Podcast appearances and mentions of Mitch Landrieu

Democrats are sounding the alarm as Trump's tariffs are hurting Americans. Former senior adviser to President Biden, Mitch Landrieu, joins The Weekend to discuss how Democrats are ramping up their efforts to win back the working class. Plus, Trump's first major foreign trip. He plans on stopping in the Middle East to talk about a ceasefire in the Israel-Gaza war. MSNBC national security and intelligence analyst Marc Polymeropoulos and Ambassador Michael Carpenter join The Weekend to discuss that and the tariff war as trade talks continue between the U.S. and China.

Mitch Landrieu oversaw the recovery of New Orleans in the wake of Hurricane Katrina as mayor from 2010 to 2018. He sat down with WHRO to talk about the shared challenges between his city and Hampton Roads.

On this week's episode of 'The Saturday Show with Jonathan Capehart': Mounting Opposition. Thousands take to the streets across the country to protest the extreme Trump Agenda, from market-busting tariffs to devastating cuts to federal agencies and more. I'll ask former Biden advisor Mitch Landrieu if this is a defining moment for Democratic resistance. A Rough Republican week. The markets tanked. Their advantage in ruby red congressional districts was cut in half. And a Wisconsin supreme court seat didn't go their way. Political analyst Charlie Sykes and former Biden White House official Andrew Bates weigh in on whether this week was a defining moment for the GOP. Fear Factor. The Trump administration is fighting a judge's order to bring back a man mistakenly detained and sent to that notorious prison in El Salvador. Maria Hinojosa joins me to discuss how these wrongful removals are sparking fear in the immigrant community. And, on the run. Michigan state Sen. Mallory McMorrow is here to talk about her bid for a U.S. Senate seat and why she says it's time for a new generation of Democratic leadership.

Al Sharpton, General Barry McCaffrey, Rep. Jim Himes, Mitch Landrieu, Mike Schmidt, Kristy Greenberg, Ruth Ben-Ghiat, and Allison Riggs.

Some curse words are used in this discussion.  In the previous episode, Mitch Landrieu discussed his upbringing, including the impact his father had on race relations in New Orleans and how this informed Mitch's leadership during some of city's toughest hours. In the second half of this conversation, we get his unvarnished perspective on changes in the federal approach to the budget, humanitarian aid, and personnel-- matters closely related to his experience in Louisiana state and local government.  Disasters on the scale of Hurricane Katrina were once relatively rare. Today, they are occurring with greater frequency and intensity. According to Climate Central, the 1980s averaged 82 days between billion-dollar disasters; for the five years between 2019 and 2023, that average gap shrank to just 16 days. The average annual cost of these events has more than tripled— from $28 billion in 1984 to $101 billion today.  The Palisades, Hurst and Eaton fires in Los Angeles began the 2025 list of devastating national disasters, resulting in over 37,000 acres burned and an estimated $30 to $50 billion in damages. Having worked with the federal government through several recovery processes in his own state, Mayor Landrieu has some concerns with how the delivery of disaster aid was managed for California.  Listen in as Ten Across founder Duke Reiter and Mitch Landrieu discuss the stakes and responsibilities of governing in the face of national disaster and global conflict.  We've taken a new approach with this episode, take a listen and let us know what you think by leaving a review on your preferred podcast platform.   Related articles and resources:  Governing Through Times of Crisis and Opportunity with Mayor Mitch Landrieu - Part One“Americans' Deepening Mistrust of Institutions” (Pew Charitable Trust, Oct. 2024)  “Americans agree more than they might think—not knowing this jeopardizes the nation's shared values” (The Conversation, Nov. 2024)  “Johnson opens door to linking voter ID to California disaster aid after Trump demand” (The Hill, Jan. 2025)  “Trump threatens to withhold aid for California wildfires in first TV interview since inauguration” (The Washington Post, Jan. 2025)  “US stock market loses $4 trillion in value as Trump plows ahead on tariffs” (Reuters, March 2025)

Nicolle Wallace on the FBI's newfound focus on retribution, a confrontation between Elon Musk and members of Trump's cabinet, and growing concerns over the future of the U.S. economy.  Joined by: Glenn Thrush, Frank Figliuzzi, Kristy Greenberg, Michael Steele, Rev. Al Sharpton, Mitch Landrieu, Steve Rattner, Susanne Craig, Ben Rhodes, and Amb. Michael McFaul.

