Episode Introducing Runaway Country: Justice Has Left the Building
Alex digs into the destruction of due process and rule of law under the Trump administration.

Then, Alex speaks to Andrew Weissmann, former lead prosecutor in Robert Mueller’s Special Counsel’s Office, about whether our system is forever changed, and what it’s like to be in President Trump’s crosshairs.
