Did Trump's Supreme Court Rig the Midterms?
Summary
Dan Pfeiffer and guest Alex Wagner discuss Trump’s baseless indictment of Jim Comey over a seashell post and the FCC’s retaliatory review of Jimmy Kimmel’s license. They cover Pete Hegseth’s defensive testimony on the Iran war, Jerome Powell’s refusal to leave the Fed, and Trump’s obsession with a White House ballroom. The episode also analyzes a Supreme Court ruling weakening the Voting Rights Act and Maine Governor Janet Mills dropping her Senate bid.
