We have The Lever's Luke Goldstein on today to talk about the GENIUS Act & its implications, including that oligarchs might be able to issue their own private currency if it's signed into law. Check out Luke's piece here: https://www.levernews.com/get-ready-to-pay-in-zuckbucks/ Then Sam talks to members of United Food and Commercial Workers will be picketing in Worcester, Mass tomorrow as they negotiate a new contract before the current one expires in just over a week.

Republicans are getting an assist of sorts from Senate Democrats to push through Trump's Big Beautiful Bill, though Schumer and co. certainly don't want you to see it that way. Here's David Dayen's reporting on how Senate Dems could do something to stop it should they want to: https://prospect.org/politics/2025-05-28-senate-democrats-stop-big-beautiful-bill/ And finally, theoretical physicist Sean Carroll absolutely mops the floor with Eric Weinstein's physics musings.

Join Jim and Greg for Friday's 3 Martini Lunch as they dissect Chuck Schumer's dramatic flip-flop on immigration, Trump's latest tariff threats against Apple and the European Union, and Andrew Cuomo's surprising critique of the far left in his bid to run New York City.First, they highlight Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer's complete reversal from his previous position on illegal immigration. Recently, Schumer said he wants to see all illegals become citizens. In 2009, he blasted illegal immigration, said we need to stop it, and even insisted on calling them illegal aliens instead of undocumented workers. It's clear proof that the far left wing of the Democrats is driving the party.Next, they brace for impact as President Trump calls for a 50 percent tariff on products from the European Union and a 25 percent tariff on Apple for iPhones sold in the U.S. that are not made here. Jim notes the volatility such proposals inject into the markets, warning that economic uncertainty from abrupt policy changes could have serious consequences.Finally, they find themselves in the strange position of agreeing with Andrew Cuomo about the far left leading deep blue areas into disastrous policies and consequences. His shift comes as the biggest threats to Cuomo in the NYC mayoral primary come from his political left. But can Cuomo really make this argument with any credibility after how he ran the state for more than a decade?Please visit our great sponsors:If I needed to find a doctor quickly, Zocdoc is what I'd use.

Today Sam has his much-anticipated discussion with Ezra Klein about his book Abundance, tune in! Sam and Ezra's convo is wide-ranging, but focuses mostly on housing, regulation and the influence of money in politics. But first, Sam checks on the Republicans' efforts to make cuts to Medicaid. To hear more from Ezra, check out his podcast The Ezra Klein Show: https://www.nytimes.com/column/ezra-klein-podcast Or read his book Abundance: https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Abundance/Ezra-Klein/9781668023488 Or check out his column at the New York Times: https://www.nytimes.com/column/ezra-klein After that, Sam checks in on a Congressional hearing where RJK Jr. won't answer whether he'd recommend his kids be vaccinated for Measles, despite that it's already infected more than 1,000 people in the country. Kennedy goes on to say he doesn't think people should be taking medical advice to him. Remind you, he's the head of Donald Trump's Health and Human Services Department. Chuck Schumer won't address the new reporting from Jake Tapper that Schumer, Hakeem Jeffries and co. were working on a plan to pull Biden from the top of the presidential ticket before the disastrous debate. Then, Steven Crowder tries to explain why Trump's toothless executive order to regulate the cost of pharmaceutical drugs is a shot across the bow of Marxist countries like Germany. It's funny but doesn't really make sense.

The old guard: Nancy Pelosi, Joe Biden, Chuck Schumer, Dick Durbin—that old guard did not deliver the 2024 election.  “ The Republicans are not afraid. They're not afraid of the squad and the Jacobins and this new cohort, the David Hoggs of the world. But you know who's terrified of them?

