First, after the S&P 500 briefly fell into bear market territory last week, Dana presses White House Director of the National Economic Council Brian Deese on whether the United States is headed towards a recession. Then, Dana and Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson discuss Arkansas' trigger law that would come into effect if Roe v. Wade is overturned banning abortion from the moment of fertilization, with no exception for rape or incest. After, Democratic candidate for Pennsylvania governor Josh Shapiro joins to discuss his plan to address rising prices in the state, his stance on abortion restrictions, and his opponent's attempts to throw out Pennsylvania's 2020 election results. 

Plus, this week's panel discusses the Republican party’s divide ahead of the upcoming primary election in Georgia, as well as a new poll that shows 78% of Americans say the United States is headed in the wrong direction.

On today’s panel: Former Speechwriter for President Biden Jeff Nussbaum, CNN Political Commentator Scott Jennings, CNN Political Commentator Bakari Sellers, CNN Political Commentator Alyssa Farah Griffin.
