About this episode

The episode discusses the Justice Department's indictment of James Comey and the implications of Ron DeSantis's new House map in Florida.

The Justice Department releases a new indictment of the former FBI Director, claiming his Instagram post of seashells spelling out “86 47” was a threat to kill President Trump. Plus, Gov.
