Today on Velshi, breaking this morning, another bus of migrants is dropped off outside the

Vice President's residence in Washington, D.C.

It's the latest move in the Republican Party's twisted game of life using human beings as

political ps.

Plus, brand new reporting on the Justice Department's pursuit of the former twice-impeached

insurrectionist president.

What prosecutors have, what they're looking for, and what's behind their late-night appeal

just hours ago, an unprecedented order from a Trump-appointed judge that will slow down

the criminal investigation

of the former president. And the first big Republican proposal on abortion since Roe was overturned

has landed with a thud in the Senate. We'll skip the pretended shock from some Republican

quarters and talk to someone who was not only expecting a national abortion ban, but whose job it will be to fight it.

Later, the Velshi Band Book Club is back in session this morning.

Today, we remember the late Barbara Arenreich and her seminal work, Nicolland-Dimed,

about the trap of working poverty in America.

I'll be joined by two incredible writers who knew Aaron Reich

and who also knew

what it is to work too hard for too little money in this country. Joining us later in the show,

Sarah Smarsh, a New York Times bestselling author who's descended from generations of Kansas

wheat farmers and on one side and teen mothers on the other. And Stephanie Land, the author

of the memoir turned Emmy-nominated series,

Maid. Velshi, starts now. And good morning to you. It's Saturday, September, the 17th. I'm Ali Velshi.
