Description

Today on Mea Culpa, I’m joined by my friend Maria Cardona, Democratic strategist, CNN commentator, Principal at the Dewey Square Group, and founder of Latinovations, for a deep dive into Trump’s mounting influence and the chaos reshaping Washington. We unpack what Trump’s erratic foreign policy means for global stability and his self-congratulatory rhetoric surrounding the Israel-Gaza ceasefire. We also focus on America’s own unrest, from ICE crackdowns and National Guard deployments in our cities to the weaponization of the justice department through indictments of Trump’s political enemies. Together, we expose how Trump’s tactics mirror authoritarian playbooks and explore how Democrats can unify their message ahead of the midterm elections.
