Checks Please: Democratic Governors Vow to Stand Up to Trump

Jen Psaki breaks down Donald Trump's staffing picks and what they reveal about his dark vision for a second term. Jen is joined by Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey to discuss her plans to combat Trump's policies, including protecting reproductive rights and women's healthcare. Next, civil rights attorney Sherrilyn Ifill joins the show to analyze the legalities of Trump's plan to end birthright citizenship. Jen is also joined by Rep. Dan Goldman to discuss how Trump and his allies might pursue his perceived enemies. Later, Jen talks about Trump's recent call with Vladimir Putin, which the Kremlin denies even took place, and how it fits into a pattern of deception about his relationship with Russia. Jen also sits down with Rep.-Elect Kelly Morrison to discuss her recent victory and how she plans to continue the fight for reproductive rights as the only pro-choice OB-GYN in Congress. Finally, Jen closes the show with some thoughts on the rising stars in the democratic party that could potentially lead the party in 2028.
