About this episode

President Trump chose not to act – that's the number one takeaway of the latest congressional hearing into the January 6 insurrection. It demonstrated that Donald Trump not only ignored repeated calls to stop the riot, but he also failed to reach out a single time to law enforcement and national security officials. Paul Rosenzweig is a former federal prosecutor and served in the Department of Homeland Security, and he joins the program to discuss. 

Also on today's show: author Aaron Stark (I Would Have Been a School Shooter...), now a mental health advocate, provides a unique perspective on America's gun violence epidemic; Tikhon Dzyadko, the Editor-in-Chief TV Rain -- Russia's last independent TV station.
