1:10:48Now PlayingMark Halperin opens with his latest reported monologue on Charlie Kirk’s assassination and the ongoing distorted coverage surrounding it. He reveals how the Dominant Media, aligned with Democratic leaders, downplays the significance of Kirk’s life and murder — and how it is echoing their role in obscuring Joe Biden’s decline. Mark explains how this “conspiracy of camaraderie” further erodes public trust in legacy outlets, deepens polarization, and signals that political violence is too often judged by partisan affiliation. Democrats’ reluctance to empathize with those mourning Kirk, he argues, reinforces the perception that ideology determines which tragedies matter.
Meghan McCain and Ben Ferguson join to discuss America’s reckoning with Kirk’s murder, Erica Kirk’s extraordinary grace, and their own experiences with political threats tied to their Republican affiliations. They also unpack the start of Kamala Harris’s awkward book tour — marked by slights toward prominent Democrats, shifting blame for her 2024 defeat, and interviews that contradict her own account in “107 Days.” Finally, they examine how Harris’s fractured narrative about Joe Biden stands in sharp contrast to the loyalty and unity projected by Donald Trump and JD Vance.
