Despite everything laid out in Project 2025, Trump 2.0 is a chaotic disaster. While it seems Trump and friends are trying to follow the script, they just can't seem to get anything right. Trump‘s tariff plan put the global economy in the dumpster and made him look like an amateur. His immigration policy, while slowing traffic at the border, has put him on a head-on collision course with the courts. Even his beloved Supreme Court allies are rolling their eyes at the bumbling Trump clown car. The move to cut government spending resulted in an on again off again firing spree, making it difficult for federal workers to function. From measles outbreaks to plane crashes to a ridiculous focus on retribution instead of tackling pressing matters, Trump's second term looks like a full on mess. John Aravosis will stop by to talk politics. You may know him from his wildly successful offerings AmeriBlog or The Aravosis Report on TikTok. We welcome journalists Michael Shure and Jim Avila to the show to recap this week in politics. Their insight, wisdom and witty banter make this a segment not to be missed. We'll pay a visit to our friends in Florida for a little levity on a Friday. Plus, The Culture Blaster Michael Snyder will slide in to share the best in streaming and movies in theaters.

UnPresidented: Creating change that empowers the Resistance

Republicans just forced the resignation of the #2 at the FBI, Andrew McCabe, and they're now gunning for deputy attorney general at the Department of Justice, Rod Rosenstein, all to undermine the FBI's investigation of Trump's collusion with Russia during the 2016 elections. If Trump and his Republican allies in Congress can get rid of the top professional staff at the FBI and DOJ, they will use their partisan replacements to undermine the Mueller probe and effectively undercut any effort to find out what Russia did and how we can stop it from happening again. This is the main topic of today's podcast with John Aravosis and Cliff Schecter. Finally, we finish with a discussion of gun control and gun safety.

On the heels of Hurricane Harvey's disaster in Texas, heartless Republicans in Congress are preparing to cut nearly $1 billion from America's disaster assistance programs in order to pay for Trump's racist wall. At the same time, Texas Republicans have made it harder for Texans to force insurance companies to make good on disaster claims; while 23 of 24 members of Texas' GOP congressional delegation voted against the Hurricane Sandy relief bill, meant to provide much-needed aid to people in the northeast. But now that their own constituents are dying, the GOP has suddenly found FEMA Jesus. John Aravosis discusses the hypocrisy.

Hurricane Harvey ravages Texas, so Donald Trump's first impulse was to pardon a racist "for the ratings." Then Trump flies to Texas, interfering with disaster relief, but getting a great photo opp of Melania mingling with the little people in stiletto heels (seriously). In our second half, we discuss the latest blockbuster news about Trump-Russia, including the revelation that during last year's presidential campaign Trump was secretly working on a deal to build a Trump Tower in Moscow, financed by the Russian government.

Melania Trump claims to be fluent in five languages (English, French, Italian, German and Slovenian). But is she really? John Aravosis, who actually does speak five languages (Spanish, French, Italian, Greek and English), looked into the issue, and what he found raises questions about just how well Melania Trump truly speaks French and Italian. Why does this matter? Because just this week, Donald Trump announced a new immigration policy whereby potential immigrants with skills, and fluency in English, will get favored treatment. So the issue of whether Melania Trump, America's most famous immigrant, even spoke English when she got here, and whether she's telling the truth about her overall language abilities, matters. Because her husband made it matter. And finally, this goes to the larger issue of this administration being one continuous ongoing lie. If they lie about the little stuff, imagine what they're doing with issues that really matter. Please subscribe to the UnPresidented Podcast on iTunes and leave us a review.

Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner, and US Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer, both agreed that the Russians didn't cost Hillary Clinton the election. Now, Kushner was saying this to protect Donald Trump's fragile ego -- Trump lives in terror of the notion that his presidency is illegitimate. But why would Schumer say such a thing? Because Schumer is thinking about the future, and the need for Democrats to come up with a coherent message and forward-looking proposals that go beyond being anti-Trump. In this episode, John Aravosis discusses Kushner's and Schumer's comments, and more generally, the need for Democrats to come up with a positive message for 2018.
