  • Senator Blumenthal Exposes the DOGE Boondoggle
    Sep 4 2025
    Senator Richard Blumenthal takes Harry through his bombshell report exposing the colossal waste generated by the ironically-named Department of Government Efficiency during its rampage through the federal government. Illegal firings, spoiled food aid, and the installation of Elon Musk's overpaid minions all came with a price—both in billions of dollars and in quality of government. Plus, the two former federal prosecutors talk about Trump's efforts to push unqualified loyalists into top law enforcement posts with or without Senate approval.

    Sep 1 2025
    Guest host Jonathan Alter convenes Peter Baker, Molly Jong-Fast, and Charlie Sykes to talk through Trump’s latest lunge for unchecked power. The quartet dig into the week’s flurry of controversial firings and the prospects for a long-promised, now long-overdue peace deal in Ukraine. They then put Trump’s mafioso tactics under a microscope, investigating why they’ve worked so well, and what everyone can do to resist them.Mentioned in this episode:Jonathan’s Substack: https://oldgoats.substack.com/Peter’s reporting: https://www.nytimes.com/by/peter-baker#latestMolly’s podcast: https://fastpoliticspod.com/Charlie’s Substack: https://charliesykes.substack.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

Fentanyl is the #1 killer of Americans between 18 & 45 years of age. This podcast focuses on the root cause of the problem, potential solutions & how the DEA plans to destroy the chains supplying Fentanyl precursors & networks that distribute this killer. Audible targets advertisements on books of interest to me & I would like to see Audible do the same for this podcast as a public health issue relevant to American society.

Audible please advertise this podcast on the Fentanyl public health crisis

I'm a want to be nerd but I'll probably never get the chance to go to college. I love listening to podcasts like this because the legal system is very interesting and very important to a justice society. I say thank goodness for smart people! It's fascinating to listen to great legal minds discuss legal cases because they present so much detailed information throughout their conversations.

I Love Listening to Talking Feds!
