Inside Trump’s DOJ Power Play & the Future of Special Counsels

When the Department of Justice has to investigate politically
sensitive matters, those investigations are typically handled by
outside prosecutors known as Special Counsels: independent
investigators given the freedom to unearth the dirtiest dirt
against executive branch officials, including the president.
Kara speaks with CNN senior legal analyst, former prosecutor, and
best-selling author Elie Honig about his latest book, When You Come
at the King: Inside DOJ’s Pursuit of the President, from Nixon to
Trump. They discuss the history of the DOJ’s independent
investigations, the Trump administration’s current (and mostly
successful) attempts to weaponize the DOJ, the Supreme Court’s
presidential immunity ruling, and recommendations for fixing the
system. Want to see Kara and Scott Galloway live during the Pivot
