First, they welcome two new polls showing Seattle residents deeply disapproving new socialist Mayor Katie Wilson. She's been roundly criticized for a poor response to a shooting in thee city last month, and for telling rich people and businesses, \"Bye,\" if they're considering leaving Washington over higher taxes. Next, they note that opposition to data centers might be the biggest issue with bipartisan consensus right now. Jim and Greg walk through the concerns, some of them very valid, and the long-term consequences of stopping or sigificantly slowing data center construction. Then, they shake their heads as Republican West Virginia Sen. Jim Justice is reportedly making plans to challenge incumbent GOP Gov. Patrick Morrisey in 2028. Justice has served less than two years in the Senate. Jim and Greg agree that serving in the Senate is not very fun these days but if you sign up for six years, you should know what the job involves. Finally, a third Dan Sullivan is involved in the fight for a U.S. Senate seat in Alaska. Oh, and the vote totals in Alaska also haven't changed since Wednesday. They're stuck at 80 percent of the vote in. Please visit our great sponsors: Quo Money is on the line. Always say hello with QUO.
