Summary

The FBI and Department of Energy now believe COVID was the result of a lab leak in China. Republicans are now running with this, claiming a liberal media conspiracy and cover-up. Are they right? We’ll talk about what we know, who screwed up, and point out a few inconvenient facts for the GOP. Biden’s student loan relief has landed in front of the Supreme Court. What can we glean from oral arguments? Is the relief program in trouble? Oh, and of course we have some GOP on GOP infighting, once again checking in with the ongoing imbroglio between DeSantis and Trump.
