Despite Emma's absence, it's hump day Wednesday and there's a lot to talk about. Inflation is slowly starting to rise to its highest number since February. The effects of these tariffs will be rearing their head eventually. Award winning Israeli journalist, Meron Rapaport joins us for a discussion on Gaza and the West bank and Israel's attempt to alienate and expel Arab Knesset members. Hakeem Jeffries is still refusing to endorse Zohran Mandani even though he won Hakeem's district decisively. In the Fun Half we open with a real time twitter feud between Matt and a journalist from The Free Beacon or something. Matt cooks him. Trump turns on his own base over the Epstein files. This story is not going anywhere anytime soon. Meanwhile, despite all of the tragic SCOTUS rulings, the horrible budget bill, the mass firings of federal employees, the dismantling of the Department of Education, according to CNN the Democrats are in a worse position for the midterms than at this same point in 2017 or 2005. All that and more plus phone calls.

3541 - The Trump-Epstein Enigma w/ Heather 'Digby' Parton & Francesca Fiorentini

It’s Monday, and allegedly a fun day. First, Tulsi Gabbard tries to worm her way back into Trump’s good graces with a fresh Obama conspiracy theory, while Trump shares an AI-generated video of Obama being “arrested” by FBI agents. In an especially desperate attempt to shift attention away from Epstein headlines, Trump threatens to block a deal for the Washington Commanders’ new stadium—unless they bring back the team’s old name. Then we’re joined by journalist Matt Duss to discuss his new piece in Foreign Policy, “The Biden Administration Lied About Gaza. It's Time to Hold Them Accountable.” Later, Candace Rondeaux, author of Putin’s Sledgehammer, joins us to break down Russia’s war in Ukraine and the Wagner Group’s role in meddling in U.S. elections. In the Fun Half we watch Mehdi Hasan debate 20 far-right panelists in Jubilee’s Surrounded series. Andrew Cuomo left his home in Westchester Country to visit Long Island to raise money for his New York City mayoral race and someone was kind enough to secretly record his speech. Turns out it was voter turnout that caused his defeat by 12 points. Fox News does some "embedded journalism" by sending a reporter to Central Florida for a puff piece that covers "consensual interactions" like finger printing workers for a national immigrant data base.

3542 - Accountability for Gaza, Putin's End Game w/ Matt Duss and Candace Rondeaux

It’s Thursday, and that means you get an Emmajority Report! On today’s show: The official DHS X account posts a racist painting featuring Nazi-coded text. A resurfaced 2010 deposition shows Jeffrey Epstein pleading the Fifth when asked about socializing with Donald Trump and underage girls. Archival footage of a 17-year-old Stephen Miller reveals his early White Nationalist leanings. Rep. Greg Casar (D-TX) joins us to discuss Trump’s plan to gerrymander Texas to “pick up 5 seats really quick,” and his proposed legislation to ban dystopian “Surveillance Pricing.” Then, Brandon Sutton and Matt Binder join us for the Fun Half: Binder walks us through the lowlights of Hulk Hogan’s life. Ryan Grim of Breaking Points reveals Israel’s involvement in wiretapping the White House during the Bill Clinton-Lewinsky scandal.

3545 - Stephen Miller, Shadow President; Texas Redistricting Fight w/ Rep. Greg Casar

It's Casual Friday on the Majority Report: A pregnant woman in Tennessee is denied medical care under the state’s Medical Ethics Defense Act—because she was unmarried, which conflicted with the clinic’s so-called “Christian values.” We’re joined by  Editor-in-Chief Mehdi Hasan to discuss the mass starvation in Gaza, the ongoing Epstein cover-up, and his recent appearance on Jubilee’s Surrounded. In the Fun Half: Andrew Cuomo appears on CNBC to reflect on losing the primary—and lays out a firm policy agenda focused on fearmongering, from anti-Semitism panic to Red Scare tactics. The chairman of the FCC openly calls for a media “course correction”—a not-so-subtle threat to align with the Trump agenda or risk cancellation. South Park takes a big swing at Trump's little thing as Tim Pool clutches his pearls. All that and more plus IMs. &nbsp; The&nbsp;Congress switchboard number&nbsp;is&nbsp;(202) 224-3121.
