About this listen

On today's 'Politics Nation', host Reverend Al Sharpton discusses another torrent of news from Washington this week. Members of the U.S. House, from both parties, acknowledged the life of Charlie Kirk as the nation grapples with his legacy ahead of the far-right podcaster's funeral tomorrow. Meanwhile, Congress held high-profile hearings on public health safety and the leadership of the top domestic law enforcement agency. These hearings devolved into confrontations between FBI Director Kash Patel and lawmakers in both chambers. To make matters worse, the Senate adjourned without passing a bill to prevent a government shutdown, leaving less than ten days to do so. But the chaos in Washington is just a surface-level distraction from the underlying tension in Trump's America. The political divide feels deeper than ever. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
