Democrats fail to create a carveout in the filibuster for voting rights, but there are some bright spots ahead of midterms. Brian interviews Wisconsin Democratic Party chair Ben Wikler about Ron Johnson’s announcement to run for a third term, his biggest vulnerability, and what the nation’s most important swing state looks like as we head into midterms. And the president & CEO of Media Matters, Angelo Carusone, joins to discuss DirecTV dropping OAN and what it might mean for other far-right outlets.
