Summary

Elon Musk’s new rules for Twitter have allowed Covid misinformation back on the platform, as well as previously-banned users like Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene. Elsewhere in the GOP, MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell is throwing his hat in the ring for chairman of the Republican National Committee. And John Krasinski stops by for a three-part interview that kicks off with a chat about his young children who are just starting to watch the series that made him a star, “The Office.” Stick around for the rematch of the century when Stephen challenges John to an epic arm-wrestling match, and check out the new season of his Prime Video series, “Jack Ryan,” premiering December 21st.
