It keeps us ad-free, editorially independent, and helps us grow. The right-wing power play marches on as co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman discuss: JD Vance plans to meet with heads of the DOJ Pam Bondi and Kash Patel to plot out the Epstein coup as Ghislaine Maxwell is quietly moved to a lower-security prison in Texas. Meanwhile, it appears key parts of the U.S. Constitution are being edited out on a Congressional website. We dig into this digital sleight of hand and what it might mean. Plus: Senator John Cornyn and the FBI seem to be escalating pressure on Texas Democrats, and new tariffs are coming online with serious economic consequences.

A Deer is looking at me. I'm here with Nick Halseman, in spirit. How are you doing, buddy? I'm doing well. I'm doing well. Fresh off of another appearance at the L at the LA Chargers training camp, which is always an interesting experience.
