Votes are still being tallied for Oakland's Special Election that will determine who will finish out the term left vacant after former mayor Sheng Thao was recalled last fall. As of Wednesday, former Oakland City Councilmember Loren Taylor held a narrow lead over former U.S. representative Barbara Lee. Taylor campaigned as someone who knows the local issues and politics and can move the city forward. Lee represented Oakland in Congress for nearly 27 years and promised to bring more funding to address the city's pressing needs. Final results could take several weeks using Oakland's ranked-choice voting system. We'll look at the latest results and talk about this unusual race and the future of Oakland.

Cory Booker's 25-hour filibuster, and a potential 2026 California governor's race showdown between two Biden administration alumni.First, they're relieved to see Republicans comfortably hold both open House seats in Florida. However, they wince as Democrats celebrate an easy win in Wisconsin's Supreme Court race, securing a liberal majority. While the left downplays the Florida results, Jim and Greg remind listeners that Democrats previously claimed they had a shot at flipping at least one seat. Meanwhile, Republicans must learn key lessons from Wisconsin ahead of the midterms.Next, they analyze New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker's record-breaking 25-hour floor speech, which was long but was not aimed at blocking any legislation or nomination. While Democrats and the media hype it as energizing for their base, it's long term impact is likely minimal at best. Jim and Greg do marvel at Booker's endurance and explain why he will probably benefit from this more than anyone.Finally, they examine former Health and Human Services Sec. Xavier Becerra's entry into the 2026 California governor's race. While some candidates say they would defer if former Vice President Kamala Harris entered the race, Becerra insists he's staying in. Does this signal Harris won't run? Or could it set up a fierce showdown between former Biden administration allies?Please visit our great sponsors:No missed calls, no missed customers with OpenPhone.

The idea that the government should be run more like a business isn’t new. But with two businessmen, Donald Trump and Elon Musk, now taking a proverbial chainsaw to the federal bureaucracy all in the name “efficiency,” this theory is being put to the test. While it’s an appealing idea, Philip Joyce, professor of public policy at the University of Maryland School of Public Policy, said governments can’t afford to take risks the way businesses can. On the show today, Joyce explains the origins of the idea that the government should be run like a business, how we define “success” differently for the two entities, and how the way Trump and Musk do business is showing up in the White House. Then, we’ll break down the high stakes of today’s special elections in Wisconsin and Florida. Plus, reflections on serendipitous moments in walkable communities and what we gain by admitting we were wrong. Here’s everything we talked about today: “Why Running the Government Like a Business Would Be a Disaster” from The New York Times “The US Government Is Not a Startup” from Wired “The US Postal Service has been struggling for years. Now Trump’s talking about privatizing it” from AP News “DOGE wants businesses to run government services ‘as much as possible'” from The Washington Post “UPDATE: RECOVER Long COVID pathobiology grants restored” from The Sick Times “NIH restores some long COVID grants” from C&EN “What to Watch in Wisconsin's Supreme Court Election and Florida's Special Elections” from The New York Times “What to watch for Tuesday in Wisconsin's high-stakes Supreme Court race and special elections in Florida” from CNN Politics “Control of the Wisconsin Supreme Court is at stake in race that’s drawn powerful political interests” from AP News “Volume 52 | Issue 1 | February 2025” from the American Ethnological Society Got a question or comment for the hosts?

It's Election Day in two states, where voters are prepared to cast their ballots for races that could shape the balance of power in Washington and have major ramifications for one state's judicial system. In Florida, two vacancies in Congress have sparked special elections on April 1, and polling favors the Republican Party in both races. In the Wisconsin Supreme Court race, the election could determine if the court flips into conservative control. Former White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer joins to explain why he is expecting positive outcomes for the GOP. President Trump's "reciprocal tariffs" are scheduled to kick in tomorrow on imports from any country that charges more than the United States. Pennsylvania Senate Republican Dave McCormick joins the Rundown to explain why he's optimistic Americans will benefit from Trump's tariff strategy in the long term. He also discusses the Trump tax cuts, his relationship with Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman, and what inspired the book he co-wrote with his wife, Dina Powell McCormick, “Who Believed In You: How Purposeful Mentorship Changes The World.” Plus, commentary from FOX News Digital columnist David Marcus.

It's Monday! Sam and Emma are joined by Dave Weigel, politics writer at Semafor, author of the "Americana" newsletter to preview the first round of major elections after the Trump/Musk regime's DOGE overhaul. First, they run through updates on Trump's tariffs, a return of stagflation, the rejection of Mike Waltz, the conviction of Marine Le Pen, DOGE's Social Security crash, RFK's gutting of infection disease and HIV/AIDS policy, Tesla protests, Tesla fires, Iran's response to Trump, and the Senate GOP's budget push, before expanding on Trump's authoritarian crackdown on migrants and watching Elon attempt to rally a Wisconsin crowd of sycophants. Dave Weigel then joins, reflecting on the rapid radicalization of the race for the last seat Wisconsin Supreme Court since the injection of over $20 million of Elon Musk's money, going from the culmination of a decade-long battle by Wisconsin Democrats to break down the GOP gerrymander to a full-scale (in Elon's words) battle for the “future of civilization.” After expanding on the more personal stakes Elon Musk has in the makeup of the Wisconsin Supreme Court, and why, despite that, the messaging has almost entirely centered on supporting Trump's agenda, Weigel, Sam, and Emma shift to the upcoming special elections in Florida, as they unpack the fear the GOP is facing over their dwindling margins over the last few months, highlighting some particularly brutal campaigning from Democrat Josh Weil against “unhinged,” “anti-American” Randy Fine, and the importance of tying the Right to Musk's anti-Medicaid, anti-Social Security agenda. Wrapping up, Dave touches on the potential GOP response if these margins continue to shrink, and how DOGE has allowed them to change their messaging. And in the Fun Half: Emma tackles the Trump/Musk agenda of boosting the immigration of *white* South Africans to the US, unpacks the Working Family Party's endorsement of four candidates for New York City Mayor, and watches Zohran Mamdani continue to absolutely nail his messaging campaign. The MR Team also touches on Vivian Wilson's appearance with Hasan, growing regret from MAGA-voting federal workers, before taking a few calls to unpack Trump's Greenland push, the devastating impact of Trump's authoritarian crackdown on DACA Dreamers, and Canada's Mark Carney, plus, your IMs!

They also highlight the high-stakes Wisconsin Supreme Court race, where Democratic turnout appears to be stronger. Plus, they note additional concerns over an upcoming Florida House race. But Jim says the good news is that the GOP still has time to recover in both Wisconsin and Florida.Next, they dive into The Atlantic's publication of Signal messages from Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, revealing details about planned U.S. military actions against the Houthis. National Security Adviser Michael Waltz downplayed the report by noting critical details that were not included in Hegseth's comments. So where does this debate stand now?Finally, they react to a former Jill Biden media staffer's claims that President Biden's press team not only demanded to know reporters' questions in advance but also dictated which interview quotes could be published after the conversations took place.  Please visit our great sponsors:This spring, get up to 50% off select plants plus an extra 15% off your first purchase at Fast Growing Trees with code MARTIN at https://fastgrowingtrees.com/Martini
