This week, Rick Wilson dives into one of the ugliest political scandals in years — the Young Republican National Federation group chat that revealed a cesspool of hate, racism, and wannabe authoritarian cosplay. In thousands of leaked messages obtained by Politico, state-level GOP leaders joked about gas chambers, Hitler, slavery, and rape -- and revealed the moral rot at the core of a generation raised on grievance politics and Fox News. These aren’t fringe trolls — these are elected aides, campaign managers, and state chairs, the so-called “future” of the Republican Party. Rick unpacks how figures like Peter Giunta, Bobby Walker, Samuel Douglass, Brianna Douglass, Joe Maligno, Alex Dwyer, Annie Kaykaty, Luke Mosiman, William Hendrix, and others went from “rising stars” to radioactive cautionary tales faster than you can say “delete your chat.”

 Rick was told that this chat is the tip of the iceberg and that there's a "Legislative Staff Chat" in the House that's 100x worse. It's out there somewhere, so if anyone wants to leak it, you can contact [email protected].
