Storming the Capital (with Abdul and JB)

In This Episode

Live from DC, Jon, Lovett, Tommy, Alex, and Dan break down all the latest news from the aftermath of Democrats’ huge wins on Tuesday, from JD Vance’s attempted break with Trump to what the incoming majorities’ top priorities should be. Senator-elect Abdul El-Sayed drops by to talk about standing up to Donald Trump, building consensus on saving Americans’ health care, and his eye-opening caffeine regimen. Then, Gov. JB Pritzker outlines a plan for standing up for working Americans, why Elon Musk’s millions didn’t get results, and why Democrats shouldn’t unilaterally disarm in the redistricting fight. Then, Pritzker joins the hosts for a round of Two Takes and a Fake, featuring the right’s most outrageous reactions to the blue tsunami.
