Labor journalist Kim Kelly joins us to talk about the plans by the Trump administration, more specifically Elon Musk’s DOGE, for the Department of Labor. As DOGE and the Department of Labor leaders met this week, what should we expect next? And what should we make of Trump’s purportedly pro-labor Secretary of Labor nominee, Lori Chavez-DeRemer? WIth her confirmation hearing on February 12, will Republicans (and even Democrats) confirm her?
