Five weeks ago, I started talking to the team at the The Cook Political Report, one analyst at a time. This week I closed it out with the one I'd saved for last on purpose: David Wasserman, senior editor and the guy whose “I've seen enough” has closed out election nights for over a decade.I told him going in I wouldn't hold him to a prediction. He didn't need the disclaimer. “The numbers have gone from very bad to extremely bad for President Trump and Republicans,” he told me, then walked me through exactly why that still isn't the same thing as a sure thing.Independents have Trump's favorability sitting in the mid-20s. That's a wave-election signal, by his own description. And yet Republicans still have the map. Democrats need every purple Senate seat plus two states Trump carried by double digits in 2024. Gerrymandering ate most of what should have been an easy House flip. So David gives Democrats 75 to 80 percent in the House and something close to a coin flip in the Senate. Bad numbers. Not a landslide.What struck me most wasn't the math. It was what he said drives it. “Everything falls under the bucket of inflation, or most everything,” he told me — healthcare premiums, gas and fertilizer prices after the Strait of Hormuz closed, tariffs squeezing farmers who voted for this. He doesn't think those voters defect to the other side. He thinks they just stay home. James Carville figured that one out in 1992. Some things do not age.He also let me in on something that should worry anyone who reads a poll and calls it a fact: pollsters are now modeling the views of the country off the roughly 1 percent of people who bother to pick up and answer. The best data, he said, rarely even makes it out publicly. Everyone else is reading a narrower picture than they think they are.We closed on Iowa, which he called the most important state of 2026 — a Senate race, a governor's race and a state more exposed to foreign trade than nearly any other in the country, all on one ballot.Five conversations. Five people who do this work with more precision, more humility and more generosity than I expected going in. To Erin Covey, Carrie Dann, Amy Walter, Kathryn Hamm, Jessica Taylor and David Wasserman: thank you for trusting this show with your time. It was a genuinely great month.Three moments from the conversation, below.Key Quotes“The numbers have gone from very bad to extremely bad for President Trump and Republicans.” — David Wasserman“Everything falls under the bucket of inflation, or most everything.” — David Wasserman“We're relying in some cases on the 1% or less of people who are agreeing to take the survey to model the attitudes of the other 99%.” — David WassermanTakeawayThe environment is bad enough for Republicans to look historic, and structurally advantaged enough that it might not be. Whoever tells you they already know how November ends is skipping the second half of that sentence. Get full access to Lisa Camooso Miller at newsletter.fridayreporter.com/subscribe

In this episode of 47 Morning Update w Ben Ferguson, Ben examines the escalating conflict between Democratic Party veterans and influential voices on the far left, focusing on James Carville’s criticism of Piker, the role of the Democratic Socialists of America, and what they argue are signs of growing tension within the party. They discuss ideological battles over socialism, party identity, economic policy, generational politics, and the potential electoral consequences of those divisions. A growing dispute inside the Democratic Party is drawing national attention as longtime Democratic strategist James Carville publicly denounces streamer and self-described socialist Hasan Piker, arguing that Democratic Socialists should stop using the Democratic label. The clash raises a larger question: is the party experiencing a genuine ideological divide, or simply confronting the consequences of empowering its progressive wing? The debate comes as Democratic Socialists, progressive activists, and party establishment figures argue over the future direction of the party ahead of a major election. Comments from Carville, responses from Piker, and broader concerns about socialism, party branding, and voter coalitions have intensified the conversation. Topics Covered: James Carville’s criticism of Piker and the Democratic Socialists of America Debate over whether progressive activists represent a faction of the Democratic Party or a separate movement Discussion of Abdul El-Sayed and progressive political organizing Arguments about socialism, government spending, inflation, and economic policy The role of education, media influence, and generational political change Questions about how ideological divisions could affect upcoming elections Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

James Carville returns to the Daily Beast Podcast with a blunt prediction for the midterms, arguing that Donald Trump's grip on Republicans could become their biggest liability as voters head to the polls. Carville weighs in on Republicans trying to distance themselves from Trump, the spectacle and price tag of Trump's upcoming Dallas convention, and why he believes Democrats should cover it relentlessly. He also delivers a stark warning about Pete Hegseth's impact on the military, argues that Trump could walk away from the presidency when Republicans turn on him, and makes a striking prediction about who will control the Senate in January. #ad Go to https://ro.co/dailybeast to see if you qualify and get started on Ro.

