About this episode

Desi Lydic and Jordan Klepper cover the latest news surrounding the Biden campaign, including a call from George Clooney for Biden to step down. Plus, they tackle Trump's latest rally ramblings. Trump has been a big proponent of the Taiwan-based electronic manufacturer Foxconn's opening of a massive factory in Wisconsin, promising thousands of new jobs. But it seems like the people of Wisconsin have been Fox-conned. Ronny Chieng investigates. Also, New York Times reporters Elizabeth Dias & Lisa Lerer sit down with Desi & Jordan to talk about their new book, “The Fall of Roe: The Rise of a New America.”