Join Jim and Greg for this especial edition of the 3 Martini Lunch as they assess the first 100 days of President Trump's new administration. What have been the biggest successes? Where has the administration stumbled? And which moments have stood out as the most crazy in these early months?First, they highlight what they see as Trump's top achievements so far. Jim praises Trump for dramatically reducing illegal immigration at the southern border, calling it a clear promise kept and evidence that the Biden administration could have done the same. The effort to deport criminal illegals is significant too. Greg agrees the border is the biggest win and also commends Trump for restoring cultural sanity in keeping men out of women's sports and private changing areas, and for generally slamming the brakes on the cultural madness the Democrats have been pushing.Next, they explain what they see as the low points of Trump's first few months. Jim takes aim at the tariffs, the inconsistent messaging on them coming from Trump's top advisers, and the market volatility that has ensued. Greg wants to know why Trump has signed only five bills into law when the GOP controls both the House and Senate. Why isn't Congress doing more to move bills along on issues that the American people clearly support.Finally, they break down the craziest moments of the first 100 days. Jim focuses on the unhinged backlash from Democrats after Chuck Schumer caved on the government funding bill. Greg notes Trump's takeover of the Kennedy Center and gets creative in thinking about the type of show that would really please Trump. Please visit our great sponsors:Cut through political bias with Ground News's Vantage Plan—visit https://GroundNews.com/MARTINI to get 40% off for a limited time!Streamline and scale your customer communications with OpenPhone.

If you are a political junkie, then today's show is a must-watch. Jon Allen and Amie Parnes are veteran journalists that spill the tea on everything leading up to the 2024 election. As Joe Biden's cognitive collapse made its way to households around the country and the world, Biden's blunders were far more apparent and evident behind the scenes. Examples such as Biden giving then Speaker McCarthy a tour of the pool house dressing room, or asking where a deceased Congresswoman was during the tour. Biden's closest aides did everything in their power to not only keep their jobs but cover up these outrageous lapses in Biden's cognition. Meanwhile VP Harris and her team conjured up a contingency plan around Biden passing away while in office. It was shaky ground to say the least and it all came crashing down in July, when Biden met Donald Trump on the debate stage. A bitter and betrayed Biden tried to paint himself as a magnanimous leader stepping down as the top Democratic knives came out, including betrayal from Pelosi, Obama and Schumer. The problem was, nobody had faith in Kamala, including Obama, yet here she was. How could Democrats, after everything they preach, pass on the first black woman running for the highest office in the land? As tensions grew amongst Democratic camps, Donald Trump was running a very disciplined, unchaotic campaign led by Wiles and LaCivita. Kamala's scripted and sometimes edited appearances couldn't hold a candle to the long-form podcast and interviews President Trump and Vice President JD Vance were appearing in. As top Obama and Biden aides projections show Donald Trump winning, they told Harris/Walz a different story. It was only on election night as the votes came in did Kamala's bubble burst and her dreams shattered. At the end of the day, President Trump first beat Joe Biden, then beat Kamala Harris to become our 47th president.

What DOGE Found In Building 427 Made Hardened Federal Agents PHYSICALLY SICK Watch this video at- https://youtu.be/eL_RuDisvW8?si=DnVGkHH8BbbggP9K The Next News Network 2.25M subscribers 187,745 views Apr 10, 2025 The Top News Of The Day In an explosive segment from Next News Network's RAW FEED that's sending shockwaves through Washington, host Gary Franchi reveals how President Trump is systematically dismantling the federal government's most outrageous spending abuses – and the swamp creatures are in absolute panic mode. This isn't just about budget cuts; it's about exposing a decades-long scheme that has funneled billions of taxpayer dollars into empty buildings, luxury furniture, and even $230,000 picnic tables while Americans struggle to afford groceries. Marjorie Taylor Greene led a bombshell DOJ subcommittee hearing that exposed the federal government's massive real estate portfolio: over 250,000 buildings, many completely vacant, costing American taxpayers a staggering $10 BILLION annually just to maintain. These are essentially taxpayer-funded ghost towns where unelected bureaucrats sip lattes while hardworking families drown in inflation. The