Navigating Government Shutdowns and Political Dynamics

Tara begins the show by discussing Pete Hegseth accidentally sending war plans in a group chat that included Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor in chief of The Atlantic; a preview of her newsletter, where she has the details to a secret AI conference; and more. Then she welcomes Matthew Bennett, and they discuss Axios’s Alex Thompson’s list on why the Democrats lost the election, the fights Republicans are picking, and how the Democrats can get their shit together.
