Description
On today’s show, Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Rep. Adam Schiff provide an urgent roadmap for how to check presidential power in a pandemic. Mother Jones Washington DC bureau chief David Corn interviews the top Democrats about investigating what Trump knew about the potential pandemic, when he knew it, and how to track the taxpayer dollars being dished out from Trump’s $500 billion coronavirus "slush fund". Few people know more about financial oversight during a crisis than Warren. She led the congressional panel that monitored how billions in federal bailout funds were spent—and misspent—following the 2008 crash. And Rep. Adam Schiff has been a relentless chaser of Trump corruption. He ran the House impeachment hearings, and led the House impeachment managers during the Senate trial. Schiff says he is now on the coronavirus case.
