August 8, 2026; 5pm: On today’s episode of Politics Nation, host Reverend Al Sharpton examines Senate Republicans voting in near-lockstep overnight to confirm Todd Blanche as U.S. Attorney General, fully elevating the president’s former personal lawyer to lead the Justice Department and raising new concerns about the politicization of the nation’s justice system — just months before the next election. Ahead of that election, the president tells Americans they are experiencing the greatest economy they have ever had. But voters reject that message, as a dismal July jobs report and skyrocketing prices at the grocery store and gas pump tell a very different story. Rather than confront that economic reality — including by ending his war with Iran — the president once again targets Black women who challenge his economic narrative. Meanwhile, Democrats in Michigan come together in a show of solidarity following an intense Senate primary that stress-tests the party’s vision for its future. With the smoke clearing in Michigan, Sharpton examines whether Democrats can unite nationally to stop Trump in his tracks.All that and more on Politics Nation.
