About this listen

 In this weekend's episode, three segments from this past week's Washington Journal. First: A discussion with Investigative journalist Dave Levinthal about a new push to ban individual stock trading by Members of Congress – and whether HE thinks it'll finally pass. Then: Brad Bowman of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies takes a closer look at the Trump administration's promised sale of F-35s to Saudi Arabia – and how it COULD impact the balance of power in the Mideast. Finally: It's been over 50 years since the assassination of Robert F. Kennedy, but political commentator and author Chris Matthews says RFK's political influence can still be felt today. He joins us to talk about his new book "Lessons from Bobby." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
