YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Democrats had maximum leverage during the shutdown—Trump was getting booed, polls were turning against Republicans, and pressure was mounting. Then 8 Democratic senators folded, teaching Trump that hostage-taking works. Now he's on a pardon spree for election deniers and is seriously considering clemency for Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein's accomplice serving 20 years for sex trafficking minors. Pod Save America's Dan Pfeiffer and former DOJ Pardon Attorney Liz Oyer join Jim to discuss the news.
