Jake talks to Arizona Senator Jeff Flake about the CIA assesment that the Saudi Crown Prince likely ordered the murder of Jamal Khashoggi, the Mueller investigation, and his potential 2020 presidential run. Jake is then joined by former Georgia Democratic gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams to discuss her allegations of voter suppression and her next steps in politics. Next, Jake speaks with three new members of the congress, New Mexico Democrat Deb Haaland, Texas Republican Dan Crenshaw, and Pennsylvania Democrat Chrissy Houlahan regarding civility in politics, Trump's decision to not visit the Arlington cemetery on Veteran's Day, and their opinion on Nancy Pelosi as leader of the house. Then, our panel of Richard Ojeda, Michael Caputo, Karine Jean-Pierre, and Amanda Carpenter join to discuss Trump's response to the fires in California, Republican Senator Cinde Hyde-Smith's recent rhetoric, and the direction of the democratic party in 2020. Finally, on this week's State of the Cartoonion, Jake depicts the measures states took in order to secure their city as the new amazon headquarters and who came out on top.
