They break down the latest threats to Social Security, Trump’s push to dismantle the Department of Education, and what cuts to special education and civil rights protections could mean for students. Plus, the 2024 election autopsy is in. Why did key voter groups swing toward Trump? And what do Democrats need to do to win them back? Follow Jessica Tarlov, @JessicaTarlov.

Hey, this is Peter Kafka. I'm the host of Channels, a podcast about technology and media and how they're both changing all the time. And this week, I'm trying to figure out how Donald Trump is changing the media in Washington and the courtroom and in the boardroom. On to help me figure it all out is Sarah Fisher, the excellent Washington-based media reporter for Axios.
That's this week on Channels, wherever you get your favorite podcast. Buying a house has long been considered the best way to build wealth and move into true adulting. Isn't it? I mean, at least that's what society wants us to think. Got to get a Birkin, got to get a home, you know.
Okay, the handbag you can probably manage without. But what about a house? Surely that's actually good, right? We're going to find out this week on Explain It To Me. New episodes every Sunday morning, wherever you get your podcasts.
Welcome to Raging Moderates. I'm Sky Galloway.
And I'm Jessica Tarlow.
Jess, we are literally bigger than the NVIDIA conference. We're maybe even bigger than Taylor Swift. We have sold out in minutes the 900-seat auditorium. At the literally the Cathedral of Wokeism, the 92nd Street. We are sold out, Jessica Tarloff. I know. We are sold out.
I'm on the one hand, super excited about that. And on the other hand, upset because people can't get tickets anymore to come. And I'm getting a lot of... StubHub. Do you think the secondary market is going to be huge for us?
Well, I don't know, but I reserve 50 tickets and daddy needs new shoes. So we'll see. Daddy needs new shoes.
So you sold us out, basically.
