Theobros are a new genre of Internet influencer who discuss theology on podcasts. They have been gaining an online following by saying the Bible supports their segregationist and antisemitic views. Bob Smietana from Religion News Service reported on these Theobros, and spoke to The Bulletin about their beliefs. Then, as the mid-term elections approach, we discuss the phenomenon of pastors, seminarians and former clergy running as Democratic candidates. We re-air a conversation with Mockingcast's David Zahl, diving specifically into the rise of Texas's Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico. Lastly, Charlie Sykes and Russell Moore discuss how to interpret polling data around the 2028 election, if they think JD Vance or Marco Rubio is more likely to become the Republican candidate, and what to value when thinking about who to vote for.

Paul Rieckhoff joins the MSNBC table with Nikki McCann Ramirez of Rolling Stone and former Harris senior advisor Mike Nellis to break down the political sucking chest wound of Trump's Iran war — and how it is bleeding into every corner of the 2026 midterms. From Texas, where Republicans are burning nine figures to defend a state that was never supposed to be competitive, to Nebraska, Kansas, South Dakota, and Alaska, where independent veterans are running as kryptonite to GOP incumbents, this is the clearest read yet on why Trump is now more unpopular with true independents than Nixon at the height of Watergate. Then MSNBC Pentagon reporter Priya Sridher joins with exclusive reporting on the USS Lincoln, the carrier that just broke a modern deployment record, at least eight suicide attempts in the strike group, and a 19-year-old sailor charged with malingering after jumping overboard. Paul connects the dots: an abused force, an unauthorized war, a Pentagon purging 20% of its generals and admirals, and a political class — in both parties — that still hasn't figured out how to stop any of it.

Moneda Moves is back for Latino Heritage Month and this season centers on a guiding question: who gets trusted in the U.S. economy right now and how is that trust built? Throughout the month, we will be speaking with experts across business, politics, ecosystem building and social justice to explore that question more deeply.María Teresa Kumar is an Emmy-nominated MSNBC contributor and founding President and CEO of Voto Latino, who since 2004 has raised over $75 million to build the country's largest Latinx voter registration and advocacy organization, registering more than 600K new voters ahead of 2020, and whose pioneering use of technology, social media and celebrity earned her recognition from Fast Company and Elle.In our Moneda Moves conversation, we speak about how growing up an immigrant shaped her thinking about power and trust, and what makes someone trustworthy in public life. With her experience she is able to identify the intersection between politics and money and where trust is breaking down, and how institutions build credibility with historically excluded communities. This episode was recorded earlier this spring, but especially as we approach midterm elections, it connects civic participation to Latino economic power amid federal policy volatility and what comes next.Tune in to hear how Voto Latino has built trust with Latino voters over the last 20+ years and what's next.Follow Maria Teresa on Instagram: @mariateresakumarFollow Moneda Moves on Instagram: @monedamovesFollow your host Lyanne Alfaro on Instagram: @lyannealfaroMain podcast theme song from Premium Beat.

Six minutes on a New York City subway became a Rorschach test for America. Amanda invites Anand Giridharadas back to look beyond the certainty surrounding the Jordan Neely and Daniel Penny case—and toward an uncomfortable truth: We may not be as divided as we think. Across the political spectrum, Americans are crying out with the same fear: No one is coming. We're on our own. Amanda and Anand dig into how that shared sense of abandonment can push us toward vigilantism, what we lose when we reduce complicated human beings to heroes and villains, and why reclaiming curiosity, complexity, and each other's humanity might be essential to democracy. About Anand: You know Anand Giridharadas from our WHY ARE BILLIONAIRES?!? episode. He is the author of the New York Times bestseller The Persuaders, the international bestseller Winners Take All, The True American, and India Calling. A foreign correspondent and columnist for The New York Times for more than a decade, he is an on-air political analyst for MSNBC, and publisher of the newsletter The Ink. Today we dive into Anand's spellbinding book, out today – MAN IN THE MIRROR – reporting on Jordan Neely's life and death, Daniel Penny's life and trial, and the way six minutes on the NYC subway holds a mirror to the city and the nation.

