Podcasts about Republican Party

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

And even in the final, birthright citizenship case, what is remarkable is not that Trump lost, but how close he came to winning that one too.Guest: Jay Willis, editor-in-chief at Balls and Strikes.

Tucker Carlson recently told a live audience there is “no chance” he will support the Republican Party going forward, saying a party that puts “the interests of a foreign country above those of its own citizens” no longer deserves his vote, despite the fact that he has long branded himself as a lifelong Republican voter and defender. Within a day he praised JD Vance as a “great” candidate and said he would support “the best person,” which the panel sees as a confusing pivot that leaves viewers unsure whether he is actually boycotting the GOP on principle or just repositioning himself above the party while still backing specific Republicans.

Welcome to Last Call, a look at the biggest stories Jim and Greg covered over the past week on the 3 Martini Lunch.This week they discuss Texas U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico's ridiculous comments on whiteness and masculinity, Tucker Carlson leaving the Republican Party, major wins for socialists in New York City congressional races, and a media narrative lamenting the impact of lower crime rates on local businesses.First, they react to Talarico's absurd statements in his latest podcast appearance. His streak of insane woke rhetoric continues as he says that his imagination is limited by his "whiteness and masculinity.” Jim and Greg wonder when the left's obsession with identity will end.Next, Jim and Greg react to Tucker Carlson's exit from the Republican Party. Despite speaking at the 2024 Republican National Convention, Carlson now says he regrets his support for Trump and he denounces the GOP for its "betrayal of the American people.” Jim comments on the erratic state of politics today and both wonder what Tucker's next move might be. Then, they wince as avowed Marxists win the Democratic nomination in three New York City congressional districts. They were all endorsed by socialist NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani. Is this additional proof that open socialists are taking over the Democratic Party or will their radicalism actually help Republicans in November?Finally, they laugh at the media's attempt to frame falling crime rates as a negative development. Oakland, California has seen a significant reduction in car break-ins, but some reporting has focused on the impact that fewer repairs could have on auto glass businesses. Jim and Greg discuss how the coverage unintentionally falls for one of economics' most basic fallacies. Please visit our great sponsors:AG1Visit https://DrinkAG1.com/3ML Get a FREE Morning Person Hat and a FREE AG1 Flavor Sampler in your Welcome Kit with your first AG1 subscription.Fast Growing Trees Better plants, better growing, and an extra 20% off with code MARTINI at https://FastGrowingTrees.com/Martini for a limited time; terms and conditions may apply.QuoMoney is on the line.

No rebranding!  They cashed all those checks with the Tea Party.  Episode 1002 of The Professional Left opens with a pop quiz, and the reveal says everything you need to know about how this particular cycle always ends. Driftglass and Blue Gal trace the long, depressing, and darkly funny history of Republicans who were "done with Trump" until they weren't — Beck, Cruz, Graham, Vance, Ingraham, and a cast of dozens — making the case that what looks like a new political reckoning is actually just the same old rebranding operation being assembled from the same wreckage by the same people. Two classic films provide the episode's organizing metaphors: one about building a new plane out of the pieces of the one that crashed, and one about the uncomfortable truth that you can't put an entire party into a lifeboat when the entire party is the problem. The Republican Party didn't get captured by its worst impulses — it revealed them. Driftglass was also on two other podcasts this week! The Nicole Sandler Show:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NlPMu5Y29QThe Brad Cast with Desi and Digby:  https://bradblog.com/?p=17822 Stay in Touch! Email: proleftpodcast@gmail.com Website: proleftpod.com Support via Patreon: patreon.com/proleftpod or Donate in the Venmo App @proleftpodMail: The Professional Left, PO Box 9133, Springfield, Illinois, 62791Support the show

