Podcasts about The Mad King

Where've I been?  Right here...I'm rather boring that way.  Much of America is just surviving, not thriving.  Are they blaming the correct people for their lack of success?  Some are, most aren't.Happy to be back.-T

Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles unpack another week of chaos inside Trumpworld, from a judge forcing Donald Trump to strip his name from the Kennedy Center to a court challenge threatening his controversial $1.8 billion IRS settlement fund. They dig into Trump's newly disclosed weight gain, his obsession with public enemies, and why Wolff believes targeting figures like E. Jean Carroll matters more to Trump than winning in court. The pair also explore the growing influence of Todd Blanche, the fallout from the Epstein files controversy, and signs that Trump may already be turning on J.D. Vance as a potential successor. Along the way, they re-open the book on Usha Vance's baffling podcast, the deepening Iran crisis that Trump can't seem to escape, and the reality-show logic that continues to drive the presidency.

Joanna Coles welcomes back Kurt Andersen to dissect what he argues may be Donald Trump's most unhinged week yet, from surreal AI depictions casting himself as Jesus to a deepening spiral of contradictions, conspiracies, and political theater that even longtime observers find startling. Drawing on decades of watching Trump up close, Andersen revives his now-infamous “Venn diagram” of lies, ignorance, and instability—warning that the overlap is expanding in real time—while unpacking the bizarre collision of religion, ego, and power now shaping the MAGA movement. The conversation covers the Pope's unexpectedly deft pushback to the growing discomfort inside Trump's own coalition, before zeroing in on RFK Jr.'s chaotic tenure, public health fallout, and a trail of denials that mirror Trump's own reality-warping playbook. As cabinet figures maneuver, allies hedge, and whispers of exits and fractures grow louder, Andersen paints a picture of a political universe edging toward something far more volatile than spectacle.

“Politics is the systematic organisation of hatreds.” — Henry Adams, quoted by Don Watson America is celebrating its 250th anniversary this July. In The Shortest History of the United States, Australian writer Don Watson has squeezed these 250 years into 60,000 words. Beginning with Mad King George, he ends with Mad King Donald. In between: the Puritan North, the plantation South, the miracle of the Constitution, the nightmare of slavery, the Civil War, the Gilded Age, two world wars, and the long arc from republic to empire that Americans have never quite admitted to themselves. Watson argues that America is a profoundly idea-driven place — unlike any other country on earth. The Bible and the Enlightenment documents of the revolution set the bar impossibly high. The Declaration of Independence, the preamble to the Constitution, the Gettysburg Address, the Second Inaugural: these are documents of aspiration that no group of people could ever live up to. Which is precisely why the American moral minefield has never been cleared. The greatest American politicians — Lincoln, FDR — are those who managed to cobble together the most improbable coalitions. The most profound American contradiction — building a country of liberty on the backs of 600 slaves — is one they were always aware of but could never move on from, because the republic couldn't survive without the South. The republic always came first. Even Calhoun, ardently pro-slavery, said he would hang any man who tried to split it. Is Trump different? Watson doesn't think so — not fundamentally. Trump is a chip off the old American block: a huckster, a Roy Cohn-formed Queens opportunist, playing the same game of racial pot-stirring and imperial presidency that has always lurked beneath the surface. The US was founded out of the overthrow of a mad, tyrannical king. From one mad king to another. Six words. The shortest history of America. Five Takeaways •       Eden with Savages to Remove: Watson begins in Australia, where he lives, to establish a point of contrast. Every new-world country has an appalling history of violence toward indigenous peoples. But America is different in one key respect: it found extraordinary land. Lewis and Clark head west and discover the Great Plains, cross the Rockies, see the great rivers, and return to the Mississippi. There is always somewhere to push west. It's Eden — with some savages to remove, who are easily accounted for in biblical terms. This is the first and most consequential American story: a cornucopia that licensed everything that came after. •       The Bar Was Set Impossibly High: America is exceptional in being an idea-driven place. The Bible is there. The Enlightenment documents are there: the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, the Gettysburg Address, the Second Inaugural. These are documents of incredible aspiration that no group of people is ever going to live up to. “A more perfect union” drives them on and damns them simultaneously. Watson's formulation: America is a moral minefield precisely because it set the bar so high. Every infraction of that rhetorical overlay becomes a scandal. Tocqueville grasped it in the 1830s, having barely left the East Coast. His observations are more relevant now than when he wrote them — which means either he was a genius, or America hasn't fundamentally changed in two hundred years. Probably both. •       The Republic Always Came First: A crucial distinction Watson draws: the Civil War was not fought to preserve democracy. It was fought to preserve the republic. Even Calhoun — ardently pro-slavery — said he would hang any man who tried to split it. Manifest destiny, Watson argues, lies latent within the founding: Jefferson and Madison both said the republic couldn't survive without pushing west. West takes you to the Pacific, and beyond. It's an empire from way back — but one that has never recognised itself as an imperial power. And a republic, Watson notes, that has always been an elected monarchy: the powers of the American executive exceed those of any existing European monarchy, and can be expanded, as recent events demonstrate, pretty much at will. •       Trump Is a Chip off the Old Block: The question: is Trump different, or has he always existed? Watson's answer: he's a profoundly American individual, a huckster shaped by Roy Cohn and Queens, who is playing an old game. The US was founded out of the overthrow of a mad, tyrannical king. The “no kings” rallies of recent times are interesting precisely because the struggle against a monarchical presidency has been perpetual. Watson's Gatsby comparison: Trump is Gatsby without the romance — born to be a huckster, not a dreamer. Henry Adams wrote in the 1880s that politics is the systematic organisation of hatreds. That has not changed. Nor has the deep-sea-fish quality of ordinary American life, insulated from the world beyond its own provincial borders. •       Mark Twain, FDR, and the Miracle of Cohesion: Watson's favourite American: Mark Twain. Beautiful voice. The irony. Huckleberry Finn as a seminal novel. Anti-imperialist in the end. Got his politics pretty much right. Among presidents: FDR, who saved and modernised the United States, who believed political leaders can't afford to stand still — you have to stay ahead of the regressive and self-interested forces. Watson's broader verdict: American history is a miracle of cohesion. You can read it as wild turbulence, or you can marvel that it holds together at all. Filaments of goodwill. Recognition of the necessity of holding together. Always threatening to fall apart. Never quite does. About the Guest Don Watson is an Australian author and screenwriter, former speechwriter to Prime Minister Paul Keating.

