    FULL EPISODE - The Friday Edition: 2024 Ballot 10 ballot initiatives that will define the election.

However, we won’t be giving our take — the intent of this piece is to highlight a selection of ballot initiatives that tell a story about the salient issues of this election.

    The Supreme Court takes up ghost guns.

    On Tuesday, the Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Garland v. VanDerStok, a case challenging a 2022 Biden administration rule that regulated unserialized firearms, also known as “ghost guns.” A group of firearms owners, gun rights groups and manufacturers challenged the rule, arguing that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) exceeded its authority in issuing the regulation. During arguments, a majority of justices on the court seemed skeptical of the plaintiffs’ case, indicating that they would uphold the rule when they issue their decision in summer 2025.  Ad-free podcasts are here!For the last few years, we've been publishing a daily podcast similar to our newsletter and bonus content exclusively for our podcast channel.

    Donald Trump and Elon Musk

    On Saturday, the tech executive joined former President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, the site of the attempted assassination of Trump in July. Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX and the owner of X (formerly Twitter), addressed the rally’s attendees and reaffirmed his support for Trump’s candidacy while criticizing Democrats on a range of issues. Broadly, the speech exemplified Musk’s evolution from a political moderate to an outspoken advocate for the former president.  Ad-free podcasts are here!For the last few years, we've been publishing a daily podcast similar to our newsletter and bonus content exclusively for our podcast channel.

    Jack Smith's new filing on Donald Trump.

    On Wednesday, U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan unsealed special counsel Jack Smith’s latest filing in United States v. Donald Trump, concerning alleged criminal actions committed by the former president following his defeat in the 2020 presidential election. In the filing, Smith argues that Trump "resorted to crimes" to remain in power and was acting outside the scope of his official duties as president when he pressured state officials and then-Vice President Mike Pence to overturn his 2020 election loss.
