Podcast appearances and mentions of Mitch McConnell

A former soldier just set off an incendiary device and fired an airsoft rifle right outside 26 Federal Plaza — the building that houses ICE and immigration courts. This wasn't random. Andrew Arrabaca, a 43-year-old Army veteran and National Guardsman, showed up armed with axes, a machete, knives, fireworks, and a cart reading “ICE off our streets.” He poured flammable liquid, lit the blaze, fired pellets at the building, and told investigators he didn't care if he killed people. The FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force is investigating it as a potential terror attack. Four people were hurt. Security tackled him. This is where anti-ICE extremism leads when it moves beyond protests. Americans who've watched open borders, sanctuary cities, and nonstop attacks on ICE have seen this radicalization coming — and now it's here.

Jennifer Welch returns to the Daily Beast Podcast after setting off a political firestorm, revealing how one comment about homeschooling landed her in the crosshairs of the Department of Education and conservative media before she and Joanna Coles turn their attention to the week's biggest political battles. From Pete Hegseth's obsession with testosterone and Jennifer's blistering critique of the MAGA movement to Mitch McConnell's health, Andy Beshear's political future, Todd Blanche, the Epstein files, and the growing fractures inside both parties Jennifer delivers some of her most provocative takes yet as she explains why Democrats need to stop playing defense, why Republican infighting is only getting worse, and why the stories dominating Washington are far from over.

Lindsey Graham's death last week at 71 was as remarkable for the senator's relative "youth" as its possible political and electoral consequences, so much so that it actually prompted conspiracy theories about the precise nature of his passing. Meanwhile, 84-year old Mitch McConnell's status as among the living remains shrouded in mystery, and former president 83-year old former president Joe Biden announced that his memoir would be published in November via his cadaver-esque presence in a promotional video. In short, everywhere we look the signs of our decline into a sclerotic gerontocracy are present, and perhaps no one has approached this problem as comprehensively as Samuel Moyn in his new book, Gerontocracy in America: How the Old Are Hoarding Power and Wealth—and What to Do About It. In this episode we talk with Sam about the historical precedents for our gerontocracy; the nature, extent, and causes of it; why his book is not an attack on the elderly; and possibilities for creatively rewriting our society's intergenerational contract; and more.

Listen to the full episode Matthew considers two registers of painful eulogy: spectacles thrown for elite terrible people, and the music offered for ordinary terrible people, when we can manage it.  Lindsey Graham's death triggered a wave of bullshit from Trump, Harris, Booker, Netanyahu, and Canadian PM Mark Carney — while online ghouls predicted the same fate for Mitch McConnell and Trump.  Where does the elite eulogy reflex come from? Ancient taboo, Thucydides on praise as a function of a rival's removal, and terror management theory on why elites protect their own at the moment of death.  Then we have a music thanatologist's story about playing harp for a dying man nobody liked, and what it teaches about the difference between forgiveness that strengthens ordinary people and deference toward the powerful.

Sponsored by SmileSet. Go to smileset dot com slash rushhour for 35% off your order! The headlines keep getting stranger, and we've got three stories you won't want to miss on this afternoon edition of Rush Hour. First, the global oil crisis just took another major turn, with new developments threatening higher gas prices and more economic uncertainty. We'll break down what's happening, why the situation escalated so quickly, and what it could mean for everyday Americans. Then, a fast-growing Cyclospora outbreak is leaving people across the country battling days—or even weeks—of miserable gastrointestinal symptoms. We'll explain what this parasite is, how people are getting infected, and what health officials are warning everyone to watch for. And finally, the mystery surrounding Mitch McConnell continues. With the longtime senator still absent from the Senate, questions are only growing louder. We'll cover the latest developments, the speculation surrounding his whereabouts, and what his continued disappearance could mean for Washington. Join us live as we separate fact from rumor, add some perspective (and a little humor), and cover the stories everyone will be talking about.

