Chit Chat Wednesday brings on Daniel Koh, a friend and policy pro running for Congress in MA-6, to cut through DC fog with plain talk about how the House works, why algorithms reward outrage, and how good government looks from the White House down to a town liquor license. He argues results beat rhetoric, explaining how barriers kick people off Medicaid, why neighbors and clergy helped Boston cut homicides, and how DC's status games and two-minute TV hits make politicians worse at actual service. Jared pushes on slogans, civility, and the comedy-politics attention trap, while Daniel defends debating with facts instead of haymakers and says local responsiveness should follow you to Congress. They field a dating question about “moderates,” urging specifics over labels and partnership values that show up in real life. Then it's King of the World: make trains reliably on time and fix those bathroom doors, explore heated roads and smarter lights, structure debates around substance, and upgrade broadband while keeping kids' smartphones out of school. They wrap with fundraising reality, a promise to communicate like humans, and an open invite for Massachusetts listeners to get involved.The best way to cook just got better.

This shutdown is much more complicated that it at first appears. You probably guessed that already. Many factors are in play, both political and financial. Benefits are in play. Both Federal and State food support programs exist. Gov. Newsum has other goals with his lawsuits. There are short term reserves, but less than a month's worth. There are actual elderly and others who are legitimately needy and eligible. States cannot lawfully cover SNAP costs. It's a Federal entitlement program and not State funded. Congress holds the purse strings. There is no co-mingling of funds. Dims say nobody eats until the Repubs give in. It's always the blue states. Anchor babies are eligible, but undocumented illegals are not. Illinois and California have the most. It's difficult to get off the benefits. Cal's Governor is lying as he goes Biblical. Illegals will still get benefits. There are emergency actions the President can take. Use Congress salaries for food. Trump can frame food security programs nicely. The triple CCC. When Tore testifies against Brennan, she'll be looking hot. Good liver news too. Trust your President because he knows what he's doing.

Host Casey Harper sits down with U.S. Congressman Michael Guest to unpack to unpack the government shutdown and how President Trump managed to do the impossible at the southern border. Rep. Guest shares how his personal faith shapes his work in Congress and guides his decision-making. The two also dive into the ongoing government shutdown—what’s behind it, what needs to be resolved—and discuss how Republicans and the Trump administration have worked together to strengthen border security and prioritize the interests of the American people.

Steve Scalise's top aide is leaving and it's raising big questions about the Louisiana Republican's political future. Plus: Republicans are already bracing for a brutal internal fight over healthcare once the shutdown ends. And Maryland Dems decide not to redistrict. Watch this episode on YouTube here!

Steve Hayes and Damon Linker debate whether Trump's demolition of the White House East Wing is another norm-busting outrage or just a gaudy renovation. They argue over visuals versus substance in anti-Trump outrage, Trump's manipulation of public opinion, and whether Congress's abdication of power is the true engine of American authoritarian drift. Then: could "Trump 2028" be both a joke and a trial balloon? And in Goat Grinders: the "harm-reduction community," the literal misuse of a certain word, and liberal tolerance of urban squalor.

It's News Day Tuesday on the Majority Report On today's program: The Trump administration continues to refuse to use contingency reserves to fund SNAP benefits. Trump brags about acing an IQ test and claims that AOC or Jasmine Crockett could never "pass the test" in a racist tirade. Turns out the IQ test was nothing more than a cognitive assessment designed to test for dementia. Matt administers the same test to Sam live on air. Journalist covering justice and rule of law at ProPublica, Andy Kroll joins the program to discuss his profile piece on Russ Vought. Check out Andy's article, "The Shadow President". In the Fun Half: Jim Breuer takes to social media to ask Ron DeSantis to explain the "chemtrails" in the sky. EPA Commissioner, Lee Zeldin shows that he is listening to his constituents such as Breuer as he announces a plan to share everything they know about chemtrails and "weather control" Bill Maher calls for Zohran Mamdani to renounce his Uganda citizenship over their policies that criminalize homosexuals. Those policies that were constructed with the assistance of U.S. evangelical leaders. Former White House Press Secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre was asked if she had any regrets about selling Biden's genocide support in Palestine to which she replies, "I am proud of everything I've done and take nothing back".

Chris Cuomo breaks down how the looming government shutdown and economic frustration are shaping the midterm elections — from tariffs and health care costs to the political messaging war over who's to blame. He looks at what's really driving voters' anger and why both parties are struggling to connect with the middle. Cuomo also examines how Kalshi's political betting markets are tracking the race in real time, showing where the smart money thinks control of Congress could land. With inflation stubborn, wages lagging, and families squeezed, Cuomo argues that the real election issue isn't ideology — it's survival.