We break down the "Trump Factor" dominating the GOP primaries, where Donald Trump is maintaining an incredible 97% endorsement track record. But with the midterms looming, Trump is sounding the alarm on a potential "doomsday reckoning," warning Republicans not to sleepwalk through November and urging voters to "pretend like I'm on the ballot".We also dive into the rising tide of Democratic Socialist of America (DSA) candidates running in deep-red states, the progressive civil war over House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries meeting with Jared Kushner, and James Carville's salty, R2-D2-style bleeped meltdown.

Multiple sailors aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln have reportedly attempted to jump overboard amid severe mental stress, food shortages, and inadequate basic supplies after more than 250 consecutive days at sea. In this segment Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger highlight allegations from sailors and their families about deteriorating conditions across multiple Navy and Marine Corps ships, including shortages of fresh food, toiletries, laundry facilities, and other necessities.  The two also contrast those conditions with Pentagon spending, including millions of dollars on lobster, ribeye steaks, king crab, and other expenses under the military's "use it or lose it" budgeting practice. The commentary argues that the disparity reflects serious leadership and resource-allocation problems within the U.S. military, particularly as service members endure unusually long deployments. Plus segments on Bibi Netanyahu revealing that Israel's war is with Christianity and the West, TPUSA Pastor Rob McCoy caught lying about the rooftop shooter and recent reports of San Francisco cops' outrageous salaries. Also featuring Stef Zamorano and Mike MacRae! Plus a phone call from James Carville!

Hasan Piker just broke the Democratic Party, and James Carville and Joe Scarborough couldn't stay quiet about it. Jacob Smith, better known as The Moderate Case, joins the rundown to go story by story: a Democratic nominee who compared football to colonialism, a Wisconsin primary decided by 3,000 votes, and Massachusetts erasing its abortion limit entirely. In this episode: * Massachusetts Just Erased Its Abortion Limit. Governor Maura Healey signs the Patients Access to Care Act, eliminating the state's 24-week gestational limit and putting the decision entirely in physicians' hands. Only eight countries in the world have no limit at all. * Abdul El-Sayed Says Football Is Colonialism. His viral comparison of the NFL to toxic masculinity, manifest destiny, and the transatlantic slave trade, and he just won the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate in Michigan, beating establishment favorite Rep. Haley Stevens. * Hasan Piker Just Broke the Democratic Party. James Carville and Joe Scarborough publicly break with their own party over Piker's October 7 comments and his admission that his favorite flag is Hezbollah's, even as Chuck Schumer, Donna Brazile, and Hillary Clinton defend him under "big tent" cover. * A Socialist Nearly Took Wisconsin. Francesca Hong, backed by the DSA, loses the governor's primary to David Crowley by fewer than 3,000 votes, a margin close enough to worry the party's establishment wing. * "We Have to Civilize You." A Sharia law survivor's warning at a Texas city council meeting, a Dearborn speaker who says Muslims are here to civilize the West, and Hamtramck, Michigan's ban on the pride flag.

Episode 1015 takes apart James Carville, the "rusted-out antique device" who trashes progressives on Fox News over a single deleted Thanksgiving tweet and then pivots to backing the very candidate he just attacked, all while forgetting his own most famous line ("It's the economy, stupid"). Driftglass and Blue Gal do the math on his supposed DSA takeover panic — two national officeholders versus 257 mainline Democrats — and coin a new verb, "Carvilling," for pundits who tantrum toward MAGA cameras whenever Democrats won't chase imaginary hippies. The episode also solves a year-and-a-half mystery: why Jamelle Bouie waited so long to demolish a David Brooks column, tracing it back through Bob Herbert, Paul Krugman, and Reagan's Neshoba County dog whistle to an unwritten New York Times rule against columnists attacking colleagues in print. It's about faithless allies, decibels versus messaging, and the actual math behind a manufactured crisis.Links for this episode: Driftglass on The Bob Cesca Show – https://www.bobcesca.com/the-bob-cesca-interview-driftglass-day-8-12-26/Driftglass on The Nicole Sandler Show – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyneHDGQkr8 Carville on CNN https://www.cnn.com/2024/10/05/politics/james-carville-election-what-mattersJamelle Bouie, full video  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46tpqFxfomI More at proleftpod.com. Stay in Touch! Email: proleftpodcast@gmail.com Website: proleftpod.com Support via Patreon: patreon.com/proleftpod or Donate in the Venmo App @proleftpodMail: The Professional Left, PO Box 9133, Springfield, Illinois, 62791Support the show

