Trump's War on Your Kids' Toys

Trump kicks off a new war on Christmas—this time as part of a
broader assault on the U.S. economy and consumers. Meanwhile, in
the first White House shakeup of his second term, Trump announces
that Signal-happy National Security Adviser Mike Waltz is out,
and Marco Rubio is in (at least on a temporary basis). Jon and
Dan discuss why Trump made the move, his admission that his
tariffs will probably lead to higher prices—and toy shortages—and
that he could, in fact, get Kilmar Abrego Garcia back from El
Salvador if he felt like it. Then, Jon speaks with Governor
Gretchen Whitmer about why she thinks it's important to work with
Trump sometimes, even if it means embarrassing photo ops—and
getting flak from other Democrats.
