Pound The Table With Catherine Rampell & Dr. Annie Andrews

James and Al expose the latest developments from the Epstein Files and game out their political ramifications before welcoming SC Senate candidate Dr. Annie Andrews to plan her victory over Lindsey Graham.  They discuss her career in medicine, why she’s running, her policy positions, how to fix our healthcare system, and possible attack lines against her opponent.  Then, they are joined by The Bulwark’s economics editor, Catherine Rampell, to review the state of the economy,  looking at why the effects of tariffs have been muted, financial strategies the Republicans might pursue, the danger posed by the national debt, and the perils of AI.
