Stage Set: Kamala Harris Poised for Debate, DOJ Cracks Down on Russia

Two days out from the first presidential debate between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump, Jen Psaki previews what we can expect from the candidates' performances. James Carville joins the show to discuss the state of the race, including what Harris must accomplish in the debate, how Liz Cheney's endorsement of Harris may appeal to voters, and more. Next, Michael Tyler, communications director for the Harris-Walz campaign, joins Jen to discuss the stark differences between Harris's agenda, namely their vision for affordable childcare. Later, legal expert Andrew Weissmann joins Jen to discuss the postponement of Trump's sentencing in connection with his conviction in New York. Finally, in the wake of the DOJ's crackdown, Jen analyzes the Kremlin's latest election interference campaign, including the news that several prominent right-wing pundits ended up as paid messengers for Russian propaganda. Representative Dan Goldman joins to discuss the scope of Russia's influence efforts and the impact it may already be having on voters.Check out our social pages below:https://twitter.com/InsideWithPsakihttps://www.instagram.com/InsideWithPsaki/https://www.tiktok.com/@insidewithpsakihttps://www.msnbc.com/jen-psaki To listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts.
