THE OFFICIAL MEA CULPA WITH MICHAEL COHEN ARCHIVE

Like the vaccine and the return of live music and indoor dining, another gift was delivered to the masses when the FBI stormed the apartment of former Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani for a multitude of possible crimes. How this man has skated untouched for so long was no mystery. He was being protected from high up by Trump and his Justice Department. But with Biden’s election and the appointment of Merrick Garland as AG, there’s a new sheriff in town and Rudy is going down! Later I speak with the Washington Post’s Greg Sargent about the demonization of the left, the MAGA victory in state and local elections and other fun topics.

One year ago Donald Trump stood before the American people and suggested drinking bleach and injecting disinfectant to cure the Covid 19 virus. In a presidency marked my insanity. This one presser might have been the most insane one of all. It also revealed for those who didn’t already know, that the man in charge of our recovery and our lives, was bat shit insane crazy.

A collective sigh of relief was exhaled across the nation as Derek Chauvin was found guilty on all charges. Typically the reaction between the right and left shows just how deeply fractured the nation has become. At the heart of all this are the racist MAGA conspiracies being spun about how Black Lives Matter threatened to burn down American cities if Chauvin was not found guilty. Tucker Carlson melts down on air about the subject while claiming that Chauvin was lynched by the left. You can’t make this stuff up. Unfortunately, it’s what many believe.

The madness of King Donald arrived in the state of Georgia and has morphed into a Frankenstein's monster that threatens to devour the Republican Party and doom their electoral chances in a pair of Senate run off races to be held January 5th. After releasing the Kraken of conspiracy and unsupported allegations of election fraud which saw members of their own party face death threats and online harassment, Trump proxies are now apoplectic at their own lawyers for advocating that voters boycott the election until these allegations are settled. Republican Party Reptiles like Newt Gingrich, who eagerly jumped on the conspiracy bandwagon weeks ago, now find themselves back peddling furiously; trying to put the genie back in the bottle. But it's too late, leaving us to wonder, "has the whole world gone crazy?" Michael speaks with Law and Crime's Adam Klasfeld to get these answers and more in a revealing conversation about what's happening at the heart of these ridiculous lawsuits.

How can a nation that is built upon reason find itself in such an unreasonable position, where a two-bit, wannabe despot can work the corners of our legal system to halt the entire transition of power? With the country exhausted from the trauma of this never ending election and the looming specter of death from COVID, we all are stuck in a terrible limbo. Searching for answers and rational thought, Michael speaks with Harvard University Professor of Constitutional Law, Laurence Tribe. One of the main architects of Al Gore's recount fight from the 2000 election, Tribe has argued 35 cases in front of the Supreme Court and finds himself mired in the current mess; advising the Biden team from afar as one frivolous lawsuit after another is filed. His words provide a balm for the ever present irritation of Trump and his team of legal crows. Also, make sure to check o...

On this episode of the Mea Culpa Week in Review, we examine the last 72 hours in the mind of Donald J. Trump as he attempts to overturn the election with his bogus fraud claims. In addition, we look at two of his most creepy errand boys, Lindsay Graham and Rudy Giuliani and wonder what sort of kompromat Trump possesses that they could stomach their roles in his defense. Rudy has gone even more batshit insane and was put in charge of Trump's entire legal strategy while Lindsay Graham is driving around Washington in his windowless van looking to lure people in with promises of candy if they only throw out those legal ballots. Finally, we talk to national security expert John Cipher who for 28 years served in the CIA's clandestine service ultimately as the European Chief of Station. He talks with Michael about the role disinformation plays in President Trump's overall strategy to undermine the election and how his goal of sewing chaos hues closely to that of Vladimir Putin.
