It's Fun Day Monday on the Majority Report On today's program: Small business and large corporate bankruptcies are spiking, and Fox Business is struggling to find any way to spin the data in a positive light. Benjamin Freeman joins Sam and Emma to discuss his book he coo-authored with William Hartung, Trillion Dollar War Machine: How Runaway Military Spending Drives America Into Foreign Wars and Bankrupts Us at Home. For more work from Benjamin Freeman, check out his work at the Quincy Institute. In the Fun Half: Senator Eric Schmitt (R-MO) struggles on ABC news trying to pretend to care about "narco-terrorists" bringing in drugs into America while also defending Donald Trump pardoning a man who trafficked 400 tons of cocaine and weapons into the U.S. ICE shoots pepper balls at congresswoman Adelita Grijalva in Tucson, Arizona. Zohran Mamdani releases a video teaching people their rights when interacting with ICE. Donald Trump has cancelled National Park's offer of free entry on Juneteenth and Martin Luther King Day but don't worry he replaced them with his birthday. Sam and Emma dig into the massive in-fighting among right-wing pundits. PBD, Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, Milo Yiannopoulos, Tim Pool, Laura Loomer are all eating each other alive and we are here for it. All that and more.
