My Nation colleague Joan Walsh recently profiled Georgia Senator Jon Ossoff for the magazine. Georgia is very much a purple state. The fact that Ossoff won there and stands a good chance at re-election is evidence of his political talent, turning him into an increasingly prominent national figure. Joan and I talked about Ossoff's background and the long struggle to transform Georgia, a formerly red state where Democrats are making headway.Advertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Joining Gaslit Nation this week, Jack Cocchiarella—the Gen Z political commentator, host of The Jack Cocchiarella Show, and future ambassador to Italy under the most progressive White House the world has ever seen—argues that despair, not ideology, is the true driving force behind America's Gen Z vs. nihilism crisis. Andrea and Jack discuss the radicalization of young men who feel they lack a sense of belonging or purpose; the ways New York City Council Member Zohran Mamdani—whom Jack interviewed early in his campaign when he had no chance of winning—embodies the ideal role model for Gen Z men today; the weird and creepy love affair between MAGA cultist Natalie Harp and convicted felon/cult leader Donald Trump; how the Democrats can start being ruthless and stop playing by the book when the book is on fire; why cryptocurrency lobbyists in Congress are the "controlled opposition"; Trump's plan to hole up in a ballroom-bunker to escape the people whose lives he's destroying; and the progressive case for supporting Ukraine against fascist Russia.

Georgia's 2026 campaigns are starting to get real attention, and Scot and Buzz break down where things stand. This week: the massive advertising gap between Rick Jackson and Keisha Lance Bottoms, Jon Ossoff's multimillion-dollar investment in the Democratic Party of Georgia, and what it says about the organization of the two parties heading into November. They also discuss former Mike Collins staffer Jessica Hayes receiving national recognition, new questions surrounding the Chatham County elections office, Mitchell Horner's growing push for local government accountability, and new Georgia Tech research on the economic impact of data centers. Plus, Scot unveils his experiment to build a college football ranking system from scratch, with no preseason rankings, recruiting rankings, conference prestige, or previous-season assumptions.

The Supreme Court, this week, pulled the reins on the Trump administration's intent to use the United States Postal Service - to curb mail-in voting this cycle. Good!Does this mean we're at the precipice of swinging momentum away from the dark Trump chapter in American history? Leave nothing to chance, I say, and underestimate that man and his minions at your own peril, but time is - and tools are - running in short supply for effort to stem what's likely to come at the polls in November.Lest we forget MAGA's ballot seizure antics here in Atlanta/Fulton County and how it may have tipped their hand at what they'll attempt on and after election day.=+=+=+=Meanwhile as prices on everything soar in the throes of the Trump war of choice against Iran, Republicans keep trying to compare today's inflationary numbers to those in 2021-2022, but Democratic pundits remain - STILL - flat-footed with an inability to offer the clapback I've been offering since 2023: that even the Biden-era hyper-inflation and soaring gas price conundrum is easily traced back to a Trump/OPEC agreement made in April of 2020 that didn't expire until May 1, 2022. Inflation and gas prices began cooling a month later. =+=+=+=Meanwhile with Democratic gubernatorial candidate Keisha Lance Bottoms and other down-ballot Georgia Democrats not faring as well as Senator Jon Ossoff has in fundraising, we learned earlier this week he's funneled $3.6 million into the state party's coordinated campaign coffers to assist. Good; in this current political climate where he and only a handful of prominent Democrats enjoy popularity while the party doesn't, that's going to be necessary.

Joanna Coles and David Rothkopf dive into Donald Trump's bizarre trip to Ireland, from his increasingly public reliance on aide Natalie Harp to his stunning comments about a united Ireland, before turning to the explosive new revelations surrounding Don Jr.'s Kremlin-linked wedding. Rothkopf traces the Trump family's decades-long connections to Russian money, boxing, oligarchs, and corruption, arguing that the same forces shaping the president today have been there all along. They also take a look at Trump's enormous new White House ballroom, the latest battle over the Kennedy Center, and his embrace of what Rothkopf calls a “Doomsday President” agenda—from AI and climate change to pandemics and nuclear weapons. But as the midterms approach, there may finally be a reason for optimism, with a new generation of Democrats—including Georgia Senate candidate Jon Ossoff—offering a potential path out of the Trump era. #ad Get 15% off OneSkin with the code BEAST at https://www.oneskin.co/BEAST   #oneskinpod  #ad Unlock your best hair & skin with @iRestorelaser and HUGE savings on iRESTORE with code DAILYBEAST  at https://irestore.com/DAILYBEAST ! #irestorepod Learn more about your ad choices.

