AN 5 26
Nobel laureate Paul Krugman calls right-wing politics “deadly” — and predicts that “MAGA Will Kill Many Americans,” by the thousands, driven by greed and willful ignorance.
Krugman goes one step further, arguing outright that this is not by accident:
“Does MAGA want to see thousands of Americans die prematurely from smoking and refusal to get vaccinated? Yes,” he writes.
He argues that the right’s decades-long opposition to health care is driven by greed, especially from “wealthy donors unwilling to pay taxes to help others in need.”
Krugman points to Tuesday’s decision by Trump’s FDA to allow blueberry and mango-flavored vapes, which critics warn will increase use among the young.
Why?
“Trump is reportedly hoping that support for vaping will win back support from young men,” Krugman writes — a constituency the president has been losing during his second term in office.
There’s also the recent decision, again by Trump’s FDA, to block the release of studies finding the COVID-19 and shingles vaccines safe, with side effects rare.
“Beyond this,” he continues, “right-wing politics in America often goes hand in hand with hostility to science in general and medical science in particular. The deadly linkage between reactionary politics and rejection of science was obvious during the Covid pandemic.”
Krugman also implicates greed in the anti-vaccine movement, saying that “quack medicine is big business.”
“Right-wing radio and social media have long relied on peddlers of snake oil for a large part of their revenue. So much of the attack on medical science can be seen as financially motivated,” he writes.
Ideological willful ignorance plays a part as well — driven by the alliance between oligarchs and white Christian nationalism, the latter of which is “deeply hostile to Enlightenment values, modern science very much included.”
To prove his point, Krugman points to the widely-reported resurgence of measles, that was seen as eliminated from the United States decades ago, thanks to vaccines. Now, many parents are choosing to forego vaccinating their children against this highly contagious and potentially deadly disease.
He adds to that the refusal of many red states to expand Medicaid, a program largely paid for by the federal government under the Affordable Care Act.
The data bear him out. Life expectancy in “Trump-leaning” states trails blue states significantly.
There’s “a strong, clear negative correlation between Trump-leaning orientation and low life expectancy at the state level,” Krugman writes. “Deep red states like Alabama and West Virginia have life expectancy comparable to, say, Kazakhstan.”

ford Admits Defeat Ending Production of Electric Vehicles
ByErica Smith
Dec 19, 2025
Officials with Ford Motor Company say they expect to incur $19.5 billion in charges as they end the production of electric vehicles almost a year after President Trump ended the electric vehicle government mandate signed and approved by Democratic presidents.
Creator and Publisher of the Climate Depot, Marc Morano says despite all the incentives Ford sales couldn’t get above 7 percent. “Even mandated, even with forcing people, and taking away their choice, they couldn’t get out of single digit sales.” Morano said.
He says now, reality sets in. “There’s no government subsidies coming, the EV tax credit is gone, sales are tanking.” He said.
Morano says Ford isn’t alone. Crysler and GM are also feeling the pain, forcing the companies to shift and retool their gas-powered vehicles.
Faced with mounting losses since 2023, totaling $13 billion dollars in its EV division, Ford says they will now offer gas powered, hybrid, and plug-in hybrid vehicles, aimed to pull back from loss-making assets and to redirect capital to more profitable models. “Instead of plowing billions into the future knowing these large EVs will never make money, we are pivoting. We know the US market enough where we have a lot more certainty in this second inning of reduced-emissions powertrains.” Ford CEO Jim Farley said.
Morano says this is good news for America when these so called “green” vehicles were said to be environmentally safe. “To make one TESLA size 1,000 lb. battery you had to dig up half-a-million pounds of material from the earth.” Morano said.
He says he hopes the green agenda will go away permanently and this is good news for the country.
“This is a great time for America as we are shedding this weird era that if you are not “green” you are essentially an “evil” person, and your choice was taken away.” Morano said.
He says the country has been in a “ying-yang” going back and forth the last 15 years depending on the president in office. Morano says Trump can accomplish this by one- getting rid of the ETA Carbon Dioxide Endangerment Finding Act and to withdraw the United States from the United Nations 1992 Rio Earth Summit Treaty which broadened the whole Net Zero Climate agenda.

