Tony Evers. Wikler argues the most effective political work is grassroots, trust-based conversations that target persuadable and low-propensity voters, noting how tiny margins can decide outcomes. He contends Democrats must prioritize state-level races—governors, legislatures, attorneys general, secretaries of state, and especially elected state Supreme Courts—to set election rules and defend democracy against Trump-era threats. Wikler describes building a year-round “permanent campaign” infrastructure in Wisconsin and outlines a step-by-step roadmap from weekly local elections through 2026 battleground-state trifectas, advancing the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, and pursuing major federal democracy reforms in 2029.You can order your copy of Ben's great new book at Bookshop.org.

So we pulled the tape. This video walks through years of on-camera statements from Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Hakeem Jeffries, Adam Schiff, Eric Swalwell, Kamala Harris, and Secretary of State Antony Blinken — all warning, in their own words, that foreign countries (Russia, China, Iran) were interfering in U.S. elections and that voting systems were vulnerable to hacking.

    Immigration courts are frequently in the headlines, with stories about massive backlogs, judicial turnover, and widely varying asylum approval rates. But how does the immigration court system actually work, and why has it become one of the biggest bottlenecks in immigration enforcement?In the latest episode of the Center for Immigration Studies' Parsing Immigration Policy podcast, Fellow in Law and Policy Andrew Arthur, a former immigration judge, provides a comprehensive tutorial on the immigration court system, explaining its history, structure, and the challenges it faces.Arthur discusses:Why immigration judges are Department of Justice attorneys—not life-tenured Article III judges—and how the immigration courts and Board of Immigration Appeals are organized.How removal proceedings work and why a final removal order is required before most aliens in the interior can be deported.How the surge in immigration cases during the Biden administration drove the court backlog to historic levels.Why the Biden-driven backlog is beginning to decline as the border and ports become more secure and immigration court case completions reach record levels.Whether hiring more immigration judges alone can solve the problem.Why asylum grant rates differ among judges and courts, and what those statistics do—and do not—show.Pending Supreme Court cases that could reshape immigration detention and court procedures.In closing, Mark Krikorian acknowledges the contributions to immigration policy of two recently deceased: Senator Lindsey Graham and Norm Matloff, professor at the University of California, Davis.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestAndrew Arthur is the Fellow in Law and Policy at the Center for Immigration Studies.LinksSen.

    Jeffrey Epstein's sprawling Zorro Ranch in New Mexico reportedly welcomed an extraordinary collection of powerful and famous visitors, including former governor Bill Richardson, Prince Andrew, and people connected to the Clinton family. Richardson was reported to have visited the ranch multiple times, while former employees and other accounts placed Prince Andrew at the property during his years-long friendship with Epstein. Bill Clinton's association with Epstein is extensively documented through meetings and travel, although the public record regarding visits by Bill and Hillary Clinton specifically to Zorro Ranch is less conclusive than the evidence connecting Richardson and Andrew to the property.Those reported visits are significant because Zorro Ranch has also been identified in survivor testimony and court records as one of the locations where Epstein's abuse and trafficking operation allegedly occurred. No one should be accused of criminal conduct simply because they visited the ranch, and the people named have denied wrongdoing where allegations were made. Still, the steady movement of politicians, royalty, wealthy businessmen and celebrities through such a remote property raises serious questions about what Epstein's guests saw, what they were told and how he managed to operate in plain sight while surrounded by some of the most influential people in the world.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