James and Al cover yesterday's primary results and weigh the influence of Trump and the DSA on their respective parties going into the midterm elections.  Then, they welcome congressional candidate for WI-03, Rebecca Cooke, to discuss the reasons she won her recent primary, her plans to unite the factions of the party into a big tent for the general election, and the effect of big tech on local economies.  Afterward, they are joined by the author of the 2024 Democratic Party autopsy report, Paul Rivera, to explain the findings, take the party and the DNC to task, and lay out the changes the party needs to make going forward.Email your questions to James and Al at politicswarroom@gmail.com or tweet them to @politicon.  Make sure to include your city– we love to hear where you're from!

Would you like to hear about yesterday's primaries? If so, you've come to the right place, KITM, with the right people, David Waldman and Greg Dworkin, to satisfy all your post-primary cravings. In Connecticut, voters embraced change and sent warhorse John Larson out to pasture. In Minnesota, the primary upended political assumptions in 6 ways, none of which are as fun as watching Mike Lindell (and Trump) lose. Mike, ever the crowd pleaser, plans to lose the election over and over again for the foreseeable future. In South Carolina, Darline Graham and Trump aren't yet losing but are now failing. In Wisconsin, it wasn't quite a progressive triumph, but almost, with Francesca Hong's last-minute plateauing and normie Dems flooding the polls. David Crowley might not like campaigning, but apparently, he seems to love holidays. Almost no one is as normie or as old as James Carville, yet he supports Abdul El-Sayed. On to the midterms, if we can keep them. Every slimeball is spit balling election subversion, including the Wad in Chief. The problem is that people hate trump, which in turn keeps boosting Democratic numbers. Also, election subversion tends to be illegal… as if hatred or illegality ever bothered Trump before. Election denier Cleta Mitchell granted DHS elections official Heather Honey a lot of money. A special grand jury might not find enough evidence to bring anyone to trial, but it will allow Jeanine Pirro and Trump to be incredibly catty. So far, Donald K. Trump has been able to stuff 5 scandals into his "Air Force One" Scandal, but there's always room for plenty more!

Thom Tillis just wrote a whole book about standing up to Trump, but voted yes on every single Trump cabinet pick including Todd Blanche.

Britain is on its seventh prime minister since bidding adieu to the EU a decade back. There's news of once-unimaginable crimes and ethnic strife shaking once sleepy shires. Even model citizens like scholar-slash-philanthropist and casual world-class athlete Jason Arday are having a hard go of it. For the lowdown on the United Kingdom's political crisis, we're joined by our new pal, historian and commentator Dominic Green.Plus, the regular hosty blokes see plenty of problems on our side of the pond, especially after the DSA proves that they can win statewide primaries outside coastal enclaves. But there's always plenty to be cheery about in the land of opportunity, like DIY burritos, roaring roller coasters, and albums so familiar that you can spot the covers from miles away.Opening sound this week: Hasan Piker says, “(Screw) Black people!” James Carville says “I'm outta here” to Fox News, and UK MP Rupert Lowe says, “Everybody has to go!”Closing music: "God Save the Queen," by Ian Post (via MotionArray)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-ricochet-podcast--5817275/support.

James Carville returns to the Daily Beast Podcast with a blunt prediction about Donald Trump's future, arguing that the president could ultimately quit rather than face the political collapse he believes is coming after the midterms. Carville explains why he thinks Trump's power is already beginning to evaporate, what a Trump resignation and pardon from JD Vance could look like, and which alleged financial scandals could come under scrutiny if Democrats retake Congress. He also weighs the risks of another election-disruption campaign, the Democrats' internal battle over the party's future, why he believes South Carolina voters could play a decisive role in choosing the next Democratic nominee, and what he makes of Mitch McConnell's prolonged absence from the Senate Go to https://ro.co/DAILYBEAST to see if you qualify and get started on Ro.

