  • DEFCONstitution
    The worst assault by a president on constitutional norms of any week in history, save possibly only last week. A great panel stocked with political experience & law enforcement experienceā€”Asha Rangappa, Stuart Stevens & Rick Wilsonā€”join Harry to analyze the dregs of Trumpā€™s nominees, whose prospects for confirmation cannot be counted out given Trumpā€™s vice grip on Senate Rs. They then take up other of the weeks follies, including Trumpā€™s blaming the terrible plane accident on Demsā€™ DEI policies.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

  • Mayday at DOJ (Special Episode)
    Trumpā€™s anticipated reprisal campaign against the DOJ began with a series of moves aimed at punishing professionals involved in his prosecutions while simultaneously destabilizing the department as a whole. In this special emergency episode, some of the most outstanding and experienced DOJ alumniā€”Paul Fishman, Amy Jeffress, Mimi Rocahā€”take stock of the damage inflicted and assess the departmentā€™s ability to recover after enduring the chaos of Trumpā€™s rule.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

  • Executive Orders ā€“ What Canā€™t Trump Do?
    Harry talks with federal courts and constitutional law expert Steve Vladeck about the hailstorm of Trump executive orders in the first week. Professor Vladeck explains in general terms what executive orders can accomplish and what they canā€™t. The two then zero in on the orders concerning birthright citizenship, TikTok, and immigration. They finish with some up-to-the-minute accounts of the harrowing goings-on in the Department of Justice, where new political appointees are issuing orders for DOJ litigators that are designed to implement some of the farthest reaching Trump edicts.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

  • "F**k it: Release ā€˜em All"
    No need to mince words: it was the most damaging week for the constitution, and the Foundersā€™ carefully calibrated system of checks & balances, since at least the Civil War. Trump put into place a series of executive orders & actions that if upheld will expand his power enormously and cut out the legs from most opposition. A great roundtable of Susan Glasser, David Jolly, and Bill Kristol joins Harry to assess the damage and what it portends for degradations of American law, politics, and life.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

  • ā€œFriday night was the danger zoneā€ (1-on-1 with Fired Inspector General Mark Greenblatt)
    Harry talks with Mark Greenblatt, one of the Inspectors General fired suddenly in the ā€œFriday night purgeā€ of the vast majority of Senate-confirmed IGā€™s. They discuss the origin, function, and nature of Inspectors General, who have saved taxpayers nearly $700 billion. Greenblatt talks about his own 20-year + service in the IG community, during which he rotated through several agencies and was elected by his peers to lead the IGsā€™ council. Then they zero in on Friday night and exactly what happened before moving to Greenblattā€™s current thoughts about how the IG community, Congress, and country should respond to the purge, and whether and how it is possible to safeguard the paramount goal of oversight with integrity and credibility. Itā€™s the longest and most detailed and nuance discussion with any of the fired IGs, going well beyond quick sound bites to an in-depth examination of who IGs are and what the country has lost in the purge.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
