@pablo.show I'd love to hear more about why the Chiefs are moving to Kansas. I think you should interview Claire McCaskill sometime to do an episode about it. Thank you!

I’m starting to think that a lot of voters don’t care about policy issues. People instead vote based on vibes or party affiliation.

Biden’s debate was shocking but not surprising from someone in their 80s with signs of dementia. Prior to that, we saw from him two awful interviews on friendly MSNBC and regular, horrible press interactions after scripted events. I blame those close to him for not taking away the car keys.
This week on The Focus Group podcast, we're sharing raw audio of Democrats who liked Joe Biden but supported his decision to withdraw from the 2024 race.

Highly recommend this @thebulwark.bsky.social Focus Group podcast episode from @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social and @jenpsaki.msnbc.com!
I could have listened to @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social focus groups and talked with her about them for a lot longer! This was a fun one
Super-sized episode with @jenpsaki.msnbc.com and voters who sat out the 2024 election. It’s a good one!

@mcfaulmike.bsky.social @admiralstav.bsky.social @anneapplebaum.bsky.social Trump has said that he wants NATO members to spend 5% of GDP on defense. Isn't Ukraine spending far more than that. And if so, could they possibly leverage that in negotiations for a ceasefire and NATO membership? Thanks!
