    On this week's episode of 'The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart': Battling the Bromance. President Trump sings the praises of First Buddy Elon Musk in a new interview but Democrats at every level are fighting back, most effectively in the courts. I'll ask Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford about his recent legal victory and the stunning reaction from Vice President JD Vance. Then, I'll ask Rep. Becca Balint of the Budget Committee just how far Democrats are willing to go to stop the Trump-Musk agenda -- even if it means a government shutdown. Protest Vought: Russell Vought, Trump's Budget Director and key architect of Project 2025, is also now the acting head of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and already taking steps to undermine it. Rep. Maxine Waters, ranking member of the House Financial Services Committee, is not happy about any of this and she will tell us why. And, Oh Canada! Prime Minister Justin Trudeau doesn't think Trump's joking about making Canada the 51st state. Why this and Trump's pronouncements on Gaza, Greenland, the Panama Canal and more are detrimental to the global order America helped create, with the Atlantic's Tom Nichols. All that and more on “The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart.”
