Ruthless Podcast ·

2025/11/06

🎙️ The Progrum kicks off with a raw analysis of Tuesday's election results, dissecting the sweeping win of socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani in New York. The fellas argue that the media and national Democrats are gravely misinterpreting the result, which was not a sign of broad enthusiasm but a narrow victory powered by radical, highly-educated urbanites. We discuss the historic trouble Republicans have faced in off-year elections when Trump isn't on the ballot, noting the persistent challenge of

2025/11/04

🎙️ The fellas discuss the Democrats' concerning lack of a national message, noting their reliance on negative identity politics and edgy rhetoric exemplified by Illinois Governor JB Pritzker's new found f-bombs. A deep dive into Barack Obama’s recent appearance in Virginia highlights the former president’s selective support, so weird that he didn’t endorse what would have been the first black female governor… ever. It’s a stunning example of the Democratic Party’s rudderless leadership and the

2025/10/31

🎙️ House Democrat leadership insists there are "zero cracks" in their party's strategy, a claim that evaporates under the slightest pressure. We highlight the growing defiance from within the democrat ranks, including their largest constituency: the federal employees union, which is now openly demanding the government be reopened. When confronted with basic questions from journalists, leading Democrats like Chuck Schumer and Kamala completely fall apart. Maybe they’re just not used to getting a

End Game for Dems' Failed Shutdown?

Ruthless Podcast ·

2025/10/30

🎙️ The Schumer Shutdown has some confusing goals. The fellas dissect the nonsensical argument from Democrats like Senator Chris Coons and Sheldon Whitehouse, who repeatedly call the plight of American workers their necessary "leeeverage" to push a bailout for insurance companies. The complete lack of strategy from the Democrats over the past six months proves their cynical politics have hit a new low, a low that even the mainstream media and CNN's Harry Enten are being forced to cover with brutal

🎙️ Gavin Newsom's latest pathetic attempt to change who he is has him claiming to be a dirt-poor, hustling athlete. Spoiler alert - he did not grow up on these streets. The fellas trace the ludicrous claim from Gavin, but explain how it shows his chameleon character, once again. More busted lies from KJP and Kamala - who is claiming that Biden was fine to BE president, he was just too much of an empty skin-suit to RUN for president. ⚡ Then, Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin joins the show just a

2025/10/24

🎙️ The stunning lack of self-awareness from House Democrats’ Minority Whip Katherine Clark is amazing. Pro tip: don’t say the quiet part out loud. Huge hat tip to Speaker Johnson and his staff for a genius troll, BTW. Even CNN’s Harry Enten's data is showing that the shutdown isn’t hurting Donald Trump's approval at all, the public views this as a "Schumer shutdown." The fellas also torch Virginia gubernatorial candidate Abigail Spanberger for her entitled reaction to questions, which reveals her

2025/10/23

The fellas are reveling in the Democratic Party's absolute chaos, starting with the government shutdown. Anonymous Democratic senators confess they would vote to reopen the government but are "terrified of getting the guillotine" from the deranged grassroots—a direct admission that their base is driving the insanity.The Civil War's second front is a primary race for a chance to challenge Susan Collins in Maine, and it is a certified freak show.

2025/10/21

🎙️ The Progrum totally shreds the absurd "No Kings" rally, which proved to be little more than a cringeworthy Saturday for the country's most maladjusted boomers. There were A-list clowns in attendance, like Cory Booker and George Conway, who did not own their moments. The fellas dive deep into the funding and farce that is the No Kings protests. This wasn't some organic outpouring of democratic spirit; it was a strategically placed, expensive performance designed to achieve a very specific

How the Left Took the Democrat Party Hostage

2025/10/17

🎙️ There is an astounding disarray of intellectual dishonesty gripping the Democratic Party. We put AOC and Bernie Sanders’ CNN town hall under the microscope and it’s totally ridiculous. AOC’s attempts to artfully dodge a direct question on illegal immigrants is proof she's planning a major political move. 🫏 How about the most damning example of Democratic orthodoxy: the swift retribution against Senator John Fetterman. Fetterman, who votes with his party 96% of the time, dared to utter the

