In the Weeds with Alabama Daily News

Todd, Claire, Trish and Alex talk through the evolving issue of redistricting after the monumental Supreme Court ruling on Louisiana's congressional map.

Todd, Mary, Alex, Trish and Claire to catch up on all the things. The DHS funding deal. New polling in the U.S. Senate race. And, of course, the crazy week that was in the Alabama Legislature.

The ADN gang is all here catching up on the latest inside Alabama government and politics.

For the first time in a while, we have a full slate of ADN team members on the podcast, just in time for the legislative session!

The gang is back talking about the week that was in Alabama government and politics. Trish has details on her reporting on the CHOOSE Act and how student enrollment is down in Alabama. Alex checks in from DC on how the shutdown is going (or not, as it were), campaign finance reports, and the redistricting case before the Supreme Court. Mary talks about her reporting on the ABC Board warehouse issue and the HB2 visa policy update. And I interject with generally unwanted commentary. Listen below.

A new episode of In the Weeds is out this morning. Mary, Trish, Alex and I talk about the latest goings on in Alabama politics, from the shutdown to who's running for what and the impact of the ALFA endorsements. Listen below or wherever you get your podcasts.

Mary, Trish, Alex and Todd catch up on the last week of news in Alabama politics, including state lawmakers' field trip to Washington, new laws taking effect as the school year begins, the renewed proposal to allow the death penalty for child rapists and the Georgia Ponzi scheme political contributor who has impacted the Alabama elections.

The latest episode of In the Weeds is out today! Mary, Trish, Alex and I are talking about the rescission package in Congress, what might happen to that frozen $68 million in federal funding, the latest education reading & math scores, the potential online sales tax lawsuit coming from cities, and the latest on the 2026 election cycle.

Mary, Alex and I discuss the passage of President Trump's big tax and spending cuts bill and the Alabama delegation's involvement. Plus, we review the first round of campaign fundraising numbers and the expiration of the overtime income tax cut. And I recall a Fourth of July memory that I may live to regret sharing.