What should have been a bipartisan housing bill touting affordability has instead become a fight over the Save America Act. Representative Anna Paulina Luna is leading a House conservative blockade, freezing routine procedural votes until the Senate takes up the Trump-backed elections bill. The problem is that the Senate has no path forward. The bill doesn't have the votes, and the Senate isn't about to let the House dictate its agenda. In the meantime, House Republicans are unable to move other priorities, including appropriations and next week's defense policy bill.Luna's leverage comes from one place: Donald Trump. The president canceled the planned signing of the bipartisan housing bill, saying he would not move forward until the Save America Act passes. House Republicans believe Luna's close relationship with Trump is what's keeping the blockade alive. Mike Lee has also pushed Trump to hold the line, arguing that Republican voters need something to get excited about before the midterms and that the Save America Act is that issue.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.The divide inside the Republican Party is becoming clearer. Luna, Lee, and the hardliners argue that if voters gave Republicans the White House and both chambers of Congress, they expect them to fight for election legislation, not immediately explain why it can't pass. The Senate's answer is that the bill doesn't have sixty votes. Their view is that Republicans can either spend weeks arguing over a bill that cannot pass or move on to things they can actually accomplish.I think this has been mishandled by both Speaker Johnson and Leader Thune. Whether or not the entire Save America Act could ever get sixty votes, there are pieces of it that are broadly popular with the American public, particularly voter ID provisions. Those could have been broken out and forced into separate fights. Instead, Republicans have backed themselves into a corner where the House is frozen, the Senate has no incentive to move, and everyone is arguing over tactics instead of making progress.My expectation is that Trump ultimately signs the housing bill. This feels like walking away from the table before signing in the hope of getting something else. He wants movement on the Save America Act. I just don't think he's going to get it.Meanwhile, Iran's Revolutionary Guard reportedly struck the Singapore-flagged cargo ship Ever Lovely as it transited the Strait of Hormuz, raising new doubts about the U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding and the security of commercial shipping through the waterway. No casualties were reported, but the ship was damaged and the International Maritime Organization paused evacuation efforts while reassessing security. My biggest question isn't whether the memorandum itself is good or bad. It's whether any agreement can actually be enforced if there isn't one clear center of leadership in Iran. I honestly don't know who's making the calls, and I'm not sure if anyone else really has a good idea either.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:02:57 - SAVE America Blockade00:11:54 - Iran00:14:16 - Asylum Ruling00:16:29 - James vs. Mamdani00:19:52 - Interview with Tom Merritt01:06:40 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

The podcast is entirely independent media with zero corporate backing. To support the show and unlock the full, uncut Weekender episodes, head over to patreon.com/muckrakepodcast. Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman kick off the weekend edition of the podcast with a look at shocking election results and the intersection of entertainment and modern politics. The discussion covers progressive primary surges, intense establishment pushback, and a bizarre new theory regarding the death of nu metal. The New York Shift: Leftist candidates backed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani secure surprising victories in the New York primaries, including Brad Lander unseating incumbent Dan Goldman. Nick and Jared break down the significance of these primary wins and how a promise to address material conditions is changing the progressive landscape. Establishment Meltdown: The primary results trigger a wave of panic and overreaction from both the right wing and centrist Democrats like Hakeem Jeffries and Jamie Harrison. The discussion outlines an impending stress test for the future principles of the Democratic Party. Trump's Legislative Hostage Situation: Attention turns to the Trump administration as the president blocks a bipartisan housing bill. Jared details how corporate carve-outs allowed the bill to pass, while Trump holds it hostage in a bid to force an end to the filibuster for an anti-voting law. Reflecting Pool Retaliation: Meanwhile, security cracks down at the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool. Surveillance and out-of-state law enforcement are being deployed to manufacture "Antifa culprits" for the peeling paint and algae caused by the administration's own rush job. Tucker's Tweener Turn: Former Fox News host Tucker Carlson makes the rounds claiming he can no longer support the Republican Party. Jared analyzes this shift as a calculated, mercenary move to position himself for a future political comeback. The Woodstock '99 Nu Metal Conspiracy: A viral right-wing theory claims that the elites intentionally killed off nu metal and bands like Limp Bizkit to prevent an angry white male revolution. Nick and Jared debunk this framing, demonstrating how the death of rock was actually driven by corporate monopolies and streaming shifts rather than a cultural Marxist plot. Weekend Reviews & Brain Rot: To wrap up, Nick gives a scathing review of Steven Spielberg's overlong new film Disclosure Day, prompting a trip down memory lane comparing it to Close Encounters of the Third Kind and Arrival. Plus, Jared shares his ongoing psychological torment over a legendary Black Eyed Peas earworm.

