CannCon and Zak Paine dig into a fascinating side door into the New Jersey non citizen voter story: jury duty summons. It turns out a full 20 percent of the roughly one million people summoned each year report they do not meet eligibility requirements, mostly over citizenship, and those same lists overlap heavily with voter rolls pulled straight from the DMV and tax records. They also play a surprisingly candid clip of a CNN anchor admitting he was wrong to dismiss claims of illegal voting by migrants after previously calling the whole idea debunked. From there they cover Alaska's self attestation loophole for inactive voters before wrapping with Chuck Schumer's closed door doomsday tabletop exercises preparing Senate Democrats for a range of midterm nightmare scenarios. Expect some sharp back and forth and plenty of skepticism about official numbers.

Sidney Powell's admission that her 2020 election conspiracies were nothing more than a steaming pile of bullshit has Trump World scurrying for cover. Meanwhile, Trump himself continues the lie with appearances on Fox News that characterize the January 6th Insurrection as a bunch of patriots hugging and kissing. Michael then examines how Trump's lie continues to reverberate, especially within Georgia after Governor Kemp signed new ugly and regressive voter suppression legislation.

Mea Culpa examines the right wing media's attempt to white wash the Capital Riot. Lawmakers and pundits keep trying to paint the January 6th insurrection as either the work of Antifa or outside “agent provocateurs,” sent to disrupt an otherwise peaceful gathering. Like the Big Lie that begat January 6th, the more these outlets push this alternative history, the more people are prone to believe what they read or hear. Michael speaks with former Obama White House Ethics Czar and Special Counsel to the House Judiciary Committee Norman Eisen.To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policyLearn more about your ad choices.

With Donald Trump's impeachment trial in the rearview mirror, the criminal and civil prosecution of the former President has only just begun. The push to impeach Trump may have failed on political lines, but he will likely not fare as well in a court of law. Thus, lawmakers and prosecutors have begun targeting the former president for his role in the January 6TH riot with a series of lawsuits that place the blame for the carnage on Trump's shoulders.For cool Mea Culpa gear, check out www.meaculpapodcast.com/merchTo learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policyLearn more about your ad choices.

With just one week to go before the start of Donald Trump's second Impeachment, the GOP has once again rallied behind the former president; ending the bi-partisan furor that promised to force Trump out of American politics once and for all. The reality of the situation is that the state party hacks who control the GOP on a grassroots level have become infected by MAGA diehards who have but one litmus: how much you support the former president. They have threatened to primary and expel any congressmen who step out of line. Plus, Michael speaks with New Yorker staff writer Jelani Cobb on Biden's vision for American unity and much, much more.

The nation collectively exhaled a sigh of real as Joe Biden was inaugurated the 46th president of the United States. His address was a marked contrast from Trump's dystopian American Carnage speech four years prior. But the new president inherits a nation beset by crisis and pandemic with bitter internal divisions. The elephant in the room remains the now former President Trump whose impeachment trial looms. Meanwhile America waits for justice to be served.

Tomorrow's inauguration may spell the end for Donald Trump's disastrous presidency, but the monster he unleashed upon us January 6th will be with us for a generation. Michael discusses how the rioters were not some extraordinary group of hardened extremists, but rather, they come from our own communities; representing, as writer Hannah Arendt noted in her landmark 1963 New Yorker essay about the trial of Adolf Eichmann, "the banality of evil." The Lincoln Project's Rick Wilson joins Michael to discuss how we go about dismantling Trump's ugly legacy and hold the rioters and those who supported them accountable.

Mea Culpa welcomes the Lincoln Project advisor Stuart Stevens. Regarded as one of the Republican Party's most talented political gurus—a body of work that includes steering Mitt Romney's presidential campaign in 2012—Stevens may also be the GOP's most prominent defector when he abandoned his party as Trump rose to power. He despises the former president in a way that feels strikingly personal. While the Lincoln Project argues that Trump is perverting the Republican Party, Stevens doesn't think Trump has perverted anything: Trump is the Republican Party, Stevens believes, and the Republican Party is Trump. Stuart believes there is no reclaiming his former party, it must be burned to the ground. Or to use a Vietnam-era metaphor, the Village must be destroyed in order to save it. Reflecting on a four-decade career in American politics, Stevens is convinced that Trump was not an aberrant zigzag. He was fate. “I saw a lot of this stuff, but I just chose to believe that this kind of dark side was the recessive gene, not the dominant one,” he says. “I was wrong.” Stevens joins Mea Culpa to discuss his fabulous new book “The Conspiracy to End America: Five Ways My Old Party Is Driving Our Democracy to Autocracy.” The book is part memoir and part Jeremiad as Stevens unpacks how we are moving towards an autocratic end.