When we recently learned that Senator Lindsey Graham had died and that Senator Mitch McConnell was having health problems, conspiracy theories flourished online: Maybe Senator Graham had been targeted by the Kremlin; maybe Senator McConnell had died, and his death was being hidden. Why do conspiracy theories spread so quickly in modern culture?

Somewhere between a Yankee Stadium spiritual awakening and a nationwide lettuce crisis, we recorded this episode. And listen, the writers of America The Soap Opera did NOT take the week off.Joyhdae and Ryan are still floating from JAŸ-Z's three night residency at Yankee Stadium (yes, both of us went, no, we are not okay), Ryan is child-free and barely knows what week it is, and somehow we still delivered. There's death. There's mystery. There's a parasite. There's a scam. There's HOV. That's not a teaser, that's the actual rundown.Also Natalie sent a voice note. On the work phone. Ryan has thoughts.⸻Segment BreakdownAITA: Wine at the Kids' TableA solo traveler in Tenerife, a family of five with opinions, and a glass of wine that mysteriously disappears. What she orders next is the reason we can never say we're the bigger person. We give our honest takes and reveal exactly how petty each of us would have been. (Spoiler: very.)Lindsey Graham Is Gone... and Where Is Mitch?Senator Lindsey Graham died suddenly at 71, and the internet showed exactly zero grace. Meanwhile the Mitch McConnell conspiracy theories are conspiracy-ing, because y'all really thought one AI-looking photo was gonna hold us over? Somebody go do a welfare check.The Lettuce Situation (Cyclospora Outbreak 2026)The worst cyclospora outbreak on record, 7,000 cases and counting, and nobody can tell us where it's coming from because somebody pulled the research.

We get into church folk, shame culture, and why the pastor who stays in a scandal gets more grace than a comedian being honest.HOV Did That: JAŸ-Z's Yankee Stadium ResidencyThree nights. Three completely different shows. Reasonable Doubt, The Blueprint, and an extra innings finale that started after midnight and ended with fireworks at 2:45 AM on a work night.

We were both in the building and we are STILL not over it.Dad vs Auntie JokesShout out to Hudson. That's all we're legally allowed to say.

First, the latest twist in the ongoing questions surrounding Mitch McConnell, as Kentucky's governor says he believes reports claiming the longtime senator has died—raising even more questions about what's really happening. Then we turn to the Middle East, where a U.S. military base in Jordan has reportedly come under attack in a deadly bombing blamed on Iran. Several American service members are reported dead, and we examine what happened, the potential geopolitical fallout, and what it could mean for the United States going forward. Join Dave Neal for the latest breaking news, analysis, and context on the stories everyone will be talking about.

It's 916 days until the legally defined end of the 47th Presidency, but the merit of upcoming elections becomes more suspect as time goes on.

Trump just dropped a bombshell you need to see before the media buries it. China stole voter registration data from 220 million Americans — and the deep state knew. This isn't some abstract foreign policy story. China quietly vacuumed up names, addresses, phone numbers, and party preferences from more than two-thirds of the country. Trump called it the largest compromise of election data in history, and the intelligence community actively suppressed the details so the American people — and the president — wouldn't find out. That is a direct threat to every election going forward and a clear signal that China is not a competitor. China is the enemy. Regular Americans who still believe we can just trade our way out of this problem need to understand what "nefarious activities" with that kind of data actually look like. Election security, national sovereignty, and basic trust in the system are all on the line.

Speaking with guest host Russell Dobular of the Due Dissidence show, Professor Seyed Muhammad Mirandi critiques JD Vance's explanation of the US-Iran conflict, arguing that Vance's "pragmatists vs. hardliners" framing is a fiction used to justify ongoing US violations of the memorandum of understanding. Mirandi contends that Iran never believed the US would fully implement the deal, as Trump only wanted to reopen the Strait of Hormuz for oil exports while refusing to lift sanctions, return Iranian assets, or restrain Israel.  Iran retaliated against US attempts to establish a separate shipping corridor—a clear violation of the agreement—leading to renewed skirmishes, but Tehran prepared by exporting massive oil reserves during the brief ceasefire. Mirandi concludes that the US is now in a worse strategic position because Iran stockpiled essential goods and remains militarily ready for a prolonged conflict. Plus segments on Ro Khanna's contentious interview with journalist Jeremy Scahill over the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the Flock CEO calling privacy advocates "terrorists," and the increasing demands for hard evidence that Mitch McConnell is still alive.

