Summary
People in Hawaii were greeted with a damning message: take cover, a missile is headed your way. The mishap is fitting in a time where nothing quite seems to make sense, including the Republican-led White House taking on the Wall Street Journal over a potential misquote. Bill Press is joined by guests Jon Allen (NBC News), Alexi McCammond (Axios), and Eliza Collins (USA Today) to discuss the latest headlines including DACA, government shut down, and 2018 elections.
