After several contentious legislative sessions and a widening ideological divide within the Republican Party, Texas House Speaker Joe Straus stepped down leaving the chamber without a leader. Representative Dennis Bonnen, of Angleton --- which is 50 miles south of Houston --- announced this week he has the votes to win the position. Party Politics co-hosts Jay Aiyer and Brandon Rottinghaus discuss the importance of this change in leadership for the parties, politics, and policy in... Read More
The very public spat between deputy national security adviser Mira Ricardel and First Lady Melania Trump began with the first lady's Africa trip last month.
The Florida recount is a mess. Why? Because it's not about a recount. It's about whether or not we count legal votes alone. Tony Katz can't believe he has to explain this to people, but here we are. First Lady Melania Trump wants Deputy NSA Mira Ricardel fired because of the way Ricardel treated her staff, and potential leaks the deputy made that were disparaging to the First Lady. Monica Lewinsky is in the news, making a docu-series about her sexual relationship with former President Bill Clinton. Are we supposed to care? Are we supposed to give Bill a pass? And the military needs serious upkeep.

I realized this morning that I know Mira Ricardel, the woman Melania Trump is trying to get fired from the National Security Council. Mira Ricardel (then-Baratta) and I worked together in the US Senate in the late 1980s and early 1990s when we both handled arms control issues, she for Bob Dole and me for Ted Stevens. I wanted to talk a bit about my memory of Mira -- she wasn't terribly nice back then either -- but also about an incident that happened to her when we were on my first arms control congressional delegation (codel) in December of 1989, when a top US embassy official openly discriminated against Mira for being a woman. All of this colors my views of Mira today. Hope you'll find it interesting. You can subscribe to our podcast on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/join/UnPresidentedPodcast?
Melania Trump brukar hålla sig i bakgrunden, men inte längre. Efter att ha krävt att den vice nationella säkerhetsrådgivaren Mira Ricardel ska få sparken har presidenthustrun skapat rikligt med rubriker. Någon som redan har fått sparken är Jeff Sessions. Ända sedan han klev åt sidan i Rysslandsutredningen har Trump uttryckt sin besvikelse över honom. Så vad händer med Rysslandsutredningen med den tillfällige justitieministern Whitaker vid rodret? Roland Poirier Martinsson, författare, Kajsa Boglind, korrespondent i USA, Anders Ask, utrikesredaktör på Ekot och Ginna Lindberg, Ekots utrikeschef, analyserar vad omflyttningarna får för politiska betydelser. Det har också visat sig att mellanårsvalet inte är riktigt över. I minst två delstater, Georgia och Florida, ser det ut att bli en juridisk strid som kan dra ut på tiden. Och så undrar vi varför halva USA håller andan när domaren Ruth Bader Ginsburg trillar och bryter tre revben? Programledare: Sara Stenholm Pihl Producent: Åsa Secher
First Lady Melania Trump takes out West Wing employee Mira Ricardel for fucking with her travel arrangements. Billionaire Boys Club: Jeff Bezos and Amazon announce their new headquarters in Long Island City, NY and Crystal City, VA, and Elon Musk touts the sewer building abilities of his Boring Co. Thousands of herpes infested recess monkeys are terrorizing a park in central Florida; and other headlines, including California wildfires, smart toilets, and an illegal immigration bust.
