Summary

In the latest installment of NBC News' Deciders Focus Group series made in collaboration with Engagious, Syracuse University and Sago, young voters in Wisconsin discuss how the Israel-Hamas war and abortion will impact their votes in November.

Former President Donald Trump’s hush money trial continues as Stormy Daniels’ former attorney Keith Davidson takes the stand. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
