The Katie Phang Show: July 20, 2024
On this week’s episode of ‘The Katie Phang Show’: Despite calls for unity after his assassination attempt, Fmr. President Donald Trump chose far-right Sen. JD Vance to be his running mate and ended the convention with a rambling, divisive speech. California Congressman Robert Garcia reacts to the Republican Party’s inability to tamp down their alienating rhetoric. Meanwhile, President Biden is reportedly making major efforts to reform the Supreme Court including potential term limits and an enforceable ethics code. Slate’s Dahlia Lithwick joins to break down how the reforms would impact the High Court. Plus, a “Katie’s Sidebar” into Judge Aileen Cannon’s reckless interpretation of the law that gave way to her dismissing Trump’s classified documents case this week. All that and more on the ‘The Katie Phang Show.'
