Stay Tuned with Preet

• Who Gets To Rewrite History? (with Jill Lepore)

  Is any historical decision in America truly settled? This week, historian, Harvard law professor, and The New Yorker staff writer, Jill Lepore, joins Preet Bharara to discuss the intersection between history and the law, how often laws should evolve, and why Lepore thinks the Constitution should be easier to amend. Then, Preet answers your questions on whether President Trump accidentally pardoned the January 6th pipe bomber, and what the recent grand jury decision means for the case against NY AG Letitia James. In the bonus for Insiders, Preet and Lepore chat about her reporting on the No Kings movement, whether rallies can still make a difference, and the lines she draws as a journalist in a political moment.

  What happens to a free press when a president takes steps that could discourage critical coverage? This week on the Insider podcast, Preet is joined by Erwin Chemerinsky, constitutional law expert and Dean of the UC Berkeley School of Law, while Joyce is out.

• The Long Game

  This week, we are sharing the latest episode of a new weekly national security and foreign policy podcast: The Long Game, hosted by Jake Sullivan and Jon Finer.   Jake and Jon discuss MBS’s visit to the White House and what Saudi Arabia walked away with after meeting with Trump. A major corruption scandal inside Zelensky’s government just as Washington pushes for a new peace plan for Ukraine. And a tabletop exercise mapping the risks of shifting thousands of national-security personnel away from counterterrorism, cyber, and sanctions work and into immigration enforcement, and what those trade-offs mean for America’s ability to respond to real threats.  You can listen to The Long Game on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and other listening apps.
