【 What We Talked About】

In this episode, we recap the big and small stories in American politics from the past two weeks. The Minnesota immigration enforcement crisis saw new developments as the controversial Bovino was removed and Homan took over operations, but internal power struggles within DHS and a looming funding crisis remain unresolved. The release of 3.5 million pages of Epstein files continues to generate shockwaves. Trump drew bipartisan criticism after posting a racist video, with his approval ratings hitting new lows.

Meanwhile, Trump openly called for federal takeover of local elections, and the FBI raided the Fulton County election center with Director of National Intelligence Gabbard on site. A deep-red Texas state senate district saw a stunning nearly 30-point swing in a special election, offering early signals for the midterms. And the Washington Post laid off over 300 newsroom employees as its CEO was forced to resign — raising the question of what lies ahead for this storied institution under Bezos's ownership.

This episode was recorded on the evening of February 7, 2026 (US time).
