Jessica sits down with Andrew Bates, former White House deputy press secretary under President Biden and a veteran of the Obama administration. They unpack new evidence in the Charlie Kirk assassination case and what it reveals about Tyler Robinson’s motives. They also get into Trump’s $15 billion defamation suit against The New York Times, the administration’s widening crackdown on speech, and MAGA openly calling for a dictatorship. Bates shares how the press corps is handling Trump 2.0 compared to his time in the Biden White House, and they break down the fallout from Kamala Harris’s forthcoming book—where she bluntly says Biden shouldn’t have run in 2024—and what it means now that other Democrats are echoing her.
