Mamdani’s Big Night (“Vote Blue No Matter Who”)

Sorry for the misinformation!The boys break down the massive wins for progressives and Mamdani’s political movement in NYC. Republicans and Democrats alike are NOT happy about what transpired Tuesday night, and we cover all of the biggest reactions. From Jaime Harrison to Jesse Watters to other establishment Democrats, there is no cope not analyzed and no seethe unmade-fun of. What does this mean for the future of the party, can a progressive win in a swing state, and will moderate Democrats ever give Progressives their flowers? Tune in to find out answers to these questions and so much more!Trevor Project Fundraiser!: https://headintheoffice.com/ Early access on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/headintheofficepodSubstack: https://headintheoffice.substack.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4iJ-UcnRxYnaYsX_SNjFJQSubscribe to second channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3UoTN328OA7fK2dzicP-ZATikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@headintheoffice?lang=enInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/headintheoffice/Twitter: https://twitter.com/headintheofficeThreads: https://www.threads.com/@headintheofficeDiscord: https://discord.gg/hito Collab inquiries: [email protected](0:00) Centrist election cope(5:20) Intro(7:40) ELECTION WATCH: DSA takes New York(1:00:45) ELECTION WATCH: Michigan(1:15:50) Extras: Iran, political prosecution, SCOTUS(1:20:50) Reviews/endingSeen on this episode:Election watch - https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2026/us/elections/results-new-york-primary.html https://www.nytimes.com/2026/06/23/nyregion/new-york-primary-campaign-spending.html https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2026-election/haley-stevens-elon-musk-critic-keeps-spacex-pac-money-key-michigan-sen-rcna351252 https://x.com/PatrickSvitek/status/2064313280869335317 https://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/5938488-letitia-james-mamdani-endorsements/

Never Translate a Ben Gvir Tweet & Never Let JD Vance Negotiate

The Art of the Deal
Trump lost the Iran war BIGLY, and the boys are here to break down the surrender and laugh about how funny it is. The 14-point memorandum of understanding went public on Wednesday and includes a complete end to the war on all fronts, including Lebanon, a $300 billion investment fund for the rebuilding of Iran, and unfreezing up to $167 Billion in Iranian assets. Trump flip-flopped on ballistic missiles and nuclear enrichment for civilian reasons, saying it would be unfair not to let Iran do it if their neighbors get to. The question hanging over everyone's heads is whether or not the deal will hold, considering Israel continues to strike Lebanon and says publicly that they will not pull out. Stay for the end where the HITO boys clown on Peter Thiel's secret society and the people involved in it, thanks to a new WIRED article.

The Dumbest War in U.S. History & Democrats’ AI Data Center Debacle
Does anyone know what is in this deal?! Sunday evening, the US and Iran signed (?) an agreement that would supposedly open the Strait of Hormuz and end the US naval blockade. The deal supposedly ends hostilities and opens parties up to negotiate on Iran's nuclear future over the 60-day period. What else is in the deal? No one knows! Will the deal hold up? Probably not! All parties involved in the negotiations said ending the war in Lebanon was part of the deal, yet Israel is still committed to their invasion. Stay tuned for the end, where the HITO men talk about the proliferation of data centers across the country, and what Democrats like Gretchen Whitmer aren't doing to stop them.

100+ Days of War With Iran (We Are Going Crazy)
It's been over 100 days of war with Iran and everyone is lying! Countries are lying about ceasefires, investors are believing them (WHY??), and Donald Trump is saying he never promised no new wars.

