In the aftermath of the 2024 election, America is even more divided than before.

Half the country fears the end of democracy and the other half welcomes it.

As America inches toward the brink of authoritarian rule, now more than ever, we must force

ourselves to have the necessary conversation.

Welcome to the necessary conversation.

I'm Chad Colchin with me as my fellow lefty sister, Haley Pope.

And today, only my mom here to support the Orange One's Colt.

Our dad has failed to join us for reasons unknown.

But your dad said he would do Wednesday. So maybe just you and him, Wednesday can do it out.

Okay. I'm down for that. If he really is going to do it, I feel like he'll bail again.

I don't know. I think you will. All right. We'll see. We have a pretty big show today. A lot has

happened. It is post-Christmas. We are still in the holiday season ramping up to New Year's Eve.

I hope everybody out there is having a good holiday. Today we're going to be talking about Trump's

Christmas meltdown posting 150 posts

in 24 hours. There's a million new Epstein files. Trump is just accepting open payment for pardons now.

The 60 Minutes segment on Seacot that got scrapped but then got leaked. No National Guard in Chicago.

And Trump is defending a supporter of uh human trafficking
