33:22Now PlayingTrump pushes a $1.8 billion “weaponization fund” that could funnel taxpayer money to his allies—while quietly inserting terms that may shield himself, his family, and his businesses from future scrutiny. At the same time, he admits Americans’ financial struggles aren’t factoring into his decisions as prices surge. Meanwhile, Trump-backed candidates tighten their grip on the GOP. Rick and Maya break down the corruption and what it means for the midterms.
