The Majority Report with Sam Seder

It’s Monday! Sam and Emma are joined by Dave Weigel, politics writer at Semafor, author of the "Americana" newsletter to preview the first round of major elections after the Trump/Musk regime’s DOGE overhaul. First, they run through updates on Trump’s tariffs, a return of stagflation, the rejection of Mike Waltz, the conviction of Marine Le Pen, DOGE’s Social Security crash, RFK’s gutting of infection disease and HIV/AIDS policy, Tesla protests, Tesla fires, Iran’s response to Trump, and the Senate GOP’s budget push, before expanding on Trump’s authoritarian crackdown on migrants and watching Elon attempt to rally a Wisconsin crowd of sycophants. Dave Weigel then joins, reflecting on the rapid radicalization of the race for the last seat Wisconsin Supreme Court since the injection of over $20 million of Elon Musk’s money, going from the culmination of a decade-long battle by Wisconsin Democrats to break down the GOP gerrymander to a full-scale (in Elon’s words) battle for the “future of civilization.” After expanding on the more personal stakes Elon Musk has in the makeup of the Wisconsin Supreme Court, and why, despite that, the messaging has almost entirely centered on supporting Trump’s agenda, Weigel, Sam, and Emma shift to the upcoming special elections in Florida, as they unpack the fear the GOP is facing over their dwindling margins over the last few months, highlighting some particularly brutal campaigning from Democrat Josh Weil against “unhinged,” “anti-American” Randy Fine, and the importance of tying the Right to Musk’s anti-Medicaid, anti-Social Security agenda. Wrapping up, Dave touches on the potential GOP response if these margins continue to shrink, and how DOGE has allowed them to change their messaging.

And in the Fun Half: Emma tackles the Trump/Musk agenda of boosting the immigration of *white* South Africans to the US, unpacks the Working Family Party’s endorsement of four candidates for New York City Mayor, and watches Zohran Mamdani continue to absolutely nail his messaging campaign. The MR Team also touches on Vivian Wilson's appearance with Hasan, growing regret from MAGA-voting federal workers, before taking a few calls to unpack Trump’s Greenland push, the devastating impact of Trump’s authoritarian crackdown on DACA Dreamers, and Canada’s Mark Carney, plus, your IMs!

The Majority Report with Sam Seder - https://majorityreportradio.com/

It's Friday! Sam and Emma welcome Heather 'Digby' Parton back to the program for a look at another very busy week in news. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on HHS’ mass firings, Dem lawmakers’ demand for the release of the abducted Tufts student, Trump’s tariffs, Trump’s targeting of Smithsonian over “ideology”, the Senate GOP’s love for overdraft fees, HUD’s wage theft, Judge Boasberg’s disciplining of the Trump Administration, the scrapping of Elise Stefanik’s UN role, Elon Musk’s attempt to buy out the Wisconsin Supreme Court election, and Trump’s executive order to cancel union contracts, also touching on Schumer’s absurd messaging campaign in the wake of his budget capitulation, and watching Elise Stefanik grapple with her scrapped promotion live. Digby then joins, as she, Sam, and Emma dive right into the genuine danger between the lines of absurdity in the Trump Administration’s Signal scandal, from the clear sign that they’re moving away from official (documented) channels to the executive role being played by psycho-White nationalist Stephen Miller. After expanding on the horrifying aesthetic role Donald Trump is playing in the administration, and the tightening of the inner circle in Trump 2.0, Parton reflects on the genuine shock over how quickly US institutions folded to the threat of fascism, from Columbia to corporations to major law firms, and tackles the deliberate nature of the Trump Administration’s agenda of economic chaos, before wrapping up by touching on the few remaining levers of power Democrats have to push back against fascism.

And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch as the Trump Cabinet take various unique paths to avoid any questions about the ongoing Signal Scandal, Marco Rubio unpacks exactly why due process doesn’t matter, and Josh Hawley goes insane over the right to disappear student activists. They also dive into some recent controversy on the left and why playing Dave Rubin’s games with you Dave Rubin’s prizes, and talk with Vitor from Framingham about political conversations with right-wingers, plus, your calls and IMs!

