Nate Cohn, a polling expert at The New York Times, suggests that a small but significant group of Trump supporters might switch their vote to Joe Biden due to the conviction. Maggie Haberman, a longtime observer of Trump, analyzes Trump’s strategy of framing the conviction as a partisan attack and using it to rally his base. She notes that Trump’s fundraising efforts have been successful, indicating that his message resonates with his supporters. Reed Epstein, who covers the Biden campaign, highlights the Democrats’ conflicted approach to the conviction, with Biden himself choosing to be restrained in his response. He notes that while some Democrats are urging Biden to be more aggressive in using the conviction against Trump, the Biden campaign is hesitant to fully embrace the issue. The episode concludes with a discussion about the potential implications of Trump’s conviction for the election, with both sides facing challenges in navigating the situation.</p><p><iframe src="https://castbox.fm/app/castbox/player/id3694285/id707154011?v=8.22.11&autoplay=0&hide_list=1" width="100%" height="200" frameborder="0"></iframe></p></div><p><script>window.addEventListener('load', () => { document.querySelector("#nav-2 .ep-title").addEventListener('click', () => { gtag('event', 'blog_clk', { event_category: 'ep_title', event_label: 'ep_title_'+ getTime() }); window.open('https:\/\/castbox.fm\/episode\/id3694285-id709092857'); }); document.querySelector("#nav-2 .ep-cover").addEventListener('click', () => { gtag('event', 'blog_clk', { event_category: 'ep_title', event_label: 'ep_title_'+ getTime() }); window.open('https:\/\/castbox.fm\/episode\/id3694285-id709092857'); }); });</script></p><div id="nav-2" class="ep-item"><h3 class="ep-title">The Rise and Fall of Congestion Pricing in New York</h3><p><img class="ep-cover" src="https://image.simplecastcdn.com/images/7f2f4c05-9c2f-4deb-82b7-b538062bc22d/73549bf1-94b3-40ff-8aeb-b4054848ec1b/3000x3000/the-daily-album-art-original.jpg?aid=rss_feed" /></p><p class="summmary">New York City’s congestion pricing plan, designed to reduce traffic and fund subway repairs, has been indefinitely paused by Governor Kathy Hochul due to economic concerns and potential political backlash from suburban voters.</p><p class="summary">This episode of The Daily explores the rise and fall of congestion pricing in New York City. The plan, which would have charged drivers a fee to enter a designated zone in Manhattan, was initially met with resistance but gained momentum in 2017 when Governor Andrew Cuomo proposed using the revenue to fund subway repairs. The plan was approved in 2023, with tolls set to begin on June 30th. However, Governor Kathy Hochul, who had previously been a strong supporter of congestion pricing, announced an indefinite pause on the program, citing economic concerns and the potential for political backlash from suburban voters. The decision has left many questioning the future of congestion pricing in New York City and its potential for implementation in other US cities. The episode also discusses the implications of the pause on the funding for the city’s subway system and the fate of the millions of dollars spent on installing cameras and sensors for the program.</p><p><iframe src="https://castbox.fm/app/castbox/player/id3694285/id709092857?v=8.22.11&autoplay=0&hide_list=1" width="100%" height="200" frameborder="0"></iframe></p></div><p><script>window.addEventListener('load', () => { document.querySelector("#nav-3 .ep-title").addEventListener('click', () => { gtag('event', 'blog_clk', { event_category: 'ep_title', event_label: 'ep_title_'+ getTime() }); window.open('https:\/\/castbox.fm\/episode\/id3694285-id708062730'); }); document.querySelector("#nav-3 .ep-cover").addEventListener('click', () => { gtag('event', 'blog_clk', { event_category: 'ep_title', event_label: 'ep_title_'+ getTime() }); window.open('https:\/\/castbox.fm\/episode\/id3694285-id708062730'); }); });</script></p><div id="nav-3" class="ep-item"><h3 class="ep-title">The Fight Over the Next Pandemic</h3><p><img class="ep-cover" src="https://image.simplecastcdn.com/images/7f2f4c05-9c2f-4deb-82b7-b538062bc22d/73549bf1-94b3-40ff-8aeb-b4054848ec1b/3000x3000/the-daily-album-art-original.jpg?aid=rss_feed" /></p><p class="summmary">Negotiations for a global pandemic treaty, aimed at preventing future pandemics like COVID-19, have stalled due to disagreements over vaccine access and funding, leaving the world vulnerable to future outbreaks.</p><p class="summary">The Daily podcast explores the ongoing negotiations for a global pandemic treaty, a plan designed to prevent future pandemics like COVID-19. The treaty aims to address the inequities in vaccine access and resource distribution that were exposed during the COVID-19 pandemic. While there is general agreement on the need for a plan, disagreements have emerged over specific details, particularly regarding the equitable distribution of vaccines and the role of pharmaceutical companies. Low-income countries, recognizing their lack of bargaining power, have proposed a mandatory donation of vaccines from pharmaceutical companies to the WHO, which would then distribute them to countries in need. However, this proposal has faced resistance from wealthy nations and pharmaceutical companies, who prefer a voluntary approach. The podcast highlights the importance of this treaty, emphasizing that the world is not adequately prepared for the next pandemic, which experts agree is inevitable.

