LA Protests, Trump's Authoritarian Playbook, and Warner Bros. Discovery Split
Kara and Scott discuss the protests in Los Angeles, dig into Trump's escalating authoritarian tactics, and debate how the Democratic Party should fight back. They also get some on-the-ground perspective from New York Times reporter Livia Albeck-Ripka, who's been covering the protests. Then, Trump threatens Elon Musk with “serious consequences” if he funds Democrats, but is Elon’s behavior on X a sign he’s crawling back? Plus, Warner Bros. Discovery confirms it’s splitting into two companies, just as Kara and Scott predicted.
