Trump Goes Bananas

Reeling from the Epstein crisis, Donald Trump turns even more
erratic and destructive—launching a grand jury investigation into
the make-believe crimes of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton,
threatening to seize control of the D.C. police, and sharing some
eugenicist theories about who's suited for what kind of work. Jon
and Dan share how they're feeling eight months into Trump 2.0,
check in on MAGA's efforts to rig the congressional map ahead of
the 2026 midterms, and react to DHS reinstating its infamous
family separation policy. Dan talks with epidemiologist Michael
Osterholm about RFK Jr.'s decision to halt federal research into
mRNA vaccines—and then confronts Jon about his ill-advised
Twitter fight with Megyn Kelly.
