Hello and welcome to the Bullwark podcast.

I'm your host to Miller.

Delighted welcome back to the show, co-host of The View, political commentator for CNN.

She used to work for Trump and

Mike Pence and some other people. It's Alyssa, Farah Griffin. What's going on? How are you doing? It's been too long. I know. It's so good to see you. I am literally your biggest listener. I don't think I've missed a pod since the last time I was on, which was like well over a year and a half ago. Yeah, why has it been so long? And you should be giving me some negative feedback then. I mean, I can't be nailing it every day. So honest, I was going to tell you this off air, but my husband and I got together with new neighbors. And you know, you're trying to like feel out, like sniff out who they are, what they're into. And my husband's more delicate than me. So he's like,

so what, like, what are you listening to any good podcasts? And the guy says the bulwark. And I was like, we found our people. I love that. You'd say Candace Owens and be tough. We're going to get to Candice. Well, why we're glazing each other a little bit. I guess you guys played a clip of the Olivia Knitze podcast on The View.

Now, I'm working during the day

during the view.

So I'm, We're glazing each other a little bit. I guess you guys played a clip of the Olivia Nutsi podcast on The View.

Now, I'm working during the day during the View. So, you know, I'm watching you guys via clips only. It's nothing but love. But, you know, that's just life. I don't think anyone under 50 listens watches other than through clips. I was going to say, though, my mother's friends, when you played that clip, my mother said her phone was exploding.

10, 11 texts from her friends about just my face appearing on the view so thank you for that we have to make it

your not first official appearance though we've got to have you on in some way and like the flesh

you just let me know and you're having a baby we're to just do this first too then we'll do politics

i am seven months pregnant and if i'm out of breath, sweating, then cold, then cranky, like all of the things are happening right now. But I'm so excited. I would have to guess three months. You're looking great. I like to shoot from here up. I think we're going to have a happy podcast, which is out of character.

But there's just been a lot of setbacks for MAGA over the past couple days.

The loss for Trump and the gerrymandering fight in Indiana is something I want to spend quite a bit of time on.

They proposed some new maps that would have taken the state from being a 7-2 split with seven Republican congressional

seats and two Democratic congressional seats to a 9-0 absurd gerrymander that would have given

Democrats no representation at all in Indiana.

And the Republican state Senate rejected it.

I think it's the most consequential setback for Trump within the party,

you know, at least our pushback within the party since really Athensberger and Kemp
