Congress, Congress, and More Congress

The lengthy August recess has come to a close, and Congress is back.

Molly Reynolds and Margaret Taylor sat down with Benjamin Wittes to talk about it all. They talked about what we should call the impeachment "whatever-it-is" that the House Judiciary Committee is doing, who will be forced to testify, what courts are going to rule and when, and whether any normal congressional business will get done.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/lawfare.
