Donald Trump shrugged off the murder of Jamal Khashoggi this week by saying "things happen." The casual acceptance of cold-blooded murder should strike a chill in the hearts of all, not just because of its callousness, but because of its implications for our country. Rosa Brooks and David Rothkopf discuss and look for answers and insights in our history, starting with the American Revolution. Don't miss it.

The Daily Blast: Trump’s Plot to Rig 2026 Is Falling Apart, and Boy Is He Mad About It
Suddenly, President Trump’s effort to rig the 2026 midterms with corrupt gerrymanders appears in trouble. A panel of judges just blocked the GOP gerrymander in Texas, which had added five seats. In Indiana, Republicans currently lack the votes to redraw their congressional map. Trump is angry about all this. He lashed out at Indiana Republicans, threatening primaries and calling one opponent “weak” and “pathetic.” So is the scheme dead? No Several aspects of it still remain unresolved. The Texas seats are in doubt, but that’s being appealed, and Republicans have added four other seats. Meanwhile, Democrats are adding 5 in California and one in Utah. Now what? We talked to Heather Williams, who’s been fighting against the GOP schemes as president of the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee. She explains the hurdles that lie ahead, how it could all turn out relatively well for Democrats, and why rank-and-file voters need to take state-level contests way more seriously.
