Show Notes
If you missed my live mailbag on Substack Live today, you can check it out above. I started it off by talking about what life is like in Minneapolis right now and my workflow covering right-wing media, then took an array of questions from viewers. This was the first time I’ve done something like this, and the response was overwhelmingly positive — over 1,600 people tuned in! I’ll do another one soon, and if you’d like to partake in asking me questions, please become a paid subscriber to the newsletter. David Nir and I will be back with our first 2026 episode of Nir & Rupar next Friday. Thanks for supporting the show!

More from PN Pod
In this week’s episode of the PN Pod, Paul and I go deep on Trump’s shambolic midterm rallies, his devolution over the past decade, and how you can draw a straight line from his weird obsession with Jon Husted’s ass to Nazi propaganda. We also discuss Barack Obama hitting the campaign trail and why he’s remembered far more fondly than any other living president. We had a great live audience today of over 1,000 people, so thank you to all who tuned in.

This week’s episode of the PN Pod features me and Paul discussing Pete Hegseth’s barbaric announcement about making public executions great again, the sad spectacle of Trump’s midterm rally tour, and why voters pretending he’s on the ballot is actually the last thing Republicans want.

On this week’s PN Pod, Paul and I discuss Trump’s North Korea-style taxpayer-funded propaganda videos, why they’re likely to backfire, and then broaden the conversation out to an examination of Trump’s baffling midterm strategy.

In this week’s PN Pod, Paul and I discuss the Trump-Xi summit and Trump’s pathetic thirstiness to be besties with authoritarian rulers, the president’s almost unfathomable ignorance about AI, taxpayers footing the bill for Trump propaganda ads the administration is placing on right-wing cable networks, why Paul expects the trickle of Republicans opposing Trump to become a flood, and more!
