Summary

Bryan and Amanda are back with Asha Rangappa, CNN national security analyst and a former FBI agent, to break down just how alarming Bill Barr’s hearing was for people who know how the Justice Department is actually supposed to work. She tells us what concerns her most about the hearing, whether Democrats questioned the AG effectively, and dives into Trump’s pro-Putin reaction to Russia’s bounty on American soldiers. She also takes us back to the months before 2016 to show why Democrats shouldn’t wait to take action against Bill Barr just because Biden is polling well.
