Episode description

Ben Wittes, Editor-in-Chief of Lawfare, discusses what Trump can actually do and where the protections are for those he's threatened to criminally prosecute—Kamala is probably safe, but Jack Smith could be quite inconvenienced. Plus, Kristi Noem for DHS, and to California ballot counters: your torpor is not a virtue.

Also, today The Atlantic published Mike's piece about the "HR-ification" of the Democratic party.

Produced by Joel Patterson and Corey Wara