Ariel Hart, writing for the Georgia Recorder and States' Newsrooms, covered the rollout of GOP gubernatorial candidate Rick Jackson's healthcare coverage initiative in a piece Ron reviewed. Details are lacking while bluster and proclamations were offered in abundance. He did say he'd be 'Trump with a southern accent,' though, so that shouldn't be a surprise. On Trump, it's the 'One Big Beautiful Bill' he signed that makes the "Jackson Action Plan" really difficult a needle to thread. Whereas forty other states - many of them GOP-led - took Affordable Care Act Medicaid subsidies to expand Medicaid to its poorest residents without stringent work requirements, Brian Kemp's "Pathways" program has spent more money on administrative costs than actual coverage. Is Jackson's "Action" plan more of the same?That said, is there evidence of some areas even the "Jackson Plan" might improve the burden applicants go through just to apply? Again, details are murky, but the vow was made it would be. We'll see.Or Keisha Lance Bottoms will win in November, and we'll know that Georgia will take the easier path forty other U.S. states have.=+=+=+=Senator Jon Ossoff's latest rally in Athens over the weekend gave attendees more of that sharpened rhetoric he's become known for; the kind of rhetoric that's made him an early 2028 darling for another race not on his radar.

COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN - SEASON 5, EPISODE 5 A-Block (SPECIAL COMMENT) - Hey, yeah, sorry, we forgot to mench...before U.S. servicemen were killed at a base in Jordan, Iran got satellite images of the facility from "Chinese entities" according to The Wall Street Journal. Nobody's saying it's the GOVERNMENT so end of story, especially if you have the IQ of a Trump. Use your brain: Iran didn't buy these on eBay - there's only one kind of Chinese "Entity" - a Chinese GOVERNMENT Entity. Ten days before he's supposed to entertain Chinese Dictator Xi at the White House, Trump is on the losing end of a war with Iran (assists: China, Russia) and naturally Xi is threatening to cancel it because we're selling Taiwan nation-saving weapons. China knows Trump is useless, weak, imbecilic. As, obviously, does Putin, who is now threatening Kiev-to-Warsaw trains as they near the Polish border and Trump is blaming Zelensky because Diesel prices because Trump cannot understand people, only money. Thank god the president of Ireland, Catherine Connolly, made Trump sit at the kids' table yesterday. Literally. All this while A.I. might destroy all of humanity. All of humanity? So Trump is safe? B-Block (30:00) (MORE SPECIAL COMMENT) - The good news is, MAGA is slipping from a close second to extinction levels in all polling, polling analysis, and on the campaign trail. Jon Ossoff called Trump a draft-dodger but reserved worse remarks for his opponent, Mike Collins. Turns out Jon Karl and vandals didn't destroy the Lincoln Reflecting Pool remodeling - the contractor did, and confessed. And 25 years later and Ari Fleischer is still lying for George W. Bush, and as usual, managing to only make him look worse. C-Block (50:00) (THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL) - I put no weight in dreams as prophesy. Maybe as messages to yourself. But I don't mind telling you I was reminded of the breadth of the failure of cable and broadcast news in this time of institutional collapse, when my late friend Tim Russert showed up in a dream.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Erick takes a caller's tale of two Georgia ad campaigns, Rick Jackson's brutal and effective spots against Keisha Lance Bottoms versus the One Nation tax ads carrying Mike Collins against Jon Ossoff, and turns it into the central question of the 2026 midterms: a blue wave is coming, but is the red wall the GOP […]

Greg Bluestein and Washington Bureau Chief Tia Mitchell answer listener questions about the Republican midterm convention in Dallas and what Mike Collins' attacks on Jon Ossoff reveal about his campaign. They also dig into the level of national Republican investment in Georgia, the continued deployment of Georgia National Guard troops to Washington, uncertainty over mail-in voting rules, and the push for new guardrails on Flock cameras. Mitchell also weighs how Keisha Lance Bottoms' Atlanta mayoral legacy compares with Kasim Reed's. Have a question or comment for the show?

