I spent almost twenty years wearing a badge. There were rules that weren’t optional: the Constitution first, human dignity always, and power only when you have to use it.

What I watched this week wasn’t policing. It was the costume of authority used to humiliate people in their own homes.

I’ve used strong language for a reason. When agents kick in a door …

I went live not long ago to cut through the noise with Sen. Ruben Gallego. We talked about power, impunity, and what accountability looks like when the stakes are real.

* Trump’s playbook right now — what’s theater vs. what actually moves power

* The Epstein “sweetheart deal” era and what real accountability should’ve looked like

* How to spot the next disinform…

Today the takes will drift away from that day. Their whitewashing will pivot to new stories.

Five years to the day, we went live with people who’ve carried the facts and the scars: Jim Acosta, Heather Cox Richardson, Glenn Kirschner, Adam Kinzinger, Miles Taylor, Olivia Troye, and more. We talked about what it looked like, what it cost, and why “move on”…

Five years ago I was a cop on the line at the Capitol. I know what happened because I wore it on my skin and in my bones. What’s worse than the violence is the lie that followed — the revision, the excuses, the politicians who cashed in on amnesia.

This live is about why the anger still matters.

I’m not here to relive trauma for clicks. I’m here because truth without memory dies fast. If you’ve felt the pressure to shut up and get over it, this one’s for you.

Hear the full conversation, and add your story in the comments — where you were, what you saw, what changed for you. If it lands, pass it to someone who still gives a damn. And if you want these lives the minute they drop, get on the list and stick with me.

I went live with Bryan Andrews, the musician who’s been blowing up feeds by saying out loud what a lot of people are feeling: the country’s not fine, and the folks catching the pain aren’t the ones on TV. We talked about why his songs hit and why his social media videos have been blowing up — working people getting squeezed, towns getting written off, t…

I went live with Glenn Kirschner to talk through something that should’ve shaken this entire country: two National Guardsmen were shot in Washington, D.C.

These men weren’t in a war zone.

They weren’t deployed overseas.

They were standing on an American street.

What happened here isn’t just another crime story. It’s a snapshot of where we are as a nation — …

Last week we went live with the women behind The Moment podcast to talk about what 2026 is really going to take. Here’s what stuck with me.

Women are already doing the work — organizing clinics and court support, flipping school boards that got hijacked by culture-war cosplay, keeping survivors safe while the state looks the other way, and turning kitch…

Cliff and I sat down and pulled the lens back on MAGA as a system—not just the loudest guy in the room, but the donor networks, media pipes, and hustle that keep it moving even when the headlines shift.

We talked about what it will actually take for Democrats to fight like they mean it in 2026—message discipline, ground game, and stopping the habit of b…

I jumped on with Jim Acosta Tuesday as returns came in, and the story in my backyard wasn’t subtle. In the DMV—Northern Virginia, the close-in suburbs, the I-95/I-66 corridors—voters slammed the brakes on the circus and picked competence.

You could see it precinct by precinct: the school-board scare tactics didn’t land, abortion bans got punished, and t…

On Halloween we set up in one of my favorite tattoo shops, machines buzzing, and talked about who is actually doing the work and where we are today. The first half we talked with Andy Zee (Refuse Fascism) about what’s coming in the streets—dates, actions, how to plug in if you’re new or coming back after a long year.

Then Peter and I opened it up and to…
