Transcript:
MAGA spent a decade attacking Barack Obama’s Iran nuclear deal. They said it’s a giveaway. It’s a disaster. It’s surrender. And now Trump’s administration is admitting that Iran could get access to hundreds of billions of dollars, while they admit that a whole bunch of the details haven’t even been worked out, even though Donald Trump has already declared victory. Wait until you hear the Vice President, JD Vance, explain what’s actually in the agreement.
Then, a bizarre G7 appearance raises new questions as Donald Trump is struggling through meetings. He’s making confusing comments about Iran. He contradicts his own negotiators.
And I will be joined by Robert Reich for a fascinating conversation about authoritarianism, about populism, what Democrats should do, what he believes is going on with Donald Trump.
And later, the reflecting pool. After millions of your taxpayer dollars pour in to fix it, the algae is back and it looks just as bad as ever.
Oh, and by the way, Trump is now having Gavin Newsom and his wife investigated.
Let’s record this one. We might as well publish it, I think.
