About this episode
First: President Trump is threatening to deploy federal forces to Chicago this week. He claims his focus is combating crime and controlling immigration. But why only in Democratic zip codes?
Plus: Nine former CDC directors are joining forces to sound the alarm on what Robert F. Kennedy Jr. Is doing to the agency. They say it's "endangering every American's health."
And: Democrats are getting another chance to block President Trump's agenda. But can they agree on a playbook that also keeps the government's lights on?
