After millions rally at No Kings protests, Donald Trump posts an AI-generated video of himself wearing a crown, spraying poop from a fighter jet onto the crowds below. Jon, Lovett, and Tommy discuss how far we've fallen and then get into the news, including the political prosecution of John Bolton, Trump's threat to send troops to another California city, and the prospects for peace in Ukraine, war in Venezuela, and the breakdown of the Gaza peace deal. Then, Tommy sits down with Graham Platner, Democratic candidate for Senate in Maine, to discuss his recently resurfaced Reddit comments and the disillusionment he experienced after returning from Afghanistan.

At a time when it’s increasingly easy to feel cynical or hopeless, former Obama staffers Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett, and Tommy Vietor have created a place where people can have sane conversations that inform, entertain, and inspire action. In 2017 they started Crooked with Pod Save America—a no-bullshit conversation about politics. Since then, we continue to add shows, voices, and opportunities for activism, because it’s up to all of us to do our part to build a better world. That’s it. End of mission.

“Uh the protests were almost entirely peaceful, quite joyful and patriotic with very few arrests. All this despite the White House and Republican leaders referring to the event as a hate America rally and maligning the Americans who showed up as Hamasloving terrorists and Soros funded Antifa radicals. Not entirely wrong, but yeah, that that was just us. The uh this bizarre line of attack continued on Monday when Speaker Mike Johnson and other senior house members held a press conference with phot”
Hillary Clinton
“Talking about the deplorables. Well, that was Hillary Clinton doing it. But anybody, you know, when and she can't do anything, right?”
Pete Hegseth
