Next Up with Mark Halperin

The "Blue Bubble Wrap" Blinding Dominant Media from Truth, Plus Harmeet Dhillon on Remaking the DOJ

12 Aug 2025

Description

Mark kicks off today’s show with a new reported monologue on the shakeup at The Washington Post. He reviews the record of the paper’s most notorious anti-Trump propagandists masquerading as news reporters and explains why their recent departures have yet to boost credibility or alter its biased reporting. Mark explains that Donald Trump is not the main cause of the Dominant Media’s troubles, and why his leaving office at the end of his term won’t be the change that restores public faith in the press. Plus, an update on the overwhelming reaction to Mark’s buzzy sit-down with former Post fact checker Glenn Kessler.Then, Steve Krakauer and Drew Holden join the show to discuss how the media lost credibility over many years and why employing far-left media critics like Brian Stelter has only helped networks alienate half the country. The three offer their thoughts on how to rebuild faith in once-trusted legacy media institutions — or whether or not they can be fixed at all.Finally, Mark’s interview with Harmeet Dhillon, head of the Civil Rights Division in the Trump administration Department of Justice. She explains how she is working to remake the DOJ in Trump 2.0 and redefine the term “civil rights,” using a race-blind, discrimination-free approach to law enforcement. They discuss the most consequential cases the division is handling, and the real-world impact of Title IX, gerrymandering, and free speech.Birch Gold: Text NEXT to 989898 and get your free info kit on goldAmerican Financing: Call American Financing today to find out how customers are saving an avg of $800/mo. 866-886-2026 or visit https://www.AmericanFinancing.net/Next - NMLS 182334, https://nmlsconsumeraccess.org
