Is America really getting the full truth from leaders on both sides of the aisle?
On this hard-hitting episode of the Tara Palmeri Show, veteran Republican strategist Erin Maguire (formerly Erin Perrine), who served as Trump's deputy communications director and press secretary to Speaker Kevin McCarthy, faces off against Democrat strategist Michael LaRosa, former press secretary to Jill Biden and top aide to Nancy Pelosi. These Washington insiders, who have spent years defending power, go head-to-head on presidential transparency about health, foreign policy blunders like Afghanistan and the narco boat incidents, economic handling through tariffs and stimulus, immigration raids, the Epstein files controversy, midterm positioning, and the road to 2028.
Which party is truly misleading the public on the biggest issues facing the country today?
