24:18Now PlayingSeven years ago, during Donald Trump’s first presidential term, the US endured the longest government shutdown in its history: 35 days. Now, in the first year of Donald Trump's second presidential term, with Republicans and Republican appointees controlling all three branches of government, the government is shut down again. How long will this shutdown last? What short-term and long-term impacts will the shutdown have on poor and working people, on the Affordable Care Act, on the Trump agenda, and on the Congressional battle to release the Epstein files? TRNN Editor-in-Chief and “Inequality Watch” hosts Taya Graham and Stephen Janis break down your questions on Day 1 of the government shutdown.
Studio Production / Post-Production: Cameron Granadino
