  • Stephanie Ruhle and Tom Saenz: Why Aren't People Freaking Out?

    Stephanie Ruhle and Tom Saenz: Why Aren't People Freaking Out?
    Sep 10 2025
    If Zohran Mamdani, as NYC mayor-elect, held a dinner with finance bros and threatened them with a huge wealth tax if they didn't sweet-talk him and say how much they agreed with his political vision, the Wall Street community would freak out. Yet, this version of a shakedown is *really* happening at the White House all the time and in response, the country's most powerful and wealthy business leaders can only trip over each other as they jostle for the chance to cut up Trump's well-done steak. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court is tripping over its own rulings to green-light ICE's racial profiling in Southern California.

    Stephanie Ruhle     and MALDEF's Tom Saenz join Tim Miller.

  • James Bennet: Trump Is Still Hacking the Media

    James Bennet: Trump Is Still Hacking the Media
    Sep 9 2025
    More than 10 years in, journalists still have not figured out how to cover Trump. He understands the media environment better than a lot of reporters, and knows his outrageous acts and statements command attention—and that people will not be able to finish processing one outrage before the next one comes down the pike. But now he's laying down the terms of how he expects to be covered, and media orgs are complying by hiring or giving airtime to MAGA avatars. In the process, journalists are failing to hold the powerful to account. Plus, Dems actually went on offense and got their hands on the Epstein birthday book, and Israel is aggressively embracing the age of impunity.

    The Economist's James Bennet joins Tim Miller.

  • Bill Kristol: Escalating the Authoritarian Project

    Bill Kristol: Escalating the Authoritarian Project
    Sep 8 2025
    In seven months, Trump has accumulated an astonishing amount of unchecked power. No one inside his administration is challenging his will, and Trump is assuming war powers with barely any explanation—while blacklisting Tom Hanks from West Point. At the same time, in the business world, only one MAGA-friendly hedge fund billionaire has raised mild concerns about the Fed, but top-shelf tech leaders can't thank Trump enough just for existing. But, the resistance is showing up in Chicago and the Dems have a chance to throw their weight around with a potential government shutdown. Plus, Vance is an amazingly succinct liar and the White House Rose Garden has had a Panera patio makeover.

    Bill Kristol joins Tim Miller.
