On this week's episode of 'The Saturday Show with Jonathan Capehart': Bully. President Trump is using the bully pulpit of the presidency to bend critics and the reluctant at home and abroad to his will. Ruth Ben-Ghiat will explain how this fits an authoritarian pattern. And Democratic Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove joins me to discuss Trump’s daily threats to federal workers and agencies, and his new demand of support for Speaker Johnson's new short-term spending bill to avoid a government shutdown in 6 days. D.C.'s Dilemma: The mayor of the nation's capitol, Muriel Bowser joins me for a wide-ranging conversation, from Trump’s threat of a federal takeover to why D.C.’s relationship with the President and Congress is way more fraught than any other city or state in the country. Social Insecurity. Martin O'Malley, former commissioner of the Social Security Administration, explains why he says recent cuts to the safety net for millions of seniors could collapse the program in 90 days or less. And, on Wisconsin: Another crucial race for that state's Supreme Court that could swing the ideological majority conservative. Judge Susan Crawford is running to ensure the court maintains its 4-3 liberal majortiy and explains her platform. All that and more on “The Saturday Show with Jonathan Capehart.”
