This is an I-Heart podcast.

Hi, I'm Molly JongFast, and this is Fast Politics, where we discuss the top political

headlines with some of today's best minds and restaurant reservations in the District

of Columbia have dropped 30% since Donald Trump's authoritarian takedown of the city.

We have such a great show for you today.

As the world churns, Andy Levy stops by to talk about Trump's authoritarian attack on

the rule of law and America as we know it.

Then we'll talk to California Governor Gavin Newsom about how he is fighting back against Trump and fighting back against Texas' insane gerrymander.

But first we have the stories the media is missing.

So, Molly, you know, they always say this about democracy, that you have to make the rules so you defend somebody who you don't like and you don't agree with. Oh, man, it's really going to be tough. It's time to defend John Bolton, Bali. Here's the truth. John Bolton sucks. Okay, we can all agree. That guy sucks. He's obnoxious. He's annoying. He's never met a war. He does not want to send your sons and

daughters to die in. He has a ridiculous mustache. He's sanctimonious. He's how we got here. John Bolton is

as much how we got here as anyone. That said, he should not be targeted by Trump's FBI. Let me

explain to you what's happening here. Okay, because I think it's really important.

Donald Trump, this DOJ, serves at the pleasure of Donald Trump.

Pam Bondi is like Ivanka.

She works for her dad.

And now here we are.

So Pam Bondi, J.D. Vance.

And by the way, when confronted about this, J.D. Vance did not say, oh, we are. So Pam Bondi, J.D. Vance. And by the way, when confronted about this, J.D. Vance

did not say, oh, we are not connected to the Justice Department, the way that a normal

vice president would say in a normal administration. No, he did not say that. You know what he said?

Tell me.
