Part One: Matt Ford is a staff writer at The New Republic. He joins us to talk about the Mueller investigation, the Kavanaugh hearings, and the lingering bad odor of the Clarence Thomas hearings.

Part Two: Eight states have launched investigations into clerical abuse since the Pennsylvania report.

More recently, he’s been representing victims of abuse at elite prep schools.
