Posting Through It

Midterm elections are approaching and early polling shows it's poised to be a bloodbath for the MAGA movement. But Americans may be in for a wild November, thanks to a crew of brain-rotted election denialists now working inside the US government. (One of them happens to be the president.) Hunter Walker , an investigative reporter at Talking Points Memo, has been following the MAGA movement's effor...

The Jeffrey Epstein story will never die. Jared and Mike report back on the many scandals embedded in the latest drop, while paying acute attention to Epstein’s relationship to MAGA and the radical right. (Unlike Nick Fuentes, our podcast is not selling Jeffrey Epstein branded quarter-zips.) The hosts move on to talk about TPUSA’s alternative Super Bowl halftime show, which features a few names yo...

Jared and Mike speak with seasoned national security reporter  Ken Klippenstein  about the expansion of national surveillance programs targeting anti-ICE activists and community organizers, alongside others they consider threats to the MAGA political agenda.

Minneapolis has changed America in ways we can’t even process yet, but in the short term it has sent the MAGA movement into a spiral of lying, propagandizing, and coping—the likes of which we haven’t quite seen before.  Jared and Mike dip into some grim polling numbers for Trump and ICE before pivoting to the shit they’re currently selling: Antifa boogeymen, entirely nonexistent paid protesters, a...

Jared and Mike welcome media columnist and reporter  Justin Baragona . They discuss the latest execution by ICE agents in Minneapolis and initial reactions from MAGA media before turning their focus to what's been going on at CBS News under the direction of its new ideologically driven leader: Bari Weiss.  Since the network's owners hired Weiss to be its editor in chief in October 2025, she's been...

[Black metal voice]  KRRRRRRAAAAAAAHHHHH!!! It’s time for something cringe! No, it’s not wearing corpse paint. It’s far worse: Nick Fuentes, the Tate Brothers, Clavicular, Sneako, the ever insufferable Myron Gaines and a list of random orbiters infested a Miami Beach club to bang Ye’s pro-Hitler rap anthem. Jared and Mike talk about that bullshit, alongside Fuentes' alleged monster deal to haw...

No story has defined 2026 quite like the federal invasion of Minneapolis, which grows more alarming by the day. Fears are mounting that Trump will invoke the Insurrection Act and deploy 1,500 US Army troops from Alaska, who are specialized in cold weather operations, and make a scary situation even scarier. The hosts trace the cascading fallout from an ICE officer fatally shooting Renee Good, from...

They're joined by  Kat Tenbarge , an independent journalist who covers tech.

It hasn’t been a pleasant start to the year. Jared and Mike scramble the jets to accommodate the horror in Minneapolis, coming to terms with the culture that makes opponents of MAGA expendable in the eyes of the regime and its propagandists.

Jared and Mike wish you all a Happy J6, as we... uh... "celebrate" the fifth anniversary of the US Capitol Riot. They're joined by award-winning British journalist  James Ball  to reflect on what's happened to the field of "anti-disinformation" research and journalism.

A  Posting Through It  listener shares a dispatch from the scene of… what I g...

With over four decades in show business, you might think that Bill Maher needs no introduction. But  Posting Through It covers MAGA and the far right, and if you have perused politics-heavy corners of social media lately, you know that Maher has emerged as one of the most polarizing commentators of Trump’s second term.  No longer beloved by liberals, Maher has hosted a bizarre rotation of MAGA fri...

Jared is in New York. Mike is in West Virginia. But no matter where you are in America, it’s easy to see that Trump and his MAGA movement are heading for some really, really, really dark shit.  Following the gruesome murder of Rob Reiner, Trump decided to mock the director’s death and insinuate that his liberal politics caused it. The hosts frame Trump’s words in the context of a movement that has...

At the end, the hosts share their favorite music from 2025. Links for Swin: Re...

Jared and Mike start the episode by glazing Kash Patel, the objectively cool head of the FBI. Our wonderful boy has thrown racks of taxpayer KA$H on hockey games, hunting, golfing –you name it – all to impress his much younger, country singing QAnon girlfriend. (Trump, if you’re listening, please don’t fire him!) Then they take a look at Ian Miles Cheong and his epic crash-out. All the Trump guys...

Jared and Mike sit down for a rare same-room recording session to unpack the awkward and unpleasant year that was 2025 and review the glimmers of hope sprinkled along the way.

Our appetizer this holiday is a dive into the latest "Red Scare" discourse after Dasha WhatsHerFace reflects on her recent wave of online backlash. Then we dust off the Olivia Nuzzi pop track “Jailbait” (yes, it exists) and admit it’s more fun than  American Canto . For the main course, we look at the stranger corners of RFK Jr. gossip, courtesy of Ryan Lizza. For dessert, our pumpkin pi...
