The Briefing with Jen Psaki

Jen Psaki tackles the biggest issues of the week and features one-on-one interviews with newsmakers.

  1. PRED 3 DNEVI

    Trump brings signature ignorance, recklessness to U.S. nuclear stature

    Jen Psaki shows Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson and Vice President JD Vance explaining out loud that the reason they don't want to fund food assistance to millions of Americans is because if they do, Democrats will have even less incentive to vote for the Republicans' budget bill, in effect admitting that they're deliberately causing pain to people they know Democrats care about as leverage to get their way on a bad budget bill. House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries talks with Jen Psaki about Republicans trying to use the pain of tens of millions of Americans going without food as a means of manipulating Democrats to vote for their bad budget bill, and points out the irony that while Donald Trump has never met a law he didn't think he could ignore, he is trying to use the law as an excuse to avoid funding the food assistance program SNAP. Curiously coinciding with a fictional TV movie about U.S. nuclear readiness, Donald Trump has taken a sudden interest in testing U.S. nuclear capability and, against conventional good judgment, has announced that interest out loud in public. Mark Hertling, former commanding general of United States Army Europe, joins Jen Psaki to discuss how nuclear issues are addressed when they're handled by a competent administration, and why it's a bad idea for U.S. leaders to muse about the possibility that the nuclear arsenal doesn't work.

    'No Kings Alliance' launches in wake of massive nationwide protests as movement's next step

    It has been weeks since Adelita Grijalva was elected to represent Arizona's 7th congressional district in Congress, but because Grijalva would represent the deciding vote to force a vote on the release of the Jeffrey Epstein investigation files, Mike Johnson has found every excuse he can to postpone swearing Grijalva into office so she can officially begin work on behalf of her constituents. Now Arizona is out of patience and has sued Johnson directly for denying representation in Congress to the American voters who elected Grijalva. Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes joins Jen Psaki to discuss. Fresh from the massive success of Saturday's "No Kings" protest, many people are asking what comes next. Ezra Levin, co-founder of Indivisible, talks with Jen Psaki about how the No Kings movement can make productive use of its momentum, and the launch of the "No Kings Alliance" for rapid response activism. Jen Psaki reports on Paul Ingrassia, Donald Trump's nominee to lead the Office of the Special Counsel, who managed to stay in good standing with Republicans despite a long string of scandals, but ultimately withdrew his himself from the confirmation process after new reports, which he disputes, that he once described himself as having a 'Nazi streak,' an accusation that cost him too many Republican votes to sustain his nomination.
