On the December 2nd episode of the 10 Minute Drill, we break down a major weekend in politics — from a National Guard shooting just blocks from the White House to a suddenly competitive special election in deep-red Tennessee, and explosive new fraud revelations rocking Minnesota politics.
• National Guard Shooting in D.C. An Afghan national brought to the U.S. after Biden’s Afghanistan withdrawal opened fire on National Guard troops stationed in Washington, D.C. We walk through what happened, the political fallout, and the tragic deaths of Sarah Beckstrom and Andrew Wolfe.
• Tennessee’s 7th District Special Election A Trump +20 district is unexpectedly competitive as Democrat Aftyn Behn campaigns with AOC and faces resurfaced comments about Nashville and attacking law enforcement. A warning sign for Republicans heading into 2025.
• Minnesota Fraud Scandal Escalates — Walz Accused New reporting reveals massive fraud inside Minnesota’s nutrition and autism programs, with funds allegedly ending up in luxury goods and even Al-Shabaab. DHS whistleblowers now directly accuse Gov. Tim Walz of ignoring fraud reports and retaliating against employees who raised concerns.
• Supreme Court Preview: First Choice Women’s Resource Centers A major case heads to the Court amid New Jersey’s efforts to target pregnancy resource centers with “consumer alerts,” raising broader questions about whether states are using regulatory power to shut down alternatives to abortion.
• Democrats Try to Do Charts (Again) From Amy Klobuchar’s misfired electricity-price graphic to Democrats’ earlier grocery-price chart fiasco, we close with the latest round of data-visualization self-owns.
