The State of Texas' new abortion law, SB8, is worst attack on reproductive rights in 50 years. Yet it was hardly a surprise. State Legislatures gerrymandered into GOP super majorities are hell bent on transforming American society into something out of the Handmaid's Tale and with the death of Ruth Bader Ginsberg, the new Trump court is going to help them get there. The question remains: how will we fight back? Maria Cardona joins Michael to discuss all this and more on Mea Culpa.

Is Donald Trump dying, or just decomposing in real time? He's slurring words, disappearing for days, and bragging that he "aced" an IQ test that was actually a dementia screening. Florida Man may be wilding out destroying our White House, but his VP seems to be circling.  It looks like JD Vance is wasting no time trying to lock down the Christian nationalist vote by publicly humiliating his Hindu wife Usha and cuddling up to Charlie Kirk's leather-clad widow. He's moving fast, which means he probably knows Trump's losing it even more than usual. Meanwhile, the Epstein cover-up continues with Vance's help, and Trump's cutting troops in Eastern Europe just as Putin ramps up his aggression across Europe.  Here to tell us how to win the global war against fascism is Zarina Zabrisky, a Ukrainian-American investigative journalist sanctioned by Russia, and director of the new chilling film Kherson: Human Safari.  It's Election Day in America.

Depends on who you ask. We're loaded up today with analysis on elections that went overwhelmingly Democrat last night. A new brand of radical will now govern New York. Will the economy turnaround before next year and help the GOP? Is this a warning of things to come or simply deep blue states. Senator James Lankford of Oklahoma joins us to explain why he believes the filibuster should stay in tact in the Senate despite President Trump's request. Will the shutdown end this week? He seems to think so. And SCOTUS takes on Trump tariffs beginning today and he weights in as well. Sean Spicer on why guys like Chuck Schumer are still afraid to embrace Mandami in New York. And Congressman Wesley Hunt of Texas on why he's challenging Republican John Cornyn for the Senate seat in Texas Cornyn has held for a very long time. -For more info visit the official website: https://chrisstigall.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisstigallshow/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ChrisStigallFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/chris.stigall/Listen on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/StigallPodListen on Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/StigallShowSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Arch-war criminal and former Vice-President Dick Cheney has died. A consummate DC insider who was White House Chief-of-Staff, Defense Secretary, CEO of Halliburton, and Vice President, he shaped and reshaped the GOP and the conservative movement. Responsible for the Global War on Terror and the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, he promoted the invasion of Iraq based on blatant lies. Brown University estimated over 4.5 million people died in the post-9/11 forever wars. He also changed government policy on "enhanced interrogation" (i.e. torture) and mass surveillance. And despite his redemption by liberals in recent years because of his opposition to Donald Trump, his politics and polities paved the way for Trump. In this episode, we discuss Dick Cheney, Trump and fanboy liberals redeeming Cheney. Today, we don't mourn Dick Cheney, only his victims. ----------------------------

Democrats clean sweep elections across the country including Socialist Zohran Mamdani winning the Mayoral Race in New York City. Reports show the Democrats were told to remain firm to keep the government shut down until after Election Day. Exit polls show young women and men are moving back to the Democrat Party.

Brett Cooper pretends she doesn't understand why people are calling Nick Fuentes a Nazi. Proposition 50 passes in California allowing gerrymandering for Democrats. Is the lack of Trump's name on the ballot hurting the GOP's chances? Jay Jones gets elected as Virginia's Attorney General even after his violent texting scandal. President Trump threatens getting rid of the Senate filibuster. Pete Buttigieg's DOT spent $80 BILLION on DEI grants and delayed air traffic control upgrades.

An essential part of our children's education is learning proper moral behavior. And who better to deliver that ethical guidance than politicians?Huh? Bizarre, yet this is the conclusion of the GOP's theocratic Christian Nationalist faction. They are demanding that legislatures across the country must intervene in local educational policy to require that all public schools plaster every classroom with Christianity's Ten Commandments. It's in-your-face religiosity, forcing one religious dogma on students of every faith. It's also ludicrously hypocritical – after all, legislators are notorious for committing adultery, stealing from the poor, killing in the name of the state, bearing false witness against immigrants, bowing down to false gods… and otherwise mocking the Christian religion's own commandments. Who do these nationalists and their politicians think they're fooling?Certainly not America's free-thinking students. If you wonder whether young people will just go along, take heart in the uplifting thoughts of Arjun Sharda, a high-school freshman in Round Rock, Texas. In a recent op-ed piece, he went right at the humbuggery of the state's Republican leaders: “The same lawmakers who preach about freedom and limited government,” he wrote, “are now legislating what we must hang on our classroom walls... But faith loses its power when it's forced. True belief comes from conviction, not compulsion… Texas prides itself in independence, yet this law enforces conformity.”The Christian Nationalist autocrats are not only trying to turn public classrooms into their exclusive pulpits, but to establish their repressive theology as America's official religion. As Sharda warns, “Texas should stop confusing religion with righteousness – before the wall between church and state becomes just another thing we've torn down.”Do something!To work on the fight to keep church and state actually separate, check out the Freedom from Religion Foundation at ffrf.org.Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

