James and Al expose the latest developments from the Epstein Files and game out their political ramifications before welcoming Catherine Rampell, The Bulwark’s economics editor, and MS NOW Anchor, to review the state of the economy, looking at why the effects of tariffs have been muted, financial strategies the Republicans might pursue, the danger posed by the national debt, and the perils of AI.
Then SC Senate candidate Dr. Annie Andrews joins to plan her victory over Lindsey Graham. They discuss her career in medicine, why she’s running, her policy positions, how to fix our healthcare system, and possible attack lines against her opponent.

Here is it all in a nutshell. A bunch of filth known as billionaires and corporate pedophiles raped a bunch of girls more than a decade to go and none of them were brought to justice. It looks as though our laws don’t mean shit when it comes to the filthy rich privileged Bastards who run this country. Perhaps it would be a better idea to just have the military drag every filthy rich person out of their homes And do the same thing with everybody in the Trump orbit and lock them up and take their money.
There’s a word for that and that word is justice. Do you numbskulls understand that the law no longer functions in the United States because we are not even a functioning republic let alone a functioning democracy.
Get familiar with a golden rule eggheads the guys with the gold make the rules. Do you need somebody to explain that to you?
Unless and until billionaires and corporations are held accountable which would mean through a lot of those fuckers in jail, nothing is going to change. Americans and people are on the world are still gonna get fucked every day by the one percent. If suddenly all those fuckers were to drop dead things would change But that’s not gonna happen. If the courts haven’t fixed this by now it’s not gonna happen so stop trying to bullshit us into thinking this will ever get resolved by the courts. It won’t.
