Washington Monthly Politics Editor Bill Scher and Matt Lewis, columnist for the Los Angeles Times and The Hill, brought their long-running show “The DMZ” to Substack Live today. They discussed:
“It’s Time for the Media to Press Trump on Allegations of Abusing a Minor” — Bill’s new column about the Epstein Files documents that include evidence of a woman accusing Donald Trump of trying to force her to perform oral sex when she was a young teenager then punching her when she bit his penis.
What may happen to our media institutions if Trump is able to effectively take control of CNN after the planned takeover of Warner Brothers by Paramount.
New threats by Trump to commandeer the November 2026 midterm elections. (Related: check out Bill’s earlier column, “How Worried Should Democrats Be About Trump Stealing the Next Election?”)
Next Tuesday’s Texas primaries and their impact on the midterms.
“The Last Shreds of Our Shared American Culture Are Being Politicized” — Matt’s latest for the Los Angeles Times.
