Massie Loses, Michelle Obama Faces Reality, Dem Autopsy Chaos, & Bass’ Broken Promise, with Ruy Teixeira, PLUS Bye Bye Colbert

Emily Jashinsky opens the show with a look at Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massie’s primary loss and argues many people are missing the bigger picture – that the race was REALLY about President Trump. Then Emily is joined by Ruy Teixeira, a Senior Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute and co-founder of the Substack newsletter, The Liberal Patriot. His most recent book, with John Judis, is Where Have All the Democrats Gone?

Ruy argues Democrats are late to the party in recognizing what pushed voters away and how former President Obama is ultimately an ‘elite.’ The conversation turns to the unreleased DNC “autopsy” of Kamala Harris’s 2024 loss, what’s really inside, and a can’t miss interview by her “Breaking Points” co-host Ryan Grim. Then Emily and Ruy discuss Texas Democrat James Talarico’s Senate race and a funny comment about it from President Trump. They two round out their conversation with a discussion on failing Democratic leadership in Washington, D.C. and Los Angeles including an incredibly out-of-touch Karen Bass. Emily wraps up the show with a hot take on Amanda Peet’s decision to avoid going under the knife, plus Emily ‘honors’ the end of Stephen Colbert’s “Late Show,” and Chelsea Handler is very upset with comedians like Tony Hinchcliffe and Shane Gillis.   Unplugged: Switching is simple, Visit https://Unplugged.com/EMILY [https://unplugged.com/EMILY] and order your UP phone today!   Beam: Visit https://shopbeam.com/AFTERPARTY [https://shopbeam.com/AFTERPARTY] and use code AFTERPARTY to get our exclusive discount of up to 40% off.   Cozy Earth: This Memorial Day, visit https://www.CozyEarth.com [https://www.cozyearth.com/] & Use code EMILY for up to 30% off.
