The discussion also touches on debates surrounding birthright citizenship, security clearances, federal government restructuring, government efficiency proposals (including those discussed by Elon Musk), and education policy reform.Additionally, Dershowitz explores broader questions about the judiciary’s role, government accountability, and how legal interpretations shift over time.

Lack of preparedness. Forestry mismanagement. Water mis-prioritization. And political failures at the highest levels...Jillian Michaels unpacks the latest wildfire catastrophe in Los Angeles with two powerhouse journalists - Michael Shellenberger and Ana Kasparian. What or who caused these fires and could this unmitigated disaster have been mitigated?

Mismanaged evacuation orders led to gridlock, forcing terrified residents to flee on foot while meter maids continued writing parking tickets just miles away. Fire department budgets were slashed. Crucial bills, designed to enable life-saving prescribed burns, were vetoed by Governor Gavin Newsom. And Mayor Karen Bass focused on optics as critical infrastructure collapsed. Negligence? Corruption? It’s time to find out. In this show we’re tearing apart the political and systemic failures that created a catastrophic inferno. This is about more than Los Angeles—this is a warning for every community grappling with leadership unfit to manage crisis.Follow Jillian on IG: @JillianMichaelsDon’t forget to subscribe to the podcast for free wherever you're listening or by using this link: https://bit.ly/KeepingItRealwithJillianMichaelsWatch Keeping It Real on YouTube: https://bit.ly/KeepingItRealwithJillianMichaels Learn more about your ad choices.