The President of the United States has officially gone mad. That can be the only conclusion after Trump's genocidal threats this week to destroy the entire country of Iran, before announcing a two week ceasefire. This week Alex looks at the consequences of the mad king's actions both abroad and at home. First, she speaks to Mohamed Arrachedi, the Arab world and Iran network coordinator for the International Transport Workers' Federation, to hear about the dire conditions thousands of seafarers are living in while they remain trapped on ships because of the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Then she speaks to Brian Tyler Cohen, host of the No Lie podcast, to talk through the growing chorus of MAGA voices turning against Trump, and the movement to use the 25th amendment to unseat him.

The GOP and mad king Trump are succeeding at destroying the US. President Pampers blathered a war crime on “Truth” threatening the destruction of Iran’s civilization. Iran closed the Strait of Hormuz during the doubled-sided ceasefire. Adults in Cali blocked a baseless voter fraud investigation. A MAGAT influencer wanted Lindsey to be thrown from a building in Iran. The Dems scored another win with the Wisconsin’s Supremes. Man-baby and GOP are set to crap their diapers in the midterms. The worst FLOTUS ever brought the Epstein files back. DJT had to hold onto his Nazi wife so he wouldn’t tumble down the stairs. Fascist Vance said he didn’t know anything about the Pentagon threats against the Vatican. Allegedly, there are generals refusing crazy orders from rapist-in-chief.

