November 25 Podcast: Swastikas, Court-Martials, and Why I’m With Kathy Hochul

November 25 Podcast: Swastikas, Court-Martials, and Why I’m With Kathy Hochul


On today’s November 25 podcast, I break down the surreal moment we’re living in—where Mark Kelly, a Navy combat pilot and astronaut, is being threatened with a court-martial and even hanging by MAGA extremists, while Trump openly embraces swastikas and tears down monuments honoring the World War II veterans who actually fought fascism. And I say clearly why I’m endorsing Kathy Hochul: she moved to the left, toward decency and inclusion, while Elise Stefanik moved to hate purely for ambition. Go Kathy.

November 24: The MAGA Crack-Up Continues

November 24: The MAGA Crack-Up Continues

Less than a year into this mess, the MAGA world is cracking apart in real time.

Right-wing influencers are jumping off the bandwagon one by one:


MTG — gone.

Candace Owens — gone.

Tucker — gone.

Nick Fuentes — gone.


The empire is collapsing from the inside. They’re eating their own.


Meanwhile, are we seriously talking about invading Nicaragua now? So much for “ending forever wars.”


And remember all the promises?


Trump said he’d lower prices.

Prices are still high. Fail.


He said he’d end endless wars.

We’re drifting toward new conflicts. Fail.


He said he’d release the Epstein files.

Still nothing — and today he’s fighting like hell to stop it. Fail.


If you want to understand what a “Groyper” even is — and why these online extremists are turning on each other — listen to this episode.

The movement is fracturing, collapsing, and combusting on camera.


The MAGA Crack-Up isn’t coming.

It’s here.

November 21: Sleight of Hand — Trump Screams “Hang Them!” While the Chaos Spreads

November 21: Sleight of Hand — Trump Screams “Hang Them!” While the Chaos Spreads

November 21: Trump is trying to distract from his horror show again—threatening to hang people and punish anyone who won’t obey unlawful orders.

It’s all sleight of hand: “Look over here!” while he continues to create chaos everywhere else.

Then we get to the newest nepo-baby fascist, Nailin Haley, son of Nikki—so desperate for approval he’s become a self-erasing descendant of immigrants who somehow manages to look like he's wandered out of the Addams Family casting room.

And Pam Bondi? Completely duplicitous. A walking study in hypocrisy.

But here’s the real point:

We can’t keep marching into political combat like redcoats while Trump and his allies fight guerrilla warfare from the tree line. They’re using ambush tactics. Sniping. Breaking every rule.

Not literally fighting—we’re talking strategy.

But the lesson stands:

You don’t beat guerrilla warfare with parade-march politics.

The rules have changed.

And if we don’t adapt, they will pick us off one by one.

November 20: Trump Is Threatening to Kill People Again — And What Real Christianity Actually Looks Like

November 20: Trump Is Threatening to Kill People Again — And What Real Christianity Actually Looks Like

Tonight I talk about something we all wish we didn’t have to say out loud:

Donald Trump is again threatening to kill U.S. lawmakers, veterans, and anyone else who refuses to follow unlawful orders.

He’s back to the language of hanging, executing, punishing—because a few Americans, including members of our own military, had the courage to say one simple truth:

You do not have to obey an unlawful order.

Not even from a president.

Especially not from a president.

He knows his numbers are collapsing.

He knows the fear isn’t working.

And now he’s panicking, lashing out in the only language he understands—violence and revenge.

But here’s the thing I talk about in this episode:

There are still people of faith in this country who know the difference between power and goodness.

Pope Leo is preaching goodness, dignity, and conscience at a time when the world was drowning in greed and political cruelty. Trump, meanwhile, preaches hate, vengeance, and violence. One calls people upward. The other drags them down.

And those people—the ones who stand up, who refuse to bend the knee to a tyrant—are the best example of what patriotism is supposed to look like.

Not the performative stuff.

Not the culture-war cosplay.

But the real thing:

Courage.

Conscience.

Sacrifice.

Standing with the vulnerable.

Refusing to follow evil for the sake of comfort or belonging.

There’s a famous line in the New Testament:

“You will know them by their fruits.”

