About this episode
Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan, and RCP White House correspondent Phil Wegmann discuss the arrest of Wisconsin judge Hannah Dugan on obstruction charges after she allegedly helped an illegal immigrant evade FBI agents who were waiting outside her courtroom. Then, after yesterday’s deadly Russian attack on Kyiv, they wonder: is Donald Trump going to push Russia for concessions at the peace table? Plus, they joke about this weekend’s 2025 White House Correspondents’ Dinner, and poke fun with this week’s “You Can’t Be Serious” segment. Next, Tom Bevan talks to Stuart Taylor, Jr., president of Princetonians for Free Speech and an RCP contributor, about the Trump administration’s decision to suspend hundreds of millions of dollars in grants to the university over its treatment of Jewish students. And closing up the week, RCP Contributor Charlie Stone talks to Peter Beinart, author of Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza: A Reckoning about the founding of the Jewish state, the current situation in Gaza, and the chances for peace.
