Happy Monday! Sam and Emma break down the biggest headlines from an eventful weekend. First, they run through updates on the assassination attempt on Donald Trump, Trump’s stolen documents case, Israel’s continuing slaughter of Gaza in the face of supposed ceasefire negotiations, Trump’s polling, the RNC, Biden’s candidacy, Giuliani’s legal (and now financial) woes, Houston’s devastating (and ongoing) power outage, and the DOJ vs. RealPage, before beginning their deep dive into the stunning security failures that led the Trump assassination attempt, parsing through multiple videos and first-hand accounts that demonstrate awareness of the shooter by both citizens and security officials in the leadup to the first shots. Continuing with the coverage, Sam and Emma walk through the developing background information on the shooter, the history of presidential assassination attempts and their various motives, and the evolving narrative around the shooting, with accusations against Biden, arguments for unity, and good ol’ fashioned DEI-dog whistling all coming from just the GOP. Next, they look to the news cycle of yesteryear as they tackle the growing resignation amid the Democratic establishment over the losing battle that is Biden’s candidacy, Biden’s (likely empty) promises of a progressive second term, and what we can make of the influence of progressives like Bernie and AOC amid this mess.
And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma parse through the story around another major military resignation, this time by Mohammed Abu Hashem of the US Air Force, over the continuing slaughter in Gaza, before diving into the recent response by RFK Jr. to the exposé about him in Vanity Fair – and his telling refusal to deny the sexual assault allegations. The MR Team also unpacks the future of the US electoral system and outsider parties, expands on the US support for Israel with Brandon from Rochester, and speaks with a few longtime callers, including A Squared, about the comparative horror of this moment in recent US history, plus, your calls and IMs!