Well, look at the fruits.

One man is screaming threats of execution at his fellow Americans.

The other Americans—veterans, lawmakers, ordinary citizens—are simply saying: “I will not betray my conscience, my oath, or my God to serve your rage.”

That’s the message.

That’s the episode.

And honestly?

It’s the first hope I’ve felt in awhile.

November 19: Trump, Maxwell, WWE Politics, and the America That’s Waking Up

November 19: Trump, Maxwell, WWE Politics, and the America That’s Waking Up

You can feel it: America is righting the ship faster than I expected.

People aren’t cool with this. Nobody wants oligarchs and foreign princes setting policy. Nobody wants a president hiding predators.

Today we ask the question no one defending Trump wants to touch:

If he “did nothing wrong,” why did he move Ghislaine Maxwell? Why did he fight so hard to block the Epstein files? Who was he protecting?

His defenders say it’s all “fake” — but innocent people do not move predators around like chess pieces, and they do not use full-force legal teams to hide emails, flight logs, and notes tied to one of the most notorious abusers of our generation.

Then we talk about the Trump persona — not as politics, but as performance. As WWE.

There are heels and babyfaces, and even the babyface eventually goes heel.

And at almost 80 years old, Trump looks ready to go full heel and lose everything. The rage, the paranoia, the alliances with billionaires and trillionaires, the Saudi prince at the White House, mocking the gun reporters covering his meltdown — it’s not strength. It’s unraveling.

Then we turn to the brutality happening right now: ICE arresting dozens and dozens of innocent people, holding them in deplorable, inhumane conditions. Conditions no American would tolerate if cameras were rolling. This is the system Trump built and still defends. It’s cruelty turned into bureaucracy.

Finally, we close with something human: William Shatner at age 94 — charming, radiant, full of life. A reminder that age isn’t the enemy; cruelty is. His grace is a lesson:

You can be 94 and still inspiring, still beautiful, still adding light to the world.

November 18: AI, the Economy, Epstein, and Trump’s King Lear Meltdown

November 18: AI, the Economy, Epstein, and Trump’s King Lear Meltdown

Today we first talk about the economy, AI, and what America should be doing instead of chasing chaos. AI was supposed to make life better — more freedom, more creativity, more family time, not a race to exhaustion. If we don’t wake up and demand that the benefits of technology flow to people, not billionaires, we’re going to lose the most important thing we have left: time with each other.

And then… Trump. The man is flaming out. His own party is turning against him — MTG, others — and yes, they should be applauded for leaving. We may not like them, but sometimes we have to link arms with people we don’t love to stop someone who is dangerous. Trump is starting to look like King Lear wandering the wilderness, raging at shadows, blaming everyone but himself.

He’s now threatening to revoke ABC’s FCC licenses, amplifying his chairman’s bizarre rants on Twitter, and even floating retaliation against Seth Meyers . This is authoritarianism 101.

This is the same guy who wanted a ballroom built for Mark Zuckerberg, wants invade Nigeria and Venezuela, refuses to give you healthcare, and is hiding files from the public.

What has he done for you?

What has he done for working families?

What has he done for America?

November 17: Trump Scrubs the Files, the Movement Splits, and Why I Might Run Again”

November 17: Trump Scrubs the Files, the Movement Splits, and Why I Might Run Again

Trump is scrubbing the Epstein files, and he’s doing it in plain sight. Something is off — and even members of his own movement can see it. The party is splitting. Marjorie Taylor Greene and others are already looking for the exits. And here’s the thing: we should welcome every single person who leaves that cult. If they want out — take them. That’s how movements grow.

Meanwhile, Trump is so desperate he’s catering to Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes, men who openly promote Holocaust rhetoric and white nationalist ideology. That’s not a fringe — that’s the direction of today’s Republican Party. The “Groyper” movement isn’t just online anymore — it’s at the table. And Trump is eating out of their hands.

Then I talk a bit about my own next steps — I floated the idea of running again, and I was honestly overwhelmed by your responses. They humbled me. They made me think maybe it is time. Maybe the only way to fight power is to step back into the arena. More on that soon.