segment features shocking testimony revealing that the Trump administration has already canceled nearly 700 federal leases in record time – the fastest reduction in federal bloat in U.S. history – saving taxpayers approximately $400 million. One of the most egregious examples exposed was a nearly quarter-billion dollar 15-year lease for a luxury office building on Pennsylvania Avenue signed by the Biden administration to house Voice of America. The kicker? The building had zero broadcasting capabilities, which would have required an additional $130 million in taxpayer funds to install. Even more explosive, a witness confirmed under questioning from Rep. Tim Burchett that families of politicians are directly profiting from these federal leases. "Do spouses of members of Congress own real property and lease it to the federal government?" Burchett asked. The witness responded, "I believe the answer to that question is yes." Burchett's conclusion was damning: "People need to start going to prison." The segment reveals how the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) uncovered a shocking $5 TRILLION in "untraceable payments" – government expenditures with no documentation of where or how the money was spent. The head of Social Security resigned the same night DOGE began investigating $72 billion in improper payments from that agency. One of the most outrageous revelations was testimony about the CDC spending $230,000 on a single picnic table while telling Americans not to sit together during the pandemic. As one witness put it, "That rubs the American taxpayer the wrong way." The segment also features Elon Musk responding "Terrible" to footage of Senator Schumer refusing to condemn attacks on Tesla stores while criticizing Musk for cutting government waste. In another viral exchange, Jordan Peterson told Piers Morgan, "It wouldn't surprise me if half the money the government spends is utter waste and worse than that, counterproductive." As America faces a catastrophic $36 trillion debt crisis, Trump's team is bringing common sense back – terminating unused leases, cutting waste, and dramatically shrinking the government footprint. Why? As one witness testified, "We have to right-size our fiscal ship in order to have a country long term." In times of such critical government reform, independent journalism becomes more vital than ever. The mainstream media won't tell you about the billions in waste being slashed or the political families profiting from these sweetheart deals.

Ralph speaks to Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank about the Trump Administration's path of destruction in our federal government. Then, Ralph welcomes legendary public interest lawyer Alan Morrison to discuss the President's authority to impose tariffs and other constitutional questions.Dana Milbank is a nationally syndicated op-ed columnist for the Washington Post. He also provides political commentary for various TV outlets, and he is the author of five books on politics, including the New York Times bestseller The Destructionists and the national bestseller Homo Politicus. His latest book is Fools on the Hill: The Hooligans, Saboteurs, Conspiracy Theories and Dunces who Burned Down the House.I shouldn't be amazed, but Mike Johnson never ceases to amaze me with the rapidity with which he'll just drop to his knees whenever Trump says something.Dana MilbankWe're going to know this shortly, but it does appear that Trump's honeymoon may be over in the House as the conservatives finally seem to be finding their backbones. But I've thought that might happen before and then only to find out that they, in fact, they could not locate their backbones. So I don't want to be premature.Dana MilbankTrump seems to be gambling (and the administration seems to be gambling) that ultimately the Supreme Court is going to a wholesale reinterpretation of the Constitution to grant these never-before-seen executive powers, and it's possible that he's right about that. We're not going to know that. There have been a couple of preliminary rulings that seem friendly to Trump, but none of those is final, so we can't really be sure of it.Dana MilbankMy guess is that Chief Justice Roberts is seeing his legacy heading toward the ditch after his decision of Trump v. United States, where he said that Presidents cannot be criminally prosecuted….My guess is he's going to unpleasantly surprise Trump in the coming months.Ralph NaderAlan Morrison is the Lerner Family Associate Dean for Public Interest & Public Service at George Washington Law School. He currently teaches civil procedure and constitutional law, and previously taught at Harvard, NYU, Stanford, Hawaii, and American University law schools. He has argued 20 cases in the Supreme Court and co-founded the Public Citizen Litigation Group in 1972, which he directed for more than 25 years.It's inevitable that