About this episode
Democrats notched some critical victories in last night’s elections, while Desantis had a very bad night. We’ll dive into the returns. North Carolina Republicans pushed through a restrictive abortion law, overriding the Governor’s veto. How did a purple state yield a Republican supermajority – and what will this all mean for the women of North Carolina? We’ll then turn to the debt limit fight. Biden and members of congress are set to meet today. How close are they to compromise? And if they can’t, can Biden just ignore the debt ceiling? Some legal scholars say yes. Then: As we predicated, CNN totally screwed up their Trump town hall. We’ll size up the arguments for and against their decision to “platform” Trump — and give you our take. Finally, Elon Musk is under fire for suppressing speech in Turkey on the eve of a critical election. Is this self-proclaimed free speech hero prioritizing his wallet over his values? Will his newly announced replacement as CEO make any bit of a difference? This is Majority 54! Find your corner office comfort.
