Since we last spoke with John Nichols of The Nation a lot has happened as new questions have emerged about a 2016 meeting at Trump Towers, talks of impeachment have grown and more. John returns to the show today to talk all about these issues and whole lot more, John is The Nation’s national-affairs correspondent, a contributing writer for The Progressive and In These Times and the associate editor of The Capital Times, the daily newspaper in Madison, Wisconsin.