Unlike his 2016 campaign, where he sought a candidate to bolster his credibility with evangelicals and establishment Republicans, Trump now believes voters will make their decision based on him alone. He’s not looking for a candidate to solve a political problem or appeal to a specific demographic. Instead, he’s prioritizing candidates who are “do no harm” – those who won’t create unwanted distractions or controversies. Trump is also seeking someone who can effectively defend him on television, particularly in debates, and who won’t overshadow him. He wants a loyal running mate who won’t try to leverage his political brand or become a successor. Three contenders currently stand out: JD Vance, Marco Rubio, and Doug Burgham. Vance, a senator from Ohio, has become a fierce defender of Trump and is skilled at defending him publicly. However, his ambition and youth could pose a risk of overshadowing Trump. Rubio, a senator from Florida, has also reconciled with Trump after initially criticizing him. He’s a strong attack dog on television and a trusted ally of Trump. However, Trump is unsure if Rubio truly wants the job. Burgham, the governor of North Dakota, is a wealthy businessman with a strong independent streak. He’s a generational peer of Trump and has a good rapport with him. However, his conservative policies, including a restrictive abortion law, could be a liability in a general election. Ultimately, Trump’s decision will be influenced by his desire for a candidate who won’t cause him problems, can defend him effectively on television, and won’t overshadow him. The choice will also reveal how comfortable these contenders are with the potential demands of a second Trump term, which could involve testing the bounds of the Constitution and seeking more power than any president in modern times.</p><p><iframe src="https://castbox.fm/app/castbox/player/id3694285/id710019765?v=8.22.11&autoplay=0&hide_list=1" width="100%" height="200" frameborder="0"></iframe></p></div><p><script>window.addEventListener('load', () => { document.querySelector("#nav-5 .ep-title").addEventListener('click', () => { gtag('event', 'blog_clk', { event_category: 'ep_title', event_label: 'ep_title_'+ getTime() }); window.open('https:\/\/castbox.fm\/episode\/id3694285-id710339388'); }); document.querySelector("#nav-5 .ep-cover").addEventListener('click', () => { gtag('event', 'blog_clk', { event_category: 'ep_title', event_label: 'ep_title_'+ getTime() }); window.open('https:\/\/castbox.fm\/episode\/id3694285-id710339388'); }); });</script></p><div id="nav-5" class="ep-item"><h3 class="ep-title">How to Retire as Early as Humanly Possible</h3><p><img class="ep-cover" src="https://image.simplecastcdn.com/images/1fd12add-51c2-4cdd-a7c2-45716d6fc417/096d6ca7-515d-4801-a5d4-2eb8c5d52b3a/3000x3000/nyt-podcast-theinteview-applespotify.jpg?aid=rss_feed" /></p><p class="summmary">The “FIRE” movement, which stands for Financial Independence, Retire Early, is gaining popularity as people seek alternatives to traditional work and retirement paths, with individuals from diverse backgrounds embracing frugal living and aggressive saving strategies to achieve early retirement.</p><p class="summary">The “FIRE” movement, short for Financial Independence, Retire Early, is a growing trend that encourages individuals to achieve financial freedom and retire early. The podcast explores the origins and evolution of the movement, highlighting its diverse approaches, from lean FIRE, emphasizing minimalism and ethical consumption, to fat FIRE, focusing on wealth accumulation and luxury retirement. The episode features Alan Wong, a successful app developer who retired at 25 after achieving financial independence through his app’s success. His story exemplifies the potential for early retirement, but it’s acknowledged as an outlier. The podcast then delves into the more common FIRE strategies, emphasizing aggressive saving, maximizing retirement contributions, and investing in index funds. The episode also explores the challenges and rewards of early retirement, including the search for purpose and identity outside of traditional work. The podcast concludes by examining the reasons behind the surge in FIRE’s popularity, attributing it to a changing economic landscape, job insecurity, and a desire for greater control over one’s life.