The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports the president of conservative insurgency group the Georgia Republican Assembly has been hit with a $500k fine for his part in a massive Ponzi scheme that primarily afflicted Republican donors.
The office of Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger alleges that Nathaniel Darnell “used religion and shared political views to recruit some of his clients and steered them toward investments in First Liberty,” the force behind the scam that has either incriminated or victimized whole sectors of Georgia’s MAGA and Tea Party movements.
In addition to the hefty fine and a “cease and desist” order for conducting business, the Georgia Secretary of State’s office also referred Darnell to a district attorney for potential criminal prosecution over allegations he deceived investors in First Liberty Building & Loan.
“It’s the latest fallout from the collapse of First Liberty, a failed lender that federal regulators have labeled a $140 million Ponzi scheme, and a sign that the state’s investigation is spreading to more people and firms that were in its orbit,” reports AJC.
Darnell, who previously worked for notable Republican politicians and was once executive director of the Cobb County Republican Party, sold unregistered First Liberty investments to nearly four dozen clients without telling his employer, Bankers Life Advisory Services, according to the complaint. He also concealed from clients and his employer that he earned commissions totaling “nearly $250,000 over several years.”
Georgia Republicans are loathe to denounce the Ponzi scheme connected to Republican financier and First Liberty founder Brant Frost IV, despite the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission accusing Frost IV of orchestrating the scheme that funneled millions to his family in under the pretense of boosting far-right politicians. Federal authorities have since frozen the company’s assets.
Meanwhile, state investigators, including President Donald Trump’s nemesis, Raffensperger — a Republican — is pursuing his own investigations into campaign finance issues and alleging violations of state securities laws. The state ethics commission, also, has joined the fight, charging the Georgia Republican Assembly PAC with “61 civil violations of state campaign finance laws, accusing it of illegally trying to sway elections,” according to the AJC. The Commission later added the Georgia Republican Assembly — led by Darnell — as a defendant.
The AJC reports victims include Republicans like 93-year-old retiree Jay McMaster, who heard about First Liberty Building & Loan and it’s MAGA crusade on conservative radio.

Listeners keep calling in to right-wing radio shows to complain about Trump’s policies
Written by Gideon Taaffe
Research contributions from Isabella Corrao, Jane Lee, Helena Hind & Alicia Sadowski
Published 03/20/25 mma
In the past several months, right-wing radio shows have been receiving calls from audiences who are unhappy with the Trump administration’s policies. Listeners are sharing their stories of family members losing jobs, discussing anxiety about the economy, and expressing their disagreement with President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance’s handling of the Ukraine-Russia war.
Right-wing radio shows are getting negative calls from their audiences, but some hosts have dismissed the outrage
- Since Trump took office, listeners have been calling in to right-wing radio shows complaining about the administration’s rhetoric, government cuts, and foreign policy. Some of these callers identified themselves as Trump supporters or Republicans. Media Matters, [2/26/25]
- :{:{Some hosts have noted the increase of such calls but have dismissed the outrage as either “scripted” or not having “merit.”F}:ox’s Sean Hannity commented, “We have seen an uptick in callers that I promise you are scripted and on-message.” Chris Stigall claimed he was being “bombarded with displeased government workers,” adding, “I don’t care, I just don’t.” The producer of Outkick’s The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show noted that the show was “getting some disagreement” about the hosts’ comments on Ukraine, adding, “But I wouldn’t really say it’s disagreement that has merit.” Premiere Radio Networks, *The Sean Hannity Show*, [3/4/25; Salem News, The Chris Stigall Show, 3/12/25; OutKick and Premiere Radio Networks,The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show, 2/28/25]
- ## Callers are upset about the economy and social security
