Mea Culpa welcomes back to the show, legendary newsman David Corn, the Washington DC Bureau Chief of Mother Jones, and an on-air analyst for MSMBC. Corn and Michael Isikoff “co-authored, “Russian Roulette, The Inside Story of Putin's War on America and the Election of Donald Trump”. He's also the author of four New York Times best-selling books and was the long-time Washington editor for “The Nation”. For a good read, check out “Our Land” — his twice-weekly newsletter that covers everything from news of the day to entertainment, but all told in Corn's no bullshit style. Corn has been published multiple times, but his latest bestseller,” American Psychosis: A Historical Investigation of How the Republican Party Went Crazy” is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding our unprecedented times. He joins us today amidst unprecedented dysfunction in American government as the GOP continues for a third week without a House speaker, paralyzed by infighting between moderate and extremist factions of the GOP. On top of this, former President Trump awaits four separate criminal trials and has all but dared Judge Chuktan to jail him for violating his gag order. All the while war rages in Israel and Ukraine. It seems we are drifting without a rudder and American credibility is suffering. 

Join Jim and Greg for this special Monday 3 Martini Lunch, as they assess the state of the 2026 midterm elections, and give their currents outlooks for which party has the advantage in winning control of the Senate, the House of Representatives, and key governor's races.First, they look at the Senate. Republicans have a decent shot of holding their majority but it won't be easy. Jim and Greg point out the seat that Democrats will likely flip, the one Republicans might be able to flip, and the competitive races for several seats held by members of both parties.Next, they assess the House of Representatives. With midterm momentum seemingly with the Democrats and the GOP holding a very slim majority, the left would seem to have the advantage. But the mationwide redistricting wars seem to favor Republicans. Still, even if Republicans succeed in winning most of these newly drawn districts, keeping the majority is an uphill climb.Then, they examine several key governor's races, particularly in the traditional battleground states.Please visit our great sponsors:IncogniTake control of your digital footprint today.  Use code 3ML at the link below and get 60% off an annual plan: https://incogni.com/3MLHomeServeFor 50% less your first year, go to https://HomeServe.com/Martini to find the plan that's right for you.

Let's talk about The GOP 5 year plan for Social security….

Thune is a RINO to the bone, yet somehow he's been allowed to stay on as majority leader. The only person he fears and answers to is Chuck Schumer, the Marxist Dems and the RINOs in the GOP. Thune today showing once again he is not made to lead as Trump was rebuked. Trump is set to head to Capitol hill this week, where he will have to lobby, himself, for the Save America Act. Is that a joke!?Sponsor:My PillowWww.MyPillow.com/johnSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Tucker Carlson recently told a live audience there is “no chance” he will support the Republican Party going forward, saying a party that puts “the interests of a foreign country above those of its own citizens” no longer deserves his vote, despite the fact that he has long branded himself as a lifelong Republican voter and defender. Within a day he praised JD Vance as a “great” candidate and said he would support “the best person,” which the panel sees as a confusing pivot that leaves viewers unsure whether he is actually boycotting the GOP on principle or just repositioning himself above the party while still backing specific Republicans.

Welcome to Last Call, a look at the biggest stories Jim and Greg covered over the past week on the 3 Martini Lunch.This week they discuss Texas U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico's ridiculous comments on whiteness and masculinity, Tucker Carlson leaving the Republican Party, major wins for socialists in New York City congressional races, and a media narrative lamenting the impact of lower crime rates on local businesses.First, they react to Talarico's absurd statements in his latest podcast appearance. His streak of insane woke rhetoric continues as he says that his imagination is limited by his "whiteness and masculinity.” Jim and Greg wonder when the left's obsession with identity will end.Next, Jim and Greg react to Tucker Carlson's exit from the Republican Party. Despite speaking at the 2024 Republican National Convention, Carlson now says he regrets his support for Trump and he denounces the GOP for its "betrayal of the American people.” Jim comments on the erratic state of politics today and both wonder what Tucker's next move might be. Then, they wince as avowed Marxists win the Democratic nomination in three New York City congressional districts. They were all endorsed by socialist NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani. Is this additional proof that open socialists are taking over the Democratic Party or will their radicalism actually help Republicans in November?Finally, they laugh at the media's attempt to frame falling crime rates as a negative development. Oakland, California has seen a significant reduction in car break-ins, but some reporting has focused on the impact that fewer repairs could have on auto glass businesses. Jim and Greg discuss how the coverage unintentionally falls for one of economics' most basic fallacies. Please visit our great sponsors:AG1Visit https://DrinkAG1.com/3ML Get a FREE Morning Person Hat and a FREE AG1 Flavor Sampler in your Welcome Kit with your first AG1 subscription.Fast Growing Trees Better plants, better growing, and an extra 20% off with code MARTINI at https://FastGrowingTrees.com/Martini for a limited time; terms and conditions may apply.QuoMoney is on the line.

