President Trump took a weekend trip to Scotland to promote his latest golf course, with taxpayers footing the bill. However, this trip was met with protestors showing opposition to the administration's immigration policies, the war in Gaza, and his ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Eugene Robinson and Brendan Buck join The Weekend to discuss the optics of this trip as the country demands answers about Epstein. Plus, fired federal workers are spending the summer on Capitol Hill with their kids, forcing lawmakers to see the true cost of their cuts to government. Former USAID worker Kathleen Borgueta joins The Weekend to explain. 

President Trump unleashed a retribution campaign inside the Department of Justice on those involved in either investigating him or those who dealt with the January 6 cases. Former Senior Trial Counsel Mike Gordon was among the group who were terminated without warning in June. He joins The Weekend to share his story and discuss how he is now suing the Trump administration over the firing. Plus, Trump is playing politics with disaster aid. After approving disaster relief for several Republican states, the president denied FEMA aid to Maryland after devastating floods swept through the state. Maryland Governor Wes Moore joins The Weekend to discuss.

President Trump's DOJ continues to take unprecedented actions in handling the Jeffrey Epstein case. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche met with Epstein's convicted co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell, but little is known about what was discussed between the two. Former Attorney General Eric Holder joins The Weekend to share his thoughts on the two-day meeting.