Bill speaks with clinical psychologist Dr. Vincent Greenwood about his book, Puppet on a String, and Greenwood's argument that Donald Trump fits the criteria for clinical psychopathy. Greenwood explains his assessment process, why he says an in-person interview is not required, and why he believes the condition has serious implications for Trump's conduct in office.They discuss the Hare Psychopathy Checklist, the traits Greenwood says are most relevant to Trump, and why he views the book as a warning to the public and to constitutional decision makers.Greenwood says an in-person exam isn't required: He describes evaluating behavior through records, interviews, biographies, and other public evidence.The book's central metaphor: The “puppeteer” is clinical psychopathy, the “puppet” is Trump, and the “prey” is the public affected by harmful behavior.Psychopathy is a pattern of traits: Greenwood presents it as a combination of behavioral tendencies, emotional deficits, and harm to others.The conversation covers traits including glibness, grandiosity, pathological lying, lack of remorse, callousness, impulsivity, and irresponsibility.Greenwood's reported score: He says Trump scored 32 on the checklist, above the commonly cited cutoff of 30 to diagnose a psychopath. Three traits Greenwood says matter in office: Impulsivity, remorselessness, and an insatiable drive to dominate. Greenwood argues these traits can shape decision-making, responses to tragedy, demands for loyalty, and political polarization.The book is a warning: Greenwood describes it as an effort to inform Congress, the cabinet, and the public.You can get your own copy of this important book at Bookshop.org.

I'm at my best in a private conversation. One-on-one, in the comments, on a call, I'm all in.Then it's time to be visible in public, and I shrink.For years I told myself the fix was to pitch harder. Get on a bigger show. Wait for someone with a larger audience to notice me and pull me up.Then Jamie Maglietta got on the podcast. She produced Vice President Kamala Harris at BET and spent 20 years inside MSNBC, Fox and CNN. She said one thing that rearranged how I think about being seen.You don't chase media. You produce it.That sounds like a slogan until she breaks it down. A national hit on CNN feels enormous and often brings in zero clients. She had a legal commentator on her show who'd been on every network, and it never turned into a single paying customer. Meanwhile her people go on one tiny local segment and pick up more followers in a day than any national spot ever gave them.Turns out the chase brings in almost nothing. What pays is being findable, clear, and someone people want to stay connected to.And here's the move I can't stop thinking about. Instead of sending some writer a "loved your article" note and hoping, find an expert you genuinely disagree with, say so publicly, and tag them. Now you're producing a conversation people actually want to watch, and you're in it as an equal.One more line of hers stung a little. You can be smart and really boring. Being the expert isn't enough. People have to want to turn you on.So where do you go quiet when it's time to be seen?This week's episode of Win The Hour, Win The Day Podcast interviews, Jamie Maglietta. Listen in.

COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN - SEASON 5 EPISODE 9 A-Block (SPECIAL COMMENT): You heard me. Trump wrote me a fan letter - but he hates me. Yet here's something I never write: but this is not about me! We'll get to it later. It's important because it is a metaphor for what's happening to the Republican Party as the midterms speed towards us: all of their candidates are vulnerable because their base is sick of the war and sick of Trump and especially sick of a guy who on the same day launches a tax-payer tirade concluding "America will never become a Communist country!" and then hours later is holding a State Dinner for the number-one ranked communist in the world. Even for a man who has never held the same thought in his head for two days in a row, it's bad. The De-Trumpification is picking up speed. ANOTHER Republican Trump Darling has scrubbed Trump from his site. The small-c conservative Cook Report has moved fifteen House races towards Democrats. An Iowa religious broadcaster says all the House candidates there have been told they are vulnerable, even if Trump won their district by 15 points. It. Is. Happening. B-Block (33:00) OK, the story of the fan letter from Trump and my other encounters with him, that date back to December 1983 (and which was followed by me walking in silence and then blurting to my camera crew the still-unanswered question 'WHAT THE EFF WAS WRONG WITH THAT GUY?" C-Block (58:00) WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Succession? The fourth best TV show of the century? I worked for the Murdochs. "Succession" is laugh out loud bad. Then there's the National Hockey League trying to manipulate history, and why the newest craze of paying half a million or two million or three million for an active athlete's trading card is madness. It's simple: what if he gets hurt, and you just paid $500,020 for his card, as some fool just did for a card of football's Jaxson Dart.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A strange Trump ad caught football fans by surprise. The taxpayer-funded advertisement aired during NFL games this past Sunday, appearing in commercial breaks of the Seahawks versus Commanders and Browns versus Panthers matchups. The spot shows Trump walking through a hallway declaring "this is the final battle" while his voiceover states he'll "cast out the communists, Marxists, and fascists" and "liberate America from these villains once and for all." The ad drew criticism from both Democrats and Republicans for using federal funds for what many argue is political campaigning. We welcome guests: Sarah Kendzior.

