Okay. Happy Monday. Welcome to another episode of the Chuck Toddcast. I have a fascinating guest today that I think you're going to be very interested in hearing from. It's Democratic Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett from Dallas. My guess is, if you haven't heard an interview of her, then, and you've only seen clips,

you may have drawn a conclusion about her based on snippets, based on social media,

based on a TikTok, based on this.

Well, here's what you're going to get today. You're going to get 40 plus

minutes getting to know the Congresswoman. This isn't going to be short snippets and soundbites and

all of that. And I just have a feeling that if you have not had spent a long time listening to her and just have a sort of quick take,

hot take about her, after you listen to this interview, you will file those hot takes where they

belong, which is probably somewhere in the garbage.

Anyway, the point is, I think you'll learn a lot.

And listen to the conversation through the premise. And I'm going to have a couple of

conversations over the next week about this because she's, she's making one recommendation

of how Democrats should deal with this current moment. I'm going to have Rokana on. He's going to

make another, he's going to have another take. You've heard other Democrats make their take. And that's, there really is an interesting debate that is happening. You're going to see it, I think, over the next couple of years, frankly, through in the run up to the eventual actual start of the presidential primary campaign on the Democratic side. But of just what tactic is

better? Do you need to be Trump light? Do you need to be, you know, a bit hot, if you will,

on social media? Or is this a time to actually zag just as Trump is zicking? But before I get to that, I think we should talk about the week ahead that we're going to have in politics and where the news is going to be made.

President Trump is going overseas.

It's his first official overseas trip, even though he actually took one to the Pope's funeral.

That was an unplanned.

This was the plan.

And just like he did in his first term, he decided to make

Saudi Arabia his first stop. And the relationship that he has developed with Saudi Arabia and

UAE and Qatar is quite close. And he's, let's just be honest, he's blurring the lines between public and private in a way that, that, that it's, it's not even subtle, right?