Es war ein kleiner Seitenhieb gegen Trump und seine Assistentin Natalie Harp, die Jon Ossoff, Senator von Georgia, plötzlich zum neuesten liebsten Hassprojekt von Trump Republikaner gemacht hat. Während sich Ossoff also einer Kampagne aus dem MAGA-Lager gegenübersieht, wächst in seinem Bundesstaat und in den USA seine Popularität. Wer ist der 39-Jährige, den manche schon als künftigen US-Präsidenten sehen und hat er wirklich Chancen auf dieses Amt? Darüber sprechen wir mit Eric Frey, Leitender Redakteur beim STANDARD.

On today's live edition of Political Breakfast, President Donald Trump is now promising to pay American adults $5K each -- IF Republicans maintain control of the House and Senate in this November's midterm elections. Experts say that's a trillion dollar promise -- when the country is already burdened by roughly $40 trillion in debt. The move would need Congressional approval. Republican strategist Brian Robinson, Democratic strategist and attorney Anré Washington and host Lisa Rayam weigh-in on if this campaign promise is ethical and even legal? Then we'll move to the latest in Georgia's race for U.S. Senate. At the Republican midterm convention, Congressman Mike Collins spoke about his support for the Laken Riley Act, which requires the detention of unauthorized immigrants convicted of theft and violent crimes. It was the first bill that Trump signed into law at the start of his second term. Laken Riley is the nursing student who was murdered on the UGA campus in 2024. The Venezuelan immigrant who was convicted had entered the country illegally. Collins' opponent, Democratic U.S. Sen. Jon Ossoff, also voted to support the bill. But is this continued focus on immigration reform by Republicans an effort to distract from Collins' latest controversy -- alleged ties to white nationalists?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Greg Bluestein and Patricia Murphy dig into the competing strategies shaping Georgia's Republican ticket, with Mike Collins leaning into Donald Trump and Rick Jackson targeting voters who backed Brian Kemp and other Republicans in recent elections. They weigh what a strong Jon Ossoff showing could mean for Keisha Lance Bottoms and the rest of the Democratic ticket as Bottoms works to overcome Jackson's massive financial advantage. They also examine why the spouses of the four marquee candidates have largely stayed off the campaign trail and what that says about changing expectations, family priorities and the risks of modern campaigns.

Georgia politics is colliding with college football this week on Peach Pundit the Podcast. Scot Turner and Buzz Brockway start with the SEC showdown involving LSU, Lane Kiffin, and Georgia Attorney General Chris Carr before turning to the 2026 campaign trail. They break down Georgia GOP Chairman Josh McKoon's relationship with Republican nominee Rick Jackson, the challenge of turning out Trump voters, and the roughly 200,000 Georgians who have shown they are willing to split their tickets. They also discuss Mike Collins, Jon Ossoff, Donald Trump, and the RNC's unusual midterm convention. Then Scot and Buzz dig into Rick Jackson's newly announced “Intelligent Medicaid Expansion” proposal, including Georgia Pathways, work requirements, private insurance, federal Medicaid funding, health care price transparency, telemedicine, and the unanswered questions surrounding the plan. Also this week: Georgia's search for a new voting system, the Georgia Supreme Court's major property rights ruling involving Blue 42 Organics, Democratic attacks on Republican lawmakers Scot Hilton and Deborah Silcox, and another troubling chapter in the debate over Flock Safety cameras and privacy. Peach Pundit the Podcast brings you Georgia politics, policy, campaigns, elections, and plenty of opinions from Scot Turner and Buzz Brockway.

John is joined by publisher of The Bulwark and apostate Republican strategist Sarah Longwell to discuss the midterm elections, 2028, and her new book, “How to Eat an Elephant: One Voter at a Time.” Longwell explains how large an albatross Donald Trump has become for GOP candidates up and down the ballot; why Democrats' strong position in the polls may not be a summertime “sugar high;” and why Gavin Newsom is merely engaging in “performance art” while Jon Ossoff is “president-maxxing." She also lays out what she's learned about the electorate from conducting more than 400 focus groups in the past decade—and how it informs her new book's argument about how to permanently dismantle MAGA.

Greg Bluestein and Tia Mitchell tackle listener questions about Keisha Lance Bottoms' strategy against Rick Jackson, the growing Democratic push into Georgia's outer suburbs and the debate over Flock cameras. They also weigh how candidates shape their personal stories and size up the possibility of Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock both considering presidential bids in 2028.