Legendary Democratic strategist James Carville joins Donny Deutsch for a no-holds-barred conversation on where the Democratic Party is headed — and who's driving it off a cliff. Carville and Deutsch dig into the rise of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), the growing rift with progressive candidates like AOC and Zohran Mamdani, and why he believes the far-left wing of the party is losing touch with Black voters, Latino voters, and the working class. The two also break down the 2028 presidential race, Bernie Sanders' legacy, potential Democratic frontrunners like Josh Shapiro, and what a post-Trump Republican Party could look like. Carville doesn't hold back on Trump's approval numbers, the state of the U.S. economy, and his predictions heading into the 2026 midterms. Plus: a candid discussion on Israel, Gaza, Benjamin Netanyahu, antisemitism, and why he thinks Israel is "losing the messaging war" — and New York City's new tax and political climate under Mayor Mamdani. A must-listen for anyone following American politics, Democratic Party strategy, progressive vs. moderate Democrats, the 2026 midterm elections, and the road to the 2028 presidential election.

Why is socialism suddenly becoming popular again in America—and what are the real consequences if it succeeds? In this episode of The Tudor Dixon Podcast, Tudor sits down with Dr. Anne Bradley, professor of economics at the Institute of World Politics and Vice President of Academic Affairs at The Fund for American Studies, to examine the resurgence of democratic socialism and why so many young Americans are embracing it. The conversation explores why "free" government programs have become politically appealing, how envy and economic frustration fuel socialist movements, and why history repeatedly shows socialism leading to economic failure and government control. Tudor and Dr. Bradley also discuss the rise of crony capitalism, corporate welfare, regulatory barriers facing small businesses, and how government favoritism undermines entrepreneurship and opportunity. Drawing from history, economics, and Tudor's own experience running for governor of Michigan, they explain the difference between free-market capitalism and government-controlled economies—and why protecting opportunity matters more than ever.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

ust when you thought Democrats had hit peak crazy, Wisconsin said, "Hold my kombucha." Francesca Hong is running for governor with a platform of abolishing police and ICE, trashing American holidays, and threatening President Trump's life. The Democratic civil war is officially a communist takeover. Bernie Sanders' handpicked candidate Abdul El-Sayed is surging in Michigan as the party's socialist wing turns its fire on establishment Democrats. Even Bill Maher, James Carville, and longtime liberals are sounding the alarm, while CNN is making sure nobody calls it "communism." The "Save Our Bacon Act" sounds patriotic, but really it's a gift to a Chinese-owned pork giant. Congress wants to override state animal welfare laws, crush local control, and hand more power to Big Pork. ► Catch up on my H-1B Visa Investigations: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkJEwf2wliqrtNlYs9D78nmE_Gnja_PpC ► Email me at saratips@blazemedia.com if you have uncovered potential fraud in your area. ► Subscribe to my second YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@SaraGonzalesTX?sub_confirmation=1 ► Home Title Lock: Go to https://hometitlelock.com/sara and use promo code SARA to get a FREE title history report and a FREE TRIAL of the Triple Lock Protection!

Join Jim and Greg for the Tuesday 3 Martini Lunch as they consider the significant fallout if Abdul El-Sayed wins the Michigan U.S. Senate primary today, growing concerns that the number of U.S. missile interceptors are dwindling, Massachusetts Rep. Seth Moulton caving on trans issues to keep his Senate hopes alive, and James Carville's criticism of far-left streamer Hasan Piker.First, Jim and Greg examine today's Michigan Democratic U.S. Senate primary, where DSA-backed Abdul El-Sayed is now expected to defeat Rep. Haley Stevens. They explain why an El-Sayed victory could improve Republican Mike Rogers' chances in November, while also exploring the major political consequences if El-Sayed ultimately wins the Senate seat.Next, they discuss a new study warning that the U.S. supply of missile interceptors is shrinking and could take years to replenish. With Iran constantly shifting from diplomacy to missile strikes and back, how long can the U.S. stay on its current course?Then, they slam Rep. Moulton for his groveling on trans issues. After the Republican wins in 2024, Moulton said he did not want his daughters getting run over by male or formerly male athletes. In last night's U.S. Senate debate, he apologized and promised always to be a staunch defender of trans activists. Jim says the Democrats have learned nothing.Finally, they react to longtime Democratic strategist James Carville saying he cannot stay in the same party as Hasan Piker. While Piker is worse than Carville, Jim explains that Carville's threat isn't all that significant.Please visit our great sponsors:QuoMoney is on the line. Always say hello with QUO.

