Podcasts about overreach

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.

Retired senior advocate Chris Marnewick spent six years on the Pistorius trial record and tells Alec Hogg the conviction should have been culpable homicide, not murder, blaming social media groupthink for a "big lie" of gender-based violence. Analyst Jasmine Opperman reveals 14 active bitcoin wallets in South Africa channelling funds to Hamas. Financial Mail's Rob Rose unpacks how the Competition Commission wrongly named salesman Bryan Brownrigg in its rand-rigging case, wrecking a decade of his life. TymeBank's Coenraad Jonker says AI will enable bankers, not replace them, and Sakeliga's Piet le Roux takes employment equity quotas towards international courts.

The updates just keep coming. On Sunday, the Trump administration returned to the Supreme Court to ask for more control over mail-in ballots, coming two days after U.S. District Judge Indira Talwani's order blocking the government from implementing parts of the new Postal Service rule. Mary and Andrew analyze the case's implications as states begin sending out their ballots ahead of the midterms before turning to another update: a preliminary injunction issued in the CASA Inc. v. Trump case on birthright citizenship. Then, the co-hosts turn to the ICE agent involved in the shooting of a Venezuelan man during Trump's “Operation Metro Surge” in Minneapolis, who is now being federally charged with making false statements to the FBI about the event. They call this “good news” — an instance of the federal government choosing to intervene in an “outrageous” case instead of leaving it up to the states' discretion. Plus, the Supreme Court allows the construction of Trump's White House ballroom to continue.A Note to Listeners: As the 2026 midterm elections heat up, MS NOW is headed to the Lone Star State.

A lot can happen in a week. Mary and Andrew begin with the most recent movement in the court battle against President Trump's three-tiered mail-in voting executive order. Last week, Judge Talwani issued a fresh injunction blocking one provision of the EO centered around the Postal Service, two days after the Supreme Court lifted a block from the same judge, saying the provisions in the EO could not be applied to November's midterms. The co-hosts affirm that this fight is far from over before moving to two more updates from cases they talked about last week: a motion brought by Mary's ICAP team alongside others challenging the 2026 birthright citizenship EO and a decision on Minnesota's effort to extradite an ICE agent from Texas, after he was charged with shooting Julio Sosa-Celis through the door of a Minnesota home. Next, a win for Anthropic after a federal judge ruled against the Pentagon, saying it acted illegally in labeling the AI company a “supply chain risk.” Plus: a moving video from an active-duty Marine Colonel pleading for an Afghan national to return to the US after he was deported- despite his asylum status after his family helped the US military in Afghanistan. A video edition of this episode is available on YouTube now.

"Israel is in a situation of kind of spectacular military virtuosity, but also strategic impoverishment. You cannot kill everybody." On today's bank holiday bonus episode of Iran: the Latest, Venetia Rainey speaks to historian Simon Sebag-Montefiore to get a historian's view of the US-Israel-Iran war. Simon argues that Donald Trump's biggest mistake was not stopping after 2025's Operation Midnight Hammer, and that Benjamin Netanyahu is leading his country into a potential intra-Jewish civil war. Plus, why the Iranian regime is a Mahdist-praetorian oligarchy, how the geopolitical concept of "the Middle East" became obsolete, and which dictators from the region's modern history haunt him. Simon Sebag Montefiore's new book, The Cauldron: The Making of the Modern Middle East, is out now.HighlightsTrump's mistakes, Israel's overreach and the end of the ‘Middle East'Historian and author Simon Sebag-Montefiore on the Iran warCONTRIBUTORS:Venetia Rainey, co-host and executive producer @venetiaraineySimon Sebag-Montefiore, historian and author @simonmontefioreWATCH US ON YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJnf_DDTfIVAif-vifC6F2aoPB8GIw6dkCONTENT REFERENCED:Simon Sebag Montefiore: Appeasing radical activists will make the West ungovernablehttps://www.telegraph.co.uk/books/authors/simon-sebag-montefiore-the-cauldron-interview/Simon Sebag Montefiore: Starmer's foreign policy risks rewarding aggressive extremistshttps://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/09/07/montefiore-starmers-foreign-policy-rewards-extremists/Winner Best News and Analysis Podcast - Publisher Podcast Awards 2026Nominated Podcast of the Year - Society of Editors News Podcasts Awards 2026Nominated Best News, Politics and Current Affairs - British Podcast Awards 2026The Telegraph, Winner Podcast Publisher of the Year 2026 - Publisher Podcast Awards 2026Audio Producer: Joleen GoffinVideo Producer: Max BowerResearcher and Social Producer: Anna HindmarshStudio Operator: Andy WatsonExecutive Producer: Venetia Rainey ► Sign up to our most popular newsletter, From the Editor.