- A caller toThe Brian Kilmeade Showpushed back on Trump’s lie that a significant number of people over the age of 100 were receiving social security checks.The caller asked how people can push back on lies, like when Trump “talked about all of these Social Security recipients over the age of 100. … It has been proven that they are in the system, but they are not actually receiving payments.” Fox News Radio, *The Brian Kilmeade Show*, [3/6/25]
- A caller toThe Mark Levin Showsaid that every time he hears Trump mention tariffs, “I cringe.”Caller: “I've been applauding for the past month and a half almost everything the Trump administration has been doing, but I cringe every time I hear him say something like tariff is my favorite word. … I keep hoping that these tariffs are just a means to an end.” Westwood One, *The Mark Levin Show*, [3/6/25]
- A caller toThe Erick Erickson Shownoted that his annual raise may not meet inflationary pressures under Trump: “I don't think I'll ever catch up.”The caller explained: “I would imagine where people work and they do get a raise once a year, but that's only once a year. Inflation is just, like, ongoing. So I don't, I don't think I'll ever catch up.” Westwood One, *The Erick Erickson Show*, [3/7/25]
- ## Callers have noted the negative impact of government cuts
- A self-identified Republican caller phoned Erick Erickson to discuss his veteran wife being “put on the list for termination” just two months shy of the end of her probationary period.The caller also noted that her job would be understaffed, which would likely have a negative impact on America’s military deployment ports, saying, “Trump said stop using a chainsaw and start using a scalpel. But I don't think they, according to my wife, I don't think they are using a scalpel now.” He later added, “I am hoping that they are taking all this into account, of who is retiring this coming year and how short-handed they are now, because I tell you, when the military deploys, she works around the clock.” Westwood One, *The Erick Erickson Show*, [3/7/25]
- A caller toThe Larry Elder Showasked, “I was just wondering why are you not criticizing the Trump administration” for “cutting the VA 4%?” The caller also noted, “I know that they are overworked and that there’s not enough staff. And just to give you an example of now because of the cuts, the VA in Westwood, which has all these beautiful new brown buildings that are getting ready to open to take the homeless veterans and put them in shelters has now been forced to delay that because they don’t have enough money to staff them once they are open now because of the cuts.” The Salem Podcast Network,*The Larry Elder Show*, [3/11/25]
- A caller to Erickson’s show noted that the USAID freeze was impacting his daughter’s anti-malaria work in Africa. Caller: “I just want to let you know about my daughter who is the good part of USAID. She's in the health section, and she's been with anti-malarial the entire 8 years that she’s been with. And they're really kind of stymied now because once every funds were cut off, a lot of the medications were literally on its way to Africa and other high malarial areas. And they frankly don't know what to do. The people who made the medicine have their invoice and they can't get any money, which violates the contract. The same thing with … warehouses, they can't keep the warehouse anymore and they're talking about dumping them out in the garbage. So this is the other part of USAID, the good part, which needs to be addressed pretty quickly.” Westwood One, *The Erick Erickson Show*, [2/21/25]
- Another caller toThe Erick Erickson Showidentified himself as a former “student in special education” and argued that the proposed elimination of the Department of Education would impact special needs students.Caller: “If you cut a lot of the education out federally, you lose a focus on a wide range of special education like, you know, down syndrome and all kinds of ranges of special education.” Westwood One, *The Erick Erickson Show*, [3/7/25]
- A caller toThe Mark Davis Showcomplained that the federal layoffs were arbitrary and illegal.The caller claimed “I think that he's wrong” to mass fire federal employees, adding, “You can't arbitrarily just fire government officials. The president sure can't.” 660AM, *The Mark Davis Show*, [3/6/25]
- ## Callers complained about Trump and Vance’s handling of the war in Ukraine and treatment of Zelensky
- In February, Trump ratcheted up rhetoric toward Zelensky, accusing him of being a “dictator” and suggesting Ukraine was responsible for starting the war. Then in late February, the leaders had a tense exchange in the oval office where Vice President JD Vance claimed Zelensky was not grateful enough for America’s support.
