Elsewhere in Florida, Representative Jared Moskowitz beat his DSA challenger in the newly drawn Congressional District 25, immediately posting “My condolences to @hasanthehun” on social media — a direct shot at Hasan Piker, who had backed his opponent. Aaron also breaks down the race to replace term-limited Governor Ron DeSantis, and Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s win in Florida’s 20th district — a seat held by a Black lawmaker for over three decades. Plus, more results in Pennsylvania and Alaska.

The Iowa State Fair is underway, drawing around 20 political candidates including Josh Turek, Ashley Hinson, Thomas Laehn, and gubernatorial nominees Zach Lahn and Rob Sand. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth spoke at the fair and used an anti-LGBTQ slur, and RFK is on a 10-day Iowa swing advocating for the Presidential Fitness test.

Following comments from Senator Jon Ossoff and others about the relationship between President Trump and aide Natalie Harp, reports are emerging that Melania Trump is keeping her distance from her husband.

In South Carolina, the sole debate in the runoff election for Lindsey Graham’s vacant Senate seat produced a memorable moment: Senator Darline Graham — the late senator’s sister — admitted she was “not that informed on national security.”

Plus, Jess and Aaron take audience questions.
