This week, Alex digs into the nearly unfathomable corruption of President Trump's settlement with the Department of Justice, including the $1.776 billion “Anti-weaponization Fund”. She speaks to Michael Fanone, a former DC Metropolitan police officer who was at the Capitol on January 6th to see how he feels about his taxpayer money potentially going to the insurrectionists who attacked him. Then Alex is joined by Andrew Weissman, attorney and author of the new book, Liar's Kingdom. They talk about the lawsuit against the IRS that started this, and whether Trump actually has the legal immunity the settlement promises.
Dr. Drew opens the show by addressing the backlash he received over his comments about Hantavirus before Adam and Drew react to Zohran Mamdani putting his own spin on a famous Ronald Reagan quote. Adam then goes off on politicians claiming Americans are starving because they can't afford groceries, explains why he judges countries and cultures based on the quality of the cars they produce, and Dr. Drew brings up the Kars4Kids scandal. Later, Adam revisits the January 6th controversy surrounding Capitol Police officer Michael Fanone and newly released body cam footage that appears to conflict with his original account of the events that day.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
This morning, we break down the massive $1.8 billion taxpayer-funded pool that critics say could be used to benefit Donald Trump's allies, inner circle, and political loyalists. Now, reports are surfacing that some of that money could potentially go toward payments tied to January 6 defendants and insurrectionists, raising outrage and reigniting debates about accountability, political favoritism, and who government resources are really serving. At the same time, it's impossible to ignore the deep contradiction at the center of this debate: for decades, the federal government has argued that reparations for communities harmed by systemic racism and discrimination were unrealistic or impossible. Yet now, critics say taxpayer money may be flowing toward people tied to an attack on democracy itself. Don is joined by former Capitol Police officer Michael Fanone, attorney Monique Pressley, and strategist and host of The Warning with Steve Schmidt, Steve Schmidt, to break it all down.

Fox News's Maria Bartiromo puts the screws to acting AG Todd Blanche and asks directly: Do you have PROOF 2020 was stolen by the deep state? His answer is almost as interesting as the bodycam footage we're now seeing from Capitol police officer Michael Fanone, who was paraded by the deep state as a victim of the J6 "insurrection." A new Spencer Pratt ad drops and it absolutely blisters Karen Bass... Ilhan Omar certainly knew about the Minnesota Covid meal scam as the walls also close in on Keith Ellison and Tim Walz.

Today on Mea Culpa, I welcome back Michael Fanone, former Metropolitan D.C. police officer, January 6 hero, author, and political activist, for a raw and unfiltered conversation about truth, trauma, and the consequences of political gaslighting. Fresh off his appearance at Special Counsel Jack Smith's testimony last week, Fanone reflects on surviving January 6, the lasting PTSD faced by officers whose lived experiences were denied, and how confirmation bias and media distortion continue to endanger lives. Together, we examine the weaponization of misinformation, threats against truth-tellers, and the growing normalization of state violence. This episode confronts what happens when accountability disappears, and why speaking the truth remains an act of resistance.

PLUS: Sterling Thrill's Friday check-in & Matt Rinker pivots from an ATL campaign to a State House raceShortly before the show, a federal judge shut down the DOJ's push for sensitive Georgia voter data, adding another chapter to the soap opera that is and has been unfolding under Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger's tenure. Meanwhile, Ron popped in to former state Sen. Jason Estevez campaign kickoff Thursday night as his run for governor began before a packed crowd and with some legislative allies joining him to make the case that he's best-equipped to win the governor's desk in 2026. Hear what Esteves and surrogates were saying to make that case and note the jabs coming at former Atlanta mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms & former Lt. Governor Geoff Duncan. Because it's Friday, comedian and political satirist Sterling Thrill joined in to unpack the week's chaos— and find the humor wherever it was. Good news: he and Ron found some funny!But wait - there's more!Forget the dramatic Jack Smith testimony - how about Michael Fanone staring down MAGA instigator Ivan Raiklin - whom Rep. Jim Jordan allowed to sit directly behind Fanone in the first place? Hear Fanone's account of those near-blow moments. Checking in on Sen. Jon Ossoff's critical re-election year, he's seen doing what's needed for constituents by speaking up for tiny Social Circle's municipal pleas for a planned ICE detention facility to not be jammed into their community. As we'd discussed with their city manager before, the community's resources would be overwhelmed. Ossoff is also assailing DHS / ICE for failing to pay medical bills since last fall, leaving some third party providers to wait until late April, and with some denying medical care for those being detained. Ron checks in with Matt Rinker, pivoting from an Atlanta city council bid to running for Tanya Miller's House seat while she focuses on her run for Attorney General. On a last look at headlines of the day:Fulton DA's office opts not to prosecute Patti DurandTune in to catch the Ron Show weekdays from 4-6pm Eastern time on Georgia NOW!

Former special counsel Jack Smith finally faced Congress—and the hearing was brutal. Lawmakers hammered Smith over alleged civil rights violations, secret subpoenas targeting elected Republicans, and the J6 Committee’s reported destruction of witness interview records. Even CNN’s own legal voices hinted the Trump prosecution timeline looked political. Then the “January 6th heroes” narrative unraveled fast, as Capitol Police figure Michael Fanone erupted in shocking, profanity-laced confrontations that exposed the left’s double standard on “dignity and decorum.” SHOP OUR MERCH: https://store.townhallmedia.com/ BUY A LARRY MUG: https://store.townhallmedia.com/products/larry-mug Watch LARRY with Larry O'Connor LIVE — Monday-Thursday at 12PM Eastern on YouTube, Facebook, & Rumble!

