  • BREAKING: The House Has Voted — But Can Trump Still Hide The Epstein Files?

    BREAKING: The House Has Voted — But Can Trump Still Hide The Epstein Files?
    Nov 18 2025
    The U.S. House just voted to force the Trump administration to release every document it has on convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and his powerful associates. The move comes after Congress released 23,000 pages of Epstein emails and text messages, a data dump that references Donald Trump more than 1,500 times and has so thoroughly tarnished former Treasury Secretary Larry Summers that he’s stepped back from public commitments. Now, many more revelations are likely to come. In this special episode of Lever Time, David Sirota sits down for a live interview with two people who’ve led the long and brutal fight to expose the Epstein scandal. First, investigative journalist Julie K. Brown, whose reporting originally broke open the Epstein scandal, joined the podcast to explore the revelations from the newly released documents. Then, David spoke with Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), who’s leading the bipartisan fight to force the government to release the rest of the Epstein files — but who questions whether the Senate will sneak an escape hatch into the bill.

  • MONEYBOMB, Part 6: Did A Federal Judge Sink Super PACs? (With Larry Lessig)

    MONEYBOMB, Part 6: Did A Federal Judge Sink Super PACs? (With Larry Lessig)
    Nov 13 2025
    Maine overwhelmingly voted last year to end Super PACs. A federal judge blocked the ballot measure — but left a kill switch inside the ruling. Larry Lessig, a professor at Harvard Law School and head of the nonprofit Equal Citizens, is ready to flip that switch and take his case to the Supreme Court. In our final episode of Lever Time’s MONEYBOMB series, David Sirota speaks with Lessig about the legal battle against Super PACs and why he believes that we can stop Citizens United without touching it.

  • MONEYBOMB, Part 5: Why Populism Is Now Centrism (With Adam Bonica)

    MONEYBOMB, Part 5: Why Populism Is Now Centrism (With Adam Bonica)
    Nov 6 2025
    For the first time in the Citizens United era of billionaires and corporate money buying U.S. elections, change may be afoot. This week, Democrats campaigning on a populist message won resounding victories in the face of big-money opposition. An aging party establishment is still calling for Democrats to be more moderate and centrist, but what if the center has moved? What if populism is the new centrism? On this new episode of Lever Time’s MONEYBOMB series, David Sirota sits down with Stanford political scientist Adam Bonica, author of the newsletter On Data and Democracy, to discover how the labels that we use in our political system are changing — and how this week’s election results could shift the Democratic Party’s battle against corporate power and the oligarchy.
