Episode description

Roger Stone and former Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich discuss what they describe as the systemic weaponization of the American legal system against political outsiders. Blagojevich, who portrays himself as a traditional Democrat, recounts his own imprisonment as the starting point for a broader pattern of "lawfare" that he and Stone believe was later used to target Donald Trump. Central to their argument is the allegation that Barack Obama and various deep-state actors engaged in a cynical and hypocritical abuse of power by fabricating the Russian collusion narrative while claiming to protect institutional norms.
