Summary
John discusses the new story in the Atlantic which claims Kash Patel has had many documented incidents of intoxication - while little boy Cash was serving as FBI director, and while dreaming of one day being a real live bro, dude. He then talks about another well-known drunk - Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer who facing allegations of misconduct and being drunk on the job, resigned from her cabinet role. Then, he welcomes back comedian Rhonda Hansome to discuss New York Governor Kathy Hochul and New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani's proposed a pied-à-terre tax, an annual surcharge on luxury residential properties in NYC valued at $5 million or more that are not the owner's primary residence. This proposal aims to target "empty mansions" and vacant luxury condos owned by wealthy absentee owners—often described as "safe deposit boxes in the sky"—to help close the city’s $5.4 billion budget gap. Then finally, Professor Corey Brettschneider joins the show to talk about the newly leaked Supreme Court shadow docket memos and a federal prosecutor who was working on the investigation into former CIA Director John Brennan just stepped away from the whole investigation, apparently over concerns about the legal viability of the case.
