Tune in for this week’s therapy session with Norm Ornstein and David Rothkopf.

And what does her supposed processor Todd Blanche have in store for our justice system? Norm Ornstein and David Rothkopf are back to discuss the state of the DOJ, Bondi’s firing, and more.

  • A Fiasco Wrapped In A Disaster Inside a Catastrophe

Tune in as Norm Ornstein and David Rothkopf reflect on our current state of global affairs and Trump’s domestic and foreign policy agenda.