Today's Headlines: Trump spent day two of Xi Jinping's state visit showing him the White House construction zone and reporting that Xi "likes granite" and is "an expert on stone," while mortgage rates hit 7% for the first time since early 2025 and the state dinner guest list included Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Sam Altman, Jeff Bezos, and Supreme Court Justices Roberts, Kavanaugh, and Coney Barrett — a who's who of people who will shape the AI era sitting down together while Zuckerberg publicly broke with Altman and Amodei on whether AI companies need to slow down. Netanyahu addressed the UN claiming that without Israel and America acting together, "we'd all be dead," and took time to call out NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani by name for accusing Israel of genocide, while Iran's foreign minister presented a new proposal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and start final deal negotiations. In other news, the Navy officially acknowledged that 8 sailors aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln attempted to take their own lives during their 300-plus day deployment on a ship with broken plumbing, rotten food, and no port calls — while Trump previously said the deployment hadn't gone on long enough. A federal judge ordered ICE to fix "squalid" conditions at a New York detention facility and issued a permanent injunction, and a separate judge blocked Trump's press ban in the middle of the night — which the White House ignored anyway, continuing to bar CNN and MSNBC reporters and confiscating press hard passes. And finally, a 76-year-old man who was shot at Trump's Butler rally in 2024 died yesterday after more than two years of surgeries, making the casualties of that event two people, neither of whom is the president.

Tune in here to this Friday’s edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program with Pete Kaliner for this edition of The Hangover as they discuss President Donald Trump’s unpredictable political style, his meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping and the changing culture surrounding public appearances. Brett and Pete compare Trump’s off-the-cuff approach to that of a radio host, arguing that his ability to move from prepared remarks into spontaneous commentary is part of his political appeal. Later, Brett examines the growing dispute between the Trump White House and several major news organizations following restrictions on CNN, MSNBC and Politico at a White House event featuring Chinese President Xi Jinping. Brett plays clips from CNN’s Erin Burnett and reporter Kristen Holmes, who describe CNN’s efforts to gain access to the event and argue that the network was denied editorial access despite submitting credentials. Brett questions CNN’s portrayal of the situation, pointing out that other media personalities and outlets were present at the event while CNN was restricted from participating in the same capacity. Listen here for all of this and more on The Brett Winterble Show! For more from Brett Winterble check out his YouTube channel. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for September 24, 2026. We open by tackling the socialism debate head-on, breaking it down with a fifth-grade-simple question about neighbors and fairness before diving into a new Gallup poll showing 43% of Americans now hold a positive view of socialism — the highest number recorded since 2010. We explore the contradiction of Americans loving free enterprise and small business while flirting with socialist ideas they don't fully understand, and we draw the line between legitimate public services like roads and schools versus actual government ownership of production. From there we hit our Top 3 Things You Need to Know: a federal judge's temporary injunction forcing the White House to reinstate press credentials for CNN, MSNBC, and Politico. Twenty people charged with illegal voting in Florida's 2024 election, including sixteen alleged illegal aliens. And the messy vandalism scandal involving former Senator Kyrsten Sinema's ex-boyfriend and bodyguard. We then discuss President Trump's high-profile hosting of China's Xi Jinping at the White House, weighing the optics of diplomacy against real disagreements over trade, Taiwan, and human rights, and comparing the tone of that visit to the infamous Zelensky Oval Office meeting. Our American Mamas, Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson, join us to answer the question: what's a sign your church is thriving? They share how youth engagement — or the lack of it — can make or break a congregation, and why getting kids excited about church is the real key to growth. We dig deep into the fascinating claims out of Turkey, where researchers investigating the Durupinar Formation on Mount Ararat say they've found signs of a man-made structure that could be Noah's Ark — though we remain skeptical of the "100% confirmed" headlines. We also talk about the very different ways men and women read a story about Melania Trump's outfit at the Xi Jinping state visit, before landing on a Bright Spot: the Department of Justice reaching settlements with six major hospitals to end transgender procedures on minors. We close with the heartwarming story of 12-year-old Sadie Hudson, who repaired and donated 114 stuffed animals to the Red Cross for children who've lost everything in house fires.

