Ever since the Ringside Politics program started 25 years ago, we have enjoyed an annual tradition. During Thanksgiving week, we announce our “Turkey of the Year” winner. Our previous award recipients have included both celebrities and politicians, as well as Republicans and Democrats.

Our 2023 winner was Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, the worst cabinet member of a failed administration. He inherited a secure border but created chaos by removing President Donald Trump’s successful policies.
