Tom Nichols is a staff writer at The Atlantic and a former professor of national security at the US Naval War College. He joins Preet to discuss Donald Trump’s third presidential campaign, the state of Russia’s war in Ukraine, and the real meaning of terms that are often thrown around in our political discourse, including “fascism” and “socialism.”
Plus, Special Counsel John Durham finally releases his report on the FBI’s Russia investigation.