Because at the end of the day, democracy doesn’t work if good people walk away — and I refuse to let this moment belong to fascists, opportunists, and cowards.

November 14: The Epstein Fallout, Healthcare Truths, and My Debate With Tony O.

November 14: The Epstein Fallout, Healthcare Truths, and My Debate With Tony O.

Today we dig deeper into the fallout from the Epstein files, which somehow get darker every time a new page drops. Disturbing references to “Bubba” — Bill Clinton? — and more connections that should embarrass every so-called leader who pretends this was just a “bad friendship.” And honestly, at this point, how anyone can still defend Trump after seeing his name in the emails is beyond comprehension. The excuses are gone. The rot is right there in black and white.

Then I have a conversation with Tony O. — whether I should ever run for office again. I’ve said a thousand times that I want to stay private. But when you see this much corruption, this much cowardice, this much damage… at some point the question becomes: If not us, who? So we debate what it means to step back in — or to help someone else do it.

We also get into a real healthcare debate: Is healthcare a human right, or should we keep pretending the private system works? I know where I stand. Tony pushes back. It’s heated, honest, and exactly what America should be talking about.

Finally, we look at Wayne Gretzky and his attempts to spin away his strange, disastrous relationship with Trump. Even the Great One can’t finesse this one — and watching him try tells you everything about the way powerful people bend themselves into pretzels to avoid saying the obvious truth.

A heavy episode. A needed one. And one that reminds us that silence serves the corrupt — never the people.

November 12: Trump in Epstein’s Emails & Calls High Prices a "Hoax"

November 12: Trump in Epstein’s Emails & Calls High Prices a "Hoax"


Today’s episode breaks down the bombshell: Trump appears in Jeffrey Epstein’s emails. You can dance around it, deny it, spin it, but you can’t hide it — this is one of the clearest, dirtiest connections yet. If you were in Epstein’s inner orbit, you were associating with a serial predator. There is no “normal” explanation for that. No amount of legal gymnastics changes reality.


Then we dive into Trump’s newest meltdown interview — where he claims high prices are a “hoax,” insists the economy is “great,” says American workers aren’t qualified for American jobs, and even floats 50-year mortgages like this is some kind of dystopian game show. It’s detached from reality, even by his standards.


We finish with a look at a few clips from my first congressional campaign — moments that made me laugh, and moments that reminded me why we must stay loud. They tried to silence me. They tried to chase me away. But I’m still here — and so are you.


Keep going. Keep fighting. Never let corruption and cruelty win by default.

November 10: Dear Lord — The Democrats Folded Again

November 10: Dear Lord — The Democrats Folded Again

The Democrats folded — again. And this time it was worse than usual. Why did we even pick this fight? For a vote we already had in our pocket? It’s unbelievable. You don’t walk onto the field, start a brawl, and then quit mid-swing. Last night was a total collapse. Historic. Embarrassing. We had Trump cornered, the narrative shifting our way — and the party managed to blow it in record time.

If this is what “leadership” looks like, then it’s time to start over. These corporate politicians need to be primaried, every last one of them. I never wanted to run for office again. I wanted to live a normal life. But maybe that’s not an option anymore. Maybe I run. Maybe I help yourun. Maybe we rebuild something real from the ground up.

Because here’s the truth: if we leave our future in the hands of people who fold at the first sign of pressure, we’re finished. Democracy doesn’t survive on caution. It survives on courage.

Get loud. Get serious. And stop pretending the old guard will ever save us.

November 7, 2025: The People vs. The Powerful — A New Politics Rising

November 7, 2025: The People vs. The Powerful — A New Politics Rising

Today we talk about the real political divide in America — not left versus right, but the people versus the powerful. Everyday Americans versus the billionaire class. The old guard of corporate politicians is fading, and the rise of leaders like Zohran Mamdani shows a shift toward a politics that actually speaks to working people, not just donors.

