Casual Friday is finally upon us! Sam and Emma take in the spectacle that was State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce finding out in real time during a press briefing that National Security Adviser Tim Waltz had been re-assigned to be the U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. while her boss Marco Rubio was replacing him. After that, Sam and Emma talk to Mehdi Hasan about Trump's first 100 days and all of the damage he and his administration have been able to do in that time. They reflect on how the administrations' assault particularly on immigrants, lead by Stephen Miller, has served as a horrifying spectacle meant in part to distract people from the harm that's also being done to the economy. &nbsp; Check out more of Mehdi's analysis at Zeteo, which is about to turn one year old!:  After that, Emma is joined by funnyman and birthday boy Matt Lieb. Together they take in some of the sad and consequential aspects of John Fetterman's mental health that have been reported on in a new piece by New York Magazine. Check out Matt's upcoming standup show next Wednesday at Cobbs in San Francisco:  After that, Emma, Russ and Matt admire Ilhan Omar's handling of her interaction with Daily Caller "reporter"&nbsp;Myles Morell while effectively conveying the moral position on the Kilmar Abrego Garcia case and its implications. Also the Texas state house is busy debating a GOP-sponsored bill forbidding litter boxes from schools over a completely made up moral panic about furries.

2489 - Mike Walz Out, Miller's Immigration Horror w/ Mehdi Hasan, Matt Lieb

Donald Trump isn't sure that migrants are entitled to due process, or if he needs to uphold the Constitution. He says he'll check with Attorney General Pam Bondi though and get back to us. That's just one of many bonkers moments from the president's sit down interview with NBC's Meet the Press. It's Funday Monday folks!&nbsp;The Roosevelt Institute's director of industrial policy and trade Dr. Todd Tucker joins Emma and Sam to break down the impact of the Trump administration's tariffs, as well as what a progressive tariffs regime might look like. Trump seems to see trade deficits as a zero sum game that he's asking Americans to make a huge sacrifice to win, though it's not clear why. In the Fun Half, we hear from the head of the Port of L.A. who is raising the alarm about slowdown in global trade, which could lead to shortages of goods in the U.S. and a reduction in workers needed at ports and in shipping. At the same time, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy is practically begging people to become air traffic controllers because of a shortage of them at the FAA. This is after Duffy reportedly got into a shouting match with Musk about DOGE's targeting of the FAA. Chuck Schumer tries to take a victory lap over Trump's abysmal approval rating, but, whoops! His approval rating is also in the toilet.

2490 - Trump Tries to Justify the Impact of Tariffs w/ Todd Tucker

Mike Shelby of Gray Zone Research and Early Warning Network discusses the current domestic and global situation, describing it as a time of generational change and concern. Shelby warns of potential low intensity conflict, such as violent social movements, terrorism, and color revolutions, rather than a conventional civil war in the U.S. He comments on the decline of Pax Americana, the new restructuring toward a Fortress America, and the ongoing conflict with China. He offers some excellent advice on weathering the storm.

2491 - Trump's Multi-Pronged Assault on Immigrant's Rights w/ Naureen Shah

It's an Emma-jority Wednesday and we've got 2 great guests for you. First though, Emma and Matt soak in some of the horrifying news coming out of Israel's siege on Gaza, where children are starving. The Trump administration has compounded the problem by continuing to support the Israeli military onslaught as they plan to intensify operations there. After that, Syracuse University professor Austin Kocher joins Emma to discuss the Trump administration's efforts to conscript local law enforcement to crack down on immigrant communities, as well as other extreme and unconstitutional tactics being taken by federal immigration enforcement agencies. Check out Austin's writing and research on his Substack:&nbsp; Then Dr. Kellan Baker, Executive Director of the Institute for Health Research and Policy at Whitman-Walker, gives his reaction to a new Trump administration report that endorses the widely discredited idea of so-called conversion therapy. He also talks about the barriers the Trump administration is fortifying to prevent trans people from getting the health care they need. In the Fun Half, Emma and Matt check in on the PBD podcast's reaction to the genius Trump idea of reopening Alcatraz as a prison. Their reviews are mixed folks! Meanwhile, Ben Shapiro is calling for the Trump administration to fire Peter Navarro and elevate Scott Bessent. All that and more on today's Emmajority Report!

