Kara and Maggie talk about the startling scale of disinformation coming out of the White House, Trumps ambivalent relationship to Supreme Court rulings and democratic norms, and his ever-widening campaign of retribution against institutions and individuals, (including pop stars like Maggie favorite, Bruce Springsteen). They also revisit Habermans prescient analysis from earlier this year that Stephen Miller is wielding immense power within the administration and discuss whether Elons power is shrinking or he is simply slipping out of public view. This episode was taped on the afternoon of Tuesday, May 27th, before Elon Musk spoke out against the omnibus bill and Russia proposed to hold peace talks with Ukraine. See less
