In this eye-opening episode of the Vlogging Pod, explore how recent actions by the U.S. administration and its legal maneuverings are shifting the power dynamics in Washington. Discover how the Justice Department’s role is evolving from neutral enforcer to a potential tool of dominance aimed at political dissent, under the apparent protection of presidential immunity.

We delve into the precarious situation facing U.S. senators, some of whom stand accused not out of justice, but due to a lack of unwavering loyalty to the current administration. Examine the critical role of the Senate and Supreme Court in maintaining democratic balance, and how inaction may lead to an unchecked power grab, as well as the erosion of democratic norms. Tune in to understand why the onus is now on those in power to take a stand for accountability.
