Lock Your Windows, Nuclear Testing Starts Tomorrow + A Conversation with Michael Steele
About this episode
Today on Mea Culpa, I’m joined by Michael Steele, former RNC Chair, MSNBC analyst, and host of The Michael Steele Podcast, for a blistering breakdown of Trump’s latest authoritarian moves. We dig into his push to end the Senate filibuster, the demolition of the White House’s East Wing to build his ballroom, and the GOP’s complicity in his escalating power grab. Steele explains how the Supreme Court has become a political enforcement arm under Trump’s shadow and how his own party has lost its moral compass. From the potential rollback of marriage equality to the normalization of authoritarian control, this episode sounds the alarm on the collapse of Republican restraint and the rise of a Trump America.
