Trump’s recent meetings with Vladimir Putin and Volodymyr Zelenskyy have raised urgent questions about America’s role in global affairs and the future of the war in Ukraine. Atlantic staff writer and national security expert Tom Nichols joins Preet to break down what’s at stake: the fragility of Western unity, the history behind Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and whether Trump can—or even wants to—deliver peace. They also discuss Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom’s recent social media tactics and what effective opposition to Trump looks like.

Then, Preet answers your questions about Ghislaine Maxwell’s transfer to a minimum-security prison, and asks for your thoughts on Newsom’s posting.

In the bonus for Insiders, Nichols discusses the redistricting battles happening around the country.

With Putin, Trump Bends the Knee (with Tom Nichols)

In an excerpt from this week’s Insider episode, Preet Bharara and Joyce Vance discuss the agreement between the D.C. government and the Trump administration, facilitated by a federal judge, preserving the local government’s authority over its police force. The resolution stemmed from the D.C. Attorney General’s lawsuit challenging Trump’s takeover of the District’s police and his deployment of the National Guard.

In the full episode, Preet and Joyce discuss: 

– A federal appellate court’s decision allowing the Trump administration to continue to withhold billions of dollars in foreign aid; and

– The voter fraud charges brought against a group of Latino Democratic political leaders in Texas for so-called “ballot harvesting.”

Law & Order, Hold the Law

Should the law be more forgiving? Martha Minow, former dean of Harvard Law School, joins Preet for a wide-ranging conversation on what justice means today—inside and beyond the courtroom. They discuss the erosion of public trust in the legal system, the dangers of outcome-driven thinking, and why Minow believes we can’t “achieve” justice. Plus, they explore how self-interest in the Trump era has eroded our institutions, from the Supreme Court to Congress.

In the bonus for Insiders, Minow explores whether judges should be more outspoken amid the rise of political attacks, death threats, and a breakdown in civic education.

Then, Preet answers listener questions.

In an excerpt from this week’s Insider episode, Preet Bharara and Joyce Vance discuss Trump’s executive order declaring a crime emergency in DC to seize control of the city’s police and deploy the National Guard.

In the full episode, Preet and Joyce discuss: 

– A federal judge’s decision to reject the Trump administration’s request to unseal grand jury testimony from the Ghislaine Maxwell case; and

Trump's DC Police Takeover

Joe Kennedy III is trying to rebuild Democratic power from the ground up—in places where the party has long been written off. The former Massachusetts congressman joins Preet to talk about his work with the Groundwork Project, an organization supporting grassroots organizing in rural America. They discuss what it means to do politics outside the spotlight, his disagreements with his uncle RFK Jr., and how Kennedy is navigating legacy, loss, and the long game of building trust where Democrats have stopped showing up.

Then, Preet answers questions about posthumous criminal charges, whether a pardon can be revoked, and how we decide what to cover on this show. 

In the bonus for Insiders, Kennedy discusses his work in Northern Ireland, and what we can learn from the country’s violent past.

The Epstein Files (with Ben Wittes)

Media executive Barry Diller, one of the industry's most successful moguls, is behind some of America’s most popular films and TV shows, from Home Alone to The Simpsons to Roots. He’s now the chairman and senior executive of IAC and Expedia Group. Diller’s new memoir, Who Knew, is a candid account of his family, his career, and his sexuality – long a source of public speculation and debate.

In the bonus for Insiders, Diller gives his take on the current political moment, and whether AI can replace the artist’s process.
