    Trump and dirty money – Make America Grift Again!
    Jan 26 2026
    Donald Trump loves to bend the law and make money. So we’re looking at how he’s been doing both with legal scholar Jennifer Taub, author of Big Dirty Money, who’s a major expert in white collar crime (tracking it, not committing it that is…).

  • The Dumb Bro doctrine – Why Trump’s foreign policy doesn't make sense

    The Dumb Bro doctrine – Why Trump’s foreign policy doesn't make sense
    Jan 19 2026
    Donald Trump’s foreign policy has been described as the ‘Donroe doctrine’ – but it’s a stretch to say it’s that cohesive. To discuss how damaging he is to the world right now, as he puts American security and everyone else’s at risk, Nikki and Jarv are joined by Brian Finucane, senior adviser at International Crisis Group and editor at Just Security.
