On this episode of CAFE Insider podcast, “Mueller Time, At Last," Preet and Anne focus on:

• Former Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s highly anticipated testimony on Wednesday before the House Judiciary and Intelligence committees.
• Newly unsealed documents in SDNY’s now-concluded hush money investigation into Michael Cohen that potentially implicate the President and his former aide Hope Hicks in violating the law

They also address developments in the Jeffrey Epstein case, and Trump’s expected nomination of Eugene Scalia, son of the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, to replace Alex Acosta as Secretary of Labor.