According to Mary and Andrew, recent moves by President Trump's administration have been following a pattern: “If at first you don't succeed, try try again.” The co-hosts begin by breaking down the flurry of news surrounding mail voting, starting with Monday afternoon's decision by the Supreme Court to allow President Trump's executive order curtailing mail voting to proceed, though not issuing a decision on the merits of the order. They discuss that decision in conjunction with the Postal Service's announcement on Friday for a final rule that would comply with the executive order, a move that Andrew calls a proxy for the government to “have the Postal Service act in a way that has a clearly disproportionate impact on certain voters.” Then, a conversation about birthright citizenship after a motion was filed yesterday rejecting Trump's executive orders that attempt to limit the legal principle. Plus, an analysis of the Second and Ninth Circuit Court's rulings disqualifying U.S. Attorneys that were improperly appointed by Trump and a quick nod to Minnesota suing the governor of Texas for not extraditing an ICE agent accused of shooting a man in Minneapolis.  Tune in next week as we switch to Wednesday morning releases — and video editions of Main Justice available on YouTube.

Mary and Andrew begin this week by addressing Todd Blanche's “Meet the Press” interview with Kristen Welker, where, among other things, the newly appointed Attorney General proclaimed that “no attorney general should ever pledge” to act independently of the White House, despite decades of post-Watergate reforms. Keeping in the Blanche vicinity, the co-hosts detail a complaint filed by former Michigan AUSA Sunita Doddamani, who alleged she was fired without cause simply for doing her job prosecuting FACE Act violations. Then, a dive into revelations of undercover agents targeting Minnesota nonprofit organizations as part of an investigation that led to indictments of protestors that, in Mary's view, included “a whole lot of First Amendment protected activity.” Plus, Trump changes a Treasury Department rule making it harder to find fraud and illegal activity and asks the Supreme Court to let him keep building the ballroom while they appeal a lower court block. Last up, an unsatisfying end to litigation against the administration over their use of the Alien Enemies Act after the 5th Circuit en banc panel dismissed the case.

A museum for things that aren't gone yet. Roxana Nasoi of Logos walks through the Museum of Civil Liberties: five halls, twenty major events, a record kept where it can't be quietly edited. Phase one of a past, present, and future campaign. "Liberties, not rights." Roxana explains the word choice: rights imply something that can be granted and revoked. The halls cover control of money, the surveillance state, censorship, the failure of voice, and systems of control. The timing writes itself. The show aired August 14. The museum's centerpiece entry is August 15, 1971, when Nixon suspended the convertibility of the dollar into gold: fifty-five years ago, to the day after recording. Why a civil liberties project starts with money. Quoting Logos cofounder Jarrad Hope: the state offers money, property, law, identity, and governance. Bitcoin fixed the money. The other four are still hanging. Suze's Euston station moment. Talk of the surveillance state stayed abstract until a delayed train left her people-watching under what felt like hundreds of cameras. The room digs into why invisible threats only become real through shocks. KYC that doesn't stop crime. Suze lays out her case: by the Chainalysis figures she cites, under 1% of illicit activity moves through "crypto" and just 0.14% through Bitcoin, while illicit flows in traditional finance hold at 2 to 5% of global GDP, unchanged across decades of FATF rules. A rare rollback. The room welcomes this week's Treasury move to permanently end Corporate Transparency Act ownership reporting for US companies and delete the filed data: the opposite ending from the breached Liechtenstein register discussed yesterday. The freedom tech field guide. Roxana's practical stack: Umbrel home servers, mesh networks like Meshtastic that carried protests through internet shutdowns in India, mixnets like Nym versus VPNs, Faraday bags, offline second devices, and local AI. A chess app as a philosophy lesson. She built one in a weekend on Logos: Stockfish engine, real-time play, and an ephemeral chat that leaves no record anywhere once the game ends. Private by architecture, not by promise. Who adopts freedom tech before it's necessary? Brandon Quittem returns to his Myers-Briggs survey: analysts are ten times overrepresented among Bitcoiners, and maybe everyone wired to get obsessed is already here. The next wave joins by social consensus, not rabbit holes.

