The Chris Cuomo Project

Chris Cuomo breaks down why President Trump’s new budget reconciliation bill—officially called the “One Big Beautiful Bill”—could become the defining issue of the midterms. While Republicans frame the legislation as a path to tax relief and fiscal discipline, Cuomo argues it adds trillions to the debt and deficit, hurts the same working-class voters who helped elect Trump, and exposes deep fractures within the GOP. Plus, Kirk Elliott, Ph.D. (Owner and Founder, Kirk Elliott Precious Metals) joins to explain how mounting debt, persistent inflation, and Moody’s recent downgrade of the U.S. credit rating are reshaping the financial landscape—and what individuals can do to protect their money Follow and subscribe to The Chris Cuomo Project on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube for new episodes every Tuesday and Thursday: https://linktr.ee/cuomoproject Join Chris Ad-Free On Substack: http://thechriscuomoproject.substack.com Go to KEPM.com/cuomo and take control of your future.Get smart.

Tim Dillon (comedian and podcast host, The Tim Dillon Show) joins Chris Cuomo to break down the increasingly blurry lines between politics, media, and entertainment. They discuss why comedians are often saying what journalists won’t, how audiences respond to satire in a fractured media environment, and what it means when jokes land closer to the truth than the news. Dillon reflects on public backlash, political polarization, and the pressure comedians face in a culture that demands both authenticity and outrage. Cuomo and Dillon also examine the performance of politics, the role of independent voices in shaping discourse, and whether comedy is becoming one of the last places people go to hear what they really think.

Chris Cuomo breaks down why the long-term impact of Trump’s trade policies and tariff tactics remains widely misunderstood. He argues that the real consequences of Trump’s economic moves haven’t even started yet — and that both media and political leaders are pretending otherwise. From supply chain shifts to small business strain and rising consumer costs, Cuomo warns that chaos in the global marketplace doesn’t equal progress. He challenges the populist narrative by asking why ordinary Americans are told to sacrifice while the ultra-rich continue accumulating more. With inflation, borrowing, and investment uncertainty looming, Cuomo pushes for a deeper look at who really wins under “America First” economics. Later in the episode, Kirk Elliott, Ph.D. (Owner and Founder, Kirk Elliott Precious Metals) joins the show to discuss how investors can protect themselves and adapt in the face of mounting economic uncertainty.

Chris Cuomo examines the media response to President Biden’s cognitive decline and recent cancer diagnosis, arguing that the real scandal isn’t a cover-up—it’s that the truth was plainly visible all along. Citing Biden’s long-known history of brain aneurysms, age-related decline, and now prostate cancer, Cuomo pushes back on the idea that these developments were hidden or suppressed. Instead, Cuomo claims the media deliberately chose to downplay Biden’s condition to help him defeat Trump in 2020 and beyond. He argues that this isn’t a conspiracy—it’s worse: a decision rooted in political preference, not journalistic integrity. Cuomo says what happened wasn’t secrecy, but strategic silence.

Terry McAuliffe (72nd Governor of Virginia and former chairman, Democratic National Committee) joins Chris Cuomo to assess the state of the Democratic Party and what went wrong in the 2024 election. From failing to connect on core issues like inflation, immigration, and working-class economic anxiety, to misreading the appeal of culture war politics and populist messaging, McAuliffe lays out why Democrats are struggling — and what needs to change. He and Cuomo debate the party’s messaging strategy, Kamala Harris’s political positioning, and whether MAGA’s success stems from Trump’s policies or his symbolic power as a disruptor. McAuliffe also shares his experience on the front lines in Ukraine and weighs in on what the party must do to win back Congress and move forward after Biden. Note: This episode was recorded prior to President Biden's cancer diagnosis.

Chris Cuomo reacts to Donald Trump’s decision to accept the use of a luxury jet from Qatar, calling it the clearest proof yet that Trump’s populist image is a lie. He explains why this isn’t just about optics or foreign influence—it’s a symbol of how power protects itself, and how the very figure meant to “drain the swamp” is embracing the perks of the establishment. From presidential ethics loopholes to foreign access, Cuomo breaks down how this one gesture reveals everything about who benefits from the system, who gets left behind, and why outrage only flows in one direction depending on whose team you’re on.

Chris Cuomo responds to Donald Trump’s remark that “maybe a kid can have just two dolls, not 20” and says the message isn’t wrong—it’s just aimed at the wrong people. Instead of telling working families to cut back, Cuomo argues, Trump should be speaking to the billionaires and corporate class who’ve grown wealthier by shifting burden onto everyone else. He breaks down how capitalism without responsibility has hollowed out the middle class, why economic burden is falling on the wrong side of the system, and how Trump’s populist message continues to resonate—despite missing the real target.

Chris Cuomo unpacks the backlash against Senator John Fetterman and argues that Democrats are undermining their own by prioritizing ideological purity over pragmatic progress. Responding to a harsh New York Magazine article, featuring quotes from Fetterman’s former chief of staff and anonymous party sources, Cuomo criticizes the renewed questioning of Fetterman’s mental fitness and says the attacks are less about policy failure than about his willingness to support Israel and work with Republicans on immigration and trade. He defends Fetterman’s “progressive pragmatism” as a path Democrats should embrace and warns that the party risks losing the majority by turning on those trying to deliver real results.

Jake Barber and James Fowler (Co-Founders, Skywatcher Technologies) join Chris Cuomo to share their firsthand experiences tracking unidentified aerial phenomena (UAPs) and sounding the alarm on what they say is a major failure of U.S. transparency. The pair describe how their privately run “Skywatcher” system can detect UAPs that evade conventional detection—and why they believe the government has failed to acknowledge red (adversarial) and “other” (unknown) incursions into U.S. airspace. Chris pushes them on whether this is a national security crisis, a government cover-up, or a new era of misunderstood physics—and asks what it’ll take to get the public and policymakers to finally care.
