Trump Ignores 60-Day Iran Deadline & King Charles Urges Congress to Do Its Job Sherrilyn Ifill

As America’s situationship with Iran hits the 60-day War Powers Act deadline, Trump brazenly ignores Congress's authority while spouting nonsense about America's depleted weapons inventory, and Jon Stewart marvels at our "genius" president's faulty math and cognitive skills. Plus, a visit from a real monarch, King Charles, shines a light on the lack of checks and balances from America's absent Congress. Civil rights lawyer and founding director of Howard Law School's 14th Amendment Center for Law & Democracy, Sherrilyn Ifill, sits down with Jon to discuss the Supreme Court’s weakening of the Voting Rights Act. They talk about how the reinstatement for purposeful discrimination overturned the court’s own precedent, how the Voting Rights Act protects the voting strength of minorities and their candidates of choice, and the dangerous potential for Trump and Republicans to redistrict using this precedent in an effort to turn seats in the House. -- For up to 65% off your order, head to and use code DAILY.
