About this episode

The episode discusses Florida's redistricting efforts, Virginia's Supreme Court arguments, and the implications of AI and social media on society.

Andrew Walworth, Carl Cannon and Richard Porter discuss Gov. Ron DeSantis and the proposed new congressional map for the state of Florida. Also, Virginia’s Supreme Court heard arguments challenging Virginia’s initiative on redistricting, and House Minority Leader Hakim Jeffries defends his rhetoric about the redistricting fight in the wake of the attempted assassination of President Trump at the White House Correspondents Dinner. Next, they preview today’s address to Congress by King Charles, and the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, which the King is here to celebrate. Then, they discuss Anthropic’s latest AI, called “Mythos” which is being released to only 100 entities because the creators want strong guardrails to keep it from use on the wider internet. And then finally, they chat about a new article in the Federalist which focuses on how TikTok’s algorithms encourage young women to stay single. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