</p><p><iframe src="https://castbox.fm/app/castbox/player/id3694285/id710339388?v=8.22.11&autoplay=0&hide_list=1" width="100%" height="200" frameborder="0"></iframe></p></div><p><script>window.addEventListener('load', () => { document.querySelector("#nav-6 .ep-title").addEventListener('click', () => { gtag('event', 'blog_clk', { event_category: 'ep_title', event_label: 'ep_title_'+ getTime() }); window.open('https:\/\/castbox.fm\/episode\/id3694285-id709715926'); }); document.querySelector("#nav-6 .ep-cover").addEventListener('click', () => { gtag('event', 'blog_clk', { event_category: 'ep_title', event_label: 'ep_title_'+ getTime() }); window.open('https:\/\/castbox.fm\/episode\/id3694285-id709715926'); }); });</script></p><div id="nav-6" class="ep-item"><h3 class="ep-title">The Criminal Conviction of Hunter Biden</h3><p><img class="ep-cover" src="https://image.simplecastcdn.com/images/e6b4bcd6-4fc3-4240-aeaa-6d5934aed2a4/9126a887-251b-4026-8f08-840e2fef3096/3000x3000/061224-nyt-podcast-thedaily-applespotify.jpg?aid=rss_feed" /></p><p class="summmary">A Delaware jury found Hunter Biden guilty on three federal gun charges, marking the first time in history that the child of a sitting president has been convicted of federal charges, while the trial itself highlighted the Biden family’s private struggles with addiction.</p><p class="summary">The Daily podcast delves into the recent guilty verdict against Hunter Biden on federal gun charges, exploring the legal saga leading up to the trial and its potential impact on the upcoming presidential election. The episode details the prosecution’s strategy, which relied heavily on Hunter Biden’s own memoir and testimony from his ex-wife and ex-girlfriend, painting a picture of his struggles with drug addiction. The defense attempted to counter this narrative by arguing that Hunter Biden was not actively using drugs at the time he purchased the gun, but their efforts were ultimately unsuccessful. The episode also examines the reactions to the verdict, including President Biden’s statement of support for his son and the potential political implications for the upcoming election. The podcast concludes by reflecting on the broader implications of this case, suggesting that the legal system is increasingly intertwined with politics, with politicians seeking to leverage the courts to their advantage.</p><p><iframe src="https://castbox.fm/app/castbox/player/id3694285/id709715926?v=8.22.11&autoplay=0&hide_list=1" width="100%" height="200" frameborder="0"></iframe></p></div><p><script>window.addEventListener('load', () => { document.querySelector("#nav-7 .ep-title").addEventListener('click', () => { gtag('event', 'blog_clk', { event_category: 'ep_title', event_label: 'ep_title_'+ getTime() }); window.open('https:\/\/castbox.fm\/episode\/id3694285-id711375145'); }); document.querySelector("#nav-7 .ep-cover").addEventListener('click', () => { gtag('event', 'blog_clk', { event_category: 'ep_title', event_label: 'ep_title_'+ getTime() }); window.open('https:\/\/castbox.fm\/episode\/id3694285-id711375145'); }); });</script></p><div id="nav-7" class="ep-item"><h3 class="ep-title">A Novel Legal Strategy for Mass Shooting Victims’ Families</h3><p><img class="ep-cover" src="https://image.simplecastcdn.com/images/34e5431c-f7f7-4edd-9b5d-0277e197a71b/49fe1bc4-6aa8-41a0-974f-c5744709c9ba/3000x3000/nyt-podcast-daily-061824.jpg?aid=rss_feed" /></p><p class="summmary">Families of victims from the Uvalde school shooting are suing companies like Meta, Activision, and Daniel Defense, alleging they helped groom and equip the teenage gunman.