In this week's PRmoment News Review, host Ben Smith and guests Mark Borkowski and Angie Moxham covered four PR stories: Earl Spencer's book, Harry and Meghan, Andy Burnham's visit to Trump Land, and Ed Sheeran's tour controversy.Charles Spencer's book Mark said Swan Song: Diana, My Sister had huge publicity, helped by the Mail serialisation and a Laura Kuenssberg interview. Still, he felt it had "a nasty smell" and was "a bit of a bank raid".Harry and Meghan Mark described the couple's latest moves. He argued they should have kept a low profile, and that they need a "trusted anchor" who understands British media. Angie felt sorry for them and called their PR "a lost cause". She saw a loss of confidence in Harry, whose teleprompter failed at an Invictus Games event and who couldn't ad lib.Andy Burnham meets Trump Mark said Trump's ban on CNN, MSNBC and Politico led other networks to side with them. As a result, visits by Burnham and the Chinese Premier got less coverage. Angie thought Burnham performed credibly on the international stage. She praised the media for standing together.Ed Sheeran Angie said Sheeran wasn't to blame, but that he responded late with a dry statement read from a teleprompter that didn't feel genuine. Mark blamed a corporate music industry. In his view, Sheeran's team built a "toxic mix": support act Macklemore, who has faced antisemitism accusations, playing a stadium owned by pro-Israel Robert Kraft. Sheeran is "vanilla", and fans only want him with an acoustic guitar.Here are some top quotes from this week's show:1. Mark Borkowski on Charles Spencer's book 0:01:24"I think there's a nasty smell about the book because I do feel that it is a bit of a bank raid."2. Mark Borkowski on Penguin Random House 0:01:24"Piers Morgan has the money and also the temperament to actually do what he wants to do: get the book pulped, and give as much pain as possible, not only to Penguin but of course his main target, Charles Spencer."3. Angie Moxham on Spencer's motives 0:04:03"I question his motive for publishing the book. He positions it as his swan song as much as hers. But he clearly has had an expensive divorce, and it's not cheap running estates."4. Mark Borkowski on Harry and Meghan's PR 0:05:17"They need that trusted anchor… that critical friend, that wise voice who understands social as well. I think things could be so much different for them."5. Angie Moxham on Prince Harry 0:09:42"The teleprompter dried up, and he couldn't ad lib. He did not have that passionate, heartfelt story narrative in his head to be able to get over that."6. Angie Moxham on media unity against Trump's media boycott against CNN, Politico and MS NOW 0:14:02"You can't take on the media by picking off individual brands. It's great that they've stood together. That's the power of great journalism."7. Mark Borkowski on Trump and Burnham 0:14:33"Campaigning against Trump is one thing, but actually governing alongside him has some advantages… that's part of what happens at these events: the sort of PR that happens in rooms we're not in."8. Mark Borkowski on Ed Sheeran 0:16:42"Ed Sheeran is not political. He is vanilla. He's the busker that's made it big… If he turned up on that stage with an acoustic guitar, he would have appeased his fans."Support the show

As I discussed with Barron Segar, President and CEO of World Food Program USA, in today's episode, the dynamics have shifted over the last decade. Despite declining government funding and rising costs, Barron remains hopeful—and solutions-driven.“When I started ten years ago, hunger was on the decline,” Barron told me. “Today, we're battling wars, extreme weather events, rising costs, and decreased funding. Yet, we're proud that the U.S. remains a significant contributor while the private sector has stepped up to fill some gaps.”As the representative of the Nobel Peace Prize-winning World Food Program, Barron highlighted how the organization is navigating these changing dynamics. One of its key innovations, he noted, is leveraging partnerships and pre-positioning supplies to respond to emergencies quickly, such as recent events in Nepal and Venezuela. Still, he emphasized, war stands as the leading cause of hunger today, making humanitarian access and supply delivery increasingly difficult.Barron shared an eye-opening statistic: “Over 262 million people today are suffering acute hunger.” This growing crisis, he explained, requires extraordinary efforts and resources to reach those most in need. In war zones like Gaza, the World Food Program is averting famine and feeding hundreds of thousands daily, yet the need remains massive.While discussing hotspots like Gaza, Ukraine, Haiti, and Honduras, Barron painted a vivid picture of the struggles faced by refugees and vulnerable communities forced to flee their homes. Reflecting on his visit to the Ukraine-Poland border shortly after the conflict began, he recalled meeting displaced women, children, and even elderly individuals carrying nothing but their few belongings—and their hope.Barron's optimism remains grounded in action. He credits both resilient frontline workers and scalable, innovative solutions, including cash-based transfers to sustain functioning marketplaces. Moreover, he directed listeners to “JustServe,” a platform helping volunteers address local needs domestically, while encouraging global responsibility.This episode underscored the dire need for collaboration and creative problem-solving to combat hunger and build long-term resilience. Barron's leadership highlights how strategic partnerships and unwavering dedication can drive impactful results—even in the face of unprecedented challenges.tl;dr:Barron Segar highlighted how wars, climate events, and underfunding exacerbate global hunger challenges.Innovations like cash-based transfers and strategic pre-positioning strengthen emergency food delivery.The World Food Program USA engages both governments and private sectors to address funding gaps.Barron emphasized creating a collaborative culture while setting measurable growth goals for leadership success.Hunger relief efforts showcase the need for global and local teamwork to build long-term resilience.How to Develop Vision into Action As a SuperpowerBarron's superpower is his ability to turn vision into action. As he explained in today's episode, “One of the superpowers I believe I hold is turning a vision into execution.” He shared how his role as President and CEO of World Food Program USA requires him to not only articulate ambitious goals but also lead his team toward achieving them. Barron pointed to collaboration, measurable results, and difficult but mission-centered decisions as integral to his execution-focused leadership.One example of this superpower is Barron's plan to dramatically grow private sector funding for the organization. When he started in 2020, the World Food Program USA raised $19 million annually. This year, it will surpass $130 million, with a goal of reaching $250 million annually in the next five years. Barron emphasized measurable outcomes and strategic investments, supported by pro bono insights from the Boston Consulting Group, to drive results.Tips for Developing Vision into Action as a Superpower:Focus on creating a high-performance, collaborative culture of respect, optimism, and accountability.Set ambitious but achievable goals that push you and your team beyond your comfort zone.Communicate strategy clearly and align your resources to maximize impact.Establish measurable key performance indicators to track progress and stay focused.Be prepared to make tough decisions and accept that not everyone will always agree with you.By following Barron's example and advice, you can make vision into action a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileBarron Segar (he/him):President & CEO, World Food Program USAAbout World Food Program USA: The World Food Programme is the 2020 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate and the world's leading humanitarian organization, saving lives in emergencies and using food assistance to build a pathway to peace, stability and prosperity for people recovering from conflict, disasters and the impact of climate extremes.