- A caller onThe Larry Elder Showcalled to say he found Vance’s treatment of Zelensky at the White House “reprehensible” and “entirely uncalled for.” He described JD Vance and Zelensky’s exchange, saying that Vance, “had a president from a very important foreign country in front of him in our Oval Office, a cherished place for the presidency of The United States, and his conduct in the way that he he challenged President Zelensky in front of the media and in front of our president, our secretary of state, and other various president in the room was entirely uncalled for, such a lack of tact.” He added, “And for somebody whose sole military experience is being a spokesperson for the Marine Corps as his only service, with limited knowledge of having boots on the ground in any part of our countries, I just find unfathomable.” He then called for Vance to apologize: “The person that needs to express apologies is JD Vance.” Salem Podcast Network, *The Larry Elder Show*, [3/1/25]
- Another caller who identified herself as a “big Trump supporter” said on The Larry Elder Show she “became kind of incensed” listening to Trump “bully” Zelensky.Caller: “It just seemed like the bully was coming out in him, going after Zelensky, and I feel like Zelensky’s kind of in a position where he’s almost defenseless.” Salem Podcast Network, *The Larry Elder Show*, [3/1/25]
- A self-identified Trump supporter and former Army colonel called in to Sean Hannity’s show to complain about the way JD Vance talked to Zelensky.Caller: “As soon as JD Vance opened his mouth and started talking, he basically started provoking Zelensky from everything that I can see that this was really a provocation on his part.” Premiere Radio Networks,*The Sean Hannity Show*, [3/3/25]
- A self-identified Trump supporter called Erick Erickson to say that Trump’s comments on Ukraine and Zelensky were “off the charts crazy.” Westwood One, *The Erick Erickson Show*, [2/28/25]
- One caller toThe Steve Gruber Showpushed back on the notion that the rare minerals deal with Ukraine was going to benefit Americans, saying that the deal was really going to benefit corporations.Caller: “How, though, is this rare earth deal going to reimburse the citizenry of our country when those minerals are going to go to corporate entities?” WJIM, *The Steve Gruber Show*, [2/28/25]
- Additionally, on the March 13 edition of CSPAN’s Washington Journal, the program solicited audience opinions about the prospect of the Department of Education being eliminated. A call came in from the show’s “Republican line,” and the caller said, “I am definitely against it completely.” He added, “These teachers are all underpaid. They are not getting the salaries that they’re deserved. If you take somebody making $100,000 a year that does their job versus somebody making $30,000 a year — who is going to do better? I am totally against taking it away from the teachers. I think we need to focus more on how we can spend tax dollars on paying teachers to be able to educate our children.”

Green With Envy? A Conservation Group Has 10 Ideas For U.S. Interior Dept.
By
B.D. Hobbs
Apr 16, 2025
In addition to all of the great work and cuts being made in Washington D.C. by 'DOGE', a leading Montana based conservation group is hoping to streamline the U.S. Department of Interior.
It's the Property and Environment Research Center (PERC), a nonpartisan leader in "market solutions" for conservation, and they have come up with 10 ideas to make it happen.
"I don't know how politically viable they are, but everything they suggested seems really on track with a good conservation policy" said Marc Morano with the Climate Depot, "It's not so much spending, it's the regulatory process. Definitely, you want to deregulate and streamline all of that. This is a heavy regulatory agency historically."
Basically, the group wants to cut a lot of the 'green tape', not the 'red tape'.
"The main thing they're talking about is just to streamline the agency to make it more efficient and work with local communities" Morano told KTRH, "They're just looking at it from a sort of a 'think tank' perspective, and seeing a more efficient way to run things. And they're probably right."

MMA
March 6, 2025, edition of MSNBC's *Deadline: White House
NICOLLE WALLACE (HOST): I mean, Angelo, I wanna come back to something that you have really put in the front of my mind, and that's narrative dominance. And I think it is clear after November's election that Donald Trump always had and maintained and, probably did today, maintains narrative dominance. I think the speech was about dominance, right?
And I think that you can want that to change. You can hate that that is, but the narrative dominance will only change when the credibility is restored on the part of all the people that were right about all of this stuff. And I wonder if you can sort of speak about -- I mean, it seems like lived experience and the pain that people are going to feel because of what Trump is doing that's deeply unpopular helps restore credibility of the folks were that were warning.
I mean, the most unsurprised people are the pro-democracy coalition, the people that were on the front lines and many of the Democratic politicians who were saying this is exactly what he's going to do. The surprised people are the Trump-voting federal workers, the Trump-voting farmers, the Trump-voting small business owners for whom the tariffs, the firings, and the cuts are devastating.
ANGELO CARUSONE (MEDIA MATTERS PRESIDENT): Yeah. I mean and even to your point about the most surprised people -- and I said the last time I was here, and it remains true. If you really want to hear the truth about how people are feeling right now, you have to listen to the callers and to right-wing talk radio because it's only gotten more intense in the last few days because they are calling into the show that they typically listen to and have been for years. And they are saying I'm a listener and yet I've now been affected by this thing. And I didn't think it was going to happen to me.
