单集简介 ...

A swath of President Donald Trump’s handpicked candidates won their primary elections Tuesday night – and one of Trump's biggest opponents in Congress, Kentucky Republican Representative Thomas Massie, lost. It was the continuation of Trump’s weeks-long revenge tour against Republicans he views as disloyal. So, for more about what we learned from Tuesday’s primaries, we spoke with Alex Wagner. She’s the host of Crooked Media’s Runaway Country. And in headlines, President Donald Trump gives a commencement speech to the U.S. Coast Guard Academy’s graduates, the so-called Board of Peace needs money, and the Department of Justice announces charges against former Cuban President Raúl Castro as the Trump administration escalates pressure on the island.

  • Is this true?

  • Also, yes.

  • On today's show, the Department of Justice announces charges against former Cuban President Raul Castro.

  • And President Donald Trump's so-called Board of Peace is apparently having a hard time with funding.

  • I wonder why.

  • But let's start with Tuesday's very MAGA primaries.

  • It was a good evening to beat Trump,

  • as a swath of his hand-picked candidates won their primary elections,

  • and one of his biggest opponents in Congress, Kentucky Republican Representative Thomas Massey, lost.

  • Tuesday night was the culmination of Trump's revenge tour against Republicans he viewed as disloyal,

  • like the Indiana Republicans who opposed his demands to redraw congressional maps,

  • or Louisiana Republican Senator Bill Cassidy,

  • who voted to convict him for inciting the January 6th insurrection,
