Is Rahm Emanuel Running For President?
Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan and Carl Cannon discuss Rahm Emanual’s appearance on The View, where he hinted he was “in training” for a presidential run. Also, a new poll by the polling firm co/efficient shows that 26 percent of voters believe that no one is the face of the Democratic Party, tied with 26 percent who believe is it New York Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. They also talk about today’s Supreme Court hearing on whether federal judges can restrict the Trump Administration’s restrictions on the mandatory right to citizenship for all children born in the U.S. Plus, they chat about 3 Yale professors who say they're moving to Canada because of President Trump and Bruce Springsteen berating Trump as he starts his “Land of Hopes and Dreams” tour in England. Next, Carl talks to Peter Berkowitz, former Director of Policy Planning at the State Department, about President Trump’s meeting with Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa, nuclear negotiations with Iran, and the idea of a “freedom zone” in Gaza administered by the U.S. And finally, Andrew talks to John Feehery, former press secretary to House Speaker Dennis Hastert, about the internal politics behind the current Congressional budget negotiations and whether the GOP will hold the House in the 2026 midterms.