Protect Your Retirement with a PHYSICAL Gold and/or Silver IRA https://www.sgtreportgold.com/ CALL( 877) 646-5347 - You Can Trust Noble Gold   On the eve of Trump's declaration of the potential destruction of "the whole civilization" of Iran in a wholly illegal war under the US Constitution and international law, I wanted to get some very important facts on the historical record and discuss the madness of the "king" with attorney Todd Callender. While the Q crowd and the knee benders all cheerlead the deaths of innocents because they were born in Iran, these are the things to consider from a spiritual and moral perspective... thanks for tuning in.   Speak FREELY at CloutHub: https://new.clouthub.com/ https://old.bitchute.com/video/GFE2sMKQapjv/

Yesterday, we were 90 minutes away from the 8:00 PM ET deadlinewhere Trump threatened that a "whole civilization will die." While Iranians formed human chains around their power plants, the world braced for a nuclear-capable escalation. But at the final hour, we got a 14-day ceasefire and a pivot to what Trump is calling the "Golden Age of the Middle East."   In this video, you'll learn the Iran 10-point plan that Trump has called a "workable basis." We're looking at whether this is a path to peace, or if the "Mad King" just realized he's cornered. Is the US actually paying Iran for the privilege of leaving? We break it all down!   Don't let up. The bombs have paused, but the madness hasn't. Our representatives are on a two-week vacation while the future of global security is being traded for a headline. We need the 25th Amendment or a War Powers Act invocation today to ensure this isn't just a reset timer for more horror.  

Sadly, this isn't a podcast about one of my favorite versions of a sandwich (come at me, bro), but rather the Trump Always Chickens Out phenomenon.  How long does it all last?  What are we supposed to be focused on?  What is truly important and in what amounts?So many questions, so little courage.Let's see what comes of it.-T

In this episode, Alex reacts to Donald Trump's Easter rant referencing the Strait of Hormuz, unpacking the geopolitical implications and the tone of his remarks. Alex draws comparisons to Game of Thrones, suggesting Trump's rhetoric echoes the instability of a “mad king” archetype, fueling concern among critics. The episode also explores growing public chatter around the Twenty-fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution as a framework for addressing presidential fitness. Overall, Alex frames the moment as a flashpoint in the ongoing debate over leadership, rhetoric, and constitutional safeguards.

At this point if you're in the US military you have a moral obligation to start refusing orders. Desert. Become a conscientious objector. Ideally, get everyone together and launch a full-scale military coup. We're in "Mad King" territory. Someone's gotta do what needs to be done. Reading by Tim Foley.

Does Trump's unhinged Truth Social Easter post threatening Iran's civilian infrastructure prove he's just a Mad King now? In this high-stakes breakdown, Nick Thompson discusses the unhinged reality of President Trump's Easter Sunday ultimatum to Iran. While the United States looked forward to a peaceful holiday, the President took to Truth Social to threaten "Power Plant Day" and "Bridge Day" to explicitly target civilian infrastructure in what can only be described as a "Mad King" rant.  Nick exposes the moving goalposts of a conflict with no clear mission while roasting the cowardice of a "war-by-tweet" strategy that treats global security like a reality TV cliffhanger. This segment is a call to action for every American to look past the manufactured narrative and hold a "pathetic" Congress accountable for ceding its constitutional power to declare war. It's time to stop the "chaos tax" at the pump and demand a leadership mandate that prioritizes human dignity and global stability over unhinged provocations. Core Topics Discussed The Easter Sunday Ultimatum: Analyzing the expletive-laden threat to plunge millions of civilians into darkness via "Power Plant Day." The "Allah" Provocation: The bizarre cognitive dissonance of using a religious phrase of peace to sign off on a promise of "Hell." Goalposts on Wheels: Why the Tuesday 8:00 PM deadline is the fifth time the administration has moved the finish line since March. The 20-Year Nuclear Myth: Deconstructing the 2003/2005 fatwa against WMDs that the media and administration continue to ignore. The Congressional Vacuum: Why the 47-53 Senate block and the 212-219 House failure represent a total surrender of War Powers.   Key Takeaways   Chaos is not Strategy: Running a war via Truth Social destroys international credibility and risks an avoidable World War III. The "Chaos Tax": How Trump's "if they rise, they rise" attitude toward $4.00 gas prices reveals a total disconnect from the American worker. The Blockade Irony: We are threatening "Hell" to open a Strait that is only closed because we and Israel poked the bear on February 28th. A Call to Activation: The 25th Amendment is political theater; the real solution is for citizens to jam the Congressional switchboards and demand a return to constitutional law.   Relevant Links: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/apr/05/trump-iran-threats-politician-reactions https://www.britannica.com/event/2026-Iran-war    Our Mission Eyes Wide Open is a space for honest communication.