Jon Herold opens with the lighter news of China sending two pandas to the Atlanta Zoo before digging into a federal judge's overnight ruling that Trump's White House press ban on CNN, MSNBC, and Politico was likely unconstitutional, questioning whether a judge should be able to override a president's national security determination at all. He also does a live deep dive into CISA's newly released 2026 Election Infrastructure Security Plan, tracing its private sector advisory structure back to the same voting machine vendors and CrowdStrike ties he's flagged before, and lands on his long standing theory of why he believes Trump actually won in 2020 and 2024 despite ongoing election fraud. Jon closes out by addressing another wave of attacks on Badlands host Shipwreck over her stance on voting, reaffirming that hosts are free to say what they believe without censorship. Sponsor reads, conference ticket news, and a lively chat session round out an opinionated Thursday show.

"The foundation of the immigration system and the battles... all of that had been built brick by brick in El Paso, through both Republican and Democratic administrations." —Jazmine UlloaEpisode Description:To much of the country, Interstate 10 reaches El Paso on its way to somewhere else, the city seen as little more than a name on a sign between San Antonio and Phoenix, or as a backdrop for whatever border story dominates the news. Yet its position at a key gap in the mountains, El Paso del Norte, has anchored a pivotal crossroads for as long as people have traversed the continent. The city shares a binational life and generations of family ties with Ciudad Juárez, the older settlement on the southern bank of the Rio Grande. The two have been bound together since long before the U.S.-Mexico War placed an international boundary between them, a boundary whose precise course remained contested for decades.In El Paso: Five Families and One Hundred Years of Blood, Migration, Race, and Memory, New York Times national reporter Jazmine Ulloa returns to her hometown to tell its story through the lives of five families across a century. In that time, El Paso has been a testbed and proving ground for U.S. border and immigration policy, and the lives of its residents chart the complicated motives, successes and failures, from the establishment of the Border Patrol in the 1920s to today's Department of Homeland Security. It is a history worth understanding now, as the biggest shifts in national immigration policy play out most pointedly along the I-10 corridor.The book was inspired by a tragedy. On August 3, 2019, a gunman drove to El Paso from the Dallas area and killed 23 people at a Walmart, and later admitted choosing a border city to dissuade Hispanic immigration. Ulloa, then covering national politics for The Boston Globe, was on a plane home within a day. From the memorial that had sprung up in the Walmart parking lot, she could hear the traffic on the nearby Interstate 10. The sound that had once called her to leave became a reason to return, to understand the place she came from.In this episode, she joins Duke Reiter to discuss what she found, why she considers the comparison between El Paso and Ellis Island imperfect yet useful, and why the Ten Across region is such a revealing lens on immigration. This is where migration, enforcement and the question of who belongs are felt first and most intensely. What takes shape here tends to reach the rest of the country. As Ulloa argues, every city is now El Paso.Relevant Articles and ResourcesEl Paso: Five Families and One Hundred Years of Blood, Migration, Race, and MemoryREPORT: "Border Control: Revised Strategy Is Showing Some Positive Results""Jazmine Ulloa on 'El Paso: Five Families and One Hundred Years of Blood, Migration, Race, and Memory'"Relevant Ten Across Conversations PodcastsKyle Paoletta on American Oasis and the Southwest's Claim on the American StoryTwo Texas Cities Reexamining Data Center Deals, with Robert Moore of El Paso MattersAlternative Visions of the Southern U.S. Border Yesterday, Tomorrow and TodayCreditsHost: Duke ReiterProducer and editor: Bryce CristianoResearch and support provided by: Kate Carefoot, Rae Ulrich, and Sabine ButlerGuest Bio:Jazmine Ulloa is a national reporter for The New York Times.