The Majority Report with Sam Seder - https://majorityreportradio.com/

It's Thursday! Emma welcomes Noah Kulwin to discuss the ongoing protests against Israel. First, Emma runs through updates on the Trump Administration’s designation of Mike Waltz as fall guy, Der Spiegel’s expose on Trump’s Cabinets’ security issues, GOP infighting, Kristi Noam’s fascist photo op, the disappearing of a Tufts student, Trump’s frozen funding freeze, the Trump Administration’s attack on public health, Trump’s tariffs, Musk’s political bribes, and Israel’s ongoing slaughter in Gaza, before watching Hegseth (with Trump’s “help”) try to clear his name in the Signal scandal. Noah Kulwin then joins, first touching on his experience taking part in the JVP protest at Trump Tower in New York over the Trump Administration’s disappearing of Columbia student activist Mahmoud Khalil, before diving deeper into the clear and thorough connection between the US’ support for fascism abroad and the descent into fascism at home, as we watch Israel resume its genocide on the Palestinian people while legal residents are picked up off the street by plain-clothes officers over pro-Palestinian speech – a Tufts student the most recent. Expanding on the global context for our current moment, Kulwin also touches on the particular role of the War on Terror in bolstering the rapid expansion of our surveillance state amid xenophobic, nationalist fervor. After expanding on the role of Jewish organizing in standing up to this fascist crackdown, Noah wraps up by emphasizing the need to Get Organized! what that means, and how to go about it at this moment. After briefly touching on the Mega Marcha, a demonstration against the Trump administration’s immigration policies, being held in Dallas this Saturday – which our planned second guest, Domingo García, chairman of the political arm of the League of United Latin American Citizens, helped organize – they wrap up the free half by highlighting Kristi Noam’s insane fascist photo-op outside of a migrant cell in El Salvador. And in the Fun Half: Emma is joined by Brandon Sutton and Matt Binder as they watch Crowder and Co. breakdown over Mike Waltz giving the left an “easy own” by… accidentally leaking national security details to a journalist. They also talk with NotNick Fuentes from North Texas about the Atlantic’s connection to the right, Henry from NC has a pitch for the minimum wage, and the MR Crew dives deep into the insane backlash to Rachel Zegler speaking up for Palestine at this moment, from Ben Shapiro to the nepo-baby son of a mega-producer. Al from Mass also calls in about organizing, and James Comer – get this – has a problem with NPR, plus, your calls and IMs!

The Majority Report with Sam Seder - https://majorityreportradio.com/

It's Wednesday! Sam welcomes Joel Lava from Tesla Takedown and Mase Veney, an organizer from the Philly Whole Foods Union. First, Sam runs through updates on the Trump Administration’s Signal scandal over their accidental leaking of war plans, the Supreme Court’s affirmation of Biden’s ghost gun regulations, Pennsylvania’s special election, the HHS’s anti-vaxxer-headed study on autism, trickling details about the legal status of certain Venezuelans renditioned to El Salvador, Trump/Musk’s plan to lay off thousands from the Treasury, the Senate GOP’s budget, JD Vance’s visit to Greenland, SpaceX’s secret Chinese backers, and Trump’s nomination for Social Security head, before diving into some of the biggest updates to the Trump team’s Signal scandal with the full release of messages after Tusli Gabbard’s claim that there was “no classified” information in the chat. Joel Lava then joins, diving right into the idea behind the wildly successful “Tesla Takedown” protests in attempting to undercut the overwhelming political power by hitting at its root: his massive wealth tied up in Tesla stocks. After expanding on the greater anti-Trump roots of this, Lava and Sam unpack the protests' goals and how far the stock would have to fall to really screw over Elon’s business ventures, wrapping up with how you can join a protest near you – or even start your own! Mase Veney then dives into his personal history working at Whole Foods in Philadelphia, the initial bonding between coworkers over their shared experiences of mistreatment and the company’s exploitation of the power imbalance, and the rapid evolution of the organizing process once he and his coworkers realized the overwhelming support the idea of unionization already had, quickly moving to work with United Food & Commercial Workers International to capitalize on their institutional knowledge of organizing within the grocery industry. After expanding on the important role UFCW played in helping them win the union vote with a strong majority, Veney and Sam shift into the Trump era, as they unpack how the company’s refusal to recognize the union is bolstered by a neutered NLRB and a hostile Trump Administration, before wrapping up the interview by emphasizing the continuing campaign to keep the all coworkers invested in the fight, and how those of us outside can support the effort! And in the Fun Half: Sam watches MIke Walz try to sidestep questions about his Signal scandal from an incredulous Laura Ingraham, Senator Elizabeth Warren evicerates Trump’s Social Security nominee and their relationship to DOGE, and Donald Trump shouts out the real one Chuck Schumer. Lis from California shares his perspective as a DACA recipient, and Kowalski from Nebraska unpacks Trump's terrible tariffs. Sam also watches Tim Pool and Co. go insane at the morally consistent belief in due process for all, and jumps off some criticism from the Pod Save guys as he espouses the need to unite pro-democracy and economic populist messaging. Tammy from Montreal explores a major win for Canada’s indigenous communities, Nathan from Illinois talks organized religion and authoritarianism, and the MR Team dissects early results out of PA’s special election, plus, your calls and IMs!