And they are appealing to people like Sean Hannity and Mark Levin and these other prominent right-wing talkers to sort of go to someone in the Trump orbit and say to them, "Wait. You made a mistake. It actually is hurting me. I didn't -- I wasn't supposed to lose my job. This grant wasn't supposed to get affected. This rule that is affecting my local community was not supposed to happen. You just need to explain to them." And then, of course, they won't do it. And that's, to me, really significant because we are only at the very, very early stages of the types of actions that they're going to continue to take, and we're already seeing the consequences of it.
The other part that's really interesting about the narrative side of it is that one thing that -- you know they offset this right-wing echo chamber, but it's not one monolith. It's not just Fox News anymore. Fox News is a laggard. They used to be the vanguard. They used to be like the assignment editor for the rest of the right-wing media. Fox News and Rush Limbaugh were the centers of gravity. And if they talked about it, it would reverberate through that echo chamber.
That's not really the case anymore. It's a real loose coalition of sort of like right-wing edge lords, frustrated manosphere people, the traditional right-wing media. There's massive disparity. And that echo chamber sort of has been functioning because Trump has been at the center of it and the vibes have been so good, but it's a real loose coalition.
And one place where you see a big separation is around Social Security. In the more traditional right-wing media, there's a lot of, "Woah. Don't break Social Security. Careful. Be careful. That's going to get us backlash."
But in the younger parts of the right-wing media, they're excited for this because 50% of young people didn't expect to get Social Security in the first place, so they don't care if it breaks. And so that's the part that's really interesting is that putting aside anything that the Democrats do and the rest of the media, there is real vulnerabilities already within the right-wing space, both that they're beginning to internalize the truth, as we're seeing with the right-wing talkers and their ability to maintain an echo, is already starting to show some fracture points.
So what does that mean in the grand scheme of things and to your point about restoring credibility? That's the target. That's where both the rest of the meeting -- and I'm so grateful for Alex's reporting on this -- that to elevate those stories, in a way that helps really connect the dots between the harms that are being experienced right now and the actions and the policies that the administration are taking, either because they're reckless as John has said or because they're intentional and deliberate because they're just cruel and callous and because they're trying to reshape our culture. That is going to help restore the credibility. Don't tell people that you have to be credible. Show them that.
They'll get there.
WALLACE: And the point of the credibility is that that is sort of the doorway through which you walk to regain narrative dominance. And then once it is built on the true real lived experiences of people, again -- Democrats, Republicans, farmers, teachers, workers, Social Security recipients -- then it is unshakable.

People are calling into right-wing radio shows to voice frustrations with the Trump administration
Written by Media Matters Staff
Published 02/26/25
Backlash to President Donald Trump’s early actions and statements is starting to erupt at Republican town halls, local and national protests — and on the phone lines of right-wing talk radio shows.
- ## Listeners are calling into right-wing talk radio shows to voice their frustrations
- Following Trump’s first month in office, many right-wing talk radio hosts are having to face callers who, regardless of their personal politics, are voicing their frustrations with the Trump administration’s impact on their own lives.
