"Foreseeable Danger": A Dangerous Distortion and a Skeptical MAGA Judge
About this episode
Guest host Alicia Menendez breaks down how prosecutors confronted one of Donald Trump's most dangerous lies in a hearing overseen by MAGA-sympathetic Judge, Aileen Cannon. Legal experts Kristy Greenberg, Mary McCord, and Katie Phang discuss the tensions that flared in court as Jack Smith's team tried to revise the terms of Trump's release. Next, Alicia previews the first presidential debate with political analysts Tim Miller and Claire McCaskill, including Biden's recent bump in the polls, how both candidates are prepping, and the question of how President Biden should talk about Trump's conviction. Later, Alicia is joined by Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto to assess the impact of abortion restrictions on the two-year anniversary of SCOTUS striking down Roe v. Wade. Finally, Alicia is joined by investigative reporter David Fahrenthold to discuss Former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn's rebrand from disgraced member of Trump's inner circle to lucrative right-wing grifter.
