Victoria BroderickGuestMike WinsonHostWhen we first talked, the first time we talked, one of the things that we spent a decent amount of time on was the idea of accountability or the lack thereof.
A couple days earlier than the recording of this episode, we had a president in Nebraska talk about how it wasn't that big of a deal if Iran bombed San Diego and Los Angeles.
And no surprise to anybody, there's a lot of people on his side that are trying to say it was misconstrued and all this other stuff.

That is something I'm hearing in my district in rural Tennessee, where Republicans are taking my signs
And They were all very close to the same of you could tell that they were done, that they were sick of the lies.