Senator Mitch McConnell was absent from Capitol Hill for weeks. Rumors and conspiracies swirled until he recently reappeared and said he was in medical care recovering from a fall.He's not the only politician who's hid their health from the public eye – Joe Biden, for instance, tried to keep concerns about his health quiet before the 2024 election – until it was too hard to ignore.We talk about what aging and ailing lawmakers owe to the public especially if it impairs their ability to serve.Plus, immigration enforcement is surging. ICE doubled the number of arrests compared to earlier this year, and has been doing it without the massive protests that rocked the country. But now, with two headline-grabbing shootings of motorists by ICE agents, what is the future of that strategy?We also talk about how congress came together on a massive affordable housing bill.Producer: Leo DuranHost: Mike Madrid Guests:  Liz Bruenig, staff writer at The Atlantic - @EBruenig Sarah Isgur, senior editor at The Dispatch - @whignewtons

They weigh in on global conflicts, a bizarre public health scare involving a widespread outbreak of explosive diarrhea, and the fallout from the latest Jay-Z concert. The opening conversation strikes a sharp legal chord as the hosts dissect the shifting lines between protected opinion and actionable slander across modern media and podcast platforms before addressing the latest updates in the Big Tigger drama. From there, Royce commands the room to unpack a controversial cultural shift—asking if outrage over race-swapped Hollywood casting and the hyper-fixation on figures like Caitlin Clark proves that racism has officially become the new "sex sells" for corporate algorithms. Meanwhile, Leise takes the mic to steer a vital discussion around the viral "Voice Note Guy" controversy, forcing a real, unfiltered dialogue about the true boundaries between consent and psychological coercion. Finally, the duo explores why a woman's intuition is so widely framed as a mystical gift before debating the ultimate relationship stress test: whether taking a solo travel trip is a healthy boundary for maintaining independence or an absolute dealbreaker in a serious relationship.Here is the full breakdown of topics the crew hits this week:Opening welcome: Gathering the community and locking in the weekly energy.The DC Shakeup: Reacting to the sudden death of Lindsey Graham and the wild internet speculation surrounding Mitch McConnell's prolonged hospital absence.Global and Local Chaos: Unpacking ongoing global warfare alongside a very real, stomach-churning public health alert.Jay-Z & Big Tigger: Catching up on major music events and the continuous legal updates in the radio world.Opinion vs. Slander: Where does podcast commentary end and character defamation legally begin?Racism is the New Sex Sells: How media spectrums, sports rivalries like Caitlin Clark vs. Alyssa Thomas, and boycotts are heavily monetizing racial division.Hollywood Race Swapping: A critical look at the casting decisions behind the upcoming HBO Harry Potter series, The Little Mermaid, and Helen of Troy.The Voice Note Guy Controversy: Breaking down the viral modern dating drama to analyze the psychological differences between eager consent and subtle coercion.A Woman's Intuition: Questioning why society treats female instinct as an extraordinary gift rather than standard human logic.The Relationship Solo Trip: Evaluating when solo travel crosses the line from personal autonomy into an active relationship problem.Outro & Wrap: Final reflections, a quick recap of the dense topics, and Leise's closing remarks.