In this episode, Don is joined by former D.C. police officer and friend of the show Michael Fanone to break down the viral moment that has everyone talking: a Texas state trooper appearing to intentionally and aggressively shoulder-check South Carolina wide receiver Nyck Harbor right after his touchdown. What was the point of this deliberate act of hostility? Why was an on-field law enforcement officer acting with such unnecessary aggression toward a student-athlete? And most importantly, should this trooper face real consequences for his actions? Don and Fanone take a closer look at the footage, the reaction from fans and players, and what this incident says about policing, power, and accountability. Learn more about your ad choices.

On Wednesday November 5, thousands of determined, beautiful people from across the country came together in the nation's Capital—on the one-year anniversary of Trump's election—to raise a call to millions: Join us! Trump Must Go! Trump Must Go Now! People felt the urgent historic mission and sense of responsibility to go from local, one-day protests to creating a “political earthquake from below”—amassing in Washington, DC in a sustained defiant, nonviolent uprising to drive the Trump fascist regime from power. And people have been coming out day after day to raise this demand, setting a different pace for a movement where, very soon, millions must nonviolently flood the streets of DC and come back again and again to demand Trump Must Go Now and not stop until our demand is met.Today we share some of the voices from the rallies last week. From Nov 5: Michael Fanone (former DC police officer who survived the Jan 6 insurrection), Sunsara Taylor (host of The RNL Show, co-initiator of Refuse Fascism), Baltazar Enriquez (president of Little Village Community Council in Chicago), and student organizers from around the country: Bode, Trevor, Cameron.

After a massive blue wave on Tuesday, you'd think Democrats would ride that momentum and keep fighting Trump's cruel policies. But nope, eight Senate Democrats just voted with Republicans to reopen the government without securing a deal on healthcare subsidies. That means premiums are going up, millions could lose coverage, and MAGA gets another win, all because Democrats blinked first. Again. This morning, Don is joined by friends of the show Jolly, Michael Fanone, Reecie Colbert, and Jack Cocchiarella to break down what this means for healthcare, the midterms, and the Democratic Party's backbone. Because after the week Democrats just had, this fold stings. This episode is sponsored by ZBiotics. Go to https://zbiotics.com/LEMON and use LEMON at checkout for 15% off first time orders.

Today on Mea Culpa, I welcome back Michael Fanone, former Metropolitan D.C. police officer, January 6 hero, author, and political activist, for a powerful conversation about America's descent into political violence. We reflect on how recent events, from the fallout over Charlie Kirk's assassination to Jimmy Kimmel's suspension, are reshaping the debate over free speech in America. Fanone also weighs in on the deadly toll of gun violence on police, Trump's reckless federalization of law enforcement, and how dangerous rhetoric from the top fuels attacks on officers and communities alike. From corporate capitulation to the global rejection of American authoritarianism, this episode issues a stark warning about the danger of apathy and why every American must keep fighting back.

The killing of Charlie Kirk has brought us to an incredibly dangerous political moment. Instead of waiting for facts, many on the right are rushing to blame the left,some even going so far as to call this a “war.” Little is known about the shooter, their motives, or affiliations, but what we do know is clear: escalating rhetoric and fueling division will only make this crisis worse. Tonight, we'll break down what's happening, why tensions are rising, and why it's more urgent than ever to step back from the brink. We're joined by Comedian, Actor, and Radio Host DL Hughley, along with an all star panel: friends of the show Jennifer Welch, Jolly, and Michael Fanone, political commentator @thedavidpakmanshow , Sam Rosenholtz (a.k.a.

(where the only thing being protected is Trump's ego), to MAGA's ongoing war on accountability, to the bizarre plans for Trump's upcoming birthday parade, they break it all down.

Don sits down with Michael Fanone and Michael Cohen to break down the chaos that's defined Trump's first 100 days back in office, and spoiler...it's not pretty. From spiraling economic turmoil and job-killing tariffs, to unconstitutional deportations and nonstop attacks on anyone who dares disagree, this presidency is already rewriting the definition of dysfunction. Whether it's punishing critics, bulldozing legal norms, or turning the government into a revenge tour, one thing's clear: the damage is real, and it's only just begun. Join Don, Fanone, and Cohen as they unpack the madness and what it means for the future of the country (if there's still one left to fix). This episode is sponsored by Shopify.

Today on Mea Culpa, I'm joined by Michael Fanone, former Metropolitan D.C. police officer, January 6 hero, author, and political activist. After being brutally injured during the Capitol insurrection, Fanone has become a leading voice for accountability, speaking out on behalf of the officers betrayed that day. In this episode, we explore how Trump's second term is shaping up to be a full-scale assault on democracy, due process, and basic decency. We also break down the week's tariff chaos, the disturbing deportations to El Salvador, and how some in law enforcement continue to support Trump despite his blatant disregard for their safety.
