from The Weeknight · host Michael Steele, Eugene Daniels, Vaughn Hillyard, Skye Perryman, Sarah Matthews, Dr. Joshua Sharfstein
August 11, 2026, 7pm: Sweeping changes inside Trump's DOJ to shield the president from prosecution are underway, hours after Trump's former personal attorney is sworn in as AG. MS NOW Legal Analyst Mary McCord joins The Weeknight to break it down. And, Trump is rolling back decades of childhood vaccine guidance, signing an executive order calling for children to be vaccinated against 11 diseases… instead of the 18 currently advised by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Dr. Joshua Sharferstein, distinguished professor of the practice in health policy and management at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Health, joins The Weeknight to explain the dangerous consequences of the executive order.
