Summary

Today on Mea Culpa, I welcome back Joe Trippi, veteran Democratic strategist, senior advisor at The Lincoln Project, host of That Trippi Show podcast, and founder of Sez, a pro-democracy social network. We break down Trump’s chaotic first weeks back in office, including his bizarre claim that the U.S. should 'own' Gaza, his mass federal employee buyouts, and his economic policies that could destabilize the economy. We also discuss how Democrats can effectively push back against Trump’s agenda and the critical role of special elections in countering his grip on power.
