About this episode
Last year, we did an episode with Barton Gellman, who talked about the war games he was running with high-level military leaders and government officials to prepare for a second Trump term.
A bunch of you have been asking us to have Barton back, to find out what he’s doing, now that the second Trump term is here. So we called him up.
Barton works at the Brennan Center for Justice.
“Question Everything” is a production of KCRW and Placement Theory.
