Moore also says that redistricting in his state is possible if Donald Trump persists in trying to rig the 2026 election with red state gerrymandering.Plus, Jen Psaki answers White House press briefing questions, minus the Trump White House spin, and the best outcome to hope for from Trump's Friday meeting with Vladimir Putin is that Trump doesn't do too much damage.Follow us on Bluesky at @briefingwithpsaki.bsky.social...and on Threads at @thebriefingwithpsaki Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
