As tradition has it, November is full of surprises in the world of politics, and Thanksgiving week was no different.
Coming off the heals of the Democratic Convention in Sacramento, Rep. Tony Cárdenas declared he would not seek reelection next year for the 29th Congressional District seat representing the San Fernando Valley.
"Inside the Issues: The Podcast" hosts Alex Cohen and Sara Sadhwani explain the significance of Cárdenas making his announcement after the convention.
Plus, back from the event, Sara reports on the Israeli-Palestinian protests that shut the convention down.
And a look at who's in and who's out for the most powerful posts in the California Assembly.
Lastly, something to be thankful for. The reopening of Interstate 10 happened sooner than expected following a fire.
