woke" talking points and admiration for other killers, reflects a dangerous ideology promoted by the Democratic Party. They accuse the media and Democrats of deliberately avoiding the "transgender angle" in these cases, pointing to instances like the Nashville school shooting where, according to the hosts, the White House and activists celebrated the shooter as a "hero." A key focus of the discussion is the demand for a toxicology report on the shooter. The hosts claim this information is being withheld because it would prove a link between cross-sex hormones and psychosis, a connection they believe is a major contributing factor to the violence. The segment concludes by presenting a list of recent violent acts allegedly committed by transgender individuals, asserting that this is not a coincidence but a growing "epidemic" that the left is enabling.

This segment delves into what the host describes as a "dual justice" system in the U.S., where political affiliation, rather than guilt, determines legal outcomes. Citing the case of an individual who threw a hoagie at a federal agent and the acquittal of Michael Sussman—a lawyer for the Clinton campaign accused of lying to the FBI—the host argues that Democrats are not being held accountable for their actions, even when caught on video. This, they claim, is a mindset similar to Marxism and a direct threat to the principle of "equal justice under law." The host then shifts to corporate and political deception, focusing on a claimed "war over the vaccine." They report on the chaotic situation with the CDC director, who they say was fired but refuses to resign, alleging that she and other officials are protecting the interests of "big pharma." This is tied to a move by a political figure to end the "emergency use authorization" for certain vaccines, which would force pharmaceutical companies to conduct full, transparent trials. The host contends these companies fear the results of such trials, which they believe would expose harmful side effects and a lack of efficacy. The segment concludes with a discussion of Chinese student visas, framing it as a national security issue. The host claims that the number of visas for Chinese students has been drastically increased, a decision they argue is a form of "losing" to China. They allege that these students are agents of industrial espionage, here to steal taxpayer-funded research. This is connected to a long-standing political deal where student visas are used to bring in people who are likely to vote for the Democratic Party, further tilting the political landscape.

The segment concludes by presenting a list of recent violent acts allegedly committed by transgender individuals, asserting that this is not a coincidence but a growing "epidemic" that the left is enabling.

This segment delves into the recent Minneapolis Catholic school shooting, framing it as part of a disturbing and unacknowledged trend of violence perpetrated by individuals who identify as transgender or non-binary. The hosts argue that this pattern is being deliberately ignored by the mainstream media and the Democratic Party. The hosts draw a direct connection to the Nashville school shooting, claiming the latest incident is a "knockoff" crime inspired by the previous one. They demand the release of toxicology reports for the shooters, arguing that this information is being withheld because it would reveal a link between cross-sex hormones and psychosis—a connection they claim is even admitted by Google's own search results. Furthermore, the hosts accuse the Democratic Party of creating an environment that encourages this violence. They point to the "Transgender Day of Visibility" being declared by the White House shortly after the Nashville shooting and alleged pro-transgender activist protests as evidence that the party is "cheering on" these acts. This, they claim, makes the murderers into "folk heroes" and is the true cause of these tragedies, not guns. The segment challenges the audience to look past the official narrative and demand accountability from those they believe are enabling the violence.

This segment weaves together a series of controversial topics, arguing that recent events are part of a larger, coordinated political and cultural battle. The hosts first explore a perceived pattern of violence linked to transgender and gender non-conforming individuals, suggesting that mainstream media and law enforcement are actively concealing evidence to protect the Democratic Party. They specifically highlight the withholding of toxicology reports and manifestos, arguing that these documents would reveal a connection between cross-sex hormones and psychosis, a claim they base on a Google search and a translated Russian text. The conversation then pivots to the political use of tragedy, accusing Democratic politicians and media figures of using synchronized, pre-written talking points—specifically the phrase "thoughts and prayers are not enough"—to immediately push for gun control. The hosts connect this alleged coordination to a modern-day "Operation Mockingbird," a conspiracy theory that the CIA manipulates the media. This is framed as a long-term strategy to disarm the public, which the hosts warn could lead to a future like Venezuela, where only criminals and the government have guns. Finally, the hosts discuss broader cultural and economic issues, including President Donald Trump's handling of Chinese student visas and trade, and what they see as recent victories in the "culture war," citing a positive financial outcome for the American Eagle brand after a controversial ad. The segment concludes with a critique of the Democratic Party and the celebration of what they view as significant cultural and economic wins against the left.

