Dominic Carter delivers unfiltered takes from New York City to the world on a Friday A.M.. Rumors swirl that Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer is done and won't seek re-election in 2028, facing mounting pressure as Democrats break ranks on the shutdown vote. The potential replacement? None other than "Senator Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs," AOC. Carter dissects AOC's shocking claims that Trump supporters are defecting to "free, free, free democratic socialism" and worries about the continuing "destruction of the Democrat party". The drama doesn't stop there: California Democrat Congressman Eric Swalwell has been criminally referred to the Justice Department over alleged mortgage fraud, joining a number of Democrats facing similar allegations. Dominic Carter and his guests argue that the modern Democrats are now a party of "crazies and lunatics and radical leftists" focused on selling a "bill of goods" promising "free, free, free" benefits.
