A feud between Elon Musk and U.S. President Trump escalated and exploded over the course of 72 hours last week.It started off with Musk's criticism of Trump's new spending bill, calling it a “disgusting abomination.” Trump later criticized Musk during a press conference in the Oval Office, saying that he would have won the 2024 election without the millions of dollars Musk spent to support him. From there, a barrage of attacks ensued over social media, and threats to cancel government contracts and cooperation. Dasha Burns, Politico's White House Bureau Chief and host of “The Conversation with Dasha Burns”, is here to walk through the twists and turns of this public breakup, and reflect on who wins and who loses when two of the most powerful people in the world fight.Fill out our listener survey here.

The trial has featured several hours of contentious testimony from Stormy Daniels, X-rated revelations about the former President and even a violation of a gag order.

And what is the current mood amongst the Trump faithful? Joining Anton to discuss is Paul Brandus, White House Bureau Chief for West Wing Reports.

It's a race against time in Turkey and in Syria where a massive magnitude 7.8 earthquake struck on Monday. Rescue teams are working around the clock in freezing conditions, trying to find survivors, with the emotion sometimes too much to bear. With more than 6,300 dead and counting, plus over 26,000 injured, it is a daunting task – but nobody is giving up. The world is coming together to help – even Ukraine is sending emergency personnel, and neighboring Greece is jumping into the fray despite sky high political tensions between Athens and Ankara. Sherine Ibrahim is the country director of CARE in Turkey, and she joins the show from Gaziantep, where people are sleeping in cars for fear of further aftershocks.

Today, a conversation about the media and the Big Lie. Former President Donald Trump's repeated false assertions about the results of the 2020 election — that it was rigged by Democrats and that he, not Joe Biden, was the actual winner — have been ingrained in the public psyche for more than two years. Trump began making his outrageous claims even before the election was called for Joe Biden. It wasn't Trump's first lie, of course. The Washington Post kept a running tally of the false or misleading statements made by the former President during his four years in office. The ignominious total: 30,573. Trump made 492 suspect claims in his first 100 days in the White House. On the day before the 2020 election, the Post reports he made 503 false or misleading claims on that one day alone. In her new book, Confidence Man, journalist Maggie Haberman makes the point that the media wasn't prepared to cover a candidate or a President who lied so frequently, or so brazenly. If that's true, are we prepared now? Trump's propensity for malicious fiction predated his time in politics by decades. But his Big Lie about the election is without doubt the most pernicious of the many falsehoods he has uttered throughout his career. It led to a riot at the US Capitol and the deaths of five people. Has it also brought democracy to the brink of collapse? There is ample evidence that it has. The Big Lie has been picked up and embraced by a slew of Trump's fellow Republicans, as many as 370 across the country who are on the ballot next month. Here in Maryland, two candidates for statewide office, Dan Cox, who is running for Governor, and Michael Peroutka, who is running for Attorney General, are election deniers. Five candidates for the House of Representatives, one candidate for the US Senate, and Cox's running mate are also election deniers. Tom's two guests today have done yeomen's work in helping voters discern between that which is false and that which is true, and we're delighted they have joined us today to talk about how the media should approach coverage of people who deny the truth, for whatever reason.

In the 2022 US elections across the country, more than 160 Republican primary candidates for offices up and down the ballot are election deniers who have embraced Donald Trump's malicious fiction about the 2020 Presidential contest. On Monday (Aug 1), the Brennan Center for Justice in New York reported that 12 election denier candidates in swing states with secretary of state races this year have raised $7.3 million dollars for their campaigns. Overall, more than twice as much money has been raised in this cycle than was raised in 2018.These campaigns are premised in the deliberate fallacy that elections in America are rigged, a fallacy perpetrated by Donald Trump over the last several years. Tom's guest for the hour today is a seasoned Washington reporter and author who has covered Mr. Trump for the Associated Press, POLITICO and MSNBC. Jonathan Lemire has written a terrific new book that examines the origins and the legacy of Donald Trump's prevarication. It's called The Big Lie: Election Chaos, Political Opportunism, and the State of American Politics After 2020.  Jonathan Lemire is the host of Way Too Early on MSNBC, and the White House Bureau Chief for POLITICO.  He joins us on our digital line from New York…See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As the weight of Trumpism prepares for another test in Tuesday's midterms, Jonathan Lemire, Politico's White House Bureau Chief and host of MSNBC's "Way Too Early," joins Chuck to detail the rise of former President Trump's false stolen election claims, and why that movement — far from dwindling — is taking root in the GOP for the long term.

John Heilemann talks with Jonathan Lemire, White House Bureau Chief at Politico, host of Way Too Early on MSNBC, and author of the new book, The Big Lie: Election Chaos, Political Opportunism, and the State of American Politics After 2020. Heilemann and Lemire discuss the January 6 select committee's final hearing of the summer; the scandal over the Secret Service's purge of text messages from the day of the Capitol riot; and the growing impatience among top White House officials with Attorney General Merrick Garland's Justice Department over its apparent lethargy around bringing criminal charges against former President Trump related to the insurrection. Lemire also unpacks the history of Trump's Big Lie as an idea; recalls what it was like to see his face on every TV screen in the world for days after asking the question at the 2018 Helsinki summit that led Trump to declare that he sided with Vladimir Putin over his own intelligence officials regarding Russia's interference in 2016; and discusses various 2024 scenarios, from a Biden v Trump rematch to potential presidential runs by Ron DeSantis and Gavin Newsom, the ultra-thirsty governors of Florida and California.

