About this episode

It was a big night for Michigan Democrats, as progressive candidate Abdul El-Sayed beat US Representative Haley Stevens in the race for a seat in the Senate this fall. But what did we actually learn from El-Sayed’s victory? Was this a win for progressives? A shot at the establishment? Is he too liberal to win in November? And what does this say about the midterms? Everyone has an opinion… but not all of them are good. To hear more about which takes we should be listening to, we spoke to Jon Favreau. He’s the co-host of Pod Save America . And in headlines, President Trump tells reporters a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz could come this week , the US is seeing more possible cyber attacks targeting water systems , and the Trump Administration is giving tariff refunds ! But Americans are unlikely to see any of the money.
