1:02:34Now PlayingToday on Mea Culpa, I’m joined by Leigh McGowan, also known as PoliticsGirl. Leigh launched her platform to make politics accessible and inspire civic engagement. She gained popularity with her no-nonsense, kitchen-table rants, breaking down complex political issues in a digestible way. Now, she is a widely recognized political commentator, activist, and host of The PoliticsGirl Podcast. On today’s episode, we dive into Trump’s latest power grabs, including his administration’s dismantling of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, federal buyouts, and reckless economic policies like imposing damaging tariffs. Leigh explains how Trump and his allies are systematically undermining democratic institutions, replacing career civil servants with loyalists, and using shock tactics to overwhelm public resistance.