John talks about Trump's bizarre hostage situation surrounding a bipartisan housing bill. He dissects Trump's extortion tactics reminiscent of his first impeachment, revealing how the former president continues to manipulate Congress for his own gain. He also highlights how Trump's attempts to hold the housing bill hostage for his own political agenda reflect a troubling pattern of extortion that has become all too familiar. Then, listeners are treated to insights from Bob Cesca who joins the discussion to dissect the motivations behind Trump's behavior and the impact it has on the Republican Party. Next, the God Squad featuring tattooed theologian Dylan Nabor Cruz and pastor Desimber Rose, bring a fresh perspective on progressive Christianity and the intersection of faith and politics. Their candid discussions about religious hypocrisy add another layer of depth to the show, inviting listeners to reflect on the role of faith in contemporary social issues. Then finally, legal analyst Dr. Tracy Pearson is back once again to answer questions from listeners about Trump's legal woes. They also talk about the ongoing war in Ukraine, where John highlights the ingenuity of Ukrainian forces as they turn the tide against a much larger Russian military.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Todd examines the heated confrontation involving Bill Cassidy, the debate over the Senate filibuster, and why requiring proof of citizenship and voter ID has become such a contentious issue.

SCHEDULE JBS, 6-23-2026.1936Alan Greenspan's Legacy and the New Fed Chair. Guest: Elizabeth Peek. This segment reflects on the passing of Alan Greenspan and the transition to Kevin Warsh as Federal Reserve Chair. Peek highlights Warsh's goal to reform data collection and move away from forecasting, favoring real-time data over the traditional, often confusing, communication styles of his predecessors like Greenspan. 1The Resilient US Consumer and AI Infrastructure. Guest: Elizabeth Peek. Despite concerns over tariffs and wars, consumer spending remains robust, fueled by record stock market levels and rising low-end wages. Peek argues against AI alarmism, noting that massive investments in AI infrastructure are creating a surge in blue-collar job demand for skilled trades like welding and construction. 2Critiquing the Memo of Understanding with Iran. Guest: Jonathan Schanzer. Schanzer describes the newly established Memo of Understanding as a "dog's breakfast" that grants the Iranian regime significant sanctions relief and upfront cash. He argues the agreement appears to be an American defeat, particularly regarding the shaky nuclear inspection protocols and the uncertain status of the Strait of Hormuz. 3Hezbollah's Role and the Fog of Middle East Diplomacy. Guest: Jonathan Schanzer. The discussion focuses on Hezbollah as a "wholly owned subsidiary" of Iran, with the IRGC directing its activities in Lebanon. Schanzer criticizes the administration for expecting Israel to adhere to a ceasefire while Iran continues to provoke attacks, labeling the current diplomatic strategy as improvised and potentially harmful. 4Secretary Rubio's Reassurance Mission to Gulf Allies. Guest: Mary Kissel. Secretary of State Marco Rubio travels to the Gulf to reassure the UAE, Kuwait, and Bahrain of U.S. security commitments following Iranian attacks. Kissel criticizes the administration for granting Iran sanctions relief and 60-day exemptions, arguing that the diplomatic effort prioritizes "hope over experience" regarding Iranian nuclear ambitions. 5The Impact of Foreign Policy on Domestic Midterms. Guest: Mary Kissel. Kissel examines whether foreign policy influences American voters, noting it is rare compared to "pocketbook" issues like inflation and interest rates. She warns that adversarial regimes like Iran and China are sophisticated observers of the U.S. electoral calendar and may attempt to influence domestic politics. 6Kevin Warsh's Reformist Vision for the Federal Reserve. Guest: Joseph Sternberg. Sternberg analyzes Kevin Warsh's first FOMC meeting, noting a shift toward shorter policy statements and the removal of the "dot plot" forecasting tool. Warsh is initiating five task forces to reform the Fed's intellectual framework, specifically targeting productivity, data quality, and balance sheet management. 7The Turmoil of British Leadership and the Labour Party. Guest: Joseph Sternberg. This segment explores the potential replacement of Keir Starmer with Andy Burnham as UK Prime Minister. Sternberg argues that Labour's struggles go beyond charisma, involving a lack of clear economic direction and the failure to address core voter concerns like the broken NHS and illegal immigration. 8The Geopolitical Chessboard of the Strait of Hormuz. Guest: Gregory Copley. Copley discusses the power struggles within Iran and the strategic card of the Strait of Hormuz. He notes that while the strait is "more or less open," the situation remains in flux, with regional players like Turkey seeking to thwart Iranian ambitions in the Mediterranean. 9Xi Jinping's Strategic Outreach to North Korea. Guest: Gregory Copley. Xi Jinping's visit to Pyongyang is seen as a move to reassert Chinese influence over North Korea as Kim Jong-un shifts away from communist identity. Kim is positioning himself as an equal to Xi while strengthening his ties with Russia, creating a complex ideological shift in the region. 10British Political Fragmentation and the Immigration Crisis. Guest: Gregory Copley. Britain has seen seven prime ministers in ten years due to political fragmentation over illegal immigration and European relations. Copley suggests that the Labour Party is failing to represent the British working class, which favors traditional values and stricter border controls, leading to a rise in alternative parties. 11The Crown as a Symbol of British Identity. Guest: Gregory Copley. Amidst political instability, King Charles III is viewed as a dynamic symbol of national dignity and continuity. The segment discusses the King's role in stabilizing the United Kingdom following Prime Minister Starmer's resignation and managing sensitive royal family matters to preserve the image of the monarchy. 12Recovering the Original Understanding of Unalienable Rights. Guest: Peter Berkowitz. Berkowitz reflects on the 2019 Commission on Unalienable Rights, which sought to ground human rights in the American founding tradition. The commission aimed to counter the "proliferating industry" of rights that often serves partisan progressive ends, emphasizing the Universal Declaration of Human Rights' original austere framework. 13Unalienable Rights and the Challenge of Foreign Policy. Guest: Peter Berkowitz. This segment discusses applying founding principles to modern diplomacy, specifically condemning the Chinese Communist Party's crimes against the Uyghurs. Berkowitz argues that despite economic entanglements, the United States must maintain its dedication to universal principles and use its diplomatic toolbox to address massive human rights violations. 14The Strategic Failure of the Iran Memo of Understanding. Guest: Thaddeus McCotter. McCotter analyzes the Memo of Understanding, highlighting unresolved issues like the Strait of Hormuz and the $80 billion war funding request. He argues the administration is trying to make kinetic action palatable to voters while failing to secure meaningful concessions on Iran's nuclear program or its sponsorship of terrorism. 15The Republican Fissures and Potential Third-Party Movements. Guest: Thaddeus McCotter. The discussion centers on Tucker Carlson's potential departure from the Republican Party over foreign policy disagreements. McCotter suggests this reflects deeper fault lines within the MAGA base, where isolationist tendencies and dissatisfaction with the administration's relationship with allies like Israel could lead to future political discord. 16