Will Rosenzwieg was an Assistant US Attorney in Florida working on a significant Medicare fraud case when he was summarily fired by then AG Pam Bondi, citing Article II. He's now suing AG Todd Blanche and the Justice Department. His attorney, Margaret Donovan, joins this episode to share how a years-old blog Rosenzwieg had written criticizing Trump—before he was ever a federal employee—led to his dismissal, hours after it surfaced on social media via a right-wing influencer. “It's remarkable that the government wouldn't recognize what is so flagrantly a First Amendment violation,” Donovan says. After detailing the complaint, Mary and Andrew move to Todd Blanche's confirmation, before examining a ruling by an Alabama judge rejecting a motion to dismiss the case against the Southern Poverty Law Center on vindictive grounds. Next, they look at the latest in Trump's White House ballroom case after an appeals court upheld the block on its construction last Friday. Plus: a nod to his two new executive orders targeting birthright citizenship.

Frankie Val warns you up front: no feel good material tonight. This is a demons and schizophrenia special. Returning guests Jerry Marzinski and Judy Gregerson, a former schizophrenic turned deliverance practitioner, share fresh cases, including a woman visited by talking orbs, and press the show's recurring theory that not every inner voice is your own. Frankie runs live audience polls (most say yes, they have heard a thought that did not feel like theirs) and plays clips from an Instagram creator narrating his own hallucinations in real time. Before the guests, expect a detour through Reddit covens trying to hex Trump, MAGA mages casting counter spells, and a raffle featuring a hyperinflated 1923 Weimar papermark to commemorate the coming $40 trillion debt. The back half turns practical and grim: police in Wisconsin using Flock cameras to track a man across state lines and build a pretext search, plus the rising public resistance to the sprawling Flock network and the specter of fabricated, synthetic crime.

an unprecedented pace—but according to Joshua Hale, you don't have to become dependent on the very systems reshaping society. In this insightful conversation, Joshua joins Michael Jaco to discuss the rapid rise of AI, Big Tech, digital surveillance, and practical strategies for maintaining independence in an increasingly technology-driven world. A business strategist, consumer AI expert, and founder of JH Media & Consulting, Joshua explains why he believes AI can be an incredible tool when used wisely—but also why it's important to build skills, businesses, and communities that don't rely entirely on centralized technology. Throughout the discussion, Joshua shares his perspective on: • The rapid evolution of artificial intelligence • Big Tech's growing influence over everyday life • The concept of a digital "panopticon" and why awareness matters • Using AI as a tool instead of becoming controlled by it • Building resilient businesses and communities outside centralized systems • Creating balance through technology, self-reliance, and real-world connections Joshua also shares practical advice for entrepreneurs, business owners, and anyone looking to navigate the AI revolution while maintaining personal freedom and resilience.

The first ticket on Mary and Andrew's agenda: the latest on Todd Blanche's confirmation. After prodding from two Republican Senators, Blanche released a Sunday night statement allegedly rescinding the $1.776 “Anti-Weaponization Fund” to pacify their concerns. And by all measures, it worked. But in Andrew's estimation, the statement was “the world's smallest fig leaf,” with both hosts noting that the “settlement agreement” can only be changed in writing if signed by both parties. Mary calls it “basically a press statement” rather than a legal order. Then, they turn to former FBI Director James Comey's filing of multiple motions to dismiss his “Seashell” indictment, including one on the grounds of vindictive and selective prosecution. They detail court filings that show an array of issues with the case, including surveillance of him and his wife by the Secret Service. Next, Andrew and Mary detail why Jeanine Pirro's Reflecting Pool case against Olympian David Hearn fell apart, after a disastrous rush to charge before the facts were in. And last up: Trump asks the Supreme Court to hear an appeal over E. Jean Caroll's $83.3 million defamation verdict.

