Episode 70
7am: All eyes are on Chicago after President Trump's continued threats to deploy the National Guard to the Windy City. On Saturday, Chicago's Mayor Brandon Johnson signed an executive order demanding that Trump stand down. In response, President Trump continued his threats, warning Illinois Governor JB Pritzker to "straighten out" Chicago quickly or the city will be subjected to federal law enforcement takeover. The President has echoed these threats to several Democrat-led cities, and elected officials are issuing a warning: military troops who carry out Trump's orders might be at risk for prosecution. Philadelphia's District Attorney, Larry Krasner, joins "The Weekend" to discuss.
8am: Donald Trump says some people might like a dictator and declares he has the right to do anything he wants. From saying he would be comfortable if both the former FBI director and CIA director were arrested to ramping up his war on Democratic-led cities, Trump has sparked concerns about authoritarianism. Executive chair of the Democracy Defenders Fund and former White House ethics czar under President Obama, Norm Eisen, former federal prosecutor and MSNBC legal analyst, Joyce Vance, and former DHS Chief of Staff during Donald Trump's first term, Miles Taylor join "The Weekend" to discuss.
9am: The Epstein estate plans to hand over the convicted sex offender's 'Birthday Book' and other documents to Congress on September 8th. The book is reportedly filled with well wishes from friends and associates, including an explicit message and drawing by President Trump, which he denies. Epstein survivors Jess Michaels and Teresa Helm, join The Weekend to discuss, as well as Ameshia Cross, and Eugene Craig.
