Summary

This is a preview of the Patron-only Weekender episode. To gain full access to these episodes, as well as special post-event and live recordings, and to keep the show editorially independent and ad-free, head over to Patreon and become a subscriber today. Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman discuss how the markets were roiled as we all realized Donald Trump was actually going to go through with it. Their math wasn't math-ing as they came up with a ridiculous formula for each country, and the gross incompetence continues. Wisconsin elected a new Supreme Court justice and it just might have led to the beginning of Elon Musk's departure in an official role at the White House. Meanwhile, Senator Corey Booker made a stand on the Senate floor, eclipsing the record for longest speech and perhaps dropping a gauntlet for the Democrats
