Ted Cruz on the Panama Canal & Chris Hayes Wants Your Attention 01/28/25

The fate of the Panama Canal hangs in balance as lawmakers spar over whether the U.S. will try to take control of it. Texas Senator Ted Cruz, chairman of the Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation, offers his thoughts on the geopolitical battle ahead of the committee’s hearing. Plus, MSNBC’s Chris Hayes gives a preview of his new book, “The Sirens' Call: How Attention Became the World's Most Endangered Resource,” discussing how tech companies have monetized attention. Also, President Donald Trump says China's DeepSeek AI “should be a wake-up call” for American tech companies, Google says it will change Gulf of Mexico to ‘Gulf of America’ in the Maps app, and short seller Andrew Left is looking to dismiss his fraud case with the Justice Department.