Mea Culpa welcomes the fantastic Elie Mystal, the Nation's Justice Correspondent and the host of its legal podcast “Contempt of Court. In addition to being a frequent guest on MSNBC, Mystal is also an Alfred Knobler Fellow at the Type Media Center. His first book is “The New York Times bestseller “Allow Me to Retort: A Black Guy's Guide to the Constitution.” Mystal is also an attorney and is considered one of the foremost experts on the Supreme Court. But he's also funny as hell and can be seen trolling the GOP daily on the platform formerly known as Twitter. He joins us today as the House of Representatives descends into chaos and the GOP searches for another sucker to take the speaker's gavel.

The Anchormen take aim at Senate Republicans for letting the Save America Act die on the vine. Is GOP leadership stalling to protect the political establishment and end MAGA? As Democratic Socialists gain ground, will Republicans just sit by and watch America vote itself into a communist future it can't escape?

Are socialists taking over the Democratic Party? New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani, a proud Democratic Socialist, won some stunning victories in Congressional primaries. His chosen candidates beat out more mainstream Democrats. Republicans have their own issues. President Trump met with several GOP senators and things got testy. His decision to target sitting Republicans in recent primaries may be backfiring because, well, those incumbents are still in office for now and have nothing to lose.Both parties face infighting and an identity crisis. What does this say about our politics?Producer: Leo DuranHost: David Greene Guests:  Mo Elleithee, executive director at Georgetown University's Institute of Politics and Public Service - @MoElleithee Sarah Isgur, senior editor at The Dispatch - @whignewtons

This time, Stephanie and the team dives into the chaos surrounding Trump's approval ratings as Americans from all walks of life rise up against his administration's blunders. They joke about Trump's contradictory claims regarding the reflecting pool's damage. The gang also tackles the absurdity of a MAGA ex-MLB player's homophobic tirade, revealing the depths of ignorance and hypocrisy in today's GOP.

Join Jim and Greg for the Friday 3 Martini Lunch as they dig into the U.S. Supreme Court once again protecting our Second Amendment, the left calling for a $25 per hour minimum wage, Democrats frustrated the World Cup has not been a disaster, and remembering respected pollster Glen Bolger.First, they applaud the Supreme Court for striking down a Hawaii law that required residents to get permission from stores and other public places before they were allowed to carry guns there. Despite the 6-3 decision, Jim expects Democrats to push very similar legislation again, only to have it smacked down at the Supreme Court again.Next, they groan as the left keeps pushing a much higher minimum wage as a solution to the rising cost of living, despite all evidence to the contrary. Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy is pushing a nationwide minimum wage of $25 per hour. Jim and Greg explain how this will only make things more expensive and result in more people losing their minimum wage jobs.Then, they're disgusted by a Politico story explaining how many Democrats were hoping the World Cup would be a logistical disaster so they could blame President Trump. So far, it's going well, and Democrats aren't very happy about it. Who thinks like this?Finally, they pay tribute to GOP pollster Glen Bolger, who passed away Thursday at the age of 63. Jim remembers Bolger as a very good pollster and an even better man.Please visit our great sponsors:AG1Visit https://DrinkAG1.com/3ML Get a FREE Morning Person Hat and a FREE AG1 Flavor Sampler in your Welcome Kit with your first AG1 subscription. IncogniTake control of your digital footprint today.  Use code 3ML at the link below and get 60% off an annual plan: https://incogni.com/3MLQuoMoney is on the line.