A fast-burning episode that dissects the shockwaves from Zohran Mamdani's rise: what a democratic-socialist mayor in New York means for the national Democratic coalition, for wealthy residents and businesses, and for how Republicans sell their message when Trump isn't on the ballot. Expect sharp takes on elite reactions (including Bill Maher), polling that warns of a potential exodus, and a look at whether New York's shift will be a one-off or the start of a wider movement. ([The Guardian][1]) One city's swing can redraw the national story — are you ready for the fallout? politics, NYC mayor, Zohran Mamdani, democratic socialism, Bill Maher, voter migration, polling, GOP strategy, midterms, election analysis Hosts unpack conservative alarm and liberal division following Mamdani's victory, including high-profile criticisms and warnings from media figures. They examine polls suggesting up to ~9% of New Yorkers say they'd definitely leave under a socialist mayor — and what that could mean for the city's tax base and economy. ([New York Post][2]) Next, the conversation explores whether Mamdani's win is a unique New York phenomenon tied to local demographics and activism, or the opening salvo of a national DSA-style playbook — and how Republicans might exploit it as a national campaign message. The hosts also debate whether youthful flirtation with socialism can coexist with pro-Trump youth trends, and what organizing or messaging is needed to compete where Trump isn't on the ballot. ([The Guardian][1]) Finally, the episode closes with concrete listener prompts: would you leave your city over politics? What policies truly threaten the local economy — and which headlines are hype? The hosts promise a follow-up episode digging into exit polls and demographic internals to see who moved the needle. ([The Guardian][1]) [1]: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/nov/04/zohran-mamdani-mayor-new-york-city?utm_source=chatgpt.com "Zohran Mamdani elected mayor of New York on winning night for Democrats" [2]: https://nypost.com/2025/11/03/us-news/nearly-a-million-new-yorkers-ready-to-flee-nyc-if-mamdani-becomes-mayor-poll/?utm_source=chatgpt.com "Nearly a million New Yorkers ready to flee NYC if Mamdani becomes mayor - possibly igniting largest exodus in history: poll"

Tara and Lee deliver a fiery breakdown of what they call “conquered territory” — New York's transformation into what they describe as *post-American soil* under socialist influence. They unpack Zohran Mamdani's stunning victory, Bill Maher's warning to Democrats, and the deepening divide within the party as key figures like Chuck Schumer and Barack Obama tread lightly around the new socialist wing. The hosts explore how Trump's absence from the ballot reveals an alarming GOP enthusiasm gap, and what that means heading into the midterms. From voter demographics to economic fallout and ideological clashes, this episode charts a new phase of political realignment in America's biggest city. When America's cities fall to socialism, what happens to the rest of the map? Zohran Mamdani, New York politics, socialism, post-American territory, Bill Maher, GOP turnout, voter trends, Trump effect, Democrat strategy, political analysis, election fallout, national divide, political polarization, American future In one of the most charged episodes yet, Tara and Lee call New York “conquered territory” — a city lost to socialism after Zohran Mamdani's unapologetic victory speech quoting Eugene Debs. They discuss the ripple effects of this ideological shift: Bill Maher's stark warning to Democrats, economic fears of mass flight from the city, and polls suggesting residents are preparing to leave. The conversation expands to national implications — Virginia, New Jersey, and beyond — where GOP expectations were crushed despite economic frustration. Tara highlights how Republican turnout collapses when Trump isn't on the ballot, while Democrats remain energized by identity and ideology. The hosts also warn of a deeper cultural shift: young Americans torn between supporting Trump and flirting with socialism, creating a volatile new voter landscape. Ultimately, the episode closes with a sobering question — once a state or city becomes “post-American,” can it ever be won back?