As Mamdani rises, Elon Musk pockets a trillion-dollar payday, a perfect symbol of how wildly tilted the system has become. We look at the collapse of Eric Adams — a true fiasco from start to finish — and the strange, self-interested emergence of Marjorie Taylor Greene as the newest so-called “reformer,” fueled less by principle and more by ambition.It’s a new era. The ground is shifting. America is waking up to who’s been calling the shots — and who’s been left holding the bill.🎧 The Nate McMurray Show — The Sound of Niagara. with special guest, Tony O!

November 3: Zohran Rising, Trump Raging, and JD on the Prowl

Zohran Mamdani is poised to win — and let’s hope he does, because every time a real progressive breaks through, the Democratic establishment panics and runs back to its corporate handlers.

Trump’s latest 60 Minutes meltdown, and JD Vance on the prowl — the self-styled moral crusader turned Erika Kirk consoler, trying to reinvent himself as the right’s romantic hero. It’s hypocrisy, hubris, and political theater rolled into one strange American show.

🎙️ Episode Title: Post-Halloween Sugar Crash: ICE Brutality, Kash Patel’s Jet Life, and the Billionaire Climate Circus


Date: November 1, 2025


Summary:

The candy’s gone, but the chaos stays. ICE is still smashing middle-aged moms’ faces into the ground. Kash Patel’s flying his 26-year-old girlfriend around the country like a celebrity — on government planes, no less. Bill Gates is “coping” with climate change , and the right wing’s salivating at the thought of jailing protestors again. But remember, Nick Fuentes is still out there — that same little gremlin trying to scare people who should just swat him away.

🎃 Episode: Happy Halloween — Oil Wars, AI Nightmares, and Dog-Shooting Politicians Date: October 31, 2025

🎃 Episode: Happy Halloween — Oil Wars, AI Nightmares, and Dog-Shooting Politicians


Date: October 31, 2025


Summary:

Happy Halloween. As the freaks and weirdos of our country take over — from Kash Patel to a dog-shooting Kristi Noem — we have to ask: are we really about to go to war in Venezuela? Dear Lord. Is this just another oil war built on lies? Didn’t we learn anything from the past twenty-five years? They don’t make fentanyl in Venezuela. The excuses for this war make Iraq look like a solid case.

Beyond that cursed thought, AI is on the rise — and it doesn’t look good for America or the world. Chinese factories are going dark as robotic tentacle machines churn out supplies for a future no one voted for.


Meanwhile, Kristi Noem’s dog-shooting scandal has resurfaced, while Hasan Piker faces a wave of online outrage over an alleged training incident with his dog — a reminder that in today’s media circus, outrage comes easier than truth, and Halloween isn’t the only time the monsters come out.


And as if that weren’t surreal enough, Katie Miller—wife of Stephen Miller—has gone full identity-politics on a talk show, railing against Cenk Uygur in a performance that felt more like a Halloween costume than a political argument. The woman tied to the man who once preached “color-blind nationalism” now panders to grievance and paranoia — proving that even the architects of outrage eventually drown in their own creation.

Summary:

In today’s episode, we ask a hard question: is the U.S. gearing up for another resource war — this time in Venezuela? Reports of increased military activity near the region raise concerns about motives behind American foreign policy. Venezuela holds the world’s largest oil reserves and significant rare earth elements — critical resources for global power and technology.

Meanwhile, at home, Trump is cutting food assistance programs while billions flow abroad to Argentina.

October 24, 2025: Steve Bannon, Third-Term Talk, Venezuela, and a New, Insane Trade War With Canada?

October 24, 2025
Steve Bannon, Third-Term Talk, Venezuela, and a New, Insane Trade War With Canada?
Steve Bannon is openly talking about plans that would bypass constitutional norms and keep Donald Trump back in power beyond the usual limits — rhetoric that should set off every alarm for anyone who believes in constitutional government. 
At the same time, the administration’s saber-rattling toward Venezuela has escalated into a major military buildup in the southern Caribbean — warships, strikes on supposed cartel targets, and Pentagon contingency planning have all been reported. Analysts say a full-scale invasion still looks unlikely, but make no mistake: the pressure is real and the risk of miscalculation is very high. 
And on the diplomatic/economic front, talks with Canada are collapsing — a dispute that has already produced threats of new tariffs and retaliatory measures. Trade tensions with our closest neighbor could quickly become another front in this administration’s show-of-force politics. 
We’ll break down:
• What Bannon’s rhetoric really means for the rule of law • What the U.S. posture toward Venezuela looks like — show of force vs. invasion — and why Maduro’s government is responding like a country that feels threatened. 
• How a tariff fight with Canada fits the overall playbook: outrage, economic pressure, and a willingness to weaponize trade.

