    James and Al dismantle Trump’s State of the Union, raise hell over Speaker Johnson’s ethics concerns, and call out the President’s many lies about tax cuts, balancing the budget, and his allegiance to domestic and international democracy. Then, they welcome Clinton Foundation Senior Fellow Marc Dunkelman to discuss the costly burden of the administrative state and how it creates obstacles to progress that undermine faith in our government’s ability to get things done. As part of their analysis, they lay out why DOGE is failing to live up to the hope that it can change the system and look at how Democrats can make cutting red tape into a winning issue.