Let's talk about late night GOP reversal to betray voters and support Trump's failure in Iran....

Socialists dominated the Democratic primaries in New York, which is a gift to the GOP nationwide. An off-duty Tacoma police officer arrested a driver that was intoxicated and naked. // SCOTUS delivered a few big wins for conservatives on immigration and gun rights. // The National Park Service says the reflecting pool was damaged. Jason has some travel gripes from his trip to New York.

The gloves are completely off in Columbia!

The establishment is in absolute chaos, and we are blowing the lid off their entire playbook!

The Supreme Court hands the Trump administration a major immigration victory, but Mike asks what happens when cities openly refuse to follow the law. Plus, the growing backlash against Republican leaders over the SAVE Act, the Scott Pressler controversy in South Dakota, and why Mike says the biggest threat to the America First agenda may be coming from inside the GOP.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It's Zohran Mamdani's party now, and we discuss how the communists could actually win – not just in New York, but across America; President Trump goes to war with the GOP over the SAVE Act; and the Iran MOU continues to cause headaches.

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down the Democratic Party's growing identity crisis as insurgent progressives challenge establishment power and reshape the political battlefield. They analyze the stunning primary results in New York, the deepening divide between moderates and the left, and what it all means heading into the next election cycle. Kander and Gupta also dive into Trump's newest embarrassment, as the disastrous Reflecting Pool project becomes yet another symbol of dysfunction, waste, and scandal under his leadership. Plus, they discuss Tucker Carlson distancing himself from Republicans, Jared Kushner's latest money chase, and why Trump's chaos continues to consume the GOP.

Conservatives are losing the country because they are too obsessed with electing fake Republicans. They are too focused on the quantity of Republicans rather than the quality and focus on a game of inches over a game of miles. Today, I expose the massive fraud at the heart of the GOP establishment, which is even greater than Democrat ballot fraud. We are playing a "game of inches" by obsessing over slim majorities in Congress, while the uniparty plays a "game of miles," quietly transforming our red states through massive Big Tech data center land-grabs, surveillance state Flock cameras, and crushing economic policies. It's time to stop prioritizing the quantity of Republicans and start demanding quality patriots. I'm also joined by Georgia lieutenant governor nominee Greg Dolezal, a Freedom Caucus conservative who shocked political observers by winning a statewide primary campaign centered on issues the establishment GOP refuses to touch: data centers, property taxes, corporate welfare, immigration, Islam, government subsidies, privacy, and the growing disconnect between voters and political elites. Plus, I explain why President Trump's 11th-hour opposition to the housing bill proves that the grassroots can still force Washington's hand. Stop funding the political industrial complex and start setting brushfires of freedom. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Bridget sits down with conservative commentator and political pundit Kira Davis to talk about why she thinks it's time to bring back shame, decorum, and "Karens." They discuss the Major League Baseball Pride Month controversy, why California's election system is built to erode trust in democracy, why influencers don't actually affect elections, the Gavin Newsom scandal Kira believes is about to blow up, and her predictions for the GOP and Democrat 2028 fields. They cover dealing with TDS from family members, inspiring people to love America again, and why we should be renormalizing normal — saying grace in public, flying flags, calling out bad behavior — because it is the only way to actually shift the culture.Check out Kira's podcast here - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/just-kira-davis-on-the-orange-report/id1847737944#CultureWar #RenormalizeTheNormal #WalkInsWelcome #BridgetPhetasyTopics covered: renormalizing the normal, California election fraud claims, Gavin Newsom scandal, 2028 presidential predictions, family estrangement over politics, decorum and public shame, MLB Pride Month controversy, conspiracy vs. real corruption, conservative influencer wars

