This quickly became one of my favorite podcasts. Carville and Hunt know everybody and have the depth of experience to cut through the noise and make sense of the firehouse of issues and developments that the scary/upending Trump administration brings.
James and Al love those Manchin Democrats

Did you believe they were, Senator Slotkin, when you voted to confirm Scott Bessent who put out the Welcome Sign for Musk and his Doge-stersto raid the Treasury? Doyou think it gives you leverage with the Second Reich to be among the five Senate Democrats whose votes have most frequently supported his nominees and policy agenda?
The best!
