On Sundays between now and the election, we're going to dip into the 2024 race to talk about the latest events -- plus offer some historical perspective.

And these will all be video episodes! So if you'd like to watch the conversation, visit our YouTube page.

Today, Jody, Niki, and Kellie discuss the increasingly addled nature of Trump's rallies; how Howard U is treating the Kamala run; and a very unfortunate reference to Arnold Palmer's penis size.

Then they're joined by Dave O'Brien of RepresentUS to talk about the new money flowing into this year's election.
