The Kultgens dig into Donald Trump's first 100 days back in office—and it’s been a wild ride. From a record-shattering 143 executive orders to the creation of a $500,000 pay-to-play club in D.C., we break down what’s happening behind the headlines.

🎙️ Topics include:

• Why the stock market is tanking
• Trump’s broken promises on Ukraine and Gaza
• Immigration crackdowns and ICE raids on U.S. citizens
• The AI “Pope Trump” image (yes, really)
• The secretive Executive Branch club for rich elites
• Trump's attempt to punish a law firm—blocked by a federal judge
• Amazon backing down on tariff transparency after a Trump call
• And… Trump’s response to kids not getting toys this year: “Two dolls instead of 30.”

💥 We ask the big questions:

• Is this what success looks like?
• Should anyone be able to buy access to the president?
• How bad do things have to get before MAGA voters reconsider?

PLUS: We lighten the mood with this week’s “Simmer Down” segment, where each of us shares a personal moment of pride. Because even in chaos, you have to celebrate the wins.

This week on The Necessary Conversation, the Kultgen family dives into some of the most shocking headlines yet from Trump's second term. We cover Trump's unprecedented attack on the judiciary after the arrest of Judge Hannah Dugan, Pete Hegseth’s second Signal security scandal, Elon Musk’s messy exit from DOGE as Tesla crumbles, and Trump's new war on higher education. Plus, we break down the humanitarian disaster unfolding in El Salvador after mass deportations — and why Trump refused federal aid to tornado-ravaged Arkansas, even turning his back on longtime ally Sarah Huckabee Sanders.

Topics include:

• Trump's authoritarian moves against judges
• Hegseth's classified leak scandal (again)
• Elon Musk abandoning government promises to save Tesla
• Trump's student loan crackdown and Harvard's lawsuit
