  • Grow Up, Jon.

    I’ve always loved this poscast but am ao annoyed by Jon Lovett’s outbursts in the live Melborne shows, where he rants about Australia having a Governor General.

    With all the overconfidence of a high school debator or J. D. Vance, Lovett says some pretty horrendous things about Prince Charles and urges the country to “finish the revolution” like the US has.

    Jon, since you clearly didn’t get the memo, the US lost the right to lecture any country about democracy a long time ago.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

1114: Minneapolis is a Turning Point
Q: What is your level of alarm in relation to what you expected?
I'm shocked by what Congress has done, what the court has not done, what tech bros have done, and what the corporations have done.
1116: Epstein Files: Worse Than You Thought
Q: What do you think happened and is it irresponsible to read tea leaves and try to divine what this says about 2026?
I think a little bit of both. It's good news. It really is because Trump won my district by 17.9 points.
1109: What It Would Take to Rein in ICE
Q: What legal recourse does the state actually have here?
The state of Minnesota and affected citizens could potentially sue federal officers under state law or seek judicial review of actions taken by ICE agents.
1109: What It Would Take to Rein in ICE
Q: What checks are supposed to be in place as far as detention?
Congressional oversight is a key check on ICE detention practices, but this administration has pushed back against such oversight.
1109: What It Would Take to Rein in ICE
Q: Can you give us a kind of legal breakdown on what it actually means to invoke the Insurrection Act and what powers that actually confers?
The Insurrection Act allows the president to use military forces in domestic situations where state law enforcement is perceived to be unable to maintain order.
