Ezra Klein joins Zack, Jenn, and Alex in a crossover episode with Worldly on
Robert Mueller’s just-released report. They explain the special counsel's main
findings on collusion with Russian election interference and on obstruction of
justice and why they aren’t good for Trump. Then they zoom out and talk about
what this whole episode reveals about the health of American democracy and how
this gives a green light for Russia and other authoritarian powers to
intervene in future US elections. Given how important this report is, and how
early they got up to cover it, your intrepid hosts were too tired for jokes
this week — sorry.