Mary and Andrew begin by addressing President Trump banning CNN, MS NOW and POLITICO from White House grounds. Andrew calls the move “blatantly unconstitutional,” making an allusion to Nazi Germany and noting that the control of the free press is “the tool of autocrats”: “‘You will believe what I tell you and you will see only what I want you to see,'” he summarizes. Then, the co-hosts move to Trump's “vanity projects,” beginning with what they call the “Arc de Trumph” — a proposed 250-foot arch in Washington DC that Trump says will serve as a military complex. Then, more on the Kennedy Center drama: a federal judge has blocked Trump's name from being added to the building, after which Trump stated that the building will stay closed and without necessary renovations until that decision is reversed. Plus, several organizations file two lawsuits aimed at preemptively keeping federal agents from polling locations.

Can a political leader control the narrative by locking out reporters, or does cutting off access always backfire?When an insider White House correspondent pulls back the curtain, the real story isn't just about hostile press briefings—it's about the quiet, high-stakes battle to pull facts out of a closed-off room. This discussion cuts through the political theater to examine accountability, power, and the true health of the First Amendment.Michael Steele breaks down what actually happens behind the scenes when access is weaponized, why journalistic integrity is harder to maintain than ever, and the strange paradox of a strategy that attacks the press while relying on it for survival.Catch Michael Steele on The Weeknight Mondays - Fridays at 7pm EST on MSNBC: https://www.msnbc.com/weeknightFollow Michael on X: https://x.com/MichaelSteeleFollow Michael on Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/michaelsteele.bsky.socialFollow Michael on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chairman_steele/Follow Michael on Threads: https://www.threads.net/@chairman_steeleListen to The Michael Steele Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-michael-steele-podcast/id1412905534Watch The Michael Steele Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJNKzTkCZE9uNqPiKYw5eU5YkS_mMsr6oIf you enjoyed this, be sure to share it with a friend!

Between the January 6th Committee subpoenaing Trump's inner circle and the Biden Administration saying they'll turn over details of Trump phone calls during the insurrection, Democrats have finally whipped out the big guns. This latest phase could prove disastrous not only for Trump but for the GOP in general as they cling to the former President.

Today's Headlines: Europe is preparing for war, or so it seems — the official government accounts of France, Germany, the UK, and Switzerland all posted cryptic warnings about imminent conflict, the UK told citizens to stockpile food and water for the "most dangerous period in decades," Germany is preparing hospitals for Russian attacks, and Poland's PM warned Russia could launch disguised drone strikes on NATO countries. Meanwhile, the US, Denmark, and Greenland signed a security agreement at the UN General Assembly giving the US and NATO shared responsibility for Greenland's defense to keep China and Russia out — though the terms are vague and giving Trump any role in Arctic security seems like a gamble. On the war beat — five internal sources say at least 22 service members have died plus three contractors, versus the 18 publicly disclosed — which also affects what survivor benefits families receive. The US military's AI almost started a war with China after an AI intelligence report falsely identified a Chinese ship as carrying nuclear weapons components, and only one official double-checking prevented a strike. An ICE agent shot a Venezuelan DoorDash driver twice in the back during a traffic stop in Austin — he survived but doctors couldn't remove the bullet because ICE was in a hurry to take him into custody — making him one of more than 20 people shot by ICE since Trump took office. Speaking of Trump, he banned CNN, MSNBC, and Politico from the White House press pool, all three sued, and every other major outlet halted White House coverage in solidarity. Thousands formed a human chain around the Kennedy Center to protest its takeover as over a dozen staff were laid off. Trump fantasized about banning fishing to extort the Bass Pro Shops owner and revealed his DC arch will double as a military complex with snipers, drones, and ammunition storage. And Lauren Boebert is facing an ethics complaint alleging affairs with three staffers and a $200,000 hush payment, which she denied.

Bill helms a two-part podcast featuring science and technology journalist Jacob Ward and Mother Jones's David Corn. Ward discusses escalating public warnings from AI industry leaders, arguing fears of self-aware “Terminator” AI are less likely than harms from misuse, poor control, and mistakes, citing examples of AI-assisted toxin research, targeting systems, and privacy invasion; he says meaningful regulation, legal liability, and careful U.S.-China negotiations are needed, and critiques Donald Trump's dismissal of AI concerns. Corn discusses his book “How Russia Won, Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin and the Fight for America ” contending Russia has waged gray-zone information warfare against the U.S. since 2016 to weaken the West and benefit Trump, describing continued disinformation efforts, Trump's favorable treatment of Putin, and episodes involving Giuliani, alleged Russian agents, and January 6 as a major victory for delegitimizing U.S. democracy.To follow Jacob Ward's work, go to TheRipCurrent.com and for David's new book, go to HowRussiaWon.com.

