Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, New York Attorney General Letitia James, and Steve Bannon are making headlines this week.

In this sample from the CAFE Insider podcast, Preet and Joyce break down a Michigan jury’s acquittal of two men charged with conspiring to kidnap Governor Whitmer in 2020.

In the full episode, Preet and Joyce discuss: 

• The court filing in which Attorney General James asked a judge to hold Donald Trump in contempt for failing to provide documents in her investigation into Trump’s business dealings;
• A federal judge’s decision to preclude Bannon from arguing at his contempt of Congress criminal trial that he was following the advice of his lawyer when he failed to comply with a January 6th Committee subpoena; and 
• The utility of a criminal referral from the January 6th Committee to DOJ.
