Summary
Booker chats with us about reformative justice (and whether he’s a prison abolitionist), fundraising with Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump for his Senate campaign in 2013, and whether he ever feels like the Anne Hathaway of politics. Come for the political discussion, stay to find out if he’s actually Mindy Kaling’s baby daddy.
