Amb. Norm Eisen, executive chair of Democracy Defenders Fund, and Terry Moran, former senior national correspondent for ABC News discuss Zacharia's first day and Trump's war on the press.
Speaker Mike Johnson has a reason to gaslight his supporters about terrible polling data, but many Americans don't need a political bias to be skeptical of poll numbers. Could the consistent good news Democrats are seeing from the polls be true, or is there something poll watchers are overlooking? David Plouffe, former Obama campaign manager, joins to discuss.
Bill Hill, independent candidate for Congress from Alaska, talks with Jen about his race and the political climate that has Donald Trump stumping desperately in a state he won just two years ago.
