About this episode
Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan, and Carl Cannon discuss reports of a “secret” peace plan that is being negotiated by President Donald Trump’s special envoy Steve Witkoff and his Russian counterparts without input from Ukraine. Then, they talk about fallout from yesterday’s Oval Office comments by President Trump and Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman about the murder of Saudi dissident and journalist Jamal Khashoggi. Next, RCP White House reporter Phil Wegmann joins the guys to discuss what's next in the efforts to compel the Justice Department to release documents related to the Epstein case. And, they chat about Trump’s relations with the press: he insults Bloomberg reporter Catherine Lucey, calling her “piggy” on Air Force One, and during yesterday’s Oval Office press opportunity, he tells ABC News White House reporter Mary Bruce that the FCC should revoke the network’s license. Then finally, they discuss the state of the redistricting battle across the country, including Texas where Republicans have filed an appeal to the Supreme Court challenging a federal three-judge panel’s rejection of the most recent remapping of the state’s congressional districts.
