The Chris Cuomo Project

Chris Cuomo uses the Met Gala as a jumping off point for a bigger argument about the midterms and the widening gap between those in power and the people they claim to represent. With Trump fumbling affordability, health care, and a war in Iran with no clear exit, Cuomo argues the opportunity to fight for working people has been handed to anyone willing to pick it up — and events like the Met Gala are proof that nobody in power seems ready to do it. His case isn't anti-rich or anti-fashion. It's that showing up in expensive outfits to celebrate among the elite — at an event sponsored by someone whose workers you claim to be fighting for — sends exactly the wrong signal at exactly the wrong moment. You can't bash the elitism and be the elitism at the same time. Cuomo also pushes back on the instinct to demonize the rich as a political strategy, arguing the real winning message is about fixing a system that doesn't make everyone play by the same rules — and reconnecting with the many instead of performing for the few.

Cameron Khansarinia (Chief of Staff to Reza Pahlavi, the exiled son of Iran’s last monarch and a leading figure among opposition groups) joins Chris Cuomo to break down whether regime change in Iran is actually possible — and what could come next. Khansarinia explains why he believes the current moment presents a real opportunity for change, arguing that many Iranians oppose the regime but lack the conditions to act. He outlines how opposition efforts are being organized, what role Reza Pahlavi is trying to play, and why some believe a transition is more realistic than it appears from the outside. Cuomo presses him on the biggest risks: whether the opposition is truly unified, what happens if the regime collapses, and whether outside pressure from the U.S. or Israel helps or complicates the situation. The conversation also explores how ordinary Iranians are experiencing the conflict — and how different that reality is from what Americans typically see.

Chris Cuomo reports from Israel as the war with Iran continues to escalate, offering a perspective that looks very different from the debate happening back in the United States. Cuomo explains why Americans are viewing the conflict primarily through politics and media narratives, while people in the region see it as an existential fight playing out in real time. He breaks down the competing motivations behind the war — from security fears and regional power struggles to domestic political optics in Washington. At the center of the debate is a question rarely asked in American coverage: who actually decides when this war ends? Cuomo examines the strategic calculations driving Israel, the messaging coming from the Trump administration, and how perception, politics, and power are shaping the conflict.

Chris Cuomo brings together key moments from this week’s Cuomo Mornings on SiriusXM, featuring conversations with former National Security Adviser John Bolton and Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY), along with calls from listeners reacting to America’s growing conflict with Iran.Bolton lays out why he believes regime change in Tehran is the only viable path to eliminating Iran’s nuclear threat and explains where he thinks the Trump administration’s political strategy has fallen short. Cuomo presses him on the risks of a power vacuum, the role of Kurdish groups inside Iran, and whether the U.S. has prepared for what comes after the regime.Lawler defends the administration’s decision to strike Iran, arguing the regime posed an untenable threat and that the president acted within his authority. Cuomo challenges him on congressional oversight, the risk of another long war in the Middle East, and what lawmakers were actually told in classified briefings.Callers also weigh in on the war, from veterans concerned about another Iraq-style conflict to listeners debating whether regime change is the right goal and what the real strategy should be moving forward.

Chris Cuomo opens with a blunt declaration: America is at war. He questions how we got here, what authority was used, and whether anyone in Washington can clearly define the objective or the exit strategy. If this is the biggest decision of the administration, what happens next — and who owns it? Mike Huckabee (U.S. Ambassador to Israel) joins Chris for a pointed conversation about the U.S.-Israel alliance and the growing fracture inside American politics over Israel and Iran. Huckabee responds to Tucker Carlson’s accusations that Israel is manipulating U.S. policy, addresses criticism over civilian casualties in Gaza, and argues that Iran poses a direct threat to the United States — not just Israel.

Chris Cuomo breaks down what Trump’s State of the Union actually revealed — and why the biggest takeaway wasn’t the applause lines or the outrage, but the absence of real solutions. Cuomo argues that beneath the pageantry and partisan theatrics was something far more consequential: a president who still doesn’t have workable answers on affordability, health care, economic pressure, or transparency. While the speech leaned heavily on symbolism, cultural flashpoints, and partisan contrast, Cuomo says the real test is simple — who has a plan that improves everyday life? He also critiques how Democrats responded, why performance politics won’t win the midterms, and why Abigail Spanberger’s rebuttal offered a clearer model for how to move forward.

Chris Cuomo brings together key moments from this week’s Cuomo Mornings on SiriusXM, featuring conversations with Michael Eric Dyson and Gary Vaynerchuk as the country reflects on the life and legacy of Reverend Jesse Jackson. Dyson shares personal stories from decades alongside Jackson, tracing his rise after Dr. King’s assassination, the Rainbow Coalition campaigns of 1984 and 1988, and the relentless activism that defined his final years. The discussion turns to who carries that mantle now and what leadership looks like in a moment many Americans feel is lacking it. Gary Vee joins to talk about the algorithm-driven culture shaping politics, outrage, and self-worth — and why accountability, mindset, and economic opportunity may matter more than partisan warfare. Cuomo pushes back on whether social media is neutral, how political primaries reward extremes, and whether Americans still know how to disagree without dehumanizing one another. Calls from listeners also take the conversation into the Epstein controversy, transparency, media credibility, and the danger of conspiracy culture replacing serious inquiry.
