Trump makes fools of Republicans who decried violent rhetoric with call for deaths of legislators - Briefing w/Jen Psaki



Donald Trump called for the deaths of Democratic members of Congress who are military and intelligence service veterans who participated in a video reminded members of the military that they should not follow illegal orders, prompting hundreds of death threats to those legislators and making additional security for their protection necessary.

Despite vociferous concern about violent political rhetoric in the wake of Charlie Kirk's assassination, Republican condemnation of Trump has been light. Rep. Chris Deluzio (D-PA) and Rep. Maggie Goodlander (D-NH) talk with Jen Psaki about preserving legal and moral clarity in the face of Trump's lawlessness and threats. - Aired on 11/20/2025.

think he can do anything. He IS NOT the most powerful man in the world. He may hold a very powerful political position, but as we have seen, he is subservient to Putin, how can that be "the most"?
