Summary

Today on Mea Culpa, I’m joined by fellow MeidasTouch host Adam Mockler for a cross-generational conversation on power, corruption, and truth. Mockler is a Gen Z political commentator with over one million subscribers on YouTube, known for his sharp analysis, fearless critiques of authoritarianism, and ability to connect complex issues to a younger audience. We dive into the continued secrecy around the Epstein files, what their cover-up reveals about who really pulls the strings, and how Trump’s broken promises on transparency are eroding even his own base. Mockler shares how Gen Z views this scandal, demanding accountability while growing increasingly disillusioned with institutions that protect the powerful. We also tackle Trump’s authoritarian wins, the costs of mass deportations, the weaponization of the courts, and why misinformation and culture wars are threatening social cohesion.
