The Make America Great Again movement is splitting at the seams after the Department of Justice said there wasn't a "client list," something Trump's base supporters had been calling for to be released for years.

Fueled by the belief that Epstein was the key to uncovering a cabal of child abusers or worse, they helped Trump retake the White House, believing he was their benevolent, billionaire savior from the "deep state."

But after he said it was no big deal, the base started to revolt, and Trump hasn't been able to get a handle on this scandal. Grant talks about how the Epstein conspiracy became what it is, what the latest controversy is and how it could mean trouble for Trump in the not-so-distant future.

After the unexpected victory of Zohran Mamdani in the New York mayoral primary, one question has emerged; is this the new model for Democrats.

The party has been listless without a clear vision or leader or message to voters and has begun to show cracks about what the future should look like.

Grant talks with Amanda Litman, Cofounder of Run For Something and author of When We're In Charge: The Next Generation's Guide To Leadership about what Democrats can learn from younger leaders, how the party has to adapt or die in the face of a second Trump presidency, and what we can all learn by embracing a new kind of leader.

Trump blows through his 90 deals in 90 days deadline, extending when he'd finally make good on threats to start tariffs to August 1.

But if he's the Deal Maker in Chief, then why would he need to extend the timeline?

Grant talks about the few deals that have been made, what's been happening in the meantime and what it'll mean for all of us when we go to buy things for the next few months.
