I can’t think of a better guest for today’s episode than my good friend Norm Eisen. And when I say good friend, I mean it. This man believed in me when many did not. He has encouraged me since the beginning of this journey to take a stand and continue to tell the truth… which makes perfect sense because Norm is a senior fellow in Governance Studies at Brookings and an expert on law, ethics, and anti-corruption. He was also President Obama’s “Ethics Czar” and Ambassador to the Czech Republic. Eisen’s reports and articles for the Brookings Institute and elsewhere have definitively made the case for why Trump and his band of criminal conspiracists represent a clear and present danger to democracy. Eisen is a regular Legal Analyst on CNN and the founder and executive chair of “States United Democracy Center”, a nonpartisan organization advancing free, fair, and secure elections. Few have Eisen’s understanding of Trump’s legal trials and travails.If you want to take the next step in improving your health, go to https://lumen.me/COHEN to get 15% off your Lumen today!
