When the President Makes You an Enemy: Miles Taylor on Speaking Truth to Power

Host Reed Galen is joined by Miles Taylor, national security expert, New York Times best-selling author, and former Chief of Staff at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. They discuss what it’s like when the President of the United States decides you’re the enemy. Taylor shares his personal experience standing up to Donald Trump’s chaos and revenge politics, and how that decision changed his life forever. They talk about the real stakes of telling the truth in Washington, the threats and intimidation that come from the top, and why resistance is both necessary and deeply costly. Plus, the difference between unconstitutional and anti-constitutional and how our nation must respond to this moment’s dangerous tipping point.
