Summary

Meghan opens with a family update on Cindy McCain and reacts to the return of Israeli hostages. Then former Biden White House comms chief of staff Yemisi Egbewole joins to dissect the Katie Porter viral clips, why Democrats keep losing the message war, and what a winning platform looks like (hint: focus on the monthlies - housing, food, utilities). They hit Spanberger vs. Winsome Sears, the Jay Jones text scandal, AIPAC tensions, and 2026. Plus: the pop-culture cool-down... Trudeau & Katy Perry, J.Lo’s musical misfire, and Denzel stories from the White House.
