Acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire was forced to resign after he and his staff insinuated to the House Intelligence Committee that Russia was continuing to meddle in the 2020 election and favored President Trump to win. National Security Advisor Robert O’Brien and Vice President Chief-of-Staff Marc Short were on the Sunday shows to explain the situation. They came with conflicting and confusing statements.

In addition, the shows also brought more scrutiny and attention to the Bernie Sanders campaign. After the Nevada caucus win, Sanders is shaping up to be the frontrunner, which is finally bringing on a more nuanced and thorough conversation about the Sanders campaign.
