Summary

Welp… the Epstein meeting saga just keeps getting weirder. First, reports said top Trump officials were gathering to strategize damage control. Then JD Vance called it “fake news.” Now? Turns out it did happen after all. These people couldn’t keep their story straight if you stapled it to them. Meanwhile, in Texas, the redistricting fight is hitting a dangerous new level. Senator John Cornyn says the FBI will help track down Democratic lawmakers who left the state to block the vote. Legal? Constitutional? Sounds like a hard no, but apparently, that’s just a minor detail to the GOP. Tonight, the one and only Beto O’Rourke joins us to break it all down. From shady meetings to political manhunts, it’s a lot. Let’s get into it. This episode is sponsored by ZBiotics.
