Summary
Canadian truckers hold a protest against vaccine mandates, as Tucker Carlson and other Republicans get involved. Brian interviews Al Franken about whether he’d run again for office, how much the Democrats should focus on January 6 ahead of midterms, and how much messaging should be taken into consideration when Democrats run candidates. And Michigan law professor Leah Litman joins to discuss the Supreme Court blocking Alabama from creating a second Black majority district and the raft of bounty laws sprouting up across the country after the court allowed Texas’ bounty law to stand.
