On today's show:

  • Brian Stelter, chief media analyst for CNN Worldwide, lead author of the Reliable Sources newsletter and the author of several books, including Network of Lies: The Epic Saga of Fox News, Donald Trump, and the Battle for America (Atria/One Signal Publishers, 2024), offers his perspective of the shooting at this weekend's White House Correspondents' Association dinner, including how commonplace it is becoming for Americans to experience this kind of trauma.

  • HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has testified before Congress several times over the past week. Chelsea Cirruzzo, Washington Correspondent for STAT news, offers analysis as to why he seemed to move away from some of the more radical MAHA messaging he has promoted in the past.
  • David Brand, housing reporter for WNYC and Gothamist, talks about the Mamdani administration's new Office of Deed Theft Prevention and six-month lien moratorium after Councilmember Chi Ossé's arrest at a deed theft protest.

  • Jessica Winter, staff writer at The New Yorker, covering family and education, discusses her latest reporting on how artificial intelligence tools are cropping up in the classroom, like the pre-installed AI tools on Google's Chromebooks, and why an increasing number of parents and educators are becoming concerned.

Transcripts are posted to each segment as they become available.
