Summary

Don sits down with Michael Cohen to break down the news of the day starting with MAGA’s Olympic-level hypocrisy over Texas Democrats leaving the state. (Reminder: Mike Johnson literally sent the House home to avoid an Epstein vote. But sure, tell us more about “doing your job.”) They also dig into the state of Democratic messaging, why it so often feels scattered, and what it’s going to take for the party to get on the same page heading into the next election. Nothing is off limits, hypocrisy will be called out, receipts will be shown. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