Max Miller to drop out of his re-election bid, Miller posts a response to his various domestic abuse allegations with the worst possible defense.

Last week, Ralph, along with our constitutional law expert, Bruce Fein, organized another symposium in Washington DC on impeaching Donald Trump. On today's program, we play you highlights from that symposium with eight of the participants, each of whom are going to give listeners their perspective on why Donald Trump should be impeached even before the midterm elections.The rhetoric from many Democratic leaders has not kept up with the horror and the urgency of what [Donald Trump] is inflicting on America and the American people. He has moved very, very quickly to develop a fascist dictatorship embodying a kleptocratic corporate state that is marked by non-regulation, tax cuts for the wealthy, and tax escapes for the wealthy and major corporations, as well as expanded corporate welfare in the midst of personal and institutional two-way bribery and extortion. It's very important to punctuate the seriousness of what he's already done.Ralph NaderCelinda Lake is a political strategist and president of Lake Research Partners.What I love about polling is: conventional wisdom is wrong about 90% of the time, plus or minus 5%. Beltway conventional wisdom is wrong about 100% of the time, plus or minus 5%. So, “Everybody knows impeachment is unpopular.” No, it's not. It's very popular. A majority of people support it. “Everyone knows that it'll energize the other side.” No. The other side, to the extent they're going to be energized, they're already energized. We need to energize our side. We need to get our people out to vote… “Everyone knows it's very volatile.” No, it's not. Attitudes about impeachment track with job performance… And finally, “Everybody knows that nobody understands impeachment.” Well, frankly, voters understand it better than a lot of elected officials.Celinda LakeSuparna Reddy is the Senior Counsel for Free Speech For People.Let us be clear: Congress should impeach and remove Trump for each and every one of these hundreds of offenses. And we have a duty to record his every abuse of power. But in the process, we should not miss the forest for the trees— Trump is intentionally and systematically dismantling our democratic institutions to consolidate his own power and line his own pockets.Suparna ReddyRichard Painter is the S. Walter Richey professor of corporate law at the University of Minnesota Law School and was the chief White House ethics lawyer from 2005 to 2007.We have seen serious, indeed, tragic financial conflicts of interest in the executive branch never before seen in the history of our country—unless we look at our very early Presidents who held vast plantations with slave labor, a clear economic conflict of interest with their official duties. A conflict of interest shared by many Senators and Representatives and Justices of the Supreme Court, and indeed a tragic conflict of interest for the first eighty years of our history that ended only with a bloody civil war. But since then, we have not had at least a President who is embroiled in financial conflicts of interest with his official duties.Richard PainterDoug Bandow is a senior fellow at the Cato Institute, specializing in foreign policy and civil liberties.We need to make a persuasive argument for people, whether they like Donald Trump or not, to understand the Constitution transcends this President. The Constitution transcends future Presidents and future crises. We need to convince Americans across the political spectrum to stand with the rule of law, to stand with accountable government, to stand with an accountable executive, responsible legislatures. History tells us that one person making these decisions is not good. Plenty of authoritarians in the past have made these decisions and brought their countries to disaster.Douglas BandowErwin Chemerinsky is the Dean and Jesse H. Choper Distinguished Professor of Law at the University of California, Berkeley School of Law.We're now at a moment when the federal government is a threat to our rights. The actions of the Trump administration are unprecedented in the violations of the Constitution. And so I think it's crucial that state and local governments step in so as to protect rights. It's interesting that through American history, Federalism has always been equated, states' rights have always been equated with regressive policies… But now it's time for progressives to use states' rights and look for the opportunities for states to safeguard our constitutionErwin ChemerinskyKeira Havens is a United States Air Force veteran, a former scientist, and a longtime political activist. She is the executive director of Citizens' Impeachment.Everybody has agency. Everybody has a role that they can play. Everybody can take action. As a private citizen, I can say, “Man, there are a lot of things wrong with what's happening.” In fact, I wrote several articles of impeachment: tyranny, treason, obstruction of justice, and of course, corruption, right? Members of Congress have more power than that. They need to do more than say things. They have to take action. Courage is an action. It's what you do after you say the words that really matters. And every single member of Congress is able to take action. They are able to introduce articles of impeachment, and they are refusing.Keira HavensJessica Denson is a former Trump staffer and founder of the