Summary

In an excerpt from a new episode of CAFE Insider, Preet Bharara and Joyce Vance discuss Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s decision to revoke a plea deal that would have allowed Khalid Shaikh Mohammad, the man accused of plotting al-Qaeda's 9/11 attack, to avoid the death penalty.  In the full podcast, exclusively for members of CAFE Insider, Preet and Joyce are joined by Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter Carol Leonnig, who, along with her team at the Washington Post, recently uncovered a secret criminal investigation into whether former President Donald Trump received money from the Egyptian government in violation of campaign finance laws. Leonnig, author of the book, Zero Fail: The Rise and Fall of the Secret Service, also speaks about the Secret Service failures that led to the Trump assassination attempt.  To become a member of CAFE Insider head to cafe.com/insider.