In today’s episode, I have a wide-ranging, free-form discussion with congressional candidate Steve Holden about everything from the slow creep of authoritarianism to the future of rural Democrats — and what it all means for the fate of American democracy.

We talk about the realities on the ground: how small towns are changing, why people are losing faith in institutions, and how hope still survives when the odds are stacked against it.

Then, a brief return of the now-bearded financial expert and friend of Tony O. He’s back to share his take on markets, money, and whatever else is rattling around in that brilliant head of his.

🎙️ New Episode — October 21: “No Kings” and the Right-Wing Media Chokehold

really want to focus on what’s happening with the TikTok sale and the absolute chokehold the right wing is about to have on media and our elections.

There’s little we can do about it right now — but eventually, this has to be resolved. When Democrats get back in power — if we can, given the way our democracy is being reordered — we’ll need to act fast.

The good news? The No Kings protest was a complete success. People are waking up.


But what worries me most is Trump’s reaction — posting fantasies of dumping filth on people like it’s funny. That’s not political theater — that’s serial killer stuff. It tells you exactly where his mind is, and it should scare everyone.

Where is his real intent leading? That’s what we’ll talk about today.

(Your (almost) daily update from The Nate McMurray Show: The Sound of Niagara Podcast)


First off, sorry about the sound quality — I was working with some bad mics and had to piece this one together, but the message was too important not to share.

#NateMcMurrayShow #SoundOfNiagara #Podcast #FingerLakes #SouthBristol

#GetOutTheVote #LisaMoore #AlissaEllman #DiannaKastenbaum #ScottComegys

#Democracy #Grassroots #RuralPolitics #RunEverywhere #Hope #LocalPower

I was out in South Bristol this week for a Get Out the Vote event in the rural Finger Lakes. The place was buzzing — people from every walk of life, even a few MAGA folks — all focused on one thing: how to make their local communities stronger.


I spoke first with Lisa Moore, a South Bristol candidate bringing energy, empathy, and common sense to local leadership. Then I met Alissa Ellman, a congressional candidate and Army veteran from NY-24, who’s fighting for healthcare access, infrastructure, and working families.


Next was Dianna Kastenbaum, another NY-24 candidate and former small-business owner, focused on rebuilding local economies and restoring trust in government. And finally, Scott Comegys, who ran for State Senate District 54 and continues to champion working people, farmers, and the environment.


Here’s what I’ve always believed — and what these candidates prove: the way we fix America, and rebuild the Democratic Party, is by running good people everywhere. Even in the so-called “unwinnable” places. That’s how you rebuild hope, one community at a time.

🎙️ Episode 103 (October 17, 2025): Vance Defends White Supremacists, Ellison Builds a Police State

(Your (almost) daily update from The Nate McMurray Show: The Sound of Niagara Podcast)


JD Vance is defending the Incel Naz i group chat — these men who openly call themselves fascists and Nazis, yet recoil when you use the labels. He says they “don’t want to be called fascist or Nazi” even while embracing the ideology. That’s the most insidious kind of dishonesty: hiding behind words while letting actions speak hate.


Then there’s Larry Ellison, CEO of Oracle and major Trump backer, who’s quietly helping to build a police state. He’s advancing surveillance, pushing tech into systems that track and monitor our lives. The person who builds the system becomes the one who controls it — and Ellison’s role in this is something America should be watching, not ignoring.


Together, these stories aren’t disconnected. They show how fascism grows — through denial, through tech, through silence. And if we don’t confront it now, we’ll wake up in a country that looks like something from a dystopian novel.


We’ll talk about what we can do instead—how to call out the hypocrisy, how to resist, and how to rebuild institutions based on accountability, justice, and real equality.
