How House Republicans Are Responding To Campus Protests
Speaker of the House Mike Johnson visited Columbia University with fellow members of the House Republican conference and met with students who said they felt unsafe on campus in the midst of protests calling on the university to shed its investments related to Israel. Now, Johnson is moving forward with legislation aimed at combating campus antisemitism — though some Democrats are criticizing the effort as a political stunt that could curb legitimate criticism of the Israeli government.

Can Arizona GOP Prevent Dem Surge By Allowing Some Abortions?
A handful of Arizona Republicans are expected to join with Democratic lawmakers in order to repeal the state's near-total abortion ban. The move is an apparent effort to blunt the power of a November abortion access ballot measure that strategists say could spark a Democratic wave election in the state.

Tick-Tock, TikTok: What Makes It A National Security Threat
After a series of classified national security briefings, Congress passed a law that will ban TikTok if it is not sold by its Chinese parent company. It is not clear what specific risks they're reacting to, but experts point to a widespread, if ineffectual, state-backed disinformation effort and other data-privacy concerns.

Weekly Roundup: Hush Money, Pocket Money
The first week of testimony in Donald Trump's criminal trial in New York centered on David Packer, the tabloid mogul who says he helped quash stories in order to benefit the then-candidate's presidential bid. And in a Pennsylvania county where voters expressed concerns about inflation ahead of the 2022 midterms, people say they're still frustrated by high prices but that the economy is not necessarily the top factor in who they'll vote for come November.

Absolute Immunity?
Months after Special Counsel Jack Smith first asked the Supreme Court to weigh in on Donald Trump's claim of absolute immunity from criminal prosecution, the Supreme Court finally heard the former president's appeal. At least a few of the conservative justices seemed receptive to Trump's argument. What is unclear is whether the court will act in time to allow the federal cases against the former president to be resolved before the 2024 election.

Excellent political podcast!
A must listen. They give great insight, they are credible as they are not Fox, and not MSNBC. Keep up the good work guys!
Easy-to-Listen to, but Professional
A variety off hosts bring forth relevant political commentary that adresses the questions of listeners. As an international listener, I am always keen to listen to the podcast to keep up to date on everything to do with American politics. One issue that I sometimes have is that the commentary occasionally skews towards the left, specifically on issues of abortion and free speech.
The ONLY pluralistic democracy in the world?
Really that was a bit much.
And your show’s mission is a more informed American public, you say?
The pervasive belief in American exceptionalism coupled with and probably supported by an almost complete lack of knowledge of the rest of the world you inhabit is what’s truly exceptional. Stunning even. I doubt any of the world’s many other democracies or pluralistic societies think of themselves as singular. And few are looking to the US for tips on how to be better at either nowadays.
Indeed, we foreigners are listening in to try to figure out how US politics got so screwy.
It’s a pretty good show usually, stories are concise.
