Weekend Edition: Lake Ontario "Lake America," 63rd Anniversary of the March on Washington, Supreme Court and Mail-In Voting
About this episode
In this weekend's episode, three segments from this past week's Washington Journal.
First: The U.S. and Canada are in the throes of an all-out trade war that started with an announcement of new tariffs at the beginning of week – and ended with the President renaming Lake Ontario "Lake America." We speak with White House trade adviser Peter Navarro to hear what the tiff is all about.
Then: This Friday marks the 63rd anniversary of the March on Washington.
We spoke with the Reverend Al Sharpton about THIS YEAR's March that he's leading – and why voting rights is the focus.
And speaking of voting – the Supreme Court issued an emergency opinion this week – siding with President Trump on mail-in voting restrictions. We spoke with election law expert Michael Morley from Florida State University – about what it all means.
