Hey, y'all, this is Brett in Denver.
I'm with my cat Carl Sagan on the way to the vet.
He's not super happy about it, but at least I've got the NPR Politics pod to keep me entertained.
This podcast was recorded at 1:42pm Eastern Time on Tuesday, January 7th of 2025.
Things may have changed by the time you hear it, but Carl will still be pretty upset about having to go.
To the vet again.
All right, enjoy the show.
I feel like this is not the first Carl Sagan cat who's appeared on the NPR Politics.
On the politics.
Hey there.
It's the NPR Politics podcast.
I'm Asma Khalid.
I cover the White House.
I'm Franco Ordonez.
I also cover the White House.
And I'm Domenico Montanaro, senior political editor and correspondent.
And just a bit ago, President elect Donald Trump wrapped up another freewheeling news conference at his residence at Mar a Lago in Florida in which he railed against the Biden administration's plans to limit oil drilling, suggested he would rename the Gulf of Mexico.
We're going to be changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America, which has a beautiful ring that covers a lot of territory.
The Gulf of America.
What a beautiful name.
