July 18, 2025; 5pm: On today’s episode of Politics Nation, Reverend Al Sharpton addresses the outrage from President Trump regarding ongoing questions about his administration's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case, despite years of conspiracy theories from Trump and his supporters. This controversy has engaged top Justice Department officials and divided the MAGA base. Additionally, America is facing the consequences of the "big, beautiful spending bill," which includes significant tax cuts for the wealthy and cuts to social safety programs. Economic inflation is rising due to Trump’s mass deportations and an escalating trade war. It appears that the summer will be a long and challenging one for both the president and the nation.
