THE OFFICIAL MEA CULPA WITH MICHAEL COHEN ARCHIVE

With the GOP desperately trying to walk back it's pro Putin nonsense, Donald Trump continues to talk up his friendship with the madman dictator. Michael deconstructs the now infamous Sean Hannity interview where the Fox News blowhard desperately tried to get Trump to say Putin was evil. Later CNN host Michael Smerconish joins Mea Culpa to examine the political fallout.

Inside the Jan 6th committee's case against Donald Trump and lawyer John Eastman. Michael D'Antonio takes us inside the former President's mind. 

A special look at President Biden's first State of the Union Address. Plus, America's two demon hecklers, Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert try to sabotage Biden's speech but wind up repulsing the nation. Dems plan to target the duo in the run up to the midterms and highlight the GOPs growing disarray. Latter Bakari Sellers joins Mea Culpa to grade the Biden Administration.

This could be what finally brings him to ruin. Talking Feds host Harry Litman joins to help Michael translate what it all means.

Mea Culpa takes an inside look at alleged violent insurrectionist Ryan Nichols who has been detained for over a year pending trial. It's a chilling portrait of a man prepared to kill for Donald Trump's lies. Later, Michael welcomes back Frank Figliuzzi to discuss the larger threat assessment from right wing extremists and who's likely to talk amongst Trump's inner circle.
