Trump and his kind are taking a wrecking ball to the US economy. The market is dropping by huge numbers each day, and the response from this administration is to fire lifelong public servants by the tens of thousands, and pretend the loss of these family sustaining jobs will have no effect on the larger economy. They're wrong; they don't care that they're wrong, and just like in every other recession the GOP has caused, working families are going to have to pay for it all. Randi Weingarten of the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) and Alex Lawson of Social Security Works are our guests.

During the campaign, Trump and every GOP member running for office swore up and down that the GOP had no plans to cut Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. They lied, and it is nothing new. They lie about these things in every election, and in every election ,they never seem to have to pay a price for their lies, current or past. We discuss this and more with Economics Professor Matias Vernengo and Kieran Cuadras from the Communications Workers of America (WFWU-CWA)

It's only been a few weeks, but our American freedoms are taking a beating, and if we're going to get out of this, we're going to need something from Democrats that has been lacking for the last half-century or so ... leadership. Our guests today are Scott Paul from The Alliance for American Manufacturing and Lori Wallach of The Economic Liberties Project.

As workers all over the country wait to be fired from their jobs, Trump has decided that it would be a great idea to remove collective bargaining rights from 50,000 union TSA workers, many of whom probably voted for him and will not understand how they voted away their own futures. But such is life in the Trump chaos bubble that we all now live in. To help us work through some of the crazy, we're joined by Arthur Stamoulis of the Citizens Trade Campaign, and Sarah Burris of Raw Story.

To tariff or not to tariff - that is the question. Trump, upon learning just how destructive his tariffs will be, is now "pausing" them as markets crash and prices skyrocket. It's typical Trump chaos, and it isn't going to stop anytime soon. We discuss this and more with Katie Harris of The Bluegreen Alliance and Will Rice of Americans for Tax Fairness.

Trump's speech to Congress was a firehose of lies ... so of course it polled well. And Democrats chose a silly and disjointed response to it that left most of non-fascist America scratching our heads. We discuss this and more with Scott Paul of The Alliance for American Manufacturing and Professor Ken Mash.

As predicted, Trump used his SOTU speech to try to pin his wheelbarrow of stupid mistakes on Joe Biden as the US economy starts to nosedive. It's almost impossible to believe that an economy so healthy could go so wrong so quickly, but no one bankrupts businesses like Trump bankrupts businesses, so tanking the largest economy in the world is just more of the same. Sara Estep from The Center for American Progress and Alex Nguyen of Mother Jones are our guests.

With the stock market tanking and the Russians running the White House, President Trump is set to address Congress in what will certainly be the most bonkers State of the Union speech ... maybe ever. Our guests Sarah Burris of raw Story and Dr. Anthony Estreet will help us work through the Trump agenda and what it's doing to American working families.

Anyone who saw that Oval Office hatchet job last week knows that we don't want to talk about it ... but we absolutely have to talk about it. To help us do so, we invited Trygve Olsen from The Lincoln Project, and veteran and longtime friend of the show Rich Ojeda, host of "Ojeda Live." Join us as we discuss the most disgraceful day in the history of US foreign policy and how it will likely affect America's working families.

After saying they wouldn't Social Security, they're now cutting Social Security. After saying they would never cut Medicare, they're cutting Medicare. And after they said they would never ever cut Medicaid ... and the list keeps growing. And days after calling the Ukrainian President a dictator, Trump just told the press "I would never do that" when asked about it. It's almost like they're making it up as they go. David Gonzalez from The American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) is our guest.
