Chris Cuomo begins with new polling that shows Democrats leading Republicans by 13 points among likely voters heading into the midterms and up 31 points among independents. He looks at what’s driving the shift and the backlash to House Speaker Mike Johnson’s actions on the SAVE Act, the Epstein files and ICE investigations. In a political climate of unprecedented division, Utah Republican Governor Spencer Cox is working to bridge the divide and unite the country following Charlie Kirk’s assassination. Governor Cox joins “CUOMO” to discuss his new book, “Off Ramp: How to Be a Peacemaker in an Age of Contempt.” The Lindsay Clancy trial ended in a mistrial after a lone juror voted guilty against 11 who voted not guilty.

One of the many drawbacks of living in an era of ultra-polarization is that politics have become quite boring. It may seem odd to say that in the Age of Trump, when every week brings some new bombshell, but when we consider politics qua politics—that is, as a serious attempt to answer the question of who gets what, when, and how—there is a depressing predictability to the positions taken by the major actors. From abortion to tax policy to voter fraud, the battle lines are drawn, the incentives clear, the tracks well-worn. AI is…Open

The AI backpedaling has begun: 2028 Democratic contenders who bet big on data centers are suddenly retreating amid a growing voter revolt. Why it matters: The politics of AI are evolving almost as rapidly as the technology. - Just a few months ago, potential 2028 presidential candidates — including Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro and Maryland Gov. Wes Moore — were bending over backwards to lure data centers, with offers of lavish tax breaks and other goodies. - The projects seemed like no-brainers to many pols: They promised jobs, made building trade unions happy, took on China and pleased Silicon Valley execs. - Now those Democrats are abruptly retreating — and vowing to protect voters from the…