STREAMING THE MAKING OF THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW, FEATURING THADDEUS MCCOTTER, 6-23-26.1643This transcript features a discussion between John Batchelor and Thaddeus McCotter regarding the geopolitical instability following a proposed peace deal with Iran. The speakers highlight the confusion surrounding the Strait of Hormuz, where conflicting claims of openness and closure have disrupted global shipping and energy markets. A significant portion of the dialogue focuses on the strained relationship between Washington and Israel, noting that the latter's exclusion from negotiations complicates regional security and the status of Hezbollah in Lebanon. McCotter argues that the administration's actions are primarily a messaging exercise aimed at a skeptical American public rather than a strategic resolution of Iranian state-sponsored terrorism. Additionally, the conversation addresses domestic political shifts, including Tucker Carlson's public break from the Republican Party and the potential for new isolationist movements to influence future elections. The overview concludes that the current memo of understanding remains an unsolved puzzle with few enforceable guarantees regarding nuclear inspections or regional peace.Two fixes folded in: Thaddeus McCotter (per the log) and the run-together "McCotter argues."

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. US bureau chief Jacob Magid joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. Following the first of three days of talks between Jerusalem and Beirut, Magid discusses the sharp critique first issued by Israel's US Ambassador Yechiel Leiter, regarding the connection being made between the Lebanon talks and the US-Iran deal, and the notion that Iran is being allowed to demand a ceasefire in a separate country. There is a battle of narratives in US President Donald Trump's administration over the US-Iran deal, notes Magid, extending into the Israel-Lebanon talks. US Vice President JD Vance is leading the Israel-Lebanon talks and supports some degree of Iranian influence over Hezbollah in Lebanon, reports Magid, viewing it as the only way forward for the embattled country. It appears that Secretary of State Marc Rubio, currently on a regional tour in the United Arab Emirates, isn't as supportive of the terms of the US-Iran Memorandum of Understanding, says Magid, or of Iranian influence in Lebanon, and is keeping some distance, perhaps to protect his place as a possible Republican Party candidate for the 2028 presidential election. Finally, Magid discusses Gaza's Board of Peace, as various members head to Cyprus for a retreat to continue figuring out how to move forward, while insisting that it will take time to make headway on Hamas disarmament and Gaza reconstruction.