The speed at which a fascist government can disrupt, dismantle, and destroy on its way to building a full-blown fascist society is breathtaking. Resistance is scattered, and anyone looking to the Democratic Party to offer guidance or leadership should remember that we came to this point on bipartisan rails, that is, the ruling class and the political establishment has agreed for decades on every major issue: unqualified support for Israel's murderous and illegal actions; the militarization of domestic police forces and policing as the ready-answer to every social problems; mass incarceration as a defining feature of society; the frantic privatization of public goods and services. And underlying it all, the tenacious and deadly legacy of the culture and structures of white supremacy. We're joined in conversation with the activist, organizer, and writer Emile Suotonye DeWeaver, author most recently of Ghost in the Criminal Justice Machine: Reform, White Supremacy, and an Abolitionist Future.

Only one Democrat in the State House voted with Republicans, and it was none other than Detroit's Karen Whitsett. She's running for a Detroit City Council seat, but she's facing a young and energetic Democratic Socialist in Denzel McCampbell. That race is happening this November. 17:24-36:57: Whitmer Special Election Folly Michigan Democratic Governor Gretchen Whitmer continues to delay calling a special election for a state Senate seat that was last held by a Democrat. And by delaying this election, Whitmer is costing Democrats more than possibly losing the seat. Pat wishes Gov. Whitmer could be as bold and inspirational as other Democratic governors, like Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker. We applaud MI Democratic State Rep. Laurie Pohutsky for trying to limit The Trump Regime's authoritarianism. And the Democratic National Committee remains miles apart from Democratic & Independent voters on Gaza. 36:58-41:37: Bought & Paid For Influencers A recent story by Taylor Lorenz in Wired details how a dark money Democratic group is paying liberal podcasters and influencers to push the Democratic Party line. Pat promises you that he'll never make such a move, and explains why. 41:38-43:36: Football/Ending Please, subscribe to the podcast, download each episode, and give it a good review if you can! leftoflansing@gmail.com Left of Lansing is now on YouTube as well! leftoflansing.com NOTES: "Michigan residents show support for Gaza aid, according to recent poll."

In addition, you may have noticed that Disney and the Democratic Party have experienced disastrous declines in recent years. And they say they want that to change. But how can they when it was caused by their expressed hatred of white people and young men in particular? Can they get over their toxic racism? Can they even admit to their toxic racism?If you are interested in attending our upcoming performance of OCTOBER 7 at Bowdoin College in Maine, please keep an eye out for registration.It will be on Sept. 18, at 7:30 p.m.And did you know that you don't have to wait a week to get the scoop?

It's not the first time Donald Trump has overreached, but his latest assertion is that he has the right to do whatever he wants. Trump wants total control - of universities, the police and anyone he perceives to be a threat. He's 'fired' Lisa Cook, the first Black woman to serve on the Federal Reserve's Board of Governors. The FBI have raided John Bolton's home. Are there any signs anywhere of any checks on Trump? Or is America sliding towards a dictatorship? Later, we're joined by Patrick Gaspard - Obama's 2008 national political director. He's the informal advisor to Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Party's nominee for New York mayor.

A lot has happened so far since President Donald Trump took office for a second term, but one thing is certain- he's indisputably unpopular. According to Gallup, Trump's six-month approval rating was around 37-percent, which is lower than that of any other president at that point in their presidency. That's, of course, with the exception of Trump in his first term. But polling can be confusing. Because while Trump's approval ratings have taken a dive, so has the Democratic Party's favorability. According to The Wall Street Journal, 63-percent of voters have a negative view of the Democratic Party. So where does that leave us? Can we trust the polls to tell us how Americans really feel? To find out more, we spoke with Crooked's resident polling expert, Dan Pfeiffer.And in headlines: President Trump hosts South Korean President Lee Jae Myung at the White House, Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says a strike on a hospital in Gaza was a "tragic mishap", and Trump signs an executive order to crack down on anyone who burns or desecrates the American flag.Show Notes:Subscribe to Crooked's substack –crookedmedia.substack.com/s/exclusive-contentCall Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe 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

