On this episode of Mea Culpa, I turn to someone experiencing the chaos of Trump’s America from inside the halls of Congress, Representative Steve Cohen of Tennessee. Together, we break down the fallout from the longest government shutdown in U.S. history, including devastating SNAP cuts, rising job losses, and how Trump’s so-called “booming economy” is built on cruelty and corruption. From unapproved military strikes to the weaponization of power, Rep. Cohen offers an insider’s account of the humanitarian and political toll of Trump’s reckless governance. As Democrats fight to sustain momentum after major election wins, Rep. Cohen pledges to keep holding his colleagues in Congress accountable.
