Some Republican candidates are using inflammatory and anti-Muslim rhetoric in their campaign ads and public statements. We look at what they're saying, and why they're saying it. Then, a free speech controversy made its way to the music world. After making pro-Palestinian statements during recent concerts, rapper Macklemore was removed from shows opening for Ed Sheeran. We explain what's going on. And, as usual on Fridays: Can't Let It Go. This episode: White House correspondent Danielle Kurtzleben, senior national political correspondent Tamara Keith, congressional correspondent Barbara Sprunt, and music reporter Isabella Gomez Sarmiento.
