Episode 12

Following the $355 million judgment against Donald Trump this week, Jen Psaki explains how it's just the latest chapter in the former president's life story of fraud. Next, Jen reflects on Georgia District Attorney Fani Willis's testimony this week regarding her relationship with a lead prosecutor on her team and explains why it doesn't impact the case against Trump and his co-defendants. Journalist Michael Isikoff, who interviewed Willis several times for his new book, joins Jen to give greater context on the allegations against Willis. Jen explores MAGA's continued embrace of Vladimir Putin after his main political rival was found dead in a Russian penal colony. John Bolton joins to explain why Putin, and other foreign leaders, see Trump an "easy mark." Finally, Jen sits down with Senator Laphonza Butler to discuss her experience serving in the Senate and what's next after her time in Congress.
