    James and Al attack the cruelty of Trump’s immigration policy and his administration’s growing authoritarianism before welcoming Admiral James Stavridis. They discuss the foreign policy challenge posed by China’s Belt and Road Initiative, the future of warfare as we move away from human armies toward robots and drones, and why aircraft carriers are essential and timeless in a world with threats in multiple theaters of action. Then, they explore leadership lessons from history and culture, spanning Mario Puzo’s The Godfather to direct written experiences from soldiers in the Civil War.

    James and Al celebrate Susan Crawford’s election to the WI Supreme Court, expose Trump’s declining electoral prospects, and declare the start of a Democrat comeback.

Ultimately, what does a future-focused party look like, who should lead it, and can the democrats balance attacks on Trump with a vision for our lives after he exits the political scene?

    302: Attack Attack, Deny Deny, Lie Lie with Rep. Ritchie Torres

    Watch Politics War Room & James Carville Explains on YouTube @PoliticsWarRoomOfficial

    James and Al lay waste to Trump’s inept national security team in the wake of their accidental leak of war plans for Yemen and call out the billionaires undermining the 4th Estate before welcoming Congressman Ritchie Torres. They discuss putting pragmatism back into politics, avoiding the trap of emphasizing the policies of the far left, and crafting a winning message that speaks to working people. Ultimately, did focusing on faculty lounge priorities distract from addressing immigration and inflation and cost Kamala the 2024 election?