    Circle August 4th on your calendar: Michigan is now the number one marquee primary matchup I'm watching. Mallory McMorrow is out of the race as of a couple of weeks ago, and what's left is a head-to-head contest between the Democratic establishment — or at least what's left of it — and the insurgent progressive movement. Yes, friends, it's Haley Stevens versus Abdul El-Sayed, and it's set to be a knockout fight.This really represents the first live test for the current Democratic Party. Can the progressive movement, with a more charismatic candidate and a high-energy, extraordinarily competent campaign, expand its coalition enough to win statewide? Or will it do what it's done in the past — hit a ceiling when the opposition consolidates?There's only one new clean head-to-head test: a Tavern Research survey from July 6th through July 7th of 2,211 likely Democratic primary voters. It found Haley Stevens at 42%, El-Sayed at 41%, with 17 to 18% undecided. That's a margin-of-error race, but it's the first time in a very long time that we've seen Haley Stevens up over Abdul. The same poll tested the old three-person field and found El-Sayed at 41%, Stevens at 38%, and the flagging McMorrow at five. In other words, when McMorrow disappears, the voters are forced into a binary choice, and they're making it more on the Stevens side than the El-Sayed side. But still: tight, tight, tight, tight, tight.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Because we live in reboot culture, this is essentially — coalitionally, at least — Bernie Sanders versus Hillary Clinton for a new generation. The Stevens coalition is exactly like Hill-dogs: older voters, Black voters, traditional self-identified Democrats, non-college voters, and on the Michigan side, Metro Detroit — particularly Oakland, Macomb, and Wayne counties. What's powering Stevens is Black voters. She's led El-Sayed consistently in almost every poll. Meanwhile, Abdul's coalition is younger voters, very liberal and progressive voters, college-educated voters, voters outside Metro Detroit, Democratic Socialists, Arab Americans, and Muslim organizing networks. He also has significant labor support, including the UAW endorsement, despite most UAW members being non-college educated, which would normally fall outside his coalition. A very strange world we live in.The one demographic that's going to decide this race is women. They're the biggest disputed demo in every poll we've seen. An April Glenn Gariff poll showed Stevens leading among women 29% to 17%. But in a June Mitchell poll, the exact opposite was demonstrated: El-Sayed led with women 51% to Stevens's 35%. So as we look at the rest of the polls from now until Election Day, keep an eye on the ladies. They're the majority of the likely Democratic primary electorate. If Stevens can consolidate older and Black women while also inheriting McMorrow's suburban women, she can win. But if El-Sayed's progressive and younger female support holds, his coalition may be large enough to break through.Which brings me to the latest front of this war. I don't know if it's being done to court women, I don't know if it's being done specifically on purpose, but the results are undeniable: El-Sayed and Stevens are in an out-and-out shooting match to be more cringe. For Haley Stevens, this isn't something she has to worry about. She's naturally gifted in this regard. She's awkward, she has a thick Great Lakes accent, and she speaks in this clipped, emphatic manner. On one hand, she is herself. She feels less like a polished Washington candidate and more like somebody who wandered out of a Detroiters sketch. Abdul El-Sayed has the opposite problem. He's clearly a charismatic, compassionate candidate, a strong communicator, and an aggressive counterpuncher. But if you're running against him, your job is to make El-Sayed scare the hos. I think his campaign has found a solution: make himself toe-cringingly embarrassing. My read — and this is analysis, not something the campaign has admitted — is that cringe is a form of inoculation against being defined as scary. If you're embarrassing, you can't be terrifying.So who's going to win? I'm an old-school guy. I tend to bet chalk unless I'm convinced otherwise. And while I very much believe El-Sayed has the better campaign, and I think he's the better candidate if we're just looking at raw talent, I'd still bet the Michigan coalition that usually wins. Haley Stevens is a suboptimal candidate, and I've counted her out at every step of this race. I thought McMorrow was going to win. That obviously didn't happen. So don't take my prediction for a whole lot. But Stevens doesn't really have to do anything but be her cringy self to get over the line. Meanwhile, waiting on the other side, smiling like the butcher's dog, is Mike Rogers. He nearly beat Elissa Slotkin in 2024, losing by only 18 to 20,000 votes, about 0.3%. This is supposed to be more of a blue-wave year, but Rogers is going to benefit from a fractured leftward coalition. After Stevens and El-Sayed spend weeks beating the hell out of each other, the question is whether the losing half comes home. If they don't, Rogers benefits.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:03:01 - Michigan Preview00:14:58 - Update00:22:04 - Trump's Upcoming Address00:25:40 - Reconciliation00:29:36 - Inflation00:32:37 - Interview with Bill Scher01:20:01 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

    Bill frames current Democratic primaries as “establishment versus outsider,” citing races in New York City, Maine, and Michigan, and introduces Bernie Sanders' former strategist Tad Devine and his book, "How the Democrats Screwed Bernie." Devine recounts the first Sanders presidential planning meeting at Press's home, explains why Sanders ran to elevate issues like wages, healthcare for all, climate change, and campaign finance reform, and describes how Sanders' large email list fueled unprecedented small-dollar fundraising. Devine argues the 2016 nominating system—including superdelegates, limited debates, DNC coordination with the Clinton campaign, and a voter-file shutdown—was stacked against Sanders, and says Sanders would have beaten Donald Trump. Looking to 2026, Devine urges Democrats to let voters decide primaries, prioritize authenticity and economic issues, curb big-money influence, and mobilize to stop Trump.You can get your own copy of Tad Devine's book at Bookshop.org.Once again, Bill highlights the necessity of winning the midterms for Democrats to stop Donald Trump and his enablers.

