Today's presenting sponsor of Simply Safe Home Security. No one wants to imagine their home getting broken into. But the scary statistic is that every 26 seconds in the U.S., a family experience is a break-in. Scary, yes, but that's why SimplySafe has worked to make home security accessible to more American families. I've set up as Simply Safe. It's very easy to do. The customer support was great, gives you peace of mind. Plus, the app is really easy to use and works great. Had a great experience.

Traditionally, security systems only take action after someone has already broken in. That's too

late. SimplySafe's active guard outdoor protection can help prevent break-ins before they happen.

AI-powered cameras backed by live professional monitoring agents. Monitor your property and detect

suspicious activity. If someone is lurking around or acting suspiciously, those agents can see and talk to them in real time, activate spotlights, and even contact the police all before they ever have a chance to get inside your home. No long-term contracts or cancellation fees. Monitoring plans start affordably at around $1 per day, 60-day satisfaction guarantee or your money back. Name best home security systems by U.S. News and World Report five years in a row, ranked number one in customer service among home security providers by both Newsweek and USA Today. And right now, our listeners can get 50% off their new SimplySafe system with professional monitoring and their first month free at SimplySafe.com slash crooked. That's simply safe.com slash crooked. There's no safe, like simply safe. Welcome to Pod Save America. I'm John Faber.

I'm John Lovett.

On today's show, we're going to talk about Cash Patel's Make a Wish Trip to Pound Beers with the U.S. men's hockey team.

Donald Trump's saying he's suffering for all of us while raising our taxes and potentially launching a war with Iran,

which maybe he'll try making the case for during tonight's state of the union,

which he promises will be long.

That's just a, what a, what a preview.

We'll also talk about what to expect from the big speech and all the different ways

Democrats are planning to respond and pre-spond, pre-but,

post-butt. Then our pales, Simone Sanders Townsend and Eugene Daniels of MS Now, stop by to talk

with Lovett about their new podcast, Clock It, the upcoming Texas Senate primary, and more.

And a reminder, if you want even more Pod Save America, more politics, more laughs with all your

favorite, and I guess some of your least favorite, too, there's got to be some least favorite.
