President Trump says he wants to pull the plug on voting by mail. In the Oval Office yesterday, he called mail-in ballots “corrupt.” It might sound like it came out of nowhere, but this idea’s been bubbling for a while.

Host Yasmin Vossoughian talks with our senior politics reporter, Matt Dixon, who breaks down what this could mean for the 2026 midterms.And is the government really controlling the weather? Some Republican lawmakers seem to think so, and they’re introducing a bill to ban so-called “weather modification.” NBC News Political Reporter Allan Smith is with us to explain.
