HOT TOPICS | MAGA is Rigging Elections & ICE's Drive for Recruits - August 8th, 2025
This morning, we start in Texas, where the GOP’s latest redistricting scheme is a masterclass in gerrymandering, and they’re not stopping there. The MAGA playbook is clear: rig the maps, rig the elections, and then roll it out to as many states as possible. Democracy, but make it optional.
Then, we’ll dig into the latest jobs numbers and the state of the economy with Sam Caucci, founder and CEO of 1Huddle. What’s working, what’s flopping, and what the data really says.
And finally, ICE. They can’t find enough recruits, so their fix is to… drop the requirements. Because apparently “warm body” is now a qualification.
