Ep. 159 golden age, golden chaos.

Jennifer Bukowsky breaks down a week of our Golden Age involves chaos out of our so-called Golden State: California’s slow-count jungle primary mess, Jill Biden reopening the Democrats’ 2024 wound, and red states continuing to beat blue states where it counts — jobs, income, and people voting with their feet. Then Jennifer turns to Trump’s cabinet, the Supreme Court’s final stretch, and the fundamental question underneath the biggest cases of the term: who actually governs America — elected officials, unelected agencies, one district judge, or the voters? Plus: the Criminal Docket covers John Bolton’s classified-information plea deal, the latest high-profile murder cases (Luigi Mangione, Carmelo Anthony), and the legal problems that come with trying violent cases in the court of public opinion. Later, Jennifer takes on Delaney Hall, ICE, the border-funding fight, and the difference between lawful protest and mob veto. The show closes with On This Date in History, 6-7 Day, the Battle of Midway, Jerusalem, the lightning round, local events, and what’s ahead next week
