September was the last month Congress bothered to work before the midterm elections. In this episode, we'll examine the laws signed in September, including one that significantly expands President Trump's tariff powers, the votes that revealed where members of Congress stand on the wars in Iran and Gaza, and the impeachment vote that House Speaker Mike Johnson went out of his way to prevent.

Democracy by Mail - CD346
Épisode 346
mercredi 30 septembre 2026 • Durée 01:08:41
This episode looks at two very different questions surrounding the U.S. Postal Service: how the Trump administration tried to use it to impose new requirements on mail-in voting, and whether the Postal Service itself is financially sustainable. We examine the new election-mail rule and the court fight that stopped it for 2026, then dig into what's actually driving USPS's financial problems—and whether they can be fixed.

The Slippery Slope from 9/11 - CD345
Épisode 345
samedi 19 septembre 2026 • Durée 02:16:55
Twenty-five years after 9/11, America is still sliding down the slippery slope created by the War on Terror. This episode traces how the George W. Bush, Obama, and Biden administrations built, expanded, and preserved extraordinary presidential powers in the name of fighting terrorism—and how the Trump administration is now using those powers to deprive people of liberty and protections in ways that once seemed unthinkable.

Housing for the 21st Century Act - CD344
Épisode 344
lundi 31 août 2026 • Durée 01:10:45
Congress passed a new housing law, including an attempt to limit corporate ownership of homes. We'll also examine the Senate's summer confirmations, including Todd Blanche as Attorney General, and preview troubling provisions in the NDAA—including one that would deepen U.S.-Israeli military cooperation and another that would override California to benefit a private oil pipeline.

The National Weather Service Under Fire - CD343
Épisode 343
dimanche 16 août 2026 • Durée 01:01:32
The National Weather Service is one of the few government agencies that affects every American every single day. Every weather app, television forecast, hurricane warning, tornado alert, and flood prediction depends on it. In this episode, we examine what has happened to the National Weather Service under the Trump administration, from staffing cuts and delayed weather balloon launches to contract bottlenecks, AI-driven forecasting, and growing concerns about privatization. Using congressional hearings, testimony from emergency managers, and government officials' own words, we'll separate the real improvements from the real risks facing the agency that helps keep us all safe.

Mapped to Flood - CD342
Épisode 342
lundi 27 juillet 2026 • Durée 54:12
The Texas Hill Country flood that killed 139 people was described as a natural disaster. But after digging through state legislative hearings and Congress's oversight of FEMA, I found something else: many of the deadliest consequences weren't just caused by the weather. They were the result of policy choices. This episode follows the disaster from the storm itself to the way Congress prepares—or fails to prepare—the United States for the floods to come.

Land Grabs and Cages - CD341
Épisode 341
dimanche 12 juillet 2026 • Durée 01:05:00
June brought a massive expansion of ICE and immigrant detention, failed efforts to rein in the unauthorized war with Iran, a debate over U.S. support for Israel's actions in Lebanon, and the confirmation of two controversial lifetime judges. We examine what passed, what failed, and what comes next.

CD340: No More Iran War
Épisode 340
vendredi 19 juin 2026 • Durée 46:39
In CD340: No More Iran War, Congress finally pushes back against President Trump's unauthorized war with Iran as Republicans join Democrats to pass War Powers resolutions rejecting the conflict. Jen breaks down those historic votes, the few laws Congress passed in May, and the Trump administration officials confirmed to powerful positions overseeing public lands, environmental policy, prosecutions, and the courts.

CD339: Raising Screen Zombies
Épisode 339
dimanche 31 mai 2026 • Durée 01:06:30
Children are spending more time on screens than ever before, but what is all that screen time actually doing to them? In a recent hearing, Congress heard testimony from experts who argue that social media, educational technology, and AI are reshaping childhood in ways many parents don't fully understand. This episode explores the evidence and the growing concern that we're raising a generation of screen zombies.

CD338: April 2026 — Bulldozing the Rules
Épisode 338
jeudi 14 mai 2026 • Durée 01:28:02
April 2026 gave us a Congress that took a two-week vacation, came back to vote on war powers, Israel weapons sales, FISA surveillance, DHS funding, and whether Minnesota's clean water should be protected from mining. This episode tracks what Congress actually did — including the votes, scandals, resignations, deaths, new members, and laws that tell you far more than campaign ads ever will.
