#23 - Trump's Terrible 41st Week

Michael Regilio and Travis Clyburn roundup the week. A man in D.C. beats a federal assault charge after allegedly weaponizing a sandwich, ExxonMobil gets caught red-handed funding climate denial think tanks across Latin America. Vice President JD Vance’s presidential ambitions get outed by Marco Rubio, Nancy Mace has a meltdown at an airport, and the Supreme Court toys with rolling back marriage equality. Meanwhile, Donald Trump hands out pardons like party favors to a Tennessee Republican convicted of public corruption, and to a Nevada politician who blew charity funds meant to honor a fallen police officer on cosmetic surgery. ICE agents in Los Angeles arrest a man, then inexplicably drive off with his toddler in the back seat. And the Heritage Foundation’s Project 2025 mastermind apologizes after backing Tucker Carlson’s podcast with actual Nazi Nick Fuentes. @michaelregilio