Is Graham Platner the Most Electable Man in World History?
This week, Graham Platner finds himself embroiled in yet another controversy that probably won't have electoral consequences. Amid the controversy, the HITO boys reflect on the state of the Maine senate race, the Democratic party’s strategy writ large, and the motivations behind most of the anti-Platner forces. On the Iran war side of things, on Monday, negotiations completely broke down as state-affiliated Iranian news announced Iran would close the Strait of Hormuz and no longer consider talks while Israel continues its operations in Lebanon and Gaza. The boys also cover protests outside of Delaney Hall, an ICE detention center in New Jersey, where detainees are doing a hunger strike.Trevor Project fundraiser: https://headintheoffice.com/ Early access on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/headintheofficepodSubstack: https://headintheoffice.substack.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4iJ-UcnRxYnaYsX_SNjFJQSubscribe to second channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3UoTN328OA7fK2dzicP-ZATikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@headintheoffice?lang=enInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/headintheoffice/Twitter: https://twitter.com/headintheofficeThreads: https://www.threads.com/@headintheofficeDiscord: https://discord.gg/hito Collab inquiries: [email protected](0:00) Susan Collins blames veterans for their own deployment(5:40) Intro(9:30) Iran War CONTINUES(26:20) Graham Platner controversies(54:18) Delaney Hall & Massive anti-ICE protests(1:09:05) Reviews/endingSeen on this episode:Delaney Hall hunger strike - https://www.reuters.com/pictures/protests-outside-newark-ice-facility-hunger-strike-inside-continues-2026-05-28/ https://www.cnn.com/2026/05/25/us/new-jersey-ice-facility-protests https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/may/30/protests-ice-immigration-detention-center-new-jersey https://tracreports.org/immigration/quickfacts/https://www.cnn.com/2026/05/29/us/ice-protests-new-jerseyIran war - https://www.cnbc.com/2026/06/01/iran-us-negotiations-strait-of-hormuz.htmlhttps://www.nbcnews.com/world/lebanon/israel-captures-key-lebanon-site-crossing-litani-river-rcna347732Platner - https://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/30/us/politics/graham-platner-maine-senate-texts.htmlhttps://www.politico.com/news/2026/05/30/platners-campaign-sexual-texts-00943720?utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=dlvr.it

President Netanyahu & the End of Liberal Democracy
The HITO boys talk about the Benjamin Netanyahu interview with 60 Minutes, where he outflanked Democrats from the left on the issue of US funding for Israel, and discussed a host of other Iran war-related news. Domestically, southern states were quick to disenfranchise black voters as soon as possible through gerrymandering after the Supreme Court functionally dismantled the Voting Rights Act. The Virginia Supreme Court also stepped in to stop a citizen-approved gerrymander, which would have countered the Republican redistricting across the country, on nonsense procedural grounds. Lastly, the boys return to Michigan to discuss a $5 million dark money campaign to force us to listen to ads in support of Haley Stevens (D-Tel Aviv).Early access on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/headintheofficepodSubstack: https://headintheoffice.substack.com/HITO Merch: https://headintheoffice.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4iJ-UcnRxYnaYsX_SNjFJQSubscribe to second channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3UoTN328OA7fK2dzicP-ZATikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@headintheoffice?lang=enInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/headintheoffice/Twitter: https://twitter.com/headintheofficeThreads: https://www.threads.com/@headintheofficeDiscord: https://discord.gg/hito Collab inquiries: [email protected](0:00) Netanyahu outflanks the Democrats(7:55) Intro/announcement(32:55) Dark money & the MI Senate race(43:30) Iran/Lebanon/Israel updates & more Netanyahu interview(1:07:20) Reviews/endingSeen on this episode:Gerrymandering & its discontents - https://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/08/us/politics/virginia-redistricting-supreme-court.html Israel & Lebanonhttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/09/world/middleeast/israel-strikes-lebanon-ceasefire.htmlhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gL2jFwZ16xoDark money & the Michigan Senate Race - https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/politics/2026/05/09/haley-stevens-mystery-group-aipac-spending-5-million-senate-primary/90008526007/?gnt-cfr=1&gca-cat=p&gca-uir=true&gca-epti=z116749p119850l003950c119850e1167xxv116749d--46--b--46--&gca-ft=205&gca-ds=sophi

Former President Obama wants a “loyal” Republican Party… whatever that means! Also, the war with Iran is still on, and the administration is finding the most childish, inane ways possible to dodge responsibility and continue to hold the world hostage with this pointless conflict. Another Kash Patel story has hit the timeline, this time about his personalized bottles of whiskey, Kamala Harris has called for the release of the DNC autopsy, and Mallory McMorrow backed out of another interview.

