We all live in an incredible country, and it is on us to preserve it by using a bottom-up power from the people approach. Our leaders simply do not have what it takes because of their affinity for fanning the flame of division. But YOU have what it takes. WE have what it takes.

There are many questions to be answered. Who? Was this coordinated? Is there an organization involved? Why was it possible for this to happen? How will Biden, Trump, and Congress respond? As these questions are answered, we must show that this is not who we are. This is a time not to do the minimum, but to do the maximum and come together as Americans Learn more about your ad choices.

We have now all seen Biden’s presser, but we sure don’t all agree on what should happen next. Some are steadfast behind Biden, others are waning, and more and more are saying it's time for Biden to go. Ok, if that's the case, and Biden has to go, what exactly does that look like and how do we get there? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

We can discuss what today's Trump SCOTUS immunity ruling means. We can discuss what Biden's debate performance means. But what is more important is that the people of this country have legitimate issues that should be addressed by legitimately equipped leaders. It is not Trump. It is not Biden. However, if we continue to support this battle to the bottom, we the people will elect leaders who much of the country actually does not want. Learn more about your ad choices.

Many of those who are protesting exhibit a desperation to believe in something more than themselves. But they are failing themselves. Their parents have failed them. And the leaders of the Universities, particularly of Columbia, are failing them by not stepping in, and implementing leadership when these students are turning against one another. If you are not worried about how these protests could cause domestic extremism in the future, it's time to start. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

When it comes to the pro-Palestinian protests, there are questions that have to be answered. Where are the parents? Who are the people funding the protests? Why are the protesters hiding their identity behind the scarves? If you want the light, take the heat. The academic institutions having failed in leadership does not mean that we as the collective should fail in exposing the misguided protests. Learn more about your ad choices.

The truth matters in every other part of our lives except politics. Why is that? It is because politics are a repository for our worst intentions, and we must do better. Chris breaks down the obvious contrast between what we accept as normal behavior in our own lives, and how we blindly accept the antics of leadership driven by only the agenda of advantage.

As we watch Columbia University students protest and chant troubling phrases like, "we are all Hamas", it's incumbent to ask if this is helpful in any way. How does the Kennedy family endorsing Biden help? How do people that make threats towards the jury in Trump's NY trial? Do Trump's attacks on the judge and his family help? The answer to this question is what Chris sees as an integral part of us all getting to a better place. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The simple truth is while so many cannot find reason to unite, the eclipse forges through that negative energy to create cause to stand beside one another and rejoice in common place. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Cuomo makes the case that our obsession with the upcoming eclipse and today’s earthquake is indicative of our country’s self-interested desire to be part of something bigger than ourselves. But if we do aspire to be something more, should we not apply that motivation to cause those in power to say the right thing when it comes to Israel’s war with Hamas?  Should we not hold Trump to account in moments of deception like we would ourselves?  The example Chris uses to answer these questions is through his own experiences of having the former president twist Chris' words.  Learn more about your ad choices.

The hostages should not be an afterthought. Aid should always be a priority. Somehow, we must ask our leaders to speak boldly and transparently about what is really happening in the middle east. Biden may appease the left flank by offering weak talk towards Israel, but it does not get us to a better place. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The idea of Good Friday has a secular significance which Cuomo explains through the lens of our current social state. It doesn't have to be about religion to appreciate the idea of giving someone the benefit of the doubt. It CAN be about loving one another if we can see beyond our differences. On this Friday whether it is seen as a good one or not, do what you can to forgive, forget, and embrace those you would otherwise oppose. Learn more about your ad choices.

Chris takes pause to address the implications behind the looming SCOTUS ruling on limiting government contact with social media platforms using.

The conversation between Cuomo and Carlson gave the two of them some of their biggest audiences to date. What does that say? It says that more of us want to see engagement of one another, and less want to silence their opposition. Chris offers perspective on why conversations like the one he had with Carlson are the only way forward. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

We all know that division is destroying us. The weird part is that we think more distance from those who we oppose helps.

Chris offers an explanation on why he chose to have a conversation with Tucker Carlson. It's about breaking down the walls that have been built by division. It has to do with the experiences that we share, and how we connect as human beings. And more than ever, it has to do with turning towards one another and not away. Learn more about your ad choices.

Trump and Biden both visited the border with blame to cast on one another about the ongoing crisis there.
