Back to EpisodesLet’s pour one out for Lindsey Graham. Plus: why Josh Shapiro isn’t picking fights with the left (with Holly Otterbein!)
Description
Today on Nobody Knows Anything, Jesse and the crew react to the shocking death of Senator Lindsey Graham and examine the political fallout that could reshape both South Carolina and the U.S. Senate. They break down Graham's complicated legacy, Donald Trump's remarkable response to the news, the scramble to replace him, and whether Democrats have a real opportunity to compete in a state that has long been considered out of reach.
Then, Axios senior politics reporter Holly Otterbein joins the show to unpack the chaos unfolding in Maine after Graham Platner's withdrawal from the Senate race. They discuss the Democratic Party's frantic search for a new nominee, the candidates vying to take on Susan Collins, the growing anti-establishment mood within the party, and what Maine's political drama could mean for the Democratic coalition heading into 2028.
Finally, they dive into Josh Shapiro's carefully calculated path toward a potential presidential run, debate whether Democrats are headed for a major ideological showdown, and examine the latest controversies surrounding FBI Director Kash Patel—from mounting ethics questions to growing speculation about his future in the Trump administration.
