Today on Mea Culpa, I’m joined by Nick Akerman, former federal prosecutor, Assistant Special Watergate Prosecutor, and Assistant United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York. We examine how Trump’s rhetoric and actions verge on aiding and abetting Vladimir Putin while he continues to sell false promises to his voters. We also discuss the aggressive gerrymandering and redistricting battles across the country, along with the GOP’s reckless response to gun violence. In the wake of mass firings at the CDC and subsequent resignations, combined with Trump’s attacks on the Federal Reserve and specifically Lisa Cook, we break down how Trump is weaponizing and politicizing government institutions to consolidate power.

How much longer is this⤠country going to put up with this SH?
Putin has drones attacking Poland,Romania and Ukraine. Trump wanted to pull the US out of NATO. Trump had made a ceasefire with Putin over Ukraine. The same night, Putin bombed Ukraine and hit a hospital and an energy station. There will never be a ceasefire under Putin. Trump is Putin's puppet. Are we facing a world war and wgich sude will Trump wanr to be on?
No not diverted no success…. The man is mad…
Yeah, we have heard this before.

USA GOVT. IS EMBARASSING! THERE IS MORE AGRAVATION AND CONFUSION BECAUSE OF THIS GOVT. SYSTEM…🤬🤬🤬
Trump I notice when in Putin present is subservient to him! I do now believe what I read months ago Trump when he said he was going to Russia in 80’s trying to build a hotel! Don’t know why it wasn’t investigated this Russian Agent stated his name and everything stating when was going to Russia in the 80’s he was a Russian Agent! Even gave the Russian name Trump used! First it was posted on Facebook! I do think this is one reason Trump doesn’t crack down on Putin because this is hanging over his head! Why is Congress not investigating all these things! Also the Jeffery Epstein Files which Congress does nothing! Also that Supreme Court who does nothing! Congress and the Supreme Court are a total Liability on the American people where their rights are concerned!
Team this ai music in background is terrible. So many fake channels use thi

Com on you are leaders

Hey, Micheal…..I know you have to know a lot more about what & who are in the Epstein files, you were his lawyer and “fix it guy†when that whole thing was first exposed. You know the full files is full of Democrats , Republicans, high ranking dignitaries, corporate executives and other entertainment personalities, releasing that information will be opening a Big Can of Worms with very damaging repercussions.
ðŸ‘💪💙💙💙
Putin pulls Trumps strings , why can’t you yanks see this????
Time to get the evangelical team out to lay hands on trump , to pray , to speak in tongues, to pray over, to hold up the Bible . Your christian boy is going down . Praise the Lawd.
If he is breaking the constitutional laws, Trump and the Supreme Justices should be held accountable NOW
As a simple minded russian asset…..i think his facist moves aginst american citizens is an attempt to impress Vlad the Impaler
Guys this is how I see it he asked putin to get him into the White House & he in return would get him unto the world stage & together they can cover up the Epstein files I’m sure both of them are in them shocking lies UKRAINE HANG ON IN THERE YOU ARE LOVED ACCROSS THE WORLD SLAVA UKRAINE 🇺🇦
I'm sure that CDC director was unwilling to lie. A person serious about science and finding cures and medical miracles is not going to bow down to this administration. It's nonsensical to expect people to believe conspiracy and here-say over actual proven science and effective vax. This is a serious threat to the health of the world and their willingness to risk a worldwide pandemic of something far more deadly than COVID says a lot to me. I'm sure they expect the poor people (of every race) to die out. No one will have access to vax or be able to afford them but them. You can be sure about that! Then they can swoop in and take resources, bulldoze whole cities and and build lavish houses for the rich in those areas. Whomever is left will basically be government workers forced into hard labor to produce food, clothing and supplies, but never owning anything. People will live in substandard government built housing because they all lost their homes and jobs because they couldn't afford a house in the first place. On another note. Yes, TARIFFS ARE TAXES ON IMPORTED GOODS (incoming goods)! TAXES ON EXPORTS (outgoing goods) WERE DEEMED ILLEGAL IN THE EARLY 1800s.
Dam yall legit have gambling sponsorships? That’s terrible
Hoping to see white house for lodging purposes.
With Biden, Ukraine on the upper hand. What is the situation with the present Ukraine ? Completely on reversal.
Democrats applied on several occasions for impeachment. What did the senators of republican respond ？
Republican senators should bear all responsibility for not supervising and allowing him with continuously growing powers to do whatever he desired.
Are the Republicans who keep Trump in office crooked, malevolent evil mafia gangsters and Dascists or just plain STOOPID?
Beware the facts that the 2 houses are dominated by republicans.
You committed the same mistake of putting blames on others. Why not it be done by republican ?
He is insane
Oh its bad enough😢😮
Thankyou for going full Michael 💓 💖 still crackingthe trumpâ¤ðŸŽ‰
