Norm Eisen is back with us today to unpack the repercussions of Mark Meadows testimony against Donald Trump along with a slew of recent defectors from Sidney Powell to Jenna Ellis. Each one of these is a body blow to Trump's weakening defense. But Meadows could put the smoking gun in his hand. If you happen to be tuning in for the first time, Eisen is a CNN Legal Analyst and the founder and executive chair of “States United Democracy Center”, a nonpartisan organization advancing free, fair, and secure elections. His articles for the Brookings Institute and elsewhere have made the case for why Trump and his band of criminal conspiracists represented a clear and present danger to democracy. The former Obama Ethics Czar and Ambassador to the Czech Republic joins us today to get to the heart of what’s going on.

Donald Trump continues to deteriorate as he's forced to sit still and shut his mouth in court. Deprived of his 12 daily Diet Cokes, he's falling asleep in court, and once asleep, he's emitting a steady stream of foul-smelling flatulence that is sickening his legal team. It's an apt metaphor for what Trump is doing to the legal system and those around him while his lawyers beg Judge Merchan to drop the gag order. Find out what happened and so much more as Rick Wilson joins the show to read the political tea leaves.
