Episode 78

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries discusses the government shutdown and Democrats' strategy moving forward; a live report from Tel Aviv hours after Hamas conditionally accepts parts of President Trump's 20-point peace plan; NYC Comptroller Brad Lander digs into the nationwide dangers of Trump's latest attacks on his city; and all the ways in which Trump wins from the government shutting down, no matter if or when, the government reopens.

President Trump and his "Secretary of War" addressed hundreds of generals and admirals this week to prime our military's top brass for a new enemy: the "enemy within"; how this government shutdown has laid bare that Congress is more broken than ever under rule of Republicans' who pledge fealty to the president; and gone are the days of "regular order' in Congress, which would have the late Sen. John McCain rolling in his grave.

Ali dives into his copy of Project 2025 to highlight why this government shutdown is unlike any other in American history; a live report from Tel Aviv hours after Hamas conditionally accepted parts of Trump's 20-point peace plan; PEN America president Jennifer Finney Boylan discusses the organization's new report warning of the ‘disturbing normalization' of book bans in American schools.
