Episode 71
7am: In a sign that the Trump administration is planning a repeat of what happened in Los Angeles in June, fencing was put up around a federal courthouse in downtown Chicago in preparation for protests. The Pentagon has officially greenlit using a Naval base north of the city as a staging ground to launch operations. Former House Rep. Max Rose and Maya Wiley join The Weekend to discuss President Trump's plans in Chicago and DC.
8am: The Epstein estate is set to hand over a trove of documents to lawmakers, including the infamous "birthday book," flight logs, phone records and financial transactions. Survivors met this week to pressure Congress to fully release the files. And if they don't, they plan to compile their own list of names. Maya Wiley, president and CEO of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, joins "The Weekend" to discuss.
9am: "It's not fair to say they're losing credibility. We're past that now," is what a judge recently said about the Department of Justice's handling of arrests during Trump's law enforcement surge in DC. The DOJ incurred a substantial amount of losses in court recently concerning deportations, tariffs, college grants, and more – though the Trump administration has already appealed many of these rulings in the hope of getting them in front of the conservative majority Supreme Court. Legal expert Andrew Weissmann and senior adviser of The Lincoln Project, Stuart Stevens, join "The Weekend" to discuss what's next.