    In our special Anna Nicole Smith series, we take our Undressed-inistas back to the moment our lives changed forever: the day Pol' first met Anna Nicole Smith and the friendship that inspired our book, Anna Nicole Smith: Portrait of an Icon. We reveal why we felt compelled to write our tribute after watching strangers and reporters publish books about a woman they never truly knew, while we were quietly grieving the loss of one of our closest friends. We share how Pol's career was already soaring—designing for political royalty including Hillary Clinton, California First Lady Sharon Davis, Sharon Stone, Saudi princesses, and even preparing for a meeting with Princess Diana—when an unexpected call from E! stylist Lisa Thayer changed everything. Anna Nicole needed a gown for the Academy Awards after repeatedly landing on worst-dressed lists, but Pol' hesitated. How would dressing the world's most talked-about blonde bombshell fit into a couture empire built on presidents, royalty, and Hollywood legends? Then comes the unforgettable first meeting. Pol' walks into Anna's iconic leopard-and-velvet-filled mansion carrying gowns, sketch pads, and absolutely no idea what to expect. Moments later, Anna descends the staircase in a fuzzy pink robe and slippers, clutching her beloved dog Sugar Pie, immediately asking, “Why are you making me get up this early?” What began as a fitting quickly transformed into something far more meaningful. We relive the electric chemistry between designer and muse as Anna grabbed Pol's hand, declared, “You're not like the others,” and entrusted him with creating the Academy Awards look that would reinvent her image forever. Beneath the tabloid headlines and Playboy persona was a brilliant, vulnerable woman desperate to be seen for who she truly was. The episode also dives into Patrik's first nerve-racking meeting with Anna. After hearing endlessly about “Anna,” he discovers that the mysterious best friend he has to impress is none other than Anna Nicole Smith herself. Anna instantly welcomes him into her inner circle—but not without issuing one unforgettable warning: “If you break Pol's heart, I'm going to fucking kill you.” We laugh about Pol' secretly evaluating Anna while Anna was clearly evaluating him, the surreal experience of entering her famous home, and the realization that the Oscars gown marked the beginning of a friendship that would last until her death. We also reflect on how Anna's loss, following the devastating death of her son Daniel and the relentless public scrutiny surrounding her life, forever altered our world. By the end of the episode, we realize that what started as a couture appointment became one of the most meaningful relationships of our lives. Anna wasn't just an icon, a Playmate, or a reality star—she was our friend. And decades later, she still lives in our hearts, in our memories, and even in Patrik's phone under the name “Hot Smoochie Lips.” This episode is a glamorous, emotional, and deeply personal chapter in our ongoing journey through friendship, fashion, fame, and the woman behind the legend: Anna Nicole Smith.

    Jeffrey Epstein's sprawling Zorro Ranch in New Mexico reportedly welcomed an extraordinary collection of powerful and famous visitors, including former governor Bill Richardson, Prince Andrew, and people connected to the Clinton family. Richardson was reported to have visited the ranch multiple times, while former employees and other accounts placed Prince Andrew at the property during his years-long friendship with Epstein. Bill Clinton's association with Epstein is extensively documented through meetings and travel, although the public record regarding visits by Bill and Hillary Clinton specifically to Zorro Ranch is less conclusive than the evidence connecting Richardson and Andrew to the property.Those reported visits are significant because Zorro Ranch has also been identified in survivor testimony and court records as one of the locations where Epstein's abuse and trafficking operation allegedly occurred. No one should be accused of criminal conduct simply because they visited the ranch, and the people named have denied wrongdoing where allegations were made. Still, the steady movement of politicians, royalty, wealthy businessmen and celebrities through such a remote property raises serious questions about what Epstein's guests saw, what they were told and how he managed to operate in plain sight while surrounded by some of the most influential people in the world.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

    Investigative reporter Joshua Carr joins the show for a special report live from Utah on the Tyler Robinson preliminary trial in the murder of Charlie Kirk. He breaks down the surveillance rooftop video, the alleged confession note, Lane Twigs confession, and the intense battle over DNA testing on the weapon as prosecutors push this capital murder case toward a full trial. We have the exclusive updates. Then, the stunning collapse of the Maine Senate race as progressive populist Graham Platner steps down. We unpack why the DNC abandoned him, how DSA‑aligned radicals recruited and vetted him, what this means for the Democratic Party's national brand, and how the establishment is rushing to fill the vacancy before the crucial November ballot. Is the Kamala Harris playbook running all over again?!

Is this a devastating foreign policy failure, or is this Trump's first move of 4D chess? We analyze the strategic maneuvers behind the statements, why Iran would attack considering how favorable the MOU was to them, and what happens next as the UN and all the Gulf Nations jump into the frey. And finally, Jillian takes the mic for an unmissable segment dismantling the left wing legal warfare against Trump over the past few years. She breaks down every single criminal charge ever tossed at him and debunking them one by one.  She exposes the hypocrisy of the political left including both the Obama Campaign and Hillary Clinton's campaign, highlights the complete lack of moral equivalence in modern media coverage, and reveals the true motivations behind the lawfare strategy.

