Shock Doctrine

Tonight, on Politics Nation, President Donald Trump’s second week back in the White House is proving to be every bit as confrontational and divisive as the first. Trump’s tariffs for Canada, Mexico and China have gone into effect. Economists warn they could raise prices for everyday Americans. The administration has also begun a purge of FBI agents who investigated January 6th and six senior officials have already been fired.And on the 1st day of Black History Month, Rev. Al Sharpton convenes a special Civil Rights Summit where leaders in the movement including Martin Luther King III, Benjamin Crump and Judith Browne-Dianis talk about how to fight for our rights in the age of Trump 2.0.
