Mike Allen and Jim VandeHei: A brand new presidential race

1 big thing

"Nothing, nothing, can come in the way of saving our democracy. That includes personal ambition." President Biden explained his move to the American people in an address Wednesday night.

Axios co-founders Mike Allen and Jim VandeHei take us inside their reporting.

Guests: Axios co-founders Mike Allen and Jim VandeHei, authors of the Axios "Behind the Curtain" column
