Scott and Jessica break down the first 100 days of Trump’s second term — from mass deportations and trade wars to the arrest of judges and shaky Ukraine peace talks. Plus, they dig into the state of the press after a tense White House Correspondents’ Dinner and the rise of MAGA media.

Why Democrats Need to Focus On the Economy (feat. Rep. Jared Moskowitz)
Jessica is joined by Florida Congressman Jared Moskowitz for a candid, fiery, and unexpectedly funny conversation about the state of American politics—from legislative wins to messaging missteps. They dive into his bipartisan work with Rep. Byron Donalds to reform FEMA, efforts to expand the Child Tax Credit, and opposition to Pentagon research cuts. Moskowitz also reflects on the FSU shooting and how the Marjory Stoneman Douglas Act became a national reform model. Then, Jess and Jared unload on Democrats’ fixation with “20% issues,” their weak economic messaging, and how the GOP keeps outplaying them. Moskowitz drops truth bombs on media distractions, misallocated campaign dollars, and why the next generation of public servants might want to study PR, not poli-sci.

The Art of the Trade War
Scott and Jessica break down the chaos surrounding Trump’s economic and immigration agendas. First, they dive into Trump’s trade war U-turn: after rattling global markets, he’s hit pause on his “reciprocal” tariff strategy—everywhere but China. They unpack what this 90-day freeze actually means and whether there’s any real strategy behind the whiplash. Next, they turn to Congress, where Trump’s legislative priorities are moving forward—but not without serious drama. With deep Medicaid cuts, clean energy rollbacks, and massive tax extensions on the table, are Republicans undermining their own voters just to make the numbers work? And finally, the administration’s deportation crackdown takes a disturbing turn—adding undocumented immigrants to a federal "death" list and triggering a legal showdown with El Salvador.