SEND ME A TEXT MESSAGE NOWSomething is happening again in Washington, and if you've seen this movie before, you already know how it starts. The names may change, the headlines may shift, but the pattern? That's becoming impossible to ignore. Especially when you compare what's happening now under Trump's second administration to his first administration.At first glance, it might look like isolated moves. A decision here, a shake-up there. But when you step back and look at the bigger picture, it starts to feel a lot less random and a lot more deliberate.Think back to Trump's first administration. The exits, the pressure, the revolving door of people in positions that were supposed to bring stability. Now look at Trump's second administration and ask yourself… does any of this feel familiar?High-level departures, sudden firings, and a growing sense that loyalty matters more than anything else. When you line it all up, it stops looking random and starts looking like a repeat of something we've already seen.What makes this even more unsettling isn't just what's happening. It's how little reaction there seems to be from the people who are supposed to react the loudest. That silence speaks volumes.Trump's first administration… we've seen this before. Now Trump's second administration… déjà vu all over again.UPDATE: My family and I could still use your support.If you enjoy my podcast, if you find it informative, please click the link below.

Fatima Bhutto is an acclaimed journalist and novelist. She is the author of the novels The Runaways and The Shadow of the Crescent Moon. Her nonfiction works include New Kings of the World and Songs of Blood and Sword. Fatima Bhutto's new book is The Hour of the Wolf: A Memoir. Her essays and other work have been featured in New Statesman, The Daily Beast, The Guardian, and The Nation. Fatima's life has been shaped by political violence. She is the granddaughter of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, the Pakistani prime minister arrested and executed in the 1970s. She is the niece of Benazir Bhutto, twice prime minister of Pakistan before being assassinated in 2007. Her father, Murtaza Bhutto, was killed when Fatima was just 14 years old. Fatima counsels that yes, this dystopic world is profoundly broken — but we need to find solace, community and strength from one another to make it a better place. She warns that ignoring injustice and evil only provides the illusion of temporary safety and that we must confront such dark forces even if it is terrifying and comes at a great cost. Fatima reflects on the ethics of bringing new life into such a broken world and the importance of healthy relationships, love, and community. Chauncey does some public thinking about why everything feels so much harder right now. The Age of Trump. The war and destruction in the Middle East. The Orwellian assault on reality and truth. And why we have no choice but to endure and soldier on. He ponders whether we are lost and spinning in the Twilight Zone and draws on Rod Serling's wisdom to find his way out. And he shares Fintan O'Toole's essential new essay on Donald Trump as the Mad King and his war against Iran. WHERE CAN YOU FIND ME?

Ian, Helen, Andy and special guest Richard Brooks discuss the USA entering its 'insane absolute monarch' era, the ongoing mayhem in the world's oil and gas markets, and check in on the financial arrangements of 'Little Donald', AKA Nigel Farage, and his Reform UK colleagues. 

Taoiseach Michel Martin has been meeting US president Donald Trump as part of the annual St Patrick's Day pageantry. Martin once again faced the challenge of outlining Ireland's positions on issues from tariffs to wars in Ukraine, Gaza and Iran while maintaining his personal dignity and without antagonising Trump to Ireland's detriment. It was no easy task, with the US president criticising UK prime minister Keir Starmer, attacking Europe on its migration and energy policies and misgendering President Catherine Connolly. So how did Martin do? Pat Leahy reports from Washington.Would you like to receive daily insights into world events delivered to your inbox?

Well, another republican president has started another war in the middle east.  Or maybe it was Israel?  No story told in public regarding this "special military operation" (this is what you are required to call it unless you're the mad king or his drunken secretary of war) makes much sense.  So what do we know for certain?  There's a lot of aerial bombing/strikes and it's all extremely expensive.At least the department of homeland security is doing a horrible job....yeah, I said it.Stay safe, stay strong,-T

How do you respond to Trump's "State of the Union" address when he's talking about a union that only exists for the Mad King and his cronies?  Well, start with calling it like it is:  lies, projection, and corruption.Oh, and bring your broom and mop, because we've got a lot to clean up.Love, -T

So the supreme court actually put a check on the Mad King.  Tariffs, as Donny Dementia uses them, are unconstitutional and cannot stand.  What comes next?  What does it mean to the rest of us?Prepare for the meltdown....Stay strong, stay safe, we're in this together.-T

