It's Wednesday and Sam is hosting solo today On today's show: On CNBC Donald Trump told people to watch Harry “Emden” on CNN to see how great his approval ratings are. So, we checked out Harry Enten and it turns out Trump was lying, his approval ratings are barely above second term Nixon's. On the 80th anniversary of the US dropping the atom bomb on Hiroshima, we are joined by filmmaker Greg Mitchell to discuss his new film: The Atomic Bowl: Football at Ground Zero and Nuclear Peril Today. The documentary explores a football game that US service-members played on ground zero of Nagasaki. Associate Professor of Political Science at Stanford and publisher of On Data & Democracy , Adam Bonica joins us to discuss his piece The Mothership Vortex: An Investigation Into the Firm at the Heart of the Democratic Spam Machine In the Fun Half: ICE is staging arrests for photo ops in a disgusting display of fascism. Donald Trump rambles to Joe Kernen about how migrant farm workers are born to do that kind of work.”They don't get bad backs, if they get a bad back they die.” Andrew Cuomo goes on the Brian Lehrer Show to spread more lies as he takes credit for universal pre-k. Sen. Liz Warren excitedly supports Zohran and sees Democratic Socialism as the future of the party. But Big thinker, Bill Maher thinks that Zohran and socialism will guarantee President JD Vance.
