  "account": "Washington Week With The Atlantic recently aired a discussion about the significance of the upcoming midterm elections. Adam Harris, a host of Radio Atlantic, suggested that the races are essentially a referendum on President Trump's policies from the past two years. These policies, including the ongoing war in Iran, are being linked to voter concerns over rising prices. The Atlantic's editor in chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, was joined by Carrie Dann, managing editor of The Cook Political Report; Harris; Jonathan Karl, ABC News' chief Washington correspondent; and Annie Linskey, a White House reporter for The Wall Street Journal. The full episode is available for viewing.",
