SCOTUS Hears Oral Arguments Over a Law that Bars “Gender Affirming Care” on Minors, the Result of the Final House Race, and Pete Hegseth’s Mom Explains Her Critical Letter to Him on Fox News

Andrew, Tom and Carl discuss today’s oral arguments at the US Supreme Court challenging a Tennessee law that bars “gender affirming care” on minors. The Biden Administration is arguing that the law discriminates on the basis of sex and is therefore unconstitutional. The Court seems skeptical. They also talk about Penelope Hegseth’s appearance this morning on Fox News explaining her 2018 email to her son accusing him of being an “abuser of women.” Pete Hegseth was on Capitol Hill Wednesday meeting with Senators in advance of his confirmation hearings and told Megyn Kelly in an exclusive interview that he is the right person to lead the Pentagon and retains Donald Trump’s support. Plus, they also discuss the result of the final House race which has been announced: Adam Gray won California's 13th Congressional District, unseating incumbent Republican John Duarte. That means that the GOP will hold 220 seats to the Democrats 215, but with some GOP members nominated to fill positions in the Trump administration, the Republican’s operating majority will be even slimmer, at least for the critical first few months of the new administration. Then lastly, Carl Cannon talks to John Maxwell Hamilton, RCP columnist and Journalism Professor at LSU, about how Democrats should deal with a second Trump administration, and whether a Trumpian revolution will really “Make America Great Again.” Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
