Trump National Guard stunt REJECTED by Maryland governor: 'I will not authorize'
from The Briefing with Jen Psaki · host Wes Moore, Jen Psaki, John Brennan
The truth of Donald Trump's deployment of the National Guard to police Washington, D.C. is evident in the demographics of other cities he claims to want to target. Governor Wes Moore makes it clear that he is not interested in playing along with Trump's stunt if Trump tries to move on to Baltimore. Moore also says that redistricting in his state is possible if Donald Trump persists in trying to rig the 2026 election with red state gerrymandering.Plus, Jen Psaki answers White House press briefing questions, minus the Trump White House spin, and the best outcome to hope for from Trump's Friday meeting with Vladimir Putin is that Trump doesn't do too much damage.Follow us on Bluesky at @briefingwithpsaki.bsky.social...and on Threads at @thebriefingwithpsaki To listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts.