Tara and Lee dive deep into the aftermath of shocking election results — where openly radical candidates are winning big and Republicans seem unable to counterpunch without Trump on the ballot. From a state attorney general race marred by violent rhetoric to massive Democrat wins in Virginia and New Jersey, they break down how the gender gap, Hispanic vote, and weak GOP messaging are reshaping the political battlefield. The conversation exposes the growing divide between capitalism and socialism, and why Republicans must evolve — fast — to compete in a post-Trump political world. The Left's going radical. The Right's going quiet. What happens next could decide 2026. election analysis, socialism, Republican strategy, Trump influence, Democrat victories, Virginia election, New Jersey politics, gender gap, Hispanic vote, capitalism vs socialism, political messaging, turnout, economy, inflation, GOP leadership Tara and Lee open with disbelief at a Democrat candidate's victory despite past comments condoning political violence — a moment they call “disqualifying by any sane standard.” From there, they unpack how Virginia and New Jersey delivered sweeping Democrat wins, revealing alarming trends for the GOP. Women, young voters, and Hispanics all swung hard left, defying expectations and signaling that Republican turnout collapses when Trump isn't leading the ticket. The discussion turns introspective as the hosts debate how conservatives can communicate better — using platforms like TikTok and Instagram — and craft a message about affordability, capitalism, and economic opportunity that actually resonates with new generations. They praise Mike Johnson's newfound fight under Trump's influence, warn of economic missteps, and highlight the urgent need for a new Republican voice who can inspire beyond Trump. Ultimately, the episode paints a sobering picture: while Democrats move further toward socialism, Republicans are learning — the hard way — that “Trump can't do everything.”

Has New York officially crossed the line into post-American territory? In this explosive episode, Tara and Lee break down the results of recent elections and the growing influence of socialism across key states. From Donald Trump's New York trial to Zoran Mamdani's rise, the conversation dives deep into what this means for the Republican Party, voter motivation, and the future of America's political map. Is the GOP losing its grip when Trump isn't on the ballot? And can “lost territory” like New York ever be won back?

David Waldman, Greg Dworkin, and Dems are back, baby. Now, if you are tuning in to KITM today, you are probably wanting to know when, what, where, how, and why.  When? Yesterday, and over the last 9 months or so, voters have determined that they need to fix things, and universally that Democrats were the ones to do that. What? Dems won in red and blue areas, in big and little races. Where? New Hampshire, New Jersey, Bucks County, Wake Forest, Edison… everywhere. In Cincinnati, JD Vance's brother is a loser.  You might have heard about places like California, and New York City, where the Mamdanimentum has become a Mamdanimandate. You got to love Virginia, where even the reddest counties turned blue, including, of course, home of Kagro in the Morning World Headquarters, Loudoun County. Democrats could gerrymander blue states bluer, but so could Republicans. How? The Hispanic vote, obviously, makes a lot more sense in a party that isn't cracking their skulls daily. A party whose motto is "Resistance is just asking for it." shouldn't expect much support from women. Antisemitic comedy is antisemitic. Why? Trump. The rest of them suck too, of course.  If the new Dems do a good job, the contrast will be harsher come midterms. Gops aren't the only ones smelling the onions and mustard this morning. Border Patrol agent Gregory Lairmore still has BMT PTSD. Greg Bovino says he may never recover from that punch to his blutbewußtsein, but the judge says he'll just have to soldier on. Trump still can't attack Portland, but Indianapolis wants some. Hey, guess which Dick is still dead? Cheney! Dick Cheney did horrible things when he was alive but was never the kind to allow a cardiac arrest to obstruct his skullduggery.

It’s Election Day 2025, and Mike breaks down a whirlwind of headlines — from the death of former Vice President Dick Cheney and his complicated legacy within the GOP to the rise of a self-described socialist front-runner for New York City mayor. He challenges conservatives to lead with grace in response to Cheney’s passing, warns about the dangers of apathy at the ballot box, and rallies listeners to fight back against the radical left by showing up and voting. Plus, Mike weighs in on the growing rift within MAGA world and the culture war shaking America’s political core.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jon Herold records a special preflight edition of The Daily Herold before heading to Cocoa Beach for GART 10, taking aim at the latest election “results” and the narratives being spun around them. From a Democratic sweep in New York, New Jersey, and Virginia to Vivek Ramaswamy's tone-deaf postmortem on GOP strategy, Jon argues that none of it matters in a rigged system. He breaks down how the regime fabricates consensus, manipulates optics, and uses false rebukes of Trump to shape public perception before 2026. The conversation turns to Trump's Truth Social posts calling for the end of the filibuster and warning that the Supreme Court's tariff ruling is “life or death” for the nation. Jon challenges those ideas head-on, questioning why Trump would rely on an illegitimate Senate or SCOTUS when he already holds the constitutional power to act. From info-war fatigue to Trump's “psyop loops,” Jon delivers a raw and honest reflection on faith, frustration, and the fight for reality in a country still asleep at the wheel.

