The Missing Congressman

Trump Had A Huge Meltdown On Meet The Press & It Was So Good!

If you haven't watched Trump's latest meltdown on Meet The Press, you should check it out because it's both painful to watch yet so enjoyable to watch this orange man baby crack under tough questioning from Kristen Welker. Trump reported by rehashing his lies about voter fraud, which he used in 2020 when discussing the results of California's election. It's important to remember that Trump is freaking out because his endorsed candidate for governor, Steve Hilton, might not make it into the top two spots in California's jungle primary once all of the votes are counted. This explains the rehashing of the Big Lie about massive voter fraud, especially heading into the 2026 midterm elections. It truly was a massive trainwreck for Trump.  Speaking of the 2026 midterm elections, we discuss whether we're still backing Graham Platner's U.S. Senate candidacy in Maine after a whole week's worth of controversial allegations. And while we're on the topic of trainwrecks, we'll also talk about Bari Weiss and Nick Bilton doing Larry and David Ellison's bidding to kill off all of CBS News' crediibility while turning it into a MAGA propaganda machine.

The Missing Congressman

With most of the Find Out team at Trending Up, Tim was left to run this show solo (a first for us). He dives into the California and Iowa election results from Tuesday's primaries, the latest Graham Platner controversy and Bari Weiss destroying 60 Minutes. He also answers questions that were submitted through the Find Out Social App. Some are serious, and some are definitely not (including the proper way to cook bacon).

Young Male Viewers Aren't Anti-Democrat, They're Anti-Failure

Since President Obama won the presidency in 2008, Democrats have long believed that younger voters would automatically vote Democratic because of the Republican Party's extreme positions on social issues. But the 2024 election disproved that when Donald Trump made significant gains with male Gen Z voters proving that the Democrats have a young male problem. While the same Gen Z male voters who voted for Trump have soured on him in large numbers, this doesn't mean they will automatically swing back to the Democrats in the 2026 midterms; however, they remain a winnable voting block. On this episode of the Find Out Podcast, we're joined by Arianna Jones, executive director of NextGen America, to provide insight into what Gen Z voters, especially male Gen Z voters, view on the state of the two party system. Jones confirms many of our theories about why 44% of Gen Z voters are unaffiliated and the type of political leaders they want in charge. We also gain a better understanding of how Gen Z realizes the real threat of fascism under Trump's second term and the growing anxiety surrounding AI under the control of billionaires like Elon Musk. There's a lot to dive into in this episode but one thing is clear: Democrats cannot take Gen Z voters for granted. Especially since they will make up more than 50 million eligible voters in time for the 2028 election.  Learn more about your ad choices.

We like to win

We here on the Find Out Podcast are a big fans of Democrats winning elections and we couldn't be happier with this week's news that Attorney General Ken Paxton (R-TX), who was endorsed by Trump, won his runoff election, unseating the incumbent U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) as the Republican nominee. Why are we excited about this? Because Paxton, who has been impeached by the Republican Super Majority in the Texas state legislature for embezzlement, busted for an extramarital affair and is generally hated by Cornyn voters and his fellow Texas Republicans, this creates an excellent opportunity for State Rep. James Talarico (D-TX) to finally flip Texas Blue. The last time Texas Democrats came close to flipping this seat was in 2018 when U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) narrowly defeated Rep. Beto O'Rourke (D-TX) by 2.6%. On this episode, we'll make the case for why someone like Paxton is worse than Cruz. Talarico's ability to communicate effectively with religious Christian voters, coupled with Hispanic and Latino voters turning on Trump in large numbers, makes this a must watch race that could help the Democrats win the U.S. Senate this year.  We'll also discuss why conviction is the best weapon for Democrats to counter Republican messaging when pitching massive changes like universal health care. We also enjoyed watching Chelsea Handler and Pete Davidson destroy Tony Hinchcliffe at the Netflix Roast of Kevin Hart. We also crack down on corporations using investments in AI data centers to justify mass layoffs but those investments haven't been paying off. Also, we'll highlight how the tech billionaires like Marc Andreessen, Peter Thiel and Elon Musk want cheaper workers while J.D. Vance and Stephen Miller want more white workers.

We all get cancelled!

On this episode, all four Find Out Podcast hosts are going to reveal their controversial Hot Takes on some big issues. We warn you that some of these hot takes might be triggering but we open this episode to a civil debate on the issues: Zak has some strong opinions on how the left discusses Israel. Luke wants Democrats who know nothing about how assault weapons work to just shut the f*** up. Rich doesn't have a fundamental problem with the death penalty. Tim remains adamant that Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) has a better shot at being President than Gavin Newsom or Kamala Harris.  Before we delve into them, we cover some big news that happened this week. First off, Trump finally got his revenge against Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), who was the sole Republican to vote against the Big Beautiful Bill and push for the release of the Epstein Files, by endorsing Massie's primary opponent. Massie lost his primary on Tuesday night by 10 points. Also, Trump has endorsed indicted and impeached Attorney General Ken Paxton (R-TX) over the incumbent U.S. Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) in the Senate runoff. Could this help throw the race to State Rep. James Talarico (D-TX)? We will see. And of course, we'll talk about Trump's slush fund with the IRS that funds January 6th offenders. Since this is making Senate Republicans very nervous heading into the 2026 midterms, we propose Democrats pitch this to voters as the Thank You For Beating Cops Fund.
