Wall Street’s Version of a ‘Caravan’ (Hour 1)
Wall Street on Monday had a combination of a temper tantrum (interest rates) and a bubble bursting (tech stocks). It created the unsightly spectacle of some Republicans again cheering for a recession. Is this what’s replacing imaginary caravans from Mexico as a campaign tactic? Also Cherita Booker has some of our most popular social media posts and Christina Lorey has some uplifting stories you’ll find in our daily newsletter.

Angry White Guys Finally Catch a Break (Hour 1)

Love That Dirty Water (Hour 1)
Republicans are returning to the state Capitol on Tuesday—but not to release more than $125 million to clean up polluted drinking water supplies around Wisconsin. Instead, they’ll hold symbolic votes designed for their campaign literature. Also, Donald Trump again falls asleep in his hush money election interference trial. So national media will start talking about his advanced age now, right? Right?