CannCon and Ghost take the mic on Badlands Daily to break down the post-election chaos, exposing the fraud, psyops, and power plays shaping America's political theater. From Virginia's “rigged” races to the GOP's self-sabotage, the duo calls out controlled opposition, establishment infiltration, and the media's hypnotic hold on the public. They unpack Trump's fiery call to end the filibuster, exploring how it could unlock real election reform, or reveal the GOP's true loyalties. Ghost connects the dots between domestic corruption and global manipulation, revealing how foreign money, shadow networks, and ideological warfare fuel America's decline. The episode also hits breaking stories on Judge Boasberg's impeachment threat, FBI surveillance of senators, the Israel-Gaza fallout, and Trump's bold new UN plan for a Gaza stabilization force. Sharp analysis meets unfiltered patriotism as CannCon and Ghost cut through the noise to expose how every “coincidence” points to a single truth: the system was never meant to be fixed from within.

Today's Headlines: It's Election Day for nearly half the country, with record early turnout in New York City — over 735,000 voters — and key races for governors in New Jersey and Virginia, plus major ballot questions in California and Pennsylvania. Meanwhile, a small bipartisan group in Congress is maybe edging toward a deal to end the weeks-long government shutdown, which has crippled air travel and left millions unsure when they'll receive SNAP benefits. After two court orders, the Trump administration says it'll partially fund food assistance, though payments could still be delayed for weeks. Trump's team is also reportedly drawing up plans for a potential U.S. military mission in Mexico targeting drug cartels (because what could go wrong?). The Department of Homeland Security wants states to hand over driver's license data to help identify noncitizens on voter rolls, sparking privacy alarms. In California, ICE shot a 25-year-old U.S. citizen who'd stopped to warn officers that children would soon arrive nearby — the second ICE shooting there this week. Elsewhere, a watchdog report revealed that most donors to Trump's new ballroom are government contractors who've scored $279 billion in deals despite ongoing investigations for labor and environmental violations. OpenAI just inked a $38 billion deal to rent Amazon's computing power. And rounding out the chaos, Rep. Nancy Mace reportedly went off on TSA agents at a South Carolina airport, she of course claims it's all fake news.

Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday edition of the 3 Martini Lunch as they reflect on the legacy of the late former Vice President Dick Cheney, slam former Attorney General Eric Holder for trying to undermine the Supreme Court, and highlight more deranged behavior from the left, this time targeting Montana Sen. Tim Sheehy.First, they examine the long and influential career of Dick Cheney, from his early days in the Ford administration to serving as Defense Secretary during the Gulf War and later as one of the most consequential vice presidents in U.S. history. There will be considerable debate on the right over his legacy in the Iraq War and his endorsement of Kamala Harris in 2024. Jim also tells us about a special dinner he had with the Cheneys shortly after the 2004 election.Next, they slam former Attorney General Eric Holder for his latest comments clearly aimed at delegitimizing the U.S. Supreme Court, all because he's frustrated by the right-leaning decisions coming from the court. Holder is also among the people urging Democrats to gerrymander their congressional even more heading into the 2026 midtermsFinally, they recoil at the vile voicemail left for Sen. Sheehy by a woman who is running for local office in Montana. In the message, she hopes Sheehy contracts pancreatic cancer and dies quickly because he supported the GOP's One Big Beautiful Bill. Jim says after Charlie Kirk's murder, the Jay Jones scandal, and now this, there are a lot of people becoming detached from reality over politics.Please visit our great sponsors:Give your liver the support it deserves with Dose Daily.  Save 35% on your first month when you subscribe at https://DoseDaily.co/3ML or enter code 3ML at checkout. Get 20% off your first purchase of classic menswear.

It is Election Day, and while each race in New Jersey, Virginia, and New York City has featured issues unique to its area, this off-year election cycle is getting a lot of national attention. Part of that is because of President Trump's influence on all three contests and what their outcomes may tell us about 2026 and 2028. Co-host of America's Newsroom, Bill Hemmer, joins the Rundown to break down all three races, the surging popularity of New York City mayoral candidate Democrat Zohran Mamdani, and whether victory by him may suggest a real shift for the Democratic party. California voters are deciding on “Proposition 50” today, a measure that could push back against a mid-decade redistricting effort seen in several GOP-led states. It marks the latest chapter in the ongoing national battle over how political maps are drawn and whether those efforts will remain with changing administrations. Bruce Mehlman, founder of his own bipartisan government relations firm, joins the Rundown to explain how both parties have used gerrymandering to gain political advantage, why achieving truly bipartisan redistricting is so difficult, and how these tactics are fueling a broader loss of public trust in government. Plus, commentary from Jason Rantz, the host of The Jason Rantz Show, which can be heard weekday afternoons on KTTH Seattle.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

WA among worst states for job availability work-related stress according to a new study. // It seems like far-left candidates are poised for victories in New York and Seattle tomorrow night. Do Republicans in Virginia and New Jersey have any chance? // Democrats continue to try and shift blame for the government shutdown to the GOP.