We moeten het maar met hem doen in ons koude kikkerlandje: Koning Willem-Alexander. Hij kan er natuurlijk ook niets aan doen dat zijn moeder Koningin der Nederlanden was toen hij werd geboren. In ons land wordt je dan automatisch de Koning als je dat dan als eerste doet en zeg nou eerlijk, op een aantal rare snoepreisjes naar Griekenland en wat ongelukkige versprekingen tijdens staatsbezoeken na, gaat het WimLex vrij goed af als Koning der Nederlanden… Heel anders is dat bij de huidige president van de Verenigde Staten want met het claimen van de Nobelprijs voor de Vrede, het bedreigen van bondgenoten en het opleggen van buitensporige handelstarieven aan eenieder die niet voor je buigt, kan je wel stellen dat Donald Trump doet aan Mad-King-acties! De vergelijking tussen een gekke koning en Trump is niet heel gek. Vooral niet als je de MAGA-king vergelijkt met historisch gestoorde koningen en keizers als Nero, Karel de Zesde van Frankrijk.

The Supreme Court is about to rule on Donald Trump's tariffs, which lower courts deem illegal. But guess what: Trump himself has badly undermined his own case for them. He's claimed broad tariff powers by absurdly declaring trade deficits an economic emergency. But he keeps admitting to other rationales for them. In a crazed tirade in Davos, he said he threatened Switzerland with tariffs partly because a female leader's voice annoyed him. He unleashed a long rant in a letter threatening Brazil with higher tariffs over its treatment of ally Jair Bolsonaro. And in another tirade, he threatened to impose tariffs on European countries opposing his quest to seize Greenland. We talked to MS NOW's Steve Benen, who identified this pattern in a good piece. We discuss all these threats, the GOP's complicity with the Mad King's whims, and what it'll mean for our country if the high court greenlights such obviously absurd abuses of power.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

The Supreme Court is about to rule on Donald Trump's tariffs, which lower courts deem illegal. But guess what: Trump himself has badly undermined his own case for them. He's claimed broad tariff powers by absurdly declaring trade deficits an economic emergency. But he keeps admitting to other rationales for them. In a crazed tirade in Davos, he said he threatened Switzerland with tariffs partly because a female leader's voice annoyed him. He unleashed a long rant in a letter threatening Brazil with higher tariffs over its treatment of ally Jair Bolsonaro.

Donald Trump is increasingly insane - period!Nick Cohen talks with U.S commentator and author Claire Berlinski about the increasingly dangerous and insane presidency of Donald Trump which Claire sees as a pattern of national sabotage rather than mere incompetence, impulsiveness, or corruption, highlighting the destructive impact of his policies on US global power and alliances.The last week has shocked the U.S's one-time allies with his reckless threats against Denmark and Greenland, his abandonment of NATO, the filthy gang of tyrants and international gangsters he's corralled into his absurd and corrupt "Board of Peace", the stupid and offensive insults he's levelled against the allied war dead and his ridiculous and insane rants.They explore recent events and developments in both the United States and Europe, including Trump's isolationist approach, Britain's response to US actions, and the implications of Trump's statements and actions on American power and credibility. Claire expresses deep concern about the dangers posed by Trump's presidency, particularly regarding nuclear weapons, and explored the potential for Europe to assert its power by reducing its economic and military dependence on the U.S.Reckless Republicans fail to act against the Mad King of the U.S.Claire says, "This isn't just one madman. This is a significant segment of the American public and they don't show much sign of understanding what they've done. Having seen that this can happen, how does anyone put the faith in the United States that was granted to the United States, almost unthinkingly by many nations to the point that Britain completely united its defence and security with American institutions?Claire adds "I can't explain how an entire political party could be hostage to this madman in the way that they are, even to the point that they are forfeiting their own children's security and futures."Donald Trump represents an existential threat to every human beingClairs says, "It's overwhelmingly obvious that this is. An existential danger to every living human being. Donald Trump has the power to launch as many as 4,000 nuclear weapons unilaterally. He requires no one's permission, and if he gives the order, should do it. His, his subordinates are, are, the law says they have to execute it."Read all about it!Claire Berlinski @Claire Berlinski is an American author and commentator based in Paris. Claire's regular Substack column The Cosmopolitan Globalist - is a must read for anyone looking for keen analysis of insight into the continuing Trump Trauma in the U.S. - a crisis which has serious implications for all of us and the current world order. Claire also co-hosts a podcast - Critical Conditions - with Dan PerryNick Cohen's @NichCohen4 latest Substack column Writing from London on politics and culture from the UK and beyond.