even for a non-economist like myself to understand that [the costs of tariffs] are going to be passed on. Other than Donald Trump, I don't think there's anybody who believes that these taxes are not going to be passed on and that they're going to be borne by the country from which the company did the exporting.Alan MorrisonIt's an uphill battle on both the statutory interpretation and the undue delegation grounds, but our position is rather simple: If the Congress doesn't write a statute so that there's something that the government can't order or do, then it's gone too far. In effect, it has surrendered to the President its power to set policy and do the legislative function. Interestingly, Trump has trumpeted the breadth of what he's doing here. He calls it a revolution. Well, if we have revolutions in this country, my copy of the Constitution says that the Congress has to enact revolution and the President can't do it on its own. So we think we've got a pretty strong case if we can get it to court.Alan MorrisonOne of the things that I've been struck by is that laws alone cannot make this country governable. That we can't write laws to cover every situation and every quirk that any person has, especially the President. We depend on the norms of government—that people will do things not exactly the way everybody did them before, but along the same general lines, and that when we make change, we make them in moderation, because that's what the people expect. Trump has shed all norms.Alan MorrisonNews 4/9/251. Our top story this week is the killing of Omar Mohammed Rabea, an American citizen in Gaza. Known as Amer, the BBC reports the 14-year-old was shot by the Israeli military along with two other 14-year-old boys “on the outskirts of Turmus Ayya” on Sunday evening. Predictably, the IDF called these children “terrorists.” According to NJ.com – Rabea formerly resided in Saddle Brook, New Jersey – Rabea's uncle sits on the board of a local Palestinian American Community Center which told the press “The ambulance was not allowed to pass the checkpoint for 30 minutes, a denial in medical treatment that ultimately resulted in Amer's death…[his] death was entirely preventable and horrifically unjust. He was a child, a 14-year-old boy, with an entire life ahead of him.” The Rachel Corrie Foundation, founded in honor of the American peace activist killed by an Israeli bulldozer while protesting the demolition of a Palestinian home, issued a statement reading “Rabea's death…was perpetuated by Israeli settlers who act with impunity…We believe that if our own government demanded accountability…Rabea would still be alive.” The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) has sent a letter to Attorney General Bondi demanding an investigation, but chances of the Trump administration pursuing justice in this case are slim.2. Meanwhile, President Trump seems to be driving the U.S. economy into a deep recession. Following his much-publicized tariff announcement last week – which included 10% tariffs on uninhabited Heard and McDonald Islands – the S&P dipped by 10.5%, among the largest drops in history, per the New York Times. Far from making Trump back off however, he appears dead set on pushing this as far as it will go. After the People's Republic of China responded to the threat of a 54% tariff with a reciprocal 34% tariff, Trump announced the U.S. will retaliate by upping the tariff to a whopping 104% on Chinese imports, according to the BBC. Reuters reports that JP Morgan forecasts a 60% chance of a recession as a result of these tariffs.3. In more foreign affairs news, on Friday April 4th, South Korea's President Yoon Suk Yeol was officially removed from office by that country's Constitutional Court, “ending months of uncertainty and legal wrangling after he briefly declared martial law in December,” per CNN. The South Korean parliament had already voted to impeach Yoon in December of 2024. The court's decision was unanimous and characterized the leader's actions as a “grave betrayal of the people's trust.” Upon this ruling being handed down, Yoon was forced to immediately vacate the presidential residence. A new election is scheduled for June 3rd. Incredible what a political and judicial class unafraid to stand up to lawlessness can accomplish.4. Speaking of ineffectual opposition parties, one need look no further than Texas' 18th congressional district. This safe Democratic district – including most of central Houston – was held by Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee from 1995 until her death in 2024. According to the Texas Tribune, Lee planned to run yet again in 2024, triumphing over her 43-year-old former aide Amanda Edwards in the primary. However, Lee passed in July of 2024. Edwards again sought the nomination, but the Harris County Democratic Party instead opted for 69-year-old former Houston Mayor