About this episode
Andrew Walworth, Carl Cannon and RCP White House correspondent Phil Wegmann discuss whether President Trump will sign on to new sanctions against Russia, and a just released audio recording of Trump at a 2024 fundraiser shows the president informing donors that he once told Vladimir Putin he’d bomb Moscow if Russia invaded Ukraine. They also talk about CIA Director John Ratcliffe’s decision to refer former CIA director John Brennan and former FBI Director James Comey for criminal investigation. Plus, new polls suggest that the President’s budget bill is unpopular with voters and may impact Republicans in the 2026 midterms. Then, Carl talks with Nancy Jacobson, founder and CEO of No Labels and Ryan Clancy, chief strategist for No Labels about the organization’s efforts to launch a third party, and about Elon Musk’s current attempt. And finally, Andrew talks to Michael O’Neill, vice president of legal affairs at the Landmark Legal Foundation, about federal judges continuing their efforts to block Trump policies, despite a recent Supreme Court decision designed to limit their power to do so.