Text "freedom" to (202) 918-5348 In this episode of American Potential, special guest host Heather Andrews sits down with Utah Attorney General Derek Brown to unpack one of the biggest constitutional battles in the West—who should control America's public lands. With more than 70% of Utah's land managed by the federal government, Brown explains why states are pushing back and what it means for local communities, economic development, and land management. He breaks down the core principles of federalism and why decisions should be made closer to the people most affected. The conversation also highlights a major recent court victory that places limits on presidential power when designating national monuments—marking an important step toward restoring balance between state and federal authority. This episode dives into the real-world impact of government overreach—and why Utah's fight could shape the future of land rights across the country.

Mary and Andrew begin this week by addressing the Department of Justice dropping the subpoenas they ordered against New York Times journalists who reported on security concerns regarding President Trump's new Qatari-government-gifted Air Force One jet, noting that the attempt to subpoena the writers speaks to a failed effort of “chilling and intimidating” other reporters. But still, there were even more subpoenas: last week, the DOJ filed subpoenas for 14 major law firms as part of an ongoing lawsuit between the American Bar Association (ABA) and the Executive Office of the President, which Mary and Andrew believe is an effort by the government to try and “get the law firms to pressure the ABA to drop this lawsuit.” They also touch on an update to journalist Katie Phang's lawsuit against the federal government over Epstein files redactions and address Jack Smith's criminal referral by House Judiciary Committee Chair Jim Jordan. Plus, two immigration-related cases: a judge's decision to throw out a DOJ lawsuit challenging Minnesota immigration laws and an appeal court's decision to reverse a lower court decision releasing Pro-Palestinian activist Mohsen Mahdawi.

Last week, all eyes were on Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche's confirmation hearing to lead the Justice Department. Mary and Andrew begin with their takeaways: from Blanche's “evasive, hyper-technical non-responses” to why his close relationship with Donald Trump is problematic, noting a moment where Blanche referred to himself as “his lawyer” and then quickly corrected himself — which Mary called a Freudian slip. They then turn to Trump's Thursday night address, where he claimed that U.S. elections have been compromised for years. Separating fact from fiction, the co-hosts look at how Trump's undermining of public confidence may affect the upcoming midterms. Mary and Andrew also highlight reporting from the New York Times indicating a slew of cases brought by ICE against protesters and immigrants are failing the sniff test in court. Plus, an update on former Columbia graduate student Mahmoud Khalil, who recently filed a lawsuit alleging the government and others were part of an effort to suppress criticism of Israel from pro-Palestinian demonstrators.

On this Wednesday, July 15th edition of The Marc Cox Morning Show, the crew tackles it all — from the escalating standoff with Iran and the Strait of Hormuz blockade, to a jaw-dropping House hearing where a UCSF medical school chancellor couldn't confirm whether a non-biological woman can have a baby. Congresswoman Mary Miller joins twice to demand accountability from woke medical schools and push the Senate to pass the SAVE Act, while Heritage Foundations Andrew Harding breaks down the military and diplomatic chess match with Tehran. Locally, St. Charles County elections candidate Jen Olson fires back at a politically motivated smear campaign, Governor Kehoe signs the Born Alive Abortion Survivors Protection Act into law, and Megan Green cashes in a controversial taxpayer settlement. Business coverage brings the best inflation report in six years courtesy of Fox Business's Taylor Riggs, plus a tragic boat sinking near Alcatraz, a Chilis employee fired over a name dispute, and Joe Bidens rambling memoir announcement rounding out the laughs.

With Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche's confirmation hearing set to begin midweek, Andrew and Mary use this episode to look at the totality of his tenure at the Justice Department, detailing example after example of how — despite his role as the chief lawyer for the United States — he is still functioning as the de facto personal lawyer for the president. They start things off by dissecting a deeply consequential and searing opinion from District Judge Kathleen Williams over Trump's IRS lawsuit, effectively finding, in Mary's telling, that it “was collusion. It was the president being on both sides of that case, and it's no adversity between the parties.” Then, the co-hosts take a broader gaze into what Blanche has done: his handling of the Epstein files and Ghislaine Maxwell, the ongoing investigations and attempted prosecutions of Trump's political enemies and how he has used the DOJ as the president's personal law firm. Mary and Andrew also review the Justice Department's recent actions with Blanche at the helm, including an example from the past week of the ongoing “assault on journalists”: subpoenaing New York Times journalists who wrote about the jet gifted to the US by the Qatari government.

