CBS
About this episode

President Trump appears to be turning on National Security Advisor Mike Waltz after initially defending him in the Signal chat scandal, a German newspaper exposed the president’s entire national security team for lax online security practices like leaving their Venmo contacts public, and Trump declared himself “the fertilization president.” While Florida debates rolling back child labor laws, the Lone Star State is focused on legislation to control residents’ access to sex toys. Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer believes that Congressional Democrats are doing all the right things in their efforts to prevent President Trump from implementing his agenda, and he predicts that Trump supporters will eventually turn against the president. Check out his New York Times bestseller, “Antisemitism In America,” available now.
