The Ed Morrissey Show

So writes John Kass, in an essay that Andrew Malcolm flagged for our latest episode. The mainstream media certainly seems on board with the effort to kill Tesla; Andrew and I compare their coverage of an extended domestic-terror campaign against Elon Musk's business interests and their obsession with January 6. The potential return of Rahm Emanuel gives Andrew a chance to recall hi

What are the "woke mind viruses," and how do we cure the body politic of them? Author T.S. Dixon joins me to discuss his new book The Woke Mind Viruses, and what he sees as the origins and aims of the woke movement. Donald Trump and Elon Musk are on the right path, T.S. warns, but it will take a much larger effort to eradicate these viral plagues once and for all.

Chuck Schumer has led his party into a box canyon. Now he wants them to leap off the nearest ledge. Daily Caller columnist Mary Rooke discusses the bizarre refusal of Democrats to listen to voters, offer any sort of policies that address their concerns, and choice to align themselves with the fringe of the electorate on almost every issue. Plus: What is "the good life"?

From autopens to CRs, Democrats appear to have forgotten everything they ever knew about politics. Andrew Malcolm and I discuss the basics that have been forgotten and why Donald Trump needs to learn a lesson from it. Chuck Schumer's humiliation won't be the last for Democrats.

It's been a week since Donald Trump's speech to Congress. What did it reveal about Trump -- and about Democrats? We also discuss how Jeff Bezos plans to revamp the Washington Post, and how Patrick Soon-Shiong is already ahead of the curve at the LA Times. Andrew also wonders when Trump will get a US source out of a Pakistani prison.

What will Donald Trump tell a joint session of Congress tonight? Andrew Malcolm and I game out the potential asks and points for Trumpian triumphalism. The border will almost certainly be a big topic for the latter. We also wonder what lessons Democrats are learning -- and which lessons they aren't.

What do the twelve most formative battles in Western history tell us? Author Michael Walsh presents them in his new book "A Rage to Conquer," detailing the fascinating lessons from The Iliad to the World Trade Center. Michael and I discuss some of the connecting threads between these battles, why Napoleon Bonaparte gave us modern Europe, and how a return to masculine virtue and mar

Has any president since FDR had a more robust first month in office? Andrew Malcolm note how popular Donald Trump has become and debate how much of that is his agenda and how much the sense of action contributes. We also discuss the housecleaning at MSNBC, the popularity of Trump's agenda, and more!

The first Trump Bowl may have been a bust on the field, but it was a boon for Donald Trump and conservatives. Andrew Malcolm and I discuss the retreat of wokery, Trump's enthusiastic reception, and a little bit about the game too. We also discuss Trump's newfound popularity as a leader, and why he's starting off with a huge boost in job approval.

What is the one quality that has been restored to American public life? Leadership, Andrew Malcolm and I agree. Plus, we both note that this is the most energetic fortnight in decades, perhaps in 92 years. Not that we were there, of course! For Democrats wondering what went wrong, perhaps that's the place to start.