The Democrat Senator Jon Ossoff is suddenly the name on everyone's lips. With his careful oratory and intangible 'it factor' comparisons have been made with a young Barack Obama. But who is the 39-year-old from Atlanta? Born in 1987 Ossoff grew up in Georgia where he attended a private school in the wealthy neighbourhood of Druid Hills. While at school Ossoff wrote to the civil rights leader and U.S. representative John Lewis who offered Ossoff an internship. He attended Georgetown University before moving to London to study at the London School of Economics. While in London Ossoff founded a media company where he worked as an investigative journalist producing films about corruption and human rights abuses. In 2017 he made his first foray into politics when a seat became available in his native Georgia. Despite being a complete unknown Ossoff broke fundraising records for a U.S. House candidate and received a large share of the vote. He didn't win the first time instead securing a seat in 2021. As a Jewish Democrat in a state with strong Republican support many say that Ossoff has his work cut out. Yet he appears to have mass appeal. Having been vouched for by Congressman John Lewis Ossoff has won the trust of many of Georgia's black voters. He's also developed a reputation for forensic takedowns of his opponents in government recently hitting the headlines after taking a crack at Donald Trump and his assistant Natalie Harp. Ossoff has said he has no plans to run for president himself but as veteran Democrat strategist Hank Sheinkopf observes 'He would say that wouldn't he?'Production: Presenter: Stephen Smith Producers: Annabel Deas and Bethan Ashmead Production Coordinator: Sabine Schereck Sound: James Beard Editor: Justine Lang

Sen. Jon Ossoff is the only incumbent Democratic senator running in a state Donald Trump won in 2024. Abdul El-Sayed is running to try and hold on to Democrats' Senate seat. We compare and contrast their campaigns as both Republicans and Democrats try to win these competitive races.This episode: senior political correspondent Tamara Keith, congressional reporter Sam Gringlas, and senior national political correspondent Mara Liasson.This podcast was produced and edited by Casey Morell and Bria Suggs.Our executive producer is Muthoni Muturi.Support public media with NPR+ and enjoy perks for over 25 podcasts like this one.

I'm in Atlanta for Dragon Con, and normally that would give me a chance to see what the campaigns are putting on television. But I don't expect to see many political ads while I'm in the Peach State, because Georgia's Senate race wasn't supposed to look like this. It was supposed to be Brian Kemp against Jon Ossoff — a heavyweight fight if there ever was one. But Kemp didn't run; Mike Collins won the Republican primary, and plenty of Georgia Republicans really, really hate him. Ossoff has made himself more palatable and taken enough tough votes to argue that he'll side with Georgia when his party doesn't. I've been an Ossoff skeptic, but right now you can't argue with it. I think this race is a wrap.Republicans have two exceptionally weak Senate challengers in states where they should perform well: Collins in Georgia and Michael Whatley in North Carolina. I'll eat the L on Whatley because I thought he'd do better. I expected the environment to be bad for Republicans, but we've reached the point where nobody not named Donald Trump feels comfortable telling voters how awesome everything is. Trump's secret is that you always say it's awesome. Sometimes people believe you, sometimes they don't, but you can't have a parade unless somebody leads it. In Georgia, I think this race is wrapped. Ossoff will remain a senator.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication.

The revised order targeted alleged birth tourism, certain foreign-government employees, and people designated as alien enemies, but Judge Deborah Boardman said those categories barely resembled the exceptions previously recognized by the Supreme Court and found the order almost certainly unconstitutional. This is the Trump 2.0 philosophy: Get shots up. Push, push, push. Make judges knock it down, take it to the Supreme Court, and make the justices rule.I've tried to interrogate why I don't get as angry or worried about every one of these moves as other people do. Part of it is that there are so many of them, and I need to see how they rattle around before developing an emotional opinion. I'm willing to accept the criticism that I'm whistling while Rome burns, or while an arsonist fiddles with a matchbook. But the alternative is becoming a herky-jerky psychopath whose emotions are entirely controlled by the Trump administration. They decide when you're mad, sad, or happy because everything depends on their latest action. I don't want that, either.Finally, Hakeem Jeffries also got another preview of life with a narrow Democratic majority after Jared Golden and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez rescued a Republican procedural vote without warning him. Jeffries and Democratic leaders called it a serious breach of trust and sent the matter to a caucus committee, triggering backlash from progressives and centrists worried about uneven punishment and loyalty rules. If Democrats win a WINO majority — fewer than 15 seats — this will be Jeffries' life. Be careful what you wish for, Speaker Jeffries.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:01:45 - Georgia00:06:27 - Midterms with Bill Scher00:32:07 - Update00:34:33 - House of Representatives00:36:06 - Birthright Citizenship00:39:18 - Hakeem Jeffries00:40:46 - Midterms with Bill Scher, con't01:03:44 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.

