2026 Is The Year To Go On The Offensive

The Social Contract with Joe Walsh ·

2026/01/09

2026 must be the year of the resistance. With a mad, dangerous king in the White House, this must be the year we stop reacting to everything he does, but instead lead the charge by protesting, boycotting, informing, organizing, and voting. My conversation with long time Democrat Edwin Eisendrath. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Another Reminder: Trump WANTS Violence. Don’t Give It...

The Social Contract with Joe Walsh ·

2026/01/08

Trump wants there to be violence, chaos and death on our streets. Because he believes it will help him politically. Pretty astounding thing to say about an American president, huh? But it’s true. He wanted Jan 6th to be violent because he wanted the election overturned. He wants violence on our streets in 2026 because he thinks it’ll help him win the midterms. Don’t give it to him.

Yes, The Truth Is Scary. But You Need To Accept It. Now.

The Social Contract with Joe Walsh ·

2026/01/07

I confess to being surprised that so many people and so many leaders here and around the world STILL haven’t accepted the truth about Donald Trump. After all these years, so many people still don’t want to acknowledge who Donald Trump is. I know it’s a scary truth, but people better accept it. Because he needs to be stopped. Hosted on Acast.

A Day This Country Will Never Recover From

The Social Contract with Joe Walsh ·

2026/01/06

Five years ago today, our Capitol was attacked. Not by foreign armies. By American citizens. In a violent attempt to overthrow an American election. These Americans were led and inspired by the lies of a traitor to this country. That traitor, that enemy of democracy, is back in power 5yrs later. We will never be the same. Hosted on Acast.

Yes, Trump Is A Tyrant. But We’ve Let Him Be A Tyrant

The Social Contract with Joe Walsh ·

2026/01/05

Invading Venezuela and kidnapping its leader was illegal, unconstitutional, and immoral. Trump had no legal authority to do it. It was just wrong. But every day for the past ten yrs, Trump has done illegal, unconstitutional, and immoral things. And we’ve NEVER held him accountable for any of it. So who’s to blame him for thinking he can do whatever he wants? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

By now, everyone should acknowledge the truth. Donald Trump is on Russia’s side. He works for Putin. As mind boggling as that is to acknowledge, we must acknowledge it so we fully understand what we’re dealing with. The leader of the free world is not on the side of the free world. He’s taking his marching orders from Putin. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We’re Not Okay

The Social Contract with Joe Walsh ·

2025/12/26

I don’t care what your politics are, I don’t care if you’re MAGA right, far left, or somewhere in between. Darn near every American knows America isn’t okay right not. We’re just not. Something is wrong. We’re not okay. And if we want to stay together as a nation, we need to figure out why we’re not okay. And then figure out how to fix it.Listen to Man, I'm Not OK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6Rmd8TPToM Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Don’t Laugh At What You Saw & Heard Last Night....

The Social Contract with Joe Walsh ·

2025/12/18

Yes, Trump’s speech last night was 18 minutes of an angry old man yelling at us, lying to us, and trying to cover his ass. Yes, it was laughable. But that old man had been elected twice, and it’s up to all of us to, after we laugh at him, keep our heads down to do what we have to do to win in 2026. Because he and his people work everyday to try to cheat in the midterms. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Personal Character MUST Matter. If It Doesn’t, Then...

The Social Contract with Joe Walsh ·

2025/12/16

I’ve said it often, but the beauty of Trump is that because he’s so bad, and so horrible, he’s forcing Americans to decide in real time what kind of country we want to be. And because Trump is utterly void of personal character, he’s forcing the American people to answer this question: Does character matter anymore? Well, does it? How we answer that question will had profound impact on our democracy. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The Social Contract with Joe Walsh ·

2025/12/12

It’s too easy to say - Trump is finished, he’s a loser, he’s a lame duck, his cultish party is finally going to stand up to him. It’s all too easy to say, and we’ve been here too many times before. Trump, as long as he’s breathing, will be the leader of the Republican Party. And to win, Democrats must not hope Trump finally fades. Democrats must BEAT him. Hosted on Acast.
