Trump Immunity, Border Bill, Economic Surge, Zuck on the Hill

A federal appeals court ruled that Trump does not have presidential immunity in the January 6 case. This ruling sets the stage for a spring court date. Isaac Saul from Tangle joins Ravi to discuss what happens next, and if the Supreme Court will take up the case.

On Sunday, Senate negotiators released the text of their $118 billion bill aimed at improving security on the U.S.-Mexico border while providing funding for Ukraine and Israel. Ravi and Isaac dissect what’s in the bill, the winners and losers, and how politics may tank this latest effort.

In the fourth quarter of 2023, the U.S. economy grew more rapidly than expected while inflation slowed. Will this positive economic news impact Biden's chances at reelection?

Finally, Congress recently grilled the heads of Meta, TikTok, Snap, Discord, and X in a heated Judiciary Committee hearing over the threats of social media and child exploitation. Was it all a stunt or will there be real change that comes out of this latest hearing?