Plus, the guys gear up for the start of college, examine the outrage over Trump renaming things by looking back at what Biden did, and ask the question every parent can relate to: what is dropping your kids off at school like in 2026?

From there he runs the board on eight Senate races where Democrats are polling ahead: Mary Peltola in Alaska, Jon Ossoff defending Georgia against Mike Collins, Josh Turek in Iowa, Troy Jackson taking on Susan Collins in Maine after Graham Platner exited the race, Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan against Mike Rogers, Roy Cooper with a commanding lead in North Carolina, Sherrod Brown mounting a comeback in Ohio, and James Talarico leading Ken Paxton in Texas. Hawk spends extra time on Talarico, whose polling shows unusually strong support among Black voters in Texas compared with past Democratic nominees, and on Paxton, whose fundraising has cratered to the point that Donald Trump is planning a rally for him. He also touches on the Jasmine Crockett dynamic in that race.

Jon sits down with legendary Democratic strategist David Plouffe to assess the race for the Senate and House and — why not? — look forward to 2028. The two talk through the new roster of early primary states and the political dynamics at play in each, and then do some (very) early handicapping of the rumored '28 contenders, from Kamala Harris to AOC and Jon Ossoff.Hate listening to ads?

Hasan Piker is in the news once again, this time, for a “controversial” statement he made about antisemitism. This statement, that was no different than statements made uncontroversially by Ezra Klein, Haley Stevens, and Neera Tanden, drew condemnations from a wide variety of Democratic officials. From presidential hopefuls like Elissa Slotkin and Jon Ossoff to DNC chair Ken Martin, there has been a coordinated effort to disparage Hasan Piker. So much of this general election cycle has been eaten up by Hasan Piker discourse that voters are being robbed of a chance to learn about the two candidates that will actually be on the ballot: Mike Rogers and Abdul El-Sayed. Oh also, Trump started a brand new trade war with Canada for no reason.(0:00) Ken Martin don't be a bum challenge failed(4:00) Intro(7:15) Unending Hasan Piker discourse(1:02:00) Trump launches a new trade war(1:08:30) Reviews/endingSeen on this episode:Piker-pocalypse - https://heartlandsignal.com/2025/09/10/mike-rogers-justifies-trumps-tariffs-with-return-of-manufacturing-jobs-which-are-decreasing/https://michigandems.com/coffee-prices-spike-41-due-to-tariffs-backed-by-price-hike-mike/https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/12/opinion/hasan-piker-democrats.html?eafs_enabled=false https://hakg.uzi.uni-halle.de/editions/2?lang=de https://finance.yahoo.com/economy/policy/articles/canada-softens-us-tariff-reprisal-115226010.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAADr7hs7hVWPJqDR9YBkwH9wOepKAk0mDuInNQ-NeM5RmLawxLkK_VgpAnlGElCKIacSESX_cKQ_yDDUoiAnUXXjeSOjqOdEbWDVEbjbcMwFpLG8DmdyDvWM1996yEtn5UGnKyz0DHwe_kxYxpRr99v3rWt7PO4PyTrjBnXmkS6QQhttps://www.newsweek.com/democrats-are-fighting-a-war-over-a-man-most-voters-have-never-heard-of-12366860New trade war with Canada dropped - https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/6054237-trade-representative-jamieson-greer-trump-us-canada-trade-war/ https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c3v4xg5klx7o https://www.nytimes.com/2026/08/23/world/canada/canada-us-trade-war-trump-carney.html https://www.nytimes.com/2026/08/25/world/canada/trump-carney-trade-war-tariffs.html

August 27, 2026; 4pm: Jacob Soboroff is in for Nicolle Wallace. This afternoon, Republicans are starting to reckon with the consequences of hitching their wagon to Donald Trump. Later, Trump's new policy, which removes tariffs from imported ground beef for 90 days (conveniently right up until the midterms), is making American cattle farmers feel frustrated and betrayed.

