Episode Details

President Donald Trump gives his first State of the Union speech tonight, which he says is "going to be a long speech because we have a lot to talk about." We get a preview from White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, Republican and Democratic Congressional leaders and Gov. Abigail Spanberger (D-VA), who will be giving the Democratic response. And The Hill's congressional reporter Emily Brooks on the Democrats who have already said they will boycott tonight's speech (18); House votes down a bill requiring aircraft broadcast locator signals which supporters say could have prevented last year's deadly midair collision between a commercial plane and military helicopter near Reagan National Airport. Opponents have introduced an alternative aviation safety bill they say goes further than the one that failed today; On this fourth anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, we hear from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and the Russian & U.S. Ambassadors to the United Nations; Rep. Tony Gonzales (R-TX) says he will not resign after accusations he had an affair with the female staffer who committed suicide last year and the discovery of text messages that appear to show the congressman pressured her to “Send me a sexy pic."
