The Weekend July 20 8a: A Brewing Storm
Podcast: The WeekendPublished On: Sun Jul 20 2025
Description: All eyes are on Texas as the state’s legislature is set to convene for a special session that will likely be dominated by one agenda item: President Trump’s demand to redraw the state’s congressional maps. Former Texas congressman Colin Allred joins The Weekend to discuss the implications this could have on the midterms. And, as extreme flooding hits many parts of the nation, the Trump administration shut down a federal website that presented congressionally mandated reports and research on climate change. Representative Eric Sorensen, the only meteorologist in the U.S. Congress, joins The Weekend to explain how these budget cuts could make it more difficult to predict storms. Plus, Emmy-winning actor Jim Parsons joins The Weekend to discuss “Reclaim The Flag,” a new documentary which unpacks the LGBTQ+ community's relationship with the American flag and examines how it can be reclaimed as a symbol of unity for all Americans.
