Coming up on Washington Week with The Atlantic:
Judicial Backlash and Future of the DOE
New fears of a possible constitutional crisis are on the rise this week following an apparent standoff between President Trump and a federal judge who ordered a stop to the administration's deportation flights of non-U.S. citizens. The Trump administration seems to have defied the order and now the president and his allies are calling for that judge’s impeachment.
And on Thursday, Trump signed an executive order aimed at dismantling the Department of Education, which has already been subject to massive personnel and funding cuts.
Joining editor in chief of The Atlantic and moderator, Jeffrey Goldberg, to discuss this and more:
- Eugene Daniels, Senior Washington Correspondent and Co-host of "The Weekend,” MSNBC
- David Ignatius, Columnist, The Washington Post
- Michael Scherer, Staff Writer, The Atlantic
- Nancy Youssef, National Security Correspondent, The Wall Street Journal
Major funding for “Washington Week with The Atlantic” is provided by Consumer Cellular, the Yuen Foundation, Sandra and Carl DeLay-Magnuson, Rose Hirschel and Andy Shreeves, Robert and Susan Rosenbaum, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, and PBS.