- Fox host and loyal Trump ally Sean Hannity told a listener who was pleading for the jobs of military vets in the federal government that “there will be other opportunities.” The caller elaborated on their experience: “One of our tenants just recently got laid off from the USDA, and he's a stable vet, multiple deployments overseas. And yeah, the guy is without a job now, and I'm just afraid that, you know, stuff like this is going to get out there.” The caller noted Hannity’s “soft spot for military and police and EMS and all those guys” and said that it’s “just a little concerning that we don't let these guys, you know, fall off the wagon here and get neglected, because they've done so much for our country.” Premiere Radio Networks' *The Sean Hannity Show*, [2/21/25]
- Another caller to Hannity’s show asked him to stand up for “rank and file” agents: “This appears to be a misstep in the wrong direction.” Hannity responded by saying, “There are going to have to be hard questions for rank and file members in terms of their priority and whether or not they challenged some of the higher-ups.” Premiere Radio Networks' The Sean Hannity Show, [2/5/25]
- A listener called into The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show to say that they are “not happy with his [Trump’s] recent comments on Ukraine.”Travis appeared to cut the caller off, asking of Russia’s war with Ukraine, “How do you think this should end?” OutKick, *The Clay Travis and Buck Sexton Show*, [2/21/25]
- A caller into Hannity’s show who described themselves as a “strong supporter of this administration” pleaded for advice with the firings: “How do you make life decisions?”Hannity responded by saying, “The main focus is going to be on limiting the bureaucracy. How many of these jobs are redundant? … Just make yourself as essential as possible.” The caller elaborated: “Mr. Musk talks about cutting, you know, $2 trillion. Well, that's beyond what the entire discretionary budget every year is, you know, roughly 1.7, 1.8 for discretionary. You would have to eliminate everything, the entire federal government to hit that.” Premiere Radio Networks' *The Sean Hannity Show*, [2/6/25]
- A caller toThe Alex Jones Showaccused Trump of “lying” about birthright citizenship: “If they want to pass this, we're going to get rid of 150 million U.S. citizens.” Jones responded by asking the caller if they like the “Chinese flying here one week before they have their baby, getting all their health care paid for?” The caller expressed that their “concern is I was born in this country.” Infowars, *The Alex Jones Show,*[2/20/25]
- A Canadian listener called into Hannity’s radio show to discuss boycotts there against the U.S.: “You've disrespected us to this point, and we have to respond.”The caller told Hannity that Canadians are “buying Canadian” and are not going to Florida for vacation, concluding that the “boycott’s already begun.” Hannity retorted: “Who would be hurt worse by” a “boycott war” between the U.S. and Canada? Premier Radio Networks, *The Sean Hannity Show*, [2/25/25]
- A caller told Hannity, “I cannot agree with you on the Gaza situation.”They continued, “As far as making those people leave their land and not being able to return, that's just totally wrong.” Hannity defended Trump’s plan as “rebuilding Gaza, creating jobs, [and] building innovation,” to which the caller responded “that's not innovative. That's racist,” because “the president said those people cannot return” and “most of these people don't have anything to do with Hamas.” When Hannity claimed that “the people in Gaza voted in Hamas’ leadership,” the caller told him that “what you're saying is that everybody there is a terrorist, and that's racist.” Premiere Radio Networks, *The Sean Hannity Show*, [2/13/25]
- A listener called into Hannity’s show to discuss their child’s cancer diagnosis and advocate for cancer research funding: “With the lack of funding, basically, all you get is parents like me who have had a kid with this, starting organizations and coming up with money to carry on the research for them. So that's why I wanted to call and … advocate for research.” Hannity responded by arguing that “most of the solutions for cancer are going to be found in the private sector, not with public money.” The caller noted that “with such a small number of kids getting this [cancer diagnosis], yeah, it's definitely something that doesn't get looked at as much.” Hannity responded that “even if the government spent … $300 million on this particular cancer tomorrow, it's not going to be your answer.” [Premiere Radio Networks,The Sean Hannity Show, 2/12/25]
- Chris Stigall, host ofThe Chris Stigall Podcast, noted that he’s received “quite a bit of outreach from you federal workers.” He read one email from a listener who remarked that “it’s difficult to get beyond your disrespect and disregard for federal employees.” Stigall noted that the email is “not the only one of these that I got on both X and in email.” Stigall responded to the reader's email: “I'm going to talk to you like an adult here for a minute. Grow up. Grow up. If you work for the federal government, you need to grow up, respectfully.” *The Chris Stigall Podcast*, [2/24/25]
- A caller to Fox host Brian Kilmeade’s radio show accused Trump of trying to “bribe” people with DOGE dividends.The caller noted, “The last tax break that Trump gave was $1.9 trillion and 65% with the people making over a $130,000 a year. … If you're going to get after the excess spending, you have to go after a military waste and the rich — make the rich pay. Instead, he's trying out for a $5,000 bribe to people." Fox News Radio, *Brian Kilmeade Show,*[2/21/25]
- A caller to Fox host Mark Levin's radio show makes impassioned plea concerning the legal status of his fiancé: “We've been planning on getting married now for a few months. And it seems like I've read on the news now that, if you were paroled into the United States, you can't file any forms, for immigration.” The caller also expressed concern with people turning against Ukraine, where his fiancé and her family are from. Westwood One, *The Mark Levin Show*, [2/19/25]
