Kara and Rachel talk about Rachel’s newest podcast, "Rachel Maddow Presents: Burn Order," which unravels how the blatantly unconstitutional incarceration of more than 100,000 Japanese American and Japanese immigrants during WWII was planned and carried out.
They also explore the parallels to President Trump's mass-deportation policies, discuss the recent boat strikes on alleged drug traffickers, the escalating drama around the competing bids for Warner Bros. Discovery (and what it signals for the future of the news business) and MSNBC's evolution into MS NOW.
This wide-ranging conversation connects the past to the present—and asks what we can learn before history repeats itself.
00:00 Introduction
01:40 Finding the best bacon, egg, and cheese
03:58 How Rachel Maddow chooses stories and avoids the Trump attention machine
07:08 Rachel Maddow’s new podcast Burn Order on WWII Japanese incarceration
