Kander and Gupta also dive into Trump’s revived push to acquire Greenland, unpacking Marco Rubio’s closed-door comments, NATO alarm, and the administration’s refusal to rule out military force. Plus, they discuss new scrutiny over Epstein-related DOJ delays, fresh data showing young men souring on Trump, escalating GOP infighting, and renewed attempts to rewrite the history of January 6.

Ravi Gupta breaks down Donald Trump’s retaliatory veto of a bipartisan water bill after Lauren Boebert supported releasing the Epstein files, revealing how far Trump will go to punish perceived disloyalty. He examines new reporting on Trump’s private threats—“my friends will get hurt”—as the Justice Department reviews millions of newly uncovered Epstein documents and cracks widen inside MAGA. Ravi also dives into escalating right-wing infighting, media chaos, and Trump’s sinking approval as even conservatives warn his obsession with retribution is backfiring. Plus, he unpacks new data on crime, the economy, public dissatisfaction, and why America’s real story looks nothing like Trump’s narrative.

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down the Republican revolt that forced a vote on extending Obamacare subsidies, as four GOP lawmakers joined Democrats on a discharge petition to prevent premiums from doubling for millions of Americans. They analyze the political fallout for House Republicans in swing districts, Speaker Mike Johnson’s failed negotiations, and the looming deadline that could leave 22 million people facing higher health care costs. Kander and Gupta also dive into a wave of national turmoil, from mass shootings and rising antisemitism among young Americans to chaos and incompetence inside Trump’s law enforcement leadership and explosive reactions to Trump’s own rhetoric.

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down Trump’s chaotic attempt to rebrand the economy as he mocks “affordability,” confuses inflation with deflation, and delivers a meandering Pennsylvania rally full of distortions. They examine how Americans view Trump’s economic record compared to the end of the Biden presidency and why his messaging isn’t matching voters’ lived experiences. Kander and Gupta also dig into Trump’s $12 billion farm bailout sparked by his own tariffs, and the criticism that foreign competitors—not American farmers—benefited most. They explore Trump’s push for a sweeping national AI rule to override state protections, as well as his surprising reversal on advanced chip exports to China. Plus, they look at Miami’s first Democratic mayor in decades, the GOP’s internal fight over Obamacare subsidies, and escalating MAGA infighting heading into 2026.

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down Trump’s latest spiral after posting 160 times on Truth Social and then appearing to fall asleep in a cabinet meeting. They examine the escalating “Double Tap” scandal, from Pete Hegseth’s shifting explanations to sharp criticism from Megyn Kelly, Brit Hume, Marco Rubio, and Rand Paul as Republicans contradict themselves in real time. The hosts also dig into Trump’s shocking pardon of former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernández and his commutation of private-equity CEO David Gentile, highlighting the uproar over freeing major drug traffickers and white-collar criminals. Kander and Gupta then turn to the National Guard shooting involving an Afghan asylee, breaking down the rigorous vetting process, the mental-health failures that followed, and why this was a support-system breakdown rather than an immigration failure.

Jason Kander and Stephen Webber break down the controversy surrounding the emerging “Trump peace plan” for Ukraine, as reports reveal it began as a Russian wish list before being reshaped by the Trump administration. They discuss Ukraine’s tentative buy-in, the looming fight over territorial concessions, and the backlash to leaked audio of Trump ally Steve Witkoff coaching a Russian counterpart on how to sway Trump. Kander and Webber also look at the escalating dispute over illegal orders, Marjorie Taylor Greene’s abrupt retirement, growing GOP turmoil on Capitol Hill, and new warnings from Steve Bannon about Trump’s AI agenda. Plus, they touch on the dismissals of the Comey and McCabe cases and Harry Enten’s view that Democrats won the shutdown fight.

Ravi Gupta and Stephen Webber break down Congress’s explosive vote to release the Epstein files as Trump abruptly reverses course at the last minute, raising questions about whether compromising material is being withheld. They analyze accusations from Mark Epstein that the files are already being scrubbed, Rep. Thomas Massie’s threat to read names on the House floor, and the sweeping disclosure requirements included in the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Kander and Gupta also dive into the political chaos surrounding Speaker Mike Johnson’s demand for last-minute changes that the Senate flatly rejected, Trump’s meltdown when pressed on why he didn’t release the files himself, and the escalating infighting on the right—from MTG’s attacks on Trump to Megyn Kelly’s soft-pedaling of Epstein’s crimes to new reporting that the White House intervened on behalf of Andrew Tate. Plus, they discuss the stunning court ruling striking down Texas’s redistricting maps after a DOJ-induced legal fiasco.

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down the explosive release of newly uncovered Jeffrey Epstein emails, including messages referencing Donald Trump and Ghislaine Maxwell that raise fresh questions about what the former president knew and when. They analyze the media and political fallout, how these revelations intersect with ongoing legal scrutiny, and what Epstein’s 2019 emails to journalist Michael Wolff reveal about his ties to Mar-a-Lago. Kander and Gupta also unpack the end of the government shutdown and whether Democrats “caved.” Plus, they dive into Trump’s eyebrow-raising interview with Laura Ingraham on inflation, and the escalating MAGA civil war—Ben Shapiro feuding with Megyn Kelly, right-wing influencers accusing each other of betrayal, and prominent conservatives warning of a full-blown ideological collapse.

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down the Democrats’ dominating victories in Virginia and New Jersey, where early returns and strong turnout have analysts like Harry Enten and Dave Wasserman predicting Democrats could be favored to retake the House in 2026. They unpack how the results exposed cracks in the GOP coalition, with MAGA influencers blaming “weak” Republican candidates and moderates pointing to Trump’s shutdown chaos and record-low approval rating of -18%. Kander and Gupta also examine how Democratic leaders from Gavin Newsom to Bill Ferguson framed the victories as proof that competence and optimism still win, even as Republicans melted down online over their losses. Plus, they analyze the high-stakes Supreme Court case that could unravel Trump’s global tariffs, what it means for the U.S. economy, and how it fits into a broader crisis of Trump’s leadership.

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down Donald Trump’s collapsing approval numbers, as new polling from The Economist shows his net rating falling to -18, the lowest it has ever been—even lower than any point in his first term. They discuss what’s driving the drop, from voter fatigue to economic fallout, and what it means for Trump’s reelection odds. Kander and Gupta also dive into a new Reuters report revealing the Trump family raked in over $800 million from crypto ventures in just the first half of 2025, even as Trump pardoned Binance CEO CZ Zhao in a move critics call blatant corruption, analyzing how the pardon fits into Trump’s broader pattern of rewarding allies and dismantling financial oversight. Then, they turn to Washington’s ongoing chaos as the government shutdown drags on, with Marjorie Taylor Greene turning on Speaker Mike Johnson and demanding Republicans unveil a real health care plan, and examine Democrats’ surprising restraint in Illinois and Maryland redistricting fights, and how internal debates over power and principle are shaping both parties’ futures. Plus, they break down the Senate’s rare bipartisan rebuke of Trump’s Brazil tariffs, a sign that even some Republicans are losing patience with his economic nationalism.
