President Trump arrived back stateside from his very successful trip to the Middle East. The neocons are revolting, demanding President Trump make no deals with Qatar, UAE, Saudi Arabia and Iran. It was Barack Obama who sent Iran $1.7 billion in cash in 2016 as part of a settlement over a decades-old arms deal dispute. This included an initial $400 million payment on January 17, 2016, followed by $1.3 billion in interest payments. The cash, in euros, Swiss francs, and other currencies, was delivered via cargo planes because U.S. sanctions prevented banking transfers. Donald Trump didn't fork over a single dollar, in fact, he secured over $2 trillion dollars in investments to America. So why are the neocons revolting against him and didn't against Obama?

The Golden Age has begun! President Trump's has kept to his campaign promises of working for the American people and not the corporations and globalists. Today's executive order marks something that has never been done before, taking on the largest lobby group in this country — with no remorse or apologies! We also have a trade deal with China as the stock markets surged on reaction to it all! All this while Bill Gates says because of DOGE cuts, 2-million people will die, its quite the opposite!

Most of the new SCOTUS justices that were put on the court as 'conservatives' have been total disappointments. They seem to rule more in favor of illegals and gangs than they do for Americans.

On this week's episode of 'The Saturday Show with Jonathan Capehart': Pushing legal limits. From arresting a judge, to defying court orders to return a man mistakenly deported, to rounding up foreign students, the Trump administration's immigration policy is undermining the rule of law and endangering the right to due process for everyone. Rep. Robert Garcia and Rep. Ayanna Pressley joined me to talk about their visits with those caught in the chaos. Hitting Home. As Americans sour on the President's chaotic economic policies, top prosecutors from 12 states are suing him over his tariffs. I asked Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford why they call the tariffs an illegal tax hike. And, the Project 2025 Presidency. Donald Trump has tried to distance himself from the right-wing blueprint. But David Graham of The Atlantic explains how the first 100 days of the Trump Presidency are right out of this playbook, and why there are still a few big plays up his sleeve. All that and more on “The Saturday Show with Jonathan Capehart.”

On this week's episode of 'The Saturday Show with Jonathan Capehart': The Opposition. From the court of public opinion to the judiciary itself, the pushback against President Trump's war on the rule of law is growing, including at the Supreme Court, which early this morning, blocked the Trump Administration from carrying out more deportations under the Alien Enemies Act, for now. Lee Gelernt, the ACLU's lead counsel in the case, joins me to discuss this consequential case and the response we just got from the administration. Rising Up. As anti-Trump demonstrators take to the streets across the country again, I'll ask Rep. Madeleine Dean why her packed town hall this week moved her to tears. And Never Surrender. Harvard alum and Washington Post columnist, David Ignatius, tells us how the elite university sent an important message, not just to other academic institutions, but to the entire country, when it stood up to Trump.

On this week's episode of 'The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart': Tariff Twist. The Trump administration announces new exemptions to reciprocal tariffs, including smartphones, computers and other consumer electronics, bringing U.S. tech companies back from the edge of a cliff, for now. But tariff policies still threaten other American businesses, not to mention faith in the U.S. economy. Rep. Debbie Dingell of Michigan joins me to talk about that, and the Republican spending plan that threatens the social safety net. Retribution Orders. Another stunning legal week, with the President using executive authority to target private citizens, while Supreme Court rulings leave room for the White House to defy the judicial branch. What it all means for the rule of law. And we warned y'all. While thousands of shocked Americans take to the streets to protest Trump's chaotic and harmful agenda, author Christina Greer is here to explain why Black Americans are not surprised. All that and more on “The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart.”

Thousands take to the streets across the country to protest the extreme Trump Agenda, from market-busting tariffs to devastating cuts to federal agencies and more. I'll ask former Biden advisor Mitch Landrieu if this is a defining moment for Democratic resistance. A Rough Republican week. The markets tanked. Their advantage in ruby red congressional districts was cut in half. And a Wisconsin supreme court seat didn't go their way. Political analyst Charlie Sykes and former Biden White House official Andrew Bates weigh in on whether this week was a defining moment for the GOP. Fear Factor. The Trump administration is fighting a judge's order to bring back a man mistakenly detained and sent to that notorious prison in El Salvador. Maria Hinojosa joins me to discuss how these wrongful removals are sparking fear in the immigrant community. And, on the run. Michigan state Sen. Mallory McMorrow is here to talk about her bid for a U.S. Senate seat and why she says it's time for a new generation of Democratic leadership. All that and more on “The Saturday Show with Jonathan Capehart.”

An unelected Marxist Judge today said that 'Nazis got better treatment' than the Venezuelan gang members got under the Alien Enemies Act deportations.

It wasn't but and hour after the flights departed that an Obama Appointed Judge demanded the planes be turned around and we bring the gang members back to America. Needless to say, the planes continued on to their destination. Trump has said he is revoking the pardons from the members of the J6 select committee, because Joe Biden's autopen signature is null and void. Will these people finally be held accountable?

On this week's episode of 'The Saturday Show with Jonathan Capehart': Where's the fire? The growing calls for stronger opposition to President Trump's extreme agenda, after Senate Democrats help pass the Republicans' continuing resolution. I'll discuss the real cost of capitulating to Republicans to keep the government open with Andrew Desiderio, of Punchbowl News, former Deputy Chief of Staff to Nancy Pelosi, Drew Hamill, and economic columnist Heather Long of the Washington Post.

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.

WaPo is reporting that there are more migrant deaths at southern border than U.S. and Mexico have reported. Why is the U.S. and Mexican government lying about something like that? The data shows that at least 1,107 people drowned trying to cross the Rio Grande River in the seven years from 2017 to 2023. The deaths peaked in 2022 as the number of people trying to enter the United States soared. A rising number of women were among the dead. In 2023, more than 1 in 10 drownings involved a child. Our U.S. government and businesses are to thank for this influx. U.S. Businesses and companies have abused cheap, illegal labor for far too long, and it's got to end.

In May of 2023, Marine Veteran Daniel Penny was on a packed NYC Subway car on his way home from school. An unruly homeless man on drugs boarded the train saying that he was not afraid of going to prison and was ‘ready to die', threatening people. When Penny looked around and saw women and children, he took the man down to the ground and waited for police to arrive — the perpetrator died. Penny was brought in and charged as a result of D.A Alvin Bragg making it political — this week he was found innocent.
