Cable News Meltdown Over Ronna McDaniel, Gina McCarthy Talks Energy Independence

Press Advance producer Christine Baratta joins Johanna Maska to discuss the rollout of former RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel as an NBC contributor amid an outcry from network staffers questioning her credibility and past support for Donald Trump. Plus, we talk with Gina McCarthy, who served as the first White House National Climate Advisor and was instrumental in shaping the administration's landmark climate law—The Inflation Reduction Act— the country's most significant legislation designed to achieve energy independence and reduce pollution for America's communities. Johanna asks McCarthy about how the Inflation Reduction Act could tackle the costs of the clean transition.
