Summary

This is a preview of The Weekender edition of the Muckrake Podcast. Please go to our ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to gain access to the regular Weekender episodes on Fridays. Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman dive into the brewing feud between Elon Musk and Donald Trump, unpacking what their falling out says about the current state of politics in general. Then they turn to the Democrats—some of whom seem eager to welcome Musk back into the fold—and debate whether that’s a savvy move or political malpractice (hint: the latter).

We are now in the beginnings of June.