Mea Culpa welcomes back to the show, legendary newsman David Corn, the Washington DC Bureau Chief of Mother Jones, and an on-air analyst for MSMBC. Corn and Michael Isikoff “co-authored, “Russian Roulette, The Inside Story of Putin's War on America and the Election of Donald Trump”. He's also the author of four New York Times best-selling books and was the long-time Washington editor for “The Nation”. For a good read, check out “Our Land” — his twice-weekly newsletter that covers everything from news of the day to entertainment, but all told in Corn's no bullshit style. Corn has been published multiple times, but his latest bestseller,” American Psychosis: A Historical Investigation of How the Republican Party Went Crazy” is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding our unprecedented times. He joins us today amidst unprecedented dysfunction in American government as the GOP continues for a third week without a House speaker, paralyzed by infighting between moderate and extremist factions of the GOP. On top of this, former President Trump awaits four separate criminal trials and has all but dared Judge Chuktan to jail him for violating his gag order. All the while war rages in Israel and Ukraine. It seems we are drifting without a rudder and American credibility is suffering. 

On this episode of Mea Culpa, Michael Cohen is joined by legal analyst Dave Aronberg to discuss the latest escalation in the Middle East as the bombing continues and tensions show little sign of easing. Together, they examine the legal, political, and geopolitical implications of the ongoing conflict, the Trump administration's response, and what these developments could mean for the United States and the wider region in the days and weeks ahead.

Mea Culpa welcomes back our old friend Malcolm Nance. You may know Nance as the globally renowned expert on terrorism, extremism, and insurgency from his stunning new book, “They Want to Kill Americans: The Militias, Terrorists, and Deranged Ideology of the Trump Insurgency.” It became a New York Times best-seller as was his last book, the Plot to Hack America. He's the counter-terrorism analyst for NBC and MSNBC. Nance is considered one of the "Great African-Americans in Espionage” by the International Spy Museum. But he is also extremely well-sourced on what's happening in the armed forces and has spent time on the frontlines of Ukraine. Today he shifts his expertise and perspective to Israel and the readiness of the IDF to invade Gaza and perhaps face Hezbollah on its northern border with Lebanon. Nance joins us with answers to our most burning questions, like “how did this happen?”

Mea Culpa welcomes back our friend, the brilliant political comic and anti-MAGA troll Walt Masterson. Over the past few years, Masterson has brilliantly insinuated himself into the fabric of the MAGA nation and trolled everyone from January 6th rioters to neo nazi school board members, making them look like imbeciles and exposing their hypocrisy to millions and viewers, especially on Tik Tok where his takedowns of the political right have helped him amass over 1.7 million dedicated followers. He joins us today to discuss his latest round of videos and how much Gas the MAGA stupid train has in the tank.

Mea Culpa welcomes back our old friend, Harry Litman, the former US Attorney and Deputy Assistant Attorney General. Litman is currently the legal affairs columnist for the Los Angeles Times and a professor of Constitutional Law at UCLA and UCSD. Harry can be seen as a legal and political commentator on CBS, NPR MSNBC, and CNN. Litman is also the creator and host of the Talking Feds Podcast. You'd be smart to subscribe to the “Talking Feds” YouTube channel. New episodes are posted daily and he features the greatest legal minds and tough-as-nails former prosecutors breaking down the legal news and all things Trump indictment. But today Harry is here to give us the rundown on the latest in Trump's four criminal indictments, and the continued fallout from the Judge Engoron ruling. 

Mea Culpa welcomes the fantastic Elie Mystal, the Nation's Justice Correspondent and the host of its legal podcast “Contempt of Court. In addition to being a frequent guest on MSNBC, Mystal is also an Alfred Knobler Fellow at the Type Media Center. His first book is “The New York Times bestseller “Allow Me to Retort: A Black Guy's Guide to the Constitution.” Mystal is also an attorney and is considered one of the foremost experts on the Supreme Court. But he's also funny as hell and can be seen trolling the GOP daily on the platform formerly known as Twitter. He joins us today as the House of Representatives descends into chaos and the GOP searches for another sucker to take the speaker's gavel.

Mea Culpa welcomes back one of our favorite people from the Lincoln Project, Tara Setmayer. She's a former CNN political commentator, a contributor to ABC News, and a former GOP Communications Director on Capitol Hill. Setmayer has appeared on ABC's The View, ABC's Good Morning America, and HBO's Real Time with Bill Maher. She was named a Harvard Institute of Politics Spring 2020 Resident Fellow. Also in 2020, she joined The Lincoln Project as a senior advisor. Setmayer hosts the live show "The Breakdown" alongside co-founder Rick Wilson, on the organization's streaming channel, LPTV. She's also a fierce critic of the ongoing MAGA agenda and what she views as the GOP's shameful inability to move beyond its toxic politics. She joins me today as we celebrate the ruling against Donald Trump by Judge Engoron. 

Mea Culpa welcomes Reed Galen, co-founder of The Lincoln Project and a veteran public affairs and political commentator with more than 20 years of experience, Reed has been involved in politics, government, and business at the highest levels. Galen has spent more than a decade advising Fortune 50, 100, and 1000 companies needing high-level counsel in strategic communications, procurement, and legislation.

