Pushing Putin's Buttons

TYT NETWORK
About this episode

Biden has authorized Ukraine to use U.S. arms for strikes inside Russia. Maggie Haberman reports that the race for Trump’s Treasury Secretary has turned into a ""knife fight"" after a top contender reportedly ""got on Trump’s nerves."" Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski shared details of a ""personal"" visit with Trump aimed at ""restarting communications."" A Financial Times analysis revealed that around one-third of all funds raised by Trump’s campaign and allied groups came from billionaires, compared to 6% for Harris’s campaign groups. Trump allies are urging him to fire the FBI director early and appoint loyalist Kash Patel."
