Maggie and guest co-host Matt Rothschild wade into the murky waters of international politics, dissecting Donald Trump’s faltering negotiations with Vladimir Putin over the Russia–Ukraine war. As Trump fumbles for a deal, a pressing question emerges: should Ukraine concede territory to end the conflict? With geopolitics in the spotlight, they critique Trump’s cozy rapport with Putin and the emptiness of his diplomacy. Listeners join the fray, sparking fiery debate on the moral and strategic stakes of territorial concessions. And that’s not all — Maggie and Matt preview a sharp conversation on whether Democrats should fight fire with fire by matching GOP gerrymandering tactics in Texas. Tune in for a fast-paced, no-holds-barred political showdown.
