  • Minnesota Not Nice
    2025/12/07
    On today's Politics Nation, Rev. Al Sharpton discusses President Trump's recent targeting of Minnesota's Somali community. Residents say Minneapolis neighborhoods are unusually quiet as some fear federal crackdowns after Trump called the Somali population 'garbage' following a deadly shooting in Washington D-C, allegedly by an Afghan immigrant with no Somali ties. The White House appears uninterested in facts, focusing instead on justifying an attack on Americans' civil liberties.

  • A Holiday Season On Edge
    2025/12/01
    On today's episode of Politics Nation, host Reverend Al Sharpton discusses the lack of a seasonal pause from President Trump and his administration as they push an extreme agenda at home and abroad. The administration is making new claims about the deadly attack on National Guardsmen in the capital just before the holiday and is advocating for strict immigration restrictions targeting individuals from “third-world countries.” Additionally, the President's escalating tensions with Venezuela are raising concerns among some Republican lawmakers, who have questions for Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth regarding his role in the killings of crew members involved in alleged drug smuggling in the Caribbean. Political divisions are nearing a breaking point during a season that should focus on goodwill.

  • Snap Decisions
    2025/11/02
    Tonight, on 'Politics Nation', host Reverend Al Sharpton highlights that only three days remain until a major off-year election night, where voters face crucial choices and leaders provide insights. A federal judge has mandated the Trump administration to continue essential nutritional aid for 42 million low-income Americans amid the ongoing government shutdown, now in its 31st day. It’s unclear whether President Trump will comply, as he references conflicting court decisions. He seems reluctant to negotiate with Democrats to reopen the government and is instead urging Senate Republicans to abolish the filibuster, while encouraging House members to take a prolonged recess. Remember, early voting is currently underway nationwide. To listen to the shows in this feed and other MS podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts.
