Protests Rain on Trump's Parade

Trump's long-planned birthday parade gets overshadowed by massive
"No Kings" protests around the country and the cold-blooded
murder of a prominent Minnesota lawmaker and her husband.
Meanwhile, Israel launches a preemptive war against Iran—a war
that Trump hasn't quite ruled out joining. Jon, Lovett, and Tommy
discuss the weekend's competing optics, the deeply troubling rise
of political violence in America, and the latest offering from
the Trump family hucksters: a shiny gold smartphone from the
newly founded Trump Mobile. Then, Jon talks with Maryland
Governor Wes Moore about his political future, why he vetoed a
reparations bill, and the role that governors can play in this
dangerous moment.
