## Resource

Kara and Scott unpack the growing turmoil at CBS and "60 Minutes," along with Trump’s surprise pick to lead national intelligence, and the consequences of sidelining expertise. Then, they discuss what California’s primary results reveal about voters’ priorities and the politics of competence. Plus, Apple bets on AI glasses, and Trump’s watered-down AI executive order.
