Trump's Putin Obsession

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down Trump’s deranged Truth Social rant about slavery and the Smithsonian, as critics warn he’s whitewashing history to rally his base. They analyze whether this is a calculated distraction or a major issue in the campaign, as Trump doubles down on Confederate monuments and military base renaming. Kander and Gupta also dive into the latest from Ukraine, including Trump’s bizarre comments on his “warm” relationship with Putin, Zelensky’s lighthearted jokes with reporters, and the unusual role Melania may be playing behind the scenes. Plus, they discuss new revelations about Fox News personalities coordinating with Trump during the 2020 election, strange moments from Trump on the campaign trail, and how Democrats are facing a hidden-in-plain-sight voter registration crisis heading into 2028.

Dems Walk Out

Ravi Gupta, solo hosting this week with Jason out, breaks down the escalating redistricting battles as Democrats push back against GOP-drawn maps in states like Texas and New York. He analyzes viral moments from Rep. James Talarico and Governor Hochul’s appearance on Maddow, as well as the media frenzy over Trump and Governor Abbott’s responses to the gerrymandering controversy. Gupta also dives into the deepening Trump information bubble, including Trump’s firing of the BLS commissioner after a strong jobs report, his CNBC interview clashes, and even pushback from allies like Kevin O’Leary. Plus, new revelations in the Epstein case emerge as Ghislaine Maxwell is moved to a low-security prison and MAGA media starts to shift its tone—with reporting that top Trump officials met privately to strategize their response. Ravi also unpacks RFK Jr.’s stunning decision to cancel hundreds of millions in mRNA vaccine research, sparking backlash from public health experts. Finally, he covers the right-wing media’s obsession with the Sydney Sweeney controversy—and how it distracts from real scandals.
