Trump's deportation plans have always faced a contradiction: he couldn't deport millions of immigrants without crippling essential industries and Republican business whose owners supported him. So Trump started granting exceptions; but that was before Saturday, the biggest one-day political protest in American history, protesting against him. On that same day, nobody came to his birthday parade, and in the middle of that night, Trump made an announcement on Truth Social, targeting blue cities – Harold Meyerson explains.Also: Saturday's ‘No Kings' protests, with 5 million people at 2100 events, was the largest single day of protest in American history.

We open the show with a piece from Christopher Rufo, adding credence to the theory I talked about yesterday, about intentionally seeding the Federal government with people who are mentally unwell. General Flynn revealed that whistleblowers are coming out of the wood-work and criminality is going to be highlighted very soon, starting with former FBI Director James Comey. Rep. Tim Burchett (R-TN) wanted to know if USAID money went to any other terrorist organizations besides the Taliban. Turns out we have funded dozens of them. When asked about safeguards, you will shocked to hear, as one example, how we funneled $2.1 billion to Hamas since October 7, 2023. We should not be surprised, given the corruption inside USAID. In fact, Sharyl Attkisson gives us a soundbite where she has been reporting about such corruption for many years. As further example, seems there has been over $160 million USAID dollars that have been funneled into an NGO, benefiting Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD). Even worse, it seems Rep. Hakeem Jeffries's (D-NY) campaign may have Smurfed his supporters to the tune of over $1.1 million dollars. And we have discovered more USAID funds flowing to Norm Eisen's own daughter's 501(c)4, Tamar Eisen. The good news is Chief Justice Roberts has put a stop to the activist lower court judges, allowing President Trump to continue his pause on money flowing out of USAID. We discussed the astroturfing PsyOp used to create the fake narrative that MAGA voters are now suffering from buyers remorse. This was tried on Speaker Mike Johnson, who blew it out of the water. DHS Secretary Kristi Noem has announced the creation of a new site to register illegal aliens. Those who self-register will get the aid of the US government in sending them back home, where they can then apply to return legally. And speaking of the border, Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) reminds us of the big lie both Kamala Harris and Joe Biden were selling about not being able to secure it. As we wrap up, we introduce you to Leah Greenberg and Ezra Levin who are funding the agitators to infiltrate GOP town halls and flood their phone lines.

As Politico puts it: “Panic is starting to set in.” To gauge how serious this is, we talked to veteran organizer Leah Greenberg, co-founder of the progressive group Indivisible, about whether on-the-ground enthusiasm and organizing strength constitute a hidden advantage for Democrats that the media is missing.

The runaway favorite to win the Republican presidential nomination will soon be under felony indictment in three, or maybe four jurisdictions, but most leading Democrats are withholding comment on Donald Trump's mounting legal problems. Joe Biden has reportedly ordered his campaign and the Democratic National Committee to keep quiet about it, even as Republicans work overtime to try to muddy Biden's far more ethical record of conduct. Why aren't Democrats doing more to emphasize character contrast between Biden and Trump? Are voters too mired in their personal circumstances to care which politicians are corrupt or cruel? Do appeals to their material well being, rather than appeals to morality, decency, or ethics reach more people? Faiz Shakir, the chair of Bernie Sanders's 2020 campaign and founder of More Perfect Union, and Leah Greenberg, an executive director of Indivisible, join host Brian Beutler to hash it out. Should Democrats (other than Joe Biden himself) be more engaged in salacious infowars with the right? Or should they leave that kind of red meat politics to Republicans while building a singular economic policy appeal?
