Episode 49

Guest host Michael Steele examines how Justices on the Supreme Court, as well as Trump-appointed Judge Aileen Cannon, have delayed Trump's federal trials indefinitely. Michael speaks to Andrew Weissmann and Lisa Rubin about how unusual their behavior has been, given the stakes for the election and the country. In preparation for the debate between President Joe Biden and Trump, Jennifer Palmieri and Molly Jong-Fast join to talk about how each is preparing and what hot button topics they may address on stage. Later, journalist Ramin Setoodeh talks to Michael about his new book, "Apprentice in Wonderland," detailing Trump's years as a reality TV star as well as his noticeable cognitive decline since leaving office. Finally Princeton University professor Eddie Glaude talks to Michael about the recent law Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry signed, which mandated that all classrooms in the state display the ten commandments.
