Co-hosts Jared Yates Sexton and Nick Hauselman digest what's happening to Federal Judge James Boasberg as he told the Trump administration to stop deporting people based on tattoos. The problem is: with Absolute Immunity bestowed upon him by the Supreme Court, why would Trump ever listen to anyone? They shift to the backlash against Elon Musk, who seems completely shocked that people would have a problem with what he's been doing with DOGE. They finish by discussing the latest document dump of the JFK files.