Nutty Democrats Crank the Crazy

Ruthless Podcast ·

2025/10/16

🎙️ Democrats have insane priorities right now. It’s crazy to see the disconnect with Senate Democrats, living it up at a luxurious retreat in Napa Valley at the Hotel Yountville, while the country faces budget uncertainty, and our troops' paychecks are at risk. They're spending $1100 per night to sip espresso martinis, a move that Holmes calls a slap in the face to all Americans. This retreat underscores a new era of Democratic politics where any sense of shame or accountability to the American

2025/10/14

🎙️ Eric Trump joins the Progrum to discuss peace in the Middle East and what an achievement it is for Donald Trump to get Israel and Palestine to a ceasefire and peace deal. The fellas discuss the sheer irony of the media ignoring this achievement, noting the clear difference between this universally accepted peace and past conflicts that resulted in winners and losers—a win Eric suggests should have already earned his father a Nobel Peace Prize, unlike some past recipients. Eric paints a picture

How to Test Negative for Stupid w/ Sen. Kennedy

🎙️ Fun Time Friday with the always-hilarious Senator John Kennedy, who didn't hold back on the chaos in D.C. Kennedy broke down Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer's move to shut down the government, calling it an obvious political vanity project intended to mollify the socialist wing of the Democratic Party and its leader. The fellas agree that Schumer walked into a box canyon with no plan or path to victory, and Kennedy lays out his prediction for how the Majority Leader will try to get out of

Democrats’ NEXT LEVEL Crazy

🎙️ We dive straight into the deep end of the left's current insanity, starting with Congresswoman Katie Porter's truly unhinged interview where she struggles to defend her political math and—even worse—storms off rather than answer legitimate questions. The fellas point out that this is sadly indicative of a major portion of the modern Democratic Party. Just for fun, we review some of Porter’s greatest hits.🐘 Attorney General Jason Miyares joins us for a must-listen interview. This election

Trump’s Plan to Stop the Radical Left

Ruthless Podcast ·

2025/10/07

🎙️ The democrat party's strategy is built on crisis exploitation. Every major event is used to lock in irresponsible, temporary, and unworkable socialist policies. Then, the escalating war between federal agents and anarchist protesters in cities like Portland. From an ICE agent's brilliant tactic of pepper-spraying an inflatable costume's air vent (a move clearly inspired by internet videos of people spraying fart spray into costumed characters) to federal agents carting a limp, non-compliant

Instant Chaos: Dems Immediately Regret Shutdown

Ruthless Podcast ·

2025/10/03

🎙️ Democrats' complete and utter failure to message the government shutdown isn’t surprising. What is surprising is the level of political self-clowning on display. From saying the quiet part out loud to missing their talking points, this undisciplined caucus is cracking at the seams, already. ⚡The biggest mistake Democrats made was giving the keys to the car—the entire federal government—to OMB Director Russ Vought and President Trump. The fellas celebrate how Vought and Trump are now actively

🎙️ Leave it to democrats in Congress to totally embarrass themselves on social media because of a government shutdown. We go over the most cringe moments that elected representatives are doing to try to be relevant - spoiler: none of them are working. 🫏 AOC appears to be already planning on taking Schumer’s office, Cory Booker’s unbelievable sincerity and democrats ‘searching’ for the Republicans in Congress, the coverage of this shutdown has been totally bonkers.

🎙️ Chuck Schumer's total inability to rein in the far-left is why we’re here. Democrats are now a collection of lunatics willing to throw the entire federal government into chaos. The fellas explain how the left is making completely unreasonable demands and why democrats are the ones creating a "grave emergency." This is what happens when you pander to your base instead of governing.💥 The Progrum reviews some of the best audio from Chris Murphy and Eric Swalwell, who say the quiet part out

Why the Left is Collapsing

🎙️ The progressive coalition is fracturing across media, culture, and politics and causing a total collapse on the left. The fellas examine things like Greta Thunberg’s flotilla and the colliding ideals of liberals all over the world. FYI, Gaza isn’t super into the gays - a lesson the flotilla is learning the hard way. ⚡️ A recap of why the fellas hate Jim Comey so much, and Duncan explains why there is no better representative of the deep state.

🎙️ There is an obvious uptick in recent and unprovoked attacks on ICE, including yesterday's shooting in Dallas. These are not isolated incidents but a symptom of a larger problem. Just look at these leftists carving phrases into their bullets, just like Luigi Mangione (who was celebrated as a folk hero by the left). Democratic politicians who are actively demonizing ICE agents and portraying them as Nazis, the Gestapo, or slave patrols need to rein it in. Unless the Democratic Party leadership