On Air Force One, President Donald Trump unleashed a bizarre, angry, rambling rant about the cognitive test he supposedly aced this weekend. Worse, he compared himself cognitively to two Democrats who both happen to be nonwhite women. This rant backfired on itself: It revealed his worsening mental unfitness, his naked racism, his effort to normalize his belittling of nonwhite members of Congress and his ongoing attacks on democracy, and more. In today's installment, New Republic contributing editor Meredith Shiner, who regularly critiques press coverage of this administration, paints a powerful picture of the horrors this administration is visiting on everyday people, including in Chicago, where she lives. She argues that the press should connect Trump's mental decline directly to these real-world impacts by highlighting who's really running things behind the scenes, and discusses how Democrats might drive home the horrific human toll of it all.

The Washington Free Beacon takes us inside Jasmine Crockett's secret stock portfolio that she did not disclose to Congress, and the stocks she's bought do NOT support the climate-concerned social warrior image she portrays. Did she co-sponsor or encourage legislation to benefit her desire to own cannabis dispensaries? Harry Enten proves he doesn't understand what Trump's doing with Canada and a deeper dive into the democrat meltdown over the White House ballroom.

One of the rarest things to do in Texas politics is to defeat an incumbent U.S. Senator in a primary. It has only happened once since World War II, yet Houston Republican Wesley Hunt is jumping headfirst into the 2026 GOP primary convinced he can beat U.S. Sen. John Cornyn. In this special episode of the Texas Take, Hunt explains why he's running, talks about the role President Donald Trump has played in the campaign so far and defends his voting record after having a higher missed vote percentage than most members of Congress from Texas.

In this episode of Passing Judgment, we tackle the Supreme Court battle over Louisiana's redistricting and its far-reaching implications for voting rights. Host Jessica Levinson and NPR's Hansi Lo Wang unpack the legal fight over Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, explaining how redistricting shapes the power of racial minorities and the future of partisan gerrymandering. Join us as we break down what's at stake for Congress, the states, and the promise of equal representation.Here are three key takeaways from the episode:Redistricting = Real Voting Power: How district lines are drawn can dramatically dilute or amplify your vote. Redistricting is a complex, often opaque process with huge, tangible consequences for representation.Supreme Court Decisions Have National Impact: The outcome of Louisiana's case (and similar cases) could directly affect minority representation in Congress and potentially lock in partisan advantages for years to come.Tension Between Race & Partisan Politics: The debate isn't just about protecting minority voters.

President Trump worked harder than all the Democrats in Congress over the weekend. He addressed America's issues, domestic and foreign.There was no kicking the can down the road. Why kick the can, when you can smash the can?We closed last week with a stock market high, and it's going to keep going up. I predict the shutdown will end this week, and Democrats will cave. And there are plenty of warnings for the Democrats to do ACT!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Missouri Republicans passed a new congressional map last month that seeks to maximize GOP representation in Congress. But as St. Louis Public Radio's Jason Rosenbaum reports, a looming referendum could derail those plans – even if voters approve the new lines in 2026.

Police Against the Movement: The Sabotage of the Civil Rights Struggle and the Activists Who Fought Back (Princeton UP, 2025) shatters one of the most pernicious myths about the 1960s: thast the civil rights movement endured police violence without fighting it. Instead, as Joshua Clark Davis shows, activists from the Congress of Racial Equality and the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee confronted police abuses head-on, staging sit-ins at precinct stations, picketing outside department headquarters, and blocking city streets to protest officer misdeeds. In return, organizers found themselves the targets of overwhelming political repression in the form of police surveillance, infiltration by undercover officers, and retaliatory prosecutions aimed at discrediting and derailing their movement. The history of the civil rights era abounds with accounts of physical brutality by county sheriffs and tales of political intrigue and constitutional violations by FBI agents. Turning our attention to municipal officials in cities and towns across the US—North, South, East, and West—Davis reveals how local police bombarded civil rights organizers with an array of insidious weapons. More than just physical violence, these economic, legal, and reputational attacks were designed to project the illusion of color-blind law enforcement. The civil rights struggle against police abuses is largely overlooked today, the victim of a willful campaign by local law enforcement to erase their record of repression. By placing activism against state violence at the center of the civil rights story, Police Against the Movement offers critical insight into the power of political resistance in the face of government attacks on protest. Guest: Joshua Clark Davis Blackmer (he/him) is an associate professor of U.S. history at the University of Baltimore. Davis is also the author of an earlier book, From Head Shops to Whole Foods, which examines organic food stores, feminist enterprises, Black bookstores and other businesses that emerged from movements of the ‘60s and ‘70s. His research has earned awards from the Fulbright Program, the Silvers Foundation, and the NEH Public Scholars Program, and he has written for The Atlantic, The Nation, Slate, Jacobin, and The Washington Post, and that work has been featured in The New York Times and CNN among other venues.