The Washington Post (!) — that bastion of political conservatism and news coverage in Washington DC — featured a MAJOR, totally “straight” story just a couple days ago — written by the paper's White House Bureau Chief herself, Ashley Parker! The story briefly covered not only the turgid ~70-plus-year-modern history of “UFOs” (renamed by the current Pentagon “UAPs — Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon”), but gave the (literal!) last word to “our own” [...]

President Trump’s critics often describe his term of office as filled with pure and uninhibited chaos. The Washington Post White House Correspondent Philip Rucker disagrees. In the reporter’s latest book – the award-winning A Very Stable Genius: Donald J. Trump’s Testing of America – Rucker demonstrates that there are clear patterns and values in the behaviours of both President Trump and his associates. What are these patterns and values and what implications do they have for US politics and foreign policy? How are they faring in a pandemic and economic disaster? And how would a second term of office for the Trump administration differ from the first? To discuss these issues, USSC hosted a webinar event featuring Pulitzer Prize and George Polk Award-winning writer Philip Rucker in conversation with United States Studies Centre CEO Professor Simon Jackman.

He previously has covered Congress, the Obama White House, and the 2012 and 2016 presidential campaigns. Rucker also is a Political Analyst for NBC News and MSNBC. He joined The Post in 2005 as a local news reporter. Leonnig and Rucker authored A Very Stable Genius: Donald J. Trump’s Testing of America which debuted at number one on The New York Times best-seller list. The book tracks the first three years of the Trump presidency relying on intimate, revelatory interviews with first-hand witnesses and including never-before-reported details. 

Zach follows up on his earlier prediction that Vice President Joe Biden would win South Carolina over the weekend and the very good chance that it would be a different race afterwards. He also talks about Super Tuesday ahead and the surprising suspension of the Pete Buttigieg campaign. Then, White House Bureau Chief for the Voice of America, Steve Herman, calls in from DC to talk about his trip to India with POTUS and FLOTUS last week and the expectations, and then he and Zach shift to Coronavirus and the impact on the stock market.

Philip Rucker on Breaking it Down with Frank MacKay - Washington Post White House Bureau Chief by Frank MacKay

Four Department of Justice prosecutors working on the case of Roger Stone, a close friend of President Trump, withdrew from legal proceedings Tuesday after Attorney General William Barr overruled their sentencing recommendations. The president had complained about the long sentence. Barr denied that President Trump asked him to intervene and claimed he wouldn't be "bullied or influenced by anybody." He said Thursday that the president should stop tweeting about DOJ criminal cases. The president took to Twitter Friday to say he has the "legal right." Shortly therafter, the DOJ dropped their probe into former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe. Before you think this is more than theater, keep in mind that Barr also set up a process to vet information that Rudy Giuliani is gathering in Ukraine. And he tasked prosecutors to review the case of former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn. This is the last episode of Pardon Me. We think it's fitting to end the series on endings: the end of functioning institutions, the end of trust in government, the end of fact-based reality, the end of freedom for the press -- the end of democracy, itself. We remain hopeful.

Today’s guest is journalist Phil Rucker – the White House Bureau Chief for the Washington Post whose co-authored book, “A Very Stable Genius – Donald J. Trump’s Testing of America” debuted number one on the New York Times best-sellers list. In the midst of doing the full circuit of interviews on late night talk shows, National Public Radio, and all the major media outlets last week, we got to sit down with Rucker for an in-depth conversation about this hot new book on our show. I first got to know Phil Rucker when he was covering the Statehouse beat in Annapolis. I was a new Delegate in the Maryland General Assembly; he was a cub reporter for The Washington Post. In addition to my role as a legislator, I was also an elected member of the Democratic National Committee. In 2008, my experience as a superdelegate to the national convention and the attention that presidential candidates Barrack Obama and Hillary Clinton were lavishing on people in my position was highlighted in a front-page story Rucker wrote for The Washington Post, entitled, “On the Fence and In the Spotlight.” We held high professional regard for each other and it didn’t surprise me when he was promoted to cover the national political scene. Phil’s talents had him on a trajectory for great things. A Pulitzer Prize winner, Rucker is now the White House Bureau Chief, giving him access to an array of primary sources that generate one of the most unfiltered views of this presidency. This, in part, is what makes “A Very Stable Genius” such a timely, interesting, and historic read for anyone that wants to better understand what is happening day-to-day behind the scenes in the Trump White House. Let us take you there in our fast-paced, fun, humorous, provocative, and wide-ranging interview with one of America’s top journalists.

The veteran correspondent sat down with Daniella and Ed this week to discuss how being one of the most prominent black, female White House reporters has changed under this administration; why she interviewed Steve Bannon; why she would interview David Duke; and why she’s a winner through it all.