In this episode of The Joe Concha Show, Joe breaks down President Trump revoking White House special access for CNN, MSNBC, and Politico, dissecting the media's double standards and past calls to ban Fox News. The episode switches gears to celebrate Bill Murray's 76th birthday with legendary movie highlights and honors retiring NY Mets broadcasting icon Howie Rose. Plus, Joe tackles the latest cultural absurdities—from Colin Kaepernick comparing the NFL Combine to a slave trade to Trump poking fun at RFK Jr.'s workout regimen and ultra-skinny ties, and Illinois Governor JB Pritzker dodging questions on controversial Twitch streamers.

COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN - SEASON 5 EPISODE 7 A-Block (SPECIAL COMMENT): I confess - I fell for it. Trump banned CNN and MS Now from the White House and I immediately thought: the rest of the media finally, FINALLY, has to walk out and not give this bastard any further coverage. No - I was wrong. Then I thought: he ADMITS “we took the freedom of speech away.” And I thought: it IS the most blatant attack on the 1st Amendment in the history of our country And it should – it WILL – it MUST inspire even this nation’s somnambulant media to rise up as one and for once use its power to fight back – to defend not their jobs, but their country. No. I was wrong. On second thought, I realized this was a set-up. Trump has picked fights with Iran, with Canada, the EU, over oil, over tariffs, over hockey, over arches, over the Kennedy Center - and he's lost them all. He needs a fight against a weak opponent who will fold up when the first punch lands. It's his only chance to salvage the midterms. Weak opponent? Who will fold up? When the first punch lands? That's our White House press corps! I'm asking them to do what comes naturally to them - do nothing. Nothing until after Trump gets fricasseed in the midterms. Don't give him the fight he needs. Then, humiliate him. And at this rate he is going to get fricasseed. 97% chance the Democrats take the house, 65% the Democrats take the Senate, Democrats winning all the key Senate races (the one in North Carolina by FIFTEEN points). Let's not shoot off our big bazoos and snatch defeat from the jaws of Trump's defeat. Also: he's threatening Iran again, the Greenland deal is just a climbdown, and if the 25-story D.C. Arch (a life-sized reproduction of Trump's ego) weren't already bad enough, he's added a platform for snipers and a staging ground for drones. Because that's what you need next to a major airport. B-Block (38:00) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: King Charles, some rando on Threads who thinks the Democrats are admitting "illegal ALLENS" and Puck media guy Dylan Byers, not only carrying water for the disaster that is Bari Weiss, but now with new reported financial conflicts of interest whenever he covers CBS (The Conservative Brainwashing System). C-Block (51:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: MS NOW is in the news for being too political and as the founder of the only iteration of it or MSNBC that succeeded, I find this infuriating - and ironic. During my first stint there in 1997-98 we were so non-political and so ultra-tabloid that I walked in one day and the rundown said our lead story was an advance look at the publication of "The Farmers' Almanac" and our guest was its publisher. Live. Lead. FARMERS. ALMANAC. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On a Saturday night episode of Razor Wire, Fitz, McShane, and Jefe banter about Fitz injuring himself before the show and joking about hiring a “show fluffer,” then pivot into beer talk, reviewing Lucky Envelope Brewing's Pumpkin Emoji Spiced Cream Stout and Tin Barn Brewing's 12% “Six by Six” anniversary quad IPA, later adding KCBC's Zocktoberfest lager and Deschutes' port barrel-aged Black Butte 38 imperial porter. They shout out listeners, recommend James Graves' podcast “How to Survive Teaching, The Zombie Apocalypse and Other Natural Disasters,” and rave about the “Dungeon Crawler Carl” audiobook series and narrator Jeff Hays. The show then dives into a critique of “AI doom” narratives, arguing nonprofits like METR and groups tied to effective altruism are industry-linked, donor-funded, and used as a familiar COVID-era playbook to push regulation, shape media coverage, and seek government liability protection; they highlight claims about media outlets being funded through fellowships and discuss a Netflix-adjacent AI documentary trailer as fear-mongering. They react to Paula White's tithing appeal as tasteless, celebrate Trump banning CNN, MSNBC, and Politico from the White House press environment while airing commentary from Link Lauren, and cover “troop movement” talk including U.S. space weapons and speculation about rivals. Jefe delivers a farm report on Darwin's frog males incubating eggs in a vocal sac, and they discuss an Australian 2032 Olympic rowing venue planned on a crocodile-filled river. They dismiss ongoing UFO “disclosure” as noise, then highlight a feel-good segment on Neuralink enabling an ALS patient to communicate “I love you,” using it to contrast hopeful tech with propaganda. They also discuss quantum navigation without GPS and question the Stephen Hawking public narrative, suggesting translation/ghostwriting concerns and connecting skepticism to broader distrust in media and science.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/razor-wire-news--5683729/support.www.razorwirenews.com

