Brian and Ed Krassenstein (writers, entrepreneurs, and political commentators) join Chris Cuomo to talk about how social media fuels outrage and misinformation — and what can still be done to fix it. The brothers, known for their outspoken political commentary and massive online following, discuss what they’ve learned about truth, bias, and the business of being loud in America’s attention economy.
Cuomo challenges whether online activism has become more about engagement than honesty, and the Krassensteins share how they navigate criticism, disinformation, and their own evolution in public life. Together they explore what real accountability looks like in a digital world designed to divide.

Chris Cuomo breaks down how the looming government shutdown and economic frustration are shaping the midterm elections — from tariffs and health care costs to the political messaging war over who’s to blame. He looks at what’s really driving voters’ anger and why both parties are struggling to connect with the middle.

Cuomo also examines how Kalshi’s political betting markets are tracking the race in real time, showing where the smart money thinks control of Congress could land. With inflation stubborn, wages lagging, and families squeezed, Cuomo argues that the real election issue isn’t ideology — it’s survival.

Robert Weissman (Co-President, Public Citizen) joins Chris Cuomo following the No Kings protests of October 18, 2025 — a nationwide movement that drew an estimated five to seven million people across more than 2,700 U.S. cities in what organizers call the largest single-day protest in American history. As one of the event’s lead organizers, Weissman explains how Public Citizen, the progressive consumer-advocacy group founded by Ralph Nader, helped mobilize Americans around the message that no president — not even Donald Trump — stands above the law.

Former National Security Advisor John Bolton has been indicted on 18 counts tied to classified documents — a case that underscores how far the Trump administration’s Justice Department is willing to go to target former insiders. Chris Cuomo breaks down what’s behind the indictment, why the evidence may not hold up, and what it reveals about how “lawfare” has become the weapon of choice in American politics.

From selective prosecutions to the politics of revenge, Chris explains how the Bolton case blurs the line between accountability and retribution — and why that distinction matters for every future administration. He also looks at how the Kalshi betting markets are reacting to the indictment, what those odds suggest about who might be next, and why American justice is increasingly being treated like a political wager.

Chris Cuomo responds to a new round of listener calls and viewer comments, including reactions to Donald Trump’s “I hate my opponents” remark, criticism of his take on Jimmy Kimmel’s removal from air, and debate over the killing of Charlie Kirk.

He also addresses confusion surrounding the Epstein files, responds to listeners who say he’s changed politically, and closes with a Morse-coded message from a viewer calling for peace.

In late September, President Donald Trump issued National Security Presidential Memorandum 7 (NSPM-7) — a sweeping directive ordering federal agencies to target what it calls “domestic terrorism” linked to so-called anti-fascist movements. Citing incidents like the assassination of Charlie Kirk and riots in Los Angeles and Portland, the memo instructs law enforcement to investigate “anti-American,” “anti-capitalist,” and “anti-Christian” ideologies — while omitting far-right violence entirely.

Chris Cuomo breaks down why NSPM-7 may be the most alarming policy yet of Trump’s presidency: how it redefines dissent as extremism, blurs the line between free speech and criminal intent, and expands federal power to police ideas instead of actions."

A Trump White House video blames Democrats for the government shutdown — accusing them of pushing $1.5 trillion in spending, “open borders,” and even “health care for illegal aliens.” Chris Cuomo shows how these exaggerated claims are designed to stoke anger, divide voters, and make outrage the easiest path to political wins.
