It’s casual Friday. Today in studio for the first hour is writer and editor of the American Prospect, David Dayen.

Sam and David dive deep into the SENR Bill, the Genius Act and the Big Beautiful Bill.

Of course we check in with the looming potential American invasion of Iran.

And we close out the first half with the NYC Mayoral primaries. If you live in NYC remember to vote and don’t rank Cuomo.

In the fun half we dig deeper into ...

It’s Emancipation Thursday.

On today’s show we watch archival news footage covering the passing of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and discuss the deterioration of that landmark legislation.

Meanwhile, the Iran war drums beat louder. Trump does a 180 on his supposed “anti-war” position as the same old Military Industrial Complex arguments used for Iraq are recycled.

We chat with Michael Carroll from the Wilderness Foundation about the...

Another busy day in the derailed circus train that is Trump's administration.

On today's show, Tucker Carlson humiliates Ted Cruz into admitting that the US is involved in Israel’s war in Iran. Broken clock, etc.

We talk to Jasper Nathanial about his piece for The Baffler titled “The Annexation of the West Bank is Complete”. Check his other work at infinitejaz@substack,com

We are also joined by New York City Comptroller Brad Lander...

Veeeeery busy day for us at the Majority Report today, with a new front of Israel's military rampage opening up with Iran, Donald Trump holding what turned out to be a rinky dinky military parade, political assassinations in Minnesota, No Kings protests across the country, and AOC and Zohran holding a joint rally in NYC. We get to all of that today, plus a great interview with Stephen Wertheim from the American Statecraft Program a...

It's Casual Friday, and it is so casual that we have pre-taped today's show Thursday evening in order to attend Emma's wedding. Sam starts off by discussing the implications of Senator Alex Padilla being man-handled and handcuffed by federal agents while trying to ask DHS Secretary Kristi Noem. He gets further into that and Donald Trump's propensity to politicizing the military with The Nation's Jeet Heer. Check out Jeet's writing ...

It's a Matt-jority top of the show today, with Sam joining a little later with an interview with Slate's Mark Joseph Stern about the goings on at the Supreme Court. The Trump administration is taking it's assault on democracy to the court, and there are several important cases we all need to be keeping an eye on. Check out Mark's reporting here: https://slate.com/author/mark-joseph-stern

After that in the Fun Half, it's Matt, Brand...

It's an Emmajority Wednesday (I know, we're as confused as you are) and we have two great guests for you today. First, we cover Donald Trump's ominous threats to protesters who are upset about ICE raids in Los Angeles and around the country.

After that, Emma talks to journalist and author Omar El Akkad about his new book "One Day Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This" which reckons with the failure and refusal of the West to ...

It's Newsday Tuesday™ with the MR crew and we'll be digging into the Trump administration's deployment of federal troops to Los Angeles amid protests over ICE raids there. Pete Hegseth tries to justify why federal troops are in LA during a House Appropriations subcommittee hearing by pushing falsehoods about both the situation on the ground, the state and local response and federal policies involving the deployment of troops. Meanw...

It's Casual Friday my friends, and boy do we have a lot to celebrate. Elon Musk and Donald Trump are having an ugly public break up and we are here for it. Bit what does all this mean for Trump's Big Beautiful Bill? Heather "Digby" Parton is here to help us break it all down.

Happy Emmajority Report Thursday to all who celebrate! As if that wasn't enough, it's also AOC endorses Zohran Day, which comes the day after Zohran wipes the floor with Andrew Cuomo Day. We needed to bask in the glory at the top of the show and damn it felt good.

It's an Sam Solo Wednesday, and we have the latest on the Big Beautiful Bill inching its way through Congress. Some of the cuts will impact federally-backed science institutions, including weather monitoring. Florida meteorologist John Morales tells his viewers on air that he doesn't think he'll be able to predict the paths of hurricanes this season as he has in previous years because of the defunding of vital monitoring institutio...
