Run For Something's Amanda Litman joins host Molly Jong-Fast for an anti-election-anxiety episode of Fast Politics, laying out what Democrats should learn even if they win big, from rebuilding trust and focusing on accountability to being honest about what Congress can actually deliver and investing in state-level organizing and better candidate recruitment instead of just federal advertising. Later, Better Offline's Ed Zitron makes the case that the AI boom is a bubble built on unsustainable economics, with rising costs, slowing growth and overhyped data centers that people increasingly oppose because they bring high energy use, tax abatements and few local benefits. The episode also covers Haley Stevens' political reversal, Trump's failed election-related legal efforts, and other headlines about power, corruption and the instability of both parties.
