James and Al discuss Susie Wiles’ exposé of Trump’s administration in Vanity Fair, share their takes on her description of the people in it, MAGA’s growing schism, Rob Reiner’s legacy, and Trump’s reaction to his murder.  Then, they welcome Dr. James Densley of the Violence Prevention Project in the aftermath of mass shootings at Brown University and Bondi Beach to explain the growing gun violence epidemic, what motivates the people who carry out these heinous acts, the danger of rising anti-semitism, and the policies and leadership we need to put a stop to the killing.

Email your questions to James and Al at [email protected] or tweet them to @politicon.  Make sure to include your city– we love to hear where you’re from!
