Former Biden White House Deputy Cabinet Secretary Daniel Koh and former Federal Prosecutor Paul Butler join The Weekend to discuss the tangled saga President Trump has gotten himself into over Jeffrey Epstein. Plus, new reporting reveals Trump is getting annoyed with Attorney General Pam Bondi's handling of the Epstein files. And, Tennessee State Rep. Justin Jones, who you may remember from the "Tennessee Three," joins The Weekend to share what happened to him after being barred from DHS Secretary Kristi Noem's press conference, an event that was held in his own district. She was there to promote a "self-deportation" plan that would offer migrants $1,000 and a one-way ticket out of the country.

All eyes are on Texas as the state's legislature is set to convene for a special session that will likely be dominated by one agenda item: President Trump's demand to redraw the state's congressional maps. Former Texas congressman Colin Allred joins The Weekend to discuss the implications this could have on the midterms. And, as extreme flooding hits many parts of the nation, the Trump administration shut down a federal website that presented congressionally mandated reports and research on climate change. Representative Eric Sorensen, the only meteorologist in the U.S. Congress, joins The Weekend to explain how these budget cuts could make it more difficult to predict storms. Plus, Emmy-winning actor Jim Parsons joins The Weekend to discuss "Reclaim The Flag," a new documentary which unpacks the LGBTQ+ community's relationship with the American flag and examines how it can be reclaimed as a symbol of unity for all Americans. 

New reporting details the Justice Department's plot to obtain voter rolls and election data from multiple states. These unprecedented steps are raising concerns among election officials ahead of the 2026 midterms. Colorado's Attorney General Phil Weiser and Executive Director of the Colorado County Clerks Association Matt Crane join The Weekend to discuss. Plus, Gretchen Carlson talks about her former Fox News boss Rupert Murdoch and his very complicated relationship with Donald Trump, who now has a $10B libel suit against Murdoch and his company over the latest Wall Street Journal reporting about Jeffrey Epstein.
