Lies, Loyalists, and The Loss of Democracy + A Conversation with Cenk Uygur

Today on Mea Culpa, I’m joined by Cenk Uygur, founder and CEO of online news network TYT and host of The Young Turks. One of the most fearless voices in progressive media, Cenk joins me to unpack America’s political free fall under Trump. We dig into the weaponization of government power and the absurd contrast between Trump’s lavish Gatsby-style parties and the millions left hungry as SNAP funding remains frozen. Cenk breaks down what Democrats must do after Tuesday’s wins to sustain momentum, and why it’s too soon to write off MAGA voters entirely. From Venezuelan “drug boat” attacks to calls to end the filibuster, we expose how, in politics, you must always follow the money.