The practice of people self-identifying as Indigenous has come into sharp focus after a number of high-profile cases of “pretendians” claiming to be Indigenous without evidence. However, far less attention has been given to Indigenous people being wrongly labelled as pretendians. In a recent article for Policy Options, Debbie Martin argues that the rush for Indigenous identity policies at universities has led to people with legitimate claims to Indigeneity being swept up in policies that will cause lasting harm. Debbie Martin is Inuk and a member of Nunatukavut. She is a professor in the school of health and human performance at Dalhousie University and the Canada Research Chair in Indigenous Peoples' health and well-being. We spoke in November.

Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: Before his death, Barney Frank said overreach by the left is alienating moderates and setting back Democrats. Do you agree? Michael reflects on the life and political legacy of Barney Frank, the pioneering congressman and liberal icon who, in his final interviews, warned that Democrats risk alienating mainstream voters through ideological overreach and rigid litmus tests. Drawing from past conversations with Frank, Michael explores the late lawmaker's argument that successful political movements require strategy, sequencing, and coalition-building — not purity tests. The episode also revisits Frank's wit, groundbreaking role in Congress, and his candid assessment of today's Democratic Party at a pivotal political moment. Listen here, then vote!

Instead of deferring to the executive on matters of White House security and operations, the court is demanding Congress or the court itself micromanage the president's own residence. The D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals did issue a temporary stay until April 17, but only on the most superficial grounds, failing to recognize the inherent Constitutional inadequacy of the lawsuit itself.  This only underscores how shaky the district court's reasoning is—yet the underlying message remains: activist judges believe they, not the elected president, get the final say on executive-branch real estate, as on everything else.Join me as I translate the actual court filings into plain English, expose the thin legal arguments behind the injunction, and show exactly how this power grab threatens every future president's ability to manage the White House. If you want to understand why the judiciary's meddling here is constitutionally dangerous—and what it means for the balance of power—watch until the end.Join me LIVE at 11 AM ET as I break it all down!Episode #1288.

For a significant plurality of those who voted for Donald Trump in 2024, it all really comes down to one thing. Owning the Libs. So what price is anyone willing to pay for that? The question "at what cost" doesn't belong to one side of the aisle. In this solo episode of TP&R Uninterrupted, Corey Nathan turns the lens on both Trump loyalists and progressive purists, arguing that the price of performative politics is being paid by everyone. Drawing on the More in Common "Beyond MAGA" study, real conversations with friends and family who took the GFY vote in 2024, and the electoral evidence from Virginia and New Jersey, Corey makes the case that civic renewal requires something harder than winning arguments: it requires welcoming people back in without making them confess their sins first.

Corey traces how years of condescension, finger-wagging, and political shaming drove thoughtful people — including his own son and a close Latino friend — not toward Trump's policies, but toward a defiant rejection of the people lecturing them. Understanding that pathway is the first step toward reversing it. The math makes the reluctant right the ball game. The More in Common "Beyond MAGA" study identifies the Reluctant Right as roughly 20% of Trump's 2024 coalition — more than 15 million voters. In a country where House districts are decided by 333 votes, that's not a rounding error. It's the margin. Progressive overreach has a price tag too. The same "at what cost" question Corey puts to Trump loyalists applies to the activist left. Performative purity tests, canceling the insufficiently orthodox, and demanding ideological confession before welcoming people into the coalition aren't just annoying — they're losing strategies with receipts. Loyalty to Trump has an itemized bill. From Pam Bondi's congressional hearing burn book to Marco Rubio's Oval Office silence while Zelensky was demeaned, Corey walks through the specific transactions made by people who had everything to lose. These aren't rhetorical questions. They're the same question, applied to people who answered it in public. The Buckley model points the way forward. What the pro-democracy coalition needs to do is what William F. Buckley did with the Birchers: marginalize the voices making the coalition unelectable, and when someone from the reluctant right shows up at the party, say come on in, the water's warm.

He takes on government overreach, high taxes, and burdensome regulations, arguing they're crushing opportunity for everyday Americans. O'Donnell makes the case for an economy where one good job should be enough to support a family, while highlighting policies like no tax on tips as a game-changer for workers in places like Las Vegas. The conversation also touches on his support for President Trump's economic agenda and why he believes now is the moment for political outsiders to step up and lead.You can learn more about Marty O'Donnell by visiting his campaign website or giving him a follow on X: @MartyTheElder // www.martyforcongress.voteSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
