The Weekend August 3 7a: Controversial Confirmation

from The Weekend Hosted by Rina Shah, David Litt, Eugene Daniels, Norm Eisen, Maria Teresa Kumar, Jason Johnson

Fox News host and one of President Trump’s close allies, Jeanine Pirro, was confirmed by the Senate Saturday night as U.S. Attorney for Washington, DC. Former Special Counsel and Special Assistant to President Obama, Norm Eisen, and Political Strategist Rina Shah join The Weekend to discuss how Pirro has been known for going after the Department of Justice and pushing baseless conspiracy theories. Plus, Trump’s war on facts. Trump’s firing of the Labor Statistics Chief raises alarms about the future of government data after he claimed the newest jobs numbers were “rigged.” To listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts.
