Lawrence O'Donnell & Rep. Jason Crow

Rep. Jason Crow said Pete Hegseth’s public execution plan is the opposite of the military’s ethos of servant leadership and the “quiet professional,” arguing that it turns service into performance politics, sends a message of vengeance rather than duty, and makes the country less safe by aiding enemy propaganda; he also said capital punishment is not a deterrent, is morally and financially costly, and that Hegseth is catering to the far right instead of facts. Crow then discussed Tina Peters, saying her release should not have happened because she showed no contrition, doubled down on election denialism, and is now back in the Trump orbit helping push plans that could suppress votes. On elections, he said Democrats must recruit strong, real candidates focused on their districts, acknowledge where the party has fallen short, and speak honestly about corruption and working-class anger, which he believes both parties have helped create. He added that oversight, subpoenas, hearings, and even impeachment are tools to remove Hegseth and clean up the Pentagon, but the real goal is accountability and protecting constituents and service members.

What Trump's Hiding About Hegseth w/ Rep. Jason Crow

MSNOW's Lawrence O'Donnell describes the midterms as a potentially historic break in the political map, arguing that Republicans are now paying the price for Donald Trump’s inability to appeal beyond his base and for a party that has failed to speak to independents and Democrats, with Susan Collins offered as a rare exception because she has tried to talk to a broader electorate. He says the first Senate vote matters most because it determines control of the chamber and its committees, which in turn affects Supreme Court appointments, and he points to Trump-era corruption and incompetence as examples of what voters may reject. Reflecting on the 1994 midterms, he recalls how unexpectedly Democrats lost both the House and Senate and how that election permanently changed Bill Clinton’s governing style, while arguing that if Trump loses this cycle he is unlikely to respond in the same conciliatory way.

Trump’s New “You’re Fired” CHANGE UP w/ Lawrence O’Donnell

Senator Tammy Baldwin discusses the pressures facing Wisconsin farmers, including record-high diesel and fertilizer costs, tariffs, lost export markets, and the impact of Trump’s trade decisions on beef and soy producers, while also warning that climate change, flooding, drought, and water contamination are adding to agricultural challenges. She then turns to election security in Wisconsin, arguing that local clerks are carefully safeguarding voting and criticizing election denialism and threats to ballot security, before explaining that flipping the Senate would allow Democrats to set the agenda, block harmful bills, shape potential Supreme Court nominations, and begin advancing policies that make life more affordable and improve opportunity. Plus as a bonus we have journalist and author Beth Macy about her run to flip Virginia’s 6th congressional district.