And the guys mull over why the mainstream media is so obsessed with the problems going on with the Lincoln Memorial's Reflecting Pool. Why are they spending so much time on this topic? Aren't there more important issues happening right now with the United States?

What happens when two of the Republican Party's top former strategists start spilling the tea? Rick Wilson and Stuart Stevens pull back the curtain on the GOP like never before, exposing decades of hypocrisy, the party's obsession with LGBTQ+ issues, and the shocking stories they witnessed from the inside. From the so-called "Pink Mafia" to MAGA's culture wars, nothing is off limits. It's funny, jaw-dropping, and guaranteed to have Republicans clutching their pearls. And after years of hearing Donald Trump gush about men's physiques, Arnold Palmer's anatomy, and a seemingly endless parade of very gay-adjacent comments, one question inevitably comes up: Could Trump be gay?

Tucker Carlson says he's done supporting the Republican Party. Todd understands the frustration—but argues that walking away from the GOP isn't the answer. In this episode, Todd explains why conservatives can criticize Republican leaders, reject weak Republicans, and still recognize that the Republican Party remains the only viable political vehicle for advancing conservative principles. Todd also explores the differences between flaws in individual Republicans and the ideological problems within today's Democrat Party. Plus, a look at Israel, foreign policy, Genesis 15, and the biblical covenant that continues to shape debates among conservatives.

President Trump signed an executive order to lead the quantum race, but should the government be getting involved? Glenn says that while he understands President Trump's mission, he warns of what Democrats could do with quantum power should they get back in charge. Glenn reacts to Tucker Carlson's announcement yesterday that he was leaving the Republican Party. Glenn shares five stories that show the dangers of judging people based on race or group. Glenn tells a story from 1776 about American troops standing up to the Royal Navy and emerging victorious, just days before the Declaration of Independence was signed. Millions of barrels of oil passed through the Strait of Hormuz yesterday. Will we finally see some relief at the gas pump? Tim Barton, president of WallBuilders, joins to discuss his book "Lives, Fortunes & Sacred Honor: The Signers of the Declaration," which tells the story of the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence. As President Trump is hard at work cleaning the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, Democrats are somehow on the algae's side. Glenn reacts to Joy Reid saying she doesn't know any black people who are excited to celebrate the 4th of July.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Tucker Carlson just dropped a massive bombshell — he's DONE supporting the Republican Party. You HAVE to see this. The former Fox News kingpin and longtime Trump ally says he will no longer vote Republican, calling the party disloyal to America and “immoral” on key issues. After 35 years as a consistent defender of the GOP, Tucker is walking away — and he believes millions of other Americans are right behind him. This isn't some small disagreement. It's a full-blown break that exposes deep fractures inside the conservative movement, especially over foreign policy and America First priorities. Is Tucker speaking the hard trut ...or is he going too far? But that's not all — Pat also covers: Bill Maher continues to WARN Democrats to return to normalcy. Kamala Harris serves up another hilarious word salad. Al Gore's climate change movie turns 20 years old ... and he was completely wrong. Candace Owens makes MAJOR announcements on her show. "The View" is still obsessed and amazed by JD Vance's appearance. Comment below RIGHT NOW: Do you agree with Tucker Carlson ditching the GOP? YES or NO? Is he right that the party is no longer loyal to America? And whose side are you on in this conservative civil war?

Today's Headlines: Mitch McConnell has been hospitalized for over a week with his office offering nothing beyond "he's still working closely with staff." Meanwhile, JD Vance called the Iran talks a "classic Trump deal" while the administration temporarily lifted oil sanctions letting Iran sell oil in US dollars for the first time since 2018 — when Trump blew up the original deal — with Iran saying they made "no new commitments," the Strait of Hormuz status depends entirely on who you ask, and Vance gets visibly snubbed by Iran's foreign minister during a photo op. Trump responded to New York Times war coverage by threatening to add their reporting to his $15 billion defamation lawsuit and calling them treasonous, which is bold from someone whose last Times lawsuit was thrown out within days. The administration is threatening to withhold a billion dollars in homeland security funding from states unless they overhaul their election laws — paper ballots, federal audits, administration-preferred voter databases, all at state expense — which is unconstitutional and headed straight for court, while a George W. Bush-appointed judge blocked DOJ subpoenas targeting Tim Walz and other Minnesota officials, finding "overwhelming" evidence they were issued purely to harass political opponents. Jeanine Pirro is threatening to prosecute anyone caught "vandalizing" the reflecting pool, at least five people have been federally cited for being near it, and Trump claimed someone made a 350-foot gash in a pool he simultaneously described as uncuttable. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer resigned — the country's seventh prime minister in ten years, right on Brexit's tenth anniversary — with Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham as frontrunner to replace him, while researchers found Elon Musk played an "instrumental" role in inciting Belfast's anti-immigrant riots by generating over half of 115 million views driving the unrest, prompting England and Wales's attorney general to ban his office from using X.