As a native New Orleanian, Mitch Landrieu knows a thing or two about crisis and recovery. He served as the lieutenant governor of Louisiana through Hurricanes Katrina and Rita in 2005 and the compounding effects of subsequent storms including Ike and Gustav. In 2010, he was sworn in as mayor of New Orleans—just one month after the Deepwater Horizon explosion undermined the region's efforts to recover from five years of depopulation and economic decline.  Mayor Landrieu's experience working for the efficient restoration of New Orleans's critical infrastructure later led the Biden Administration to appoint him as an advisor on the national implementation of the 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. Otherwise known as the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL), this bill has been the largest long-term investment in U.S. infrastructure since the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1965. It has prioritized and funded an array of essential, future-oriented projects throughout the country.  The aftermath of Hurricane Katrina demonstrated how the increasing scale of environmental disasters will expose vulnerabilities in the nation's aging infrastructure. Local leaders are thus seeking strategies that balance the needs of growth and economic development with the proactive management of current and future risks.  The work that Mayor Landrieu, city staff, and community partners undertook to steer New Orleans's recovery process away from bankruptcy and toward revived communities and a more secure built environment has provided a case study for policymakers and resilience groups around the world.  In part one of this two-part episode, Mayor Landrieu talks with Ten Across founder Duke Reiter about the personal and professional experiences that have influenced his views on equity and resilience and shaped some of the bold positions he's taken in governing. Part two will delve further into his views and outlook on contemporary governance.  We've taken a new approach with this episode, take a listen and let us know what you think by leaving a review on your preferred podcast platform.   Related articles and resources:  “Want to Understand the Future of U.S. Climate Resilience?

On this week's episode of 'The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart': Dubious deadline. Elon Musk says federal employees must justify their job by Monday night or they'll be out of work. But even the leaders of the FBI and State Department are urging their staff not to comply. I'll discuss the chaos and the Democratic response with Rep. Jasmine Crockett and former Biden advisor, Mitch Landrieu. Blackout. The growing online movement to boycott major retailers abandoning diversity and inclusion initiatives. The Rev. Al Sharpton will tell me if this is an effective strategy. And a Bold Move. Three years ago tomorrow, Russia invaded Ukraine, but today, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he's willing to resign if it leads to peace. Amb. Michael McFaul will discuss this and the unwillingness of some in the Trump administration to admit that Vladimir Putin started the war. All that and more on “The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart.”

Twelfth Night marks the birth of the late New Orleans icon, Leah Chase. The culinary legend, who passed away in 2019 at the age of 96, was the undisputed Queen of Creole Cooking and a civil rights activist who changed lives over a bowl of gumbo. On this week's show, we spend the hour honoring Leah's talent, achievements, and lasting legacy. We begin with one of our favorite Louisiana Eats moments: a special day we spent with Leah in 2012, when then-Mayor Mitch Landrieu kicked off the official start of Carnival season at Gallier Hall with king cake and a surprise for Leah on her 89th birthday. From there, we look back on Leah's early life in Madisonville, Louisiana. Leah describes growing up on a strawberry farm, and the lessons she learned that shaped the legend she would become. We continue with an oral history from NOLA Life Stories, in which Leah recounts her first experiences working in a café in the French Quarter, as told to Mark Cave of the Historic New Orleans Collection. Next, we arrive at a turning point in Leah's life — the moment she met big band leader Edgar "Dooky" Chase, Jr. Following their marriage, Leah went to work at Dooky's, her in-laws' simple sandwich shop in the Treme. As she began to serve Creole classics like gumbo and Chicken Clemenceau on fine linen, Leah elevated the dining culture for everyone. Leah tells us about her famous Gumbo z'Herbes, a dish she served at her restaurant every Holy Thursday for over 60 years. We also chronicle how Leah rebuilt Dooky Chase's after Hurricane Katrina. Eleven years after the storm, Leah experienced two other monumental life events — the first was her 2016 Lifetime Achievement Award from the James Beard Foundation. Months later, Leah's husband and partner Edgar "Dooky" Chase — the man who played a key role in her success — passed away at the age of 88. In this final segment, Leah reflects on their relationship and shares her thoughts on death and living a fulfilling life.

