Is it Time to Have a Convicted Felon in the White House?

On this week's episode, host Johanna Maska breaks down the fallout from Donald Trump's guilty verdict with a political panel featuring Desiree Barnes, who worked in President Obama’s Press Office, Danielle Cendejas, a Partner for the Strategy Group and former Obama campaign organizer, and Brittany Martinez, a former aide to House Speaker Kevin McCarthy. They discuss what it means for America to potentially have a convicted felon reelected to the White House. They also discuss other political news this week — members of Congress treating Dr. Anthony Fauci like a criminal at a hearing on the pandemic, and President Biden’s crackdown on migrants on the southern border with a new executive order. Plus, what did White House staffers think about the controversy over President Obama's tan suit compared to current presidential scandals.
