2487 - Economy Shrinks In Trump's First 100 Days; GOP War on Social Security w/ Martin O'Malley

The Majority Report with Sam Seder

The U.S. economy shrunk by 0.3% in the first quarter of 2025 according to the Commerce Department. That's a huge splash of cold water on the Trump administration's celebrations marking his first 100 days in office. In addition to that, Trump gave an interview to ABC News last night where he acknowledges he could bring Kilmar Abrego Garcia back from El Salvador if he wanted to, seemingly flouting the Supreme Court's order to do just that. So what is Chuck Schumer up to? He's put out a video literally clapping back against the administration's planned tax on cars. Great to see he's always on point!

Sam is joined by Biden's former Social Security administrator Martin O'Malley, who has been raising the alarm about Republicans' assault on his former agency in a variety of ways.

In the Fun Half, Sam look at more clips from Trump's 100 day celebrations, including a chilling moment at a rally in Michigan where Trump plays footage of prisoners in El Salvador's prison are paraded around for the cameras and have their heads shaved. The crowd chants U-S-A in response. Trump also apparently believes that the photoshopped version of Kilmar Abrego Garcia's hands with the letters MS13 imposed on them is a real photograph, and insists as much in his interview with ABC's Terry Moran. Meanwhile, Tim Pool tries to dispel what the right has come to call the "Maryland Man Hoax," which is the way they try to distract people from paying attention to the very real injustices at play in Abrego Garcia's deportation and imprisonment.