    Veteran political columnist Jeb Lund (@mobute) returns to the podcast to dissect Ella McCay, the baffling film that marks James L. Brooks' return to the director's chair after 15 years.Set in 2008, the film stars Emma Mackey (no relation) as an idealistic young lieutenant-governor vaulted by circumstance into the governor's seat, only to be immediately dragged down by a political scandal involving her dim, manipulative husband (Jack Lowden) who hopes to "co-govern" the state with her.Jeb and I try our absolute best to explain the perplexing mysteries of Ella McCay. Why does it refuse to say what state it is set in? Why is it set in 2008? Why are actors in their thirties playing teenagers in flashbacks? Why is Julie Kavner narrating the entire movie like Marge Simpson as Ace Rothstein in Casino? Along the way, we discuss liberal Hollywood's lingering fixation on The West Wing and Hillary Clinton even here in the second Trump administration, and we try to define our personal definitions of "Grocerycore" music, as this film could have been benefitted from a soundtrack of Obama-era radio hits.Over 30% of all Junk Filter episodes are only available to patrons of the podcast.

    In the latest episode of the Parsing Immigration Policy podcast, Executive Director Mark Krikorian speaks with Jordan Knight, founder of Migration Watch Australia, about how record immigration levels are reshaping Australia's politics and public debate.After experiencing net negative migration during the COVID-19 pandemic, Australia saw housing costs stabilize and pressure on public services ease. But in 2023, the government admitted an unprecedented 737,000 migrants into a nation of just 27 million people. Knight explains how the resulting strain on housing affordability, homelessness, infrastructure, and public services has transformed immigration into one of Australia's defining political issues.The discussion explores the rapid rise of Pauline Hanson's One Nation party, which has gained momentum by advocating for significantly lower immigration levels and questioning Australia's decades-long embrace of multiculturalism over assimilation. Knight also examines the changing positions of Australia's major political parties, growing public skepticism toward historically high legal immigration (skilled and unskilled), the expansion of foreign student programs, and the cultural impact of high immigration levels.As Australia prepares for its next federal election in two years, Knight discusses whether mounting public concern over immigration will translate into electoral gains for One Nation and reshape the country's political landscape.In closing, Krikorian discusses the Trump administration's expanding interior enforcement efforts. As Border Czar Tom Homan has noted in recent media appearances, ICE is now making more than 2,000 arrests a day. While large numbers of those arrested have criminal convictions or pending criminal charges, increasing numbers of ordinary illegal aliens are also being taken into custody. Krikorian argues that sustained worksite enforcement will be essential if the president's promise of dramatic reduction of the illegal population is to be met.HostMark Krikorian is the Executive Director of the Center for Immigration Studies.GuestJordan Knight is the founder of Migration Watch Australia.LinksJordan Knight's Sky News ArticlesSenator Pauline Hanson Addresses the National Press Club of AustraliaJordan Knight X AccountIntro MontageVoices in the opening montage:Sen.

    Legendary Democratic strategist Tad Devine — a senior adviser to Bernie Sanders' 2016 campaign and a veteran of multiple presidential campaigns — joins the Chuck Toddcast with a new book and a provocative thesis: the Democratic Party actively screwed Bernie Sanders, and in doing so screwed itself. Devine says he got angrier and angrier as he wrote the book, revisiting how Sanders couldn't get booked on the Sunday shows for years, how the nominating process was rigged in Hillary Clinton's favor by a party establishment that gave far too much weight to insiders and superdelegates, and how roughly half of Obama's 2008 supporters migrated to Bernie in 2016. Devine wrestles honestly with the central tension of Sanders' relationship to the party: Bernie would never actually register as a Democrat (unlike Zohran Mamdani, who embraced the label), begrudgingly agreeing only to put "Democrat" next to his name, describing his agenda as the "second agenda of Benjamin Franklin" and understanding perfectly well that the word "socialism" is toxic to many voters even as he refused to abandon it. The what-ifs are tantalizing: Devine argues that if Bernie had been declared the winner of Iowa on caucus night in 2016, the whole race might have unfolded differently, and that if Sanders had won the first three states, the establishment would have mobilized to stop him by any means necessary. The conversation broadens into a sweeping critique of how Democrats choose their nominees and what the party needs to reform. Devine argues the party must give voters far more control over nominations, that the primary calendar is one of the most important and underappreciated parts of the entire process, and that independents should be allowed to participate in either party's primary rather than being forced to register months in advance. He credits Sanders with hitting on the enduring insight that the system is rigged against working people — a message supercharged after the Supreme Court unleashed the flood of money into politics following Obama's election — and makes the striking counterfactual case that Bernie would have beaten Trump in 2016 because, unlike Hillary Clinton, he could credibly run as a change candidate, and the white working-class vote wouldn't have broken so heavily toward Trump. Devine muses that Sherrod Brown would have made a strong running mate for Sanders, wonders aloud whether Bernie would ever have said yes to Clinton as a running mate, and argues that electing Bernie would have been a powerful national reckoning. He's clear-eyed about the party's deeper problem — the DNC is fundamentally risk-averse, and politics is about taking risks. Protect your family with life insurance from Ethos.