Removal Coalition.The American people (and particularly Democratic primary voters) are looking for fighters. For God's sake, what could you do better than to exert the power that you have—this one privilege in the House, Rule 9, that gives any member of the Congress, including the minority, the ability to force a vote any time. Why would you sit on that? Why would you wait? Instead, in my activism, I've had to resort to relying on literally one Congressman. This is so pathetic. He is a dear friend, and I am so grateful for him. But to this day, I think it is pathetic that I have to rely on one Congressman to bring forth articles of impeachment and force votes, and that's Representative Green.Jessica DensonNews 7/31/26* Our top stories this week have to do with the Democratic National Committee. Several stories have recently come out about DNC Chair Ken Martin, ranging from interpersonal issues to his utter failure to raise money for the Democratic Party. The most stunning example of this comes from NOTUS, which reports that Martin “put [the DNC's] physical headquarters up for collateral last year in order to obtain a $15 million line of credit to help invest in off-year elections.” While the party has used this mechanism before, it underlines the gaping disparity between the DNC, which is currently over $2 million in debt compared to the Republican National Committee (RNC), which can boast $128.5 million cash on-hand.* Compounding the issues of the already cash-strapped DNC, the New Republic reports the Democratic National Committee was scammed out of nearly $29,000 by an email from someone pretending to be Chair Ken Martin last year. DNC spokesperson Mia Ehrenberg is quoted saying “The DNC takes seriously our duty to protect the funds provided to us by millions of patriotic Americans chipping in to fund our mission…this was a one-off mistake that was promptly caught and addressed, and no similar issues have occurred since.” That said, only $7,000 worth of this money has been recovered. As TNR puts it, “This has all been very embarrassing. Martin can't raise money, can't keep money, and can't unite the base under the big tent' he likes to talk about.” Martin may also be facing an outright rebellion led by party insiders.* One surprising proposal to this effect is coming from a very unlikely source. The Hill reports veteran Democratic strategist James Carville, while tearing into Martin, opened the door to former DNC Vice-Chair David Hogg taking the reins. Carville said the DNC appears “dysfunctional” and that the committee needs to “figure out a way maybe they could be somewhat relevant,” adding that “If David Hogg wants to take it over, I ain't stopping you…Go ahead, man, I don't really care.” This is a stark turnabout from Carville's position on Hogg when the latter was in DNC leadership; back then, Carville dismissed him as “a contemptible little twerp.” In an interview, Hogg highlighted this exact reversal, while simultaneously saying that he did not want to lead the crumbling Democratic Party organization. Ben Wikler, the former Wisconsin Democratic Party Chair who challenged Ken Martin in 2025 has also resisted calls to take over the DNC, with rumors circulating that he is gearing up to run for Senate in the Badger State next cycle. While pressure continues to mount on Martin, alternative leadership remains elusive.* Speaking of lackluster leadership, Sources Say News reports Capitol CNCT has launched The Scoop which they describe as “a confidential rating system that lets current and former Hill staffers weigh in on the members and offices they have worked for.” As one might imagine, some reviews are extremely scathing. This piece cites one that reads, “Leadership is abusive. Lies about promotions and bonuses…This place will leach at your mental health like a vampire…Beware.” Sources Say highlights the fact that “Unlike most workplaces, Congress has no HR department, which means bad behavior by members and senior staff can go unreported and unchecked for years.” The new site verifies that the posters are or were real employees of these offices, but keeps their names anonymous to protect them from retaliation.* In more news from Congress, POLITICO reports Maryland Representative and House Judiciary Committee ranking member Jamie Raskin is launching a new investigation into Jeffrey Epstein, this time focusing on whether the deceased sex offender and financier acted as an unregistered foreign agent. In a letter to Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, and Director of National Intelligence Jay Clayton, Raskin writes that “Jeffrey Epstein never registered as a foreign agent…Yet numerous recently released documents now show he acted aggressively on behalf of multiple foreign governments, including several with interests adverse to the United States, in order to influence policies of the first Trump Administration.” The declassified files reveal that Epstein “offered to serve as a conduit between Saudi Arabia and members of the Trump administration, consulted with Russian officials on engaging with the president and advised former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak.” This inquiry is likely to raise fresh questions about not only Epstein's role working on behalf of foreign governments, but his possible connections with intelligence and espionage organizations including the CIA and Mossad.