Today on Mea Culpa, I'm joined by Rick Wilson, Lincoln Project co-founder, political strategist, and author, to break down the fallout from the government shutdown.

Today on Mea Culpa, I'm joined by Michael Steele, former RNC Chair, MSNBC analyst, and host of The Michael Steele Podcast, for a blistering breakdown of Trump's latest authoritarian moves. We dig into his push to end the Senate filibuster, the demolition of the White House's East Wing to build his ballroom, and the GOP's complicity in his escalating power grab. Steele explains how the Supreme Court has become a political enforcement arm under Trump's shadow and how his own party has lost its moral compass. From the potential rollback of marriage equality to the normalization of authoritarian control, this episode sounds the alarm on the collapse of Republican restraint and the rise of a Trump America.

Listening back to my last Monday Milieu, I realized I had completely forgotten one of my favorite settings, and maybe the best one created in the OSR era - the Midderlands by Glynn Seal of Monkeyblood Design.

Today on Mea Culpa, I welcome back fellow MeidasTouch contributor Adam Mockler for a scorching breakdown of Trump's self-serving presidency and America's deepening political crisis. Mockler, a Gen Z political commentator and creator known for taking on Republicans head-to-head, joins me to unpack how we can finally get Trump out of office. We dig into this week's news, from the destruction of the White House East Wing to build his “billionaire ballroom” to false claims of a $20 trillion economic boom, exposing how Trump's corruption has reached new heights amid a government shutdown. We reveal how farmers, federal workers, and ordinary Americans are paying the price for Trump's chaos while corporate donors and foreign allies cash in. Finally, we tackle ICE raids, propaganda at the Pentagon, and the DOJ's weaponization under Trump's control, showing just how fragile American institutions have become under Trump's obsession with power.

Today on Mea Culpa, I welcome back my friend Joe Walsh, former Republican Congressman, host of The Social Contract with Joe Walsh, and fierce Trump critic. We break down Trump's destruction of the White House's East Wing to build his billionaire ballroom, the hypocrisy of a government shutdown while he enriches himself, and Trump's gluttonous move to demand that the DOJ give him $230 million in damages for past cases. We also discuss the rise of Christian nationalism, Congress's collapse as a check on power, and how courts are handling Trump's orders to deploy the National Guard in American cities. From fake populism to full-blown authoritarianism, this episode confronts what happens when democracy is left undefended.

Ravi Gupta and guest host Stephen Webber, filling in for Jason Kander, start with some rare good news for Democrats, breaking down Harry Enten's latest analysis showing early positive signs in New Jersey's returns and what that might mean heading into 2026. They unpack data showing Democrats cutting into the GOP's mail ballot lead, rising early vote enthusiasm, and a noticeable shift in party energy as figures like Senator Schatz test new messages aimed at revving up the base. Gupta and Webber also highlight the bizarre week for Republican leadership, as Speaker Johnson defends the president's crude social media posts and dodges questions about pardoning a January 6 rioter, while Ted Cruz stokes culture war outrage over pro-democracy protests. Meanwhile, Trump spends his days golfing, demanding DOJ payouts, and posting rants as his shutdown drags on and GOP hypocrisy explodes—from private jet subsidies to ballroom renovations. The hosts then turn to North Carolina's redistricting fight, stalled Democratic donor activity, and the brewing Maine Senate race, before diving into escalating tensions with Venezuela, confusion over U.S. beef imports, and Trump's latest chaos at the DOJ.

In a remarkable set of events, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi rejected two of the six representatives chosen by House Minority leader Kevin McCarthy to sit on the January 6th Commission. McCarthy chose Ohio Rep, Jacketless Gym Jordan who not only voted to overturn the election AFTER the insurrection but has repeatedly made up insane shit about the FBI being responsible for the riot. While Rep Indiana Rep Jim Banks, another MAGA blowhard has spent his time asking why Pelosi didn't do a better job of protecting the capital. This is akin to putting people who believe 9/11 was an inside job on that commission. Complete and total idiocy. Well, Pelosi kicked them all in the ass and now they got nothing. Later, SiriusXM's John Fugelsang joins Mea Culpa to discuss the creepiness of Jim Jordan and why the Evangelicals still love Trump.

Today on Mea Culpa, I'm joined by my friend Maria Cardona, Democratic strategist, CNN commentator, Principal at the Dewey Square Group, and founder of Latinovations, for a deep dive into Trump's mounting influence and the chaos reshaping Washington. We unpack what Trump's erratic foreign policy means for global stability and his self-congratulatory rhetoric surrounding the Israel-Gaza ceasefire. We also focus on America's own unrest, from ICE crackdowns and National Guard deployments in our cities to the weaponization of the justice department through indictments of Trump's political enemies. Together, we expose how Trump's tactics mirror authoritarian playbooks and explore how Democrats can unify their message ahead of the midterm elections.

Last week Trump discovered whatever's beneath rock bottom and burrowed to another level altogether, where the truly disgusting CHUDS live and dwell. He now sees fit to spin a bullshit narrative around January 6th that celebrates the riots and justifies the rioters as aggrieved patriots. Experts fear more violence is to come as soon as this August. David Pakman joins Mea Culpa to discuss what might happen.

Trump's latest ploy for attention has him suing big tech to get back on Twitter, Facebook and Google. The flawed plan elicited universal mockery from legal experts and pundits based on its flawed premise and total distortion of the law and basic facts. In addition, any lawsuit would immediately open the former President to legal discovery by the big three high powered lawyers who would grill his ass on every aspect of January 6h. Next, Michael examines Trump's latest legal tactic in his tax fraud case, total Ignorance. Unfortunately, for Trump he's spent the past decade bragging about how much he knows about tax law. Finally, comedian Walter Masterson joins Mea Culpa to discuss his journey into the heart of MAGA darkness.

Today on Mea Culpa, I'm joined by David Corn, veteran journalist, author of American Psychosis, and Washington Bureau Chief for Mother Jones. Together we break down Trump's escalating power grabs, from his reckless deployment of the National Guard to his propaganda-laced military speeches and attempts to impact history with his own commemorative coin. We explain how Trump uses chaos and misinformation to test the limits of democracy, while Democrats struggle to deliver a clear counter-narrative. We dig into the government shutdown, James Comey's indictment, and how intimidation of prosecutors, journalists, and public institutions threatens to collapse accountability. From martial law “tests” in Portland to Trump's cult of personality, Corn warns that America's democratic future depends on whether truth can survive the noise.

The Manhattan DA's case against the Trump Organization and Donald Trump has put intense pressure on the former President as he finds himself increasingly cornered. The prospect of an indictment has forced him back out on the campaign trail as he seeks to shield himself from prosecution by spinning the case as yet another political witch hunt. At the same time, the GOP must reckon with the fact that for good or ill, Trump is still the center of the Republican universe and thus they need to change the narrative. In the past several months, the right has engaged in a propaganda war to white wash the history of the Trump presidency and what happened on January 6th. The result has been a steady drip of stunning and shameless lies. Finally, political strategist and Democratic stalwart Joe Trippi joins Mea Culpa to discuss the fall out caused by the GOP's authoritarian crusade.    To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy ...