    Chuck Todd opens with the Iran war back on and the rug pulled out from under the world economy once again — but his central argument is that this is now the biggest broken campaign promise in 40 years. He draws a crucial distinction between ordinary campaign lies and genuinely major broken promises: "build the wall" was a broken promise that didn't much hurt Trump, but "no new wars" was foundational to his appeal, and the Iran calamity is now actively damaging the economy and making everyday life harder for the voters who trusted him. He notes candidate Trump was actually right that an Iran war would be irresponsible, that securing anything would require a months- or years-long ground commitment Trump won't make, and that the president was so consumed with keeping his birthday celebration on schedule that he tried to time the war around it. Marco Rubio, as always, has vanished now that things are going badly. Todd flags the NATO meetings underway in Turkey (a complicated ally Trump only engages because he and Erdogan play by the same strongman rules), marvels that Trump remains inexplicably sympathetic to a Putin who has never been weaker, and warns that all of it is making Americans less safe. He then turns to the Maine Senate race, which has become a genuine debacle: Todd argues Graham Platner was caught in a clear lie to Democratic senators about Jenny Racicot — who has said publicly she believes Platner sexually assaulted her — and that Platner knew both what she believed and that she was talking to reporters. Todd is emphatic that the lies need to be called out, that leaning into misogyny is no way to win back working-class white men, and that progressives cannot let Trump set the bar for acceptable character. He frames the whole primary through the fighter-versus-winner divide, notes this could be the second high-profile Bernie-endorsed candidate to lose (raising the stakes for Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan and underscoring how much harder it is for progressives to win statewide), and argues the progressive left urgently needs to get its house in order. Todd closes with two intriguing threads: the swirling rumors about Mitch McConnell's health and status (his seat is on the ballot in November, and Kentucky's legislature changed its vacancy-appointment law in a way that may violate the state constitution but has never been tested in court), and the escalating fight between the Trump administration and the Smithsonian — where Todd concedes the administration had a couple of fair critiques but argues that its core complaint, that the museum is "woke" for simply asking questions about history, amounts to demanding the Smithsonian swap one alleged ideology for an openly right-wing one, when the honest approach to contested history is simply to present the facts and let people interpret them. Then, legendary Democratic strategist Tad Devine — a senior adviser to Bernie Sanders' 2016 campaign and a veteran of multiple presidential campaigns — joins the Chuck Toddcast with a new book and a provocative thesis: the Democratic Party actively screwed Bernie Sanders, and in doing so screwed itself. Devine says he got angrier and angrier as he wrote the book, revisiting how Sanders couldn't get booked on the Sunday shows for years, how the nominating process was rigged in Hillary Clinton's favor by a party establishment that gave far too much weight to insiders and superdelegates, and how roughly half of Obama's 2008 supporters migrated to Bernie in 2016.

    ‘How the Democrats Screwed Bernie.' Former Sanders chief campaign strategist Tad Devine on the 2016 presidential race

    In 2016, U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., was an insurgent candidate taking on Hillary Clinton, the heavily favored pick of the Democratic establishment for the presidential primary. As Sanders barnstormed the country and brought out millions of people to hear his message, the Clinton machine's operatives and super-PACs swung into action to stop him by any means necessary.Tad Devine was deep in the trenches of this fight. He is a veteran Democratic political consultant and was chief strategist for Sanders' 2016 presidential campaign. Prior to that he had been a senior adviser in the presidential campaigns of Al Gore in 2000 and John Kerry in 2004.Devine has written an explosive new book about the 2016 Democratic primary campaign, “How the Democrats Screwed Bernie.” His inside account comes as a new generation of populist Democrats, including New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner, is once again challenging the Democratic establishment and receiving fierce pushback from the old guard.Devine writes that “the entrenched leadership of the Democratic Party seems determined to forget the mistakes it made during the primary season of 2016.” He blames the Democratic elite for “two catastrophic defeats in the recent past and who knows how many more to come in the future.”Devine insists, “The Democratic Party must stop impeding voters from determining the outcome of primaries.”Could Bernie have beaten Donald Trump in 2016?“Donald Trump's own pollster showed up at Harvard for the post-election review, and when asked what would have happened if Sanders was the nominee, he said he would have won,” Devine told me. “He understood that those white working-class voters who fled Hillary Clinton would have gone back to Bernie Sanders.”Devine said the reason the Democratic Party is “completely out of touch with the American people” is because it participates in “a rigged system” in which the richest donors can buy elections. He said that in other countries, “if they threw money into campaigns anonymously, they would go to jail.”“We have to break from that stranglehold of money in politics and establish ourselves as a party that is willing to seek funding through people at the grassroots level.”There are two ways to fix the corrupt campaign financing system, Devine said. “One is elections, and the second is the Constitution and overriding the Supreme Court. That is the only way home right now for America.”Devine said that “overwhelming majorities of Democrats, Republicans, independents support changing the system of campaign finance.” What they need is “a visionary leader or leaders to come out and to move the nation in that direction.” Is there any particular leader who he thinks has promise? Devine suggested Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro or California Gov. Gavin Newsom might emerge. But he noted that Barack Obama was an Illinois state senator until 2004 when he was elected a U.S. senator, and then won the presidency four years later. “People can come up very quickly in this day of instant communication.”When that leader emerges, he predicted, “I think politics will change in America and will give it back its soul.”

