As the coronavirus pandemic continues, Trump announced that
governors will reopen the states according to a plan, while also Tweeting about
liberating residents of states with Democratic governors. Justice correspondent
at The Nation, Elie Mystal, joins Michelangelo to talk about the
conflicts over reopening the country and discuss why presumptive Democratic
Party nominee Joe Biden should be playing a more prominent role in the national
conversation.
Before coming to
congress, Representative Donna Shalala
(D-FL) served as the Secretary of Health and Human Services under Bill Clinton.
She has been pushing for a science-driven plan to reopen the government, more
testing and transparency in the state and much more. She joins me on the show
today to talk about the pandemic response and where we go from here.
This sure has been
another crazy week in politics what with Trump telling governors to plan opening
up states, to Trump’s plan to cut World Health Organization funding, to Barack Obama
and Elizabeth Warren endorsing Joe Biden for president. Joining me today to help us wrap up the week
in politics is Eleanor Clift the
Washington correspondent for The Daily Beast, where she covers the White House and writes about politics and
culture.
