About this episode
The episode discusses Trump's claims of election fraud and the involvement of the DOJ in overseeing ballot counts.
Months ahead of the midterms, Trump is doubling down on his false claims of election fraud, installing a loyalist at ODNI to investigate so-called "rigged elections" with zero evidence, while his DOJ sends prosecutors to oversee ballot counts in LA county. The Weeknight hosts and guests respond.
