Bongino, Bondi, & Patel: MAGA's New Pariahs May 28, 2025

Show notes

"These people thought Epstein was the Rosetta Stone for the globalist elite cannibal pedophile ring—but the truth hits too close to home."

Pam Bondi, Dan Bongino, and Kash Patel are the Three Stooges of the Pizza-Gate-Qanon-Apocalypse. They've been pretty constant figures in and around the Enemies List. But, recently, they've become pariahs not just among those of us on the pro-Democracy side, but within MAGA ranks as well—largely because of their involvement in obscuring the contents of the Jeffrey Epstein files.

Once the loudest human blowhorns spreading conspiracy theories about elite pedophile rings, they now appear to be actively protecting the very circles they once claimed to expose. Their sudden pivot, particularly in light of Donald Trump’s deep and well-documented ties to Epstein, has fueled backlash from the same extremist audiences they once courted. You won't believe it, but they are, in fact, hypocrites. But that hypocrisy is grim, as it's meant to protect Trump from being implicated in one of the darkest scandals of the last twenty years.

Mike Johnson: 40 Million Americans in the Crosshairs May 21, 2025

Show notes

Mike Johnson’s push to gut Medicare and Medicaid isn’t just a budgetary decision—it’s a declaration of priorities. You, my friend, are not on the priority list. Stripping health care from tens of millions to fund tax breaks for a shrinking circle of billionaires lays bare a political ideology rooted in cruelty and indifference. It’s a familiar trade: short-term power for long-term damage, justified by performative piety and cloaked in procedural gamesmanship. Mike Johnson is the reigning Enemy on the Enemies List because his ploy is so cynical, so callous, and so catastrophic to our way of life that it can only be described as evil.

This episode is a double-decker! Rick takes your questions in the back half on everything from Elon Musk’s public implosion and Trump’s ongoing submission to Putin.

Mike Johnson: A Special Kind of Evil May 19, 2025

Show notes

House Speaker Mike Johnson is looking to blow a $4 trillion hole in the deficit, cut back on Medicare and Medicaid, and dole out billions in tax breaks to a handful of ultra-rich Americans. He’s an easy target, but that doesn’t mean we should let him off the hook. The chaos within the ranks belies a bitter truth: this budget, if enacted, would be a moral and economic calamity. It would reshape our society in ways that are hard to imagine. And Mike Johnson is the kind of guy who probably knows, but doesn’t care. He might be a mumbly little nerd, but he’s earned his spot on the Enemies List.

All Bets Are Off: Enemies List Q&A May 14, 2025

Show notes

"All bets are off if they start snatching judges."

Judges are being threatened, civic institutions are under assault, and authoritarian tactics are becoming normalized. The right’s strategy is relentless: show up, take over, and silence dissent. Meanwhile, apathy and disengagement from the left have created a vacuum that fascists are more than willing to fill. Fighting back won’t come from Washington—it starts with showing up at the most local levels and refusing to cede ground.

The time is now, people. You are the heroes of this story...if you show up.

Rick takes your questions on everything from Little Marco, the new Pope, the backslide of American Democracy, and the non-doctor, non-expert Trump wants for Surgeon General.

The Normies Did This May 12, 2025

Show notes

The Normies—the wealthy, connected conservatives who always knew better—saw exactly what Trump was and supported him anyway. Obsessed with tax cuts and terrified of Kamala Harris, they cloaked their fears in talk of markets and freedom while enabling chaos, cruelty, and economic sabotage. Their silence wasn’t ignorance—it was complicity. While Trump’s base waved flags and spread conspiracies, the Normies offered respectability to a movement they knew was dangerous. Now, with recession looming, civil norms unraveling, and the moral cost mounting, the truth is unavoidable: they made this happen. They gambled with democracy to protect their comfort, and the bill is coming due.

Steven Miller: Purveyor of Poison May 05, 2025

Show notes

Steven Miller is a well-known weirdo, anti-immigration ideologue, and is quickly becoming one of the most dangerous men to walk the Earth. For years, he's lurked in the shadows, hovering over Trump, stoking his worst impulses. But he's having a bit of a coming-out-party, as he's poised to become the National Security Advisor.

He's in line for this position not because he's qualified, mind you - he's dramatically unqualified - but because of his preternatural, deep-seated feelings of hatred for non-white, non-male Americans.

This 2nd term is already catastrophic. But Steven Miller will bring us into a darkness Americans aren't prepared for.

Buckle up.

Pam Bondi: A Dull Blade Cuts Dirty Apr 30, 2025

Show notes

Pam Bondi fits a certain MAGA mold. She's blonde. She's attractive. She's blindly obedient to Trump. And she's, well, not smart. Instead of making her someone to disregard as just another make-up-slathered clown, it makes her one of the most dangerous figures on the Enemies List.

This is a rebroadcast. Make sure to catch up on all the episodes you missed. The Enemies List isn't getting any shorter, folks...

Pete Hegseth: DUI Over DEI at the Pentagon Apr 23, 2025

Show notes

Pete Hegseth went from being a tatted-up, Fox News weekend host with a frat-boy persona to being Secretary of Defense. It's going as well as any rational person might have expected. That is to say, according to insiders, reporting, and our own eyes and ears, it’s a disaster. His time at the Pentagon has been marked by leaked classified information, paranoia-driven purges of senior staff, and an obsession with dismantling diversity programs, even if it means erasing sacred military history. Hegseth, who has a history of alleged abuse and heavy drinking, threatens to lead the greatest military the world has ever seen over a cliff. Even MAGA allies and Republican officials can see the edge quickly approaching and are now scrambling to distance themselves from the fallout. But here's the thing: Trump is stuck with him. Find out why in this episode of the Enemies List.
