The Michael Steele Podcast

<div> <p>When the legal system is under fire, why are we relying on citizens with cell phones instead of the world’s most powerful law firms?

<div> <p>The math of modern poverty doesn't add up. When families are expected to thrive on a mere $3 per meal, food insecurity becomes a policy failure rather than a personal one.

<div>A crisis of hypocrisy has gripped Washington, laying bare a disturbing pattern of selective prosecution. Michael Steele discusses recent high-profile mortgage fraud allegations and explores the broader, dangerous implications. He dissects the actions of the President and his Justice Department against key figures like Tish James, exposing the irony of their zealous focus amid serious, unaddressed issues within their own sphere. This is an essential view for understanding how political defiance is being managed—or mismanaged—at the highest levels of power.<br> <br> Catch Michael Steele on The Weeknight Mondays - Fridays at 7pm EST on MSNBC: <a href="https://www.msnbc.com/weeknight">https://www.msnbc.com/weeknight</a><br> <br> Follow Michael on X: <a href="https://x.com/MichaelSteele">https://x.com/MichaelSteele</a><br> <br> Follow Michael on Bluesky: <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/michaelsteele.bsky.social">https://bsky.app/profile/michaelsteele.bsky.social</a><br> <br> Follow Michael on Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/chairman_steele/">https://www.instagram.com/chairman_steele/</a> <br> <br> Follow Michael on Threads: <a href="https://www.threads.net/@chairman_steele">https://www.threads.net/@chairman_steele</a><br> <br> Listen to The Michael Steele Podcast: <a href="https://www.thebulwark.com/s/the-michael-steele-podcast">https://www.thebulwark.com/s/the-michael-steele-podcast</a><br> <br> Watch The Michael Steele Podcast: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJNKzTkCZE9uNqPiKYw5eU5YkS_mMsr6o">https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLJNKzTkCZE9uNqPiKYw5eU5YkS_mMsr6o</a> </div>

Trump's TikTok deal looks like classic crony capitalism as well as open theft. But China has bigger fish to fry with trade than its TikTok algorithm—which led Congress last year to ban the app in the U.S.
