SALENA ZITO

National Political Reporter for the Washington Examiner

Co-Author of The Great Revolt 

Salena Zito joins Larry O'Connor on the podcast to discuss her recent interviews of three US governors and how they are each confronting the coronavirus pandemics in their states and the slow process of re-opening their economy. O'Connor and Zito also discuss the potential impact of the pandemic on the November election. 

BEN DOMENECH

Publisher of The Federalist 

Domenech and O'Connor discuss how Ben's joke on Twitter about Vox Media's writers' vote to unionize has literally turned into a federal case brought by outside observers who have nothing to do with Comenech's company or his employees. It's a cautionary tale of federal bureaucracy's overreach. 

CHUCK ROSS Reporter for The Daily Caller News Foundation 

Chuck Ross is reporting on more revelations with regard to the origins of the Steele Dossier used by the Obama Justice Department to open inappropriate FISA warrants figures connected to the Trump campaign in 2016. It turns out, some of the explosive, unfounded charges contained in the dossier originated from individuals connected to the Hillary Clinton campaign.
