Join us for a look back at history that might tell us something about the present. Major sits down with author and historian H.W. Brands, author of the new book "America First: Roosevelt vs. Lindbergh in the Shadow of War." What does the pre-World War II period and historical figures like Charles Lindbergh mean for foreign policy today?
Episode 4
Donald Trump swept into office this week with a deluge of executive actions aimed at reshaping the federal government in his image. The bounds of presidential power have evolved over the country's nearly 250 year history and each occupant of the office has exercised authority differently, often reflecting the times in which they governed.. This week, Major speaks with University of Chicago law professor Eric Posner about presidential power and its limits. Join us….and stick around until the end for a special message from Major.
