It’s Hump Day! Sam, Emma, and the MR Crew are breaking down some of the biggest news stories of the day and taking your calls in the show's first hour! First, they run through updates on ceasefire in Lebanon, Trump’s developing cabinet, Mexico’s President Sheinbaum’s retaliatory tariff plan, the Trump transition team, Democrats’ growing number in the House, Amazon workers’ international Black Friday strike, the battle between North Carolina’s governor and supermajority legislature, Maine’s lawsuit against ExxonMobil, Shell and Chevron, Pakistan’s crackdown on Imran Khan supporters, Ukrainian support for ending the war, and Trump’s plan to further defund IRS enforcement on wealthy people, before expanding on the great politics behind the Israel-Hezbollah ceasefire, why it’s a major win for Israel – especially in winning over France’s rejection of the ICC warrants. After watching notorious ghoul Matthew Miller explain why it’s actually totally okay to hold Israel to a different standard for war crimes, they chat with Bree from New York about the relationship between Trump and the GOP, and dive deep into the major failings of the Biden-Harris campaigns, parsing through reflections from campaign leaders like David Plouffe and Stephanie Cutter as they dissect Democrats’ inability to run a campaign in an era of disillusionment where low-propensity voters are key. Phillip from New York has some updates on the threat of Bird Flu heading into influenza season.

And in the Fun Half, the MR Crew check in with Rudy Giuliani, who (according to him) is flat broke and who (according to a courtroom sketch artist) is going insane in court and refusing to listen to legal counsel or the judge presiding over him. They then check out Marc Andreessen lying about the CFPB to Joe Rogan, as well as Vivek Ramaswamy's "DOGE" committee, which Fareed Zakaria is apparently super pumped about. Plus, your calls & IM's!