2492 - Trump Builds Deportation Army; HHS Pushes Trans Conversion w/ Austin Kocher, Kellan Baker

Trump is touting his trade deal with the U.K., which he bragged will lead to an increased influx in the number of Rolls Royces to the U.S.&nbsp; He also says that the mounting crisis at America's ports, which could lead to people losing their jobs, is proof that the U.S. economy isn't losing money. It's a real head scratcher. After that, Georgetown professor of Indian politics Irfan Nooruddin is here to help contextualize the ratcheting of tensions between Indian and Pakistan over Kashmir. As Professor Nooruddin points out, both nuclear armed countries have domestic political and economic incentives to forge ahead with this dangerous tit for tat. In the Fun Half, we're joined by the usual Thursday suspects, Matt Binder &amp; Brandon Sutton to check in on Laura Loomer's crusade against top Trump administration officials, this time Pam Bondi (who she refers to as Pam Blondi). Tim Pool is upset that one of his favorite punk band's singers is trans and played at a Bernie rally. After that, Russ, Matt, Brandon and Binder watch some zany clips of Lindy Li talking to Tara Palmeri about her new book (kind of).

2493 - India-Pakistan's Dangerous Standoff Intensifies w/ Irfan Nooruddin

It's a Sam-solo casual Friday and Digby is here to wrap up the week that was. Sam takes in the Fox News discussion about the pope, which acknowledges that Jesus would be on the side of migrants if he was alive today, but also wonders whether he'd be as political as some of the leaders of the Catholic church have been. Then Sam and Digby marvel at JD Vance's ominous addendum to Donald Trump's tariffs agenda, mainly that American parents should be worried that if their children have to go off to fight in a war they should have American-made guns. They also discuss the Trump administration's cruel crack down on immigrants and their communities. Check out Digby's writing at Salon and on her blog:&nbsp; After that, we hear from David Feldman who's upset about ICE, not for the reasons you might imagine. It's...interesting. After that, Sam decides to grant us a Freebie Friday, so get your kicks in while you can. We talk Tim Pool and his new academic definition of war, which basically includes any and everything so he can justify the Trump administration taking extra-constitutional actions to crack down on people it doesn't like. They also take in Biden's appearance on The View, where he tries to make the case that he wasn't experiencing mental decline while in office by trailing off and having Jill Biden speak on his behalf while he hangs his head in silence. It's really quite sad. After that, we hear from a trans member of the military who's devastated that his losing his career and perhaps his pension and other benefits as a result of the Supreme Court's ruling that allows the DoD to purge the military of trans people. A caller from Massachusetts mentioned these resources for people concerned about ICE's activities in the state: Luce Massachusetts:&nbsp; Blog WorcesterSucks:&nbsp; And here's the info about the protest Sam mentioned in support of Palestine in Brooklyn on Saturday:&nbsp; Become a member at&nbsp;JoinTheMajorityReport.com:&nbsp; Follow us on TikTok here!:&nbsp; Check us out on Twitch here!:&nbsp; Find our Rumble stream here!:&nbsp; Check out our alt YouTube channel here!:&nbsp; Gift a Majority Report subscription here:&nbsp; Subscribe to the ESVN YouTube channel here:&nbsp; Subscribe to the AMQuickie newsletter here:&nbsp; Join the Majority Report Discord!&nbsp; Get all your MR merch at our store:&nbsp; Get the free Majority Report App!:&nbsp; Go to&nbsp;&nbsp;and use coupon code majority to get 10% off your purchase!

The Conservative Team: Науката, джендъра и бъдещето. Облаков, Бушняков и Димокенчев в “Легенди”

In addition to Trump's erratic trade policies, Republicans are also working to defund vital programs like Medicare and Social Security in their upcoming legislative push. AOC has an explainer on how the GOP is looking to cut nearly a trillion dollars out of Medicare and give it to billionaires. After that, Sam speaks to Mark Blyth to help unpack Trump's topsy turvy tariff policy and how it relates to inflation. Blyth is the Director of The William R. Rhodes Center for International Economics and Finance and a professor at Brown University. He’s also the co-author of the new book “Inflation: A Guide for Users and Losers” which is out now:&nbsp; In the Fun Half, Sam and Emma take in some of the highlights from the White House press conference on Trump's latest executive order on prescription drug prices, which, suffice to say, is not what it's advertised to be. Trump says a rich friend of his who's taking the "fat shot drug" told him he's paying far less for it in the U.K. than in the U.S. RFK Jr. says this is proof that Trump is sticking it to the oligarchy. At the same time, Bret Weinstein is very concerned that maybe big pharma has gotten to RFK Jr. Become a member at&nbsp;JoinTheMajorityReport.com:&nbsp; Follow us on TikTok here!:&nbsp; Check us out on Twitch here!:&nbsp; Find our Rumble stream here!:&nbsp; Check out our alt YouTube channel here!:&nbsp; Gift a Majority Report subscription here:&nbsp; Subscribe to the ESVN YouTube channel here:&nbsp; Subscribe to the AMQuickie newsletter here:&nbsp; Join the Majority Report Discord!&nbsp; Get all your MR merch at our store:&nbsp; Get the free Majority Report App!:&nbsp; Go to&nbsp;&nbsp;and use coupon code majority to get 10% off your purchase!