Sylvester Turner, per the Texas Tribune. Turner made it to March of 2025 before he too passed away. This seat now sits vacant – depriving the residents of central Houston of congressional representation and the Democrats of a vote in the House. Governor Gregg Abbot has announced that he will not allow a special election before November 2025, the Texas Tribune reports. This is a stunning Democratic own-goal and indicative of the literal death grip the gerontocratic old guard continue to have on the party.5. One ray of hope is that Democratic voters appear to be waking up the ineffectual nature of the party leadership. A new Data for Progress poll of the 2028 New York Senate primary posed a hypothetical matchup between incumbent Senator Chuck Schumer and Democratic Socialist firebrand Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez – and found AOC with a staggering lead of 19 points. This poll showed AOC winning voters under 45 by 50 points, over 45s by eight points, non-college educated by 16 points, college educated by 23 points, Black and white voters by 16 points, and Latinos by 28. Schumer led among self-described “Moderates” by 15 and no other group. It remains to be seen whether the congresswoman from Queens will challenge the Senate Minority Leader, but this poll clearly shows her popularity in the state of New York, and Schumer's abysmal reputation catching up with him.6. Another bright spot from New York, is Zohran Mamdani's mayoral candidacy and specifically his unprecedented field operation. According to the campaign, between April 1st and April 6th, volunteers knocked on 41,591 doors. No mayoral campaign in the history of the city has generated a grassroots movement of this intensity, with politicians traditionally relying on political machines or enormous war chests to carry them to victory. Mamdani has already reached the public financing campaign donation cap, so he can focus all of his time and energy on grassroots outreach. He remains the underdog against former Governor Andrew Cuomo, but his campaign appears stronger every day.7. Turning to the turmoil in the federal regulatory apparatus, POLITICO reports Secretary of Health and Human Services Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has eliminated the Freedom of Information Act offices at the Centers for Disease Control, and other HHS agencies. An anonymous source told the publication that HHS will consolidate its FOIA requests into one HHS-wide office, but “Next steps are still in flux.” In the meantime, there will be no one to fulfill FOIA requests at these agencies. This piece quotes Scott Amey, general counsel at the Project on Government Oversight, who said this “sends a wrong message to the public on the administration's commitment to transparency.” Amey added, “I often say that FOIA officers are like librarians in knowing the interactions of the agency…If you don't have FOIA officers with that specific knowledge, it will slow down the process tremendously.”8. At the Federal Trade Commission, Axios reports the Trump administration has “paused” the FTC's lawsuit against major pharmacy benefit managers, or PBMs, related to “the drug middlemen…inflating the price of insulin and driving up costs to diabetes patients.” The case, filed against CVS Caremark, OptumRx and Express Scripts was halted by the FTC in light of “the fact that there are currently no sitting Commissioners able to participate in this matter.” That is because Trump unlawfully fired the two remaining Democratic commissioners Alvaro Bedoya and Rebecca Slaughter. In a statement, former FTC Chair Lina Khan called this move “A gift to the PBMs.”9. One federal regulatory agency that seems to be at least trying to do their job is the Federal Aviation Administration. According to the American Prospect, the FAA has “[has] proposed [a] rule that would mandate Boeing update a critical communications malfunction in their 787 Dreamliner plane that could lead to disastrous accidents.” As this piece explains, “very high frequency (VHF) radio channels are transferring between the active and standby settings without flight crew input.” The FAA's recommendation in is that Boeing address the issue with an update to the radio software. Yet disturbingly, in one of the comments on this proposed rule Qatar Airways claims that, “[they have] already modified all affected…airplanes with … [the recommended software updates] …However … flight crew are still reporting similar issues.” This comment ends with Qatar Airways stating that they believe, “the unsafe condition still exists.” Boeing planes have been plagued by critical safety malfunctions in recent years, most notably the 2018 and 2019 crashes that killed nearly 350 people.10. Finally, on a somewhat lighter note, you may have heard about Bryan Johnson, the tech entrepreneur dubbed “The Man Who Wants to Live Forever.” Johnson has attracted