Criticism of political hypocrisy highlights a disconnect between public statements and personal actions, particularly among executives and political figures who espouse anti-California sentiments while frequently visiting. This illustrates a broader issue of dishonesty and self-serving behavior within political and business communities. Additionally, a shift in political strategy, as seen in responses to Republican narratives, reflects a trend where candidates aim to confront fear-based tactics by addressing differences with humor and relatability.
Kara and Scott discuss Donald Trump's disastrous interview at the National Association of Black Journalists’ conference, the hundreds of VCs pledging their support to Kamala Harris, and the narrowing VP race. Plus, the latest earnings from Meta and Microsoft, and the Senate finally takes action with online regulation for kids. Then we’re joined by Friend of Pivot, Democratic Governor of Colorado, Jared Polis.
