  • Does Trump Even Know Truth? + A Conversation With Harry Litman

    Does Trump Even Know Truth? + A Conversation With Harry Litman
    Apr 21 2025
    Today on Mea Culpa, I’m joined by my friend Harry Litman, former U.S. Attorney, Deputy Assistant Attorney General, law professor, and host of Talking Feds, to break down the constitutional crisis unfolding before our eyes. From the government’s refusal to comply with a Supreme Court order in the Abrego Garcia deportation case to Trump’s threats to dismantle independent institutions, Harry warns we’re entering dangerous, uncharted territory. Together, we expose how Trump’s enablers are weaponizing the law, eroding judicial authority, and targeting critics, turning political vengeance into official policy.

    GOP Silence Is Deafening + A Conversation With Brooklyn Dad Defiant
    Apr 18 2025
    Today on Mea Culpa, I welcome back Brooklyn Dad Defiant, an outspoken political commentator known for his sharp wit, relentless criticism of Trump, and humorous takes on today’s political chaos. BDD is the author of “The Bigliest Loser” and publishes the popular Substack “DEFIANT Dispatches.” Today, we break down the constitutional crisis unfolding as the government defies a Supreme Court order to return a wrongfully deported immigrant, threatening the very foundation of due process. From the fallout of Trump’s reckless tariff war to the silencing of student dissent and the billionaire takeover of our legal institutions, BDD exposes how democracy is being dismantled piece by piece, and why the fight to save it has never been more urgent.

    Knock Knock! Who’s There? DHS + A Conversation With Walter Masterson
    Mar 31 2025
    Today on Mea Culpa, I’m joined by Walter Masterson, comedian, political satirist, and social media provocateur known for infiltrating MAGA rallies and exposing hypocrisy with humor. We break down the fallout from Signal-Gate and how Trump’s allies are spinning the controversy, Chuck Schumer’s latest moves in the Senate and whether Democratic leadership is doing enough to counter Republican extremism, and Trump’s ever-evolving disinformation machine. Walter and I also examine the role of social media in spreading political lies, the dangerous rise of cult-like devotion within the MAGA movement, and how satire can be a powerful weapon against authoritarianism.

    Today on Mea Culpa, I am joined by Anthony Scaramucci, a fellow Trump confidant turned critic.
