Hey folks,
Jack Cocchiarella and I are back, and Donald Trump Jr. is having one hell of a closing stretch before Election Day.
Between his bizarre campaign appearances, new questions about his investment firm’s explosive growth, and Democrats preparing to investigate Trump-world corruption, there’s a lot to unpack. And we get into the bigger question that matters tomorrow: If Democrats win, are they actually going to hold these people accountable?
[00:06:45] We react to Don Jr.’s increasingly bizarre campaign appearances before turning to reports that Democrats want answers about the explosive growth of his investment firm, 1789 Capital.
[00:09:03] I lay out my priorities for congressional investigations, including Pete Hegseth, Jared Kushner, and Trump family business dealings, and explain why corruption needs to be at the center of everything Democrats do next.
[00:12:10] Don Jr. delivers a truly ridiculous closing argument, complete with anti-trans fear-mongering and a baffling comment about Democrats wanting to make Ohio a state. Yes, Ohio.
[00:16:04] We get serious about the national security implications of potential conflicts of interest, Pentagon contractors, and the people Trump has placed in positions of extraordinary power.
[00:20:18] Jack and I make the case for independent media, challenge Democrats who refuse to confront their own party’s problems, and explain why Election Day is just the beginning of the accountability fight.
This one is funny, chaotic, and pretty damn serious underneath it all. We talk Donald Trump Jr., 1789 Capital, Jared Kushner, Pete Hegseth, government contracts, Democratic leadership, and what happens if voters hand Democrats the power to investigate this administration. Because winning an election isn’t enough. We have to use that power to expose corruption, demand answers, and make government work for ordinary people again. If you believe independent media should be asking the questions powerful people don’t want answered, help us keep building it.
