2411 - Immigration, Gaza & Progressive Strategy In The House w/ Rep. Pramila Jayapal
1Description
It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma speak with Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA-07) to discuss what to expect from the upcoming Trump administration's immigration agenda, and how the Republican-controlled Congress might govern. First, Sam and Emma check in on Pete Hegseth's confirmation hearing for Defense Secretary, with Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine putting the screws to him on the allegations against Hegseth regarding numerous instances of infidelity and sexual misconduct (to say nothing of the financial mismanagement!) Then, they speak with Rep. Jayapal, first discussing her role on the Judiciary Committee as ranking member of the immigration subcommittee, her thoughts on the Laken Riley Act that is making its way through the Senate, and what to expect from the incoming Trump administration when it comes to mass deportation efforts. She then discusses what to expect from the Congressional Progressive Caucus now that she is no longer chair (she is chair emerita however!) under Rep. Greg Casar's stewardship, and where Democrats can go in terms of messaging to have more success then they did in November's elections.
And in the Fun Half, Sam, Emma, and the MR Crew discuss the late night unveiling of former Special Counsel Jack Smith's report on Trump's supposed election interference in the 2020 election and on January 6th, 2021, the continued apathy coming from the likes of Speaker Johnson & Sen. Tommy Tuberville about conditioning wildfire aid to California, the prospects of a Trump-brokered ceasefire (and how upsetting that is to the Israeli right), and, finally, a Morning Joe guest shocking a panel by discussing the prospects of class war. Plus, your calls & IM's!
