The Briefing with Jen Psaki 2026 сезон 82 серия — Episode 82

While it is not unusual for Donald Trump to appoint completely unqualified people to important jobs in his administration, his choice of Bill Pulte, a Mar-a-Lago suck-up who Trump had already gifted the position of director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, to be the new Director of National Intelligence is too far for many Republicans who are already dealing with the burden of association with Trump's unpopularity. Senator Adam Schiff, a former member of the House Intelligence Committee, discusses with Jen Psaki.

Jen Psaki talks with Iowa State Rep. Josh Turek, now the Democratic candidate for Senate, about how Donald Trump's policies, from tariffs to the war with Iran have made the challenges Iowans deal with, particularly Iowa's farmers, more difficult, and how he addresses that in his campaign.

Scott MacFarlane, chief Washington correspondent for MeidasTouch, talks with Jen Psaki about the calamity taking place at CBS News as Trump loyalists eject journalists who resist their editorial influence.
