The Economist's Owen Winter joins host Molly Jong-Fast to explain how data centers became a surprisingly important election issue, feeding voters' frustrations with big corporations, AI and a Trump administration that seems out of touch, and why so many counties and state governments passed moratoriums on data centers in response to the backlash. He also breaks down the huge Democratic blue wave, driven by unusually high turnout from Black, Hispanic and young voters along with some Republican voters switching sides, which produced big wins in places like Texas and Mississippi and left several polls missing in Democrats' favor. Later the conversation turns to the Democratic leadership fights and Chuck Schumer's future, a string of Trump-world controversies involving Todd Blanche, Susie Wiles, Calley Means and Pete Hegseth, and the lack of oversight on AI after Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang admitted an affair with a Chinese spy.

The Lincoln Project's Rick Wilson joins host Molly Jong-Fast to make the case that Stephen Miller's rise inside the Trump White House signals a more extreme, self-destructive phase for the Republican Party, with Miller and Trump doubling down on authoritarianism, racism and chaos instead of learning from the election results. He argues that Trump has failed to deliver on his promises to lower prices, release the Epstein files and end foreign wars, and that this will push the GOP further off the cliff as investigations mount and more Republicans try to distance themselves. He also predicts that Democrats can benefit by focusing on affordability and accountability, while vulnerable figures like Pete Hegseth, RFK Jr. and other Trump allies face growing backlash and political fallout.
