The Political Junkie is turning his analytical gaze west. Ken Rudin, known to NPR listeners from his many years talking all things politics with Neal Conan on "Talk of the Nation," joins Insight host Beth Ruyak for our signature segment that puts California politics in the context of the national scene. Rudin joins us from Washington D.C. in an effort to put it all in perspective.

This week, Rudin recaps President Trump's tweets about Time Magazine's Man Of The Year issue, Rep. John Conyers resigning from his House Judiciary post, and Rep. Nancy Pelosi's reaction on Meet The Press.
