Emily Jashinsky opens the show with a look at the identity politics that continues to infect our discourse with a peak example coming over the weekend out of Canada’s NDP convention as activists get into arguments over pronouns and “equity” procedures. Emily argues this makes it harder for the left to connect with average voters. Then Emily is joined by Shelby Talcott, Semafor White House Correspondent, to discuss reporting that Donald Trump may be signaling potential ground operations in Iran, despite public messaging focused on diplomacy. They also talk about a new POLITICO poll that shows frustration among MAHA-aligned voters and what Emily and Shelby’s own sources are saying, and NBA legend Charles Barkley sparking debate after using a March Madness broadcast to criticize how immigrants are being treated. Next Emily is joined by Washington Post columnist Jason Willick to discuss the importance of deterrence in both Capitol Hill politics and war, PLUS Washington Free Beacon reporting on Democratic Senate hopeful Abdul El-Sayed saying he needed to stay silent on Khamenei killing because many of Michigan’s Muslim voters ‘are sad.’ Emily rounds out the show with a look at the wave of legacy media figures leaving for independent platforms and whether that model is sustainable long-term.
