Adam Mockler joins Joanna Coles on the Daily Beast Podcast to break down the chaos consuming Donald Trump's Republican Party, from Ken Paxton blaming Trump for wrecking his Senate campaign to the spectacular Jack Smith hearing blunder that left GOP senators scrambling. Mockler reveals what really happened before and after his explosive CNN clash with Scott Jennings, explains why Trump's costly war with Iran has failed to deliver a single meaningful concession, and argues that Democrats need more than an anti-Trump message to win back disillusioned voters. He and Joanna also take aim at Trump's bizarre attempt to rebrand artificial intelligence while tech titans line up behind him and stay dissect new photos of a furious Trump berating Natalie Harp. #ad For a limited time, get 60% off your first order, plus free shipping and free treats for life, when you head to https://Smalls.com/BEAST.

In this episode of The Wright Report, Bryan breaks down the terrifying near-crash of a FlyDubai flight after a copilot allegedly tried to down the plane, saved only by a wounded pilot and a passenger who happened to be a plumber, plus fresh confirmation that the thwarted UK terror plot near a US airbase has ties to Iran. Bryan covers President Trump admitting he has done a poor job selling a genuinely strong economy, with new jobs and investment numbers overshadowed by high mortgage and fuel prices, and his own theory for how Israeli leaders missed the warning signs before the October 7th attacks. Plus, Bryan covers Senate Democrats blocking a bill to restrict insider stock trading by lawmakers, former Congressman Adam Kinzinger under investigation for betting on his own Biden pardon, leaked remarks from Ken Paxton admitting the Dallas GOP convention hurt Republican poll numbers, and backlash over NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani receiving a federal security clearance.

Donald Trump has been running propaganda ads starring, well, himself as a way to help the GOP in the midterms. The ads are government-funded, and one official even suggested that the payment scheme is partly designed to get media attention to the ads, amplifying them further. It's appallingly corrupt and potentially illegal. But, amusingly, they're backfiring: A new Quinnipiac poll shows that Trump is more toxic for the GOP than we thought. It finds his approval at an abysmal 34 percent, and at 31 percent on the economy, a record low for him. Worse, Democrats now lead Republicans on the economy, international conflicts and immigration, three traditional GOP strengths, underscoring just how big a drag he's become. We talked to David Corn, author of the new book How Russia Won and a New Republic piece on Trumpian propaganda. We discuss how badly Trump is screwing the GOP, why those TV ads are destined to fail, why he'll grow more dangerous as Election Day approaches, and how to prepare for it.

In part two of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, new reseach indicates podcast listeners are not happy with AI replacements for the human host of the show. AI is continually replacing media professionals with voice matching technology, but it's still "buggy". There's still a lot of fine tuning for the end product, else people may "tune out". Also polls still favor the GOP over Democrats for voter favorability / and in general Americans want improvements to healthcare coverage and fuel prices to normalize.

As the fight for Congress grows more tense, the difference between victory for Red or Blue may hinge on the MAHA movement. Are its members satisfied with what the GOP and Donald Trump have done for them? Do they feel betrayed by everything that hasn't gone their way? RFK Jr. may still be their charismatic leader, but he's not on the ballot. Theodore Ross sits down with three great FERN reporters — Jill Filipovic, Jane Black, and Teresa Cotsirilos — to get their take on where the movement is headed and which party benefits now that food politics is driving the debate. This interview is part of FERN's special series, “MAHA and the Midterms,” in partnership with Mother Jones and Politico.

Going into midterms, GOP is talking to Norm, they are banking on you. Tighten up messaging. Never start talking about the thing you don’t want Norm thinking about walking into the voting booth. 3 things to campaign on. Democrats are insane. Affordability. Deportations. Saudi Arabia is flush with cash, and modern military equipment from us. Houthi’s blowing pipelines up, how are they able to kneecap the nation? Saudi is soft. Carlos Marcello’s home in New Orleans.

