Elon’s Back, Cornyn’s Pissed, and the DNC Is Broke

The Senate is on fire, the DNC is broke, and Elon Musk is back knocking on doors. Erin Maguire and Kurt Bardella break down why Senate Republicans don’t have the votes to cancel August recess or kill the filibuster for Trump’s Save America Act, why John Cornyn is holding up Todd Blanche’s AG nomination, and why outgoing senators like Cassidy, Tillis, and Cornyn owe the president nothing. Then they dig into the socialist surge inside the Democratic primaries in Michigan and Wisconsin, debate whether “socialist” still scares voters the way it used to, and ask if Democrats actually need their left flank to win a general election to prove a point for 2028. Plus: Elon Musk’s midterm door-knocking strategy, the DNC’s cash crisis and phishing scandal under Ken Martin, whether David Hogg could return as chair, and a spirited (and colorful) debate on lowering the voting age.
