Halfway through Emma-jority week and we’re still just getting started. We check in on a Chuck Grassley town hall where he’s confronted by angry constituents in a small town in Iowa. Then Emma is joined by Lawfare senior editor Anna Bower to break down the legal back and forth between the Trump administration and Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s legal team. Check out her coverage on Lawfare: https://www.lawfaremedia.org/contributors/abower And follow her on Twitter: @AnnaBower We also hear some good news from Anthony Squitire from NYC Alamo United’s bargaining comittee, about how they negotiated and end to their strike after management agreed to reinstate all laid-off staffers.
