Jake also presses Christie on whether he would pledge to support Trump if he is the Republican nominee for president in 2024. After, Rep. Mike Turner discusses Secretary Anthony Blinken’s trip to China as well as Trump’s alleged mishandling of classified documents. Later, Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass tells Jake about the city’s efforts to move people affected by homelessness into homes. And, Jake asks former Defense Secretary Mark Esper whether Trump’s handling of classified documents put national security at risk. Lastly, in honor of Father’s Day, Jake shares a moving personal example of a father standing up for his son.
