Mark opens today’s episode with a new reported monologue on one of the most consequential stories of this century: how senior Biden officials attempted to cover up the president’s cognitive decline—and how the Dominant Media was complicit in that effort. Drawing on newly released testimony from top administration officials, he examines how threats, denial, and silence shaped coverage before the 2024 election, and why the lack of accountability continues to plague both political and media institutions, deepening the public’s distrust.

Then, Representative Ro Khanna joins to discuss how to restore faith in the American Dream. The Silicon Valley Democrat weighs in on the economy, the shutdown’s impact, and how the Left can reconnect with working-class voters. Plus, is Khanna 2028 on the horizon?

Finally, Mark speaks with New York Post journalists Rikki Schlott and Lydia Moynihan, along with Alex Seitz-Wald, Deputy Editor of the MidCoast Villager in Maine. They analyze shifting voter sentiment ahead of Tuesday’s elections and the rise of Democratic figures Zohran Mamdani and Graham Platner—and unpack why local media remains vital for holding power accountable, rebuilding community trust, and understanding the nation’s political mood.
