Jen Psaki reacts to the news that Donald Trump has officially evaded accountability for his misconduct, after Special Counsel Jack Smith formally moved to dismiss the two Federal cases against him. Jen is joined by Senator-elect Adam Schiff to discuss how we arrived at this moment and the many ways those cases could have played out differently over the last 4 years. Jen is then joined by Melanie Zanona, Brendan Buck and Mark Leibovich to discuss how Trump's cabinet nominees might be considered for confirmation without undergoing FBI background checks, and the possibility that some Senate Republicans might join with Democrats to demand them. Jen also reflects on the implications of Trump's apparent decision to avoid transparency when it comes to his transition fund, which -- as of now -- can raise unlimited money without disclosing the names of donors, including from foreign nationals. Finally, Jen talks to Congressman and Veteran Pat Ryan of New York about Pete Hegseth's right-wing ideology and what it would mean for the Department of Defense if he is confirmed.
