Former Homeland Security chief on protecting U.S. democracy

Season 2025 Episode 254 | 7m 19s

"American democracy is under threat" was the starting point for a task force assembled by the American Bar Association two years ago.

Former Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson, who helped lead the initiative, joins Amna Nawaz to discuss the task force's findings.