* Other progressive members of Congress, led by Congresswoman Ilhan Omar, have issued a formal response to a new Trump administration report on Cuba. These members interpret this report – which claims that the tiny Caribbean nation of 10 million people has “waged a sustained campaign” to “conquer” the United States and is backing “left-wing terrorism on American soil” – is in fact an instrument the administration plans to use to persecute “Trump's perceived political enemies.” Omar, joined by Representatives Jim McGovern, Delia Ramirez, Rashida Tlaib, AOC and more, contend that Trump is “hell-bent on taking America back 70 years to the height of Cold War McCarthyism, when hawkish foreign policy was paired with unsubstantiated accusations of communist subversion and political repression against dissidents at home.” The administration report singled out several organizations and activists, including the National Lawyers Guild, Hasan Piker, and campus activist Isra Hirsi, daughter of Congresswoman Omar. This from Common Dreams.* In more news from the left, POLITICO reports Donavan McKinney – who is challenging incumbent Congressman Shri Thanedar in Detroit – picked up a major batch of endorsements this week from members of the Congressional Black Caucus. These new endorsers include Representatives Steven Horsford, the former chair of the CBC, along with Lateefah Simon and Ayanna Pressley. These endorsements, particularly that of Congressman Horsford, are notable because Thanedar retains the support of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and his deputies, Representatives Pete Aguilar and Katherine Clark. McKinney said he was “honored” by these endorsements, adding that he “[looks] forward to working alongside these incredible leaders to pass critical legislation to protect voting rights, get big money out of our politics, and ensure all families have access to the resources they need to not just survive, but to truly thrive.” McKinney's primary will be held on August 4th, along with the more closely watched Senate primary between progressive Abdul El-Sayed and his moderate, establishment-backed opponent Haley Stevens.* Meanwhile, in New York City, Mayor Zohran Mamdani continues to fulfill campaign promises at an astonishing rate. First, Forbes reports that Mamdani has officially introduced a $124.7 billion city budget which includes funding for five city-run grocery stores which will sell staple foods at a 30% discount compared to private grocery stores. These staples are set to include produce, dairy, bread, select meat and seafood, and approximately 20 other products. Being city-owned, these stores will not have to pay rent or property taxes, ensuring they can operate more cheaply than their competitors in the private sector. This piece notes that similar experiments in smaller cities like Baldwin, Florida, and Erie, Kansas proved unsustainable financially, while proposals in Chicago and Kansas City struggled to get off the ground. There is reason to believe New York will prove a different matter entirely, but that remains to be seen. At the same time, Jacobin reports Mamdani is launching a new initiative called “Talk to Tenants,” which will “send volunteers door-to-door in buildings with chronic housing code violations, connecting renters with organizing resources, neighborhood organizations, and training on tenants' rights and how to build tenant associations.” This effort will be led by the Office of Mass Engagement in partnership with the Office to Protect Tenants. It is extremely encouraging to see Mamdani utilizing a varied array of tools at his disposal – including both direct action by the city as on grocery stores or using city resources to promote the formation of non-governmental organizing efforts – in order to achieve his vision of a just and affordable American metropolis.* In more troubling, if not surprising, news, the Wall Street Journal is out with a new report finding that the Department of Justice is giving a green light to corporate criminals. The Journal cites examples ranging from Alibaba to Boeing and EagleBank to Abbott Laboratories where the Trump DOJ “declined to charge companies even when prosecutors thought executives or managers were involved in the wrongdoing.” This follows from directives given by Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche, who has “said prosecutors shouldn't view prosecuting companies as their goal and should instead focus on holding individual wrongdoers accountable.” This piece cites a December speech by Blanche in which he stated that “Companies don't go to jail, people do.” Yet, it seems that under the Trump Justice Department, neither do.* Finally, in more corporate news, the antitrust lawsuit filed by over a dozen state attorneys general has at least temporarily succeeded in halting the mega-merger between Warner Bros. Discovery and the Ellisons' media conglomerate, Paramount Skydance. After the lawsuit was filed, a federal judge in Oakland ordered a pause on the deal, and since then, the Ellisons themselves have agreed to put the merger “on ice” pending the outcome of the trial, Variety reports. This piece also highlights the private sentiments of anonymous Warner Bros. executives who apparently hope that the deal hits a “legal landmine” and is ultimately “nixed.” However, in an internal memo, David Ellison maintained that “the facts and the law are on our side, and a full hearing will demonstrate why the plaintiffs' arguments should not prevail.”This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

