Ep. 33: Senate Hearing on Trump’s Pick for Justice Department Could Preview Supreme Court Battle

The Week Ahead

Even before President-elect Donald Trump is sworn in, the Senate will move forward with a hearing on Trump’s nomination of Alabama Republican Sen.

Sessions’ hearing could also set the tone for Trump’s upcoming Supreme Court nomination.
