Stay Woke

On today's episode of Politics Nation, moments ago in Selma, I joined the commemorative march across the Edmund Pettus Bridge to honor those who faced "Bloody Sunday" sixty years ago. Participating in this march has been one of my greatest honors as an activist. However, today’s observance lacked the joy of past years and felt like a call to action. The civil rights community is facing its greatest threat in decades from a Trump administration that is undermining Black advancement, erasing Black history, and attacking Black participation in society. Tonight, live from this historic site, I will discuss the generational threat to voting, civil, and human rights with three Black members of Congress, reflecting on the sacrifices made here in Selma 60 years ago.

Tariffs And Trepidation

On tonight's episode of Politics Nation, Reverend Al Sharpton criticizes the president for escalating his trade war with new tariffs on Mexico and the European Union, imposing a 30 percent import tariff allegedly starting August 1st. E.U. leaders are preparing countermeasures while continuing negotiations. This situation feels repetitive for many in the U.S., as the president habitually issues tariff threats and sets deadlines. However, some of his vocal supporters are distancing themselves due to the Justice Department's refusal to release the "Epstein files," which Trump had promised. The DOJ claims the files never existed, causing a significant rift among MAGA supporters. Even some administration members are reportedly ready to expose the truth if the files are not released.

Underneath it all

On today's 'Politics Nation', host Reverend Al Sharpton discusses another torrent of news from Washington this week. Members of the U.S. House, from both parties, acknowledged the life of Charlie Kirk as the nation grapples with his legacy ahead of the far-right podcaster's funeral tomorrow. Meanwhile, Congress held high-profile hearings on public health safety and the leadership of the top domestic law enforcement agency. These hearings devolved into confrontations between FBI Director Kash Patel and lawmakers in both chambers. To make matters worse, the Senate adjourned without passing a bill to prevent a government shutdown, leaving less than ten days to do so. But the chaos in Washington is just a surface-level distraction from the underlying tension in Trump's America. The political divide feels deeper than ever.

The Chaos Continues

In today’s episode of Politics Nation, Reverend AL discusses a tumultuous week for the second Trump administration, highlighted by the looming threat of a government shutdown. Additionally, critics argue that the Republican stopgap spending bill signed by Trump raises concerns. It fails to limit his control over federal spending. It has created a division among House Democrats, who largely stood against it, and Senate Democrats, including Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, who permitted its progress. Schumer is now facing backlash for allegedly yielding to Trump. Lastly, Trump returned to Mar-a-Lago following a Republican victory and made headlines with a controversial speech at the Justice Department. The federal budget remains unresolved, and Elon Musk’s Doge Group is scaling back government services. Significant reductions to Social Security are anticipated as voter frustration grows.

Sacrifice Zones

When toxic chemical spill from a train derailment in East Palestine, Ohio last month led to health concerns in the area, the disaster attracted widespread media coverage, action from Environmental Protection Agency, and a bipartisan push to enact stricter regulations on rail safety. Yet for residents of so-called "sacrifice zones," this kind of environmental disaster is everyday life. These communities, which are disproportionately Black, are close to industrial plants that emit carcinogens and other dangerous pollutants. This week, Into America heads to Institute, West Virginia, a Black town that has long dealt with toxic air from nearby chemical plants, to talk with resident and activist Katherine Ferguson, interim director of the community group Our Future West Virginia, about the town’s fight for justice. Trymaine Lee also talks with Dr. Sacoby Wilson, a public health professor at the University of Maryland, about why Black communities like this one are hit hardest by environmental concerns, and what can be done to prevent further disaster.

‘A Year of Healing and Heartbreak’ with Thomas Fisher

Recovery from trauma and its emanations is a defining theme of this moment. Dr. Thomas Fisher has certainly seen his share of the effects of mass disruption as an emergency medical physician. He typically has about three minutes to spend with patients who come into the South Side of Chicago ward where he works. Throughout his storied career, he’s also served as a White House fellow in the Obama administration and as a healthcare executive. He writes about his experiences in “The Emergency: A Year of Healing and Heartbreak in a Chicago ER.” Fisher joins us to talk about how our country’s healthcare system often treats the poor as expendable, how the pandemic has exacerbated longstanding- and increasingly fraught- inequities in access to good healthcare and discusses the privilege of serving in the same community that he grew up in. This conversation is presented as part of NBC and MSNBC’s cross-platform “Inspiring America” series, which highlights stories of people who’ve made an extraordinary impact on their communities and industries over the past year.

It's Not Supposed To Happen Here

Lance Stevens was standing outside his home in his calm Indianapolis neighborhood with his mother, Kim Tillman, as she dropped off the two young grandkids from a weekend at her house, when a stranger with a gun changed their lives in an instant. Lance was shot in the leg and another bullet grazed the side of his head, while his mother received the brunt of the gunfire: she was shot in the chest and armpit, and her arm and cheekbone were shattered. After decades of decline, gun violence has spiked since the pandemic. Experts told Into America that in Indianapolis, the demographics of victims are shifting, and survivors are becoming more likely to be older people and women, like Kim Tillman. It’s also creeping into neighborhoods like Northwest Indianapolis that are usually untouched. Most of the nation’s attention on gun violence is focused on mass shootings and homicides, but the vast majority of people who are shot survive. And like Kim and Lance, who were among the nearly 750 Indianapolis residents who were wounded by gun violence in 2021, these survivors not only must heal their physical wounds, but face a number of challenges and unexpected hurdles – from healthcare costs, damage to property, and navigating victim compensation funds – as the family tries to heal. A little over a year later after the shooting, host Trymaine Lee visited Lance and his wife Sophia Stevens, and grandma Kim Tillman at the Stevens’ home in Indianapolis, to talk about recovery, acceptance, and moving forward after tragedy.

To understand the partisanship and bitterness of American politics today, you have to consider what happened in 1994. Steve Kornacki steps back from the Big Board to tell the origin story of the 1994 Republican “revolution,” the midterm election when the GOP took the House majority for the first time in four decades. It was set in motion by Georgia Congressman Newt Gingrich, who — over the course of 15 years — pushed Republicans in a direction of confrontation and conservatism. Steve talks with Newt’s allies and adversaries about backroom strategy sessions and dramatic battles on the House floor. As yet another midterm threatens to upend the political landscape, Kornacki hears echoes of 1994 everywhere.
