The Muckrake Political Podcast – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman discuss the nomination of Kash Patel to head the FBI - a curious pick considering he was a major player in the January 6th coup attempt. Nevermind that, though, he'll just be busy weaponizing the FBI to attack anyone who disagrees with the administration. Then they have to analyze Trump's intention to use the military in an attack on Mexican soil - something out of their 80's-Action-Movie addled brains. President Biden pardons his son Hunter, which ends up being the chef's kiss ending on a presidency that was... something. They finish on Amazon workers across the world striking for better working conditions and the possibility they'll get what they want/deserve.

They also pull apart some of the scenarios that might happen after the election involving a deeply troubled Supreme Court.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman recorded this immediately after the Iowa Caucus wrapped up its voting, weighing in on the surge by Nikki Haley only to still finish behind Ron DeSantis. Trump got over 50% of the vote to finish with a strong showing despite hardly campaigning in Iowa, and now it's on to New Hampshire where DeSantis will most likely end his campaign while Haley will hold on for dear life until at least South Carolina.
