Trump's NATO exit threats have been neutralized by a 2024 law requiring two‑thirds Senate approval or an act of Congress to leave, forcing his administration to use funding pressure and new parallel alliances instead of quitting the alliance outright.

Janet Mills' Senate bid in Maine is effectively over — not that it really got off the ground in the first place. She was supposed to be the top-tier recruit, the popular governor-turned-candidate Chuck Schumer believed could finally take down Susan Collins in a state that otherwise leans blue. Instead, she spent the entire race trailing Graham Plattner who, on paper, should've been far easier to beat. It didn't matter what opposition research came out about him or how aggressively it was pushed. None of it stuck, and Mills never found a way to change the trajectory.What stands out is how little impact the traditional playbook had. There was plenty of money, plenty of ads, and a clear attempt to define Plattner early. But the race didn't move. If anything, it exposed a growing gap between campaign strategy and voter behavior. Mills relied heavily on air support, while Plattner was everywhere in person, constantly holding events and staying visible. That contrast ended up mattering more than anything that showed up in a negative ad.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.There's also a broader lesson here about what kind of campaigning is working right now. The candidates who seem to break through are the ones who are constantly engaging, constantly talking, and constantly generating new moments. It's less about message discipline and more about presence. Plattner fits that mold, and Mills never really did. She couldn't match that energy, and in a race like this, that gap becomes impossible to ignore.Now the dynamic shifts to the general election, where Susan Collins gets a matchup she likely prefers. She can run as the steady, familiar option against a more unpredictable opponent, which has been her formula for years. But there's some risk in that calculation. Wanting a specific opponent doesn't always work out the way you expect, and recent political history has a few high profile reminders of that.Still, the immediate takeaway is simple. A highly recruited, well funded candidate lost to someone who just outworked and out-connected her. For all the sophistication in modern campaigns, this ended up being a very basic result. One candidate showed up everywhere, and the other never quite got going.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:04:01 - Janet Mills00:08:17 - Michael Cohen on Maine, Texas, and More00:58:58 - Iran Options01:04:58 - DHS Shutdown01:06:31 - Casey Means01:08:54 - Sarah Isgur on Supreme Court Drama01:40:05 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Seattle’s office vacancy rate is the worst in the nation at 33%, Q1 2026 report confirms. Secretary of War Pete Hegseth appeared before Congress to discuss the conflict in Iran today. Guest: Republican State Senator Drew MacEwen sounds off on one of the biggest credit agencies in the country giving Washington a bleak financial outlook. // Jay Inslee is lying about Washington’s emissions record — the numbers prove it. Should we be wary about putting more data centers on rural land? // A new study suggests that watching video videos of junk food can help fight cravings. Panera is receiving backlash from its employees over it’s new menu items. Bridal stores are requiring waivers because of weight loss drugs.

Congress has the power to stop Trump's unpopular war in Iran — but lawmakers have never used it before. Their excuse? An obscure immigration case from 1983. In this special episode, David Sirota tells the wild story of how a Kenyan-born immigrant and a Ralph Nader-aligned lawyer unwittingly expanded the powers of the president — and left Congress believing that it's powerless to stop unauthorized wars.  Listen to the rest of Master Plan: The Kingmakers.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth walked into a combative hearing and didn’t back down. Instead of absorbing attacks from Democrat lawmakers, he went on offense, calling out rhetoric he says weakens America on the world stage. In a tense back-and-forth, Hegseth made it clear: projecting doubt about U.S. strength only empowers our enemies. But the bigger moment? He exposed what he framed as a troubling mindset—members of Congress more focused on tearing down America than standing up for it. We break down the sharpest exchanges and what this clash reveals about the fight over America’s future.

The Supreme Court set off a redistricting frenzy with the release of its decision on Wednesday to defang Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act.

“Mingy” is a useful word. It merges stingy with mean, pretty well summing up the prevailing ethic of today's corporate bosses.Take mingy CEOs of multibillion-dollar powerhouses like Amazon and 7-Eleven. They've been refusing to accommodate even the simplest needs of – get this – their pregnant employees.As the New York Times reports, women who're heavy with child can suffer acute health crises if they're on their feet too long. For example, a pregnant Amazon warehouse worker in upstate New York became breathless and lightheaded, so her doctor told her to work sitting down periodically. She got a chair and felt better. But uh-uh, an Amazon manager took her chair away and insisted she stand! This caused her to be hospitalized several times. Then, Amazon fired her for having too many medical absences.Or take the 27-year-old pregnant check-out clerk at Speedway, the gas station chain owned by 7-Eleven. To ease the strain of standing for hours, she was allowed to sit on some milk crates as she worked the counter. No, barked higher-ups, who took her crates away. She soon had a pregnancy emergency, and her doctor told her not to work for several days. So, Speedway put her on “involuntary unpaid leave.” But, technically she wasn't fired, so the corporate giant prevented her from getting unemployment pay.This is corporate assault, targeting women in low-wage jobs. It's so common that Congress had to pass a law, the “Pregnant Workers Fairness Act,” to say: Stop it! But it hasn't stopped, for Trump officials are not eager to punish multimillion-dollar corporate bosses. But that raises the fundamental ethical question: Why don't bosses stop themselves?Have I mentioned that “boss,” spelled backwards, is double-S-O-B?Jim Hightower's Lowdown is a reader-supported publication.

