About this episode
This is the first official episode of our ongoing series breaking down the U.S. Constitution.
This month, Roman and Elizabeth discuss the Preamble, alongside Nikole Hannah-Jones.
Elizabeth also explains that while the United States generally does not allow a standing army to be used against civilians, Trump has been exploiting an exception to keep troops in Los Angeles to protect ICE agents — with terrifying implications.