This was not a normal bad week. This was the week a bunch of people who spent years pretending the emperor had clothes all looked up at the same time and went, oh no.We open where the country opened: a rotting reflecting pool. A no-bid, $14.5 million renovation that bloomed bright green algae and peeled its custom "American Flag Blue" paint into the water, fixed with hydrogen peroxide that made it worse, then sold to the public as sabotage. Box cutters. A 350-foot slit that grew sixty feet mid-sentence. Five arrests over a pond.From there it only gets worse for him. Three federal courts ruled against this administration in a single Monday, on voter data, food assistance, and the retaliatory subpoenas aimed at Tim Walz, where a Bush-appointed judge used the word "risible." JD Vance flew to Switzerland to sell an Iran deal and got fact-checked and snubbed by Iran in real time. An Israeli cabinet minister told a country of six million to burn, and a platform called it a public service. Tucker Carlson quit the Republican Party. The Senate openly turned on him. Ken Paxton discovered he loves IVF the same week his own party voted to ban it. And Tulsi Gabbard cleaned out her desk by lobbing one more pre-pardoned Fauci grenade on the way out.Every story this week is the same story. Botch something, refuse to own it, invent an enemy, point the state at whoever's standing closest. We connect the dots, name the systems, and separate what's confirmed from what's spin.I'm Robin.

Josh opens the show by breaking down the Democrats' continued march to the Left following the latest election results. He explains why many so-called "moderate" Democrats aren't truly moderates at all—they're simply less radical than the other candidates in their primaries. Josh then turns to the state of the Republican Party, examining the ongoing ideological battles on the right and what they mean for the future of the GOP. Next, Josh dives into new polling that shows the MAGA base largely supports President Trump's initial hardline approach toward Iran, despite the narrative being pushed by a handful of loud critics on the right. He also provides an update on the ongoing discussions surrounding a potential Iran deal, explains why the emerging details should raise serious questions, and lays out what must happen before the United States should even consider further negotiations with Tehran. Finally, Josh revisits the controversy surrounding Pride Night celebrations at Major League Baseball games across the country and discusses the latest developments in the growing debate over politics, sports, and cultural activism.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Join Jim and Greg for the Monday 3 Martini Lunch as they address Vice President JD Vance's optimism about a permanent Iran deal and Jim's frustrations with the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), the resignation of British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, Tucker Carlson leaving the Republican Party, and a media narrative lamenting the impact of lower crime rates on local businesses.First, Jim and Greg discuss Vice President JD Vance's excitement over the ongoing peace talks with Iran in Switzerland. Jim explains why he's not as bullish as Vance is and why he's staunchly opposed to the recently signed Memorandum of Understanding. Jim also worries we have surrendered our three main sources of leverage over Iran.Next, they examine the political turmoil in the UK following Keir Starmer's resignation as prime minister. He became the sixth prime minister to step down in the last 10 years. Jim argues that the government's refusal to address real issues like immigration and crime will only lead to more public unrest. Then, Jim and Greg react to Tucker Carlson's exit from the Republican Party. Despite speaking at the 2024 Republican National Convention, Carlson now says he regrets his support for Trump and he denounces the GOP for its "betrayal of the American people.” Jim comments on the erratic state of politics today and both wonder what Tucker's next move might be. Finally, they laugh at the media's attempt to frame falling crime rates as a negative development. Oakland, California has seen a significant reduction in car break-ins, but some reporting has focused on the impact that fewer repairs could have on auto glass businesses. Jim and Greg discuss how the coverage unintentionally falls for one of economics' most basic fallacies. Please visit our great sponsors:IncogniTake control of your digital footprint today.  Use code 3ML at the link below and get 60% off an annual plan: https://incogni.com/3MLQuoMoney is on the line.
