2025 - 39: Episode 39

On tonight's episode of Politics Nation, The Reverend Al Sharpton discusses how, after being treated like royalty by Arab leaders during his trip to the Middle East this week, Donald Trump is returning to Washington, where the checks and balances of democracy conflict with his aspirations of ruling like a strongman. Meanwhile, the Supreme Court has thrown a major obstacle in Trump's mass deportation plans, ruling that Venezuelan detainees must be given more time to present their cases in court. The Court emphasized that the constitutional right to due process must be upheld, even as this administration seeks to target Democratic lawmakers who advocate for the same rights.
