Summary
John reflects on the Republicans of yesterday compared to today and how the MAGA minions are doing exactly what they are told by closing the book on Liz Cheney. He then discusses the new climate bill and interviews Jamal Raad who is the co-founder and executive director of Evergreen Action which strives for a clean energy economy. Next John and Chris discuss Mike Pence's defense of the FBI after the Mar-a-Lago search and the possibility of Pence testifying before the January 6 committee. And finally he takes a call from Ben in Houston on Trump in the past and MAGA-lomaniacs of the future.
