Weekly Roundup: How Protest Became Terrorism in Trump's America (Bradley Onishi and Daniel Miller; Straight White American Jesus podcast)
This week, Brad Onishi argues that a series of seemingly separate headlines point to a single political project: the construction of a white Christian homeland.
He examines the unprecedented sentencing of the Prairie Land protesters under domestic terrorism charges, the Trump administration's growing use of "Antifa" as a catch-all label for political dissent, Supreme Court decisions affecting Temporary Protected Status, and the continued targeting of Haitian immigrants.
Together, Brad argues, these developments reflect an effort to criminalize protest, narrow who belongs in America, and reshape citizenship around the ideals of white Christian nationalism.
Brad also breaks down new efforts to restrict voting through the SAVE Act, analyzes the rhetoric of figures like Stephen Miller, Megyn Kelly, and Rep. Tom Emmer, and reflects on what Zohran Mamdani's growing political influence reveals about the future of the Democratic Party.

Joe on SHOCKING NYT report: Trump admin. debated Habeas Corpus, invoking insurrection act
Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan of The New York Times have new reporting on the debates inside the White House last year over suspending habeas corpus for undocumented immigrants. Suspending habeas corpus was one of two radical ideas Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller had been pushing, the other was invoking the Insurrection Act to deploy the military to enforce the law on American streets as protests grew against deportation sweeps. According to the Times, Vice President JD Vance said the administration needed to invoke the Insurrection Act, swiftly, to crush the unrest in Minnesota. The Morning Joe panel breaks down the shocking details of the New York Times reporting.

We like to win (Find Out Podcast on YouTube)
We here on the Find Out Podcast are a big fans of Democrats winning elections and we couldn't be happier with this week's news that Attorney General Ken Paxton (R-TX), who was endorsed by Trump, won his runoff election, unseating the incumbent U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) as the Republican nominee. Why are we excited about this? Because Paxton, who has been impeached by the Republican Super Majority in the Texas state legislature for embezzlement, busted for an extramarital affair and is generally hated by Cornyn voters and his fellow Texas Republicans, this creates an excellent opportunity for State Rep. James Talarico (D-TX) to finally flip Texas Blue. The last time Texas Democrats came close to flipping this seat was in 2018 when U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) narrowly defeated Rep. Beto O'Rourke (D-TX) by 2.6%. On this episode, we'll make the case for why someone like Paxton is worse than Cruz. Talarico's ability to communicate effectively with religious Christian voters, coupled with Hispanic and Latino voters turning on Trump in large numbers, makes this a must watch race that could help the Democrats win the U.S. Senate this year.
We'll also discuss why conviction is the best weapon for Democrats to counter Republican messaging when pitching massive changes like universal health care. We also enjoyed watching Chelsea Handler and Pete Davidson destroy Tony Hinchcliffe at the Netflix Roast of Kevin Hart. We also crack down on corporations using investments in AI data centers to justify mass layoffs but those investments haven't been paying off. Also, we'll highlight how the tech billionaires like Marc Andreessen, Peter Thiel and Elon Musk want cheaper workers while J.D. Vance and Stephen Miller want more white workers.

Pam Bondi’s in trouble with Republicans on Capitol Hill - POLITICO
In a news conference Thursday, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said Bondi and White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller — an architect of the Trump administration's aggressive immigration enforcement agenda — have "got to go."
"We're going to approach those two toxic individuals with the same intensity that has now led to the termination of Kristi Noem," Jeffries added…

Republican tax writer rips IRS CEO as unprepared for hearing - Live Updates - POLITICO
"You really need to come in here and answer the questions that these members ask you directly, and saying 'I'll come see you in your office,' even to me, on very basic questions that I'm asking you, is really upsetting," Miller said. "I am very embarrassed right now for my side."
Miller's comments came during Bisignano's first showing before the panel since the administration created the CEO position for him at the agency last fall, a move that allowed him to sidestep the usual Senate confirmation process. Unlike other IRS leaders, Bisignano does not have a tax background, and he is currently also serving as head of the Social Security Administration...

Tennessee to test Stephen Miller’s plan of enlisting states for immigration enforcement
The power to enforce immigration law rests with the federal government. But Trump adviser, Stephen Miller, has a vision for states working in coordination with federal immigration officials, and he's attempting to test it out in Tennessee.
Earlier this month, the Knoxville News Sentinel reported that Miller had been meeting in Washington DC with Tennessee speaker of the house, Cameron Sexton, to craft model legislation for states around the country...

Norm Ornstein on ICE Terrorizing Minnesota (Al Franken podcast on YouTube)
After another horrifying murder and ICE’s continued unwelcome presence in Minnesota, Al is joined by friend of the show, political scientist, and emeritus scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, Norm Ornstein, to discuss what is happening in their home state.
After widespread reports of American citizens being detained, ICE using children as "bait," and the murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti, the Trump administration seems open to drawing back the ICE presence in Minnesota. Al and Norm discuss what a possible deal could look like to get them out of the state. Will Stephen Miller and Kristi Noem face any consequences for their lies and aggression?
After spending time meeting with organizers in the Twin Cities, Al shares what he learned from constitutional observers and others making their community safer and caring for each other. We also discuss the danger of the federal government getting its hands on state voter rolls. Was Trump's invasion ever about enforcing immigration laws? Or was it more about retribution?