The Majority Report with Sam Seder - https://majorityreportradio.com/

 

 

 

Ben Wikler, Chair of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin, joins to discuss the critical Wisconsin Supreme Court race. Then, Ezra Levin, co-founder of Indivisible, examines the direction and leadership of the Democratic Party. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on the shuttering of USAID, Russia-Ukraine ceasefire negotiations, Israel’s revamped assault on Gaza, the DOJ’s refusal to answer for its illegal deportations, Trump’s killing of FTC operations, the gutting of the SSA, the abduction of Mahmoud Khalil, Trump’s attempt to re-segregate, the Fed not to cut rates, the release of the JFK Files, GOP Sen. Eichorn’s confirmation of pedocon theory, and HHS’s gutting of HIV prevention, also highlighting Schumer’s ongoing shame tour and the ongoing backlash the GOP’s facing at their town halls. Ben Wikler then joins, diving right into the story of Wisconsin politics during the 2010s – and what it can foretell about this moment for our country – with a GOP trifecta coming into 2011 and using a supposed budget crisis to legitimize a complete crippling of the opposition as well as the progressive and worker movements, unleashing extensively gerrymandered maps, engaging in blatantly discriminatory voter suppression, and explicitly targeting language around progressive issues (e.g. banning the term “climate change”). After diving deep into the particular role the Conservative majority on the State Supreme Court played in bolstering the unparalleled executive power of Governor Scott Walker, and how a revamped focus on the Court helped begin the Democrats’ slow crawl back into control, Wikler zeroes in on the ongoing State Supreme Court race between Brad Schimel – dedicated MAGA-Musker – and Susan Crawford, exploring the insane multi-million dollar investment into Schimel by Elon Musk, including blatantly illegal propaganda misrepresenting both his own organization and the candidates, wrapping up by emphasizing the importance of tying the entire conservative movement to the MAGA/Musk agenda they support, and exploring what those of us on the outside can do to help. Ezra Levin then joins, first running through the inception of Indivisible in the wake of the 2016 elections to combat the heinous agenda of Donald Trump and address the vacuum in Democratic leadership, before diving deep into the culmination of this effort, with last week’s failure by Democratic Leadership in the Senate to stand up against the Trump/Musk budget seeing an unprecedented level of backlash, with their caucus, House Leadership, and the mainstream media all leveling blunt questions of Chuck Schumer. Levin, Sam, and Emma parse through a few of Schumer’s recent TV appearances, as they dissect his utter strategic failures in using leverage in their fight with the GOP or in working with fellow Democrats, before wrapping up by tackling the future of this fight as Democrats look to find other pathways for messaging, and what those of us at home can do to help Indivisible’s fight. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch Chuck Schumer get slammed by Chris Hayes in the wake of his humiliating capitulation to Trump and the GOP, listen to Elon Musk’s plea to empathize with the automotive class, and unpack Tim Pool’s attempt to revamp his relevancy on the coattails of Sam’s Jubilee video. Tonya from Washington has some film comparisons for the modern-day conservative movement, and another caller has a thought experiment, plus, your calls and IMs!

The Majority Report with Sam Seder - https://majorityreportradio.com/

It’s News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma are joined by Austin Kocher, political and legal geographer studying immigration enforcement, and Assistant Research Professor at Syracuse University. First, Sam and Emma run through updates on Israel’s  bombardment of Gaza – breaking another ceasefire and killing hundreds – Trump’s back-and-forth with the judicial system, DOGE’s assault on the US Government, Trump’s union-busting pick for NLRB General Counsel, Trump’s crackdown on pro-Palestinian speech, the FDA’s move to delapidated office spaces, an abortion arrest out of Texas, and Trump’s attack on the Social Security Administration, before expanding on Israel’s violation of a ceasefire in Gaza with strikes killing over 300, and setting the stage for a potential return to ground invasion. Professor Austin Kocher then joins, diving right into the Trump Administration’s recent deportation of hundreds of Venezuelans to El Salvadorian “gulags” under the guise of association with militant gang “Tren de Aragua,” exploring the unsurprising revelations about the *lack* of association between many of these migrants and the gang, and why authoritarian President of El Salvador Nayib Bukele was so happy to bring these migrants into his expansive prison labor system ($6 million will help). Next, Professor Kocher steps back to assess the insane legal “strategy” grounding Trump’s agenda, with his blantant push for chaos allowing for his regime to carry out astonishingly inhumane actions amid countless injuctions and court orders, and why Judge Boasberg’s push to get attourney’s to sign onto their arguments might create some liability moving forward. After expanding on the regime’s obvious misrepresentation of who they are deporting, Austin, Sam, and Emma walk through the various layers of protection offered to immigrants in the US right now, including preemptive legal action, and knowing your rights, before wrapping up the interview by assessing exactly how absurd Trump’s claim of an “invasion” truly is. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma watch White House Spox. Karoline Leavitt attempt to claim verbal court orders don’t count, reflect on Trump’s growing friction with the courts, and unpack Steve Bannon’s and Fox News’ respective attempts to defend Trump’s invocation of the Alien Enemies Act. Tim Walz and Chris Murphy begin to turn the tide of how Democrats are talking about the neoliberal era, Brady from Kentucky discusses a potential run for office, and a bunch of Big Tech fraudsters lie about the “failure” of Social Security, Phil from Delaware tackles SB-21, plus, your calls and IMs!

Also joining the program is Austin Kocher; political and legal geographer studying immigration enforcement, Assistant Research Professor at Syracuse University.