Hi. On today's episode of Even More News, Katy and Jonathan are back to talk about MAGA's manufactured outrage over Jon Ossoff's comments about Trump and Natalie Harp, Trump's new tariff war with Canada, and Hakeem Jeffries' secret meeting with Jared Kushner.PATREON: https://patreon.com/somemorenewsMERCH: https://shop.somemorenews.comYOUTUBE MEMBERSHIP: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCvlj0IzjSnNoduQF0l3VGng/join#NatalieHarp #jonossoffChapters:0:00 - Introduction/Tariff War With Canada12:57 - MAGA's New Outrage over "Natalie"23:23 - Hakeem Jeffries Secret Meeting With KushnerSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Seth Meyers and A Closer Look supervising writer/producer Sal Gentile catch up on all the news they're missing during Late Night's summer hiatus. In this episode, they discuss Donald Trump contradicting his own son-in-law Jared Kushner on Iran and refusing to apologize for high gas prices, as well as Sen. Darline Graham's disastrous debate performance and Jon Ossoff's mention of Trump aide Natalie Harp.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Kurt Andersen and Joanna Coles take a wild ride through the strange characters, political fantasies, and very plausible futures shaping America right now. Andersen sizes up Natalie Harp as a figure so bizarre she could have stepped out of Dickens, Orwell, or The Simpsons, before revisiting his new novel's startling vision of Donald Trump's death and an America fractured beyond recognition. They debate whether the country's divisions could really lead to disunion, why fiction may be better equipped than nonfiction to capture this political moment, and whether Jon Ossoff has emerged as the Democrat to watch. Then, the conversation takes an even stranger turn as Andersen reviews his former coke dealer RFK Jr.'s unlikely new food podcast and what it might reveal about life after Trump.

Sami Sage sits down with comedian and political commentator Alex Pearlman to talk about why the Democratic Party has no leader, why politicians under 45 who grew up online (Ossoff, Mamdani, AOC) actually know how to communicate, and why Alex is touring 12 cities to get people off their phones and back into real conversations. They also cover Kamala's 2028 odds, the DSA's messaging problem, and getting money out of politics. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Donald Trump's handling of the Natalie Harp mess has backfired big time. The Atlantic reports that Trump's own anger is why Trumpworld exploded so vehemently after Senator Jon Ossoff highighted their closeness. As the media focused on Harp, Trump grew “furious,” which led aides to “take their cues” from him, leading to more lashing out, but this “backfired spectacularly,” prompting more attention—and more leaks. The New York Times reported that some advisers think her sway is “poisonous,” and even that she's provided him with the ugliest social media content that he posts, such as the image of the Obamas as apes. We talked to Democratic operative Greg Greene, who held this job under Obama and wrote about it for The New Republic. We discuss the deeper problems with this arrangement, why the latest disclosures are so unnerving, and what it all says about the Cult of Trump—and about Trumpworld's profound contempt for our constitutional order.  Looking for More from the DSR Network?

Amy Walter returns to the pod for a pundit therapy session. She and Sarah discuss: A recent focus group of Georgia swing voters, and what they think of Sen. Jon Ossoff and his opponent. The massive polling misses in the Wisconsin and Michigan primaries, and listen to a focus group of Wisconsin voters that tell us (in retrospect) how David Crowley was able to pull of a last minute surge. In light of AOC's 'Woke 1 was crazy' comments, they discuss swing voters' biggest complaints about each of our political parties, and whether the parties' brand problems are driven by politicians, or by other people in voters' lives.

MAGA world continues to express outrage over Jon Ossoff's "travel with Natalie" remarks, including an over-the-top rant from Scott Jennings that is being seen as the pundit's shameless audition for the open White House press secretary job. Dan and Jon react to Harp-gate, an MS NOW report that says Harp declined to seek a security clearance, and the New York Times reporting that Pete Hegseth brings his wife to highly sensitive meetings to "keep him out of trouble." They then turn to the midterms to unpack Angie Nixon's surprising defeat of Alexander Vindman in the Florida Democratic Senate primary, Dan Sullivan vs. Dan Sullivan in the Alaska general election, Darline Graham's historically embarrassing debate answer in South Carolina, and the impact the debate over data centers is having on the Ohio Senate election. Then, Josh Turek, the Democratic nominee for Senate in Iowa, stops by the studio to talk to Lovett about Democratic momentum in the Hawkeye State and how he convinced Barack Obama to shoot hoops in his viral endorsement video.Hate listening to ads?