When President Trump sent troops into Iran, he did so without a green light from Congress. Now he faces a deadline on May 1 to either end the war in Iran or secure official approval from Congress. That timeline is laid out under the War Powers Resolution, a law that allows presidents to start wars without congressional approval. Democrats in Congress have tried and failed to pass multiple resolutions to halt the war. Meanwhile, the war is losing support from Republican lawmakers, who have not proposed a vote to approve it. We talk about the war in Iran, lawmakers' efforts to stop it so far, and whether the Trump administration is feeling any pressure from the 60-day deadline. Guests: Harold Hongju Koh, professor of international law, Yale Law School; legal advisor to the U.S. Department of State from 2009-2013 Mark DeSaulnier, U.S. Congressman representing California's 10th district (the East Bay) Robert Jimison, congressional reporter covering foreign policy, defense and national security issues, The New York Times Elisa Ewers, senior fellow, Council on Foreign Relations Learn more about your ad choices.

The King of England and the King of Trolls. King Charles III visited the White House yesterday and spoke to Congress. The Left all stood and clapped for the King of England. Then they got mad at a tweet. When it comes to involvement in foreign countries, America just can't win. If we help, we're imperialist, if we don't help, we're also bad somehow? Either way, Zambia has AIDS and somehow that's America's fault. Al Gore was wrong about climate change, but he's back with a new warning. How much is it going to cost us this time?

The US-Iran ceasefire is holding, but the Strait of Hormuz remains closed, the global economy is teetering on the edge of disaster, and America's precision weapons stockpile is badly depleted after repeated conflicts with Iran, with experts warning that it could have grave consequences for US readiness in the event of a conflict with China. Meanwhile, King Charles becomes the first British king to address Congress as the UK tries to use a royal charm offensive to paper over major differences on Iran, Mali's military government teeters on collapse after coordinated terrorist attacks rock the country and drive out Russian mercenaries, and the CIA's covert operations in Mexico blow up into a sovereignty crisis for President Sheinbaum.

President Trump has called the bond between the US and the UK a friendship "unlike any other on Earth" at a state dinner attended by King Charles and Queen Camilla. Earlier in a historic address speech to Congress, King Charles praised NATO and said the UK-US partnership was more important than ever.

Also: The former FBI director, James Comey, has been charged with threatening the life of President Trump in a picture he posted on social media last year; Mali's ruler appears in public for the first time since insurgents tried to seize power; and we look at the impact of lab-grown diamonds on the wider diamond industry.

Every five years or so, Congress considers and passes a new version of the farm bill. It is a massive law covering not just agriculture, but also food assistance programs. And it comes at a particularly tough time for farmers, who are being pinched by drought, tariffs, and rising fuel and fertilizer costs. Then, what's the UAE's departure from OPEC mean for oil prices? And later, from "Marketplace Tech," we hear how Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act opens the "backdoor" for warrantless searches.

Pierre Thomas has the latest on a grand jury's indictment of former FBI Director James Comey for a second time over a social media post the DOJ claims was a threat against Pres. Trump; James Longman has details on King Charles' historic address to Congress, urging unity amid global tensions, praising America's founding ideals, condemning political violence and calling for support of Ukraine; Trevor Ault reports on the five Mississippi middle school students hailed as heroes after jumping into action when they noticed their bus driver lost consciousness from an asthma attack, working together to stop the bus; and more on tonight's broadcast of World News Tonight with David Muir.

DOJ Goes After Comey. FCC vs Jimmy Kimmel. 1100 TSA Officers Quit Since Shutdown. Kid Rock's Apache Joy Ride with Hegseth. UAE Leaves OPEC. Gov Moore on Open Primaries.  A real king is in Washington this week, and the wannabe king in the Oval Office is making the most of the pomp. Paul Rieckhoff opens with King Charles and Camilla's visit, the Epstein questions nobody at the White House wants to touch, and the through-line that drives this entire briefing: Trump is busting up Congress, the UN, NATO, the World Bank, the EU, and now OPEC — and the institutions that held this country and this world together are being stress-tested in real time. Gas hits $4.18, the UAE bolts from the cartel, 1,100 TSA officers walk off the job, and most Americans have no idea any of it is happening. From there it's a no-BS sweep across the front lines: a $400 million ballroom funded by your tax dollars after Trump promised to pay himself, a no-bid contract inflated 3X, Pete Hegseth taking Kid Rock on Apache joyrides while the chain of command rots, the FCC weaponized against ABC and Jimmy Kimmel, a renewed indictment push against Jim Comey over seashells on a beach, and 185 people killed in 54 unauthorized strikes on so-called narco boats with Cuba telegraphed as next. Then the inspiration: Ukraine killing 30,000 Russian troops a month, Norway co-producing drones for Kyiv, independent veteran Todd Achilles taking on an 83-year-old senator in Idaho, Wes Moore endorsing open primaries, and Horace Grant's goggles.

It has happened before, the United States and Great Britain are not in full agreement over a military conflict, and the British Royal Family intervenes diplomatically. This week had another historic visit by the British Monarchy, as King Charles delivered a speech before Congress that had a focus on how important the decades long alliance between the two countries has helped the world. The visit also comes at a time that relations between the U.S. and U.K. have devolved since the conflict with Iran started. FOX's John Saucier speaks with Shannon Felton-Spence, the Director of Global Communications and Strategy at the Harvard Belfer Center, who explains how unique of a diplomatic tool the United Kingdom has in the British Royal Family.