    Bill talks with Slate's Dahlia Lithwick about the Supreme Court's 2025–26 term, arguing it is decisively the Roberts Court and increasingly deferential to President Trump, especially through heavy reliance on the shadow docket, where Trump has won many emergency orders without signed opinions or reasoning. They discuss major rulings: a narrow outcome on birthright citizenship that Lithwick warns could be revisited; a decision granting broad presidential immunity; decisions expanding presidential power to fire heads of independent agencies; and immigration rulings allowing removal of Haitian and Syrian immigrants' Temporary Protected Status and restricting asylum. Lithwick also highlights Voting Rights Act and redistricting decisions, expanded campaign spending, and a tariffs loss for Trump tied to economic stability concerns.

Use this link to register: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/ay2YXuCvRLOp1dV5yh8HKwWomen in politics, media, and public life are often placed at the center of the spectacle while being silenced on the issues that matter.Media scholar Allison Butler talks to Steve about her book, Judgment of Gender, exposing how patriarchal power and capitalist media institutions weaponize pop culture and construct narratives that fixate on appearance, personality, and scandal while obscuring questions of class and power. The conversation reveals a core dialectical contradiction: women are centered in media only to be silenced. Their personhood is reduced to superficial tropes.The critiques of political candidates Hillary Clinton, Kamala Harris, and even Nikki Haley, focus on pantsuits, headbands, voice, and age instead of their actual policies, their service to capital, and their imperialist actions (hello? Clinton's role in Libya? “We came, we saw, he died.”) The media's obsession with superficiality silences substantive class-based critique.Allison's highlights the crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous women. This is critical. It is not a fringe issue but a stark example of state-sanctioned violence and the super-exploitation of the most oppressed. That the legacy media's silence on this horror renders these lives invisible is a feature, not a bug, of a system that treats Indigenous lives as disposableAllison Butler is a Senior Lecturer, Associate Chair, and the Director of the Media Literacy Certificate Program in the Department of Communication at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, where she teaches courses on critical media literacy and representations of education in the media. She serves as Vice President on the board of the Media Freedom Foundation. She is the author of numerous articles and books on media literacy, and she is a co-author of multiple practical resources for media literacy education.IG: @atbutler5LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/allison-butler-190882108/Project Censored IG, X, Facebook: @projectcensored

    Bill felt we all needed a break from Politics and so this Fourth of July edition of the Bill Press Pod features NPR's Scott Simon, discussing Simon's book, Ulysses S. Cat and Other Animals I Have Known, and his family's view that animals are members of the same family as humans. Simon shares stories about early pets like Penny the German shepherd and Hoppy the grasshopper, including how caring for Hoppy revealed his father's ingenuity during a difficult time. He also talks about current pets Daisy the French poodle and Gato Blanco, an oversized, opera-loving cat who frequently interrupts home interviews. Simon reflects on animals' roles in art and literature and recounts moving examples from covering Sarajevo and Hurricane Katrina where people risked danger or refused evacuation to protect their pets, leading to changed evacuation policies. Bill closes by previewing a Supreme Court discussion with Dahlia Lithwick next Tuesday.You can order Scott's new book at Bookshop.org.