Galen also worked on both of President George W. Bush's campaigns and served the Bush Administration at both the U.S. Department of the Treasury and the Department of Homeland Security. As founder of the Lincoln Project, Galen has led the groups vision and created some of its most memorable attacks against Donald Trump. He is now focused on ridding the nation of Trump and attempting to purge the GOP of its love affair with MAGA ideology. He joins us today to discuss the changing of the media guard as Rupert Murdoch rides off into the right-wing sunset. So, let's go now to that conversation.

Mea Culpa welcomes Frank Figliuzzi to help us figure out the legal ramifications of everything going on in Washington DC. Figliuzzi is a national security contributor and regular columnist for NBC News and MSNBC.

His 2016 Dworkin Report helped uncover the Trump-Russia affair well before Special Counsel Mueller's probe began. He served as a deputy director for both the 2009 Presidential Inaugural Committee and 2012 Democratic National Convention and was a senior advisor on both the Draft Biden and Run Warren Run campaigns.

Mea Culpa welcomes back progressive activist and Twitter phenom Brooklyn Dad Defiant. Ever since January 6th, BDD has used his platform which reaches 1.2 million followers to push back on the MAGA agenda as well as the poisonous rhetoric they spread across social media.

Harry can be seen as a legal and political commentator on CBS, NPR MSNBC, and CNN. Litman is also the creator and host of the Talking Feds Podcast. Check out their latest show featuring a who's who of prosecutorial muscle and special guests like former Senator Al Franken. Also, make sure to check out their new YouTube channel. They may have a face for radio but its content you won't want to miss. New episodes are posted daily and he features the greatest legal minds and tough as nails former prosecutors breaking down the legal news and all things Trump indictment. But today Harry is here to give us the rundown on what's happening in Georgia and discuss just what was on Evan Corcoran's phone and how it will damage Donald Trump. So let's go now to that conversation.

Mea Culpa welcomes Grant Stern to the show. Stern is the Executive Editor of Occupy Democrats AND publishes the must-read, STERN FACTS newsletter on Substack. He's also a mortgage broker, community activist and radio personality in Miami, Florida, as well as the producer of the Dworkin Report podcast. Grant is also an occasional contributor to Raw Story, Alternet, and the DC Report, and an unpaid senior advisor to the Democratic Coalition and a Director of Sunshine Agenda Inc. a government transparency nonprofit organization. He joins me today on Mea Culpa to discuss his latest bombshell report on fake electors and discuss the impact of the Enrique Tario sentencing plus much, much more. 

Mea Culpa welcomes Lev Parnas from the wilds of Boca Raton, Florida. Lev is a Soviet-born businessman who along with Rudy Giuliani and Igor Fruman played a central role in the campaign to pressure Ukraine to investigate Trump's political rivals…including Hunter Biden. Parnas was thrown into Trump's first impeachment drama, but he worked with federal prosecutors against Giuliani and the former president. Parnas is currently serving a 20-month sentence for Campaign Finance, Wire Fraud, And False Statements Offenses, and is speaking to us today while on home confinement. Lev is a truth-teller and unafraid to remember the things that most folks wish he would forget. Sorry folks but there's a hashtag that Parnas deploys that says it all, “LEV REMEMBERS.” What that means for Rudy Giuliani, Donald Trump and the rest of these criminals is that they are in deep shit because LEV REMEMBERS. 

Mea Culpa welcomes back legendary politician turned political analyst, Michael Steele. Steele made history when he became the first African-American candidate to be elected to statewide office in Maryland, where he served as lieutenant governor from 2003 to 2007, and when he was chosen to be the first African-American chairperson of the Republican National Committee from 2009 to 2011. Steele's abilities as a communicator and commentator have been showcased daily on MSNBC, where he has become a fierce opponent of Donald Trump and the MAGA agenda. He's also appeared on Meet the Press, Face the Nation, HBO's Real Time with Bill Maher, and The Daily Show to name a few. In addition to his work in television, Steele can be heard each week on his radio show on SiriusXM or on the Michael Steele Podcast which has become a must listen for those on both sides of the aisle. He joins me today to discuss the legal thicket we must politically navigate as Trump's four criminal trials loom as well as some color commentary on last week's GOP Debate. 

Mea Culpa welcomes back, intrepid newsman, Ali Velshi. Host of “Velshi” and seemingly the favorite fill-in host of every other MSNBC Prime Time News Show. Velshi also reported live from the frontlines of the George Floyd protests, he was drenched during hurricane Ian. And dodged incoming fire from Russian artillery when he fearlessly reported live from the frontlines in Ukraine. A concerned citizen of the world, Velshi seems to be everywhere there is an injustice. He has been a contributor at CNN, Al Jazeera America, and NBC to name a few. He joins us on Mea Culpa amidst this historic moment of Trump's fourth arrest. Just last week he read the entirety of the 98-page indictment on the air and into the historic record. This is a true moment of infamy.
