Competence Prevails

On the Gist, deciphering the Zodiac Killer's last message. And, today in Remembrances of Things Trump: Trump trying to make Andrew Puzder his Labor Secretary. In the interview, the first part of Mike's discussion with writer Matthew Yglesias. They talk about how the world of online media has changed since Yglesias founded Vox, and begin to get into his argument about certain parts of the Democratic platform that alienated Hispanic voters and pushed them towards Trump. Tomorrow, they'll go deeper on the complex analysis of voters of color, and why it seems harder to disagree with progressive thought than it used to be. Yglesias' Substack newsletter is Slow Boring. In the spiel, competent judges kept the U.S. in check. Email us at [email protected] Podcast production by Daniel Schroeder and Margaret Kelley.
