  • Break Quorum
    Aug 3 2025
    On tonight's episode of Politics Nation, Reverend Al Sharpton discusses breaking news: Texas House Democrats are announcing plans to break quorum tomorrow. Their goal is to block a Trump-backed Republican redistricting plan that could cost them as many as five congressional seats in the upcoming midterm elections. The chairs of the Democratic Caucus will hold a press conference later tonight in Chicago, hosted by Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker. We have an all-star lineup to break it all down, including former Obama Attorney General Eric Holder.

  • Rigging The Game
    Aug 3 2025
    On today's episode of Politics Nation, host Reverend Al Sharpton discusses how Donald Trump has treated his presidency like a golf game, bending the rules for advantage. This week, Trump fired a top economist after a disappointing jobs report and is pressuring Republican lawmakers to gerrymander voting maps ahead of the midterms to mitigate political backlash. Additionally, just days before the sixtieth anniversary of the Voting Rights Act, the John Roberts Supreme Court seems ready to undermine the Act in a case affecting two Black-majority congressional districts in Louisiana.

  • Tee Times And Trade Wars
    Jul 28 2025
    On today's episode of Politics Nation, Reverend Al Sharpton discusses the breaking news: President Trump announced a deal after EU talks, amid his trip to Scotland for golf. The big question is how this impacts U.S. states and cities, which are facing economic uncertainty and social upheaval due to shifting trade policies and deportations. I'll ask Colorado Governor Jared Polis soon. Later, we explore challenges for America's mayors with the Mayor's Association President and a promising candidate for Minneapolis' next mayor. I'll also critique Trump's new executive order on homelessness, which I believe will worsen the problem.
