Then Playbook co-authors Will Steakin and Adam Wren invite Playbook contributor Megan Messerly to discuss Darline Graham’s bid in South Carolina’s special election, the fallout post Trump’s latest executive order on vaccine schedules, and the legacy of “Woke 1.” For more news and analysis, subscribe to the Playbook newsletter: politico.com/playbook
