People should ask themselves, where was NASA before Elon Musk came along?

Where was the electric car industry before he came along?

I mean, he's revolutionized industries that we should be rooting for him to revolutionize.

Welcome to the Lost Debate, a show for political Ecclectics. I'm Robbie Gupta.

And I'm Corey Bradford. Well, Corey, you had a milestone this weekend. Yeah, I turned 30 this past

Friday. It was pretty cool. Your first, I guess, birthday in New York City? Yeah, it was my first

birthday in New York City other than the existential crisis. It was a pretty fun time. Went out,

had some drinks. It was nice. Well, as somebody who's nearing the end of my 30s, you have nothing to worry about. I think 30 is like the best time of your life, or at least comparing it to my other decade so far. Everybody keeps telling me that, but we'll see. Here's to a good decade for you. What do we have in the news? We got some interesting stuff coming up. Today, California Governor Newsom is playing political hardball with a new gun law that parallels

Texas's abortion law. Historic deadly tornadoes raise questions about climate change and workers' rights.

And Elon Musk, person of the year? Does he deserve that title? Robbie's going to give you his take

on how to fix student loan debt. And I'll round out the show with some of the serious bad takes from last week's top stories. But first things, first, some revelations about January

6th. Ravi, they had a committee in Congress about this, some hearings about this last night. And we got

some big, big revelations out of that. Yeah, as context, this is the January 6th commission. There

was, you know, a whole backstory about how this commission was created and like how most Republicans didn't participate in it. But a few Republicans are on this committee, including Liz Cheney, who's been a big critic of President Trump's handling of the January 6th incident. And the committee had been working with White House Chief of Staff or former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows to cooperate with the committee. And the committee had been working with White House Chief of Staff or former White House

Chief of Staff, Mark Meadows, to cooperate with the committee. And for a while, he was cooperating.

And as part of that, he turned over 10,000 plus pages of documents to the committee. And we're

starting to learn what we're in those documents, even though he stopped cooperating since we have access

to that information. And last night, Liz Cheney read from those documents, and particularly she read

some text messages that were sent from certain figures on the right, the day of the January 6th,

the riots. So let's see what Liz Cheney had to say. According to the records, multiple Fox News

hosts knew the president needed to act immediately. They texted Mr. Meadows, and he has turned over

those texts. Quote, Mark, the president needs to tell people in the Capitol to go home.
