The Daily Blast: Trump Nixing of Dem State Disaster Aid Backfires, Screwing MAGA Voters
In recent days, President Trump has approved federal disaster aid for the red states of Nebraska, North Dakota, Missouri and Alaska while denying it to the blue states of Maryland, Vermont, and Illinois. The White House has not offered meaningful explanations for the discrepancies, which just happen to punish states that didn’t support him in 2024. But we noticed something interesting about this whole saga: In Maryland, the disasters and damage in question severely afflicted the state’s westernmost counties. Allegany and Garrett counties are in Appalachia, deep in Trump country: Both voted for Trump by at least 40 points. We talked to...

Do you have an idea of how America is being received by the Islamic world? If you don’t get their news, I can report that President Trump is a rock star in the Muslim world.President Trump is the most respected leader in the world. There is no doubt about this. However, MSNBC’s Steve Benen wrote in July of this year: Exactly two years ago this week, Donald Trump sat down with Fox News’ Bret Baier, and the host asked the Republican what he considers the most important issue facing the country.

The Daily Blast: Trump Press Sec Seethes as Epstein Spin Falls Apart in Briefing Fiasco
House Democrats have released Jeffrey Epstein’s “Birthday Book,” and it’s brutal for President Trump. His note to Epstein is real and it appears to bear his distinctive signature. There’s also an image of Epstein holding a big check that discusses selling a “fully depreciated” woman to Trump. On Tuesday, press secretary Karoline Leavitt, visibly irritated, offered some truly absurd spin about Trump’s signature on the note to Epstein, throwing in obsequious praise to boot. She dodged a question about the check with rank misdirection while curtly brushing off further queries. The upshot: White House spin looked comically awful throu...

I've been using a new "Opposite World" theme to open the show each day because we living in a time where nothing is as it should be.

The Truth about the Big Ugly, Social Security, Healthcare & More with Alex Lawson
The Social Security Administration sent out an unsolicited email a few days ago, making far fetched claims about what ‘benefits’ the just-passed Big Ugly Tax & Kill bill would bring to Social Security beneficiaries. Most notably, the claim that El Dumpo has been crowing about repeatedly -- that it would eliminate taxes on those Social Security benefits.It's a lie. Steve Benen had a great article about it the other day at MaddowBlog. But there are many others out there echoing similar sentiment. The email makes other claims too that are, at the very least, confusing.To h...

Episode 2160: Steve Benen on how the Republicans have become the Orwellian Party of Big Brother
In Nineteen Eighty-Four, which he wrote in 1948,George Orwell imagined the “Ministry of Truth” to be the central institution that Big Brother used to reinvent reality and make war on the recent past. Three quarters of a century later, Steve Benen, the Emmy award winning producer of the Rachel Maddow Show, revisits Nineteen Eighty-Four and sees the Republican party as a reincarnation of Orwell’s Ministry of Truth. In his eponymous new book, Benen argues that the raison d’etre of today’s GOP is to wage war on both reality and the recent past. Ontologically and historically, then, today’s Re...

Trump’s Fox News Allies Suddenly Erupt in Panic as MAGA Lies Fail Him
In recent days, Fox News personalities have begun urging Donald Trump to get more “disciplined.” Many seem to fear Trump is in trouble, as evidence mounts that his sleazy, racist attacks on Kamala Harris are backfiring. Yet Trump’s Fox allies aren’t telling him to stop smearing Harris with falsehoods; they’re just telling him to adopt a more civil tone in doing so.

No, not the kind that improves quality of life - just more lanes and pay-to-cruise express lanes.

Rerun time! Author and Rachel Maddow show producer Steve Benen talks politics, Deep Space Nine, and Firefly
From the vault - and with very poor sound quality - Jim and I are taking a break and reposting the conversation former host Liane Allen and I had with Emmy-winning producer Steve Benen joins about his book The Impostors: How Republicans Quit Governing and Seized American Politics, living with a post-policy Republican Party, and blogging.

Bonnie and Clyde – trendsättande gangsterromantik
I veckans Stil ska vi ägna oss åt trendsättande gangsterromantik genom att ta en titt på en banbrytande film som kallats för den första moderna amerikanska filmen Bonnie and Clyde. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. Bonnie and Clyde är filmen där Faye Dunaway och Warren Beatty spelar ett verklighetsbaserat par, med samma namn, som rånade banker och butiker under 1930-talets depression i USA – tills de gick döden till mötes i ett kulregn från polisen, som låg i bakhåll för bilen de färdades i.
