In the new episode of PSAKI BOMBS! Jen Psaki shows that while Enes Kanter Freedom tries to manufacture some culture war outrage with his WNBA stunt, Abdul El-Sayed exposed the whole game with a fierce clapback in a Fox News appearance. But it's Ontario Premier Doug Ford wins the week in clapbacks. And Jen shares some hard-earned wisdom on how to deal with Team Trump (hint: Jared Kushner is not your guy!). Mayor Mamdani provides another lesson in the power of an individual citizen's voice, and Dolly Parton was still making news even on the day she died, playing a key role in a lawsuit about restrictions on drag performances.

Jen Psaki talks with David Plouffe, Barack Obama's 2008 campaign manager, about the balance of the congressional elections just a few months away from midterm elections, and the challenge Republicans face carrying the burden of Donald Trump's unpopularity when Trump's only campaign idea is to promote himself.
Taken separately, Donald Trump's bad policies are problematic enough, his petulant tariffs, his foolhardy trade wars, his inexplicable war in Iran, his assault on immigrants, etc. But taken together they are a crippling burden hurting both supply and demand as well as resources and materials for operating farms and businesses. Jen Psaki discusses with Senator Amy Klobuchar, Democratic candidate for governor of Minnesota.