Trump says Iran is “being very nice” and “agreeing to everything,” but that sales pitch doesn't survive contact with the actual reporting. We sit down with Antiwar.com's Dave DeCamp to sort out what the US Iran memorandum of understanding seems to concede, why both governments are trying to frame the same document as a win, and how the memory of being bombed during earlier negotiations hangs over every new round of talks. We also dig into the most confusing public talking point: nuclear inspections. JD Vance claims Iran agreed to let IAEA inspectors back in, Trump talks like inspections last forever, and Iran pushes back hard. Dave walks through what inspectors were already doing, what access Iran has suspended since the June 2025 strikes, and why any lasting nuclear deal likely comes down to verification, uranium downblending, and whether Washington has quietly dropped some of its biggest demands. Then we widen the lens to the real spoiler: Lebanon. Rubio's line is that Israel is there because of Hezbollah, but a ceasefire without an Israeli withdrawal risks being a ceasefire in name only. We connect that to the Strait of Hormuz fight over tolls and shipping fees, the political backlash from neocons inside the GOP, and a rare congressional move a concurrent War Powers resolution that could strengthen the legal case against restarting an unauthorized Iran war. Finally, we unpack CNN's report of Iranian drone swarms described as a “jellyfish formation,” and why battlefield realities may be driving diplomacy more than anyone wants to admit.

Mea Culpa welcomes back one of our favorite people from the Lincoln Project, Tara Setmayer. She's a former CNN political commentator, a contributor to ABC News, and a former GOP Communications Director on Capitol Hill. Setmayer has appeared on ABC's The View, ABC's Good Morning America, and HBO's Real Time with Bill Maher. She was named a Harvard Institute of Politics Spring 2020 Resident Fellow. Also in 2020, she joined The Lincoln Project as a senior advisor. Setmayer hosts the live show "The Breakdown" alongside co-founder Rick Wilson, on the organization's streaming channel, LPTV. She's also a fierce critic of the ongoing MAGA agenda and what she views as the GOP's shameful inability to move beyond its toxic politics. She joins me today as we celebrate the ruling against Donald Trump by Judge Engoron.

The Mamdani sweep in NYC shows that the populist left is winning the arguments about Israel policy and on going after billionaires, but it sure seems like there may be limits to their success outside the blue urban core. And Republicans are likely to make hay with at least one of Tuesday's congressional primary winners—Darializa Avila Chevalier—who wants to end policing and won't say whether murderers should go to jail. But the GOP colossally screwed up in North Carolina and Georgia, and Tim makes a bold prediction about how the party will respond. Plus, Trump is showing clear signs of aging, another one of his candidates lost on Tuesday, AOC's silence at this moment is noteworthy, and never underestimate the power of charisma in politics.Peter Hamby joins Tim Miller.show notes Peter's podcast, "The Powers That Be" Peter's columns at Puck For a limited time, get 60% off your first order, plus free shipping, when you head to Smalls.com/THEBULWARK.

Welcome back to The Majority Report On today's program: The DSA slate wins the New York Democratic primaries in a sweep. Zohran Mamdani delivers a powerful speech at Claire Valdez's election party. A DSA chair tells Hasan Piker on his stream that his phone banking drive on behalf of Darializa Avila Chevalier yesterday identified 2,000 voters which is essentially the margin of victory. Centrist Dem consultant Neera Tanden tries to pump the brakes on the DSA's victory by saying it won't work in rural states. I guess she hasn't heard of Graham Platner. Political strategist Morris Katz, who served as Zohran Mamdani's lead media strategist for his mayoral campaign, joins us to take a victory lap after the huge DSA win last night. We end the free half by taking a look at some of the best centrist Dem meltdowns over the primaries. In the Fun Half: We take a look at a few GOP meltdowns over the NY primaries. The featured ghouls include Stephen Miller, Sean Hannity, David Frum and more. Ta-Nehisi Coates on The Bulwark podcast with Tim Miller reflects on his decision to advocate for Kamala Harris in the 2024 election. Dan Goldman is asked why he thinks he lost to Brad Lander and he responds with "Trump is bad" nonsense. Dave Rubin is offended that his favorite actor John C. Reilly believes that empathy is a superpower. All that and more.

We expect Democrats to vote against the SAVE Act but why do we have GOP members of congress who are against it too? A judge just blocked the Trump admins efforts to get the voter rolls. The most important institution communists conquered. This judge situation wont last forever.

