Like the Democrats we’ve been pinning our hopes on the 2026 US mid-terms to end (or at least interrupt) Trump’s cruel circus… and now they’re finally here. Will the Republicans get the devastating punishment they deserve when America votes on Tue 3 Nov? Are the Democrats now so traumatised by poll upsets that they’re imagining a defeat into existence? And what happens after – if! – the Democrats take both Houses? Congressional staffer turned politics professor at George Washington University Casey Burgat joins us to explain what it all means. Plus: John Healey’s first Budget is coming. Liz Truss’s terrible, terrible book. And have YOU done your wartime food stockpile? Try the Sensible Prepping Checklist. • Questions for But Your Emails?