The Rush Hour is back with a packed morning show as we break down Vice President J.D. Vance's headline-making appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience, where he attempted to defend the Trump administration's handling of the Epstein files while also addressing the administration's failed war messaging. We'll separate fact from political spin, examine why critics say the interview amounted to damage control, and unpack the claims that simply don't hold up under scrutiny. Vance acknowledged the administration "screwed up" its communications on the Epstein files, but was adamant it wasn't part of a cover-up—a defense that has left many unconvinced. We dive into the contradictions, the public backlash, and what it all means going forward. Plus, the mystery surrounding Mitch McConnell continues. After weeks of questions about the senator's health, new developments emerged as his wife, Elaine Chao, was spotted leaving the rehabilitation hospital where McConnell has reportedly been recovering. We'll go over the latest sightings, what has actually been confirmed about his condition, and why the lack of transparency has fueled so much speculation. All that and more on this morning's episode of The Rush Hour.

Spencer and Kevin are back with a "political roundtable" that spirals almost immediately, featuring special guests Brentz Platner(?), a beeping Mitch McConnell(??), and the late Lindsey Graham(???), channeled via Baba Yaga because Spencer can't do the voice. From there we cover McConnell's mysterious health saga, Maine's messiest Senate race gossip, and why AI-generated food photos on delivery apps look like they're covered in acne. Of course, no episode is complete without a soda taste test: this time it's the return of Mountain Dew Supernova, plus a deep dive into the forgotten history of Mountain Dew's "Dew-mocracy" flavor elections (RIP Revolution and Typhoon, we hardly knew ye). We also get sidetracked into biohacker Bryan Johnson's autoimmune disease, gold-injecting influencers who think ancient alchemists cracked immortality, a surprisingly heady tangent on Greek "genius" vs. Roman "daemon" concepts and narcissism, and the great Wild Cherry Pepsi tweet discourse of the week (is "permission" now a slur, or did everyone just have assault on the brain because of the news cycle?). We close things out with a weird dive into the data center water usage panic, with Kevin bringing actual industry insight on cooling systems, UV filtration, and why the viral "cyclospora outbreak caused by data centers" theory doesn't quite hold water (pun intended). Politics, parasites, Pepsi discourse, and a vintage computer terminal cameo is just another That Happens for us. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Michael Wolff and Joanna Coles dig into the political fallout from the sudden death of Lindsey Graham, revealing what Trump was really thinking behind his public tributes, how Truth Social posts are crafted inside his inner circle, and why Graham's complicated relationship with the president was driven as much by fear and access as loyalty. They also dissect the growing speculation surrounding Mitch McConnell's health, Trump's increasingly inescapable Middle East conflict despite his promise to avoid forever wars, and why Michael believes the president is trapped by his own inability to change course. Finally, they turn to an unexpected force reshaping the Democratic Party, making the case that Bernie Sanders may have had a far greater impact on American politics than even his critics are willing to admit.

Trump just put Iran on notice again. The U.S. military has launched a new wave of strikes today, and Trump is warning that power plants and bridges could be knocked out next week unless the regime makes a deal. Iran has spent years testing American resolve by shutting down the Strait of Hormuz and backing attacks on our allies and shipping lanes. Weakness and endless talks only encouraged more aggression. Now we're seeing real pressure in action — nightly airstrikes, a naval blockade, and a clear ultimatum on critical infrastructure. Trump's strategy is straightforward: degrade Iran's military capabilities first, then hold the country's power grid and bridges at risk to force negotiations from strength. This isn't about regime change or sending in ground troops. It's about protecting the free flow of commerce and showing adversaries that America means business when our core interests are threatened. Pat also covers: Senator Mitch McConnell joins Pat live in the studio. Sara Gonzales grills Senator Thom Tillis for opposing the SAVE Act.

Sen. Lindsey Graham unexpectedly dies and President Trump notifies Congress that the military has resumed strikes against Iran. Jon, Tommy, and Lovett discuss Trump's announcement that the United States will become "THE GUARDIAN OF THE HORMUZ STRAIT" and begin charging a 20% toll. Then, they discuss the legacy of Lindsey Graham, Mitch McConnell's unexpected and unconvincing proof-of-life photo after his own brush with death, and how both senators' absences will affect Trump's legislative agenda—before touching on the administration subpoenaing four journalists at The New York Times and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s role in an outbreak of explosive diarrhea across the country.
