On today's episode of Ten Minute Drill, Supreme Court Justices Amy Coney Barrett and Elena Kagan testify before Congress about escalating threats against the Supreme Court, including a swatting call at Barrett's home. We also cover the Democratic Socialists of America's push to abolish the U.S. Senate, restructure the Supreme Court, grant amnesty to all immigrants, and defund the Department of War.
Plus: growing bipartisan calls to investigate foreign influence campaigns targeting U.S. AI data center projects, a new report on how private climate risk scores from First Street — tied to BlackRock, Vanguard, and State Street — may be quietly lowering American home values with no appeals process, and our Waste Wednesday segment on a Texas hospital using taxpayer-subsidized 340B funding to advertise "birth packages" to expectant mothers crossing the U.S.-Mexico border. We close with the latest from the Michigan Senate race, where Medicare for All candidate Abdul El-Sayed faces scrutiny over his wife's private medical practice, plus an update on Haley Stevens' campaign.