 601. Part 1 of our conversation with Cherry Levin about her research into Antebellum weddings in Louisiana Creole plantations. She wrote a dissertation at LSU entitled, “Wedding Belles and Enslaved Brides: Louisiana Plantation Weddings in Fact, Fiction and Folklore.” “Along with rites of passage marking birth and death, wedding rituals played an important role in ordering social life on antebellum Louisiana plantations, not only for elite white families but also for the enslaved. Autobiographical accounts of plantation weddings written by Louisiana women yield considerable insights on the importance of weddings for Louisiana plantation women before and especially during the Civil War. Moreover, information contained within the Louisiana Writers' Project narratives reveal various types of wedding ritual used to unite the enslaved on Louisiana plantations despite laws and codes that prohibited slave unions. In contrast to these historical accounts, plantation weddings in the fictional imagination reveal that the figure of the bride reflects careful authorial negotiation of racialized and gendered ideologies.” (Levin).  “A distinguished graduate of the Association of Bridal Consultants' Professional Development Program, Cherry has planned and coordinated over two hundred weddings throughout the San Francisco Bay Area, the Wine Country and Lake Tahoe. She has also planned weddings in San Luis Obispo, Texas and locations throughout southeastern Louisiana from Baton Rouge to New Orleans” (Retrospect Images).

On this week's episode of 'The Saturday Show with Jonathan Capehart': We're just three days away from the most consequential election of our lifetimes, and early voting is already at a record high.

Many more Americans are struggling to survive and make ends meet than is typically portrayed in the media and public policy debates. And when poverty is depicted, harmful and inaccurate stereotypes often contribute to divisiveness rather than sympathy. Outdated measurement systems and unrealistic living standards have artificially kept U.S. poverty rates low over the past few decades. But Reverend William Barber II and his colleagues at the social change organization Repairers of the Breach have worked to correct the data and popularize the true scale of the problem. About 135 million people, or roughly 40% of the country, are considered poor or low wage, which means making less than $15 an hour. And in his book released earlier this year, “White Poverty: How Exposing Myths About Race and Class Can Reconstruct American Democracy,” co-written with Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove, he tackles misconceptions about race and poverty that keep people divided and powerless. The myth that all poor people are Black hides reality and exploits racism to ensure that nothing changes. In this talk from the 2024 Aspen Ideas Festival in June, Barber talks with longtime public servant and former mayor of New Orleans, Mitch Landrieu, about what poverty really looks like and why the issue has been so distorted. aspenideas.org

The ex-POTUS has resolved that his route to regain power is creating hate, fear, and anger. Meanwhile, his little fascist from Santa Monica is planning to raid quinceañeras as part of a mass deportation. In contrast, Kamala promises to be a president for everybody—with fights only in the fields of democracy. Plus, Elon's despicable Nick Fuentes-grade ads targeting Jewish and Arab voters, and the MIA anti-Trump Republican men who are banking on Liz to do most of the talking. Mitch Landrieu and Will Saletan join Tim Miller. show notes: Some of Mayor Landrieu's favorite spots in NOLA Tipitina's live music Kingpin bar N7 restaurant Parkway Bakery & Tavern Domilise's Po-Boy and Bar