The Red Comet burned brightly and briefly, bringing war and woe and prophecy. The life and reign of King Jaehaerys II is similarly described - short but meaningful. The last Blackfyre, the Ghost of High Heart, the Prince that was Promised. Not to mention the event that put him on the throne: Summerhall.

Following a tragic weekend, we got a hectic week of news.  From Whiskey Pete's war on "narcoterrorists" (not a thing) to Brainworm Bobby's war on science and medicine to the Mad King's war on truth and sanity, things have gotten downright exhausting.  The country is cruising down F$&K Around Avenue toward Find Out Boulevard.  What happens when we hit the intersection?  Pay attention to what happens next.Love,-T

Trump's use of his pardon power is downright crazy, and that's not even counting his rescue of a convicted drug kingpin. He's also sabotaging his own redistricting plans in Texas by pardoning Rep. Henry Cuellar, and wasting taxpayer money absolving a sports executive who was indicted by his own Justice Department earlier this year. Meanwhile, down in NOLA, two men with a Napoleon complex are unleashing misery of the psychic and economic kind on the city through its ICE and Border Patrol operation. Plus, someone needs to scour the immigration history of Phil Mickelson's family, and why is Tucker so obsessed with the gays? Sam Stein joins Tim Miller.

There was a big old off-cycle election yesterday in the USA...and according to the Mad King the results were due to his not being on the ballot and the shutdown is bad.  Apparently Mr. "I don't take responsibility for anything" is operating in full denial.  What else is new?I had a blast with this one!  Seriously!  Great mood!Love,-T

In this episode of Excess Returns, Matt Zeigler talks with macro strategist and author Remi Tetot, known as “The Mad King.” They explore how liquidity, policy, and narratives have reshaped markets over the last decade, why fundamentals have lost their grip, and how investors can adapt to a fractured global cycle. The conversation spans macro themes like fiscal dominance, housing, crypto, and AI — and ends with a deeper reflection on human capital, autonomy, and the behavioral side of markets.Topics covered:How liquidity replaced fundamentals as the market's main driverWhy investors must adapt to desynchronized global cyclesThe impact of debt, fiscal dominance, and government policy on marketsHousing as the next driver of the business cycleHow AI, robotics, and quantum computing are shaping the next growth waveThe maturation of crypto and what comes after the “altcoin season”Why narratives now drive price and how to read them effectivelyThe risks and opportunities in trading liquidity and fiscal policyThe cognitive and behavioral shifts driving modern investingProtecting human capital in the age of AI and automationTimestamps:00:00 Liquidity and the end of fundamentals06:17 Three continents, three policies, one fractured world12:20 Housing as the next driver of the cycle16:39 Crypto's evolution and fiscal dominance23:26 Portfolio positioning in a policy-driven market29:44 AI, human capital, and the risk to autonomy36:00 How narratives shape markets and investment themes52:00 Building a macro narrative and market framework58:00 Lessons for investors and closing thoughts

The madness of King Donald arrived in the state of Georgia and has morphed into a Frankenstein's monster that threatens to devour the Republican Party and doom their electoral chances in a pair of Senate run off races to be held January 5th. After releasing the Kraken of conspiracy and unsupported allegations of election fraud which saw members of their own party face death threats and online harassment, Trump proxies are now apoplectic at their own lawyers for advocating that voters boycott the election until these allegations are settled. Republican Party Reptiles like Newt Gingrich, who eagerly jumped on the conspiracy bandwagon weeks ago, now find themselves back peddling furiously; trying to put the genie back in the bottle. But it's too late, leaving us to wonder, "has the whole world gone crazy?" Michael speaks with Law and Crime's Adam Klasfeld to get these answers and more in a revealing conversation about what's happening at the heart of these ridiculous lawsuits.
