Episode description

Congressman Jamie Raskin, one of the most capable, incisive, and brilliant members of Congress serving today, joins the show. We wanted to know, now that Kevin McCarthy has been removed as Speaker of the House, what was the real reason Democrats didn't try to save him (1:29)?

What happened at that infamous impeachment inquiry hearing last week when Raskin tore apart the Republican argument and laid bare the real agenda behind what was happening (12:36)? What did he see on the Jan 6 committee that hasn't shown up in the indictments of Trump and his co-conspirators (20:11)?