Last Thursday's horrific suicide bombing revealed why we must get out of Afghanistan as quickly as possible. For the GOP it was an opportunity to sharpen their talking points in advance of the 2022 election; calling for Biden to resign a pathetic bone tossed to the party's MAGA base. The reality is that it's Trump and his GOP lackeys who are the real terrorists; spreading their election lies, allowing Covid to rage out of control while allowing the extremists in their party to metastasize. The fact is more death and chaos has occurred on their watch in the past year than all the US targeted terror attacks frankly, ever.

Fearing a Democratic-led House of Representatives, Donald Trump set off a state-redistricting arms race when he asked Texas to find him five more safe GOP seats. This triggered California to go hunting for five more Democratic seats, and states like North Carolina and Missouri to search for other seats in the margins. But in some states, Trump's demands are running into rare Republican resistance. Guest: Ari Berman, voting rights reporter at Mother Jones.  Want more What Next?

It's Fun Day Monday on the Majority Report On today's program: Trump's polling shows him underwater on almost every single issue. His disapproval rating is the highest it's been in either term and his approval rating hits the lowest it's been so far in his second term. Somehow the Democrats are squandering this incredible opportunity to reach the folks who are jumping ship from the GOP. Founder and editor-in0chief of Bolts Magazine, Daniel Nichanian joins the show to break down the significant elections taking pace tomorrow across the country. In the Fun Half: Rep. Joe Neguse (D-CO) pushes back against a reporter's framing of the shutdown as the Democrats' fault, using the moment to highlight the GOP's responsibility in the crisis. A refreshing moment of effective communication from a Democrat. In an example of ineffective communication, Hakeem Jeffries is thrown a soft ball from Jake Tapper when asked if Zohran Mamdani is the future of the Democratic party and he swings and misses spectacularly. Michigan Representative Haley Stevens does her best Hakeem Jeffries impression in fumbling on an easy question with an incoherent word salad. Majority Report's own Emma Vigeland went on MSNBC this weekend to discuss the failures of the democratic party. Elon Musk butchers a joke that he doesn't understand as Joe Rogan laughs like a sycophant. All that and more The Congress switchboard number is (202) 224-3121.

In recent days, President Trump issued two furious tirades demanding that Republicans end the Senate filibuster to reopen the government. He ranted at great length in demanding this “NOW” and exploded in all-caps while urging the “NUCLEAR OPTION.” As many noted, this undercut Republicans, revealing that they could simply end the shutdown themselves, ultimately showing that they control the government. Then Trump ranted about his horror that health care premiums are set to spike for millions. This, too, undercuts the GOP, because guess who won't extend Affordable Care Act subsidies to prevent that? Republicans! Trump's fury forced Mike Johnson into an awkward routine declaring that the president is “angry” because...the government hasn't reopened. But this just showed how disconnected Trump is from all this, highlighting the Trump-GOP refusal to do the hard work of negotiating a settlement. We talked to Fair Share America organizer Maura Quint. She discusses Trump's deep laziness, how this is perceived by low-info voters, and whether this will allow Democrats to penetrate Trump-dominated info spaces.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

Today on Mea Culpa, I'm joined by Michael Steele, former RNC Chair, MSNBC analyst, and host of The Michael Steele Podcast, for a blistering breakdown of Trump's latest authoritarian moves. We dig into his push to end the Senate filibuster, the demolition of the White House's East Wing to build his ballroom, and the GOP's complicity in his escalating power grab. Steele explains how the Supreme Court has become a political enforcement arm under Trump's shadow and how his own party has lost its moral compass. From the potential rollback of marriage equality to the normalization of authoritarian control, this episode sounds the alarm on the collapse of Republican restraint and the rise of a Trump America.

There's always a lag between change taking place and the effects of that change being felt. We are in that weird spot right now... and President Trump knows it. Keep the faith and trust the plan, he says. Deporting people who broke the law to be here completely undermines the democrat game plan, which is why they're so desperate to fight ICE and any enforcement to remove illegals from America. Many in the GOP want to trade Rand Paul for John Fetterman. Listen to hear why.
