Trump BANKRUPTED His Casinos — Now He's BANKRUPTING America | TMP #1066

America Was Supposed to Hate These Strangers | TMP #1077

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1583908/fan_mail/new] There’s a story America keeps telling itself. That we’re angry. That we’re divided. That we’ve forgotten how to welcome people who come from somewhere else. Then a soccer team from Algeria arrived in Lawrence, Kansas. And ruined the whole story. In this Opening Argument, Tony Michaels tells the remarkable true story of how a Midwestern college town embraced visitors from North Africa during the 2026 World Cup. From marching bands learning a foreign national anthem to strangers exchanging jerseys and hugs, Lawrence reminded the country what community looks like. This isn’t a story about politics. It’s a story about people. 🎙️ Presented by Squawk Boss Coffee Before you buy better coffee, learn how to wake up the coffee you already have.

Who's Really Raising Your Grocery Bill? | TMP #1076

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1583908/fan_mail/new] A retired electrician and a 24-year-old grocery clerk have something in common. Neither one of them started a war. Yet both of them are paying for one. In today's Opening Argument, Tony Michaels tells the story of two Americans standing on opposite sides of a checkout lane who discover they're living inside the same economic squeeze. One can't afford the groceries. The other can't afford the groceries she sells. Meanwhile, grocery prices keep rising, wages struggle to keep up, and the people making the biggest decisions rarely stand in the checkout line with the rest of us. Who really benefits when working people blame each other instead of asking who holds the power? 🎙️ Today's Opening Argument is presented by Squawk Boss Coffee.

Trump DOJ Just Crossed a Constitutional Line | TMP #1075

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1583908/fan_mail/new] Trump’s DOJ Just Tested the First Amendment Donald Trump says this is about law and order. History says we've heard that before. In today's Opening Argument, I tell the story of a 25-year-old man named John Lewis walking across the Edmund Pettus Bridge in 1965. The government told him not to march. The government told him to go home. The government used force to silence dissent. For a few terrible minutes, government power looked unstoppable. But the Constitution plays the long game. Now, sixty years later, the Department of Justice has indicted 15 people in Minnesota under an initiative tied to Trump's executive order targeting what his administration calls "antifa." If someone commits a crime, charge the crime. But what happens when government starts attaching political labels to dissent? What happens when criticism begins to look suspicious to the people holding power? What happens when Americans exercising constitutional rights start being described as enemies instead of citizens? We've seen this story before. And history has a lesson for people who underestimate liberty. ☕ Today's Opening Argument is presented by Squawk Boss Coffee Fuel your freedom: https://SquawkBossCoffee.com [https://SquawkBossCoffee.com] 📖 Read more at: https://TheCoffmanChronicle.com [https://TheCoffmanChronicle.com] You’re listening to today’s Opening Argument from The Tony Michaels Podcast.

Trump's Team Wants This Dangerous Power | TMP #1074

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1583908/fan_mail/new] Stephen Miller said it out loud. The Trump administration openly discussed suspending habeas corpus—the constitutional protection that forces the government to explain why it is detaining someone. Most Americans have never heard the term. But they've seen what happens when governments decide some people don't deserve constitutional protections. In today's Opening Argument, I tell the story of a father who lost his freedom, his home, and his rights because America was afraid. The twist? It didn't happen under Donald Trump. It happened under Franklin Delano Roosevelt. This isn't a story about Republicans or Democrats. It's a story about power. Because every generation convinces itself that constitutional exceptions will only be used against the "right" people. Every generation is wrong. ☕ Presented by Squawk Boss Coffee Fuel your freedom: https://squawkbosscoffee.com/ [https://squawkbosscoffee.com/] 📰 Read The Coffman Chronicle: https://www.thecoffmanchronicle.com [https://www.thecoffmanchronicle.com] 🎙️ Listen to The Tony Michaels Podcast: https://www.thetonymichaels.com [https://www.thetonymichaels.com] If you love your country but don't trust concentrated power, subscribe, like, and share.

Mike Johnson's MOST PATHETIC Trump Favor Yet | TMP #1073

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1583908/fan_mail/new] Donald Trump wants Congress to do something the Constitution never assigned it to do: clean up his mess. House Speaker Mike Johnson is reportedly under pressure to support an effort to "expunge" Trump's impeachments from the House record. But Congress wasn't created to protect presidents from accountability. It was created to hold them accountable. In today's Opening Argument, I tell the story of a teenager with a messy bedroom, a frustrated mother, and why responsibility cannot be outsourced—not in a family and not in a constitutional republic. https://www.thecoffmanchronicle.com/p/trump-knows-congress-has-power-he?r=iea5a [https://www.thecoffmanchronicle.com/p/trump-knows-congress-has-power-he?r=iea5a] The question isn't whether Congress can pass a resolution. The question is why Congress is spending its time trying to rewrite history instead of doing the job Article I assigned it. ☕ Presented by Squawk Boss Coffee Wake Up. Stand Up.
