Obama Staffers Explain The State Of The Union Address | Let's Break It Down

Описание: This week on Let’s Break It Down, Jon Favreau (former White House Director of Speechwriting for President Barack Obama) talks to Alyssa Mastromonaco about what it’s like to write the State of the Union address ahead of Joe Biden's first Joint Address to Congress. Then they reveal the decision-making processes behind other important details including who the Designated Survivor will be.

Pardon our goof at 20:54 when Alyssa accidentally refers to Harry Reid as Senate Minority Leader, when in fact he was Majority Leader at that time.

Crooked believes that we need a better conversation about politics, culture, and the world around us—one that doesn’t just focus on what’s broken, but what we can do to fix it. At a time when it’s increasingly easy to feel cynical or hopeless, former Obama staffers Jon Favreau, Jon Lovett, and Tommy Vietor have created a place where people can have sane conversations that inform, entertain, and inspire action. In 2017 they started Crooked with Pod Save America—a no-bullshit conversation about politics. Since then, we continue to add shows, voices, and opportunities for activism, because it’s up to all of us to do our part to build a better world. That’s it. End of mission.