The whole world can see Trump trying to control information about his presidency. We know from history that... "When empires or authoritarian regimes are under threat or fall, it's common for the press to become an early casualty. Controlling the flow of information is crucial for those in power, and when that power is challenged, media censorship, suppression, or manipulation often intensifies." (savejournalism.com) We shine a spotlight on Trump's decision to remove CNN from its scheduled role as the television pool representative for the White House press corps. The move breaks with decades of precedent and follows Trump's announcement that CNN, MS NOW, and Politico are banned from the White House. While Trump cries "fake news," the rest of the world sees a man scared of the truth closing in. The amazing Sarah Kendzior will join us. She is a best selling author, scholar and journalist.

On Friday's Mark Levin Show, there are seven Democratic Jewish Senators, including Chuck Schumer and John Ossoff who embrace Jew hatred and antisemitism, putting party and political interests ahead of what is moral and right. It's simple: Jew haters are America haters. In the face of the grave threat to Jews both here and around the world, these Jewish Senators side with Islamists and Marxists like Abdul El-Sayed and Hasan Piker. The difference between Democrats and Republicans is the Democrats embrace antisemitism while the GOP rejects it. Most Republicans have disavowed the Woke Reich antisemites like Tucker Carlson. These Senate Jews think they can make common cause with Islamists? They are disgusting. Later, President Trump's decision to remove outlets such as Politico, CNN, and MSNBC from the White House is criticized as authoritarian, but historical context, as documented in "Unfreedom of the Press',  is important when making such judgments. FDR, who is admired by much of the modern media, the Democratic Party, and historians, was actually the most authoritarian president in American history. FDR is praised despite this because of his socialist views. Comparisons with past presidents are necessary when evaluating Trump's actions. Learn more about your ad choices.

COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN - SEASON 5 EPISODE 6 A Block (SPECIAL COMMENT): We're actually under-reacting to the threat from A.I. because it is not just 'A.I. Will Kill Us All' - it is 'TRUMP'S A.I. Will Kill Us All.' Trump is up to his each of his 27 chins in his own investments in A-I; for all we know he's also thinking A-I might fix the midterms for him; humanity is at risk because Trump and his idiot sons and his cabinet members and his foreign fixers and everybody in the Epstein Files and the whole kaleidoscope of corruption is thinking about one thing only - not how to protect mankind but how to protect their money. Humanity is at risk, because Artificial intelligence is meeting Trump's total LACK of intelligence Also: when Trump's SkyNet gains sentience it will get U.S. weapons in space to use against us. And remember the Epstein Files? Trump Junior's new wife mainlines back not just to Putin's flunkies but to one of Epstein's bankers: her own father. Speaking of Putin's flunkies: Putin is why the National Hockey League must ban its all time leading goal scorer. And the 60 Minutes ratings are in – they’re down 21% so it’ll now be called 47 MINUTES. Well done CBS – The Conservative Brainwashing System. B-Block (40:00) THE RETURN OF THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: The latest in the endless parade of football quarterbacks and TV pitchmen, Arch Manning, recommends and busts out laughing at an AI video of his college coach knocking a woman reporter to the ground. Another Michigan Republican candidate thinks God is sending him messages for Dan Bongino. Lee Greenwood's latest business deal with Trump: his wife is gonna be an Ambassaduh. And Kash Patel leading the FBI: the Federal Bestiality Investigators? C-Block (58:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: The terrible truth about TV newscasters and the real draw of the profession for many of them - the free hair care. The whole thing clarified itself to me when I discovered that the gifted craftsman who cut my hair when I was in radio in 1980 is still working and is still a gifted craftsman.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The mail-in ballot saga has come to an end — for now. Mary and Andrew detail yesterday's Supreme Court decision rejecting President Trump's restrictions on mail-in voting, which they call “good news” in the fight against election interference. “Knock it off,” Andrew says to paraphrase the Supreme Court: “we are not engaging in this.” Then, the co-hosts delve into two more examples of what they consider attempts by government bodies to meddle in the midterms, the first being Missouri's failed redistricting effort as the Supreme Court rejects the state's new Trump-backed congressional district map. The second: the Solicitor General's emergency motion to stay an injunction on the Trump administration's SAVE database, urging the court to restore the immigration verification system that was blocked by a lower court. Plus, the prosecutor who led the “grand conspiracy” investigation into Trump's political enemies earlier this year has left the probe. And former CIA Director John Brennan preemptively goes to court ahead of the government's likely prosecution against him.
