About this episode

On this week's episode of 'The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart': Clashes are increasing as more pro-Palestinian protests emerge on college campuses across the country. I'll talk to two lawmakers who have met with students on the front lines of the action at Columbia University. North Carolina Rep. Kathy Manning and New York Rep. Jamaal Bowman join me to discuss what they've heard from students. I’ll also examine what Donald Trump is really doing during his hush-money election-interference trial and what to expect during week two of testimony. Adam Klasfeld was there in the room where it happened and will give me the inside story. And with Trump using the Bible as a money-making venture, I'm left to wonder why so many Christian evangelicals support someone awash in moral controversy. Noted theologian Jim Wallis has a new book that might have the answer. All that and more on “The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart.”
