A Texas doctor gets sued for violating the state’s six-week abortion ban—which may actually be a good thing. Trump gets humiliated again by the results of Arizona’s sham audit. Brian interviews Senator Amy Klobuchar, one of the authors of the Senate’s new voting rights bill that was crafted with Joe Manchin - the Freedom to Vote Act - about what’s in the bill and whether there’s any indication that Manchin will support filibuster reform so that it could actually get passed. And Julie Oliver and Mike Siegel, co-founders of Ground Game Texas, join to discuss bringing new voters into the fold with a smart new strategy.

Trump gets rebuked twice after trying to put his finger on the scales. Brian interviews Senator Chris Murphy (D-CT) about his thoughts on a number of Republicans testifying for the January 6 committee, including Trump, Kevin McCarthy, and Jim Jordan; how to pass voting rights legislation despite Manchin’s opposition to the filibuster; and his introduction of the National Security Powers Act to finally put the power back in Congress’ hands to declare war. And West Virginia’s Richard Ojeda joins to talk about the best way to deal with his fellow West Virginian Joe Manchin, how Democrats can get elected in red districts and states, and his response – as an Army vet – to conservative pundits mocking law enforcement officials over January 6.
