Jonathan Lemire, co-host of Morning Joe on MSNBC; writer for MSNBC and contributing writer to The Atlantic, talks about the latest national political news, including Sen. Joni Ernst's "we are all going to die" response to constituents' concerns over Medicaid cuts, what's brewing for Democrats regarding the 2028 election and more.

In this week's Espresso Martini, Chris and Matt dig into a wave of elections across the UK, Canada, and Australia, exploring what they signal for populist movements, center-left parties, and Trump-style politics beyond US borders. They break down the rise of Reform UK, growing concerns over Nigel Farage's influence, and why British voters seem caught in a cycle of backlash politics. Then, a pair of liberal wins in Canada and Australia suggest that even the faintest whiff of Trumpism remains a liability overseas. Finally, they dissect the demotion of Mike Waltz, explain why combining the roles of secretary of state and national security advisor is historically fraught, and ask whether the Trump White House has learned anything—or simply become more ruthless in its chaos. All that, plus Larry the Cat for PM, the specter of Musk in British politics, and an earnest thank-you to recent reviewers.

The Trump administration's national security team is in place, and the intelligence community is feeling the shock.

They discuss the FBI shake-up under Kash Patel and Dan Bongino, Musk's DOGE operatives posing an unprecedented counterintelligence risk, and whether Five Eyes can survive another four years.

Then-Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey banned them in 2019. Now, owner and Chair Elon Musk is officially bringing back political ads from parties and candidates to the company he renamed X, expanding its push into cause-based advertising. The move could boost revenue; some big brands have been less than eager to buy ads on the platform since Musk took over. X didn’t respond to a request for comment by the time of taping, but it has said it plans to expand its safety and elections team ahead of the 2024 elections in the United States. That, of course, would come after deep staff cuts. For analysis, Marketplace’s Lily Jamali had a chat with Jonathan Lemire, host of “Way Too Early” on MSNBC and the White House bureau chief at Politico, and Katie Harbath, a fellow at the Bipartisan Policy Center.

Think of the battles of just the last few years. The biggest fights over Covid mandates took place in the suburbs – not in rural Pennsylvania, where most people went about their business. Not in Philadelphia, where many could walk to stores or order takeout or delivery, as they did frequently even before the lockdowns.” You can read the Ciarrocchi's full article here: https://www.realclearpennsylvania.com/articles/2023/05/01/the_suburbs_are_pulling_us_apart_896859.html 4:05pm- During ABC's This Week, George Stephanopoulos noted a “brutal” Washington Post/ABC News poll for President Joe Biden—indicating a struggling approval rating, concerns about his age, and a projected 2024 loss in a hypothetical rematch with former President Donald Trump. 4:20pm- According to a report from Politico, the Biden Admin is “bracing for impact” as the Justice Department determines whether or not to charge Hunter Biden.

They point out the president's top rival, Donald Trump, was just indicted himself. But people close to Biden still worry about the personal toll it will take on a father who has already felt anguish about a son's struggles amid a long history of family tragedy.” You can read Lemire's article here: https://www.politico.com/news/2023/05/06/bracing-for-impact-biden-world-preps-for-hunter-biden-fallout-00095636 4:30pm- Appearing on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) explained that he plans to hold a press conference on Wednesday where he will reveal bank records indicating that the Biden family may have taken money from foreign adversaries. 4:40pm- While appearing on PBS's Firing Line with Margaret Hoover, legendary actor Richard Dreyfuss was critical of the “diversity mandates” adopted by the Academy Awards.