It was an interesting night to say the least for the Marxist wing of the dem party. Socialist NYC Mayor Mamdani has showed he is the new face of the party. The old dem party of Bill Clinton is long gone. Is this a win for the GOP or will the Marxist's be able to draft the old school democrats? This could be a blessing in disguise or a massive issue on the horizon!

The state's Democratic primary nominates three more socialist House candidates, including Darializa Avila Chevalier, who says every deportation is wrong, calls proudly to abolish ICE, and wants to pass national rent control. How will mainstream Democrats respond, and could this hard left turn help the GOP win the midterms? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit www.politix.fmDonald Trump, in his haste and corruption, has wrecked the historic reflecting pool that spans the Washington Monument and Lincoln Memorial.In this episode, Matt and Brian discuss:* How this lazy and corrupt endeavor went to shit so quickly;* Why it serves as a useful metaphor for Trump's Iran war, and just about every initiative he's undertaken autocratically;* Whether this should also be a cautionary tale for Abundists, who often see the appeal of sweeping aside red tape and process to Get Things Done Fast.Then, Brian briefly ventures into amateur architecture and engineering with some proposals for fixing the reflecting pool for all time. (Surely no one's thought of THIS before!) But we mostly assess the damage done by Jewish-American Iran hawks, via their effort to make Israel an appendage of the GOP (currently controlled by a corrupt con artist) and steer the U.S. into a losing war. Will they ever reflect on the harm they've caused? Is schadenfreude the order of the day? Or is that just whistling past the graveyard? And are there lessons here for leftists who are now tempted to make common cause with Trump against Israel?Answers are available in full 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 on the self-righteous, right-wing American Jews who were being cavalier with Jewish lives all along. * Matt on how Trump's (autocratic) war on state capacity is coming home to roost.* Brian again, on how Trump switching sides in the war he lost doesn't make him a Palestinian liberationist. * Matt, again, on how Trump's “reflecting pool” foreign policy is “violent and cynical and bad.”

America is watching Black political power come under attack in real time—but this story didn't start with today's headlines. In this urgent conversation, Amanda sits down with Tennessee Representative Justin J. Pearson to unpack the centuries-old playbook of minority rule: how powerful elites divide us, redraw the maps, and rig the system to hold onto power. Amanda traces the hidden history—from Reconstruction to today's gerrymandering battles—to reveal why Black political power has long been the greatest threat to oligarchy. Then, Representative Justin J. Pearson shares what he's witnessing on the ground in Tennessee, where attacks on Black representation are reshaping democracy in real time. We explore how communities can organize, build power, and fight back—and why hope remains a discipline, even now. - Why attacks on Black political power are really about protecting elite minority rule- How racialized redistricting is reshaping the South and the upcoming midterms  - Why the Voting Rights Act became a target—and what's at stake now - Why multiracial coalitions have always terrified those in power- What Rep. Pearson says ordinary people can do right now to fight back To support Representative Pearson, go to: https://www.votejustinj.com/ About Rep. Pearson:  Representative Justin J. Pearson is a Tennessee state legislator, community organizer, environmental justice advocate, and candidate for Tennessee's 9th Congressional District. A lifelong Memphian, Pearson first gained prominence organizing grassroots campaigns that took on some of the most powerful corporate interests in the country. He helped lead the successful fight to stop the Byhalia Pipeline, protecting the drinking water of more than a million residents, and has organized campaigns to challenge environmental pollution, corporate exploitation, and policies that harm working families. His advocacy has included efforts to stop unfair utility contracts, hold polluters accountable, and push for stronger protections for Memphis's air, water, and soil. In 2023, Pearson became a national voice for democracy and gun safety as one of the "Tennessee Three," after being expelled from the Tennessee House by the GOP supermajority for participating in a protest calling for action following the Covenant School shooting. He was later reinstated and returned to office, Today, Pearson continues to advocate for voting rights, environmental justice, economic fairness, and democratic participation. He is currently running for Congress in Tennessee's 9th District, where he has been a leading voice against racial gerrymandering and efforts to dilute Black political power.
