About this episode

During a contentious House Judiciary Committee hearing, Attorney General Merrick Garland forcefully pushed back against accusations from congressional Republicans that the Justice Department has shown political bias in its investigations into Hunter Biden and former President Trump. Garland told committee members he’s “not the president’s lawyer” nor “Congress’s prosecutor.” Democratic Rep. Ted Lieu took part in the hearing. He tells AC360 if he thinks Garland pushed back hard enough on the allegations of political bias. Plus, since 2010 chef José Andrés and his World Central Kitchen team have been on the frontlines of disasters around the world. They've served over 300 million meals in more than 30 countries. Chef Andrés joins AC360 to discuss “The World Central Kitchen Cookbook: Feeding Humanity, Feeding Hope.”
