Kristi Noem grifted too hard (and paid the price).
What is Trump’s end game in Iran — and does he even have one?
Plus — Kristi Noem out at DHS, an abysmal jobs report, and the Texas primaries.
@rbreich.bsky.social & @wkamaubell.bsky.social break it all down.
Another forever war in the Middle East.
Kristi Noem’s Mount Rushmore sized corruption.
An abysmal jobs report.
Special guest @wkamaubell and I discuss the week that was (and more!) on a new Coffee Klatch. Join us.

Trump and Republicans are spreading lies about SNAP in order to justify cutting the vital food assistance program.
Why? So they can give bigger tax breaks to the rich and continue to boost military spending.
Here’s what you should know.
Donald Trump is Prince Andrew dressed up as President of the United States.
Why can't this country hold him accountable?
What comes after Trump’s tariffs?
What will Prince Andrew’s arrest mean for the American elite?
Are we about to get into another war in the Middle East?
And what do young voters think about all of this?
There's much to discuss on this week's Coffee Klatch.
2025 was a great year for the corporate elite.
For the rest of us? Not so much.
Without corporate collaborators, ICE could not carry out violent raids, operate sprawling detention centers, or deport people at scale.
These corporations are enabling violence on the streets and death behind barbed wire.
It’s time to boycott them. Watch.
Jesse Jackson was a champion for civil rights, economic justice, and world peace.
I have always remembered his moving call for moral clarity at the 1988 DNC.
Will the Epstein fallout splinter MAGA?
Has ICE gone too far for most Americans?
Can Trump really "nationalize" state elections?
@rbreich.bsky.social and Heather Lofthouse discuss it all on this week's pre-Super Bowl Coffee Klatch.

Will Trump really invoke the Insurrection Act?
Is he serious about capping credit card interest rates?
Is progressive economic populism the antidote to fascism?
@rbreich.bsky.social & Heather Lofthouse break it all down in this week’s Coffee Klatch, with special guest Lina Khan!
NEW: Nearly half of Americans say the cost of living is the worst they can ever remember it being, including 37% of Trump voters.
To address the affordability crisis and win the 2026 midterms, Democrats must fight for these 10 policies.
America's so-called "leadership class" has sold us out to Trump in order to pad its own pockets.
The Trump-Republican “Big Beautiful Bill” is actually a Big Ugly Nightmare.
Much of what’s included in it will begin in 2026.
Here’s what you should know.

Welcoming another brutal autocrat to the White House.
Calling for Democratic lawmakers to be executed.
Lashing out at the press over the Epstein files.
Was this Donald Trump’s most unhinged week yet?
Democrats' shutdown cave.
More progressive election wins.

@rbreich.bsky.social and Heather Lofthouse break down this news-stuffed week on today's Coffee Klatch.
AI is already driving up your electric bill.
It could soon control every aspect of your life — and put you out of a job.
We must put up guardrails before it's too late.
And he just stands there...
