Summary

Today on Mea Culpa, I’m joined by Loren Piretra, political content creator and host of The Loren Piretra Show on YouTube, for a deep dive into Trump’s latest power grabs. We break down the millions who took to the streets this weekend for the No Kings Day protests and how Trump and JD Vance tried to distract the nation with a hollow military parade. We also unpack how farmers are getting crushed under Trump’s reckless tariffs, the ongoing government shutdown, and the National Guard federalizations that have civil rights advocates sounding the alarm.
