Trump has no mandate. Full stop. Does he want to pretend he does? You bet! But it’s a bad bet for Trump and he is way overplaying a bad hand. His sinking numbers with the American people on everything from the economy to Elon tell the story. Lisa Senecal, executive editor of Resolute Square, joins Maya May to punch up at a very deserving bully, Donald John Trump, the POTUS Who Cried Mandate. They discuss why Trump’s attempt to show strength in Tuesday's Castro-esque rant before the joint session of Congress was really a huge tell of where he knows he’s weak and failing.

Trump and his minions have a strategy to dismantle democracy. The fierce opposition must strategically and effectively fight back. Join us on March 4 when writer and international affairs expert Tom Nichols join Rick Wilson, Stuart Stevens, and Joe Trippi to discuss the (in)stability of America's relationships with NATO members and our other allies in the region.

Our institutions are falling like dominoes and our global influence is literally coming. To. An. End. And yet, there are those pundits on the left calling for the Democrats to hit pause on their attacks against fascism. Hit pause? Nothing says you’re getting the shit kicked out of you like desperately begging for a time out. A time out ain't coming. But that begs the question - how in the hell do we fight back? And how do we keep that fight going for the next four years? It’s only been a month for God’s sake! Maya welcomes Santiago Mayer, the Executive Director of Voters of Tomorrow, to talk about running this marathon to win it. He’s spent the last four years organizing, strategizing, and building an army of Gen Z activists who will fight for their futures until the end. They’re the Zelenskies of American opposition politics, and we need to take notice.

As Trump continues his war on the media, our guest, journalist and media expert Mark Jacob says this might actually be an opportunity for journalists and outlets to regain their independence from the tyranny of ACCESS. Could these attacks actually make journalism stronger? Catch up now as Mark, Rick, and Joe discuss what the media has to do - and what we all have to do when they don't do their job of holding power accountable.

Kristin Brey and Maya May ask "What will it take for us to survive the next four years?" Asking yourself the same question? Catch up now on their conversation about the broligarchy, Wisconsin's hugely consequential upcoming Supreme Court election, and why the SAFE Act proposes to do anything but keep women in America safe.

NEW EPISODE! Special guest, author and Economic Sociologist Brooke Harrington joined the Strategy Session to draw back the curtain on the Broligarchy that has taken over Washington. And it’s unimaginably bad, not just for our economy or the widening wealth gap, but for our democracy. Brooke's new book, Offshore: Stealth Wealth and the New Colonialism, investigates how offshore financial systems enable the ultra-wealthy to evade taxes, bypass regulations, and consolidate power, all while undermining democracy, capitalism, and environmental protections. Sound familiar?

Pete Hegseth. Russell Vought. White Christian Nationalism has found its way to the halls of power, and it’s darker than we imagined. They’re coming after Obergefell. They want to repeal the 19th amendment. They want to take access to power from women, people of color, the LGBTQ community, and place it in the hands of - you guessed it - white Christian men. Don’t believe it? Tim Whitaker has seen it all firsthand. He is the founder of The New Evangelicals, a growing community dedicated to rethinking and reforming evangelical Christianity. He says that while the white Christian nationalists have a hold on our government and designs on a dystopian America, we’ve still got a shot. But it’s going to take all of us.

Rick, Joe, and Stuart are joined by election law attorney Mario Nicolais. Mario was one of the Colorado attorneys who took the battle to keep insurrectionist Donald Trump off the ballot to their Supreme Court. Mario, Joe, Rick, and Stuart talk about the legal battles attempting to hold Trump in check - how successful they are so far and if they can constrain the authoritarian Trump.

We’re all happy the Democrats seem to be waking up, but if we’re being honest, they’re two years behind the curve. Now is the time to fight back with everything we’ve got, but to also prepare ourselves for life under this regime while we fight. Because…it’s here, and it’s not going to be easy to make ground. Dems are going to use the law to try to stop a man who is lawless. We are going to protest against people without any shame or the ability to reflect on their behavior. Do we still need to do those things? Absolutely. Spoke with the amazing Elizabeth Booker Houston - lawyer, comedian, and public health advocate. She’s in the fight for social justice, reproductive rights, and all the stuff we need but are quickly losing.