Trump took a beating from both parties for the Xi Jinping state dinner. Then Marco Rubio explained what happens if the Trump Xi meeting never takes place, and the answer should scare every American. The media banned from the dinner, the ballroom tour, and the GOP backlash got wall-to-wall coverage. The one thing that actually matters got zero. Meanwhile Bill Maher said something about Trump on Real Time that his own audience wasn't ready for, Abdul El-Sayed just made a bet that could end his Senate run before it starts, and two names surfaced behind the AI regulation push that explain why Washington suddenly wants to kill an industry. Jillian Michaels breaks it all down.IN THIS EPISODE:▶ Trump Xi Jinping Dinner: Rubio calls skipping this meeting "irresponsible." He's being polite. What he describes goes far beyond trade, and once you hear it the media circus over the ballroom looks a lot different.▶ White House Press Ban: CNN and Politico won their court case and still got stopped at the door. The same outlets screaming now stayed silent when another president tried it. Who, and when, is the part that ends the argument.▶ AI Regulation and Anthropic: Chamath Palihapitiya and Joe Lonsdale on a $10 trillion decision that picks which party runs the country for decades. Two billionaires paid for the AI panic. Wait until you hear what they actually own.▶ Bill Maher Gives Trump Credit: Maher broke from the left on live TV over crime. What he said, and what his own guest got wrong minutes later, tells you everything about where the media is headed.▶ Abdul El-Sayed vs Bill Maher: The Michigan Senate candidate wants to embarrass Maher on his own show. Jillian pulls his family's donor records and one Treasury designation that should have every Michigan voter asking questions.▶ AIPAC and Foreign Money: Jake from The Moderate Case reads James Fishback's donor list on air. Then Jillian ranks who's really buying Washington. AIPAC's spot on that list will make you rethink the entire debate.▶ Congo's Forgotten War: Millions dead and not one campus protest. A woman on the ground asks why. Jillian's answer comes from a refugee camp she slept in, and it names who's paying for the silence.

Donald Trump's ban on a range of Canadian imports just went into effect, and The New York Times calls this a sign that the trade war has grown “vicious.” In a rambling tirade this week, Trump upped the ante in a dark way, calling Canada “one of the worst countries in the entire world.” Trump also said almost in passing that we get along with China better than we get along with Canada. We think it shouldn't pass unnoticed just how casually Trump will toss aside a longtime ally. Trump also unleashed his top trade adviser to say sneeringly nasty things about Canada and Canadians, another sign that MAGA nationalism is growing more malicious. Meanwhile, Republicans tell the Los Angeles Times that the trade war is really bad news for the GOP. In one focus group, almost all swing voters in Michigan opposed it. We talked to New Republic contributing editor Virginia Heffernan, who's been writing well about the economic roots of GOP midterm woes. She explains why it's so dumb of Trump to order Americans to hate Canada—and why it's all tailor made to get MAGA-adjacent “diesel class” voters to turn on Trump.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

Paul Rieckhoff joins the MSNBC table with Nikki McCann Ramirez of Rolling Stone and former Harris senior advisor Mike Nellis to break down the political sucking chest wound of Trump's Iran war — and how it is bleeding into every corner of the 2026 midterms. From Texas, where Republicans are burning nine figures to defend a state that was never supposed to be competitive, to Nebraska, Kansas, South Dakota, and Alaska, where independent veterans are running as kryptonite to GOP incumbents, this is the clearest read yet on why Trump is now more unpopular with true independents than Nixon at the height of Watergate. Then MSNBC Pentagon reporter Priya Sridher joins with exclusive reporting on the USS Lincoln, the carrier that just broke a modern deployment record, at least eight suicide attempts in the strike group, and a 19-year-old sailor charged with malingering after jumping overboard. Paul connects the dots: an abused force, an unauthorized war, a Pentagon purging 20% of its generals and admirals, and a political class — in both parties — that still hasn't figured out how to stop any of it.

But Seth's research shows that Democrats over-correct after they lose, while Republicans under-correct, and lately some deny the loss happened at all. So does a big defeat finally break Trump's hold on the party, or do Republicans end up needing him even more?In this episode:The one time Trump's favorability with Republicans actually dropped. It wasn't January 6th or his conviction.Why the window for Republicans to criticize Trump closes soon after November 3rdA Trump endorsement was worth about 16 points in 2022 GOP primariesIs Trump a "Giffen good" for Republican politicians? Seth grades my theory live.Three reasons Republicans stay loyal: primaries, political violence, and policyThe Nikki Haley third of the party that is waiting for Trump to leave the stageCould Rubio or Vance hold together both MAGA voters and traditional Republicans?What Democrats are learning, or not learning, from 2024Why corruption could be Democrats' strongest issue once they have subpoena powerOur midterm predictions: CO-8 and MO-2Seth Masket is a political scientist at the University of Denver and the author of The Elephants in the Room and Learning from Loss.

The news of Texas covered today includes:Our Lone Star story of the day: Paxton's internal polling shows him still in the lead but it being very close. This matches other sources on internal polling that I have heard from. This is, as I've said for years, a 2- to 4-point Republican margin state. Republicans will lose however, if, and only if, they do not show up to vote in big numbers.Media is exaggerating comments by Paxton, and seemingly planted in the press by an establishment/Cornyn operative, about Trump's drag on the ticket. Things are what they are, Trump is at has lowest approval at present and the $4 plus gasoline is hurting the GOP everywhere. It's more than eating into the GOP's structural advantage in Texas.Our Lone Star story of the day is sponsored by Allied Compliance Services providing the best service in DOT, business and personal drug and alcohol testing since 1995.Comptroller Don Huffines is showing why I endorsed him for governor a few years back over Abbott. Instead of being politically reactive, as is Abbott most of the time, Huffines is proactive in moving the better government agenda.Listen on the radio, or station stream, at 5pm Central.