Her front door was never locked, and kids from the neighborhood were always welcome to grab a snack, stay for dinner, or spend the night. Her mother worked full time, raised four kids and cared for her grandmother, who moved in when she was stricken with multiple sclerosis. The definition of hard work and selfless service, Mallory's mom still found time to bring the community together for an annual town-wide yard sale and take Mallory and her siblings to volunteer at the local soup kitchen. Following in her mother's footsteps, at 12 years old, Mallory got her first job serving coffee at BINGO night at the local volunteer firehouse. By 16, she was a manager at a local family-run grocery store. She worked as a bartender and in various jobs on campus as she earned her degree from the University of Notre Dame, where she was nicknamed “car girl” by her classmates and in her senior year won an international car design competition. But when she graduated in the middle of the Great Recession of 2008 with no healthcare, no job prospects, and student loans coming due, Mallory went from designing cars to spending a few nights sleeping in the backseat of one as she tried to land on her feet. Refusing to give up, Mallory became an industrial designer, creative director, and small business owner, working on concepts for everything from cars to Hot Wheels to documentary films to commercials, live events, and branding for local businesses. She never planned to enter the political arena, but fed up after the 2016 election – and driven by a belief that politics should be about service, not self-interest – she googled, “how to run for office.” Through sheer determination, she inspired hundreds of local volunteers to help her swing a Republican-held state Senate seat by 20 points, flipping a district that included Mitt Romney's home town. When a right-wing state senator baselessly referred to Mallory as a “groomer” in a fundraising email, she took to the floor of the Michigan state Senate and, in a now-viral speech, she memorably declared that, “we will not let hate win.” The speech showcased her courage and moral clarity, leading James Carville to say “I'd show this tape as an instructional video,” and the New York Times to label her “one of the Democratic Party's most promising young talents.”   She used her newfound platform to help flip control of the Michigan Senate for the first time in 40 years, then she got to work: strengthening unions and raising wages, getting rid of the retirement tax on seniors, expanding civil rights, repealing the state's 1931 abortion ban, banning child marriage, tackling gun violence, expanding affordable housing, feeding kids in schools, and so much more. Mallory will bring that same determination to deliver for Michigan families to the U.S. Senate. She and her husband Ray were married in Detroit's Eastern Market. Along with their young daughter and rescue dog, they're proud to call Royal Oak home.

Smalls explains how he and the one Arab member of the flotilla were treated differently from his fellow crew members, how he was assaulted & strip searched, and how he was abandoned by the US embassy (in contrast to how other governments supported their nationals). Moreover, he dives deep into his betrayal by labor leadership and leftists leaders like Bernie Sanders and AOC who remain silent on Small's capture and assault to date. Chris reveals plans to develop a new labor party that cannot be ignored by Dem-captured labor leadership, the need to leave the Democratic Party "plantation," and why he won't be supporting an AOC 2028 run.  Subscribe to Bad Faith on YouTube for video of this episode.

California Governor Gavin Newsom is breaking through like no other Democrat. This is partly because he's forging ahead with a state gerrymander to add five Democratic House seats, countering President Trump's rigging of Texas. But we think there are deeper reasons Newsom is cutting through the noise. These were on display when Newsom recently issued a stark warning about Trump's long term intentions. Newsom connected numerous dots to offer a takedown of Trump that laid bare the full scope of his ongoing authoritarian takeover in a way other Democrats rarely do. We talked to Will Stancil, a policy researcher and attorney who has developed an interesting analysis of the Democratic Party on social media. We discussed what makes Newsom's approach different, how he's attempting to solve the party's struggles in the information wars, and why it offers the beginnings of an approach for the party to adopt amid Trump's imposition of authoritarian rule.

Tom Nichols, staff writer at The Atlantic and an author of the Atlantic Daily newsletter, talks about national politics, including Democratic messaging strategies, like California Gov. Newsom's efforts to 'troll' Trump on social media.

Contrary to what happens in many other parts of the world and within Trump's GOP, the Democratic Party leadership shuns street protests. In fact, discouraging street politics is part of the it's strategy of punching left. In the latest G&R, we talk about street protests, the corporate Democrats and how political parties and figures have used protest to their advantage in other parts of the world. -----------------------------Outro- "Street Fighting Man" by Carla Olson

This week on the Mark Levin Show, President Donald Trump calls into the show and discusses transforming the U.S. from a dead country under President Biden to the hottest nation globally, as affirmed by world leaders. Trump describes handling the Russia-Ukraine conflict through instinct rather than rigid processes, emphasizing his success in securing hostage releases without concessions. He praises PM Benjamin Netanyahu as a war hero amid legal challenges and recounts authorizing a precise military strike on Iran's nuclear facility, which pilots had prepared for over 22 years, preventing imminent nuclear weapon development. Later, between 2020 and 2024, the Democratic Party saw a significant drop in voter registration across all 30 states that monitor party affiliation, losing 2.1 million voters while Republicans gained 2.4 million. This change, amounting to a total swing of 4.5 million voters, took place in battleground states as well as in traditionally blue and red states. John Bolton may be in serious trouble. Why would the timing of this raid on Bolton's house be chilling? Suddenly Democrats are special pleaders for Bolton and now we have to hear from the conspiracy theorists. The question isn't why the Trump administration is looking into Bolton or the timing of it; the question is why did the Biden administration shut down any investigation into him without explanation?
