After Party with Emily Jashinsky

Emily Jashinsky breaks down the controversy surrounding Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed, journalist Jan Crawford's public comments about the story, and reports that CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss pushed reporters to investigate allegations involving El-Sayed and James Talarico. Then Emily is joined by comedian Dave Smith, host of “Part of the Problem,” to react to Vice President JD Vance's tense CBS News town hall, including an emotional confrontation with the widower of a service member killed in the Iran war. Dave delivers a sharp critique of the Trump administration's handling of the conflict, its failure to deliver on key campaign promises, and mounting questions about corruption. Emily and Dave also examine Trump's efforts to negotiate an end to the Ukraine war and the return of familiar Russiagate accusations. The conversation shifts to the backlash against Shane Gillis' controversial “Saturday Night Live” monologue and Michael Che's uncomfortable “Today” show interview about it. Dave defends Gillis, warns against a return to woke-era cancellation campaigns, and weighs in on changing political priorities among younger Americans. Emily also examines newly released Snapchat messages and medical findings in the Nolan Wells case, challenging singer Hayley Williams' unsupported claims about a racially motivated killing while emphasizing the unanswered questions surrounding Wells' death. Emily rounds out the show with a review of Nathan Fielder's new Elizabeth Holmes documentary, “You Can See Everything” (spoiler alert!). She explores Amanda Seyfried's unusual role in the film and Fielder's larger argument about the reliability of documentaries, the influence of editing and personal bias, and whether audiences can ever fully trust what they see on screen.

Plus, Emily discusses the “no contact” family trend, the ethics of live-streaming executions, Gavin Newsom’s 2028 prospects, the Russia-Ukraine war, whether Congress could rein in presidential war powers, how much faith voters should put in midterm polling, the return of “Girls,” and more…
