Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is set to announce his bid for President Wednesday night in a conversation on Twitter with Elon Musk.

With sales on the decline and the company cracking down on progressive voices within, the right won. We’ll discuss what we can do about it. Marjorie Taylor Greene paid $100,000 for McCarthy’s used chapstick. Yes, you heard that right.

Democrats notched some critical victories in last night’s elections, while Desantis had a very bad night. We’ll dive into the returns. North Carolina Republicans pushed through a restrictive abortion law, overriding the Governor’s veto. How did a purple state yield a Republican supermajority – and what will this all mean for the women of North Carolina? We’ll then turn to the debt limit fight. Biden and members of congress are set to meet today. How close are they to compromise? And if they can’t, can Biden just ignore the debt ceiling? Some legal scholars say yes. Then: As we predicated, CNN totally screwed up their Trump town hall. We’ll size up the arguments for and against their decision to “platform” Trump — and give you our take. Finally, Elon Musk is under fire for suppressing speech in Turkey on the eve of a critical election. Is this self-proclaimed free speech hero prioritizing his wallet over his values? Will his newly announced replacement as CEO make any bit of a difference? This is Majority 54!

Yet another school shooting has led Biden to once again call for gun safety measures. Meanwhile, the GOP leaders offer thoughts, prayers, and conspiracies. Trump went down to Waco to attack Alvin Bragg and conjure images of cult leader (and alleged pedophile) David Koresh. Is this the desperate last act of a cornered rat or should we be worried? Then, we turn to a new study that shows Americans are abandoning our defining values. What will that mean for our country, and our lives? And finally, we’ll check in with the folks over at Fox News to get the latest on how the Dominion lawsuit is sowing chaos in America’s favorite right-wing cable network.  Thanks to our sponsor Dave!

The FBI and Department of Energy now believe COVID was the result of a lab leak in China. Republicans are now running with this, claiming a liberal media conspiracy and cover-up. Are they right? We’ll talk about what we know, who screwed up, and point out a few inconvenient facts for the GOP. Biden’s student loan relief has landed in front of the Supreme Court. What can we glean from oral arguments? Is the relief program in trouble? Oh, and of course we have some GOP on GOP infighting, once again checking in with the ongoing imbroglio between DeSantis and Trump.

A seismic indictment in Georgia? The special grand jury foreperson is sharing snippets of information that make Trump and everyone in his orbit nervous. Then, internal Fox messages released in the $1.6 billion Dominion defamation case show the network’s hosts internally knew trump was lying despite continuing to spread those lies. Will Fox’s viewers finally realize the contempt the network has for them? Finally, President Joe Biden visited Ukrainian President Zelenskyy in Ukraine. It should be a reason for all Americans to come together and applaud the president — but of course the right couldn’t even do that.

Republican Nikki Haley announces her bid for president. Is there a lane for her brand of, shall we say, moral flexibility? And what should we make of the new rifts in the MAGA civil war?