Everything is Expensive (RIP Spirit Airlines) & SCOTUS Roundup
Conservatives continue to be incredibly unserious. Instead of getting us out of an unnecessary war with Iran, they’re posting fanfic and corny slop on the White House Twitter account. The Iran war rages on! And the boys are here to cover it. They also take time to cover the upcoming and already delivered decisions of this SCOTUS term with devastating implications for how many political ads we might be seeing in the near future. Ken Martin continues to be in the news, but this time it's for chatter about him losing his position as DNC chair.

The Anti-Hasan Bill & Ken Martin’s Terrible Interview
Hasan derangement syndrome is at an all-time high! A new bipartisan bill was introduced in CONGRESS to condemn Twitch streamer Hasan Piker for his critiques of Israel. The HITO boys also check in with DNC chair Ken Martin who sat down with Jon Favreau from Pod Save America to lie about why he's hiding the 2024 election autopsy. Also, the boys touch on the horrible SCOTUS decision that finally gutted the Voting Rights Act as well as a roundup of Iran news. Later, Abraham Aiyash, candidate for Michigan’s 1st State Senate district and democratic socialist, joins the show to discuss money in politics, the Michigan Democratic Convention, the party’s inability to reckon with foreign policy failures, the uncommitted movement, and more.

Trump Survives White House Correspondents' Dinner Attempt
The boys discuss the very, very real assassination attempt at the White House Correspondents' Dinner. Many people are saying this could have been a false flag in order to manufacture consent for Trump's White House ballroom, and the coincidences keep piling up! Dana Bash capitulates to right-wing framing when she asks if this happened because Democrats say “Trump is bad for the country,” prompting the HITO boys to dissect the double standard between right-wing criticism of Democrats and vice versa. Listen until the end for updates on the Iran war and the situation with Tucker Carlson!Early access on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/headintheofficepodSubstack: https://headintheoffice.substack.com/HITO Merch: https://headintheoffice.com/ Get 40% off Ground News: https://ground.news/checkout/all?fpr=headintheoffice YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4iJ-UcnRxYnaYsX_SNjFJQSubscribe to second channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3UoTN328OA7fK2dzicP-ZATikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@headintheoffice?lang=enInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/headintheoffice/Twitter: https://twitter.com/headintheofficeThreads: https://www.threads.com/@headintheofficeDiscord: https://discord.gg/hito Collab inquiries: [email protected](0:00) Kash Patel gets cheated on(2:40) Intro(4:40) White House Correspondents Dinner chaos(51:35) Iran & Lebanon updates(58:10) Tucker Carlson's phony apology(1:07:00) Ending/reviewsSeen on this episode:White House Correspondents' Dinner - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/watch-live-trump-attends-white-house-correspondents-dinner-for-1st-time-as-presidenthttps://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/26/us/politics/correspondents-dinner-shooting-suspect-california-man.htmlhttps://www.nytimes.com/live/2026/04/26/us/correspondents-dinner-shooting-trumphttps://nypost.com/2026/04/26/us-news/read-whcd-gunman-cole-allens-full-anti-trump-manifesto/https://www.threads.com/@aaron.rupar/post/DXmOsF-iYNP/mediaIran updates - https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/26/world/middleeast/iranian-negotiators-set-to-return-to-pakistan-to-try-to-revive-truce-talks.html https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/26/world/middleeast/iran-united-states-israel-war-truce.html https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/25/world/middleeast/lebanon-israel-cease-fire.html

ABOUT THIS SHOW
On Head in the Office, two big-time political gurus, Jeremy & Gage, dissect the weekly news and offer a leftist point of view on recent events. As society flirts with fascism, perpetuates massive inequality, and protects the most privileged, Head in the Office examines why our political systems seem to never function properly and are so terrible all the time through comedy and charming commentary. New episodes every Wednesday and Friday at noon. Early access on Patreon: www.patreon.com/headintheofficepod
