The Tara Palmeri Show

Tara Palmeri opens the show with a deeply personal story about being threatened by Harvey Weinstein early in her journalism career—and explains how that experience shaped her reporting on powerful men. Then, joined by Stuart Stevens, she breaks down the fallout from Graham Platner's withdrawal from the Maine Senate race, Donald Trump's latest legal setback in the E. Jean Carroll case, and what these stories reveal about power, accountability, and politics.

Tara Palmeri is one of the most feared and fearless reporters covering power and politics. She has 15 years of experience covering national politics and foreign affairs. She was formerly a White House Correspondent for ABC News where she covered the first Trump administration. She was the chief National Correspondent for POLITICO during the Biden administration. She has been a political analyst for CNBC, CBS and CNN. She started her career as a columnist for the Washington Examiner and then went on to report for the New York Post. She was a foreign correspondent for POLITICO Europe, where she covered international affairs, including Brexit. She hosted the Ringer's political podcast "Somebody's Gotta Win" and wrote a column for Puck. Tara also hosted two acclaimed podcasts on Jeffrey Epstein, "Broken: Jeffrey Epstein" and "Power: The Maxwells." Tara currently hosts the Tara Palmeri Show.
