    What’s Next For AI Regulation After Dems Sweep? Reps. Casar and Liccardo Weigh In

    As Democrats solidify the size and scope of their House and Senate majorities after Tuesday’s midterm blowout, the party is brainstorming how best to take advantage of its coming Congressional control. One area of focus will be passing AI regulations, an issue with some bipartisan support. But with Trump still in the White House — and warning lawmakers not to “kill the golden goose” — what can the party actually accomplish?  Two Democrats who will be key to getting any AI bill passed are Texas Rep. Greg Casar, who chairs the Congressional Progressive Caucus and has introduced a series of populist bills aimed at reigning in big tech, and California Rep. Sam Liccardo, whose Bay Area district includes a sliver of Silicon Valley. Kara talks to them about what Democrats should prioritize when it comes to AI legislation, where the party might be able to work with Republicans, and whether Congress can actually get ahead of the technology’s rapid advancement.  Please note: This episode was taped the Wednesday following the midterm elections.

    Courage vs. Capitulation: Lewis and Weisberg on Trump 2.0’s Quiet Heroes and Loud Cowards

    Authors Michael Lewis and Jacob Weisberg have built careers on writing deeply researched books about the ways human judgement shapes powerful institutions, especially the U.S. government. Their latest books are a study in contrasts. In “Profiles in Cowardice,” Weisberg scrutinizes the people in positions of great power who folded to President Donald Trump’s power grab at the start of his second term. Lewis’s “Blockers” highlights the opposite: the nameless career bureaucrats who tried to defend federal laws and norms in the early days of DOGE.  Kara, Michael and Jacob talk about the ways the second Trump administration has been dramatically different from the first, whether Elon Musk and his DOGE “musk-rats”really intended to cut $2 trillion from the federal budget, and why gutting the civil service left all of us worse off. They also talk about the upcoming midterm elections and how Democrats can work to hold the Trump administration accountable should they win back power in Congress.  Questions? Comments?

    Can Elon Musk Buy His Way Out of a Reckoning?

    With less than a week to go until Election Day, Elon Musk is once again at the center of American politics. The world's richest man has poured nearly half a billion dollars into the midterms to stave off Democratic gains. Meanwhile, Republican and Democratic lawmakers have called for an investigation following revelations that Musk restricted Ukraine’s access to Starlink. And last week, Musk threatened Kara with jail time on X after she said he could face investigations if Democrats return to power.  Kara brings together a panel of experts to unpack the business interests behind Musk’s political bets: why he's spending big on the Texas Senate race, what’s driving a potential Tesla–SpaceX merger and whether a post-election reckoning could bring accountability and check his power.  Kirsten Grind is an investigative business reporter at The New York Times covering Silicon Valley and tech executives, including Elon Musk. Catherine Rampell is the Economics Editor for The Bulwark and an MSNOW contributor. Faiz Siddiqui is a tech reporter at The Washington Post and author of the book Hubris Maximus: The Shattering of Elon Musk. Questions? Comments?
