Columbus City Attorney Zach Klein joins us for a wide-ranging conversation about his journey from southeastern Ohio to city leadership, the challenges of public service and the future of Columbus. We discuss his background, his shift from Republican to Democrat, his battles with state and federal governments and lawsuits against the Trump administration. Later we get into his office's work on nuisance property laws, as well as Marcy's Law and police use of the law. We also dig into policing protests, the influence of social media and what's next for his political future.
