Episode Fear of HEGSETH IMPEACHMENT sends Congress to early vacation
Jen Psaki explains how articles of impeachment against Pete Hegseth, filed by Republican Rep. Thomas Massie, put House Speaker Mike Johnson and House Republicans in an awkward position so he ended the session a day early to avoid having to deal with it. This comes as new reports show that the Trump administration is not being forthcoming about the damage Iran is inflicting on U.S. assets. Senator Mark Kelly joins to share his views on the matter.
The United States declared measles eliminated in 2000, but Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been working hard to make that no longer the case. Jen Psaki traces Kennedy Jr.'s anti-vaccine activism through his time as Donald Trump's Health and Human Services secretary overseeing a surge in preventable measles cases including several deaths. Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, whose state has been hit particularly hard by the measles outbreak, joins to discuss.
