Jen Psaki breaks down Donald Trump's choice of partial loyalists to fill his cabinet and how their lack of experience could impact our everyday lives. Senator-Elect Elissa Slotkin joins Jen to discuss the concerns about Trump's nominees, and the issues in their background that might reveal their true character. Next, Jen is joined by Andrew Weissmann to discuss the importance of transparency in the confirmation process in light of Speaker Mike Johnson's push to suppress a House Ethics Committee report on alleged sexual misconduct by Matt Gaetz, Trump's pick to lead the DOJ. Later, Jen is joined by former CIA Director John Brennan to discuss Trump's nomination of former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard to be the Director of National Intelligence and why her questionable pro-Russian comments raise serious concerns for national security. Former HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius also joins Jen to react to Trump's nomination of anti-vaxxer Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Secretary of Health and Human Services, outlining the danger he poses to our country's health system. Finally, Jen offers democrats a reminder not to fall prey to right-wing propaganda, following the GOP's amplification of bad-faith attacks on the transgender community amid the election.

Storage Wars follows professional buyers and their teams as they scour repossessed storage units in search of hidden treasure. Part gamblers, part detectives, these auction pros have found everything from coffins to the world's most valuable comic book collection, paying as little as ten dollars for items valued in the millions.

Each episode of Storage Wars follows a group of bidders as they get a quick peek inside the units, aided only by the beam of a flashlight.
