malik abdul. joanna coles and solomon jones. it's the weekend. join the conversation at the table for five. good morning. i'm abby phillip in new york. in donald trump's second week on the job, america has once again been reminded of how he copes with the crisis. he suddenly becomes a pundit. it wasn't four hours after the nation's deadliest plane crash in nearly a quarter century, when the president started ruminating about blame, questioning the competence of the tower and military pilots. then, 14 hours after the crash, he took to the white house podium with a different and clearer message about who he thinks is at fault. >> i put safety first. obama, biden and the democrats put policy first. the faa's diversity push includes focus on hiring people with severe intellectual and psychiatric disabilities. that is amazing. a group within the faa. another story determined that the workforce was too white, that they had concerted efforts to get the administration to change that and to change it immediately. this was in the obama administration, but

john malik abdul, alyssa farah, griffin and jay michaelson. it's the weekend. join the conversation at a table for five. good morning to you. i'm abby phillip in new york. let's get right to what america is talking about. the demolition derby. in just three weeks, the federal government is being bulldozed by president trump and his project foreman, elon musk. we shouldn't be surprised, though. it is what trump promised to do. but what is stunning is the way in which it's being done. first, they're offering buyouts and threatening jobs with the stroke of an email and no succession plan, by the way. second, the world's richest man is essentially invading agencies with a mysterious team of young tech guys who he doesn't want you to know about, and they're accessing payment systems that house sensitive data, the sensitive data of americans. third, the trump administration is completely gutting agencies like usaid, which republicans have historically praised. and if there is any question who the ringleader is, this time magazine leaves nothing to chance. elon musk i

malik abdul and congressman ro khanna. americans with different perspectives aren't talking to each other, but here they do. good evening. i'm abby phillip in new york. let's get right to what america is talking about. the acceptance of racism. tonight, a doge staffer who resigned after racist posts surfaced about him is getting his job back. elon musk wanted to crowdsource the decision, and one of the respondents leaping to the employee's defense was the vice president of the united states, jd vance. among other things, said in a social media post that this shouldn't ruin a kid's life. first of all, that kid is 25 years old. secondly, he recently made those posts as recently as december and third. he is now tasked with accessing sensitive information about americans without oversight. even the president echoed vance's sentiment. >> one of the doge engineers was fired for some inappropriate posts. the vice president says bring him back. what do you say? >> well, i don't know about the particular thing, but if the vice pres

live at the table solomon jones, madison, gesiotto, adrian elrod, malik abdul and cari champion. americans with different perspectives aren't talking to each other, but here they do. good evening. i'm abby phillip in new york. let's get right to what america is talking about. the doge is in the details tonight. the country is starting to get clued in about what elon musk and his digital army are exactly up to. but here's what we are learning tonight. the wall street journal is reporting that a 25 year old doge staffer resigned today over links to social media posts advocating racism and eugenics. that former staffer was one of the people at the center of a very important legal dispute over accessing a sensitive treasury department payment system, and a source tells cnn that in emails four days after trump's inauguration, musk's associates tried to have the then acting secretary of the treasury stop all usaid payments. that's the first known indication that doge tried to use the treasury's tools to advance trump's agenda. now, we've also learned that trump's energy secretary let a

a somali career criminal, abdul rahman mohammed, then age 39, was awarded nearly 80 grand after the home admitted his illegal detention. he'd been granted asylum status in the uk, but after committing a string of crimes, he was held at a detention centre for 445 days in three separate periods as officials tried desperately to deport him. but after using human rights legislation to successfully fight his deportation, he then won a massive payout on the basis that he was locked up for too long while the process dragged on. it's insane, isn't it? but i think this problem goes deeper. i think we have to start looking at the lawyers and the judges, and let's start at the very top, shall we? what kind of cases did our prime minister, keir starmer take on? well, in 2003, he represented some asylum seekers and one now the court's decision in that specific case mandated that the government provide accommodation and financial aid to asylum seekers at risk of poverty, regardless of how long after they arrived in the uk that they actually claimed to be asylum seekers. well, our now attorney general,