</p><p class="summary">The families of victims from the Uvalde school shooting are taking a new approach to seeking accountability, suing companies they believe contributed to the tragedy. Two lawsuits target Meta (owner of Instagram), Activision (maker of Call of Duty), and Daniel Defense (manufacturer of the AR-15-style rifle used in the shooting). The lawsuits, spearheaded by lawyer Josh Koskoff, argue that these companies helped “groom” the teenage gunman by promoting the weapon and reaching a younger audience through their platforms. Koskoff, who previously represented families in the Sandy Hook shooting, successfully argued that Remington, the gun manufacturer in that case, violated Connecticut consumer law by engaging in unlawful marketing practices. He’s using a similar strategy in the Uvalde case, alleging that Daniel Defense violated Texas law by selling a weapon to a minor. The lawsuits against Meta and Activision focus on their role in promoting the weapon and reaching vulnerable children. Koskoff argues that the shooter’s exposure to the Daniel Defense rifle through Call of Duty and his online activity on Instagram contributed to his desire to purchase the weapon. While the lawsuits face legal hurdles, Koskoff believes the evidence is strong enough to make them plausible. These lawsuits represent a shift in the conversation surrounding gun violence, moving away from individual blame and focusing on the broader cultural context that may contribute to these tragedies.</p><p><iframe src="https://castbox.fm/app/castbox/player/id3694285/id711375145?v=8.22.11&autoplay=0&hide_list=1" width="100%" height="200" frameborder="0"></iframe></p></div><p><script>window.addEventListener('load', () => { document.querySelector("#nav-8 .ep-title").addEventListener('click', () => { gtag('event', 'blog_clk', { event_category: 'ep_title', event_label: 'ep_title_'+ getTime() }); window.open('https:\/\/castbox.fm\/episode\/id3694285-id707453744'); }); document.querySelector("#nav-8 .ep-cover").addEventListener('click', () => { gtag('event', 'blog_clk', { event_category: 'ep_title', event_label: 'ep_title_'+ getTime() }); window.open('https:\/\/castbox.fm\/episode\/id3694285-id707453744'); }); });</script></p><div id="nav-8" class="ep-item"><h3 class="ep-title">A Conversation With President Zelensky</h3><p><img class="ep-cover" src="https://image.simplecastcdn.com/images/7f2f4c05-9c2f-4deb-82b7-b538062bc22d/73549bf1-94b3-40ff-8aeb-b4054848ec1b/3000x3000/the-daily-album-art-original.jpg?aid=rss_feed" /></p><p class="summmary">In a recent interview, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy discussed the challenges of the war with Russia, including the need for more military aid and the growing reluctance of Ukrainians to fight.</p><p class="summary">The Daily podcast features an interview with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, discussing the ongoing war with Russia. Zelenskyy argues that the US should allow Ukraine to use donated Western weaponry to strike targets inside Russia, despite the risk of escalation. He believes that Putin is an irrational actor who would not use nuclear weapons, as it would lead to World War III. The Biden administration has recently shifted its policy, allowing Ukraine to use American weapons to hit targets inside Russia, but with caveats. Zelenskyy also acknowledges the growing challenge of mobilizing enough men to fight, as the war has taken a heavy toll on Ukrainian society. He describes a growing division between those who are fighting and those who are not, which could be exploited by Russia. Zelenskyy expresses his determination to continue fighting, but acknowledges the uncertainty of the future and the possibility of defeat. The podcast also covers the election of Claudia Sheinbaum as Mexico’s first woman and first Jewish president, and the Biden administration’s new border policy.</p><p><iframe src="https://castbox.fm/app/castbox/player/id3694285/id707453744?v=8.22.11&autoplay=0&hide_list=1" width="100%" height="200" frameborder="0"></iframe></p></div><p><script>window.addEventListener('load', () => { document.querySelector("#nav-9 .ep-title").addEventListener('click', () => { gtag('event', 'blog_clk', { event_category: 'ep_title', event_label: 'ep_title_'+ getTime() }); window.open('https:\/\/castbox.fm\/episode\/id3694285-id711100663'); }); document.querySelector("#nav-9 .ep-cover").addEventListener('click', () => { gtag('event', 'blog_clk', { event_category: 'ep_title', event_label: 'ep_title_'+ getTime() }); window.open('https:\/\/castbox.fm\/episode\/id3694285-id711100663'); }); });</script></p><div id="nav-9" class="ep-item"><h3 class="ep-title">Abortion United Evangelicals and Republicans.

