Episode notes

This chapter delves into the Senate primary race in California, highlighting key candidates including Congressman Adam Schiff. Schiff's political history, role in the Trump impeachment, and reputation as a central figure in the resistance against Trump are explored, emphasizing his centrist stance, national popularity, and strong financial support.

Super Tuesday is the biggest day of the presidential primary campaign, but the biggest race in the biggest state isn’t about Biden or Trump. Instead, the leading candidates for California’s open Senate seat — three Democrats and a Republican — are finding themselves talking a lot about Israel, Palestine, and the war in Gaza.

This episode was produced by Avishay Artsy, edited by Matt Collette, fact-checked by Laura Bullard, engineered by Patrick Boyd, and guest-hosted by Alana Casanova Burgess.