Trump and his minions have a strategy to dismantle democracy. Strategist and attorney David Pepper joins the Strategy Session to break down what Trump and Musk are doing and why it's essential we fight back NOW! Join the fierce opposition on Strategy Session with Rick Wilson, Stuart Stevens, and Joe Trippi.

We’ve seen the world coming down around us, and the democrats - who are supposed to be our opposition leaders - are basically silent, with a few notable exceptions. It can feel like we’re just screaming into the void, and the void is like, “Mailbox full.” So the people we expect to represent us - to guide us through this hellscape - are gone. But that doesn’t mean we’re alone. There are leaders out there who come with receipts. Black. Women. Black women have always voted overwhelmingly on the right side. To everyone else, MAGA bullshit looks like a smokescreen. Totally inscrutable. But black women can read it like the Rosetta Stone, and they’ve been trying to tell you for DECADES. Maya's guest, Reecie Colbert, knows how to fight. They talk about how to pick a fight & how to win it.

Week 1 of Trump 2.0 is in the books and, ya know, it wasn’t so bad. Maybe we all need to settle down and give the guy a chance. Kidding! He is as bad as we knew he would be and he’s only getting started. Not only are Trump’s actions predictable, they were published prior to the election in the Project 2025 manifesto. We sounded the alarms with help from all of you, so what now? Molly Jong-Fast joined the Strategy Session with Rick Wilson and Stuart Stevens to break it all down.

How do we manage the non-stop real and manufactured political, social, and environmental crises we're living through? Maya May's guest crisis expert Juliette Kayyem says we need to break it all down into categories of "What? So What? and What Now?" She and Maya broke it down on tonights show - catch up now!

You can't look at Trump's first 36 hours and legitimately deny that there is a fascist administration in the White House. That is our reality, so what is the strategy for fighting back against his abhorrent agenda, unacceptable nominees, and to win in '26 and beyond? To break it all down and start charting a go-forward strategy, Sen. Doug Jones joined the Strategy Session - and it's an smart as you'd expect it to be.

Prepare to be inspired! The MAGA response to the California fires reinforces a really hard truth - we're going to have to save ourselves. They want to argue about bathrooms and genders and debate how many rounds can fit in a standard issue magazine. But they are not here to solve real problems. Tonight, Maya welcomed Alfredo Morales - and we are all better for it. Alfredo fought fires in California for two years while incarcerated. His work - and the work of some 3,000 other inmates involved in California fire suppression each year - saves countless lives and huge swaths of land and property. In a world where the powerful spend their time placing blame and sucking up as much wealth as possible, it’s Americans like us - and Alfredo - who are going to have to step into the breach and solve problems.

Simon Rosenberg joined Stuart Stevens for a fascinating, inspiring discussion of how we fight back and win against the MAGA Administration and its buffoons, grifters, disinformation spewers, sycophants, and all those who just generally want to dismantle America and separate us from our Western allies. Not so fast, Donald - we know you're the wannabe emperor with no clothes and we're pulling back the curtain.

It’s January, so it’s time for everyone’s annual commitment to become healthier and more fit in the new year…and then be radicalized and become a Christian Nationalist? It’s 2025, so yes, that’s a thing. Tonight, Maya May and her guest Judah Elias (werewolffbarmitzvah) are talking about the health and fitness to far-right radical pipeline.

January 6th came and went without much fanfare...this time. Millions of people hold their breath, waiting for the next administration to take power. We are not waiting, and you shouldn't either. Tuesday, Stuart and Rick were joined by former Senator Doug Jones to talk about how democrats - and all of us - can fight back starting right now.

Maya is joined by Matthew D. Taylor, expert on Christian Nationalism and Independent Charismatic Christianity, and Jeremy Alder, comedian and survivor of a fundamentalist missionary upbringing. Can we punch up at Christian Nationalism - oh Hell yes and we had better start doing so NOW!