In part one of Red Eye Radio with Gary McNamara and Eric Harley, Democratic political strategist James Carville on Sunday said David Hogg, former Democratic National Committee vice chair, should succeed current chair Ken Martin, calling the DNC “dysfunctional.” The report alleges that Martin has been under pressure amid financial woes within the party and is “gripped by fear that he will lose his job and relying on a vanishingly small circle of people he trusts.” Also Dr. Anthony Fauci is set to testify before a GOP-led Senate panel today, days after hundreds of pages of his COVID-19 pandemic-era diary entries were made public / Zohran Mamdani implements his radical agenda / audio from Democratic Senator John Fetterman calling out Mamdani and the DSA / and breaking down the agenda of the DSA.

In a move that wasn't on our bingo card, democrat strategist James Carville says the DNC is so woeful, its ousted vice-chair, David Hogg, should boot chair Ken Martin and take over. Wait until you hear Hogg's response. Alan Dershowitz says not only are Trump attorneys looking to expunge his impeachments, he's on the team of lawyers! Rob Finnerty from Newsmax reads his favorite Fauci diary entries and plays relevant video of his disastrous and deadly decisions.    

Every story this week is the same story: powerful men demanding that you prove yourself to them while refusing to prove a goddamn thing to you.Prove your citizenship, in person, on paper, to register to vote. Prove you condemned the right slogans loudly enough to be allowed at a memorial in your own city. Meanwhile a sitting United States Senator cannot be produced on camera after 43 days, the Pentagon subtracts fifteen wounded Americans from its own ledger and offers a duty officer who is never at the desk, and the President of the United States announces a fourth term in a red hat and then says he is only kidding. This episode covers the Weekend at Mitchie's Counter and the EMS audio nobody wants to talk about, the SAVE Act as a pre-written excuse rather than a bill, four female reporters attacked in six days, a six hour Truth Social bender that produced a time travel epic and a wall against Canadian air, three hundred families petitioning to bar the first Muslim mayor of New York from Ground Zero, the debut of a brand new recurring segment with original music, James Carville nominating from his recovery bed the kid his party threw out an airlock, and Nick Turse's reporting on a casualty count that runs backwards. Reality Check is the one that will get Robin yelled at: the policies are popular, the vehicle cannot carry them, and the reason is machinery, not messaging....the DSABecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/we-saw-the-devil-unfiltered-political-analysis--4433638/support.Website: http://www.wesawthedevil.comPatreon: http://www.patreon.com/wesawthedevilRobin's Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/robin_wstdTwitter: http://www.twitter.com/WeSawtheDevilInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/wesawthedevilpodcast.TikTok: tiktok.com/@wesawthedevilpolitics

President Trump encourages all Americans who want the SAVE America Act passed - and we do - to call Senator John Thune's office and ask that he do his job. This whole mess brings into sharper focus - and for more voters - the weakling DNA of RINOs. New Jersey's governor blames illegals being registered to vote and voting in her state on President Trump and, if you can believe it, Putin. More liberal "influencers" including James Carville urge democrats to pass the legislation and move on or else be beaten like a drum in November.  

James and Al raise awareness about the effect of misinformation and voter ID laws, call for strong leadership from the ground up, and weigh election predictions and candidate quality.  Then, they welcome Emmy-winning journalist turned congressional candidate for PA-10, Janelle Stelson, to discuss her campaign against Scott Perry.  They explore the challenges Democrats face in the district, her focus on healthcare, corruption, and the economy, how to address lies from the Right, and the need for change that targets the actual desires that constituents share with the candidates.Email your questions to James and Al at politicswarroom@gmail.com or tweet them to @politicon.  Make sure to include your city– we love to hear where you're from!
