| 0:00.0 | Lemonada. |
| 0:02.0 | This is Sarah Stewart Holland. |
| 0:16.0 | This is Beth Silvers. You're listening to Pantsuit Politics. |
| 0:19.0 | In the midst of what has been a really difficult month, we are hearing from so many of you that you want our elected representatives to know how frustrated you are. And we are really delighted to be joined today by Senator Andy Kim, who is clearly one of those elected representatives who's listening |
| 0:38.4 | to people. So we had a great conversation with him about how to be effective when you're calling |
| 0:44.1 | your representatives. He speaks to those of you in red states who wonder if it's worth |
| 0:48.9 | communicating with your elected officials. We talk about his overall philosophy about this administration, how he thinks |
| 0:55.7 | Democrats need to build a movement that really counters the MAGA movement. And then he sticks with us |
| 1:01.1 | for outside of politics where he talks about movies and music and his family. And overall, |
| 1:07.2 | this conversation gave me a lot of hope that I needed this week, and I hope it'll do the same for you. |
| 1:12.4 | We'd love for you to take one minute, literally just one minute, and answer five questions for us in our listener survey. |
| 1:17.4 | Our team is meeting next week to do some planning and prioritizing, and we want input from all of you. |
| 1:22.9 | The survey is linked in the show notes and on our website, PansuPoliticshow.com. |
| 1:26.5 | It really is just five questions, guys. |
| 1:28.3 | We'll take you about one minute. Thank you so much for taking a precious minute of your life to share |
| 1:33.9 | your thoughts on the show with us. We really appreciate it. It really was grounding to talk to Senator Kim. |
| 1:40.5 | We also spent the spicy bonus episode of Pantsu Politics yesterday, processing a lot of the chaos, |
| 1:47.5 | so we could have this grounding conversation with Senator Kim today. |
| 1:50.6 | So if you want to hear our thoughts on all the developments since Tuesday, and there have been quite a few, |
| 1:57.8 | you're going to want to check out our bonus episode over on Substack. |
| 2:14.1 | Senator Ken, thank you so much for joining us for fancy politics. We're really thrilled that you're here and that we were able to make this happen. Yeah, thanks for having me. I'm really excited. We have spent a lot of time over the past couple of weeks just processing the emotion that we feel watching ICE and Customs and Border Patrol operate in communities throughout the interior |
| 2:35.7 | of our country. And I'm really glad that you're here because I don't want to get stuck there. |