This decision, driven by the belief that life begins at conception, has sparked a debate within the evangelical community and potentially created a rift with mainstream Republicans who support IVF. The vote was prompted by an Alabama Supreme Court ruling that declared frozen embryos to be children, leading to a backlash and a subsequent state law restoring access to IVF. However, some evangelicals, like ethicist Andrew Walker, see this as an opportunity to bring IVF into the abortion conversation and turn the tide against it. This stance has put them at odds with mainstream Republicans who view IVF as pro-family and are actively working to protect access to it. The vote has also given Democrats an opportunity to exploit the growing divide between evangelicals and Republicans on reproductive rights, particularly in the lead-up to the 2024 presidential election. The future of IVF and its implications for the broader population of evangelical Christians remain uncertain, but the Southern Baptist Convention’s vote has undoubtedly injected a new level of complexity into the ongoing debate over reproductive rights.</p><p><iframe src="https://castbox.fm/app/castbox/player/id3694285/id711100663?v=8.22.11&autoplay=0&hide_list=1" width="100%" height="200" frameborder="0"></iframe></p></div><p><script>window.addEventListener('load', () => { document.querySelector("#nav-10 .ep-title").addEventListener('click', () => { gtag('event', 'blog_clk', { event_category: 'ep_title', event_label: 'ep_title_'+ getTime() }); window.open('https:\/\/castbox.fm\/episode\/id3694285-id709388436'); }); document.querySelector("#nav-10 .ep-cover").addEventListener('click', () => { gtag('event', 'blog_clk', { event_category: 'ep_title', event_label: 'ep_title_'+ getTime() }); window.open('https:\/\/castbox.fm\/episode\/id3694285-id709388436'); }); });</script></p><div id="nav-10" class="ep-item"><h3 class="ep-title">Biden’s Hard-Line Effort to Close the Border</h3><p><img class="ep-cover" src="https://image.simplecastcdn.com/images/7f2f4c05-9c2f-4deb-82b7-b538062bc22d/73549bf1-94b3-40ff-8aeb-b4054848ec1b/3000x3000/the-daily-album-art-original.jpg?aid=rss_feed" /></p><p class="summmary">President Biden’s new immigration policy, which suspends asylum for migrants crossing the southern border unlawfully, is a drastic shift in policy and a risky political move aimed at addressing voter concerns about immigration.</p><p class="summary">President Biden has announced a new immigration policy that suspends asylum for migrants who cross the southern border unlawfully, marking one of the most restrictive immigration policies by a Democratic president in decades. This policy, which went into effect on June 11th, is a response to the surging number of crossings at the border, which has become a major political liability for Biden. The policy is designed to deter migrants from crossing the border illegally and to send a message to voters that Biden is taking action on immigration. However, the policy has been met with criticism from both progressives and Republicans, who argue that it is too harsh and that it will not be effective in addressing the root causes of migration. The policy is also likely to face legal challenges, as it mirrors a similar policy implemented by former President Trump that was blocked by the courts. The policy’s impact on the number of asylum seekers in the US remains to be seen, but it is clear that the politics of immigration in America have shifted to the right, with both parties increasingly prioritizing enforcement over compassion.</p><p><iframe src="https://castbox.fm/app/castbox/player/id3694285/id709388436?v=8.22.11&autoplay=0&hide_list=1" width="100%" height="200" frameborder="0"></iframe></p></div> </section> <section class="qa-list"><div class="title">Q&A</div><div id="nav-11" class="qa-item"><h5 class="question">What is the main focus of The Daily podcast?</h5><p class="answer">The Daily is a news podcast that covers current events and provides in-depth analysis of important topics.