    It took 65 years for that message to completely reverse itself in the Democratic Party and on the Left. Out is personal achievement. In is victimhood. Out is reaching for the stars. In is ushering in oppressed people from all over the world to ensure a steady supply. Out is the right of American citizens with their vote. In are people who don't respect that vote.As Trump gives his speech at Mount Rushmore later this evening, Zohran Mamdani, who is supposedly just the Mayor of New York City, has positioned himself as Trump's equal, the Mirror President for the other America. Thirsty as ever, in love with his own image, thinking who the hell he is, he has the audacity to sit in George Washington's chair to make a speech about a new America he hopes to invent, one without borders, without Capitalism, without billionaires.His speech paints the American government as oppressive, while demonizing them for policing immigration:"We see it just as clearly in every American who still believes this country belongs to we, the people. We see America each time neighbors link arms with neighbors without asking how long they've lived here or what papers they have as ICE invades our neighborhoods. We see America each time working people demand more, not just for themselves, but for their fellow Americans."The irony is that he demonizes the rich, the very people who pad his risks in New York City and help him present a fake-pretend utopian fantasy that only works because of the rich people in the city, because they won't let it fail. It's absolution, after all, and there is no price high enough for that. It took America 250 years to arrive at a place where the country might finally, at long last, “be like Europe.” How many times did I hear that throughout my life? Why can't we be like Europe? We were raised to hate our country, to see it as a Capitalist hellhole of the haves and the have-nots, a lesser nation than France or the UK or Italy. No wonder Mamdani thinks he speaks for everyone. But we didn't have a bloody revolution just to copy England.Mamdani is like a cult leader who can now exploit whole generations who have been indoctrinated to believe that there is something rotting at the core of America's heart, a disease of “white supremacy” and a history of exploitation, colonization, slavery, trauma, abuse, and poverty. Their only answer for this is to “be more like Europe.” At best, that is where they land. Really, it's probably closer to “be more like China.”They're already halfway there. Cancel culture has silenced all dissent. The DSA is rising, and the Democrats have kissed Mamdani's ring.Not because it is easy…It's not easy making it in America. It's not easy making enough money for a decent home, to raise a family, and to take a vacation once in a while. No one ever said it would be easy, least of all, JFK:We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things not because they are easy, but because they are hard. Because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we're willing to accept.”JFK was assassinated before I was born. The Democrats were haunted by him for my entire life, until Barack Obama came along and was the first to erase the ghosts of the past and redefine what it meant to be both a Democrat and a person of the Left. That meant fundamental things would change. One of the biggest changes was going from believing in personal achievement to believing in victimhood. Obama took the obstruction of his policies personally. It was those racist Republicans. So they set about changing the hearts and minds of the young and teaching them that the only reason they couldn't succeed was their victim status, and before long, that became the only thing that mattered about them. But for that movement to succeed, it required a sick country, not a healthy one. The Democrats were split in 2016 between the “white working class” in Bernie's Democratic Socialism and the identity politics of Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama. Now, what we're seeing is a marriage between the two. Now, it's not what Vivek Ramaswamy called Woke Capitalism, but rather, Woke Socialism. Isn't it just another way to sell to Gen-Z?They are the most privileged generation ever to walk the face of the earth. Capitalism gave them social media, email, a computer in the palm of their hand, DoorDash, Google, Uber, TikTok, YouTube, streaming music, television shows, fast food, fast fashion, Instacart, Airbnb, influencer culture, and movies. And it's not enough. Why can't they be a Kardashian and have birthday parties with ten thousand balloons? Why can't they travel to Europe? Why can't they own a house? Why can't they live on Manhattan's Upper West Side? Why is Elon Musk a trillionaire with so many homeless people on the streets? Why are they so miserable, so full of anxiety, so full of hate? How can a life of convenience be so hard?They want an easy life as they have in Sweden, Italy, or France. They want to Free Palestine. They want their happy ending for all oppressed people all over the world, especially those crossing the border. They were told this was America's problem, so why can't they change America to fix it?And if they can't have it, well…They were raised to believe it should all be easy. If you have anxiety, take a pill. If movies and books trigger you, they'll have trigger warnings. Bullies at school will be eradicated. Self-esteem is what matters most. Words are violence. If masculinity is too toxic, we'll feminize society to make it easier.Mothers of my generation coddled the American mind. We helicoptered our children. We kept them from every imaginable harm, and we tried to clear a path to success. We taught them that you should only do things if they're easy, not if they are hard. Because if they are too hard, that might lead to failure, and our kids could never fail.But we forgot to teach them the value of hard work and failure because we never wanted them to feel any discomfort. If their lives were easy, we felt like we'd accomplished something because they'd be happy. But happiness comes from service, from building something, achieving something, doing something hard. This country has always been “move fast and break things” but also “move fast and build things.” Invent things, envision things, start a business. I could never have started a business as a single mother in Italy as I did in America in 1999. America is the only country where anyone can build anything. The downside of that is that it's hard. There is a price to pay for freedom. Unless you've felt freedom, real freedom, in your mind and heart, you'll never love this country the way I do. I love feeling free and always have. I had to escape the Left and the Democratic Party because I no longer felt free, as they no longer believe in freedom. They believe in forced compliance and conformity.But freedom also means this:And this:They're just too dumb by now to realize that they live in a free country where they can say and do anything they please without being shot on the spot or thrown in jail. They're free to call Trump a fascist dictator because he isn't one. They're free to protest “No Kings” because Trump isn't one. Mamdani wants to fundamentally transform America and turn it into a Communist utopia, and the Democrats are letting him. That is not the way to lead America 250 years in. No, we have to fight for what America is. It is not a failure, not yet. It is worth fighting for. Younger generations should be taught that they can do anything with their lives, no matter their skin color, and that they can make money right now on YouTube, Substack, and TikTok. They can start a business. They can go to trade school. They can use AI to get them where they need to go because it can make any ordinary person well-skilled and productive. And it's free. It's all there for the taking, but it will never be enough for a movement fueled by victimhood.A Nation built on strengthObviously, Donald Trump is not perfect. Every day, someone throws out another immoral or unethical thing they believe disqualifies him from leading. Ya, we got that. Your job was to beat him by making a better case to the American people, and you never did.Trump was called to this moment in history to hold fast and true to America's founding principles. I've never seen a more patriotic American, let alone a president, in my entire life. He's celebrating every part of it. He's reviving our history. He's making us proud of our country. Trump's White House YouTube channel has videos like this:Endless amounts of them, trying to fill the cup back up to halfway full for future generations. Later tonight, Trump will once again be at Mount Rushmore to give a speech for America at 250. I already know what he will say because I know him, and I know no president in my lifetime has loved this country more. He'll remind us what America is and what threatens us now. And seething in the background will be bitter, angry, jealous people who have to root for America's failure, not because they hate him that much, but because they refuse to relinquish their power back to the people. They could have won the election, but instead, they went to war.They will have to hold on to that hate for years to come so they can pass it on to their children and make them understand why they could not celebrate a country that, to paraphrase U2, gave them everything they ever wanted … it wasn't what they wanted. I live in a town that is full of wealthy white liberals, and almost no one has a flag out front. I put two up by my fence to show my gratitude and my love for this glorious, young, imperfect, beautiful country. I can only hope no one steals it in a rage. On the other hand, people in my town have a long tradition of putting out chairs for the 4th of July parade a month in advance. The chairs stretch out for miles, and no one ever takes them. To be an American means self-governance, but it also means being part of that fragile, invisible thread that ties us together, like chairs that line the main highway, all different but somehow the same because we're all in it together and celebrating the nation's birthday, not because it is easy — but because it is hard. This isn't my love letter to America. That will come tomorrow. But it is my way of saying that no one should lead this country who wants it to be anything other than what it was born to be: free. /// This is a public episode.

