YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Trump’s DOJ is creating a $1.7 billion "Anti-Weaponization Fund.” It’s part of a deal resolving Trump’s lawsuit over leaked tax returns but will compensate his allies who say they were mistreated by the Biden-era Justice Department. Is America paying attention to the inside job? Democrats and watchdogs are already denouncing the move as an unprecedented taxpayer-funded slush fund and are promising legal challenges.

It appears Americans are getting fleeced and Mark Thompson returns to make sure we know exactly what is going down.

Pulitzer Prize winning author and investigative journalist David Cay Johnston will stop by to help make sense of it all.

Can America be saved? Jared Yates Sexton, political analyst and author of the book The Midnight Kingdom: A History of Power, Paranoia, and the Coming Crisis will join the conversation.
