Trump's Government Shutdown DISASTER w/ Eugene Daniels - Fast Politics w/ Molly Jong-Fast



MS NOW's Eugene Daniels joins host Molly Jong-Fast to discuss the looming Department of Homeland Security shutdown, internal tensions within both parties, and the deepening disconnect between Democratic leadership and their increasingly mobilized base. Daniels offers insightful analysis of political stalemates, unpacks the culture-driven strategies of the modern Republican Party under Trump, and highlights the challenges facing Democratic leaders like Hakeem Jeffries in a polarized and high-stakes political climate.

The conversation also dives into Daniels’ new podcast with Symone Sanders-Townsend, "MS NOW Presents: Clock It," which explores the critical intersection of politics and culture, offering context for how Trump continues to shape both to maintain power. Always thoughtful and impassioned, Daniels emphasizes the importance of public pressure, cultural influence, and strategic clarity as the 2024 election approaches. - 02/13/2026.
