RFK Jr., the brain-wormed anti-vaxxer inexplicably running America's Department of Health and Human Services, is proof that irony is alive and well. Charged with protecting public health, he's busy undoing lifesaving mRNA vaccine programs and replacing science with YouTube-level quackery. It's like hiring a flat-earther to run NASA—except this time the stakes are your health, your kids, and the future of medicine.

CannCon and Zak “RedPill78” Paine dive into a packed Monday news cycle, kicking off with reactions to the world premiere of Brad Zerbo's documentary CODEX 9/11 and its explosive revelations. From John Bolton's FBI raid and its deep state implications, to Rick Wilson's meltdown and the Lincoln Project's scandals, the hosts break down the hypocrisy of political elites.

The discussion heats up with Florida's immigration battles, Trump's nationwide National Guard mobilizations, and fresh Epstein-related disclosures including Maxwell transcripts, DOJ document handovers, and Virginia Giuffre's upcoming memoir. With fiery commentary, sharp analysis, and plenty of humor, this episode pulls no punches on corruption, cover-ups, and the fight for accountability. 

The Smithsonian is under siege. Trump's latest order demands that our nation's museums sanitize slavery, sugarcoat oppression, and serve up propaganda in place of truth.

August 12, 2025; 6pm: MSNBC's Jason Johnson reports on a stunning new report from The Washington Post about Pentagon plans to create a "domestic civil disturbance quick reaction force" in cities facing protests and other unrest. Plus, critics are warning President Trump is crossing a red line as he taps a MAGA loyalist for the top job at the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Justin Wolfers, Rick Wilson, Joyce Vance and others join "The Beat" to break it all down. 

This week on The Enemies List, Rick Wilson delivers a double-barreled blast at two dangerous actors inside Trump's orbit. First up: Steve Witkoff, Trump's real “acting” Secretary of State, who bumbled his way into a private summit with Vladimir Putin and handed the Russian dictator a propaganda victory. From legitimizing a war criminal to floating a “peace deal” that rewards Russia's invasion by carving up Ukraine, Witkoff's incompetence is a masterclass in diplomatic disaster. Rick breaks down how Trump's obsession with a Nobel Peace Prize, combined with his unshakable loyalty to Putin, is putting NATO, Eastern Europe, and America's security at risk.

This week on The Enemies List, Rick Wilson zeroes in on Texas Governor Greg Abbott's latest authoritarian stunt: a blatantly corrupt redistricting power grab that aims to rig the 2026 election before a single vote is cast. As Texas Democrats flee the state to block quorum, Abbott threatens arrests and removals—desperate moves from a party that knows it can't win fairly. Rick pulls no punches, calling out the apartheid-style gerrymandering, the legal thuggery, and the spineless MAGA loyalty behind this brazen scheme. This isn't policy—it's political warfare. And Abbott is trying to be Trump's loyal soldier in the redistricting coup. Rick lays out what's at stake: if Democrats don't fight fire with fire in states like California, New York, and Illinois, Republicans will steamroll their way to an illegitimate majority in 2026—and possibly end free elections as we know them. From election cheating and voter suppression to redistricting corruption, authoritarian power grabs, and Trump's dangerous orbit, this episode is a blistering call to arms. The fight starts in Texas, but it ends with the survival of American democracy. Subscribe, share, and stay vigilant. . . .

In this week's Enemies List, Rick Wilson takes no prisoners as he tears into Kristi Noem—MAGA's “Ice Barbie” and Trump's loyal mouthpiece. From her shameful 72-hour delay in sending FEMA aid during the Texas floods to her relentless lies defending ICE's brutal immigration raids, Noem embodies the cruelty and corruption at the heart of this administration. Rick exposes how she's transformed from a conservative politician into a shameless propagandist willing to say and do anything to stay in Trump's good graces—even if it means lying about the deaths of hundreds and ignoring real disaster relief.Noem's obsession with deporting immigrants, creating militarized detention centers, and spinning false narratives about “criminals” is part of a broader, deadly agenda that prioritizes political theater over people's lives. Rick also highlights how the media continues to fall for her scripted performances, failing to hold her accountable for the damage she causes. After tearing into Noem, Rick shines a light on Eldridge Colby, a shadowy Pentagon figure with dangerous pro-Russian leanings who's been sabotaging U.S. defense efforts and embarrassing the administration. Colby represents the corrupt, unaccountable “derp state” actors undermining American values from within.Join Rick & take a look at the lies, cruelty, and chaos driving the Trump administration's worst policies—and why it's vital to call out the people behind them.

Today on Mea Culpa, I'm joined by Lincoln Project co-founder Rick Wilson for a scathing conversation on the cruelty, chaos, and corruption driving Trump's America. Rick is a political strategist, writer, speaker, and commentator, best known for his cutting political ads and no-nonsense takes.
