Jen Psaki explains why Donald Trump's embrace of Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is an attempt to justify his own behavior and why we should expect people across the country to continue to push back. Former National Security Advisor Susan Rice joins Jen to discuss the concerning implications of Trump turning his back on Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Next, Jen is joined by Former Labor Secretary Robert Reich to discuss the chaos caused by Elon Musk emailing a request for federal workers to justify their work or resign while department heads urge their employees not to respond. Then, Jen breaks down NYC Mayor Eric Adams's decade-long ties to Turkey as the saga of his corruption case continues. Former Manhattan DA Cy Vance joins the show to react to the latest in the Adams case, including a federal judge's ruling to adjourn the trial rather than dismiss the case outright. Jen is also joined by attorney Omar Gonzalez-Pagan, as well as a student activist, Niro, and her mother Manija - who are pushing back against Trump's executive order targeting the trans community. Finally, Jen shares a preview of her conversation with longtime journalist Jemele Hill which drops tomorrow in a new episode of her podcast "The Blueprint with Jen Psaki".
