The Saturday Show With Jonathan Capehart: February 22, 2025

On this week's episode of 'The Saturday Show with Jonathan Capehart': Pentagon Purge. In a late night social media post, President Trump fired the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the nation's highest ranking military officer, and other high-ranking officials, possibly making way for people more loyal to Trump than the Constitution. Chris Meagher, former Biden Defense Department official, will explain why this is alarming. New Musk Ultimatum. Hours after President Trump called on him to "get more aggressive" today, First Buddy Elon Musk issued a new directive to the federal workforce: Tell me what you did last week or you're fired. Two federal employees caught up in all this chaos join the show with their stories. And scare tactic. The top prosecutor for Washington, D.C., wants an explanation from Rep. Robert Garcia of his comments on Trump and Musk by next week. Rep. Garcia joins me to tell me how he'll respond. All that and more on “The Saturday Show with Jonathan Capehart.”
