In this week’s Dispatch Live, Declan is joined by Audrey and David Drucker for a chat about Tucker Carlson’s attempts to rewrite the story of January 6. The crew then dives into what’s been going on with Washington D.C.’s crime bill, and President Biden’s willingness to side with Senate Republicans to stop the district from lessening its sentences. Finally, David and Declan discuss their experiences at this year’s CPAC, and whether the event actually means something for 2024.

To kick off this week’s Dispatch Live, Steve and Jonah share their thoughts about the Fox News/Dominion lawsuit (for which they were both subpoenaed). Then, Kevin and David join to discuss the latest in 2024 GOP politics and the viability of CPAC. Stick around to hear a story about CPAC from Steve that he has never told publicly before and a joke from Kevin that had most of the guys and members in the chat laughing out loud.

In today’s Valentine’s Day Dispatch Live, Adam chats with Price and Esther about the most romantic topic imaginable: the ongoing aftermath of China’s spy balloon and what it means for U.S. foreign policy. In the second half of the show, the Dispatch Politics team comes on to discuss the latest 2024 developments, including Nikki Haley’s official campaign announcement and speculation about other potential candidates (hello, Tim Scott!). Plus, Adam shares some of his finest dad jokes throughout.

To start this Dispatch Live, Jonah, Kevin, and Declan partake in the “lowest form of punditry” by making predictions about an event that is happening one hour after said predictions—the State of the Union. After that, the trio discussed the Chinese spy balloon, 2024 GOP presidential politics, and the future of Kamala Harris. Does she have any chance of being the Democratic nominee? Will Trump run as an independent if he’s not the nominee? Is Dick Cheney the best American vice president of the 21st century? Watch the video to find out.

In the inaugural week for the Dispatch Politics newsletter, David Drucker, Andrew, and Audrey join Steve for a discussion about the recent Republican National Committee election and the state of the 2024 presidential race. In addition, the crew answers a variety of questions from Dispatch audience members about what the newsletter will look like going forward and why it’s worth a read (even if November 2024 is still almost two years away!).

The gang is all here this week for Dispatch Live. Sarah, Steve, David, and Jonah discuss the breaking news that an FBI agent was charged with money laundering for a Russian oligarch and that classified documents were found in former Vice President Mike Pence’s Indiana home. And to end, since this is David’s final Dispatch Live as a full-time Dispatch employee, Steve leads the panel in a “David French Roast.” Don’t worry though, David will be back as a guest on plenty of Dispatch Lives in the future.

This week’s edition of Dispatch Live featured everyone’s favorite topics: the looming debt ceiling debate and the mishandling of classified documents. David, Kevin, and Esther break it all down and offer analyses of those topics and a few more. Plus, what movies are David and Kevin most looking forward to this year? And did they agree on the quality of Dune: Part One?

It was a jam-packed Dispatch Live this week with Declan, Sarah, Esther, and Andrew. The crew started by talking about the latest news that President Biden’s personal lawyers discovered classified documents recently in a private office he maintained after his vice presidency. What makes this case different from former President Trump’s? Also, what should we expect from the new Congress, what recent changes did the Biden administration make on immigration policy, and last but certainly not least, what is everyone’s favorite Muppet?

After a full day of voting, the House of Representatives has not elected a new speaker. Kevin McCarthy has not been able to lock in enough votes to gain the title. Audrey and Harvest joined Dispatch Live to talk about what happened in the halls of Congress and what we can all expect in the next few days. Then, Sarah and Jonah offer their thoughts on the day’s proceedings. Would they vote for Kevin McCarthy for speaker? And what’s the deal with Chip Roy? Plus, a few words on David’s (quasi) departure from The Dispatch.

As 2022 comes to a close, David, Kevin, and Price take a look back on the highlights and lowlights of the past year in this Dispatch Live. Tune in to hear their personal “Person of the Year” and “Rat Bastard of the Year.” Plus, what was the most significant event to take place in the last year? And the crew had plenty of time to answer questions from the audience. From all of us at The Dispatch, have a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.

This week on Dispatch Live is focused entirely on Congress. With an omnibus spending package framework announced just moments before Steve, Haley, and Declan went live and a fight to become speaker of the House for Kevin McCarthy, there was no shortage of things to talk about for this trio. Tune in to see which Star Wars movie poster is in Haley’s background.
