All presidents have legal issues. Some have more than others. A weekly conversation about the law, executive power, and all the presidents' lawyers, good and bad.
The end of the road, for now
November 24, 2021 • It's been more than three years since Josh Barro and Ken White started All The President's Lawyers (the first name of this show) to explore the legal problems of then-President Donald Trump, and wow, did he have legal problems.
Summer's over

Guilty. Appealing. Talking. Referred for contempt

It’s been more than three years since Josh Barro and Ken White started All The President’s Lawyers (the first name of this show) to explore the legal problems of then-President Donald Trump, and wow, did he have legal problems.
