  • What Happened In Tuesday's Elections

    What Happened In Tuesday's Elections
    Apr 2 2025
    Money poured into races in Florida and Wisconsin at levels usually reserved for elections during a presidential cycle. Republicans held two House seats in Florida, but by smaller margins than their previous wins there.

    Meanwhile, a judge aligned with Democrats won to keep a liberal majority on the Wisconsin Supreme Court — despite Elon Musk spending more than $20 million to back the Republicans' preferred candidate.

    This episode: White House correspondent Deepa Shivaram, political correspondent Susan Davis, and senior political editor & correspondent Domenico Montanaro.

    The podcast is produced by Bria Suggs & Kelli Wessinger and edited by Casey Morell. Our executive producer is Muthoni Muturi.

  • Trump & Presidential Term Limits

    Trump & Presidential Term Limits
    Apr 1 2025
    The president has flirted with — and walked back — suggestions he would seek a third term in office, which runs counter to the 22nd Amendment's provisions on term limits. But that's not stopping supporters & academics from exploring ways the amendment's language may be interpreted differently.

    This episode: White House correspondent Deepa Shivaram, voting correspondent Hansi Lo Wang, and senior political editor & correspondent Domenico Montanaro.