substantial media attention for his unorthodox anti-aging methods, including regular transfusions of plasma from his own son. But this story is not about Johnson's bizarre immortality obsession, but rather his unsavory corporate practices. A new piece in New York Magazine focuses on the lawsuits filed against Johnson by his all-too-mortal workers, represented by eminent labor lawyer Matt Bruenig. This piece relays how Johnson “required his staffers to sign 20-page NDAs,” and an “opt-in” document which informed his employees they had to be comfortable “being around Johnson while he has very little clothing on” and “discussions for media production including erotica (for example, fan fiction including but not limited to story lines/ideas informed by the Twilight series and-or 50 Shades of Grey.)” Bruenig says, “That stuff is weird,” but his main interest is in the nondisparagement agreements, including the one Johnson's former employee and former fiancée Taylor Southern entered into which has further complicated an already thorny legal dispute between Johnson and herself. Now Bruenig is fighting for Southern and against these blanket nondisparagement agreements in a case that could help define the limits of employer's power to control their workers' speech. Hopefully, Bruenig will prevail in showing that Johnson, whatever his pretensions, truly is a mere mortal.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Murphy is the junior senator from Connecticut and a vehement critic of leaders in his party who've taken a “business as usual” approach in dealing with the Trump administration. He opposed Chuck Schumer's negotiation to pass the Republican budget and keep the government running and Murphy advocated for the democrats to skip the president's joint address to congress en masse. He believes that his party has a winning formula if they stick to a populist anti-big-money agenda and he despairs that some in his party aren't responding appropriately to what he sees as a crisis.

Sam welcome David Dayen from The American Prospect and Organized Money podcast about Trump's tariff-pocalypse. https://prospect.org/  https://www.organizedmoney.fm/ First, Sam runs through updates on Trump's global trade war, Congress' attempt to regain authority over tariffs, South Korea's impeachment of now-former President Yoon, Trump's firing of national security officials, the Trump Administration's public health whoopsie, the Senate's budget reconciliation, the confirmation of Dr. Oz, Schumer's polling, Trump's attack on Brown University, DOGE vs. Social Security, and US aid to Israel, before watching Scott Bessent explain why good markets are bad and bad markets are good. David Dayen then joins to tackle the myriad insanities that led to Trump's imposition of these tumultuous tariffs, walking through the nonsensical (and potentially AI-generated) formula Trump used to calculate them and the utter dearth of any complementary incentive structure or strategic targeting to go the tariffs, all suggesting that they're perhaps more grounded in an attempt to bully and punish the rest of the world economically while working-class Americans pay the cost. After expanding on the Bessent “box” theory of Trump's tariff agenda, Sam and David get in some solid digs at Schumer as they touch on Congress' ongoing attempt to take back tariff power and ponder the future of a GOP turn on Trump's economic sabotage, before unpacking what to expect from to the GOP's ongoing budget reconciliation push. Wrapping up Dayen posits a strong theory on a Conservative push to use rising prices amid tariffs to justify tax cuts, before watching some open criticisms of Trump from Ron Johson and Ted Cruz. And in the Fun Half: Sam tackles the return of Laura Loomer to Trump's inner circle, now in the capacity as some form of National Security advisor, parses through some highlights from his appearance on PBD, including an attempt to address some Social Security misinformation, and watches Judge Jeanine make some blatantly incorrect statements about the future of the US economy.

The Trump administration just took things to a chilling new level — deporting people to foreign prisons without due process. They're using the Alien Enemies Act — a law last invoked to justify the internment of Japanese Americans during WWII — to deport 137 Venezuelans to El Salvador, where they're now being held in a notorious, crowded mega-prison where visitation and recreation are forbidden. Meanwhile, Chuck Schumer's decision to back the GOP's spending bill has sparked fierce backlash from Democrats across the board. Jon, Lovett, and Tommy break down the administration's defiance of the courts and debate both sides of the shutdown fight. Then, Dan talks to House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries about his break with Schumer and how Democrats can unite against the Trump administration.
