Today's presenting sponsor is SimpliSafe Home Security. I think we all agree that being proactive is better than being reactive. Oh boy. Being reactive is Mitch McConnell opposing pieces of Trump's policy agenda in 2025 and talking him in the press.
That whole glitch thing.
Being proactive would have been, you know, preventing him from becoming president again when he was the literal Senate majority leader. That would have been good, yeah, impeach him. In much the same way, SimpliSafe's proactive security is better than traditional reactive security. We love SimpliSafe. You know, John Lovett set it up himself. He raves about it.

The November elections are a month away, and this week we're going to talk about Gavin Newsom's ballot measure here in California to neutralize Republican gerrymandering.
And then you'll hear Tommy's interview with Ben Smith at Semaphore about the impact of Barry Weiss taking over at CBS News, how Donald Trump's media filter may be impacting his decisions, and whether the ABC News Jimmy Kimmel saga has changed corporate media. But let's start with the president's war against blue America, which has now come to Chicago and Portland.
I'll just quickly go through the facts of what's been happening on the ground and then you guys can respond. In Chicago, armed federal agents have been engaged in military style immigration raids. They're calling Operation Midway Blitz.
