This week, Ron Steslow and Mike Madrid (Author of The Latino Century) talk about the threats of the escalating, mid-decade redistricting war that Texas and California are kicking off.
Later, they discuss some of the shocking, but not surprising, news on the Epstein scandal.
Then, in Politicology+ they discuss the major jobs number revision from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, Trump firing the agency’s head, and what the erosion of trust in economic data means—especially for government institutions.
