Andrew Wilson, Candace Owens, Drew, Mark Cuban, Ro Khanna, Ryan, Tom Bilyeu

They then discuss the public exchange between Rep. Ro Khanna and Mark Cuban on wealth taxation, with Bilyeu siding with Cuban on the mechanics of taxing paper wealth. Finally, the team digs into new Census Bureau voter data and ends in a genuine disagreement about what it reveals, using the moment as a lesson in how perception colors interpretation.