Sept. 30, 2026- Democrats in the state Senate are seeking to flip at least one seat from Republicans this November in a bid to expand their majority. Sarah Rogerson could make that happen. She's a Democrat running for the 44th state Senate district against longtime GOP lawmaker Jim Tedisco.

In this episode: In June 2025, just a few hours before Florida's Republican-controlled Legislature finalized a new state budget, GOP leaders in Tallahassee slipped a sentence into the spending plan authorizing state officials to acquire a piece of property in the Panhandle through a popular land-preservation program. Three months later, Gov. Ron DeSantis and the Florida Cabinet used that little line in the budget to spend $83.3 million in taxpayer money on a tiny spit of vacant land owned by a prominent real-estate developer and Republican Party donor. Here's the story of how Florida politicians pulled off a land deal that one longtime conservation leader called “a sham.” (Note: This is an update of a podcast that initially aired in November 2025. The three Cabinet members who voted to approve the $83 million land deal — Attorney General James Uthmeier, Chief Financial Officer Blaise Ingoglia, and Agriculture Commissioner Wilton Simpson — are all now running for re-election.)

Donald Trump's ban on a range of Canadian imports just went into effect, and The New York Times calls this a sign that the trade war has grown “vicious.” In a rambling tirade this week, Trump upped the ante in a dark way, calling Canada “one of the worst countries in the entire world.” Trump also said almost in passing that we get along with China better than we get along with Canada. We think it shouldn't pass unnoticed just how casually Trump will toss aside a longtime ally. Trump also unleashed his top trade adviser to say sneeringly nasty things about Canada and Canadians, another sign that MAGA nationalism is growing more malicious. Meanwhile, Republicans tell the Los Angeles Times that the trade war is really bad news for the GOP. In one focus group, almost all swing voters in Michigan opposed it. We talked to New Republic contributing editor Virginia Heffernan, who's been writing well about the economic roots of GOP midterm woes. She explains why it's so dumb of Trump to order Americans to hate Canada—and why it's all tailor made to get MAGA-adjacent “diesel class” voters to turn on Trump.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

The midterm elections are do-or-die. Will conservatives stop the radical left's socialist agenda? Annie Frey breaks down the massive stakes of the upcoming midterms. Nationally syndicated columnist Deroy Murdock sounds the alarm on the "House of Impeachment" and the terrifying prospect of radical progressives like Maxine Waters and Bernie Sanders taking over critical committees. Murdock lays out why the GOP needs a "Contract with America" to inspire voters. Later, Annie exposes Chuck Schumer's hypocritical move to tank an insider trading ban just to block a nationwide Voter ID policy. Finally, Larry Alex Taunton dismantles the left's favorite smear: calling Donald Trump a fascist. Taunton breaks down the true definitions of fascism and communism to expose the left's totalitarian playbook. Key takeaways from this hour: • House of Impeachment: Deroy Murdock on the danger of a one-seat Democrat majority. • Committee Nightmares: The reality of Bernie Sanders and Maxine Waters in charge. • Schumer's Scam: How Chuck Schumer killed an insider trading ban to stop Voter ID. • Fascism Debunked: Larry Alex Taunton destroys the left's totalitarian narratives.

The Supreme Court gives Trump more time to keep deporting immigrants to countries where they have no connections, a new poll shows struggling Kentucky voters losing enthusiasm for the GOP, Wisconsin workers take their trade fight to G20 meeting in Milwaukee.

As if things couldn't get any weirder, this week weird turned pro with Trump's insistence that he does not like being peed on by prostitutes. Then, how the former guy is holding the GOP hostage; insisting they back his big lie or he'll tell Republicans not to vote. It's a dictatorship by tantrum. Finally, Molly Jong Fast returns to Mea Culpa to discuss how Democrats MUST enforce their subpoenas or risk losing all credibility.To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policyLearn more about your ad choices.

Republicans have been in charge of Texas for 30 years.  They have increasingly refused to use their power to actually make the state, politically and policy-wise, a red state. So now voters are threatening to paint it officially blue. I'm joined by Texas Rep. Brian Harrison (R) to examine why Republicans are struggling in a state that should be one of the strongest conservative strongholds in America. Harrison argues that weak GOP leadership, failure to deliver results, runaway government spending, property taxes, corporate welfare, data-center subsidies, and literally handing power to people like James Talarico have created an opening for Democrats to gain ground. The answer, he says, isn't simply to tell voters to fear Democrats. Republicans need to demonstrate what their control of government can actually accomplish. Harrison lays out an aggressive agenda for a Texas special session — including major property-tax relief, ending corporate welfare, addressing data centers and Flock cameras, reducing government spending, cutting gas taxes, and tackling affordability. Do Republicans, including those who feign outrage over Democrats, actually want to win or not?  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