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, President Trump, as Commander-in-Chief, made the decision to go to war with Iran and destroy their nuclear regime. Not Benjamin Netanyahu or anyone else. He did. But the Woke Reich neo-fascist isolationists can't accept that. In the past, Democrats and Republicans would have united behind this decision. Now, Democrats and Democratic Socialists on the left and the Woke Reich on the far right are undermining Trump and our troops. We know what the Iranian regime will do if they get their hands on nukes. We know they already fund terror groups all over the world. We know they push their ideology to the young, including right here in America. Right now, in the USA, weak governors allow fortress mosques to be built in our communities. In their hatred of Jews, the Woke Reich are ok with Iran and Putin. The Woke Reich are the modern-day appeasers of Hitler in the 1930s, but they don't have the integrity to admit it. Also, to serve in Congress is an immense honor, but then you have pigs like Eric Swalwell and Matt "No Pants" Gaetz who get elected. Then we have Jon Ossoff, running for reelection to the Senate, who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth but trashes capitalism. He went after Trump over Iran and called assistant Natalie Harp and other aides "security blankets." Ossoff called his opponent Mike Collins and his supporters "White nationalists." Where was Jon when Joe Biden was curled up under the desk in the Oval Office? And name one thing he's done in the Senate? It's disgusting how people like Ossoff, Gaetz and Swalwell have conducted themselves while in office. Then, Prince Reza Pahlavi, son of the late Shah, was asked by a German journalist if he's an Israeli agent. He answered no but he's proud of his grandfather, who gave refuge to Jews while they were being burned in ovens in Germany. Pahlavi would be a great choice to lead an Iranian government-in-exile. Meanwhile, hardliners in the current regime have no intention of agreeing to any deal with the U.S. that doesn't give them control over the Strait of Hormuz. Russia, China and North Korean continue to pour weapons into Iran while we play defense. The regime is using this time to recalibrate and reinforce their police state. It's time to just finish them. Finally, a group of people that the Detroit Free Press describes as "anti-Muslim" held a protest ahead of a city council meeting in Dearborn, MI. The report wrote inflammatory statements about the protestors and said counter-protestors shouted antisemitic remarks. Democrats denounced the protest and expressed support for Muslims in Dearborn. Dems condemn hate, but where is the condemnation when there is crime and hate speech in New York directed at....Jews? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Jason Kander and Ravi Gupta break down the controversy surrounding Jon Ossoff's comments about Trump staffer Natalie Harp, the backlash from conservatives, and the White House's furious response. They analyze the debate over whether Ossoff crossed a line, the broader scrutiny of Harp's unusual relationship with Trump, and the hypocrisy surrounding the outrage. Kander and Gupta also dive into the latest primary election results, as Angie Nixon defeats Alex Vindman in Florida, Peltola shows strength in Alaska, and Republicans battle over the future of their party. Plus, they discuss the DNC's new presidential primary calendar, Trump's record-low approval numbers, Fox News questioning his threats against Oman, and revealing clips from Joe Rogan and Shane Gillis.

As a result, we do not offer every plan available in your area. Currently we represent 50 organizations which offer 18,160 products nationwide. We search and recommend all plans, even those we don't directly offer. You can contact a licensed Chapter agent to find out the number of products available in your specific area. Please contact Medicare.gov, 1-800-Medicare, or your local State Health Insurance Program (SHIP) to get information on all of your options.

Jon Ossoff attacks Trump for sidestepping his duties to "travel with Natalie," the White House aide known as Trump's "Human Printer," who has a suspiciously close relationship to the president. Jon, Tommy, and Lovett discuss the new line of attack and the president's response, the end of the 60-day cease-fire agreement with Iran, Trump's decision to scale back joint military exercises with South Korea, and his reaction to the horrible conditions aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln. Then, they check in on the fight to take back the Senate, Ken Paxton stealing a $1,000 pen, Mary Peltola rejecting Kamala Harris's endorsement, and a new poll in Michigan that has Abdul El-Sayed down four points to Mike Rogers. Then, Brian Poindexter, a union ironworker, talks to Tommy about his campaign to unseat disgraced congressman Max Miller of Ohio.Hate listening to ads?
