Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

'Useless, junk prosecutions': legal analyst on DOJ's Reflecting Pool case
Q: If you were still acting as a prosecutor, could you have made the case for vandalism here?
I could not, because the standard requires proven evidence of malicious intent to injure or destroy property, and none of the participants were credibly shown to have committed vandalism; presenting a label without backing facts risks overreach and undermines the integrity of the prosecution.
Ranking intel Democrat calls Trump's speech "more brazen" than expected
Q: Congressman, you said more brazen than you thought. What was the most brazen part?
The most brazen element was the assertion that the elections were corrupted, when the evidence shows the opposite; it also involved presenting selective intelligence to mischaracterize the integrity of the process, something that undermines trust in democratic institutions.
DOJ subpoenas New York Times reporters
Q: So, David, what have we learned since the initial reports about the subpoenas?
David Folkenflik explains that the story centers on the extraordinary step of subpoenas issued with alleged White House involvement, the impact on newsroom sources, and the Times' continued defense of its reporters while awaiting further legal clarifications or court intervention.
National Guard deployment in D.C. extended until 2029
Q: What are the cost implications of keeping this mission going through 2029?
Estimates from the Congressional Budget Office suggest major daily costs per guard member, which, at current troop levels, amount to billions over the years, though officials could reduce numbers to lower costs or increase them.
National Guard deployment in D.C. extended until 2029
Q: Remind us about this deployment and what's it like in DC these days?
The deployment began last August after a crime-emergency declaration; thousands of National Guard members from about 20 states have been deployed, deputized as special police, engaging in presence patrols, and the operation has continued with an extended timeline despite questions about necessity and impact.
