This week, TikTok died, came back to life — and now exists in a kind of limbo state. We break down what that may signal for how tech does business with the new Trump administration. Then we pump up the fun with memecoins and explore how the Trump family is cashing in. And finally, MSNBC’s Chris Hayes joins us to discuss his new book about attention.
Guest:
- Chris Hayes, Host of MSNBC's "All In With Chris Hayes" and author of “The Sirens’ Call”
