Guantanamo Bay

Kasich and Cruz pool their desperation to force Donald Trump into a contested convention.

Superdelegates don't look so bad when they alone can stop you from face-planting in front of the entire electorate.

Michelle Branch closes tonight's show with more of her musical farewell to Ted Cruz, who will be missed in a perverse kind of way.

Libertarian Convention

Episode 15

What can we learn from the mass shooting in Orlando? Whatever it is, you can count on our elected officials to ignore it. We didn't believe it at first either, but a state that seems to be doing a great job with improving mental health is... Florida? Full Frontal visited the Libertarian National Convention in Orlando, FL, where libertarians acted like total libertarians. Breaking News: New York 1's Pat Kiernan is sick of reporting mass shootings. So are we.

Tribal Courts

Episode 16

Hey, NRA! Are those most of our elected GOP members of Congress in your pocket? Or am I just too depressed to finish this joke? Up next: a look at how Donald Trump is making crackpot paranoid fascist slogans great again. The U.S. is taking away the right of Native Americans to hear cases in their own tribal courts, and we're not even giving them any smallpox. We conclude with an act of kindness and compassion more powerful than any high-capacity assault rifle.

Muslim-American Reporting

Episode 17
