The Weekend S2026E04 - Episode 4

7am: Several cities across the United States saw major protests following the killing of Minnesota mom Renee Good. The Trump administration continues to double down on its argument that the ICE officer acted in self-defense. The Department of Homeland Security released a 3-minute video showing the moments leading up to the incident to back their claim. Minnesota officials reject that narrative. MS NOW Political Analyst Eugene Robinson and Former FBI Special Agent Christopher O'Leary join "The Weekend" to discuss.

8am: The Palisades and Eaton fires claimed 31 lives, destroyed more than 16,000 structures and obliterated almost everything across nearly 80 square miles. Senior Political and National Reporter Jacob Soboroff covered the costliest wildfire event in American history last year as his own childhood home in the Los Angeles' Pacific Palisades neighborhood was destroyed. His new book "FIRESTORM: The Great Los Angeles Fires and America's New Age of Disaster" offers a deeply reported account of the catastrophe. Soboroff joins The Weekend to discuss his book and aftermath of those fires.

9am: Trump has taken his presidency to new extremes while testing the limits of executive power, forcing some of the top Republicans to stand up to the president. Republican California Congressman Kevin Kiley, who also serves on the Judiciary committee, joins "The Weekend" to discuss his party's latest moves on the War Powers Act and health care subsidies.