Mitch really thinks Biden will outperform expectations at Thursday's debate

On today's show, I open with a short recap of my time at the Road to the Majority Conference that was put on in Washington, D.C., put on by the Faith and Freedom Coalition. Each day for the next 13 weekdays, I will drop a special bonus episode of my interviews with many of the guests who spoke at the conference. So, depending on how you get my daily show, make sure to watch for the BONUS episodes each weekday. Then, because I did not have a show on Thursday or Friday, I open with Tara Bull's Top 10 News items the Legacy/mainstream media likely didn't talk about last week. It's always interesting to see what my audience already knows compared to those who only watch those outlets of propaganda. We already know Joe Biden is deep in debate prep for this coming Thursday on CNN. Well, it seems CNN may also be in deep prep as well. By way of example, we turn to Kasie Hunt who was interviewing Trump spokesperson Karoline Leavitt. Rather than have to listen to truth, Kasie talked over the guest and then shut off the mic and shut down the interview. So much for truth. But, looking at what Karoline Leavitt was trying to say, it's no wonder Kasie wanted to shut it down. The lack of objectivity from Jake Tapper and Dana Bash as “moderators” is atrocious. Even Kasie herself is a horrible Leftist who took joy when Senator Rand Paul was beaten and sent to the hospital by a rabid Democrat. It took seven years, but the breaking news from over the weekend from the fact-checking site Snopes, that Donald Trump never said white supremacists were “very fine people.” This audience has already known that for that seven years, but it's nice to see the rest of the world finally catching up to the truth. Maybe that's why the Left is losing their minds. Victor Davis Hanson put a piece describing the anatomy of a full leftwing meltdown and we are seeing it in full display. Mitch Landrieu, co-chair of the national Biden-Harris campaign was on Meet the Press and had no idea why so many Latino voters are running from Joe Biden. He also believes Joe Biden is still mentally sharp as a tack, is on the ball and the smartest guy in the room, so long as that room is behind closed doors. In the meantime, in the heart of deep blue Philadelphia, Donald Trump held another massive rally and his supporters are from every demographic and it's growing. A legal immigrant was in fire when interviewed about the rally as was an seasoned citizen. While Biden is out there with messages of anger and division, stuttering and wandering off to shake hands with invisible people, Trump is positive, uplifting and uniting. On that note, we close with one of the moment from this weekend's conference. Tulsi Gabbard reminded us of a different speech given in Philadelphia, by Joe Biden. In his best impression of V for Vendetta, Gabbard reminded us that Biden called all Trump supporters domestic terrorists. She then went on to describe the traits of those so-called enemies of democracy. Turns out, she's describing what we used to call patriotic Americans who love our country as founded and the Constitution of the United States of America.

On today's show we open with Tara Bull's Top 10 News items the Legacy/mainstream media likely didn't tell you about this week. We usually drop that on Friday, but her list didn't come out until late afternoon, so I put in Monday's show. Janet Yellen found herself once again having to admit prices are high, but we are told the Biden Administration is ready to do something about it. Well, they have already had 3 ½ years. It's a little late to pretend to care now. I do play a soundbite from around four years ago. The Morning Joe mocked and scolded anyone who believed the Hunter Biden laptop was real. I do that to illustrate how in lock-step so much of the media is in repeating state-approved narratives. Joe Biden's star-studded fund-raiser in LA had him lying again. This time he wants us to believe he taught Constitutional law for nine years. He then goes on to lie about the decisions of the current Supreme Court and fear monger to his leftist audience. Then, Barack Obama had to grab Biden by the hand and lead him off stage. This leads to the sudden move by some in the press to suggest we are setting the bar too high for Joe Biden at the upcoming debate. Alex Wagner on MSNBC puts forth a laughable assertion that the only expectation Trump has is if he is alive, standing and able to speak. The Left is constantly proving my point that they always blame the other side for that which they themselves are. The Biden-Harris campaign co-chair, Mitch Landrieu, said there is no universe at all where Donald Trump gains 21% of the black vote. Talk about soft bigotry and telling an entire group of Americans how they are expected to vote. But, on the same network, their polling data specialist said he has been waiting to see if that number would shift down, but it hasn't. If anything, it's growing for Trump. Laura Trump, RNC co-chair, reminds everyone, if you are planning to cheat in the upcoming election, they will find you and prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law. This goes hand-in-hand with news of how many illegals are being told how to register to vote. And, on the subject of voting, even Elon Musk has had it with electronic voting systems. Axios has a story about fears growing among ex-CIA officials of an imminent terror attack on our own soil. With Democrats lust for power, they are not just killing Americans via drugs and violent crime, but now they are putting our national security at risk, just to stay in power. While I covered it on Friday, I play some of the CNN propaganda piece trying to convince us we are a democracy. They say anyone who calls us a republic is misinformed. It's stunning to see such efforts to redefine our nation for their own ends. Finally, good ol' Senator Chuck “You” Schumer had to take down a staged picture to make it look like he was grilling burgers and hot dogs over Father's Day Weekend. It lines up with everything else we get from them, lies and fake news. Take a moment to rate and review the show and then share the episode on social media.