    CannCon and Alpha Warrior debut the rebranded Badlands Daily with a new intro and a packed Thursday. John Brennan sues the DOJ to preserve records, and Alpha delivers the standout analysis of the episode: this is a reverse indictment designed to force early discovery, protect his co-conspirators, and delay the RICO grand conspiracy case, a move so sharp it made Alpha genuinely angry. Trump tells Bill Pulte at DNI to declassify anything he wants, and Hillary Clinton responds on CNN by openly hoping career appointees slow-walk and refuse to cooperate, which CannCon and Alpha read as pure panic. The birthright citizenship ruling drives a long segment on birth tourism, Chinese sperm and surrogate schemes, the Saipan loophole, and the compassion the hosts admit is being stripped from them. Tim Walz pardoned an illegal alien who repeatedly raped a 10-year-old to shield him from deportation. On Iran, Ghost's rogue-ship analysis of the Strait of Hormuz strikes gets unpacked as likely Kabuki theater. The MK Ultra hearing brings Jack Ruby, Manson, and Tim Burchett's theory that algorithm-driven MK Ultra could manufacture assassins, leading into a spirited CannCon versus Alpha debate on the Charlie Kirk shooting.

    Bill talks with political strategist and messaging consultant Anat Shenker-Osorio about what Democrats should say—and who should say it—heading into the midterms to check Trump 2.0. Shenker-Osorio argues Democrats must combine an affordability agenda with a clear villain frame, calling Trump's team “bullies for the billionaires,” and pair warnings about authoritarianism with credible promises to act as a real check, not just “shout fire.” She says corruption messaging is not automatically a Democratic advantage because many voters believe all politicians are corrupt, and criticizes party leaders like Chuck Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries, and Amy Klobuchar for ineffective communication. And the need for money has pols spending too much time on donor-driven “call time.” They discuss campaign “magnetism,” lessons from New York races and Zohran Mamdani's focus on concrete benefits, Jon Ossoff's anti-corruption appeal, backlash from James Carville, and the mixed calculus around Maine candidate Graham Platner's working-class message amid allegations about past behavior.Today Bill urges you to support Jon Ossoff by going to ACTBlue.com.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    You HAVE to see this — Florida Lt. Gov. Jay Collins just used his own prosthetic leg as the ultimate "participation trophy" and completely shut down Byron Donalds' refusal to debate! Pat Gray breaks down the fiery moment where Collins, a twice battle-injured Special Operations veteran, clapped back hard at Donalds' campaign saying there are “no participation trophies in politics.” Collins didn't just talk — he took off his prosthetic leg and slammed it on the podium, reminding everyone what real sacrifice looks like. This isn't just campaign drama — it's a raw moment exposing the difference between empty talk and actual service in the Florida governor's race.
