Dead Air: Life's Not Fair | Steve Schmidt and Dean Blundell
<p>To absolutely no one's surprise, Donald Trump's "Great American Fair" is a flop. Seven states are a no-show, the ferris wheel is on the fritz and the ICE CREAM HAS MELTED. Speaking of meltdowns, Steve and Dean tear apart Megyn Kelly's hideous racist rant against Haitians and take a deep dive into the progressive primary sweep we saw in New York this week. Does it mean the entire Democratic party is about to take a big step to the left?

Dead Air: A Monumental Mess | Steve Schmidt, Dean Blundell, Jennifer Welch and Angie "Pumps" Sullivan
<p>Tacky gold trim, torn up sod, and a "reflecting pool" full of algae and dead ducks. You've really got to hand it to Donald Trump -- only he could make one of the most historic and picturesque cities in America look like the home and garden section of a foreclosed Big Lots. Steve Schmidt and Dean Blundell are joined by a pair of guests who've also "had it" with Donald's desecration of our nation's capitol: Jennifer Welch and Angie "Pumps" Sullivan of the "I've Had It" Podcast. Nothing and no one is safe from these four so we hope JD's eyeliner is waterproof today. Put on your best Erika Kirk death stare and come join us for this show that you do not want to miss!

Dead Air: Ringside Siesta | Steve Schmidt and Dean Blundell
<p>We can't blame Donald Trump for getting some shut-eye during the UFC fights staged in honor of his 80th birthday -- the rest of us didn't want to see that mess, either. Today, Dead Air with Steve Schmidt and Dean Blundell tears into the monstrosity that took place this weekend at the White House: from the weigh-in at the Lincoln Memorial to the bitcoin grift to the leaked DMs that have Eric Trump scrambling on X. PLUS: Team Trump limps away from the negotiation table with a truly head-scratching agreement to end the war with Iran. Is this "The Art of the Deal", Don? SAD!
