"Secretary of War" Pete Hegseth announced that he was formally censuring Senator Mark Kelly and launched administrative proceedings to consider whether to reduce his Navy rank in retirement. Steve Schmidt reacts to the absurdist announcement, and urges Democrats to not tolerate this obscenity.

There is a very significant, “exhausted majority” of Americans looking to move past this rotten moment in American life. They have lost trust and faith in government, business, media and not-for-profit institutions at a moment of technological, cultural and economic upheaval. Fascism did not rise in the 1930s because it was strong, but rather, because democracy was weak. The cycle is repeating itself with a new extremism rising in 2020s America. On the podcast – consistent with the mission of The Warning newsletter offered on Substack and The Warning YouTube channel – I will be joined by interesting guests – some familiar, and some you may never have heard of – to discuss the political and cultural currents that are shaping our times, as well as the unseen forces driving politics that are rarely discussed on cable news. It's important for you to hear from a diverse range of voices – not just me – about the issues facing America today.

Setting the Stage for John Fetterman

Fetterman's Fitness for Office

Trump's Grip on the Republican Party

The Disintegration of Political Parties

Save America's Trump Birthday Plans

John Fetterman's Stroke and Political Career

The State of the Iran War and US Foreign

Jeff Bezos and the Collapse of the American

Closing Remarks and Acknowledgments

Steve Schmidt joins "The Daily Beast Podcast" with Joanna Coles once again with a blistering warning about Donald Trump’s unraveling grip on power, the Republican Party’s “Shakespearean” collapse into cowardice, and why he believes MAGA is heading toward a political wipeout. In a conversation that ricochets from the Epstein files to the future of American democracy, Schmidt tears into GOP leaders he says have “lashed themselves to the mast,” predicts a brutal reckoning in 2028, and unleashes a stunning critique of John Fetterman, calling the Pennsylvania senator unfit for office after his stroke and accusing Fox News of psychologically manipulating him in public. Schmidt also paints a deeply alarming picture of America’s standing abroad, arguing the U.S. is already losing a hidden war with Iran while Trump drifts toward another dangerous foreign adventure in Cuba, all as gas prices soar and public frustration boils over. Schmidt then turns his fire on Jeff Bezos and the billionaire class he says chose submission over resistance, framing this political era not just as a fight over power, but as a historic test of national character that future generations will study with disbelief.
