Description
Jen Psaki outlines Donald Trump's Big Lie 2.0 as he revives his 'stop the steal' playbook ahead of the presidential election and signals he'll pardon supporters who commit crimes on his behalf. Rep. Adam Schiff joins the show to reflect on Trump's increasingly dark proposals and their implications for November, as well as Speaker Mike Johnson's allegiance to the former president. Next, Jen is joined by Quentin Fulks, Biden-Harris 2024 principal deputy campaign manager, to discuss the campaign's recent $50 million ad buy highlighting Trump's criminal conviction. Jen is also joined by Patrick Gaspard and Anthony Romero to discuss the groundwork being laid by progressive groups to resist Trump's authoritarian plans in a potential second term. Later, Senator Bob Casey joins Jen to discuss some of the top issues for Pennsylvania voters, including inflation, abortion rights, and Trump's guilty verdict. Finally, Jen shares the inspiring story of Gabrielle Rose, a 46-year-old swimmer who was the oldest competitor at the Olympic trials this year.
