John talks about the National Guard taking the streets in Washington D.C. after Trump's crime crackdown ramps up. He also discusses the White House playing up the pomp and spectacle of Trump meeting with Putin in Alaska while simultaneously playing down the chance for any real progress toward peace in the Russia-Ukraine war. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will NOT be at the meeting but DID tell reporters in Kyiv in no uncertain terms his country will not cede land to Russia just so they have a staging area for their next invasion. Then, he speaks with Professor Corey Brettschneider about Trump's recent authoritarian tactics which are shifting from a “soft coup” to a “hard coup,” with hallmarks of a violent takeover: using the military to control local police, deploying the FBI for political ends, and undermining judicial independence.

On this episode: Seattle's August 5th mayoral primary produced unexpected results, with incumbent Bruce Harrell—endorsed by the governor and congressional delegation—currently trailing progressive organizer Katie Wilson. The city hasn't re-elected a mayor since 2005, and this tight race looks as if that pattern could continue. As mail-in ballots are counted through mid-August, the contest centers on key issues, such as Harrell's public safety record and Wilson's housing proposal to open 4,000 emergency units through tiny homes. Multiple incumbents across Seattle races are also trailing their challengers, from city attorney to council president, suggesting potential changes in leadership coming down the road. Seattle's results may offer insights into Democratic voter preferences in this heavily blue city as the general election approaches in November.Follow along with the primary results: https://ballotpedia.org/Mayoral_election_in_Seattle,_Washington_(2025) Complete a brief 5 minute survey to review the show and share some feedback: https://forms.gle/zPxYSog5civyvEKX6 Sign up for our Newsletters: https://ballotpedia.org/Ballotpedia_Email_Updates Stream "On the Ballot" on Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Kudlow emphasizes the importance of public safety as a driver for economic health and business retention. He also discusses the dollar's weakness against the Euro, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's policies, and Trump's ongoing influence on economic direction, including tariffs and interest rates.
