Today on Mea Culpa, I’m joined by Nick Akerman, former federal prosecutor, Assistant Special Watergate Prosecutor, and Assistant United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York. We examine how Trump’s rhetoric and actions verge on aiding and abetting Vladimir Putin while he continues to sell false promises to his voters. We also discuss the aggressive gerrymandering and redistricting battles across the country, along with the GOP’s reckless response to gun violence. In the wake of mass firings at the CDC and subsequent resignations, combined with Trump’s attacks on the Federal Reserve and specifically Lisa Cook, we break down how Trump is weaponizing and politicizing government institutions to consolidate power.
